7 thunders of the Book of Revelation

Millions of Evangelical Christians Want to Start WWIII to Speed the �Second Coming� � 
Neocons are Using Religion to Rile Them Up to Justify War Against Iran

By Washington's Blog

................. The Founding Fathers weren�t particularly anti-Islam.

But millions of Americans believe that Christ will not come again until Israel wipes out its competitors and there is widespread war in the Middle East. Some of these folks want to start a huge fire of war and death and destruction, so that Jesus comes quickly.

According to French President Chirac, Bush told him that the Iraq war was needed to bring on the apocalypse:

In Genesis and Ezekiel Gog and Magog are forces of the Apocalypse who are prophesied to come out of the north and destroy Israel unless stopped. The Book of Revelation took up the Old Testament prophesy:

�And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.�

Bush believed the time had now come for that battle, telling Chirac:

�This confrontation is willed by God, who wants to use this conflict to erase his people�s enemies before a New Age begins��

There can be little doubt now that President Bush�s reason for launching the war in Iraq was, for him, fundamentally religious. He was driven by his belief that the attack on Saddam�s Iraq was the fulfilment of a Biblical prophesy in which he had been chosen to serve as the instrument of the Lord.

And British Prime Minister Tony Blair long-time mentor, advisor and confidante said:

�Tony�s Christian faith is part of him, down to his cotton socks. He believed strongly at the time, that intervention in Kosovo, Sierra Leone � Iraq too � was all part of the Christian battle; good should triumph over evil, making lives better.�

Mr Burton, who was often described as Mr Blair�s mentor, says that his religion gave him a �total belief in what�s right and what�s wrong�, leading him to see the so-called War on Terror as �a moral cause��

Anti-war campaigners criticised remarks Mr Blair made in 2006, suggesting that the decision to go to war in Iraq would ultimately be judged by God.

Bill Moyers reports that the organization Christians United for Israel � led by highly-influential Pastor John C. Hagee � is a universal call to all Christians to help factions in Israel fund the Jewish settlements, throw out all the Palestinians and lobby for a pre-emptive invasion of Iran. All to bring Russia into a war against us causing World War III followed by Armageddon, the Second Coming and The Rapture. See this and this.

This all revolves around what is called Dispensationalism. So popular is Dispensationalism that Tim LaHaye�s Left Behind series has sold 65 million copies.

Dispensationalists include the following mega-pastors and their churches:

• Jerry Falwell

• Pat Robertson

• Billy Graham

They are supported by politicians such as:

• Newt Gingrich

• Joseph Lieberman

• John McCain

• Texas Senator John Cronyn

• Former House Minority Whip Roy Blunt

• Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay

• And others

Dr. Timothy Webber � an evangelical Christian who has served as a teacher of church history and the history of American religion at Denver Seminary and Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Vice-President at Northern Baptist Theological Seminary in Lombard, IL, and President of Memphis Theological Seminary in Tennessee � notes:

In a recent Time/CNN poll, more than one-third of Americans said that since the terrorist attacks of 9/11, they have been thinking more about how current events might be leading to the end of the world.

While only 36 percent of all Americans believe that the Bible is God�s Word and should be taken literally, 59 percent say they believe that events predicted in the Book of Revelation will come to pass. Almost one out of four Americans believes that 9/11 was predicted in the Bible, and nearly one in five believes that he or she will live long enough to see the end of the world. Even more significant for this study,over one-third of those Americans who support Israel report that they do so because they believe the Bible teaches that the Jews must possess their own country in the Holy Land before Jesus can return.

Millions of Americans believe that the Bible predicts the future and that we are living in the last days. Their beliefs are rooted in dispensationalism, a particular way of understanding the Bible�s prophetic passages, especially those in Daniel and Ezekiel in the Old Testament and the Book of Revelation in the New Testament. They make up about one-third of America�s 40 or 50 million evangelical Christians and believe that the nation of Israel will play a central role in the unfolding of end-times events. In the last part of the 20th century, dispensationalist evangelicals become Israel�s best friends-an alliance that has made a serious geopolitical difference.

NASA has released a new atlas and catalog of the entire infrared sky with more than a half billion stars and galaxies many of which have never been seen before.
Scientists used the images taken by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission, which was launched in 2009.
"Today, WISE delivers the fruit of 14 years of effort to the astronomical community," said Edward Wright, WISE principal investigator at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
WISE mapped the entire sky in 2010 and collected more than 2.7 million images that provided scientists with more than 15 trillion bytes of data.
Astronomers analyzed the data and then combined them into an atlas of more than 18,000 images and a catalog of the properties of more than 560 million individual objects.
The new observations have helped astronomers and scientists discover a poll of near-Earth asteroids, new classes of stars as well as the first known "Trojan" asteroid.
"With the release of the all-sky catalog and atlas, WISE joins the pantheon of great sky surveys that have led to many remarkable discoveries about the universe," said lead WISE data processing expert Roc Cutri.
"It will be exciting and rewarding to see the innovative ways the science and educational communities will use WISE in their studies now that they have the data at their fingertips."
Scientists have so far published about 100 study papers on the results of the new observations.

Then the Roman Christian (the people of the Book) under Heracles defeated the Persian Empire in March 628.

Dangers ahead: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2008/oct/29/usa-bush-syria-elections Clip: However we are meant to read it, the attack on Syria looks a lot like a parting shot from Bush, an end-of-the-movie reminder of what this long and bloody saga has been about. A small operation, causing eight deaths, it nevertheless captures much of the Bush ethos that has ruled the globe these past eight years. It was unilateral; it trampled on state sovereignty; and it relied on force as a first, not last, resort. As a souvenir of the Bush era, it would be hard to top. But it may not be the final act. For we have not yet entered the twilight zone proper. That will come only when polls close next Tuesday. When the transition begins, all kinds of surprises are possible. ----------------------------- tnc
