What about 2012?
There is a lot of chatter and interest in 2012 as being the date for the end of the world. This thinking has arisen from the ancient traditions of various cultures. The most famous of those traditions is the Mayan calendar, which predicts “the world will end” on Dec 21, 2012. Should this prediction be taken seriously and if so how does this prediction fit into Biblical prophecy? First let’s look more closely at the prediction. Here are a few quotes from various 2012 websites.
The Mayans believed the universal processes, like the 'breathing' of the galaxy, are cycles that never change. What changes is the consciousness of man that passes through it. Always in a process toward more perfection. Based on their observations, the Mayans predicted that from the initial date of the start of their civilization, 4 Ahau, 8 Cumku which is 3113 B.C., after one cycle being completed 5,125 years in their future, December 21st, 2012. The Sun, having received a powerful ray of synchronizing light from the center of the galaxy, would change its polarity which would produce a great cosmic event that would propel human kind to be ready to cross into a new era, The Golden Age. It is after this, that the Mayans say we will be ready to go through the door that was left by them, transforming our civilization based on fear to a vibration much higher in harmony. http://www.2012warning.com/mayan-prophecy-2012.htm
Although Dec 21, 2012 is the date of the end of the age in the Mayan calendar it does not mean anything spectacular is going to happen on that exact date. The Mayan elders say the calendar foretells Earth changes and changes in consciousness AND that they occur within a seven-year period of time around 2012…What is the biggest change in this seven years? A magnetic pole shift followed shortly by a physical pole shift. A physical pole shift is what destroyed Atlantis 13,000 years ago. Similarly, this would be a “big deal” today. Certainly it would qualify as Yogananda’s “you have no idea what a catastrophe is coming” event. The Hopis are joining with other indigenous peoples in Arizona in April 2009 to perform a sacred welcoming ceremony for our space ancestors. http://www.december212012.com/articles/mayan/2012_From_the_Mayan_Elders_Themselves.htm
21.12.2012. End of time. End of the world. The end of Mayan Long Count. The apocalypse. The end of Kali Yuga. The winter solstice 2012 is not just any solstice but the solstice of all solstices. It is the Great Solstice - a solstice of the precessional or Platonic year…The winter sun 2012 ushers into 72 days of upheavals in which the chaos following a destruction of the old order will reign before the new order is firmly set in place…Apocalyptic 42-day passage of earth though a black hole of time that will start with winter sun of 2012 requires the clarity and justice of all life on earth…It is the end of the world, as we know it. Earth will tremble, shake and rip open along all its latent and patent faults. It will be scorched from below and from above. The remaining ashes, which are not washed away by the churning seas, will be scattered in all directions by the four winds. Earth will turn inside out and upside down. The old lands will sink below and the new lands will rise above. It has been done many times before and it will be done yet again on 21.12.2012…One cannot fail to see clearly that such an alignment spells the end of the present order of things on 21.12.2012 http://www.endoftime2012.com/
According to many earth legends, such beings are supposed to return regularly, at the beginning and end of each time cycle, the 13,000 year half-point of our solar system's 26,000 year zodiacal orbit around galaxy centre. Because of conditions on our galactic orbit, these 13,000 year intervals or "worlds", seem to be separated by cataclysmic upheaval. According to the "calendar in stone" of the Great Pyramid, which describes the so-called "Phoenix Cycle" of our galactic orbit, the present time period ends (converted to our present calendar) in the year 2012 AD. http://www.rense.com/ufo5/undergiza.htm
There are various interpretations regarding the meaning of the 2012 date but as you see most agree that the old world will end and a new world will begin. Some also believe that around that date there will be many physical distresses upon the earth. Some even believe aliens, which we know to be demons, will return. Coinciding with the predictions from ancient cultures regarding 2012 are the predictions regarding Nibiru or planet x. Here is a sampling of some of the various information regarding the supposed planet x.
I contend that there's simply too much evidence that those who could and probably do know are preparing for a visit from Nibiru or Planet X in 2012 and most importantly February 21, 2013 when Nibiru will be at it's closest distance from the sun (2.85 AU). Worst of all that scenario puts planet earth between this brown dwarf and the Sun There will be amazing sprites and other such catastrophic events too numerous to count.
An old Sumerian prophecy about the next time Nibiru passes: The great planet At his appearance, dark red The Heavens he divides in half And stands as Nibiru. If the Ram by Jupiter will be entered When Venus conjuncts the Moon, The watch will come to an end.Woes, trouble, confusion, & bad things will occur in the lands. People will sell their children for money; The ruler of Iran will be surrounded in his palace; There will follow the destruction of Iran & its people. Jupiter enters Aries on Jan. 26th of 2011; the Moon conjuncts Venus in Sagittarius a few days later. http://2012predictions.org/nibiru-2012-t67-10.html
Nibiru will first be seen by May 2009 as a faint reddish object. It will be moving up from below Earths Orbit. This means that until late 2009, the only way to see it is from a very southern location of Earth. By May of 2011, naked eye viewing by everyone. In December 2012 Nibiru will pass through the ecliptic plane, seen as bright star & will look as a 2nd sun around the size of our moon. Earthquakes and very bad weather will take place! The worst however comes about by February 2013, Earth moves between Nibiru and the sun. Pole shifting/Planetary tilt takes place! Great Earthquakes changes, Huge Mega Earthquakes and Mega Tsunamis worldwide! Then by July 2014, Nibiru no longer effects our world and moves on and away from our part of the galaxy. NASA knew about Nibiru and as not to panic the people made the decision to withhold the truth of this! http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message670651/pg1
In responding to these ideas from a Biblical perspective we must realize that the Mayan religion was satanic and that their prediction most likely had satanic origins. Therefore, as all satanic predictions go, some may be true and some may be false. Also the information regarding Nibiru or planet x and the predicted calamities and pole shift at this point in time is hard to prove one way or the other. Though let me mention that I believe there was a pole shift when Jesus was crucified on the cross, that is why the sun went down at 12 and came up at 3. http://thecomingepiphany.com/BookArticles/datecruc.htm
Are these predictions correct, will the world end in 2012? Most Christians consider the end of the world to regard the return of Jesus Christ to the earth at Armageddon. For the world to end in 2012 or the return of Christ at Armageddon to occur in 2012, that would have required the 70th Week to have begun in 2006, which did not occur. Thus we can say that the Biblical "end of the world" will not occur in 2012.
Hey Mr. Frederick thanks so much for providing your excellent book, and this site!
ReplyDeletei have learned a lot in addition to my own research and you really help to connect more dots!
keep it up! god bless!
Thank you for your comment and encouraging words. I praise God that he counted me worthy to be used by Him.
ReplyDeleteMay God give unto us a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. Eph 1:17
Good stuff. I agree with the 2016 return, not so much about the rapture at the 6th seal.
ReplyDeleteI also used to believe in the theory of a 7 year tribulation period. Daniel 9 was about Jesus, He confirmed the covenant during the 63rd week of His ministry. The 70th week was completed during Pentecost. Honestly, Revelation and Daniel speak about 3.5 years, not 7. Daniel 9:27 is misunderstood and most likely has 2 or 3 layers due to the meaning of 70 weeks.
Daniel 9:27 says nothing about antichrist, peace treaty or Israel.
Peace.

ReplyDeleteTHX for your input. The rapture occurs just before God's wrath is poured out. Scripture tells us that His wrath starts at the sixth seal just after the rapture.
The 70th week is 7 years of 360 days each. Not a week of 7 days. There are many chronological occurences that confirm this that I detail in The Coming Eiphany.
It is impossible for the events of Revelation to be all put within 3.5 years. I agree that most of the events occur during the last 3.5 but not all.
We know the antichrist rules the world for the last 3.5 years. His rule is preceeded by the first 4 seals which include the arising of the New World Order, WWIII, Economic collapse, and 1/4 of world's population killed. These will happen first then the antichrist will come on the scene and take over for the last 3.5 years.
It is also impossible for the seals, trumpets, and vials to run concurrently for the trumpets happen after the seals--that is when the earth and sea are hurt.
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
