WSJ: Scholar Warns Iran's Ahmadinejad May Have 'Cataclysmic Events' In Mind For August 22


In a WALL STREET JOURNAL op-ed Tuesday, Princeton's Bernard Lewis writes: "There is a radical difference between the Islamic Republic of Iran and other governments with nuclear weapons. This difference is expressed in what can only be described as the apocalyptic worldview of Iran's present rulers."


"In Islam as in Judaism and Christianity, there are certain beliefs concerning the cosmic struggle at the end of time -- Gog and Magog, anti-Christ, Armageddon, and for Shiite Muslims, the long awaited return of the Hidden Imam, ending in the final victory of the forces of good over evil, however these may be defined."


President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad "and his followers clearly believe that this time is now, and that the terminal struggle has already begun and is indeed well advanced. It may even have a date, indicated by several references by the Iranian president to giving his final answer to the US about nuclear development by Aug. 22," which this year corresponds "to the 27th day of the month of Rajab of the year 1427. This, by tradition, is the night when many Muslims commemorate the night flight of the prophet Muhammad on the winged horse Buraq, first to 'the farthest mosque,' usually identified with Jerusalem, and then to heaven and back (c.f., Koran XVII.1).


"This might well be deemed an appropriate date for the apocalyptic ending of Israel and if necessary of the world. It is far from certain that Mr. Ahmadinejad plans any such cataclysmic events precisely for Aug. 22. But it would be wise to bear the possibility in mind."

I just now noticed that this article was already discussed earlier. Here is my response to it at http://www.christian...s...ost&p=78163

Timing of this war is critical to understanding the Bible prophecy...

Shekel stated this in his Bible Code:

Quote

6.) The first flag reads: "We will besiege a banner/flag and their innocent One!" And while this refers to the besiegement of Messiah at the cross just like Babylon was surrounded by the Medes and the Persians the night this code was written on the palace wall and the king slain, it seems to me that in light of this sign about the Red Cross perhaps this is also a prophecy of an upcoming besiegement of Jerusalem by her enemies.

Yeshua (Jesus) said:

"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up; that whosoever believeth may in him have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life." (John 3:14-16).

http://www.bible-cod...-tet-atbash.htm

I just noticed the date of Tammuz 17th for the war myself. I was kind of slow on this one! I was surprised to find out that onetigerroo was ahead of me! (As was one other who emailed me). Interestingly, July 12-15 on the 360 calendar is Av 7-10, which are the anniversaries of the fall of Jerusalem according to Jeremiah, 2Kings, and Jewish tradition (for Av 9).

Notice what was also said on July 2 (10 days before the kidnapping) that (as quoting back to the Mene, Tekel, Peres, Bible Code::

"Peres:
"...He perished, he refused the banner/flag!
(Israel 'perishes' by continuing to "refuse the flag" of the snake on the cross, which symbolizes the Messiah who suffered the 'curse' in their stead, )
O' accursed day! The day that He was inflicted with curses, having been numbered.
They put God to the test!..."

If you go back to the source of the quote on July 2, this is what it says:

("Peres" can mean 'divided' or a coin called a 'half-mina,' worth 30 [or 25 shekels]---the price of Jesus' betrayal by Judas Iscariot. Or it can mean "Persia," the kingdom of the east that sacked Babylon.)

It is interesting to me that "Peres" can mean Persia, which is modern Iran, the nation financing the Hezbollah in this current war/skirmish with Israel. Thus, the picture bible code names both major parties in this war.

Moreover, the tet-nun-flag bible code had much to do with "the serpent changed into a rod", which happened to Moses at his call and then again before Pharaoh half-a-year later. The actual dates were 1447 and 1446 BC. However, in Jewish tradition they date these rather (incorrectly) as 1314 and 1313 BC.

(1313 BC), July 13, 2006 of the war equals "The Accursed Day!"

I wrote an article on the internet concerning the significance of these traditional dates many years ago. (You can find all my articles on this subject by searching for ["1313 BC" "AD 1313"] on Goggle. See http://www.bible-cod...esus-codes.html ). Anyway --- getting to the point --- for those familiar with my sites, each day also represents a symbolic year of time { http://www.1260-1290...le-prophecy.htm }, and so it happens that July 12, 2006 (when the skirmish began) represented the year 1314 (or 2707), and thus July 13 (when the war began), as 1313 BC (or 2708).

Notice the emphasis on the number "13" in July 13 and 1313. 1313 BC was the year Israel was given the law, and Tammuz 17 is when it was literally broken by Moses against the Mountain. The number 13 is the number of curse: "Cursed is he who does not obey everything written in the law to do it."

The code read:

"O Peres, (Persia/Iran) "...He perished, he refused the banner/flag!
(Israel 'perishes' by continuing to "refuse the flag" of the snake on the cross, which symbolizes the Messiah who suffered the 'curse' in their stead, )

O' accursed day! The day that He was inflicted with curses, having been numbered.

They put God to the test!..."


Speaking of "numbered", can you think of a better day ("O accursed day!") to represent this phrase: "O' accursed day! The day that He was inflicted with curses, having been numbered," other than on Tammuz 17 (July 13, 2006), on a day (July 13, 2006 only) that symbolically represents the year 1313 BC, the traditional year when the law was broken, coincidentally, on Tammuz 17th! (Thus, the literal day and the symbolic year overlap each other. An amazing coincidence/providence! Both the day and its symbolic year point to each other. Even the actual date of 1446 BC is 1150 x 3 years ago exactly as per Daniel 8. "1150" is half 2300. The Mene-tekel-code is all about the giving of the law as well, written with the finger of God. The bible code was discoverd 6 years ago on Pentecost, the anniversary of the giving of the law! http://www.bible-cod...ophecy-code.htm )

Remember that the above about "the accursed day" was quoted on the net 11 days before "the accursed day!" Moreover, the code itself reads, "I will give them a sign!"

And, as said, 1313 (and 1312) is when Moses' snake swallowed up those of Pharaoh's in accord with the nun-tet (flag) bible code wherein I said, (by the Spirit): (And this code is not to my glory, but to His. I mention these things so that others may believe His signs and give Him glory and take His warnings seriously.)

"The first flag reads: "We will besiege a banner/flag and their innocent One!" And while this refers to the besiegement of Messiah at the cross just like Babylon was surrounded by the Medes and the Persians the night this code was written on the palace wall and the king slain, it seems to me that in light of this sign about the Red Cross perhaps this is also a prophecy of an upcoming besiegement of Jerusalem by her enemies." http://www.bible-cod...-tet-atbash.htm

Moreover, the name of the military operation against the Hezbollah is, "A Just Reward." I find this interesting given what the rest of the code reads. Both "justice" and "reward" are fitting words for this code of a flag with money on it that speaks about injustice toward Christ that man might be made just.

The title reads:

His execution!

The pole with its flag of a cross within a coin, reads:

"A banner (or, flag/wonder/pole) and their innocent One will we besiege!"
(or, '...we will go around.')

Reading around the 'coin' in both directions:

"A dieing man redeemed them!
You will purchase them!
You have declared them exempt from punishment!"

=============

What does it all mean?

The sign of the flag-code and this current conflict is a warning of a much greater war that is to come. This may be the beginning of that one, or (more likely) it is a warning to Israel of the big war to come between Russia/Iran (Ezekiel 38), etc., against Israel "for rejecting the banner of the cross!" All are brought into judgement over the enormity of this one crime, including Israel, and God is warning of the "just reward" for rejecting the snake on the pole, that is, the message of the cross, of one who became a curse (recall '13' and 'snake') for us!

Someone sent me the following email. I respond to it immediately after. It relates to the above article. Keep in mind that I don't sense that something is going to happen, but the timing is so uncanny that I thought I should at least say something.

Hi Dean a one page article from Stan Deo 's site regarding Iran.
http://www.standeyo....2.doomsday.html

Does this date come into your calendar of events.

God protect and guide you and your family,
God bless,
xxx.
========================

(My response to the above email)

Yes, the day represents the symbolic date of 1273 BC, when, according to Jewish tradition Joshua entered the Promised land and the the walls of Jericho fell. The conquest began.

1273 BC is 40 years after the exodus in 1313 BC (according to Jewish tradition only). See http://www.christian...s...ost&p=72492
for article about 1313 BC and Iran. And this 40 years, therefore, corresponds to the 40 days of the war from July 13 to Aug. 22, 2006 on the symbolic day/year grid that I so often talk about.

All this does not mean that something definitely is going to happen. It does show that the day is marked for a possible event however. God can and likely will block this from happening. We should pray to that end.

Thanks for the email!

God has had me and my fellow sisters in Christ in Joshua and spoke to us this week telling us it is time to cross over.

The entire church is about to go to war.

This may sound stupid , but what kind of war , and against whom ?

Going back to Psalm 83 Loey ........

Psalm 84 begins with Succoth/tabernacles .

Does that give us a time-frame ?

verse 3 .........'consulted against thy hidden ones ' .....the Psalm was hidden in an Irish bog .....earth is a simile for the human form .......clues here as to who the hidden ones might be .......

It is important to remember where Psalm 83 ends .........

Dolphin-class submarine
HAIFA, Israel – German engineers the past few weeks have been in Israel working to improve three advanced, nuclear capable attack submarines it provided the Jewish state last year, security sources tell the Galil Report.

Many here have estimated the vessels can be used both as a strategic, second-strike nuclear deterrent or for conventional use during any large-scale confrontation.

Military officials say the submarines are not needed for Israel's current campaign in Lebanon. The officials said Israel recently has discussed with foreign governments travel and refueling routes so the submarines can reach the Persian Gulf – within firing distance of Iran.

The submarines usually patrol in the Indian Ocean. But the Galil Report has learned one is currently stationed in the Mediterranean off the coast of Haifa and another off the coast of Lebanon. Both submarines are being serviced. The Galil Report was not provided with the location of the third submarine.

The submarines are being fitted by German engineers with larger fuel tanks, security sources said. They said the submarines also are being fixed to carry larger torpedo tubes. Israel already had the submarines redesigned once in the past. Four of the 10 torpedo tubes were made to carry a 650 mm tube size, surpassing the nearly universal 533 mm diameter. Security sources said the submarine enhancements were not related to any specific military agenda. But they said Israel has discussed travel routes with foreign governments for the submarines to reach the Persian Gulf, within firing distance of Iran.

They said Egypt has denied Israel the ability to travel through the Suez Canal, but the Jewish state through diplomatic channels has secured the ability to travel to the Gulf via the Mediterranean. Coastal Eritrea had agreed to allow Israel to refuel at its port, which is still controlled by the Ethiopian army, sources told the Galil Report. Still, Israel is playing it safe by having the submarines' fuel capacity enlarged.

Today's Galil Report details the upgrades being made to Israel's already enhanced SSK Dolphin-class submarines and outlines diplomatic negotiations to ensure the vessels can travel toward the direction of the Iranian coast.

The submarines are being fitted by German engineers with larger fuel tanks, security sources said. They said the submarines also are being fixed to carry larger torpedo tubes. Israel already had the submarines redesigned once in the past. Four of the 10 torpedo tubes were made to carry a 650 mm tube size, surpassing the nearly universal 533 mm diameter. Security sources said the submarine enhancements were not related to any specific military agenda. But they said Israel has discussed travel routes with foreign governments for the submarines to reach the Persian Gulf, within firing distance of Iran.

They said Egypt has denied Israel the ability to travel through the Suez Canal, but the Jewish state through diplomatic channels has secured the ability to travel to the Gulf via the Mediterranean. Coastal Eritrea had agreed to allow Israel to refuel at its port, which is still controlled by the Ethiopian army, sources told the Galil Report. Still, Israel is playing it safe by having the submarines' fuel capacity enlarged.

Today's Galil Report details the upgrades being made to Israel's already enhanced SSK Dolphin-class submarines and outlines diplomatic negotiations to ensure the vessels can travel toward the direction of the Iranian coast.
