I was surfing the net today and happened to come across the Heresy Watch blog. Even though the blog administrator is Jewish - and therefore must see everything in the Bible from the perspective of a Jewish stance (he cannot help this biased attitude) as such, I never expected to find anything of real value that related to the end times Bible prophecy. That is not intended as an anti-Semitic statement.
However, I was more than pleasantly surprised to find this fascinating article on the uncovering of bones of giants providing proof positive of the existence the ancient "Nephilim".
"This astounding photograph is one of a series and is from a recent archaeological discovery in Greece; this totally unexpected find furnishes proof of the existence of "Nephilim".
Nephilim is the word used to describe the giants spoken of in Biblical times by Enoch as well as the giant that David fought against in the personage of Goliath.
It is generally believed that most of these giants came about when the fallen angels had union with earthly women.
Genesis Chapter 6 Verse 4
There were giants on earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bear children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown."
Numbers Chapter 13, Verse 33"And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight."
Providing the photograph is not faked the evidence presented above proves without any doubt whatsoever the accuracy of the Bible as a lesson in history so much so that it is just as applicable today just as it was in ancient times – and that the Bible is not just a book of spirituality.
The circumstance of giant skeletons being unearthed substantiates what is written in the Bible that there were giants alive and roaming the earth hundreds/perhaps thousands of years ago and proves proof positive of the validity of the Bible showing that there can be no doubts whatsoever that it is the word of God.
For those that are unsaved the future does not look very rosy at all?
But one still has to face up to the realities of what is happening in the daily news broadcasts relative to the prophecies of the Bible, and from those news broadcasts I am able to determine that since the introduction and fulfillment of a position for a full time president of the E.U. events are now moving at an alarming rate towards the remainder of what has been prophesied.
Although many may dispute this I believe that by this appointment we may have seen the revealing of the Antichrist -- and he is Herman Van Rompuy.
At hand, we also have the news there is going to be a complete global financial collapse as early as the middle of this year. (see the below formatted article) A money crash would have to be a precursor to a cashless society and the Mark of the Beast system for buying and selling.
Bob Chapman
First 6 months of 2010, Americans will continue to live in the 'unreality'…the period between July and October is when the financial fireworks will begin. The Fed will act unilaterally for its own survival irrespective of any political implications …(source is from insider at FED meetings). In the last quarter of the year we could even see Martial law, which is more likely for the first 6 months of 2011. The FDIC will collapse in September 2010. Commercial real estate is set to implode in 2010. Wall Street believes there is a 100% chance of crash in bond market, especially municipals sometime during 2010. The dollar will be devalued by the end of 2010.
Revelation Chapter 13, Verse 16 to 18
And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
There are other possible future events that also point to the end of the age
If there is to be another conference of Climate Change later on this year that results in the confirmation of a seven year treaty, (if that were to be confirmed by Herman Van Rompuy) then we would be witnessing the formation of a World Government and possibly the treaty of Daniel Chapter 9, verse 27?
More than likely that probable scenario could take place by the end of the year? Nonetheless, other Born again believers in Christ may well dispute this?
Daniel Chapter 9, Verse 27
And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
I have always been lead to believe that the aim of the Antichrist was global dominance. That being the case, one can remember that just as soon as he was appointed as the E.U. president Van Rompuy quite freely delivered a speech on the virtues and advantages of a World Government. Just a coincidence, I don’t think so? When I went to school 2+2 used to equal 4 and it still does!
Then we have the occurrences of aggression by North and South Korea that have been so prevalent on the Korean Peninsula which may lead to the outbreak of a Third World War? That scenario is panning out just as the U.S. based Cutting Edge Ministries have for so long been espousing.
Of the points mentioned above there is only one that we can be sure of we can be sure of and that is that the EU has appointed their leader. From that date (01st of January 2010) the EU is only going to last 42 months, or prophetically speaking, one hour .
The larger percentage of what I have mentioned above is possible scenarios only and cannot be guaranteed to come to pass -- However, there is still some food for thought there in the very least?
With their prophetic and uplifting messages, I remember years and years ago when I was a young Christian there were so many men on fire for the Lord, but where have all these “on fire for the Lord” men vanished to ,or has there been a Rapture of the Church that I have somehow missed?
There are some that are still alive and preaching but what has caused such a waning in their messages, it can’t be just old age catching up, or can it? Or is this fading of words of fire and wisdom atypical of what has been prophesied in the Bible to occur at the end of the age when we are told that Christians shall be neither hot nor cold and for that reason I will spue them out says the Lord?
Does any one out there in cyber-land have any thoughts or insights on this on this subject matter or is the fact of the pastors suddenly going silent just as en times events are about to unfold and that what was to be expected at the end of the Church Age? Are we about to enter into another middle ages, by the looks of things we are?
Revelation Chapter 3, Verse 16 16:
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
The news floating around the Internet is that there is going to be some sort of huge financial crash next year.
One can only imagine that it just may happen given the fact that Herman Van Rompuy has now ascended to his power base as the first ever full time president of the EU.
Van Rompuy has also been appointed to head the Economic Government of Europe while being put in charge of defence for the whole of the EU.
That being the case, if he were to see the finances of the world begin to crumble around him, Satan may well enter into him telling him that the only possible solution to the world’s woes would be to plunge the world into a catastrophic World War the likes of which the world has never ever witnessed before?
If Van Rompuy were to do that then there would be no doubts whatever that he is the Beast of Revelation.
This is only one possible scenario of what may just be around the corner but if that were to happen there would be no doubts at all that we would be witnessing the fulfilment of Bible prophecy right before our very eyes, but let us hope that it never ever does.
Below mentioned is a rather comprehensive list of so-called financial experts who have forecast a possible money crash, or depression, worse than the 1929 crash.

Gerald Celente
Terrorist attacks and the "Crash of 2010". 40% devaluation at first = the greatest depression, worse than the Great Depression.
Igor Panarin
In the summer of 1998, based on classified data about the state of the U.S. economy and society supplied to him by fellow FAPSI analysts, Panarin forecast the probable disintegration of the USA into six parts in 2010 (at the end of June – start of July 2010, as he specified on 10 December 2000
Neithercorps
Have projected that the third and final stage of the economic collapse will begin sometime in 2010. Barring some kind of financial miracle, or the complete dissolution of the Federal Reserve, a snowballing implosion should become visible by the end of this year. The behavior of the Fed, along with that of the IMF seems to suggest that they are preparing for a focused collapse, peaking within weeks or months instead of years, and the most certain fall of the dollar.

July and onward things get very strange. Revolution. Dollar dead by November 2010.
LEAP 20/202010 Outlook from a group of 25 European Economists with a 90% accuracy rating- We anticipate a sudden intensification of the crisis in the second half of 2010, caused by a double effect of a catching up of events which were temporarily « frozen » in the second half of 2009 and the impossibility of maintaining the palliative remedies of past years. There is a perfect (economic) storm coming within the global financial markets and inevitable pressure on interest rates in the U.S. The injection of zero-cost money into the Western banking system has failed to restart the economy. Despite zero-cost money, the system has stalled. It is slowly rolling over into the next big down wave, which in Elliott Wave terminology will be Super Cycle Wave Three, or in common language, "THE BIG ONE, WHERE WE ALL GO OVER THE FALLS TOGETHER."
Joseph Meyer
Forecasts on the economy. He sees the real estate market continuing to decline, and advised people to invest in precious metals and commodities, as well as keeping cash at home in a safe place in case of bank closures. The stock market, after peaking in March or April (around 10,850), will fall all the way down to somewhere between 2450 and 4125 during the next leg down.
Harry Dent (investor)
A very likely second crash by late 2010. The coming depression (starts around the summer of 2010). Dent sees the stock market–currently benefiting from upward momentum and peppier economic activity–headed for a very brief and pleasant run that could lift the Dow to the 10,700-11,500 range from its current level of about 10.090. But then, he sees the market running into a stone wall, which will be followed by a nasty stock market decline (starting in early March to late April) that could drive down the Dow later this year to 3,000-5,000, with his best guess about 3,800.
Richard Russell (Market Expert)
(from 2/3/10) says the bear market rally is in the process of breaking up and panic is on the way. He sees a full correction of the entire rise from the 2002 low of 7,286 to the bull market high of 14,164.53 set on October 9, 2007. The halfway level of retracement was 10,725. The total retracement was to 6,547.05 on March 9, 2009. He now sees the Dow falling to 7,286 and if that level does not hold, “I see it sinking to its 1980-82 area low of Dow 1,000.” The current action is the worst he has ever seen. (Bob Chapman says for Russell to make such a startling statement is unusual because he never cries wolf and is almost never wrong)
Niño Becerra (Professor of Economics)
Predicted in July 2007 that what was going to happen was that by mid 2010 there is going to be a crisis only comparable to the one in 1929. From October 2009 to May 2010 people will begin to see things are not working out the way the government thought. In May of 2010, the crisis starts with all its force and continues and strengthens throughout 2011. He accurately predicted the current recession and market crash to the month.
Lyndon Larouche
The crisis is accelerating and will become worse week by week until the whole system grinds into a collapse, likely sometime this year. And when it does, it will be the greatest collapse since the fall of the Roman Empire.
WALL STREET JOURNAL- (2/2010)
"You are witnessing a fundamental breakdown of the American dream, a systemic breakdown of our democracy and our capitalism, a breakdown driven by the blind insatiable greed of Wall Street: Dysfunctional government, insane markets, economy on the brink. Multiply that many times over and see a world in total disarray. Ignore it now, tomorrow will be too late."
Eric deCarbonnel
There is no precedence for the panic and chaos that will occur in 2010. The global food supply/demand picture has NEVER been so out of balance. The 2010 food crisis will rearrange economic, financial, and political order of the world, and those who aren’t prepared will suffer terrible losses…As the dollar loses most of its value, America's savings will be wiped out. The US service economy will disintegrate as consumer spending in real terms (ie: gold or other stable currencies) drops like a rock, bringing unemployment to levels exceeding the great depression. Public health services/programs will be cut back, as individuals will have no savings/credit/income to pay for medical care. Value of most investments will be wiped out. The US debt markets will freeze again, this time permanently. There will be no buyers except at the most drastic of firesale prices, and inflation will wipe away value before credit markets have any chance at recovery. The panic in 2010 will see the majority of derivatives end up worthless. Since global derivatives markets operate on the assumption of the continued stable value of the dollar and short term US debt, using derivatives to bet against the dollar is NOT a good idea. The panic in 2010 will see the majority of derivatives end up worthless. The dollar's collapse will rob US consumers of all purchasing power, and any investment depend on US consumption will lose most of its value.
Alpha-Omega Report (Trends Forecast)
Going into 2010, the trends seemed to lead nowhere or towards oblivion. Geo-politically, the Middle East was and is trending towards some sort of military clash, most likely by mid-year, but perhaps sooner…At the moment, it seems 2010 is shaping up to be a year of absolute chaos. We see trends for war between Israel and her neighbors that will shake every facet of human activity…In the event of war, we see all other societal trends being thoroughly disrupted…Iran will most likely shut off the flow of oil from the Persian Gulf. This will have immense consequences for the world’s economy. Oil prices will skyrocket into the stratosphere and become so expensive that world’s economies will collapse..There are also trend indicators along economic lines that point to the potential for a total meltdown of the world’s financial system with major crisis points developing with the change of each quarter of the year. 2010 could be a meltdown year for the world’s economy, regardless of what goes on in the Middle East.
Robin Landry (Market Expert)
I believe we are headed to new market highs between 10780-11241 over the next few months. The most likely time frame for the top is the April-May area. Remember the evidence IMHO still says we are in a bear market rally with a major decline to follow once this rally ends.
John P. Hussman, Ph.D.
In my estimation, there is still close to an 80% probability (Bayes' Rule) that a second market plunge and economic downturn will unfold during 2010.
Robert Prechter Founder of Elliott Wave International
implores retail investors stay away from the markets… for now. Prechter, who was bullish near the lows in March 2009, now says the stock market “is in a topping area, “predicting another crash in 2010 that will bring stocks below the 2009 low. His word to the wise, “be patient, don’t rush it” keep your money in cash and cash equivalents.
Richard Mogey Current Research Director at the Foundation for the Study of Cycles-
Because of a convergence of numerous cycles all at once, the stock market may go up for a little while, but will crash in 2010 and reach all-time lows late 2012. Mogey says that the 2008 crash was nothing compared to the coming crash. Gold may correct in 2009, but will go up in 2010 and peak in 2011. Silver will follow gold.
James Howard Kunstler (January 2010)
The economy as we’ve known it simply can’t go on, which James Howard Kunstler has been saying all along. The shenanigans with stimulus and bailouts will just compound the central problem with debt. There’s not much longer to go before the whole thing collapses and dies. Six Months to Live- The economy that is. Especially the part that consists of swapping paper certificates. That’s the buzz I’ve gotten the first two weeks of 2010.
Peter Schiff (3/13/2010)
"In my opinion, the market is now perfectly positioned for a massive dollar sell-off. The fundamentals for the dollar in 2010 are so much worse than they were in 2008 that it is hard to imagine a reason for people to keep buying once a modicum of political and monetary stability can be restored in Europe. In fact, the euro has recently stabilized. My gut is that the dollar sell-off will be sharp and swift. Once the dollar decisively breaks below last year's lows, many of the traders who jumped ship in the recent rally will look to re-establish their positions. This will accelerate the dollar's descent and refocus everyone's attention back on the financial train-wreck unfolding in the United States. Any doubts about the future of the U.S. dollar should be laid to rest by today's announcement that San Francisco Federal Reserve President Janet Yellen has been nominated to be Vice Chair of the Fed's Board of Governors, and thereby a voter on the interest rate-setting, seven-member Open Markets Committee. Ms. Yellen has earned a reputation for being one of the biggest inflation doves among the Fed's top players." Schiff is famous for his accurate predictions of the economic events of 2008.
Lindsey Williams
Dollar devalued 30-50% by end of year. It will become very difficult for the average American to afford to buy even food. This was revealed to him through an Illuminati insider.
Unnamed Economist working for US Gov't (GLP)
What we have experienced the last two years is nothing to what we are going to experience this year. If you have a job now…you may not have it in three to six months. (by August 2010). Stock market will fall = great depression. Foreign investors stop financing debt = collapse. 6.2 million are about to lose their unemployment.

George Ure
Markets up until mid-to-late-summer. Then "all hell breaks lose" from then on through the rest of the year.
I have just watched a rather old Barry Smith DVD that I had downloaded from the Internet called Global Church. It was made in 1995 and shows this remarkable man at his best.
There are a couple of points that I had picked up which I would like to mention; he speaks of the EU as being the final world empire and then he says once they get their leader (the Antichrist) there is but a short space of time left after that – 42 months. See Revelation Chapter 13.
That seems to lie to rest the fallacy that the current leader of the EU Herman Van Rompuy is simply only warming the seat for another man to occupy it at a later date, and that he is not the Antichrist.
Once the position for a full time president had been created, and filled, as a result of the Lisbon Treaty it seems to be ridiculous that Satan would appoint a man to simply occupy, or to warm, the seat while he brought his Antichrist forth at a later date; wouldn’t he instead just get on with the job instead for annihilation of mankind as quickly as possible without beating around the bush as some seem to suggest is the circumstance at the moment by the appointment of Van Rompuy as the full time president of the EU?
Of course I may be wrong (no names mentioned) but I really do believe that some people should wake up to reality.
The second point is that Barry Spoke on the resurrection of the dead and said that on the day of the Lord the dead will rise first and then we (the Christians) will meet the Lord in the air, just as the Bible said would be the case.
However, he never once used the word Rapture and to my mind meeting the Lord in the air does not signify that there will be millions and millions of Christians that are suddenly going to float up into the clouds and into Heaven to be with the Lord forever as about 95% of Christians have been brainwashed into believing.
There is a very distinct difference between meeting the Lord in the air and the meaning of the prophecy as some like to interpret it, as mentioned above.
I do agree that AFTER THE RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD that there is going to be some form of gathering up of the Christians on the day of the Lord, but I still cannot find one verse to suggest it will be anything like most view the Rapture, and I use that term loosely - as mentioned above.
However, I still cannot find one verse to suggest anything to do with timing and to suggest anything to do with time is absurd simply because no –one knows the hour or the day for the coming of the Lord.
Right from the beginning of the book of Genesis right to the end of the book of the Apocalypse there is no where in the Bible that the word Rapture is ever mentioned, no, not once.
I have heard it said that although Rapture is not mentioned in the scripture the actual phrase to be "caught up" in 1 Thessalonians 4 is found in the Latin Vulgate Bible and the Latin word used there is where we get the word Rapture.
However, this is analogy is nothing more than a pretext, or an excuse, for those that teach or espouse the False Rapture doctrine and for those that have been deluded into believing something that is not in the Bible at all.
I would be more than happy to eat those words if someone, anyone, can show me one verse, just one, that edifies and proves beyond a reasonable doubt whatsoever that there is going to be a Rapture of the Church.
Even though I am not a betting man I would also be prepared to lay a wager on the fact that there is no one out there that is going to come forth with any such verse simply because there is nothing in the scriptures that provides proof positive of a Rapture of the Church.
Furthermore, anyone that teaches or believes in a Rapture of the Church is not only delusional, they are extremely dangerous.
Meet the Lord in the air is a favourite verse used.
Meet the Lord in the air does not literally mean that millions and millions of Christians will suddenly float up into the air and then into Heaven to be with the Lord forever; no, it doesn’t mean that at all.
Rather, it means that on the day of the Lord, at the end of the seven years of tribulation, the saints will meet the Lord in the air and then come back down to the earth to reign with the Lord forever, it does not mean they are going to float up into Heaven as so many have been deceived into believing.
There are three distinct and separate horns in Daniel Chapter 7 and contrary to popular belief they do not all point in the direction of being the Antichrist.
I know this to be so because after careful reading and study of the Chapter in question I have noted that even though they appear to be the same they actually achieve different objectives.
Horn #1 could be a prototype of the Antichrist just revealed and he uproots three horns out of the ten.
Daniel Chapter 7, Verse 8:
I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn [were] eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Horn #2 could be the founder of the Treaty of Rome Henri Spaak, and he causes three horns to fall.
Daniel Chapter 7, Verse 20:
And of the ten horns that [were] in his head, and [of] the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even [of] that horn that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look [was] more stout than his fellows.
Horn # 3 is the Antichrist and he subdues three horns. I know horn #3 is the Antichrist because he speaks words of blasphemy against God just Revelation Chapter 13 says the Beast does.
Daniel Chapter 7, Verse 24:And the ten horns out of this kingdom [are] ten kings [that] shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
There is a very distinct difference between uprooting, causing horns to fall and subduing three horns and for that reason they all point in the direction of being entirely different horns.
Its there in black and white so do not take my untrained word for it go to your Bible and read the Chapter for yourself, I am not making this up.
The similarity of the last horn with what has been prophesied and with the recent announcement over the media that the leaders of the EU have come to a 700 billion dollar agreement over the Greek debt crisis reeks of the president of the economic government of Europe subduing three horns, and they are Greece, Portugal and Spain, just as the Bible said would be the case when referring to the arrival of the Antichrist, Herman Van Rompuy.
That analogy of course would depend on how one was to interpret the word subdue and if it could be applied to today’s news?
Personally I think it applied quite specifically to what has been prophesied.
Broadcast in the local media (here in Australia) fresh information that has come to light over the recently introduced EU bailout package.
Did you know that before they go to their respective parliaments for cash advances, (because of the EU bailout package) member nations of the EU suffering financial difficulties must before the newly appointed EU president Herman Van Rompuy for approval?
Effectively, what that now means is that because Van Rompuy controls the Euro he now rules the EU.
What enormous control this unassuming little man now holds over the member nations of EU.
He now holds more power and authority over Europe than any other man in history who has ever come before him.
Mind boggling sort of stuff most would probably agree?
It is now becoming clearer and clearer that Van Rompuy may be as I have suggested - the Antichrist?
Time will tell though as more and more information comes to light, but in the meantime keep prayerfully consistent as we very rapidly approach the end times.
Remember the British MP Nigel Farage, he was the man who came out publicly and bagged the newly appointed EU president Herman Van Rompuy and in a big way.
It seems that he has almost been killed after a light plane he was a passenger on, or piloting, crashed landed.
Let me tell you perfectly honestly when he came out and said what he did against Van Rompuy I had serious concerns for his safety.
It now seems that the plane crash was either a deliberately staged event -- or spiritual event whereby Satan has tried to kill him.
Having said that if they are not Christians there may be serious concerns for the safety of any one saying anything derogatory against Van Rompuy?
I am not particularly concerned for my own safety – Satan has already had a go at getting rid of me and hasn’t succeeded due to the covering that I had, and still have from the Lord. The result being that I miraculously recovered, so he won’t try with me again of that I am confident.
Any other true Christian should hold no fear whatsoever either from Satan or his Antichrist as once we are Born Again there is nothing Satan or his angels can do to harm us.
I was surfing the net today and happened to come across the Heresy Watch blog.
