Beirut Explosion – Negligence or Bombing?

This footage suggests that negligence alone might not have caused the ammonium nitrate stored in a warehouse in Beirut’s harbour to have exploded. Like many Lebanese, the couple was filming the fire from their balcony. The woman heard what sounded like the approach of a plane and shouted a panicked warning just before the first detonation is heard. There is certainly a sound, clearly recorded in the video, to suggest it came from an external source. At that point, the fire was seen to suddenly flare-up, followed almost immediately by the first explosion. Moments later the second massive blast rocked the city and threw them off their feet. According to the above tweet the couple died in the conflagration that followed, however, subsequent reports say they were injured.

As the story of the bombing continues, more information has been forthcoming but it is still difficult to separate fact from speculation. There was definitely no sign of an aircraft in the moments before the first explosion, and the sound heard on the video may have been generated by the growing force of the fire.

The port was known to be under Hezbollah’s control and they must certainly have been fully aware of the unstable storage of the ammonium nitrate. There has been conjecture from some quarters that it was to be used by Hezbollah with the intention of launching an attack against Israel. If the explosion at the warehouse could indeed be laid at the feet of Hezbollah, or any other organisation for that matter, it could be construed as an act of war against the Lebanese people…

President Trump had his own suspicions regarding the explosion:

“We have a very good relationship with the people of Lebanon and we will be there to help. It looks like a terrible attack,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

“I’ve met with some of our great generals and they just seem to feel that this was not some kind of manufacturing explosion type of an event … They seem to think it was an attack. It was a bomb of some kind.”

The US president, however, did not present any evidence to back his claim.

In this rather horrible year, we have witnessed events that throw 2020 into stark focus and suggest that 2021 maybe worse!

Despite the seeming inevitability of war in the Middle East, inscribed in daily events, cross-border skirmishes with Israel and surrounding nations, Israel was among the first to offer help to Lebanon. And, in a gesture of solidarity with her shattered neighbour, Tel Aviv lit up with the Lebanese flag.

My heart goes out to Lebanon. My thoughts and prayers are with all those who suffered loss of family or friends, to those who were made homeless, to those who have lost businesses or their source of income, and to all who have been emotionally devastated by the events of August 4th, 2020. May God be with you as you deal with this massive personal blow, and work once again towards the healing and restoration of your country.

The Opus Dei Prophecy

The Year of the Dragon 2020/2021

Welcome to the Dragon!

What, or who is the dragon and what is our fascination with this fire-breathing reptile? 

In the 2020/21 Chinese Year of the Dragon we have been introduced to this mythological creature in new and spectacular ways – in particular through the rising power of hologram.  

 What would possess Canada to mint a gold coin with a holographic serpentine image, presumably in celebration of a Chinese Year of the Dragon?  Why have we had holographic “reality” shows of the dragon, not only in China, but also in places such as South Korea? For what reason would advertisements agents use holographic dragon images to promote 5G networking? There is a sudden excess of dragons in computer games, and even in children’s movies[1].  Why on earth do we have this focus on dragons?

The Aztec images show the dragon as a devourer of humans and in the person of Quetzalcóatl, he was deeply revered as a god. This feathered serpent appeared in every aspect of Aztec culture; he appeared in the role of creator of the cosmos and figured in the creation of mankind.  Worship of the dragon was related to the gods of wind and rain holding therefore a place of vital importance to a society dependent on agriculture. He was revered in the dawn of each new day but his wisdom reached far beyond those basic needs. 

Aztec high priests included Quetzalcóatl in their titles to denote their elevated rank.  He served as the patron of the arts and science, as inventor of the calendar and letters, the protector of goldsmiths and other craftsmen.

Quetzalcóatl left by boat as he came, with a solemn promise that he would return.  So it was from the Aztecs that we gained the expectation of Quetzalcóatl’s reappearance and from the Mayans that we anticipated a date.  Curious that it coincided with the Year of the Dragon 2012/13, but as we look to 2021 as the culmination of this Chinese celebration, is it possible that their dating system was just that little bit confused?  Is the Dragon about to make his reappearance in the form of a new Quetzalcóatl?

The Dragon: Consumer and Devourer of Man

The Temple of the Feathered Serpent, also known as the Temple of Quetzalcóatl, is adorned with 260 carved dragon heads. This pre-Columbian site at Teotihuacan in central Mexico is also known for the skeletal remains of more than a hundred bodies, presumed to have been victims of sacrifice, buried beneath the structure.  In fact, human sacrifice played an integral part in the of worship of the dragon.  And it seems that human sacrifice is still required to appease him. 

It could be said that the nature of the dragon is shown today through the Chinese hierarchy.  Consider for example, the disappearance into re-education camps of many of the Muslim Uighurs in the Xinjiang region of China – the persecution and “re-education” of this minority group has continued for decades without redress.  China claims Xinjiang, the Uighur Autonomous region, as their own, and the Uighurs obviously stand in their way.  This reign of terror may not directly involve human sacrifice, but it shows the nature of the Dragon – a fire-breathing persecutor – a god of terror.

Not only does the CCP persecute Muslims and other religious groups such as Tibetans and Buddhists, but there is persistent persecution of their own people. The Falun Gong, a meditative spiritual practice, also runs counter to the atheistic state policy and in July 1999 the Chinese Communist Party launched a compaign to eradicate the practice.  Falun Gong adherents are heavily persecuted.  It is estimated that hundreds of thousands – perhaps even millions – have been committed to labour camps for re-education, and they are said to receive the longest sentences and the worst treatment.  Many Falun Gong practitioners have died under torture and, reportedly, many more have been killed for the harvesting of their organs.  China’s organ transplant industry has grown exponentially over the years without any explanation as to the source of organs.[2] 

Then there is the present flooding of the Yangste River, which twists and turns through many of China’s provinces much like the contortions of the dragon itself.  In fact, the Yangste drainage basin, with all its many tributaries, maintains the shape of a well-fleshed dragon with its mouth in Shanghai and tail in the Autonomous Prefecture of Yushu, Tibet!  The Three Gorges Dam was built below the site of a temple dedicated to the god of the underworld, complete with a devilish idol and maimed and dying humans at its feet. This damming of the Yangste River was said to be the triumph of the Chinese Communist Party.  Twenty-eight million cubic metres of concrete and 463,000 metric tons of steel were incorporated into its design: it spans 2,335 metres with a maximum height of 185 metres – it is indeed a great accomplishment. But was the damming of the Yangste a triumph or a potentially catastophic mistake?

The floodgates of the dam of were recently opened at night with no prior warning to inhabitants down-river.  For some reason the Chinese Communist Party issued the flood warning the following day too late for those who drowned in their sleep, or were electrocuted in its wake!

After weeks of torrential rain, the Three Gorges Dam is reputedly unsound and has “shifted, cracked and moved”, under the excessive pressure of flood water.  Should it collapse, the result would be nothing short of catastrophic for the low-lying areas of the basin and the millions of Chinese who live there.

The Yangste Basin Dragon

The last paragraph of Part 1 of Opus Dei goes back to the Mayan prophecy of the return of a man in the image of Quetzalcóatl.  Later in Opus Dei you read of his rise to power as head of world government.  During this last decade something, rather like the Three Gorges Dam, has shifted, cracked and moved.

December 21, 2012, also fell within the year of the Dragon and, although my writing may have been fanciful, darkness has entered the world.  We are living in the Corona virus era, a time when life has become uncertain and strange: where an unnamed terror lurks out of sight and could lead to a horrible death.  The power of the Dragon is on the loose!

2012

New Agers gathered expectantly in the ancient Mayan temples and worshipped around their sacred fires and, as the 21st December coincided with the winter solstice, the curious mingled with self-styled Druids to watch the winter sun breach the gap in the stone circle at Britain’s Stonehenge.  But the day dawned and went with none of the promised upheavals.  Between the dimming of the Chanukah lights and the celebration of the arrival of the Light of the World, the Power of Darkness had slipped into the world unnoticed. 

Look out for my next post – The Dragon of Revelation.

[2] Ethan Guttman estimates that between 2000 and 2008, 65,000 Falun Gong practitioners were killed for the harvesting of their organs.

Are we ready for war?

Are we ready for war?  The scene is set, the way is prepared, the writing is on the wall:

 

In the same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote over against the candlestick upon the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. (Daniel 5 :5)

 

For those who are watching, there has been a steady progression, for months, for a year, for many years.  This war is not going to be another Afghanistan or another Iraq – tragic but of little consequence to those who live at any distance from the battle zone and its local spin-off.  Those “interventions” were just preparation for the war to come.

If, tomorrow, an attack is made on Iran and if, in the next day or so, the Muslim Dome of the Rock on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem is destroyed, be in no doubt.  This is the ‘Big One’. [Read more…] about Are we ready for war?

Egypt 2012 -Taking Centre Stage

Egypt 2012 – will she take centre-stage?   We are seeing things move into place for the grand finale in which Egypt will play a vital prophetic role in international events.

In Biblical prophecy, Egypt plays darkness to Israel‘s light.  She plays death to Israel’s life.  Egypt was a kingdom that exalted death and she is still a land of tombs and relics.  When the children of Israel came out of Egypt and Moses their leader had been absent for forty days, the children of Israel persuaded Aaron to create an idol.  Aaron melted down their golden earrings and formed a golden calf.  The Israelites had what they desired – a familiar image of Osiris.

Millennial Celebrations

The central role of Egypt in these times was clearly demonstrated by the Millennial Celebrations which took place in 1999/2000.  The public was teased into believing that a culmination of events was to take place.  There was the promised capping of the Great Pyramid, and the hugely anticipated opening of the southern shaft in the Queen’s Chamber.

The build-up and the the anti-climax, I believe, were both pre-planned.  It was a deliberate titillation of the public which intentionally left them thirsty for more.  A cleverly manipulated tactic to set Egypt back on centre stage of world consciousness.

New Messiah, New Temple

New Messiah, New Temple.  Opus Dei predicts that very soon the Dome of the Rock on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount will be razed and a Third Temple will be built in its place.  Below is an excerpt from the novel.  Click here to buy the E book.

“Please, Sovereign Lord,” he pleaded.  “You must go back!”

Below them, the court fell deathly silent.  There was a mocking hardness in the countenance of Lucis de Bar, as he stood dwarfed by the forty-foot high columns.  He nodded briefly at the prophet who shadowed his every move.  The old man raised gnarled hands towards the heavens and spoke a few words in the Latin tongue.  A searing column of fire fell as if from the heavens and the priests recoiled in abject fear.  Only the High Priest resolutely attempted to block their path into the inner vestibule.  De Bar’s men forced their way past, brushing him roughly aside.

Ayatollah Khamenei prepares the way for Shiite Twelfth Imam

OPUS DEI agrees with the prediction of the Iranian Ayatollah Khamenei that the Shiite Twelfth Imam will soon be revealed.

“In light of the realization of the divine promise by almighty God, the Zionists and the Great Satan (America) will soon be defeated,” Ayatollah Khamenei, the Iranian supreme leader stated.

The Ayatollah was speaking to hundreds of youths from more than 70 countries who were attending a world conference in Tehran on the Arab Spring.  He claimed the current century as the century of Islam and declared that human history is on the verge of a great event.  “Allah’s promises will be delivered and Islam will be victorious.” [Read more…] about Ayatollah Khamenei prepares the way for Shiite Twelfth Imam

New World Order Leader – Israel’s Messiah?

Is it possible that the leader of the imminent New World Order, first officially proclaimed by George Bush Snr twenty-two years ago, (exactly eleven years before the attack on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon) will be Israel’s Messiah?

Almost without exception, every religion believes in a coming, or returning, “Messianic” leader.   Christian and Judaic expectation culminates in the coming  of Messiah to his temple.  The New World Order under the auspices of the United Nations also intends to unite the world under a single world leader.  At the same time, the doctrines of Freemasonry and other esoteric groups depend on the appearance of such a leader.  According to Benjamin Creme,  the Maitreya is the “Avatar for the Aquarian Age” and has been living in London since 19 July 1977.

In full page adverts printed in newspapers world-wide in 1982, Creme put it this way: “A modern man concerned with modern problems, political, economic and social.  Since July 1977, the Christ has been emerging as a spokesman for a group or community in a well-known modern country.  He is not a religious leader, but an educator in the broadest sense of the word – pointing the way out of our present crisis…’” [Read more…] about New World Order Leader – Israel’s Messiah?

Temple Mount. Dome of the Rock or Third Jewish Temple?

There are several reasons why the Dome of the Rock will make way for a Third Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount.

1) Freemasonry Demands that the Temple be Built

Freemasonry is intrinsically Jewish.

The well-known rabbi, Isaac Wise concluded emphatically: “Freemasonry is a Jewish establishment whose history, grades, official appointments, passwords, and explanations, are Jewish from beginning to end.” [Read more…] about Temple Mount. Dome of the Rock or Third Jewish Temple?

Memories of Lebanon

Lebanon was one of the first loves of my life, and certainly one of the most abiding.  She lives with me still after all these years and I can recall her to mind much like William Wordsworth, in quiet moments, relived his picture of the daffodils.  My brother and I lived for a while in Beit Chaar, in a house with an intricately painted ceiling; in Beirut, and later in Chimlane.  From the upper terrace of the old house in Chimlane (the ‘new’ section was dated 1890) we looked down on Beirut which, reduced with distance to a minute cubism of pink and grey, leaned one languid arm into the flat blue of the Mediterranean Sea.  Below the house and the narrow winding streets of the village, olive orchards covered the rolling hills with a silver-green sheen.

Opus Dei

Opus Dei is a novel set in Lebanon and Israel spanning a period from the ‘70’s to the fascinating years that lie just ahead of us – culminating in 2016. Pierre Zein, a Lebanese journalist, probes the forces behind the scenes intent on creating a New World Order. He finds himself embroiled in something far bigger than he could have imagined.

Islam’s Expected One, the al Mahdi, enters the world scene and engages in a silent battle with a leader who arises like a meteor from Europe.  This is the clash of the Titans – a struggle for ultimate power – and only one man can win.

What makes Jerusalem the focal-point of the coming conflict and what role is played by Egypt and Babylon?  Expect Opus Dei to uncap the mysteries.  The sacred Egyptian texts hint at a hidden chamber or chambers beneath the Giza Pyramid and the Sphinx.  If the Great Pyramid is a masterpiece in understated engineering perfection, what can we expect from the secret places beneath its foundation?  What part do these mysteries play in a soon-to-be-formed World Government?

Is the coming world leader a benign dictator or a religious leader, a king, priest, or emperor?  Is he the Christ, or Osiris reborn?  Does his assumption of power herald a time of peace – or mayhem such as our planet has never before experienced?

Dan Brown, in his popular novel, The Da Vinci Code, familiarised his readership with the Catholic movement, Opus Dei and the secretive Priory de Sion .  Opus Dei explores Dan Brown’s theme and reveals the real purpose behind these, and other, arcane organisations.

Read of the conspiracy behind the War on Terror and experience the real terror as, with the revelation of the Shiite Twelfth Imam, jihad moves onto the offensive and the plan for world domination unfolds.  In Israel, a militant Jewish organisation razes the Dome of the Rock, and the region is plunged into war.   Out of the conflagration, a New Order is birthed; one that ultimately intends to destroy the Holy Land.

Opus Dei offers a prophetic word for our time.  It gathers together the prophecies found in the myths and demonstrates their flow with the biblical prophecies, revealing them in a startlingly new and believable scenario.

World government under one man becomes a reality in 2013, plunging the planet onto a roller-coaster from which it seems unlikely to ever recover.  At the same time, this is a novel with a human face: the story of a family living in Beirut during a time of protracted war and upheaval.

Written over a period of more than thirty years, Opus Dei is comprehensively researched, its plot intricately woven, and is guaranteed to challenge.  Opus Dei, the work of the hidden god is almost complete.
