Yup. You always hear how miraculous it was that St. Paul's Chapel, the oldest public building in continuous use in Manhattan, by the way, and across from the WTC to the east, was spared from major damage on 9/11.

But few people mention St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, a block and a half south of the WTC, crushed to smithereens under the debris from the fall of T2.

It could be a sign that God likes Episcopalians better than the Greek Orthodox!

I believe. I just dont go around thinking that random events equal evidence of the end times. What are your thoughts on the churches that are destroyed. Or of other buildings that arent religious in anway being spared while churches are destroyed?

The groundwork is being laid. No buying, no selling except you have the 666 mark. Conform or be shut out from commerce.

Revelation 13
[16] 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:
[17] And 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.
[18] Here 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.

"A growing number of Christians who believe in traditional morality are finding themselves without financial services, both in the U.S. and around the world, as Western leaders engage in "insufferable" actions that resemble secular "religious fundamentalists who are intolerant of other faiths. "Globally, the World Bank decided to cut off all new funding for Uganda over a bill that outlaws homosexual child molestation, knowingly having sex with others while carrying the AIDS virus, and drugging or coercing vulnerable people into nonconsensual gay sex -- acts the bill describes as "aggravated homosexuality." At home, a U.S. bank canceled the bank accounts of a Christian charity that carries out philanthropy in Uganda and the U.S. church that financially supports it." -- Sign Of Things To Come


A two-pronged approach is at work. Strip everyone of their ability to use cash by going all digital. Then, locking people out of the digital world if they don't line up with the system's ideology. The soon-coming man of sin, anti-christ, will no doubt use this system to implement the 666 Mark of the Beast.

All that happens inside you, nothing Jesus spoke was clear cut, every bit in parable and he tells us this. Jesus is speaking about your spiritual death that takes place in a race to your own wheat harvest. If you dont know you are in a race to the wheat harvest, you will never die, your seed will never die if it doesn't receive the rain of Pentecost when the tare is taken out of you and a legion comes, and why does the legion come?

The spirits come to bring you power, and you will think you have arrived. This is why that after a symbolic death many lose faith because nobody with the power of Elijah wants to give up that power.

Elijah walks around thinking he's the man, he's arrived, " says he."

Elijah would kill the whole world in his pride proclaiming that he has the holy spirit, but God isn't in his fire, earthquake or wind, he revived power from the meat of ravens, and finally he gets it, he finally gets it.

He has to be taken out of the way.

Few people will ever make it to the wheat harvest, and probably fewer will realize the truth because nobody who has power wants to admit where it is derived from.

Matthew 24 is not relative to anyone not racing to their own death.

Default Anti-christ needs a 3rd Temple in Israel to defile it

The orthodox Jews in Israel so fervently want their 3rd temple built, and anti-christ needs this third temple to defile it as the Scriptures indicate; this is known as the abomination of desolation.

Daniel 9
[27] And he [anti-christ] shall confirm the covenant with many for one week [seven years]: 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. (KJV)

Here is Jesus speaking:

Matthew 24
[15] When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand; )

News for our day and time.

Through the Abraham Accords, Israel is seeking to normalize relations with Saudi Arabia, home of two of the three holiest sites (mosques) in Islam, Mecca (masjid al-haram) and Medina (al-masjid an-nabawi); the third being in Jerusalem (al-masjid al-aqsa). Jordan currently has custodianship of the al-aqsa mosque in Jerusalem. Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia has indicated that he desires guardianship of all three of Islam's holy sites. If he is successful, and Israel normalizes relations with Saudi Arabia through the Abraham Accords, anti-christ could then at some point negotiate with the two countries to build the third temple. Stay tuned. We're getting close.

You are the temple, he's in you and he has defiled the temple.

What about the word," parable," dont people understand?

Everything Jesus said was in parable, the truth hidden behind what the world reads.

No, not everything. There are no parables at all in the Gospel of John. And in that Gospel Jesus has some lengthy theological discourses.

Many Jews are expecting a third temple to be built and it has nothing to do with anything Jesus said.

Daniel telling you that after Jesus came, that another would come instituting a 7 year covenant.

That covenant is exactly what Matthew 24 and Revelation is about when it keeps showing you your first 42 months in completing half of that covenant and coming to the middle of your own walk at the completion of Passover on the wheat harvest when that tare is taken out of you.

The 42 months and the 3 and a half years in repitton showing the coming of the spirit of Elijah to a person, and like Elijah, death must come after his 42 months. Elijah walked 42 month in Ephraim where he did horrible and terrifying things in the name of God but God told Elijah out right, " I am not in your earthquake, wind,or fire."

You know who is?

Revelation is written to Ephraim whose wrapped in a cocoon beginning as one creature, going through death, and being unwrapped as a whole new creature

That reply has absolutely nothing to do with my reply to what you said, but that's to be expected from you and I should have known better. Oh well.
