Will things ever return to normal? What is the significance of the occult emblems on the back of the dollar bill you use every day? Why did President Bush mention the angel that rides the whirlwind in his first inaugural address (2001) and the new order of the ages in his second inaugural address? Who was Apollyon, and why is his story important today? Why do powerful men want to establish a world government? Who directs the course of world events? This book contains a great deal of new and important information about the occult architecture of our nations capitol, the strange ritual performed every year at the Bohemian Grove, the fact that the attack on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York took place eleven years to the day after President George H. W. Bush gave a speech that promoted a New World Order, and a great deal of other shocking information. Tom Horn recounts the story of the mythological god, Apollyon (Apollo), and cites the biblical reference to him. His book notes several references to the fact that there may be a major catastrophic event in the year 2012. Will the spirit of Apollyon be involved in that event? Will Christian civilization end in 2012? I don't know the answer to those questions, but I am certain we are living in prophetic times, and some of the people who read this book may very well witness the advent of the man of sin..the son of perdition (2 Thessalonians 2:3). You will learn a great deal by reading this book and, hopefully, you will be encouraged to delve deeper into the background of the forces that are shaping modern-day civilization.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 2 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMStanley Monteith, M.D.PrefaceBy Christian J. Pinto, Award-winning filmmaker of the documentary series, Secret Mysteries of Americas Beginnings. Many Christians are repeatedly told by their pastors, teachers, and church leaders that America was founded as a Christian nation. This assertion would not be so bad if it were confined to the arrival of the Puritans at Plymouth and the early development of the new world. If that were the case, it would be an accurate statement, in this writers opinion. The problem arises when one marks the foundation of our country at the American Revolution and the establishment of the United States. It is at this point where all Bible-believing Christians should be very wary, since the working of occult societies during this era was at an unprecedented height. Some historians even argue that you simply cannot understand the history of the world for the past fewPage 3hundred years if you do not take these societies into account. Their members have been the planners, leaders, and engineers of a global agenda, one that they do not readily share with the rest of the world. More importantly, they often use religion as an instrument to manipulate the masses, their belief being that the end justifies the means.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 3 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThomas Paine While often overlooked or marginalized by modern historians, the American Revolution, in many ways, begins with Thomas Paine. The Marquis de Lafayette said, A free America without her Thomas Paine is unthinkable. Paine wrote the famous pamphlet, Common Sense, which is called by far the most influential tract of the American Revolution by not a few historians, who also maintain that it influenced Jeffersons writing of the Declaration of Independence. Paine also published The Crisis pamphlet series, some of which were read aloud by George Washington to his troops during the Revolution. John Adams is known for saying, Without the pen of Paine, the sword of Washington would have been wielded in vain. These words (sometimes attributed to Joel Barlow) are engraved on the very tombstone of the revolutionary author, whose words are said to have stirred the American colonies to independence. Another quote appears on his tombstone, saying: History is to ascribe the American Revolution to Thomas Paine. With these things in mind, consider that Paine wrote: When I see throughout the greater part of this book [the Bible] scarcely anything but a history of the grossest vices and a collection of the most paltry and contemptible tales, I cannot dishonor my Creator by calling it by His name. What is it the Bible teaches us?rapine, cruelty, and murder. What is it the Testament teaches us?Page 4to believe that the Almighty committed debauchery with a woman engaged to be married, and the belief of this debauchery is called faith. It is the fable of Jesus Christ, as told in the New Testament, and the wild and visionary doctrine raised thereon, against which I contend. The story, taking it as it is told, is blasphemously obscene. Thomas Jefferson If there ever were a man utterly ruined and spoiled by vain philosophy, it was surely Thomas Jefferson. Along with Thomas Paine, he was Americas greatest deceiver and antichristif you judge him according to the Scriptures. Jefferson, perhaps more than any other, typifies the last-days scoffers, walking after their own lusts warned about in the Bible (2 Peter 3:3, KJV). Jefferson said this about the book of Revelation in a letter to General Alexander Smyth dated January 17, 1825: It is between fifty and sixty years since I read it and I then considered it as merely the ravings of ahttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 4 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMmaniac, no more worthy nor capable of explanation than the incoherences of our own nightly dreams. Through the rest of his letter, Jefferson made it clear to the general that he had not repented of his formerly held view. Some have tried to whitewash Jefferson because he thought Jesus was a fine teacher of morality, but here is what he said in a letter to William Short dated October 31, 1819: The greatest of all the Reformers of the depraved religion of his own country, was Jesus of Nazareth. Abstracting what is really His from the rubbish in which it is buried, easily distinguished by its luster from the dross of his biographers, and as separable from that as the diamond from the dunghill. The above passage describes the approach Jefferson took in writing his so-called Jefferson Bible (properly titled The Life and Morals of Jesus of Nazareth). What he claimed he was attempting to do (and wrote about extensively) was to separate the true sayings of Jesus from the things he believed had been added to the Gospel accounts. But he did not really believe in the authority of the Bible, Old Testament or New. In a letter to John Adams dated January 24, 1814, he wrote: Where did we get the Ten Commandments? The book indeed gives them to us verbatim, but where did it get them? For itself tells us they were written by the finger of God on tables of stone, which were destroyed by Moses. But the whole history of these books is so defective and doubtful, that it seems vain to attempt minute inquiry into it. We have a right to entertain much doubt what parts of them are genuine. As seen earlier, Jeffersons view of the New Testament was no better. In the same letter to John Adams, he wrote: In the New Testament there is internal evidence that parts of it have proceeded from an extraordinary man; and that other parts are of the fabric of very inferior minds. It is as easy to separate those parts, as to pick out diamonds from dunghills. When one reads The Jefferson Bible, it becomes clear what Jefferson was referring to when he mentioned dunghills. He specifically removed the virgin birth, the miracles of Christ, the Lords resurrection, and His ascension into heaven. Needless to say, the entire book of Revelation was omitted. These were among the things Jefferson believed came from inferior minds. Concerning the Lord Jesus, Jefferson wrote in another letter to Short on April 13, 1920: Among the sayings and discourses imputed to Him by His biographers, I find many passages of fine imagination, correct morality, and of the most lovely benevolence; and others, again, of so muchPage 5ignorance, so much absurdity, so much untruth, charlatanism and imposture. I separate, therefore, the gold from the drossand leave the latter to the stupidity of some, and roguery of others of His disciples. Of this band of dupes and impostors, Paul was thefirst corruptor of the doctrines of Jesus. Benjamin Franklin One of the most influential founding fathers, and the only one of them to have signed all of thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 5 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMoriginal founding documents (the Declaration of Independence, the Treaty of Paris, and the U.S. Constitution) was Benjamin Franklin. Franklin was responsible for three important phases of Americas development: 1) Unifying the colonists in their rebellion against England; 2) Philosophy concerning the rights of mankind; and 3) Facilitating the American Revolution by publishing the writings of Thomas Paine. To Sir Walter Isaacson, Benjamin Franklin was the most accomplished American of his age and the most influential in inventing the type of society America would become. Ben Franklin was, without question, deeply involved in Freemasonry and in other secret societies. He belonged to secret groups in the three countries involved in the War of Independence: America, France, and England. He was master of the Masonic Lodge of Philadelphia; while over in France, he was master of the Nine Sisters Lodge, from which sprang the French Revolution. In England, he joined a rakish political group founded by Sir Francis Dashwood (member of Parliament, advisor to King George III) called the Monks of Medmenham Abbey, otherwise known as the Hellfire Club. This eighteenth-century group is described as follows: The Hellfire Club was an exclusive, English club that met sporadically during the mid-eighteenth century. Its purpose, at best, was to mock traditional religion and conduct orgies. At worst, it involved the indulgence of satanic rites and sacrifices. The club to which Franklin belonged was established by Francis Dashwood, a member of Parliament and friend of Franklin. The club, which consisted of The Superior Order of twelve members, allegedly took part in basic forms of satanic worship. In addition to taking part in the occult, orgies and parties with prostitutes were also said to be the norm. Dead Bodies in London On February 11, 1998, the Sunday Times reported that ten bodies were dug up from beneath Benjamin Franklins home at 36 Craven Street in London. The bodies were of four adults and six children. They were discovered during a costly renovation of Franklins former home. The Times reported: Initial estimates are that the bones are about two hundred years old and were buried at the time Franklin was living in the house, which was his home from 1757 to 1762 and from 1764 to 1775. Most of the bones show signs of having been dissected, sawn or cut. One skull has been drilled with several holes. The article goes on to suggest that the bodies may have been the result of the experiments of Dr. William Hewson, who worked alongside the founders of British surgery and who was a friend of Benjamin Franklin. Hewson apparently ran his medical school from Franklins home from 1772 to 1774. The suggestion put forth is that the bodies were probably anatomical specimens that Dr. Hewson disposed of, but investigators admitted they were still uncertain. For the record, the Benjamin Franklin House currently presents the bones as the remains of William Hewsons anatomy school, and even has them on display for the public. The original Times article reported that the bones were deeply buried, probably to hide them because grave robbing was illegal. They said, There could be more buried, and there probably are. But thePage 6story doesnt end there.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 6 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMScience and Satan: Together Again? Later reports from the Benjamin Franklin House reveal that not only were human remains found, but animal remains were discovered as well. This is where things get very interesting. From the published photographs, some of the bones appear to be blackened or charred, as if by fire. Needless to say, a number of researchers are doubtful about the medical explanation and have suggested that Franklins involvement with the Hellfire Club may be the real answer. It is well documented that Satanists perform ritual killings of both humans and animals alike. Could Franklin and his Hellfire friends have been working with Hewson to provide the doctor with fresh bodies? The uncomfortable questions are these: If the humans were medical cadavers, why were they disposed of like so much trash beneath the house? Why not give them some kind of proper burial? If grave robbers could sneak into a graveyard to steal a body, they could also sneak in to put one back. Furthermore, why were the human remains mingled with those of animals? It is worth noting that Dr. Hewitt developed an infection from working on one of his cadavers and died from it. Franklin and the Gospel What was Franklins view of Christianity and of the Lord Jesus Christ? He answered that question directly shortly before he died. He wrote the following to Ezra Stiles, who was then president of Yale University. Stiles had inquired about Franklins views on religion and of the Lord Jesus Christ: As to Jesus of Nazareth, my Opinion of whom you particularly desire, I think the System of Morals and his Religion, as he left them to us, the best the world ever saw or is likely to see; but I apprehend it has received various corrupt changes, and I have, with most of the present Dissenters in England, some Doubts as to his divinity. From the first part of his response, Franklins views about Jesus seem very similar to those of Paine and Jefferson, making reference to corrupt changes in the Gospel record. Like many others, he compliments the morality of Christ while rejecting His authority. This was typical of the founding fathers. John Adams John Adams was Americas third president and a close friend of Thomas Jefferson. Adams, Jefferson, and Franklin worked together on the first committee to design the Great Seal for the United States. While it does not appear that Adams was a member of any secret group, he was a Unitarian and shared views of Christianity not unlike those of Paine, Jefferson, and Franklin. He wrote the following to Thomas Jefferson in a letter dated September 3, 1816: I almost shudder at the thought of alluding to the most fatal example of the abuses of grief which the history of mankind has preservedthe Cross. Consider what calamities that engine of grief has produced! George Washington Undoubtedly, the most famous man to have survived the American Revolution is the veritable father of our country, George Washington; but was he a Christian? Many die-hard Christian patriots have insisted that he was, but history reveals that questions about his faith did not begin in the modern era. Even during his lifetime, there were many who sought out a clear answer as to what Georgehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 7 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 7Washington believed about God and the Lord Jesus Christ specifically. After more than twenty years of being a pastor to George Washington himself, Bishop James White was only able to give a vague testimony of Washingtons faith. For obvious reasons, many people sought this man, hoping he could give a clear description of Washingtons Christian beliefs. His reply on one occasion was: I do not believe that any degree of recollection will bring to my mind any fact which would prove General Washington to have been a believer in the Christian revelation further than as may be hoped from his constant attendance upon Christian worship, in connection with the general reserve of his character. In other words, beyond his generally moral character and the fact that he went to church regularly, there is no other proof that he was a believer. The assistant to Rev. White was Rev. James Abercrombie, who also ministered to Washington for years. Years later, when questioned by Dr. Bird Wilson, Rev. Abercrombie arrived at the following conclusion: Long after Washingtons death, in reply to Dr. Wilson, who had interrogated him as to his illustrious auditors religious views, Dr. Abercrombies brief but emphatic answer was: Sir, Washington was a Deist. In Philadelphia, certain Christian clergymen had even tried to obtain a confession of faith, or a clear denial, from Washington during his farewell address as president. Thomas Jefferson commented on this in his journal, saying: Feb. 1.Dr. Rush tells me that he had it from Asa Green that when the clergy addressed General Washington on his departure from the Government, it was observed in their consultation that he had never on any occasion said a word to the public which showed a belief in the Christian religion and they thought they should so pen their address as to force him at length to declare publicly whether he was a Christian or not. They did so. However, he observed, the old fox was too cunning for them. He answered every article in their address particularly except that, which he passed over without notice. I know that Gouverneur Morris, who pretended to be in his secrets and believed himself to be so, has often told me that General Washington believed no more in the system [Christianity] than he did. The Asa Green mentioned by Jefferson was Dr. Ashbel Green, who was the chaplain to the Congress during Washingtons presidency. Dr. Green dined with the President on special invitation nearly every week. One of his relatives, A. B. Bradford (who was later appointed a consul to China by President Lincoln), gave the following testimony about the event Jefferson had described. Bradford related that what follows was frequently told to him by Dr. Green: He explained more at length the plan laid by the clergy of Philadelphia at the close of Washingtons administration as President to get his views of religion for the sake of the good influence theyhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 8 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMsupposed they would have in counteracting the Infidelity of Paine and the rest of the Revolutionary patriots, military and civil. But I well remember the smile on his face and the twinkle of his black eye when he said: The old fox was too cunning for Us. Notice the reference to Us, as Dr. Green counted himself among the Christian clergymen who were trying to obtain a clear confession from President Washington. The quote continues, as Bradford says of Dr. Green:Page 8He affirmed, in concluding his narrative, that from his long and intimate acquaintance with Washington he knew it to be the case that while he respectfully conformed to the religious customs of society by generally going to church on Sundays, he had no belief at all in the divine origin of the Bible, or the Jewish-Christian religion. Sacred Fire? In recent years, an attempt was made by authors Jerry A. Lillback and Jerry Newcombe, in their book, George Washingtons Sacred Fire, to prove that Washington was a Christian. They penned a thousand pages of seemingly endless speculation and suggestive possibilities, but the only confession they could produce was a single quote from Washington on the Religion of Jesus Christ. Moreover, the authors of Sacred Fire destroyed their entire hypothesis by revealing the following ecumenical quote from Washington to his fellow Freemason, the Marquis de Lafayette: Being no bigot myself to any mode of worship, I am disposed to indulge the professors of Christianity in the church, that road to Heaven, which to them shall seem the most direct, plainest, easiest, and least liable to exception. Notice how Washington referred to Christianity as that road to Heaven, as if it were one of many. Washingtons words are entirely Masonic, and the quote appears as if he were letting his hair down to a fellow Mason. Furthermore, the quote clearly shows that Washington viewed himself as an outsider to biblical Christianity, and suggests that he merely indulged the Christians by going to church, etc. All who knew him would agree that in terms of moral conduct and his code of honor, the world viewed him (and he probably saw himself) as a man of Christian character. This did not, however, require that he believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, or that He died for our sins, and that by faith in Him alone we have eternal life. Freemasonry and the Founders In his book, The Question of Freemasonry and the Founding Fathers, author David Barton takes up the argument about whether or not the United States was founded by Masons. Despite the overwhelming evidence against him, he diminishes the role of Masonry, saying, It is historically and irrefutably demonstrable that Freemasonry was not a significant influence in the formation of the United States (emphasis in original). Nevertheless, in January of 2007, the first session of the 110th Congress (when Nancy Pelosi becamehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0Jletype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 9 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMSpeaker of the House) passed House Resolution 33, which recognized the thousands of Freemasons in every State in the Nation. The resolution goes on to say specifically: Whereas the Founding Fathers of this great Nation and signers of the Constitution, most of whom were Freemasons, provided a well-rounded basis for developing themselves and others into valuable citizens of the United States [emphasis added]. Christian Masonry? Furthermore, Barton makes the assertion that Freemasonry was a Christian organization during the time of the founding fathers, but was then later corrupted by men like Albert Mackey and Albert Pike. As shown in the documentary, Secret Mysteries of Americas Beginnings, American Masonry can be traced to England during the time of Sir Francis Bacon (15611626), who is considered the first grand master of modern masonry. Even at this time, the inner doctrine of embracing all the world religionsPage 9alongside Christianity existed, but they did not publish such things in formal declarations, for fear of persecution. The outer and inner doctrine of secret societies is something overlooked by many researchers who attempt to marginalize the influence of Freemasonry. These same men would also know little of Rosicrucianism, which was the forerunner of Masonry. Satanic Roots of Masonry Sir Francis Bacons close associate during this time was Dr. John Dee, who was the court astrologer for Queen Elizabeth I. It is well known that Dee was a sorcerer who summoned demonic spirits to obtain secret knowledge; a practice used by Rosicrucians (of whom Dee was the chief in England) for centuries. The root word for demon means a knowing one. The Rosicrucians desired to know secrets of science (i.e., knowledge) and consulted demons to get information. Bacon also made contact with demonic spirits, including the goddess Pallas Athena, whom he claimed was his muse or inspiration. In time, Dee handed off the leadership of the Rosicrucian Society to Bacon, who would enfold the secrets of Rosicrucianism into the system of Freemasonry. Little wonder that Sir Francis Bacon would become the father of the modern scientific method, and that men like Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson would follow his example in their scientific endeavors. Franklin and Jefferson are both claimed by modern Rosicrucians as being of their order. Like the Gnostics, the Rosicrucians craved knowledge; it was this desire that led them to worship Lucifer. The secret orders regard Lucifer as the angel of light who, in the form of a serpent, bid mankind to partake of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil so that their eyes would be open and they could become as gods. This is the inner doctrine of Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and all the secret ordersand always has been. In the nineteenth century, when Masons like Pike and Mackey (along with leading occultists such as Eliphas Levi and Madame H. P. Blavatsky) described this doctrine in their writings, they were only admitting in print what had been secretly known for centuries. The difference was that with the revolutionary movements, freedom of religion allowedhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 10 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthem to publish such things without fear of persecution. Secrets in Stone Centuries before all this, in 1492, Rosslyn Chapel was built by Scottish Freemasons. To this day, the chapel is considered a puzzle because it is filled with carvings and icons of Christian and Pagan religions. Why? The reason is because Freemasons have always had the inner doctrine of amalgamating religious beliefs. Much of this can be traced back to the Knights Templar, who are said to have fled to Scotland when they were persecuted in Europe (circa 1307). In fact, the red cross of the Templars is said to be a point of origin for the rose cross of Rosicrucianism. Furthermore, in the wake of the Scottish Jacobite rebellions of the early 1700s, many Scottish Masons and Rosicrucians fled to America, bringing their occult doctrines with them. One of their power centers was the Fredericksburg Lodge No. 4, whose members included George Washington, James Monroe, and eight of the Revolutionary War generals. The practice of carving their doctrines in stone continued in the new world with the building of Washington DC. This is why one will find in our nations capital countless images of gods and goddesses, along with zodiacs, the Washington Monument Obelisk, reflecting pools, and a whole cacophony of pagan imagery. There are no monuments to Jesus Christ, the apostles, or anything having to do with the Christian faith. The Reason for Masonic DeceptionPage 10Manly P. Hall has been called Masonrys greatest philosopher in Americas leading Masonic publication. In his book, The Secret Destiny of America, Hall says that in the past, secret orders intentionally made a pretense of Christian faith in order to avoid persecution. He writes: The rise of the Christian Church broke up the intellectual pattern of the classical pagan world. By persecutionit drove the secret societies into greater secrecy; the pagan intellectuals then reclothed their original ideas in a garment of Christian phraseology, but bestowed the keys of the symbolism only upon those duly initiated and bound to secrecy by their vows. The initiated who were bound to secrecy is an obvious reference to those in secret societies. Hall argued that these groups have been operating in America for centuries, and that they were the authors of the American Revolution. Before dismissing his assertion as a conspiracy theory, ask yourself a question: Did Christians erect a bunch of pagan monuments to various gods in Washington DC, and while doing it, just happen to omit Jesus Christ? Or was it done by men who outwardly pretended to be Christians, but who inwardly had a hidden agenda, just as their greatest philosopher tells us? Classicism: The Veil of Lucifer In his book on the founders and Masonry, David Barton defends the use of pagan symbolism with the following argument: Americans in recent generations have not been trained in classical literaturea training that washttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 11 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMroutine in the Founding Era. Therefore, present-day Americans are not inclined to consider structures from the ancient empires (such as the pyramids), or to be familiar with their heroes (such as Cato, Cicero, and Aeneus), or even with their writers (such as Homer, Virgil, Herodotus, and especially Plutarch). If you take the time to look up the works of Homer, Virgil, etc., you will find that these ancient writer/philosophers were writing about the gods and goddesses of the ancient world. All of these gods are called devils in the Bible (1 Corinthians 10:20). The same deception is used to describe the Statue of Liberty, where reference is made to Libertys classical origins. The placard on Liberty Island goes on to say that the statue was based on the Roman goddess Libertas. Were the statue judged from a biblical viewpoint, it would tell of Libertys demonic origins. The clever use of the word classic is simply more evidence of satanic duplicity. David Bartons incredible delusion seems to be that if Satan and his demons are put in a book designated as classical literature, then they are somehow sanitized and no longer offensive to God. But in the Bible, God says, Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens (Jeremiah 10:11). Why would any Bible-believing Christian want to build statues and monuments to exalt spiritual powers that God has condemned to destruction? Clearly, the modern references to classical literature by which demons become acceptable learning tools are a clever veil of deception. This danger was defined two centuries earlier by the sixteenth-century scholar Erasmus concerning classical studies. He said that, under the cloak of reviving ancient literature, paganism tries to rear its head, as there are those among Christians who acknowledge Christ only in name but inwardly breathe heathenism. GAOTU and George Washington To enable their members to embrace any god they wish, Masonry developed vague terminology whenPage 11referring to deity. Their favorite title is Great Architect of the Universe (GAOTU). David Barton, in his attempts to call early Masonry a Christian organization, suggests that this idea developed after the founding era. He creates this argument in an attempt to justify the involvement of men like George Washington and others in early American Masonry. In his book, Barton rightly states that in Christianity, Only one God is worshippedand that God is not the universalist deistic god that Masonry denotes as the Great Architect of the Universe (GAOTU). While saying this, he fails to tell his readers that George Washington (whom he insists was a Christian) referred to this same Masonic god when writing to the Massachusetts Grand Lodge on December 27, 1792, when he said, I sincerely pray that the Great Architect of the Universe may bless you and receive you hereafter into his immortal Temple. Notice that the idea of GAOTU was not invented by Albert Pike or others who came later. It was well known among early American Masons. Could such a quote be the reason George Washington, in hishttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 12 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthousands of pages of written correspondence, never made a clear confession of Jesus Christ? Or could it be that the only quote anyone can find from him makes mention of the religion of Jesus Christ, but not of faith in the Son of God according to the Scriptures? Could this be why Washingtons own pastor called him a Deist? Pythagorean Masonry While some patriot Christians will scoff at the idea that the Illuminati could have had anything to do with the design of Washington DC, they are simply unfamiliar with Illuminati symbolism. The Illuminists (an inner circle of Freemasons) were high-minded intellectuals who exalted the teachings of the Greek and Roman philosophers of the ancient world (i.e., the so-called classical authors Barton defends). Pythagorean philosophy was chiefly embraced by the revolutionaries of the founding era. The Pythagorean theorem is based on the right triangle of Pythagoras, and (according to Masonic author David Ovason) is the reason Federal Triangle in Washington DC was designed the way it was. Dr. James H. Billington, in his book, Fire in the Minds of Men, writes about the revolutionary faith that was inspired by the Bavarian Illuminati. Bear in mind that Billington is not a conspiracy writer, but the thirteenth Librarian of Congress and a friend of the Bush family. He is as official a historian as you can find. President George W. Bush quoted Billingtons book in his 2005 inaugural address after he was elected for his second term. In his exhaustive work, Dr. Billington presents a whole section titled The Pythagorean Passion, in which he says: A vast array of labels and images was taken from classical antiquity to legitimize the new revolutionary faith. Notice his reference to classical antiquity (i.e., pagan symbolism). He goes on to say that Pythagoras, the semi-legendary Greek philosopher, provided a model for the intellectual-turnedrevolutionary. He became a kind of patron saint for romantic revolutionaries. Adam Weishaupt, the founder of the Bavarian Illuminati, even named his final blueprint for politicized Illuminism Pythagoras. Billington says that the revolutionariesrepeatedly attached importance to the central prime numbers of Pythagorean mysticism: one, three, seven, and above all five. The number five is significant because there are five points to a pentagram. Pythagoras called the pentagram the pentalpha, which is why there are so many Pentalpha lodges in modern Freemasonry. This is also why there is a pentagram in the street layout of Washington DC, as we detail in our documentary, Riddles in Stone.Page 12The Washington DC Pentagram All serious researchers contend that the controversy over the pentagram is not about whether or not it is truly there. Aerial photos clearly reveal it. Even the Masons, who deny that they are responsible for it, acknowledge its presence, but argue that Rhode Island Avenue does not extend all the way to complete the figure. As such, the debate is twofold: 1) Was the pentagram intentional, or simply the coincidence of geometric lines? 2) Why is the pentagram incomplete? The answer to the second parthttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 13 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMseems to reveal the first. As explained in Riddles in Stone, the unfinished pentagram is a well-known symbol in Freemasonry. As Manly P. Hall records in his writings: The pentagram is used extensively in black magic, but when so used its form always differs in one of three ways: The star may be broken at one point by not permitting the converging lines to touch. When used in black magic, the pentagram is called the sign of the cloven hoof or the footprint of the devil. Of course, Hall was writing in the twentieth century, but was this symbolism known by Masons during the founding era? The answer is yes. One of the most famous Master Masons of all time was Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who made use of such a pentagram in the play, Faust, in which the character of Faust summons Mephistophiles (the Devil) to make a pact with him. As the Devil tries to leave, he is hindered. As a result, he and Faust have the following exchange: Mephistophiles Let me go up! I cannot go away; a little hindrance bids me stay. The Witchs foot upon your sill I see. Faust The pentagram? Thats in your way? You son of Hell, explain to me, If that stays you, how came you in today? And how was such a spirit so betrayed? Mephistophiles Observe it closely! It is not well made; One angle, on the outer side of it, Is just a little open, as you see.The open or broken pentagram was used by Faust to summon the Devil in a black magic ceremony. The famous author of the play, Goethe, was not only a Mason, but also a well-known member of the Bavarian Illuminati. To this day, Freemasons proudly acknowledge that his writings are filled with Masonic symbolism, while books have been written about his Illuminist involvement. Goethe published his first edition of Faust in 1790 (called Faust: ein Fragment), and it was in the next two years that Pierre LEnfant (with the possible help of Thomas Jefferson) came up with the streetPage 13http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 14 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMdesign for Washington DC (17911792). It is therefore provable that members of these secret orders were familiar with the idea of an unfinished pentagram before the street layout was complete. Admittedly, this does not, of itself, prove that the pentagram was intentional. Yet it is interesting that Goethes play and the DC design were done during the same period. Because of the close interaction between the Freemasonry of America and that of Europe, it is entirely possible (and likely) that LEnfant and Jefferson were familiar with the symbol and placed it intentionally. Were They Masons? Both Pierre LEnfant and Thomas Jefferson are thought to have been Masons. The reason for doubting it is because modern American Masonry cannot find the initiation records of these two men. Some believe they were initiated in France and their records were destroyed through the chaos of the French Revolution. Before believing those who deny their membership, bear in mind that Jefferson is listed among the Masonic presidents in the Harry S. Truman Presidential Library. Furthermore, the wellknown European publication Freemasonry Today maintains unequivocally that Pierre LEnfant was a Mason: Washington DC can fairly be described as the worlds foremost Masonic City. Its centre was laid out according to a plan drawn up by the French Freemason Pierre LEnfant. Many other Masonic writers similarly state that Jefferson and LEnfant were Masons, while some Masonic apologists debate the issue. When critics like David Barton or the History Channel insist that these men and others of the founding era were not Masons, and then blame the conspiracy theorists for passing on misinformation, they are either ignorant or deliberately withholding information. America: The New Atlantis In our documentary series, Secret Mysteries of Americas Beginnings, we show how Freemasonry and Rosicrucianism existed in England during the Elizabethan era, and were directly involved in the colonization scheme. Yes, there were most certainly Christians who came to this country through the Puritan/Pilgrim movement, but they were not alone. With them came the secret societies that saw America as the New Atlantis envisioned by Sir Francis Bacon. There is even a 1910 Newfoundland six-cent stamp (with three sixes on it, no less) with the image of Bacon that reads: Lord Bacon, the Guiding Spirit in Colonization Scheme. Clearly, there were those who understood that the development of the new world was inspired by Bacon and his occult philosophies. It was Bacon who said, Knowledge is power, and the pursuit of knowledge through scientific discovery has guided the success of America. If one reads The New Atlantis, where Bacon describes a society with tall buildings, flying machines, weapons of mass destruction, health spas, the magnification of sound, and experiments with poisons on animals for the purpose of curing human beings, it becomes readily discernable that our country has followed his blueprint from the start. Once you understand that Rosicrucianism (the inner doctrine of Masonry) is the mingling of Christianity with paganism, many of the founding fathers make more sense. A Rosicrucian can readily quote the Bible and make references to Christ, Jesus, the Savior, and so forth, but he will also exalt the teachings of Plato and the philosophers of old, and will look upon the gods of the ancient world as examples of virtue and justice. Bacons New Atlantis has also been called The Land of the Rosicrucians (see A New Light onhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 15 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMBacons New Atlantis by Mather Walker), and that is exactly what America has become, thanks to the secret societies. The rise of paganism in our country is no accident; it was planned from thePage 14beginning. What author Tom Horn demonstrates in Apollyon Rising 2012 is that Americas great strugglewhich is indeed the wound of the whole worldis not against terrorists, communists, or liberals, but is the spiritual war against the one true God, waged in the manifestation of this ancient pagan dream. Christian J. PintoIntroductionIt was 2:AM when suddenly I sat straight up in bed. A moment earlier during REM sleep (rapid eye movement) when most dreams or night visions occur, a last piece of an important puzzle had fallen into place, shaking me from slumber. I had been wrestling with certain images and enigmatic information for years, trying to make sense of what I had found. But not until recently had something deeper troubled me. It was as if an ominous voice somewhere was ready to show me what I was finally able to receive. Of course I was very familiar with transcendent subject matter. I had been involved with religious institutions for more than 30 years in official capacities including as an executive in the largest evangelical organization in the world. During that same time I had appeared on international television and radio programs with opportunity to expand my presence to a regular audience, if desired. Yet it was not until a brief stint working with exorcisms that I had come face to face with authentic supernaturalism and had finally begun questioning the differences between indoctrination and revelation, knowledge and wisdom, religion and relationship, good and evil. It was here at last that my arrogant disposition, which had served my significant ego like a triumphant battle horse for decades, fell weak. The sword of a superb memory that had allowed me to chop down others with proof texts and so-called writs of fact had at once become as empty as the tomb of Jesus Christ.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 16 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMI wouldnt know until later how necessary that rebirth and change of heart and mind had been. Some of the very people I had mocked as conspiratorial had turned out to be closer to understanding these enigmatic truths than I ever had. Naivete and blind acceptance, especially of specific controlled versions of American history had kept me in the dark, blinded from the actual course that a frightening network of hidden powers had set our nation upon years before. Then came The Angel in the Whirlwind, and pieces of the puzzle began rapidly falling into place.Page 15Things were making sense now world affairs, changes to U.S. domestic and foreign policy, a renewed focus on the Middle East, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Babylon and I found it astonishing. The words, deeds, gestures and coded language of the worlds most powerful men clearly pointed to an ancient, prophetic, cryptic and even terrifying reality. As outlined in this book, the startling truths behind the clandestine society that helped frame the United States and placed within the Great Seal a prophetic Secret Doctrine can finally be understood. What even the best researchers of the Illuminati and veiled fraternities such as the Freemasons were never able to fully decipher is spelled out herein for the first time. The power at work behind global affairs and why current planetary powers are hurriedly aligning for a New Order from Chaos is exposed. Perhaps most incredibly, one learns how ancient prophets actually foresaw and forewarned of this time. One caution: If you are a person that is happy living in a Matrix, cradled in the warm embrace of illusions, I recommend that you lay this study aside and enjoy your remaining days uninformed. But if like the millions of others around the world you have recently awakened with a sense that something foreboding is unfolding on earth, then this information is for you. If you believe that a global event, which so far nobody has been able to clearly explain is on the horizon, this information is for you. If you feel whatever is happening is both physical and spiritual, yet you cannot solve the conundrum of what is stirring beneath the surface, this information is for you. If you hunger to discern the meaning behind the raging turmoil recently enveloping nature, societies, and global politics, this information is for you. But prepare yourself for the unexpected, including truly startling and often discomforting information, which you have not heard or read anywhere before. What has been hidden in plain sight for more than 200 years is preparing to reveal itself to humanity. The clock is ticking and the hand is closer to midnight than most can comprehend.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 17 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMSomething wicked this way comes. The occult desire of the ages is here. And once you understand the secret, you will know what you have to do to survive.Page 16Chapter 1Summoning the Angel from the Whirlwind'Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.' Woodrow Wilson'The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes.' U.S. Supreme Court Justice Felix FrankfurterOn January 20, 2001, President George W. Bush during his first inaugural address faced the obelisk known as the Washington Monument and twice referred to an angel that 'rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm.' His reference was credited to Virginia statesman John Page who wrote to Thomas Jefferson after the Declaration of Independence was signed, saying, 'We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm? Five weeks after the inaugural, on Wednesday, February 28, Congressman Major R. Owens of New York stood before the House of Representatives and prayed to the 'Angel in the Whirlwind.' He asked the spiritual force to guide the future and fate of the United States[1]. Twenty-eight weeks later (for a total of 33 weeks from the inaugurala number invaluable to mysticism and occult franternities), nineteen Islamic terrorists (according to the official story) attacked the United States, hijacking four commercial airliners and crashing two ofhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 18 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthem into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third into the Pentagon, and a fourth, which had been directed toward Washington, DC crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. What happened that day resulted in nearly 3000 immediate deaths, at least two-dozen missing persons, and the stage being set for changes to the existing world order. When Bush was giving his second inaugural speech four years later, he again offered cryptic commentary, saying, 'For a half century, America defended our own freedom by standing watch on distant borders. After the shipwreck of communism came years of relative quiet, years of repose, years of sabbatical - and then there came a day of fire..' A few paragraphs following, Bush added, 'By our efforts, we have lit a fire as well - a fire in the minds of men. It warms those who feel its power, it burns those who fight its progress, and one day this untamed fire of freedom will reach the darkest corners of our world.' The phrase, 'a fire in the minds of men,' is from Fyodor Dostoyevskys nineteenth century book, The Possessed (The Devils), a novel set in pre-revolutionary Russia where civil resistance is seen championed by nihilist Sergei Nechaev who tries to ignite a revolution of such destructive power that society will be completely destroyed. The fact that a United States president would quote this phrase in an official speech of record was astonishing to many analysts, given that The Possessed is about violent government crackdown on dissent that sparks civil unrest and revolution marked by public violence.[2] Fire in the Minds of Men is also the title that historian James H. Billington chose for his famous book on thePage 17history of revolutions, including the origin of occult Freemasonry and its influence in the American Revolution. In his closing comments, Bush himself tied the inaugural crypticisms to the Masonic involvement in the American Revolution, saying, 'When our Founders declared a new order of the ages they were acting on an ancient hope that is meant to be fulfilled.' The phrase 'a new order of the ages' is taken from the Masonically designed Great Seal ('Novus Ordo Seclorum') and Bush further acknowledged that the secret society members were acting on an 'ancient' hope that is 'meant to be fulfilled.' To the illumined elite and a handful of historians and scholars, the inaugural addresses by the president were important editions in a larger series of carefully crafted speeches in which line-by-line analysis of his public references uncovered what appeared to be coded language designed to convey shrouded messages at regular interval to select members of his global audience. Biblical scholar Bruce Lincolns examination of a speech delivered by Bush to the nation on October 7, 2001, announcing the U.S. attack on Afghanistan [3] repeat verified this practice, producing redundant hidden references from Apocalyptic books of the Bible concerning the End Times. Lincoln concluded that the word crafting was a strategy of 'double coding' to secretly appeal to people who saw Bush as divinely called to stand up to the enemies of God in an unfolding event in the Middle East, which they believed was foretold in the books of Revelation, Isaiah and other ancient texts. In this instance, Lincolnhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 19 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMconcluded that Bush was mirroring the dualistic conflict Osama bin Laden had used in speeches to pit his worldview against the West as a struggle between good vs evil and thus to appeal to religious sentiments and traditions. U.S. officials were clearly uncomfortable with anything that allowed bin Laden to be cast in a sympathetic light through propaganda and the transmission of veiled messages, therefore according to Lincoln, Bush joined Osama in constructing public perception of 'a Manichaean struggle, where Sons of Light confront Sons of Darkness, and all must enlist on one side or another, without possibility of neutrality, hesitation, or middle ground'.[4] In American Dynasty, Kevin Phillips confirmed this practice of message-coding by Bush, pointing out the ever-present references in the presidents speeches to words such as 'evil' and 'evil ones'.[5] At the top of Phillips list is reference again to the use of the metaphysical phrase 'whirlwind,' which Phillips interprets as 'a medium for the voice of God in the Books of Job and Ezekiel.' From an esoteric point of view, Phillips was either unaware of or unwilling to discuss the deeper contemporary meaning of this language and its importance to secret societies. But such phrasing in the presidents public speeches assuredly did not go unnoticed by the appropriate members of his audience. Lincoln comes closest to acknowledging this when he writes: 'Enlisting the specialized reading/listening and hermeneutical skills they cultivate, he encouraged them to probe beneath the surface of his text. There, sotto voce ['under voice'], he told them he understands and sympathizes with their views, even if requirements of his office constrain him from giving full-throated voice'.[6] Of course Bush was not the first president to use the language of the divine to cast himself as 'defender of the faith' in order to win support for public policy. Who can forget Ronald Reagans view of the Soviet Union as the 'Evil Empire' and his feeling that war in the Middle East might draw 'Gog' into nuclear war and fulfill biblical prophecy. In his 1984 debate with Walter Mondale, Reagan admitted, 'No one knows whether those prophecies mean thatPage 18Armageddon is a thousand years away or the day after tomorrow.' Yet few would argue that with George W. Bush the language of godlike appointment went disturbingly deeper. Even members of his own Methodist denomination saw a change in him after he took office. He seemed to them to have become a man on a mission; somebody who believed he was 'chosen' by God to initiate a prophetic 'master plan.' And until the 2006 mid term elections unseated Republican control of congress and effectively stopped the juggernaut of his administrations changes to domestic and foreign policy, the presidency of Bush was believably on a path toward an Apocalyptic vision led by inspiration from the Angel in the Whirlwind. Whether the president fully understood the ramifications of his words and actions, he and others around him had: 1) acknowledged; 2) prayed to; and 3) welcomed supernatural agents to guide and influence the future machine of national sovereignty in a way oddly familiar to end times prophecy and Dostoyevskys novel.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 20 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThough we allow that the president might have been unaware of parts of his abstruse actions because he was not the author of his speeches in the conventional sense and members of his staff with input from unnamed guides crafted most of these words, Bush nevertheless delivered these speeches after reviewing them, contemplating them, practicing them and making personal margin notes. More importantly, 'he spoke in his official capacity as head of state, representing the state and beyond that the nation,' notes Lincoln. So whether Bush was aware of his actions or was puppeted by dominionist allegiances that he and his father had nurtured (or at a deeper level spoke for fraternal societies), occultists in and behind government knew exactly what they were doing. Their choice of words and actionsfrom the presidents speeches to the council he received from members of an elite, top secret cell of spiritual authorities in Washington (note: this is not a reference to the Christian groups or Faith Councils that meet with US presidents)reveal subtle but informing truths: words were placed in the presidents mouth to be spoken in mystic harmony of a sacred craft, an otherworldly discourse, which the men behind the president, the voices behind the voice, believed would invoke the arrival of a spiritual Kingdom on Earth led by an embodied theocratic representative if these words were uttered at the right moment in history and from chosen men of God. For this 'Angel in the Whirlwind,' wrote Christopher Findlay, 'also carries unsettling connotations of a day of vengeance and judgment a notion that appeals to the apocalyptic frame of mind reminiscnet of Winthrops shining city on a hill image, coupled with the fear of being expelled from this earthly paradise if the new society should fail to fulfill its role in the divine plan.' Later, when some in the public were taking courage that the midterms backlash of November 2006 had sufficiently restrained the administrations dreams of playing a vital role in initiating Armageddon, behind the scenes in Washington DC this influential group of powerful men retained faith in their paranormal forces. Setting their eyes on the timeframe 2009-2012, they were not for the moment concerned if congress or even the executive branch changed hands now and again. They had received what they wantedofficial invitation to supernaturalism by the nations leaders and, for sufficient time, conformity by the majority of uninitiated Americans. An Angel from the Whirlwind spread its powerful wings, and a new epoch in American history was ushered in; a time when the government of the U.S. was intentionally brought under influence to dark angelic power. The statement above may seem daring. But the connection between the presidents speeches,Page 19signals to the family of spiritual advisors as well as to the leaders of The Craft (discussed later), the Bush administrations subsequent actions, coalescence of congress and for a while the majority of Americans, set in motion the rules for cosmic game play as defined in the sacred texts of all major religions, including the Bible. Invitation to angels by elected officials combined with passive civilian conformity is key to opening doorways for supernatural agents to engage social governance. This is a classic tenant of demonology. Spirits go wherehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 21 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthey are invited, whether to possess an individual or to take dominion over a region. One could contend therefore that starting in 2001, the United States became so disposed in following and not challenging unprecedented changes to longstanding U.S. policies including the Christian rules for just war, that a powerful force known to the Illuminati as the 'Moriah Conquering Wind,' a.k.a. 'the Angel in the Whirlwind' accepted the administrations invitation and enthroned itself in the nations capital. Immediately after, it cast its eyes on the ancient home of the Bab-Illi, Babylon, where the coveted Gate of the Illi had opened once before.Into the home of Bab-IlliDespite a series of ever-changing explanations as to why George W. Bush was stubbornly resolved in taking the U.S. into Iraq/Babylon, the home of the Etemenanki (House of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth, the Tower of Babel) even though Iraq was not connected to the events of September 11, 2001, years later if you asked a room of 20 analysts to define what was the true nature behind the U.S. entering that war, you would probably receive 20 different answers. Some say it was strategic placement of U.S. military resources against what the administration saw as a growing threat from Islamic radicals. Some say it was an effort to seize and maintain control of Iraqi oil reserves. Others contend that 9/11 was itself either a convenient or orchestrated event (false flag) allowing the Bush administration to extend a global domination project. Still others believe something unusual connected to biblical sites in Babylon had been uncovered during Saddam Husseins reconstruction of the ancient city, and that the administration went there to capture it. But according to the British press, Bush let his real reasons slip during a meeting with Palestinian leaders in June 2003 when he admitted that he had committed the United States to enter Babylon because, 'God told me to invade Iraq.' Did a voice from God instruct the leader of the worlds most powerful nation to begin what quickly resulted in, at least on the surface, a debacle? One disturbing possibility is that the president was delusional. On the other hand, if God did tell Bush to invade Iraq, given other signs of the times, we tune our ears to the prophets who foretold an end-of-days event when Babylon would be overthrown by a foreign invader, followed by the release of apocalyptic forcespowers known by the prophets as the descendants of fallen angels who went into Hell 'in full battle dress'. When the prophet Jeremiah prophesied the future of Babylon, he specifically foresaw the catalyst for its destruction as happening when the God of the AngelArmies (LORD of hosts) sends a warning that 'evil' (Ra) is to be unleashed upon the nations of the world by 'a great Whirlwind' that is raised up from the coasts of the earth (JeremiahPage 20http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 22 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AM25:32). The people of earth are afterward viewed as hopeless and in need of a savior. Forebodingly, the end of Bushs second term witnessed such civil clamor for renewed 'hope' amidst widespread messianic fervor surrounding the election of Americas current president, Barack Hussein Obama. Bushs Angel in the Whirlwind administration was indeed prophetic in that it accomplished exactly what elite occultists wanted: a fire burning in the minds of men, fanned by multinational chaos and desperation, resulting in universal entreaty for an inspirational and political demigoda saviorto arise on the global scene promising a New World Order.Did Bush know what he was doing?It is entirely possible that Bushs understanding of his calling as the catalyst of these endtimes events was a revelation that grew on him over time. In the beginning, much of his ties to evangelical Christianity appear to have simply been for the purpose of producing political advantages. While still in his second term as governor, Bush actually hired influence peddler Karl Rove to help strategize how he might endear himself to the fundamentalist base in anticipation of a presidential run. Not long after, the highest-ranking members of the nations politically enthused church leaders were summoned to the governors mansion where the handpicked movers and shakers, selected for their proven power to sway religious voters, were encouraged to conduct a laying on of hands to anoint the future president. As the executive mantle was vicariously conferred on Bush, he surprised the group by suddenly evoking the prophetic commissions of the prophets, telling the attendees that he had been called (by God) to become the presidential candidate. Most people including even perhaps Bush himself were blissfully unaware of the ancient signature these events represented, especially as it involved the language of Bushs two inaugural speeches following the precedent setting anointing by holy men in the state owned mansion. For a few adepts of history and secret orders, the ritualistic parody was deliciously staged. The term inaugurate is from the Latin inauguratio and refers to the archaic ceremony by which the Roman Augurs (soothsayers) approved a king or ruler (or other action) through omens as being sanctioned by the gods. As with Bush, the ancient inauguration of the leader occurred after the priestly blessing and magical words were uttered, which assured the congregations and heads of state that the course of action was endorsed by the gods. The omens that the Augurs used in determining the will of the gods included among other things thunder and lightning, as reflected in Bushs Angel in the Whirlwind statements. In modern times, the date on which the U.S. inauguration occurs is also important for occult astrological reasons. January 20th is when the sun moves into the sign of Aquarius, an important fact tied to the presidency of Barack Obama, who likewise rode the Whirlwind into the White House with equally telling symbolism and commentary. Following Bushs consecration by the holy men of 1999, only a brief period transpired in which public religious rhetoric surrounding him was no more unusual than the historiography of other American presidents.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 23 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThen came the election, followed by 9/11, and the calling Bush believed he had receivedPage 21started defining itself in unsettling ways. Author Bob Woodward noted in his book Bush at War that just three days after 9/11, the president during the National Day of Prayer and Remembrance at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC seemed to assume a divinatory role, as if suddenly he had accepted a fantastic cosmic destiny, declaring that the nations responsibility to history was already clear: to answer these attacks and rid the world of evil. By taking up the language of good vs. evil, Woodward viewed the president casting his vision and that of the country in the grand vision of Gods master plan. Immediately the dialect of Armageddon theology began surfacing in presidential briefings. Even religious publications were startled by it. Some reacted right away, calling on the president to plainly set out his views. Kevin Phillips recorded how in March 2003, the editors of Christian Century insisted that the American people have a right to know how the presidents faith is informing his public policies, not least his design on Iraq.Phillips further stated, More than Bushs earlier religious phraseology, his Scripture-flavored preparation for war against Iraqthe latter-day Babylon of biblical notorietystirred scrutiny. Those who followed Bushs religiosity had seen a change, in one pundits words, from talking about a Wesleyan theology of personal transformation to describing a Calvinist divine plan laid out by a sovereign God for the country and himself. So alarming was the presidents change in demeanor that even leaders of his own denomination registered dissent. Robin Lovin, Southern Methodist University professor of religion and political thought cautioned that all sorts of warning signals ought to go off when a sense of personal chosen-ness and calling gets transplanted into a sense of calling and mission for a nation. Ultimately the prophetic context for war in the very land associated with future Armageddon (and against Saddam Hussein, no less, the man who claimed to be the reincarnated Nebuchadnezzar) held for Bush the language of moral dualism necessary to play out a divine mission while earning him admiration from Dominionists, Neocons, Bonesmen and the guardians of The Craft. Perhaps more than to anyone else, it was precisely for these members of the family and their comrades in secrecy that the most startling coded language was drafted at regular cycle. For them, the phrase fire in the minds of men from the second inaugural was not only a call for societal upheaval to usher in a New World Order, but as Phillip Collins, co-author of The Ascendancy of the Scientific Dictatorship recognized, a reference to the Promethean faith. It [associated] the text of neoconservatism with the text of Promethean radicalism ofhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 24 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMearlier sociopolitical Utopian movements. The observation by Collins that neoconservativism and Prometheanism can be married is keen, as both doctrines are occult visions of a kingdom of God (or gods) on earth established through human endeavor and enlightenment. Prometheus was the Greek Titan that stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. When Prometheus is incarnated in the human mind as the mystical longing for illumination (a fire in the mind), the latter produces what JamesPage 22Billington called the revolutionary faith or Promethean faith, a Gnostic doctrine whose origin was solidified in occult Freemasonry and scientific Marxism. Thus in view of recent history, a fire in the minds of men plus twice referring to the Angel in the Whirlwind were perfect choices for George Bushs inaugurals. This was also key for those who understood it at the time to unlocking what researcher and academic Peter Dale Scott describes as deep politicsthose below-surface realities that may for political reasons be hidden from the radar of civilians while at the same time signal the appropriate brokers of power concerning the real or deep political and/or spiritual agenda at play. By twice referring to the angel in the whirlwind, Bush also certified confirmation from God for his actions (For God speaks once, yea twice [Job 22:13]; In the mouth of two witnesses [2 Cor. 13:1]). In occult theology the number 2 is also the Zoroastrian math for dualism, and extended the Manichaean prose necessary for Bush to cast himself as the Son of Light at war with Sons of Darkness. For the Illuminatist, this light is derived from Lucifer, the lightbearer, and, as we shall discover, the Angel in the Whirlwind is key to such dark forces.Chapter 2What the first symbols comunicated, and to whomIn 1992, former MI6 British Intelligence Officer, Dr. John Coleman wrote a book about The Committee of 300 in which he claimed inside knowledge concerning world manipulation by an occult Illuminati elite. According to Coleman, Moriah Conquering Wind is one of the modern names the society members go by. He stated: Included in the membership are the old families of the European Black Nobility, the American Eastern Liberal Establishment (in Freemason hierarchy and the Order of Skull and Bone), the Illuminati, or, as it is known by the Committee, MORIAH CONQUERING WIND. In the Committee of 300, which has a 150year history, we have some of the most brilliant intellects assembled to form a completely totalitarian, absolutely controlled new society - only it isnt new,http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 25 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMhaving drawn most of its ideas from the Clubs of Cultus Diabolicus. It strives toward a One World Government rather well described by one of its late members, H. G. Wells, in his work commissioned by the Committee which Wells boldly called: THE OPEN CONSPIRACY-- PLANS FOR A WORLD REVOLUTION. Dr. Coleman went on to warn about the devotion that the occult oligarchists have toward implementing a One World Order through emerging uniformed codes and laws by which everybody on the planet will be enslaved to the desires of the ruling elite. For our purposes, the connection between Freemasonry, Skull and Bones (which George W. Bush is also a member of), and the knowledge that Moriah Conquering Wind is a title by which the occult insiders identify themselves, is notable. Moriah is an ancient term and itsPage 23connection to divine wind as a vehicle for God and angelic war is important to Jewish Apocalyptic and mystical literature as well as to mainstream religious and esoteric minded peoples for different reasons. On the surface, Moriah is the sacred mountain that Abraham nearly sacrificed his son Isaac on before the angel of God called out of the sky and stopped him. Moriah is also the location of the original Temple Mount in Jerusalem according to some scholars. The Foundation Stone at the heart of the Dome of the Rock in modern Jerusalem is believed to mark the exact location of Araunahs threshing floor in mount Moriah over which the Temple of Solomon was built (see 2 Chron. 3:1). In addition to the significance of the geography, the role that Mt. Moriah (Hebrew Mowriyah, Chosen by Yahweh) plays in lessons about the relationship between God and man, Heaven and Earth, and angelology is deeper than most comprehend. Midrashic discussions of the Abraham/Isaac narrative have been argued where the perspective is changed from the Genesis account on Mt. Moriah to Heaven, where God watches and ultimately signals the angel to stop the sacrifice of Isaac. The Pseudepigraphal Book of Jubilees is used in such renderings, as the story from Jubilees offers the account from the angels viewpoint, in the language of the first person from heaven. Additional information about the angel that spoke to Abraham is included in the Zohar, Kabballa, Babylonian Talmud, Pseudepigrapha as well as classic texts by some members of Christianity and Islam who ultimately identify him as Metatron, the most powerful of all Angels according to these noncanonical works. For illuminatists, The Third Book of Enoch is among the most important of the Mystical Literature as it offers the genesis of Metatron by claiming that Enoch himself is the one who ascends into Heaven to be transformed into Metatron. An extract from 3 Enoch reads:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 26 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThis Enoch, whose flesh was turned to flame, his veins to fire, his eyelashes to flashes of lightning, his eyeballs to flaming torches, and whom God placed on a throne next to the throne of glory, received after this heavenly transformation the name Metatron.As Metatron, Enoch becomes the Angel in the Whirlwind and master over other angels of wind and whirlwind (including Ruhiel, Ramiel, Rashiel et al). Sparks emanated from him, and storms, whirlwind, and thunder encircled his form. The angels dressed him in magnificent garments, including a crown, and arranged his throne. A heavenly herald proclaimed that from then on his name would no longer be Enoch, but Metatron, and that all angels must obey him, as second only to God. Enoch is thus a critical figure in Masonry as well as being heavily identified with ritual magic and Qabala [Kabbalah] through his association withor rather transformation into Metatron, writes Mark Stavish in his book, Freemasonry: Rituals, Symbols and History of the Secret Society.Page 24The extra-biblical legend concerning Enochs transformation into Metatron and the angels connection with Abraham and Isaacs test on Mt. Moriah is encoded within several of the occultists rituals. In some instances, the formalities combine elements of the Moriah story with other mythologies for the express purpose of aligning the exalted members of the society with the forces behind the Conquering Wind. Thanks to radio host Alex Jones, the public has seen one such ritual on film. A few years ago, Jones and a British filmmaker slipped into the Bohemian Grove 30 miles west of Santa Rosa, California, where they recorded what is now known as the Cremation of Care ceremony. What Jones caught on camera is like something out of a Stanley Kubrick film. Hooded figures made up of some of the worlds wealthiest, most powerful men including acting and former U.S. Presidents such as George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and other participants gathered beneath a 40-foot-tall stone owl surrounded by water. A child (or effigy) dubbed Dull Care is delivered by a ferryman on a small boat and is placed on the altar before the owl, where it is burned as an offering for the purpose of magically alleviating the cares and concerns of those elitists making the sacrifice. Before Jones captured this astonishing ritual on film, American citizens were not even aware that such occultism is carried out under the cover of darkness by the worlds most powerful and respected leaders. Does this not cause reasonable people to question what other sorcery is occurring behind the veil?http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 27 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMOn his Web site, Jones says: This is like something out of a Hollywood movie, where teenagers are out camping in the wilderness and come over a hill and witness some devil cult in black and red garb sacrificing some poor soul on a bloody altar. Jones has written about the similarity between the Cremation of Care rite and the ancient Canaanite worship of the owl god Molech, where children were sacrificed for nearly identical reasons. Scholars have debated whether the child sacrifices made to Molech were burned alive, or were slain elsewhere and then drained of blood and offered as food to the deity. If the former, a comparison is made between Molech and Kronos, from whose brazen arms children were rolled alive into an oven of fire. Like the Bohemian ritual, the ancient Baals Molech and Kronos were usually called upon to relieve the ones making the sacrifice of their earthly cares, and people who sought material prosperity believed their lives could be improved by offering the child as a sacrifice to the deity. Three hundred years before Christ, the Greek author Kleitarchos recorded the dastardly process of sacrificing infants in Cremations of Care to Kronos: Out of reverence for Kronos, the Phoeniciens, and especially the Carthaginians, whenever they seek to obtain some great favor, vow one of their children, burning it as a sacrifice to the deity, if they are especially eager to gain success. There stands in their midst a bronze statue of Kronos, its hands extended over a bronze brazier, the flames of which engulf the child. When the flames fall on the body, the limbs contract and the open mouth seems almost to be laughing [such areas of child sacrifice were often called the place of laughing], until the contracted body slips quietly into the brazier.Page 25The sacrifice of children in this way was widespread in antiquity and was practiced by the children of Israel under the reign of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel. A recent archeological find illustrated how far-reaching such offerings were when it unearthed the remains of over 20,000 infants that had been sacrificed to a single Baal. For some, a better candidate than Molech for the deity represented at the Bohemian Grove is the Mesopotamian storm demon Lilith, whose giant horned statues once formed the highest competition to Yahweh. In Hebrew folklore, Lilith is the dark wind of the storm who takes the form of an owl (still worshipped in modern Beltane / Mayday rituals) and, among other things, overshadows the sacrifice of children. She is a powerful seductress who, before Eves creation, was Adams wife and lover according to myth. The Cremation of Care ceremony conducted by U.S. presidents and other elitists for her (or Molech) at the Bohemian Grove is evidently especially seductive given that metaphysicians among them believe the biblicalhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 28 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMversion of Abrahams test on Moriah was sanitized by Moses in the Genesis account in an attempt to cover up the actual practice of human sacrifice among ancient Hebrews. Perhaps they see magic in a corrected version of the storyan heretical retellingwhere Isaac is extinguished beneath the dark winged-one who rides in the Whirlwind and heals her powerhungry and seduced worshippers of their cares. As we shall see later in this study, the same occultists hid the image of the Owl in the Masonically designed U.S. dollar bill for a very important and related reason. Whether Molech or Lilith is the deity represented in the annual Bohemian rituals, a greater legend involving the appropriate semiotic figuresEnoch, Moriah, Metatron, Shekinah, and the Temple Mount in Jerusalemis captured in higher occult representation pointing directly to the Hidden Doctrine of the supranational power elite and their aspiration for a final earthly kingdom and New World Order ruled by the one who has reached apotheosis the status of a god.Enter Enoch's Antedelluvian PillarsAn important narrative is told from Masonic Legend based partly on Talmudist and other traditions including Josephus (indirectly in the first book of Antiquities) wherein Enoch, here considered a father of Freemasonry and before he is translated into Metatron, is visited by his female counterpartthe Shekinah of Godand is given a vision of the end of the world. Because of his devotion to God, Enoch constructs nine hidden vaults underground at Mt. Moriah. The vaults are perpendicular; one atop the other, in which he deposits the most important ancient knowledge. In the deepest vault (ninth), he places a triangular plate of gold, measuring a cubit long on each side, bearing the secret and ineffable name of God. When the vaults of knowledge are complete, Enoch covers them over with soil and erects two pillars on the siteone on which he inscribes the history, Arts and Sciences, and doctrines of Speculative Masonry according to Masonic historian MacKey, and one on which he places hieroglyphic information pointing to the precious treasure in the vaults nearby. The pillars are nearly destroyed in the Great Flood and the vaults lost until the building of Solomons Temple. Maverick Freemason writers Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas in their book, The Second Messiah: Templars, the Turin Shrowd, and the Great Secret of Freemasonry admit that the legend of Enochs Pillars, as well as the Solomon PillarsPage 26constructed afterward, are very much a Pesher of Masonic rituals. The term Pesher is a Hebrew word discovered in the Dead Sea Scrolls, which implies that double meanings or ciphers occupy certain ancient texts. Thus surface interpretation of particular writings are for common persons of moderate mental capacity, while deeper concealed truths lay hidden for the initiated persons of higher degree. Knight and Lomas connect this with the legend of Enoch and the illuminated Masonic rites:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 29 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThe thirteenth degree [of the Ancient Scottish Rite of Freemasonry] is The Royal Arch of Enoch or The Master of the Ninth Arch and it is set at the time of the building of Solomons Temple three thousand years ago. It is very much a pesher of the Holy Royal Arch Degree, which is the story of the Knights Templar removing a keystone in the ruins of Herods Temple and lowering themselves down into a subterranean vault that contains an ancient scroll. The degree tells how, in times long before Moses and Abraham, the ancient figure of Enoch foresees that the world will be overwhelmed by an apocalyptic disaster through flood or fire, and he determines to preserve at least some of the knowledge then known to man, that it may be passed on to future civilizations of survivors. He therefore engraves in hieroglyphics the great secrets of science and building on to two pillars: one made of brick and the other of stone. The Masonic legend goes on to tell how these pillars were almost destroyed, but sections survived the Flood and were subsequently discoveredone by the Jews, the other by the Egyptiansso that civilization could be rebuilt from the secrets that had been engraved on to them. Fragments of one pillar were found by workmen during the excavations for the foundations of King Solomons Temple. Whilst preparing the site in Jerusalem three thousand years ago the top of a vault or arch was uncovered, and one of the Masons was lowered into the vault where he found relics of the great pillar of knowledge. . . The next degree, Scotch Knight of Perfection, is set in a room which has at its centre the reassembled fragments of Enochs pillar, inscribed with hieroglyphics. It is claimed that King Solomon created a Lodge of Perfection to rule over the thirteen lower degrees, and its members held their first secret meeting in the sacred vault of Enoch beneath the partly constructed Temple of Solomon.Page 27http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 30 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMConsequently in Masonic mysticism, Enoch/Metatron is not only controller of divine wind but key to the secrets of illumination. Rituals within Freemasonry related to this legend of Enoch on Moriah, his preservation of the Arts and Sciences in the underground repositories, and the rediscovery of such during the building of the Temple of Solomon are two-foldthose based on Enochs hidden vaults including the two pillars representing secret knowledge from antiquity, and those based on the pillars in the Temple of Solomon representing the passageway that initiates must move through en route to the guarded knowledge. The rituals based on these legends are separated for the primitive and higher degrees, with those related to the Enochian Pillars being preserved exclusively to the higher and more modern degrees of the Craft, while the only pillars that are alluded to in the primitive degrees are those of Solomons temple according to MacKey and Singleton. In Morals and Dogma, the late Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite, Albert Pike adds that Enochs name in Hebrew signifies initiate or initiator and hence the columns of knowledge erected by him and those of the Temple of Solomon parodied in the Craft and rituals (including the Royal Arch Degree) is symbolic of the Masons procession from uninitiated to illumined. When a person joins the Order, he passes between the twin columns during initiation, beyond which awaits the mysteries of which Masonry is the custodian and depository of the great philosophical and religious truths, unknown to the world at large, and handed down from age to age by an unbroken current of tradition, embodied in symbols, emblems, and allegories. Worshipful Master Mason Keith Sheriff in a lecture available on the Inhabitants Lodge No. 153 website acknowledges that the two pillars erected at the Great Temple of Jerusalem are mirrored in the Masonic Lodges as sentinels to the entrance of the inner sanctum, where the Ark and the Divine Shekina resided. He adds that the pillars in the Masonic Lodge represent a portal through which the initiate passes on his admission to Freemasonry toward the esoteric knowledge represented by and beyond the pillars, available only to those who traverse the threshold and participate in the mysteries of the Order. While the original Scriptural symbolism (see 1 Kings 7:21) of the pillars in the Porch of Solomons Temple suggest by their titles the sustaining power of God (Jachinthe right pillar, meaning He will establish, and Boazthe left pillar, meaning Strength), the symbolical passage between the pillars in the Masonic Lodge establish among other things the goal of passing through the guardians and gates in order to reach the presence of the Great Architect of the Universe and the inner sanctum or Sanctum Sanctorum where the Ark and the Divine Shekina in Masonic spiritualism hold high occult understanding. The well-known Masonic legend of Hiram Abiff, the Tyrian First Grand Master of the order of Masons and chief Architect of the Temple of Solomon (whose legend is impersonated every time an initiate reaches the level of Master Mason) is said to have been the only man at the time of the Temples construction who knew, and therefore could pass down, the Enochian secrets. Everyhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 31 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMFreemason of Third Degree and higher thus understands what researchers of the Order know as well, that the Temple of Solomon is central to the origin, buildings, layout and rituals of Freemasonry. EachPage 28Lodge is a representation of the Jewish Temple, every lower degree Mason a depiction of the Jewish workmen who built the Temple, and every Master in the chair a representation of the Jewish King. Significant reasons why this is the case include belief by particular Masons that under the bowels of Moriah, where the Temple was built and near the place where Christ was Crucified, is Enochs buried arched vault that held (or holds) the mysteries of angelic knowledge and the ineffable name of God. In Cryptic (concealed or subterranean) Rites of Freemasonry, the Council of Royal and Select Masters actually ritualize this concept by playing out the discovery of the concealed vaults wherein the hidden name of God (discussed later) is bestowed. Occultists prefer to keep shrouded why knowing this hidden name is so important, but according to ancient ritual magic, it is because one can capture, control, or manipulate the power of the god if one possesses his oracular name. This is a demonization of a biblical tenant, which conveys that names have power, such as evil spirits being cast out in Jesus name and Jesus having a name which is above every name (see Mk. 9:38-40, 16:17; Mt. 7:22-23; Acts 19:13-17; Phil. 2:9-11). Hebrews as well as other Old Testament peoples ascribed great significance to naming their children, believing the name held power to determine the outcome of the individuals life. In occultism, this belief is echoed in the mythos of many magical ceremonies including those of one of the most important deities from mythology, Isis, who was venerated by the Egyptians, Greeks, and the Romans as the undisputed queen of magical skills due to being the goddess of a thousand names. Her enchantments were so powerful that she even forced the high god Ra to reveal his most secret name to her. She accomplished this by conjuring a magic serpent that bit the sun goda reptile whose venom was so potent that it brought Ra to the point of death, forcing him to surrender his hidden and powerful name. When Ra succumbed, Isis uttered different secret words, which drove the serpents poison from his body. Afterward, the victorious goddess added Ras powerful and hidden name to her archive of divine words. Such magic words were considered by the Egyptians to be of the highest importance for the navigation of physical and spiritual dimensions. This was because Isis not only possessed secret words, but she instructed her followers as to how, when, and with what vocal tones they were to be uttered. If the proper words were pronounced correctlyat the right time of the day and with proper ceremonythey would have the effect of altering reality, manipulating the laws of physics, and of forcing the being or object to which they were directed into compliance, including people, spirits, and gods. Interestingly, Freemasonic scholars admit that the legend of Hiram Abiff their original Grand Master and architect of Solomons Templeis but a retelling of the mythos of Isis and Osiris, a fact that the reader will find significant later. Due to the occult value or sacredness then of the numerous elements surrounding the story of Solomons Temple in mystical literature, there has been an idea for some time that groups from among the Freemasons and illuminated fraternities intend to rebuild or to participate in the rebuildinghttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 32 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMof a glorious New Temple in Jerusalem fashioned after the one built by Solomon. Disclosure of this has occasionally reached the publics ear. The Illustrated London News, August 28, 1909 ran a spectacular supplement in which they detailed this goal. The article was titled, The Freemasons Plan To Rebuild Solomons Temple At Jerusalem.Page 29Three years later, September 22, 1912, The New York Times published an outline by Freemasons to rebuild the Temple under the title SOLOMONS TEMPLE: Scheme of Freemasons and Opinions of Jews on Rebuilding. By 1914, some publishers had begun adding unprecedented details, including a report that the land on which the Dome of the Rock now stands was secretly purchased and plans were already under design for the construction of the Third and Final Temple. Researchers since have produced intelligence that a hushed collaboration was firmly in place, held back only against the right time, opportunity and circumstances when exalted Freemasons and their associates would move with haste to reconstruct a New Temple, from which their earthly representative would reign.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 33 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMIn addition to occultists, groups including the Temple Mount Faithful and the Temple Institute in Jerusalem are busy restoring and constructing the sacred vessels and vestments that will be used for service in the New Temple at the arrival of their Messiah. Students of Bible prophecy recognize the importance of such plans as signaling the arrival of Antichrist. Old and New Testament scriptures explain that a false Jewish Messiah will appear, enthroning himself as God in the Temple in Jerusalem, but afterward he will defile the holy place by setting up a sacrilegious object in the Temple and ordering the sacrifices and offerings to cease (see Dan. 9:27; II Thess. 2:3-4). For any of this to occur, it is necessary for the Temple to be rebuilt, thus making claims by Freemasons or other groups interested in fulfilling this monumental task highly suspect with regard to unfolding end-times events. A major obstacle that arises when discussing the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem is the presentday existence of the Islamic shrines known as the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque on thePage 30Temple Mount, an issue that may also be resolved in Bible prophecy. A fault line near Jerusalem has been the cause of a half-dozen major earthquakes over the last thousand years and may be strategically located to utterly destroy the Islamic shrines at any point in time. Zechariah 14:3-4 reads, Then the LORD will go out and fight against those nations, as he fights in the day of battle. On that day his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, east of Jerusalem, and the Mount of Olives will be split in two from east to west, forming a great valley, with half of the mountain moving north and half moving south. Such a catastrophic event could wipe out the Muslim compound and provide a catalyst for rebuilding Solomons Temple. Reports in recent years have featured scientific evidence and geological surveys warning that buildings in this area could be severely damaged if not utterly demolished by an earthquake. The Associated Press in what sounded particularly prophetic in this regard reported, Most at risk is the Old City and the 11-acre elevated plaza housing two major mosques, including the gold-capped Dome of the Rock. The site is known to Muslims as the Al Aqsa Mosque compound and to Jews as the Temple Mountonce home to the biblical Temples. It is also entirely possible that an event such as an earthquake would not be required to bring about the dream of a new Temple in Jerusalem. The Middle East is a powder keg and war with its missiles and bombs could take out the Islamic shrines in a single hour. Some claim the Muslim structures could even be intentionally targeted during a conflict as a way of facilitating the construction of a New Temple. Among such writers and researchers a theory exists that the New Temple will be a Masonic one for all faiths, built on the very spot from where the debris of the Moslem structures will be cleared following calamity, and then a New Messiah will pass through the golden Masonic portals of the New Temple, announcing to the world that the Universal Savior of mankind has come. Whether circumstances will be sufficient to build the New Temple before America elects its next president in 2012, evidence that the foundation upon which the Man of Sin shall reign is impossiblehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 34 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMnow to deny.Chapter 3Signs of a Conspiracy: Mystical Numbers, Contagious IdeasIn the previous chapter, the Akedah or story of the binding of Isaac on Moriah proved enlightening when viewed within the distorted importance the story holds for the occultists and their plans. An equally important lesson from the Moriah narrative related to phenomena before and after 9/11 includes how nation-influencing angelsboth good and evilcan be loosed or bound above countries based on decisions made by and allowed of national leaders. In the Moriah example, Abrahams obedience not only resulted in an angel staying the sacrifice of Isaac, but according to the Genesis Rabba from Judaisms classical period (a collection of rabbinical homilies on the book of Genesis) Abrahams submission directly affected the angelic princes of the heathens as well. From Genesis Rabbah, 56:5 we read:Page 31Here God immediately rewards Israel when Abraham binds Isaac to the altar by binding the princes of the heathensthe angels who served as guardians to the heathen nations thus making them subservient to Israel. But this fettering only lasts while Israel upholds its part of the covenant with God. When Israel fails to do so, God unfetters the princes, and the heathen nations take their revenge on Israel.In view of recent history and given scriptural support for the idea that supernatural forces can be loosed or bound above nations in response to government conduct, speeches, symbols, rituals and gestures, we note with special interest who history identifies as the spirit that rules the very territory the Bush administration joined the United States in conflict withAhriman, the most powerful of all dark angels. Ahriman is indirectly referred to as the prince over Iraq/Babylon in the tenth chapter of Daniel, where the prophet had been fasting and praying for twenty-one days, hoping the God of Israel would see his fast and grant him revelation of Israels future. On the twenty-first day of his fast, the angel Gabriel appears and informs Daniel, . . . from the first day thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words (Dan. 10.12). If an angel had been dispatched from heaven from the first day, why did it take twenty-one days before he arrived? Gabriel provided the answer by explaining that a supernaturalhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 35 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPersian prince had opposed him for twenty-one days. Not until Michael, the archangel, came to assist in this conflict was Gabriel free to continue his journey (Dan. 10.13). In Persian theology the spirit that opposed Gabriel is identified as Ahrimanenemy of Ahura Mazda. According to Zoroastrianism, he was the powerful and self-existing evil spirit, from whom war and all other evils had their origin, and the chief of the cacodaemons, or fallen angels, expelled from heaven for their sins. The Bible identifies him specifically as the prince of the kingdom of Persia (Iraq/Iran), the same area that George W. Bush, like his father before him, viewed as integral to the launching of a New World Order. In this regard the Bushs were fulfilling prophecy, as the beginning of Babylon was the Tower of Babel, where at the macrolevel Satans strategy to formulate a OneWorld system was initiated. Thereafter Babylon is viewed as being equivalent to a Satanic worldsystem at enmity with God and the final kingdom-spirit against which God will do battle (Rev. 14:8; 17:5). The Bushs are learned men and members of more than one esoteric order, implying that they may have known exactly what they were doing, and why. Given widespread doctrine among various religious orders concerning this cause-and-effect relationship between binding and loosing of geopolitical supernaturalism, a question arises if during the American invasion of Iraq the Bush administration or a multinational power elite operating behind U.S. political machinations was trying to bind something in or above Babylon through loosing the Angel in the Whirlwind? In other words, was an intentional effort made to magically limit interference from Ahriman by summoning the power of Metatron and Shekinah? Mystical language used by officials during this timeframe did invoke appropriate forces connected to these entities including the Angel in the Whirlwind, the Mother Of All Bombs (MOAB), and even the title by which the U.S. battle plan was launchedShekinah, pronounced Shock-n-Awe. The language here is further connected to Freemasonic rituals and midrashic studies concerning the Moriah event in Genesis 22:4, which says, Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afarPage 32off. Just how Abraham was able from a great distance to recognize the exact location where he was to sacrifice Isaac on Moriah is not answered in the Bible, opening to midrashic interpretation that Abraham saw the Shekinah above the mountain in the form of a pillar of fire pointing him to the spot. Anecdotal Jewish writings use this interpretation to recall the pillars of cloud by day and fire by night that led the Israelites through the wilderness. Freemason writers likewise incorporate this symbolism into their mysticism involving the twin pillars of Enoch, the pillars of Solomon, and those of Masonic lodges. In the end, the mathematical probability that the speeches, gestures, symbols, emblems and allegories thus connected to 9/11 were mere coincidence is astronomical. Even the hardiest skeptic is drawn to consider that an occult hand was at work beginning well over 200 years ago and up through this century in the design and layout of the symbols and emblems associated with the U.S. cities, buildings, monuments, numbers, and official seals that played a role before, on, and after 9/11. Ashttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 36 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMDavid Flynn, author of the best selling book Temple at the Center of Time emailed me to say, The combined occultic numbers, places, people and timing involved in the terrorist attack is so consistent with the [goals of the Mystery organizations] that it goes beyond the agency of mere humans alone. Researcher David Bay, Director of Cutting Edge Ministries (www.CuttingEdge.org) agrees, interpreting the events surrounding 9/11 as a catalyst for the last stage of the Masonic Baconian New Atlantis. Bay points out that even the street design in Government Center in Washington, D.C. has been cunningly laid out in such a manner that certain Luciferic symbols are depicted by the streets, cul-de-sacs and rotaries [which demonstrate] that the American continent was to be established as the new Atlantis, and its destiny was to assume the global leadership of the drive to the New World Order. From the beginning, the United States of America was chosen to lead the world into this kingdom of Antichrist, and Washington, D.C. was to be its capital.Ordo Ab Chao: Through the Twin Towers Toward AtlantisThat the Masonic dream of Francis Bacons New Atlantis launched its final stages in America following 9/11 is intriguing. The antediluvian Atlantis, which Bacon utilized as metaphor, was mentioned by Plato in his dialogues Timaeus and Critias as laying beyond the Pillars of Hercules (the Straits of Gibraltar). In a drawing on the title page of his Instauratio magna (Great Instauration), Bacon depicted the Pillars of Hercules (using classic Greek Pillars) with a ship sailing through them to conceptualize movement past the limitations of existing scholarship into the area of unlimited scientific and anomalous knowledge, represented in his Rosicrucian utopia The New Atlantis. Bacon, like other medieval thinkers including Descartes and John Dee, was interested in occult and mystical sciences, practicing alchemy and exhibiting an enduring interest in the philosophy and rituals of secret societies, especially as it involved ciphers, symbols and cryptic communication. Bacon employed geometry, mathematics and poetic language as tools for concealing in plain site archetypes that only metaphysicians would be able to decipher, in order to find what he had enticingly hidden. History connects these works of Bacon to the Freemasons and Rosicrucians, some of whom believe he was an Ascended Master of Wisdom (Mahatmas) or reincarnated spiritually enlightened beingof the Theosophical concept who had come to bestow hidden knowledge. Notably, Bacons use of pillarsPage 33and specifically the Pillars of Hercules advanced the popularity of figurative portals, beyond which await the treasure of lost knowledge and paranormal power. Metaphors related to such pillar mysticism also led to the combination of not two but three pairs of pillars, known as the Three Great Pillars of Freemasonry today. The importance of these three sets of pillars is commented on by David Stevenson in the Cambridge University book, The Origins of Freemasonry: Assuming the pillars were (as in later masonic practice) regarded as flanking the entrancehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 37 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMto the lodge, then the mason would be seen when he passed between them as simultaneously entering a holy place (the Temple); acquiring lost knowledge or secrets (as they were also the [Enochian] pillars of knowledge); and venturing from the known to the unknown in search of new worlds (as they were also the Pillars of Hercules) [this] would have been immensely satisfying in an age that believed that the more complex a symbol was the more powerful and valuable it became.Symbolically, the Twin Towers in New York (as pillars) echoed the Masonic archetype where the Pillars of Hercules, Enoch, and Solomon likewise represented passageways, beyond which one could travel to reclaim what Masons believe was lost in Atlantis, a time known to the Greeks as The Golden Age of Osiris and to the Egyptians as Zep Tepi. Accordingly, if before 9/11 leaders of truly dark powers determined that the ascendancy for the New Atlantis had arrived, occult magical tradition suggests they might have triggered an event surrounding a mega-ritual-offering (the people who died on 9/11?) powerful enough to move their invisible empire beyond the symbolic pillars in New York which represented American industrial and financial institutionsby igniting global changes accompanied with appropriate symbolism within the context of ultranational alchemical transformation. This not only would have been to facilitate a universal call for order out of chaos but also to: 1) embed subtle images in the minds of uninitiated citizens for the purpose of creating contagious memes (self-replicating ideas transmitted from mind to mind through imitable phenomena such as speech, symbols, rituals and gestures) in support of a war on terror and tolerance of diminishing domestic freedoms; and 2) communicate to initiates around the world that the oracular date for the culmination of their New Atlantis had arrived. If what happened on 9/11 was thus meant to signal these objectives, it would necessarily be accompanied by appropriate and redundant symbolism communicating to the members of the Order that, to reach the New Atlantis, movement beyond the Pillars (in this case the Twin Towers in New York and what they represented) was occurring. Regardless how fantastic it seems, a thorough examination of the events happening on, and following 9/11, affirm what linguistic specialists and semioticians I consulted called persuasive evidence of an open conspiracy, or, as one flatly stated, an undeniable occult signature linked to 9/11. Some pointed out how the number 11a number known as the eleventh hour or last opportunity to stop an emergencyturns up repeatedly as a marker tied to 9/11. The phone number called during the emergency (9-11) likewise matches the date on which the Twin Towers were attacked. But in occult numerology, the number 11 means much more than this. It is thePage 34http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 38 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMfirst Master Number and represents a dark vision. When doubled to 22, the vision is combined with action. When tripled to 33the signal of the highest and most important action in Freemasonryit means vision and action have combined to produce accomplishment in the world. Is it therefore mere coincidence that exactly 11 years to the date following George H. W. Bushs New World Order speech (and 11 years before 2012), on September 11, 2001, flight 11 crashed into the Twin Towers, whose appearance side by side not only formed a Masonic-like Pillared Gateway but architecturally the number 11? Also consider that Flight 11 hit the Twin Towers first and Flight 11 had 11 crew members. Flight 11 also had 92 passengers: 9+2 = 11; The date of the attack (9/11) equals the number eleven thus 9+1+1 = 11; September 11th is the 254th day of the year and 2+5+4 = 11; Following September 11th there are 111 days remaining in the year; New York was the 11th state added to the Union; New York City has 11 letters; Afghanistan, the first nation the U.S. attacked following 9/11 has 11 letters; George W Bush has 11 letters; The Pentagon, also attacked on 9/11, has 11 letters; Flight 77an additional twin Master Numberhit the Pentagon, which is located on the 77th meridian, and the foundation stone for the Pentagon was laid in 1941 on September 11 in a Masonic ceremony. While numerous additional references to the number 11 exist in connection with the events of 9/11, other important dates, equally marked by the number 11, also changed the course of history. For instance, the end of World War One in 1918 occurred on the 11th day of the 11th month at exactly the 11th hour when the Armistice agreement with Germany came into effect. Another example is the assassination of John F. Kennedy in the Masonic Dealey Plaza on the 11th month, the 22nd day, and on the 33rd parallel (note the occult numerological equation again 11, 22, 33 for vision, action, accomplishment). More important, the Bible connects the number 11 with the coming of Antichrist in the Book of Daniel. When referring to the beast with 10 horns (Roman Empire), the prophet, as he was considering these horns, said, there came up among them another little horn (Dan. 7:8). According to scholars, this 11th horn is the Antichrist who will derive power from a revived Roman Empire and New World Order, which some believe was earnestly set in motion on 9/11. Lastly, in Jewish mysticism and esoteric numerology, the number 11 is considered the essence of all that is sinful, harmful, and imperfect. one of the more fascinating correlations between the number 11, the Pillars of Hercules, Bacons New Atlantis, and what happened in New York on 9/11 is the arcane symbolism based on the 11th labor of Hercules, also important to Kaballah and Masonic rituals. In mythology, Hercules was driven mad by Hera and killed his own children. To atone for his sins, he was required by Eurystheus to carry out ten labors, which he did. But Eurystheus, an enemy who had ascended the throne in Hercules place, would not accept labor #2 (killing the 9-headed Lernaean Hydra) nor labor #5 (cleansing the Augean stables) because Hercules had allowed his nephew Lolaus to help him burn the heads of the chthonic Hydra plus he had accepted payment for the Augean stables work. Eurystheus therefore assigned two new labors: #11Steal the Golden Apples of the Hesperides that had been hidden by the Titan Atlas, and #12Capture Cerberus, the three-headed guard dog of Hades.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 39 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMIn Greek mythology, the garden of the Hesperides (the nymphs who tended Heras garden)Page 35was located in Libya near the Atlas Mountains. Depending on the version of the story, either a single tree or grove of trees yielded golden apples there, which, when eaten, produced immortality. Because Hera was suspicious that the nymphs would eat the apples, she placed a hundred-headed dragon there named Ladon to guard it. To get past the dragon, Hercules tricked Atlas, the first king of Atlantis (whose name means Pillar and who was burdened with holding the heavens and earth upon his shoulders) into retrieving some of the apples for him, as the beast would not attack him. The Greek scholar Apollodorus, who lived more than one-hundred years before Christ, tells what happened next: But when Atlas had received three apples from the Hesperides, he came to Hercules, and not wishing to support the sphere he said that he would himself carry the apples to Eurystheus, and bade Hercules hold up the sky in his stead. Hercules promised to do so, but succeeded by craft in putting it on Atlas instead. For at the advice of Prometheus he begged Atlas to hold up the sky till he should put a pad on his head. When Atlas heard that, he laid the apples down on the ground and took the sphere from Hercules. And so Hercules picked up the apples and departed. But some say that he did not get them from Atlas, but that he plucked the apples himself after killing the guardian snake.Numerous elements from the 11th labor of Hercules stand out as important to occultists when appreciating the message of 9/11. First is the obvious number 11, which marked the attack on the Twin Towers in New York as a work of destructive forces. Second, the Arch Villain in this case was played by Osama Bin Laden, whose last name is remarkable in that Bin Laden means son of Laden or, alternatively, Ladon, the mystical hundred-headed dragon that Hercules had to avoid or destroy. Third, in Masonic mysticism, Jesus Christ is Hercules. In Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Albert Pike writes, God, says Maximus Tyrius, did not spare His own Son [Hercules], or exempt Him from the calamities incidental to humanity. The Theban progeny of Jove had his share of pain and trial. [6] Fourth, Atlas was the first king of Atlantis, important to both the antediluvian and Baconian Atlantis. Fifth, the Golden Apples of the Hesperides reminds of the nickname of New York City where the Twin Towers were attacked, commonly called The Big Apple. Sixth, immediately after retrieving the Golden Apples, Hercules freed Prometheus from the Caucasus Mountains where Zeus had him chained. Recall the point made earlier in this study that Prometheus was the Greek Titan that stole fire from the gods and gave it to man. When he is incarnated in the human mind as the mystical longing for illumination (a fire in the mind), the latter produces what James Billington called the Promethean faith, a Gnostic doctrine whose origin was solidified in occult Freemasonry. And seventh, the 11th labor of Hercules centers where the three Pillars of Atlas stood, emphasizing again the role of the Three Pillars of Freemasonry as integral to the events of 9/11 and the metaphor of Hercules.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 40 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMIf the 11th labor of Hercules was intended as symbolic during 9/11, the ancient story was corrected in the New York version to reveal an interesting interpretation of the allegory. In the retelling, revengeful power (number 11) was released by the Dragon (Bin Laden, son of Ladon, the Devil of Rev. 12 and 13) where the Golden Apple Garden (NYC, the Big Apple, where the promise of Gold dominated) existed, and overpowered Jesus Christ (Hercules). The result created a fire in the minds of men (the release of Prometheus), which moved through and then beyond the Twin Towers/Pillars of New YorkPage 36(the pillars of Atlas-Freemasonry-Enoch-Solomon-Atlantis), quickly resulting in universal appeal for a New World Order (culmination of the New Atlantis). In addition to the 11th labor of Hercules, at least two other oddities stand out as possible evidence of a bizarre and occult synchronicity at work during the events of 9/11. On this date the Pentagon located on the 77th meridian west and whose foundation stone was laid during a Masonic ceremony on 9/11, 1941was also attacked. The number 77 happens to be the fire departments 10-Code (1077) for a high-rise multiple dwelling fire. More important, the number 77, like the number 11, is a powerful Master Number, which occultists believe represents the ascension of a New Age Christ consciousness. The Islamic radicals that attacked the United States on 9/11 would have known that the number 77 is prominent in the religion of Islam, partly due to a statement by their prophet Muhammad, which is interpreted as faith having 77 branches. In the Book of Luke 3:23-38, there were 77 generations from Adam to Jesus Christ. There were 77 generations from Enoch to Christ according to one account. In some versions of the Bible such as the International Standard Version, 77 is the number of times to forgive offenses (most versions read seventy times seven). Conversely, Saint Augustine thought the number 77 represented the ultimate measure of sin because it was a product of the sin number (11) times the number of divinity or perfection (7), thus 11 X 7 = 77. Perhaps this is also why Satanists have 77 names for the Devil. Over and above these generalizations, an enlightening observation is discovered when the number 77 is understood as an illuminated signal for the Revenge of Lamech. This is drawn from Genesis 4:23-24, which says, And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah. Hear my voice: ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt. If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold (77). Lamech was a descendant of Cain, the first murderer in the Bible, and the father of Tubal-Cain, a master craftsman. In Masonic tradition, the lineage of Lamech is very important because he is considered the forefather of Hiram Abiff, the First Grand Master of the order of Masons and Chief Architect of the Temple of Solomon. The name of Lamechs son, Tubal-Cain is used as the title for a secret handgrip in Masonic ritual, which bestows passage of the Third Degree Master Mason. This is more than superficially important, as handgrips in Freemasonry form a Luciferian antithesis to the Biblical concept of virtuous power-transference or blessings through greetings or laying on of hands. Thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 41 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMMason is actually instructed to follow in the footsteps of his forefather, Tubal-Cain in order to master the seething energies of Lucifer [that] are in his hands. Celebrated 33 Freemason, Manly P. Hall explains: The day has come when Fellow Craftsman must know and apply their knowledge. The lost key to their grade is the mastery of emotion, which places the energy of the universe at their disposal. Man can only expect to be entrusted with great power by proving his ability to use it constructively and selflessly. When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his Craft. The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands, and before he may step onward and upward, he must prove his ability to properly apply energy. He must follow in the footsteps of his forefather, Tubal-Cain, who with the mighty strength of the war god hammered his sword into a plowshare.Page 37The relationship between Lucifer and possessing the mighty strength of the war god is explained by various Masonic sources as a reference to the Roman god Vulcan, the son of Jupiter and Juno, a sun deity associated with lightning and volcanic fire to which human sacrifices were made. His connection with the seething energies of Lucifer thus makes sense given that the myth of Vulcan closely resembles the fall of Lucifer and his subsequent position on earth. Various works have provided evidence that Vulcan is actually identical with or related to the biblical Satan. According to Diel, he bears a family relationship to the Christian devil, writes J.C. Cirlot in the Dictionary of Symbols. If the number 77 on September 11, 2001 pointed to revenge upon the United States by the Royal Bloodline descendents of Lamech, they were following the footsteps of Tubal-Cain indeed, releasing the seething energies of Lucifer and the strength of Vulcan (Satan) to whom human sacrifices must be made. To what end? Manly P. Hall writes: The outcome of the secret destiny is a World Order ruled by a King with supernatural powers. This King was descended of a divine race; that is, he belonged to the Order of the Illumined for those who come to a state of wisdom then belong to a family of heroesperfected human beings.Manly P. Hall, The Secret Destiny of America.Chapter 4Manufacturing the Man of Sin's New World Orderhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 42 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMEvents unfolding since 9/11 portend a near future in which a man of superior intelligence, wit, charm, and diplomacy will emerge on the world scene as a savior. He will seemingly possess a transcendent wisdom that enables him to solve problems and to offer solutions for many of todays most perplexing issues. His popularity will be widespread and his fans will include young and old, religious and nonreligious, male and female. Talk show hosts will interview his colleagues, news anchors will cover his movements, scholars will applaud his uncanny ability at resolving what has escaped the rest of us, and the poor will bow down at his table. He will, in all human respects, appeal to the best idea of society. But his profound comprehension and irresistible presence will be the result of an invisible network of thousands of years of collective knowledge. He will, like the god Vulcan, represent the embodiment of a very old super-intellegent spirit. As Jesus Christ was the seed of the woman (Gen. 3:15), he will be the seed of the serpent. Moreover, though his arrival in the form of a man was foretold by numerous Scriptures, the broad masses will not immediately recognize him for what he actually is paganisms ultimate incarnation; the beast of Revelation 13:1. Its been assumed for centuries that a prerequisite for the coming of Antichrist would be a revived world orderan umbrella under which national boundaries dissolve, and ethnic groups, ideologies, religions, and economics from around the world, orchestrate a single and dominant sovereignty. At the head of the utopian administration, a single personality will surface. He will appear to be a man of distinguished character, but will ultimately become a king of fierce countenance (Dan. 8:23). WithPage 38imperious decree he will facilitate a one-world government, universal religion, and global socialism. Those who refuse his New World Order will inevitably be imprisoned or destroyed until at last he exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshiped, so that he, as God, sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God (2 Thess. 2:4). For many years the notion of an Orwellian society where one-world government oversees the smallest details of our lives and in which human liberties are abandoned was considered anathema. The idea that rugged individualism would somehow be sacrificed for an anesthetized universal harmony was repudiated by Americas greatest minds. Then, in the 1970s, things began to change. Following a call by Nelson Rockefeller for the creation of a New World Order, presidential candidate Jimmy Carter campaigned, saying, We must replace balance of power politics with world order politics. This struck a chord with international leaders including President George Herbert Walker Bush, who in the 1980s began championing the one-world dirge, announcing over national television that the time for a New World Order had arrived. The invasion into Kuwait by Iraq/Babylon provided perfect cover for allied forces to engage the Babylonian prince by launching Desert Storm against Saddam Husseins forces, an effort Bush made clear was to forge for ourselves and for future generations a New World Order in which a credible United Nations can use its role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U.N.s founders. Following this initial statement, Bush addressed the Congress where he added:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 43 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMWhat is at stake is more than one small country [Kuwait], it is a big ideaa New World Order, where diverse nations are drawn together in common cause to achieve the universal aspirations of mankind. Such is a world worthy of our struggle, and worthy of our childrens future. the long-held promise of a New World OrderEver since the Presidents astonishing newscast, the parade of political and religious leaders in the United States and abroad pushing for a New World Order has multiplied. Britains Prime Minister Tony Blair in a speech delivered in Chicago, April 22, 1999, said frankly, We are all internationalists now, whether we like it or not. Blair could barely have imagined how quickly his doctrine would catch on. By December 9, 2008, respected chief foreign affairs columnist for The Financial Times, Gideon Rachman (who attended the 2003 and 2004 Bilderberg meetings at Versailles, France, and Stresa, Italy) admitted, I have never believed that there is a secret United Nations plot to take over the US. I have never seen black helicopters hovering in the sky above Montana. But, for the first time in my life, I think the formation of some sort of world government is plausible. The United Kingdoms Gordon Brown not only agreed, but in an article for The Sunday Times, March 1, 2009, said it was time for all countries of the world to renounce protectionism and to participate in a new international system of banking and regulations to shape the 21st century as the first century of a truly global society. On January 1, 2009, Mikhail Gorbachev, the former head of state of the USSR, said the global clamor for change and the election of Barack Obama was the catalyst that might finally convince the world of the need for global government. In an article for the International Herald Tribune, he said: Throughout the world, there is a clamor for change. That desire was evident in November, in an event that could become both a symbol of this need for change and a real catalyst for that change. Given the special role the United States continues to play in the world, thePage 39election of Barack Obama could have consequences that go far beyond that country If current ideas for reforming the worlds financial and economic institutions are consistently implemented, that would suggest we are finally beginning to understand the important of global governance.Four days later on January 5, 2009, the chorus call for a New World Order was ramped up by former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger while on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. A reporter for CNBC asked Kissinger what he thought Barack Obamas first actions as President should be in light of the global financial crises. He answered, I think that his task willhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 44 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMbe to develop an overall strategy for America in this period, when really a New World Order can be created. Kissinger followed on January 13th, with an opinion piece distributed by Tribune Media Services titled The Chance for a New World Order. Addressing the international financial crises inherited by Barack Obama, Kissinger discussed the need for an international political order (world government) to rise and govern a new international monetary and trade system. The nadir of the existing international financial system coincides with simultaneous political crises around the globe, he wrote. The alternative to a new international order is chaos. Kissinger went on to highlight Obamas extraordinary impact on the imagination of humanity, calling it an important element in shaping a New World Order. [2] Kissingera Rockefeller functionary and member of the Bilderberg group and Trilateral Commission who routinely turns up in lists among senior members of the Illuminati peppered his article with key phrases from Masonic dogma, including the comment about the alternative to a new international order is chaos, a clear reference to Ordo ab Chao from Ancient Craft Masonry, a reference to the doctrine of Order out of Chaos. Like the mythical Phoenix firebird, Kissinger visualized the opportunity for a New World Order to be engineered from the ashes of current global chaos, exactly the point he had made years earlier at the Bilderberger meeting in Evian, France, May 21, 1991 when describing how the world could be manipulated into willingly embracing global government. He said: Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government.During his second inaugural address, U.S. President George W. Bush likewise envisioned the specterPage 40of a Babylonian-like One World Government. With an almost religious tone he cited Masonic script, saying, When our Founders declared a new order of the ages . . . they were acting on an ancient hope that is meant to be fulfilled. [4] New Age guru Benjamin Creme was clearer still on how the marriage of politics and religion would epitomize the New World Order when he said some years ago, What is the plan? It includes the installation of a new world government and a new world religion under Maitreia (Maitreia is a New Age messiah). Five-time United States Senator from Arizona and Republican Presidential nominee in 1964, Barry Goldwater likewise foresaw the union of politicshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 45 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMand religion as a catalyst for global government. In writing of the efforts of behind-the-scenes groups including international bankers to bring about a New World Order, he said it would occur through consolidating the four centers of powerpolitical, monetary, intellectual and ecclesiastical. As the managers and creators of the new (prophetic) system, this power elite would rule the future of mankind he believed. So concerned was Goldwater with the consolidation of government policy and religious creed that on September 16, 1981 he took the unique position of warning political preachers from the floor of the US Senate that he would fight them every step of the way if they [tried] to dictate their [religious ideas] to all Americans in the name of conservatism. The increasing influence of the Religious Right on the Republican Party was bothersome to Goldwater in particular because of his libertarian views. It should have concerned theologians as well, and I say this as a man often associated with the Religious Right. Combining religious faith with politics as a legislative system of governance hearkens the formula upon which Antichrist will come to power (note how in the Book of Revelation chapter 13 the political figure of Antichrist derives ultranational dominance from the worlds religious faithful through the influence of an ecclesiastical leader known as the False Prophet). Neither Jesus nor his disciples (who turned the world upside down through preaching the Gospel of Christ, the true power of God according to Paul) ever imagined the goal of changing the world through supplanting secular government with an authoritarian theocracy. In fact, Jesus made it clear that his followers would not fight earthly authorities purely because His Kingdom was not of this world (John 18:36). While every modern citizenreligious and non-religioushas responsibility to lobby for moral good, combining the mission of the Church with political aspirations is not only unprecedented in New Testament theologyincluding the life of Christ and the pattern of the New Testament Churchbut, as Goldwater may have feared, a tragic scheme concocted by sinister forces to defer the Church from its true power while enriching insincere bureaucrats, a disastrous fact that only now some are beginning to understand. Behind these scenes and beyond view of the worlds uninitiated members, the alchemy and rituals of the occult mastersIlluminatists, Masons, Bonesmen, Bilderbergers and Bohemianshave combined to harmonize so completely within recent U.S. foreign and domestic policies as to clearly point to a terrifying Sibyls conjure, a near future horizon upon which a leader of indescribable brutality will appear. Although this false prince of peace will seem at first to hold unique answers to lifes most challenging questions, ultimately he will make the combined depravities of Antiochus Epiphenes, Hitler, Stalin, and Genghis Khan, all of whom were types of the Antichrist, look like childs play. He will raise his fist, speaking great things.. in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven (Rev. 13:5-6). He will champion worship of the old gods and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed (Rev. 13:15), and he will revive an ancient mystery religion that is the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird (Rev. 18:2).Page 41Nevertheless . . . the world is readied . . . indeed hungry for . . . a political savior to arise now with ahttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 46 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMplan to deliver mankind from upheaval.Enter the Era of ObamaShould the world continue, historians will undoubtedly record how the messianic fervor surrounding the election of the 44th president of the United States reflected not only widespread disapproval for Bush administration policies, but how, in the aftermath of September 11, 2001 the American psyche was primed to accept expansive alterations in political and financial policy with an overarching scheme for salvation from chaos. Among these historians, a few will undoubtedly also argue that, as National German Socialists did in the years following World War I, Barack Hussein Obama appealed to the increasingly disenfranchised voters among American society by playing on their understandable fears in order to posture himself as the essential agent of change. What most of these historians are not likely to record, however, is the involvement before and after the U.S. presidential election by unseen shapers of the New World Order. If they did, the vast numbers of people would not believe it anyway, the idea that behind the global chaos that gave rise to Obamas popularity was a secret network, a transnational hand directing the course of civilization. Yet no account of history including recent times is complete or even sincere without at least acknowledging the behind-the-scenes masters who manipulate international policy, banking and finance, securities and exchange, trade, commodities, and energy resources. Numerous works including scholarly ones have connected the dots between this ruling superclass and the integration of policy handed down to governing bodies of nation-states and supranational organizations. The Economist Newspaper in April 2008 pointed to research by academic David Rothkopf, whose book, Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making documented how only a few thousand people worldwide actually dictate the majority of policies operating at a global scale. The Economist described this comparatively small number of elites as being groomed in world-spanning institutions [who] meet at global events such as the World Economic Forum at Davos and the Trilateral Commission or the Bilderberg meetings or the Bohemian Grove seminars that take place every July in California. Long time radio host and author of Brotherhood of Darkness, Stanley Monteith says such persons are part of an Occult Hierarchy that rules the world and directs the course of human events. The movement is led by powerful men who reject Christianity, embrace the dark side, and are dedicated to the formation of a world government and a world religion, he writes. They control the government, the media many corporations, and both [US] political parties. Interestingly, Pope Benedict XVI may have referred to the same group when in 2008 he warned United Nations diplomats that multilateral consensus needed to solve global difficulties was in crises because answers to the problems were being subordinated to the decisions of the few. His predecessor, Pope John Paul II may have acknowledged the same, believing a One World Government beneath the guidance of a ruling superclass was inevitable. Before his death, it was prominent American politicalhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 47 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 42scientist Samuel P. Huntington who brought the uber-echelon behind the push for global government up from conspiracy theory to academic acceptability when he established that they have little need for national loyalty, view national boundaries as obstacles that thankfully are vanishing, and see national governments as residues from the past whose only useful function is to facilitate the elites global operations. In other words, according to experts, international affairs, foreign and domestic politics and taxpayer funded investment economics are being largely decided by a privileged cadre of families who are dedicated to a New World Order and One World Government. I have to admit when writing this series it was difficult to resist the temptation to compile at length the names, dates and organizations that form the goals of the ruling elite. Having accumulated thousands of pages of research material concerning the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, Bohemians, Masons, the Bilderbergers and other Illuminatus subgroups, my original intention included several chapters on the memberships past and present of the largely unknown powers working behind public affairs. In the end I determined that enough of this type material is already available to the public and that this work would be better served in raising awareness beyond the machinations of financiers and occult ideologues who direct global institutions, by showing that behind their matrix of illusionwhich most citizens perceive as realityis an arena of evil supernaturalism under which these human conduits are willingly organized. In more than thirty important biblical texts, the Greek New Testament employs the term kosmos, which describes an invisible order or government behind government. It is here that human ego, separated from God, becomes hostile to the service of mankind while viewing people as commodities to be manipulated in the service of fiendish ambition. To some, the origins of this phenomenon began in the distant past when a fire in the minds of angels caused Lucifer to exalt himself above the good of Gods Creation. The once glorified spirit was driven mad by an unequivocal thirst to rule, conquer, and dominate. His fall spawned similar lust between his followers, which continues today among human agents of dark power who guard a privileged cause and effect relationship between diabolical forces and the opportunity for lordship over societies. The objectives of the secret orders and the very real forces they serve is seldom perceived by citizens of democratic societies who choose to believe national officials actually rule their countries and represent their interests. Yet according to sacred texts, not only does an active collaboration exist between unregenerate social architects and fallen angels, but politicians in particular are vulnerable to principalities and powers. According to well-known exorcist Gabriele Amorth who has performed over 70,000 official exorcisms, Evil exists in politics, quite often in fact. The devil loves to take over those who hold political office. As a result, it is not difficult to see how fleshy gloves such as US Presidents may be unaware of their role as chess pieces on a terrestrial game board sliding in and out of position as they arehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 48 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMmoved by the god of this world toward the phantasmogoric end game (see 2 Cor. 4:4). If researchers like Dr. Monteith are correct and world governments are to this day influenced by such dark angelic powers, the elite who head the current push to establish a New World Order are directly connected with an antichrist system whether they know it or not. With vivid testimony to this, Satan offered to Jesus all the power and glory of the kingdoms of this world. He said, All this power [control] will I give thee, and the glory of them [earthlyPage 43cities]: for that is delivered unto me: and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine (Luke 4:6-7). Signs and evidence of such supernatural involvement in the current move towards worldwide totalitarian government have been increasing in political commentary, occult symbolism and numerological coincidences over the past decade. As public opinion is engineered toward final acceptance of the international subordination, we would expect to see these mirrors of occult involvement continue. Recently there have been so many semiotic messages (visible signs and audible references that communicate subliminal ideas) in the open that it is starting to feel as if the gods are mocking us; challenging whether or not we will willingly admit their involvement. This has been exponentially true since the election of US President Barack Hussein Obama, the President of the world according to news services around the planet. While the grandiose title President of the world granted Obama by euphoric crowds on election night remains to be prophetic, the glorified ideal behind it reflects the global hunger for, and movement toward, the arrival of the one who represents the invisible agencies mentioned above and who, for a while, will appear to be the worlds answer man. Consider the unprecedented messianic rhetoric that reporters, politicians, celebrities and even preachers used in celebrating the spiritual nature of Obamas meteoric rise from near obscurity to US President. San Francisco Chronicle columnist Mark Morford characterized it as a sort of powerful luminosity. In Morfords opinion, this was because Obama is a Lightworker, that rare kind of attuned being who has the ability to help usher in a new way of being on the planet The dean of the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel, Lawrence Carter, went further, comparing Obama to the coming of Jesus Christ: It is powerful and significant on a spiritual level that there is the emergence of Barack Obama No one saw him coming, and Christians believe God comes at us from strange angles and places we dont expect, like Jesus being born in a manger. Dinesh Sharma, a marketing science consultant with a PhD in Psychology from Harvard appraised Obama likewise: Many see in Obama a messiah-like figure, a great soul, and some affectionately call him Mahatma Obama. It would have been easy to dismiss such commentary as the New Age quiverings of loons had it not been for similar passion on the lips of so many people. The following is a brief list of like expressions from a variety of news sources:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 49 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMBaracks appeal is actually messianic he communicates God-like energy What if God decided to incarnate as men preaching hope and change.

Officially produced Obama campaign advertising consistently used such words as faith, hope, and change. Republican nominee John McCain picked up on this during his run for office and put out a cynical video called The One. Using some of Obamas own words against him, the video mocked Obamas play as a Christ-like figure, showing him in New Hampshire saying, a light beam will shine through, will light you up, and you will experience an epiphany, and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote for Barack! The video failed to mention that having an epiphany actually means the sudden realization or comprehension of an appearance of deity to man. Another part of the video included Obama during his nomination victory speech in St. Paul, Minnesota, saying, this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal. Anybody that followed the presidential campaign would have picked up the same nuancesangelic children organized to sing about Obama, logos depicting rays of sunlight beaming out from his O shaped hand sign (a gesticulation Hitler used as well), books such as Nikki Grimes Barack Obama: Son of Promise, Child of Hope (Simon & Schuster), comparisons to Platos Philosopher King without whom our souls will remain broken, comparisons to the spiritually enlightened Mahatma Gandhi, comparisons to the Solar Hero Perseus, comparisons to Jesus Christ and even comparisons to God Himself.Page 45The world is looking for a superstar, wrote Prophecy in the News founder J. R. Church. They want a man who can solve the problems of our planet. That elusive dream of a world without war, poverty, and disease has always been just beyond our reach. Most politicians are perplexedoverwhelmed by the magnitude of the problem. They are convinced that the dilemma cannot be solved by commerce or systems, be it democracy or socialism. Most believe they can only be solved by a mana superhuman superstar! Will Obama become the superhuman superstar the world has been waiting for? If symbolic gestures are any indication, there certainly were plenty of religious folks during his march into the White House that thought he was or that at least he was a forerunner of The One. Dozens of churches and faith groups including mainline Protestants organized activities to mark Obamas inauguration as a spiritual event. Randall Balmer, professor of religion in American history at Columbia University admitted he had never seen anything like it before. CNN went so far as to compare Obamas inauguration to the Hajjthe journey by Muslims to the holy city of Mecca, an obligatory pilgrimage that demonstrates their dedication to Allah. In Des Moines, Iowa, an inaugural parade for Obama included a simulation of the triumphant entry of Christ in which a facsimile of Obama rode upon a donkey. As the reproduction made its way down the streets, palm branches were handed out to onlookers so that they could wave them like Christs adorers did in the 21st chapter of Matthew. Several ministries including the Christian Defense Coalitionhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 51 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMand Faith and Action came together to perform what was heralded as a first for US presidential inaugurationsapplying anointing oil to the doorposts of the arched doorway that Obama passed through as he moved to the platform on the West Front of the Capital to be sworn in. Congressman Paul Broun (Georgia) was part of the ritual and joined Reverend Rob Schenck, who said, Anointing with oil is a rich tradition in the Bible and symbolizes consecration, or setting something apart for Gods use. Not content with just using sacred anointing oil to consecrate Obama for Gods use, approximately two-thousand New Agers, Wiccans and Shamans gathered at Dupont Circlechosen because it is considered the gay center of Washington DCas well as being the point of the left ear of the Masonic street Pentagram north of the White Houseto participate in a cleansing ceremony to purge the White House of evil spirits (which they said were brought there by Bush) for Obama. A Shaman officiated the event, lighting bundles of sage, which smoldered and gave off thick blue aromatic smoke. Saging, as it is called, is believed by Wiccan tradition to drive away evil spirits. [30] Even the conventional inaugural prayers, which have been historically offered during US presidential installation ceremonies, carried an unparalleled New Age flavor this time around. Rick Warren, considered Americas Christian pastor, rendered a blessing in the name of the Muslim version of Jesus (Isa), while the Bishop of New Hampshire, Gene Robinson invoked the God of our many understandings. While all this was highly unusual, even unprecedented, it was not surprising. Obama had spent significant time during the campaign distancing himself from conservative Christians, evangelicals and especially the Religious Right (which had held prominent sway over Republicans since RonaldPage 46Reagan held office) countering that his faith was more universalist and unconvinced of Bible inerrancy. In a 5-minute video available on YouTube, a pre-election speech by Obama was highly cynical of Bible authority and even derided specific Old and New Testament scriptures. Whatever we once were, Obama says on the video, were no longer a Christian nation, adding, Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than religionspecific values this is going to be difficult for some who believe in the inerrancy of the Bible as many evangelicals do. Consequently, the conscious effort by Obama to reorient America away from conventional Christianity was widely embraced by people who identified with the man who carried a tiny idol of the Hindu god Hanuman in his pocketwhose blessings he sought in the race to the White Housetogether with a Madonna and child. For Obama, who grew up in a household where the Bible, the Koran and the Bhagvat Gita sat on a shelf side by side, organized religion was best defined as closed-mindedness dressed in the garb of piety, but a useful political tool nonetheless. And so he used it masterfully, and earned a cult following while doing so. By February 2009, Obama had replaced Jesus Christ as Americas No. 1 hero according to a Harris poll, and dedication to his come-one come-all mysticism has continued to spread, with evangelists of the new religion calling forhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 52 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthe tired faith of our fathers to be replaced with a global new one. Terry Neal, writing for the Hamilton Spectator is such a disciple, and proclaims boldly: The faiths of our fathers are tired now only a global world view will suffice. The marriage of a believable faith with the husbandry of government is the union that must be contracted. This has to occur under Obama, Neal concludes, for only then will there be peace on earth and goodwill toward all. Although it is more difficult to understand the broad appeal of Obamas New Age philosophy to the many evangelical and Catholic voters who supported him, the phenomenon can be explained to some degree as the result of a changing culture. Over the past 50 years and especially as baby-boomers listened attentively to pastors telling them to focus on human potential and the god within us all, eastern philosophies of Monism, Pantheism, Hinduism, and Self Realization grew, providing Americans with an alluring opportunity to throw off the outdated ideas of fundamental Christianity and to espouse a more enlightened monistic worldview (all is one). Aimed at accomplishing what the builders of the Tower of Babel failed to do (unify the masses of the world under a single religious umbrella), God was viewed as pantheistic and humans were finally understood to be divine members of the whole that God is. Pagans argue this principle of inner divinity is older than Christianity, which is true. The gospel according to such New Age conceptsa gospel of becoming god is as old as the fall of man. It began when the serpent said to the woman ye shall be as gods (Gen. 3:5), and it will zenith during the reign of the anti-Christian god-king.A NOD FROM THE CRAFT & THE ALTAR OF ZEUSIt would be pleasant to think that using the Bible during the US Presidential Oath of Office actually means something to those who place their hand on it and swear to faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States so help me God. But Obama, who had to repeat his swearing in ceremony after the word faithfully was garbled by Chief Justice John Roberts during the inauguration, did so the following day in the Map Room of the White House before a press pool and a small group of aides, and this time, the Oath was administered without the use of a Bible, insinuating to some that the Good Book was onlyPage 47public eye-candy in the first instance and also that the Oath of Barack Hussein Obama was biblically invalid. While this may seem trivial to the average person, what it means to secret orders is consequential. Groups such as Masons (who honored Obama with the first-ever-inaugural ball in Washington, DC, January 20th, 2009) esteem rituals, gestures, the use of books such as the Bible, and Oaths taken by heads of State to be of the highest mystical importance. This is why everything they do is administered through appropriate rituals, initiations and incitations. Ethereal powerincluding supernatural agentscan be manipulated, bound andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 53 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMreleased to execute blessings or curses as a result of proper oaths. Breaking an oath can likewise result in dire repercussion in their opinion. Because this is not taken lightly by occultists, members of the Craft would have a difficult time believing the Oath of Office of the President of the USone of the most hallowed American traditionswas so easily flubbed. The very beginning of the Oath, I do solemnly swear, is a spiritual petition. The word solemn means an invocation of a religious sanction or entreaty before deity to witness, sanction and bless the binding nature of the ceremony to carry out the office or duty. The oath also binds the individual before God to faithfully execute the covenant. Thus government representatives make an oath before taking public office, and witnesses in a court of law take an oath to swear to tell the truth before offering testimony. These principles are deeply rooted in the Judeo-Christian faith as well as most other religions. Though there is no way of knowing what the Presidential Oath of Office deeply means to Obama or whether the blunder and redo of the swearing in ceremony was anything more than an accident, the unprecedented gaffe was suspicious to some as possibly representing important hidden meaning. Misgivings over it were additionally compounded when reflected against other curious activities and declarations by Barack Obama, which most of the media missed, downplayed, or simply refused to report on, that strongly connected his emergence with occult mythology identified in the Bible as both prophetic and demonic. An extraordinary example of this was when Obama gave his speech in Berlin, Germany, on July 24th, 2008, titled The World that Stands as One. More than a few students of occult history took notice of the symbolism and location of the event, even causing some who until then had rejected any antichrist labels hurled at Obama to reconsider their position. This included respected Catholic writer Michael OBrien, best known for his apocalyptic novel Father Elijah. OBrien had received numerous letters and emails from subscribers and visitors to his website wondering if Obama was the Antichrist. At first OBrien wrote that this was not possible. Then a friend that had seen Obamas speech in Berlin called him, talking about how mesmerizing the speech was and that an announcer over German radio had said: We have just heard the next President of the United States and the future President of the World. By now Obama was conveying an unusual likeness to the Antichrist character of his novel. After watching the Berlin speech several times for himself, OBrien sent out a newsletter in which he admitted that, while he still doubted Obama was the prophesied ruler of the end times, he had come to believe he was a carrier of a deadly moral virus, indeed a kind of anti-apostle spreading concepts and agendas that are not only anti-Christ but anti-Page 48human as well. OBrien finally conceded Obama could be instrumental in ushering in the dreaded Great Tribulation period, and worse, that he was of the spirit of Antichrist. After Obamas term of office was underway, OBrien pointed out the numerous foreign andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 54 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMdomestic problems Obama was facing, including wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the possibility of a new war with Iran, and issues related to the crumbling financial systems, saying these obstacles could overshadow Obama and lead to his defeat in the next presidential election. OBrien then added in what was a clear reference to the coming of Antichrist, Alternatively, he could become the Great Facilitator, negotiator, peacemaker, working marvels throughout the world as he moves from one seemingly unsolvable problem to another. Because it is true that any significant public political event requires both forethought and symbolic meaning, the location where Obama gave his Berlin speech in front of Berlins Victory Column contributed to OBriens conclusions. The site was offensive to educated Germans as well as to Christians and Jews because of its ties to Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. It was nevertheless oddly appropriate, for it was upon this exact location that Hitler had planned to enthrone himself in the Welthauptstadt Germaniathe new World Capital upon winning World War II. During the 1930s, Hitler commissioned Albert Speer the first architect of the Third Reich to design the new capital. As part of the plans, the Siegessule or Berlin Victory Columna 226-foot monument topped by a golden winged figure representing Borussia, the female personification of Prussia, and Victoria, the cult goddess of military victorywas removed from its location in front of the Reichstag building in 1939 and relocated to its current location in the Tiergarten, a 495 acre park in the middle of Berlin where Obama gave his speech in front of the Nazi symbol. Rainer Brderle, deputy leader of the liberal political party Free Democrats in Germany complained to the newspaper Bild am Sonntag: The Siegessule in Berlin was moved to where it is now by Adolf Hitler. He saw it as a symbol of German superiority and of the victorious wars against Denmark, Austria and France. This represented a serious question In Brderles mind as to whether Barack Obama was advised correctly in his choice of the Siegessule as the site to hold a speech on his vision for a more cooperative world. [36] Another German politician named Andreas Schockenhoff was equally disturbed, saying, It is a problematic symbol. Evidently it was not problematic for Obama, who stood in front of it and saluted the German audience in a way eerily similar to what Adolf Hitler used to do, followed by thousands returning the salute, which is against German law. When Obama ended his speech in front of the war goddess, he said, With an eye toward the future, with resolve in our hearts, let us remember this history, and answer our destiny, and remake the world once again. This ishttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 55 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 49exactly what Hitler had promised to do and exactly where he had planned to memorialize it. Of greater significance and not far from where Obama delivered his rousing speech, is the Great Altar of Zeus in the Pergamon Museum. According to several reports, Obama visited the Great Altar while in Berlin, which is especially important given what he did on returning to the United States. Before we examine Obamas revealing actions, consider carefully what the Bible says about the Altar of Zeus in the letter to the church in Pergamos (Pergamum, Pergamon). And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satans seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and has not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth (Rev. 2:12-13).In the Greek, the phrase where Satans seat is literally means, where a throne to Satan is. Scholars identify this throne or seat as the Great Altar of Zeus that existed in Pergamos at that time. So important was the worship of Zeus in ancient Pergamos that perpetual sacrifices were offered to him upon the towering and famous 40-foot high altar. Antipas, the first leader and martyr of the early Christian church is believed to have been slain on this altar, slowly roasting to death inside the statue of a bull, the symbol and companion of Zeus. The phrase in Revelation 2:13 wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth is considered a citation of this event. Approximately two-thousand years after Revelation 2:13 was written, German archeologists removed the massive altar of Zeus from the ruins of Pergamos and took it to Berlin, where it was restored as the centerpiece of the Pergamon Museum. It is here that Hitler first adored it, later building an outdoor replica of it from which he gave a series of speeches that mesmerized many Germans. Fast forward about another 75 years, says blogger El Gallo. Another charismatic young politician mesmerizes huge German crowds with a rousing speech in Berlin. Barack Hussein Obama. [and] did Barack Obama visit the Great Altar of Zeus? Presumably he did. [38] Whether Obama received inspiration from the throne of Satan while in Berlin or not, what he did next was astonishing. Upon returning to the United States, he immediately commissioned the construction of a Greekcolumned stage from which he made his acceptance speech for his partys nomination. Because Greek temples such as those built to honor Zeus were thought to househttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 56 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthe patron deity, the GOP ridiculed Obama, mocking him as playing Zeus of Mount Olympus and accusing his supporters of kneeling before the Temple of Obama. The New York Post ran an enlightening ConventionPage 50Special supplement on August 28th, 2008 with the telling headline: O MY GOD: DEMS ERECT OBAMA TEMPLE blazoned across the front cover. But it was not until blogger Joel Richardson pointed out how the design of Obamas stage was a dead ringer for the Great Altar of Zeus that Obamas campaign managers tried to explain away the design as being a conglomeration representing the portico of the White House with the U.S. capital building. But experts agreed with Richardson, Gallo wrote, it was a replica of the Great Altar of Pergamum. Thus, incredibly, like Hitler, Obama had honored the goddess Victoria with his presence before ordering a replica of the biblical throne of Satan built, upon which he accepted his date with destiny. A final troubling disclosure at the conclusion of this entry may cast light on why Obama seemed fascinated with such anti-Christian symbolism in the lead-up to his election victory. A Hadith (tradition) sacred to Shiite Islam from the 17th century contains a prophecy from Ali ibn Abi-Talib, which predicts that just before the return of the Mahdi (the end-times redeemer of Islam), a tall black man will assume the reins of government in the West. This leader will command the strongest army on earth and will bear a clear sign from the third imam, Hussein. The prophecy concludes that: Shiites should have no doubt that he is with us. Does this Islamic prophecy identify Obama as the promised warrior who comes to help the savior of Shiite Muslims conquer the world? Amir Taheri asked this very question for Forbes Magazine in October, 2008, pointing out how Obamas first and second namesBarack Husseinmean the blessing of Hussein in Arabic and Persian while his family name, Obama, written in the Persian alphabet, reads O Ba Ma, which means he is with us, the magic formula in Majlisis tradition. Leap forward to 2009, and Barack Hussein Obama on June 4 gave an unprecedented speech to the Muslim world from Cairo, Egypt declaring that he is launching a new era between the United States and the Muslim world. For the first time, Obama was forthright about his Muslim heritage and stated that the United Stateswhich he is on record as saying is no longer a Christian nationis now one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. Newsweek editor Evan Thomas followed the presidents speech with a declaration reflected in the opinion of many, that Obama is standing above the country, above the world, he is a sort of God.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 57 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMChapter 5WILL THE UNITED STATES GENERATE THE ANTICHRIST? America was designated as the New Atlantis that would lead the world to the Antichrist. The original national bird envisioned by our Masonic leadership in the late 1700s was not the American Eagle, but the Phoenix Bird. This historic fact strongly suggests that, at the right moment in world history, with the world entering through the portals of the KingdomPage 51of Antichrist, America might suddenly be immolated in fiery flames, burning to the ashes; out of these ashes, the New World Order would arise.David Bay, Cutting Edge MinistriesWhen US Representative Nancy Pelosi on January 4, 2007 assumed her roll as speaker of the House at the opening of the 110th Congress, she followed the pattern set by George W. Bush and his old man, infusing a loaded statement concerning the founding fathers, saying they were so confident in the America they were advancing, they put on the seal, the great seal of the United States, novus ordo secloruma new order for the centuries. Pelosi did not go into detail as to why she considered the phrase Novus Ordo Seclorum important dialectic during the momentous changeover of the control of congress, nor did she add why this expression exists beneath the unfinished pyramid and the All Seeing Eye (Eye of Horus/Osiris/Apollo) in the Great Seal of the United States in the first place. But her allusion to it was not coincidental, and the origins of the motto and the importance behind the increase in references to the cryptic passage by government insiders in recent years will become evident soon enough. Undoubtedly upon reading the next few entries, low-level Masons who are intentionally kept in the dark by their superiors will write to complain about the stereotype of them as members in a secret plot toward global domination. Truth is, most Masons are moral people that know nothing about the goals of the Uber Echelon above them. Yet respected historians including some Masonic writers admit to what Gary Lachman in his book, Politics and the Occult called the most sensational historical association between Freemasons and American occult politics. Citing the works of professors like Robert Hieronimus, Lachman says, the United States isor at least was originally planned to be the kind of utopia aimed at by the Rosicrucians. Furthermore, Lachman writes, Washington, D.C. was laid out according to the precepts of sacred geometry associated with Freemasonry. That a Rosicrucian-Masonic brotherhood was involved in the American and French as well ashttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 58 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMEuropean revolutions is indisputable today. As many as 44 (though probably a lower number) of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence were Freemasons. Numerous US Presidents were also part of The Craft, including Washington, Monroe, Jackson, Polk, Buchanan, A. Johnson, Garfield, McKinley, T. Roosevelt, Taft, Harding, F. Roosevelt, Truman, L.B. Johnson and Ford. Other elites in the Order included Benjamin Franklin, Paul Revere, and so on, and Thomas Jefferson was suspected but never proven to be a Brother in the Lodge. Besides membership, the question of whether the Order of Freemasons engineered the US City named after Americas first president according to an occult grand-design is something that a growing body of historians and researchers are coming around to. David Ovason, who became a Mason after writing The Secret Architecture of our Nations Capital: the Masons and the Building of Washington, D.C., argues effectively that the citys layout intentionally incorporated the esoteric belief-system of Freemasonry, especially as it involved astrologically alighning the capital with the constellation Virgo (Isis). In 1793 when George Washington sanctioned the laying of the capital buildings cornerstone, he did so wearing a Masonic apron emblazoned with the brotherhoods symbols. For occult expert and 33rd Degree Freemason Manly P. Hall, this made perfect sense. Was Francis Bacons vision of the New Atlantis a prophetic dream of the great civilization, which was so soon to rise upon the soilPage 52of the New World? he asked in The Secret Teachings of All Ages. It cannot be doubted that the secret societiesconspired to establish [such] upon the American continent. Hall continued that historical incidents in the early development of the United States clearly bore the influence of that secret body, which has so long guided the destinies of peoples and religions. By them nations are created as vehicles for the promulgation of ideals, and while nations are true to these ideals they survive; when they vary from them, they vanish like the Atlantis of old which had ceased to know the gods. For those unfamiliar with this secret American-Masonic history or who do not have time to dedicate to the study, I cannot recommend highly enough an award-winning film series on the subject from Adullam Films now available on DVD (at places like SurvivorMall.com). The three films in The Secret Mysteries Of Americas Beginnings are a perfect primer for understanding the fascinating history behind the founding of America as the fulfillment of Bacons Rosicrucian New Atlantis and what this portends for humanity today. The three DVD series includes: Volume OneSecret Mysetries Of Americas Beginnings: The New Atlantis; Volume TwoRiddles In Stone: The Secret Architecture Of Washington, D.C.; and Volume ThreeEye Of The Phoenix: Secrets Of The Dollar Bill. Filmmaker Christian J. Pinto also kindly provided the Washington, D.C. street map included in this entry. Involvement by Freemasons in the development of early America and the symbolic layout of Washington, D.C. as the Capital for the New Atlantis has been so well documented over the last two decades that even many Masons have ceased denying the affiliation.

For obvious reasons, while modern Masons may openly admit these days to involvement by their Jacobite ancestors toward establishing the foundation for a utopian New World Order in Washington, D.C., most vigorously deny that the talisman-like layout of the streets, government buildings and Masonic monuments were meant for what researcher David Bay calls an electrictype grid that pulsates with Luciferic power 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Notwithstanding this denial, the governments own records explain otherwise, clearly stating that the Capitals Design was shepherded by those who wanted it to reflect dedication to pagan gods. For instance the article The Most Approved Plan: ThePage 53Competition for the Capitols Design on the Library of Congresss website tells how, after advertising a competition for the design of Government Center in D.C., Washington, Jefferson, and the Commissioners of the District of Colombia were disappointed by the entries, and a design based on The Roman Pantheonthe circular domed rotunda dedicated to all pagan godswas suggested by Jefferson, who later shepherded it through several transformations. Freemason David Ovason adds that when the Cornerstone of the US Capital building was laid; it was done through Masonic ritual meant to procure approval of the pagan gods. As recorded in two bronze panels on the Senate doors of the Capital, George Washington is seen standing in front of a Mason who holds two versions of the Masonic square, while he himself uses a Masonic trowel on the cornerstone. It is the apron Washington so famously wore that day that bears specific Masonic symbolism, which Ovason explains as designed to please the invisible agencies who watched over the event. Undoubtedly, invisible agencies were present at the cornerstone ceremony, he says, but they were made visible in the aprons symbolism. The radiant eye represented the invisible presence of the Great Architectthe high Spiritual Being whohttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 60 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMhad been invited by prayer and ritual to oversee the ceremonial. The radiant eye was the sun-eye, or Spiritual Sun [Horus/Osiris/Apollo]. Acknowledgment to such pagan gods through the use of images and symbols by Masons is interesting given their avowed consecration of the Bible, a book that clearly forbids this type activity as devotion to demons. In Acts 7:41-42 it explains that when men serve idols, they are worshipping the host or army of heaven. Psalms 96:5 adds, For all the gods of the nations are idols (elilim, LXX daimonia [demons]). Other references conclude that idols of stone or relevant imagery, such as permeates Washington, D.C., are elilim (empty, nothing, vanity); but that behind these images exist the true dynamic of idolatrydemons. The Apostle Paul confirmed this in 1 Corinthians 10:20, saying, the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. Acknowledgment to pagan gods through the use of images and symbols by Masons is interesting given their avowed consecration of the Bible, a book that clearly forbids this type activity as devotion to demons. Yet metaphysicians that do not rely solely on the Bible for authority nonetheless often agree that powerful non-human energies including evil ones can emanate from symbols and, once released, take on a mind of their own. Writing about the Masonic involvement in the French Revolution, Gary Lachman makes an extraordinary and important observation about immaterial destructive forceswhich had unseen plans of their ownreleased as a result of occult politics: Cazotte himself was aware of the dangerous energies unleashed by the Revolution. Although Gazotte didnt use the term, he would no doubt have agreed that, whatever startedPage 54it, the Revolution soon took on a life of its own, coming under the power of an egregore, Greek for watcher, a kind of immaterial entity that is created by and presides over a human activity or collective. According to the anonymous author of the fascinating Meditations on the Tarot, there are no good egregores, only negative ones. True or not, egregores can nevertheless be engendered by the collective will and imagination of nations. As Joscelyn Godwin points out, an egregore is augmented by human belief, ritual and especially by sacrifice. If it is sufficiently nourished by such energies, the egregore can take on a life of its own and appear to be an independent, personal divinity, with a limited power on behalf of its devotees and an unlimited appetite for their future devotion. If, as some esotericists believe, human conflicts are the result of spiritual forces for spiritualhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 61 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMends, and these forces are not all good, then collective catastrophes like the French Revolution take on a different significance.In addition to egregores or demons by any other name being drawnlike flies to a lightbulbto men, and energized through symbols, statues and rituals, Ovason says the dedication of the US Capital Building cornerstone in particular had to be done at a certain astrological time related to the Zodiacal constellation Virgo (Isis), while Jupiter was rising in Scorpio, because the cornerstone ceremonial was designed not only to gain the approval of the spiritual beings, but also to ensure that these were content that the building was being brought into the world at the right time. Ovason later adds more directly, whoever arranged for Virgo to be so consistently operative during foundation and cornerstone ceremonies, must have been alert to the fact that they were inviting some archetype, or spritual being, to direct the destiny of the city (itallics in the original, pg 361). Finally Ovason hints who the spiritual being governing the Capital of the United States is: a medieval esotericist. Would have said that Washington, D.C., was governed by the intelligency Hamaliel, the spiritual entity which ruled Virgo, and which worked hand in hand with Mercury (pg 373). Hamaliel is an evil adversary of the cherubim of God, serving under Lilith, whom earlier we wrote about concerning her devotees, which gather annually to honor her at the Bohemian Grove. Every Aug. 10, an astrological event reoccurs in the sky above Washington, tying the city to the pagan Virgoknown in ancient Egypt as the goddess Isis. At dusk, as golden light turns brick facades a dusty rose, the shimmering sun floats a few degrees just to the left of Pennsylvania Avenue, gradually inching to the right until it sets directly over the famous street, writes Julie Duin. If the horizon remains cloudless, three stars are visible in a straight line from the Capitol to the White House to the skies in the west. Known as Regulus, Arcturus and Spica, the stars form a right-angled triangle framing the constellation of Virgo. Such mysticism incorporated into the design of Washington, DC, by Freemasons for summoning the timing, presence and approval of these invisible agents was a formula perfected in pagan Rome. John Fellows explains why: they consulted the gods, to know if the enterprise would be acceptable to them, and if they approved of the day chosen to begin the work they invoked, besides the gods of the country, the gods to whose protection the new city was recommended, which was done secretly, because it was necessary that the tutelary gods should be unknown to the vulgar.Page 55It may come as little surprise then that when George W. Bush in a speech the day before his second inaugural said the United States had a calling from beyond the stars (a disturbing statement taken directly from the satanic Necronomicon fiction concerning alien creator gods) that the Capital Building had been intentionally set in the head of a Masonic Owl Figure, which in turn stands atop thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 62 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMWhite House, located on the chin of the Pentagramic Goat of Mendes. The upside-down pentagram or baphomet, clearly visible in the D.C. street layout, represents the goats head and is considered the most powerful symbol in Satanism, while the owl figure is a well-known representative of the Masonic, Illuminati, Bohemian owl of wisdom incarnation of Athene, Minerva, Lilith and Hecate. Occultists around the world understand the power of these D.C. symbols and rituals, and realize they are not only for conveying psychological concepts, but actually to coerce the mysterious and potent supernaturalism invited to take residence there. This belief is deeply preserved in all of the Babylonian, Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Kabalistic symbolism that is a part of Masonic history, and according to famous Freemason, Foster Bailey, these symbols intentionally hide a secret which veils mysterious forces. These energies when released can have a potent effect. Scottish Philosopher Thomas Carlyle once famously added: By symbols, accordingly, is man guided and commanded, made happy, made wretched. Masons as a result are under oath never to reveal the true meaning of their symbols, and when somehow they are compelled to offer explanation, they falsify the statement, even to lower degree Masons as explained by Sovereign Grand Commander Albert Pike in the Masonic handbook Morals and Dogma: Masonry, like all the Religions, all the Mysteries, Hermetic, and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to mislead those who deserve only to be misled; to conceal the Truth, which it calls Light, from them, and to draw them away from it. Substantial reasons exist for why the designers of Washingtons Government Center would have wanted to obscure the meaning behind the occultic layout of Americas capital. If the public in general had been prematurely convinced of the end-game prophesied in the D.C. symbolism, it would have been beyond the acceptance of prior generations who likely would have demanded change in leaders and facilities. But as time has moved forward and increasingly it has become necessary for public understanding of Americas heritage and intended purpose, little by littleeither by providence, promotion, or even resistancea clearer picture has emerged of what Manly P. Hall called The Secret Destiny of America. According to the symbolism in Washington, D.C., the secret destiny of America includes future national and global subservience to the god of Freemasonry, a deity most Americans would not imagine when reciting the pledge of allegiance to one nation under God. In fact, the idea by some that the United States was established as a monotheistic Christian nation by those who designed Washington, D.C., and that the God referred to on American currency is a Judeo-Christian one, is a puzzling conclusion when reflected against the deistic beliefs of so many of the founding fathers (as perpetually viewed in the Supreme Architect deism of Freemasons and in the Supreme Judge of the world and Divine Providence notations in the Declaration of Independence) and the countless pagan icons that dominate the symbols, statues, buildings and seals carefully drafted under official government auspices. The Great Seal of the United States, which 33rd Degree Mason Manly P. Hall rightly called the signature of that exalted body of Masons who designed America for a peculiar and particular purpose bears rich symbolism forecasting anything but Christianity. In fact, whenhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 63 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 56Christians in the 1800s argued that a hypothetical annihilation of the US would lead to antiquaries of succeeding centuries concluding that America had been a heathen nation based on symbolism of the Great Seal, Congress was pushed to create something reflecting the Christian faith of so many of its citizens. US President and Freemason Theodore Roosevelt strongly opposed this idea while other Masons were not as frustrated with the plan. Given the ambivalence of the term God and the axiom that, interpreted within the context of the Great Seal symbolism this would certainly not infer a traditional Christian God, the slogan In God We Trust (whoever you believe that is) was accommodated by Masons and other illuminatus and so approved as the official US motto. To illustrate the point that one would not determine the God in Americas official motto refers to the Father of Jesus Christ or a Biblical Trinity, imagine yourself as a space traveler who visits earth in a fictional post-apocalyptic world. Digging through the rubble of the once thriving planet, you come across a copy of a US One Dollar Bill with the two-sided Great Seal of the United States joined in the middle by the phrase IN GOD WE TRUST. Upon consideration, you ask yourself, what GOD did this refer to? With no preconceptions you allow the symbolism on the seal to speak for itself, from which you quickly determine that this had been a great culture who worshipped Egyptian and Greek deities, especially a particular solar one whose all-seeing eye glared from atop an unfinished Egyptian pyramid. Upon further investigation into the specific beliefs of the strange group whose members had influenced the Great Seal, you discover from their highest masters, including one Illustrious Albert Pike, that the Sun God they venerated so highly had been known to them at various times in history by the names Apollo, Osiris and Nimrod. Then, you decode something even more importanta hidden divination in the Great Seal that prophesied a time when this god would return to Earth in a physical body. His coming, according to the information you gleaned from the draftsmen of the Great Seal, would herald a New World Order. In retrospect, you wonder: Was this prophesied advent on this Great Seal the fomenter of destruction that annihilated what at once was so beautiful a world?Chapter 6THE FIRST PART OF THE FINAL MYSTERY OF THE GREAT SEALhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 64 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMNot only were many of the founders of the United States Government Masons, but they received aid from a secret and august body existing in Europe, which helped them to establish this country for a peculiar and particular purpose known only to the initiated few.Page 57The Great Seal is the signature of this exalted bodyunseen and for the most part unknown and the unfinished pyramid upon its reverse side is a trestleboard setting forth symbolically the task to the accomplishment of which the United States Government was dedicated from the day of its inception.Manly P. Hall, 33rd Degree Freemason Of all the Masonic symbols associated with the founding of America, Manly Hall viewed the design of the Great Seal of the United States as the highest signature of occult planning by Freemasons. This was not only due to the repetition of the number 13, the pentagram shapes, the uncapped pyramid or the Phoenix-Eagle, but Hall, like other experts in mystical literature and Western esoteric tradition understood the mass of occult and Masonic symbols on the Great Seal represented both the tangible ambitions of a new society and a metaphysical concept attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, which means that visible matter is mirrored by unseen reality, or, as above, so below. Hall believed what this meant practically was that only students of archaic or esoteric symbolism would be able to decipher the true meaning hidden within the subterfuge of the seals design and that the symbolism was thus intended to convey two sets of meaningthe first for non-illuminates having to do with certain natural or historical issues perceived to be important to society; and the second deeper occult truisms meant for comprehension by members of the exalted Order. While examining the mountains of literature publicly available on the Great Seal including its history from the original resolution in 1776 to its final approval in 1782, it is important to note that general harmony exists among researchers concerning the superficial interpretation of the primary symbols. For instance the obverse side of the Great Seal portrays a Bald Eagle clutching a bundle of arrows in its left talon, while in its right claw it grips an olive branch. The eagle is looking to the right, indicating that, while the United States prefers peace, it is always ready to go to war if necessary. The original 13 colonies are said to be represented in the 13 leaves of the olive branch, 13 olives on the branch, 13 bars and stripes in the shield, 13 letters in the phrase E Pluribus Unum and the 13 stars above the eagles head (which, as researchers point out, forms a hexagram). On the reverse of the seal the number 13 continues in the stone layers of the pyramid and the 13 letters of Annuit Coeptis.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 65 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMYet according to esotericists like Hall, the extraordinary truth about the number 13 so affixed to the Great Seal was actually more than representation of the original colonies. It was a marker for those who understood it as a Masonic power number, sacred to the Moon among other things and representative of the head of Isis, while the Eagle, Hall wrote, was a shrewd masquerade for the mythical Phoenix so important to Masonic mysticism. Hall partly came to this conclusion based on the early seal prototype of William Barton showing a Phoenix in its nest of flames.Page 58Most of the designs originally submitted had the Phoenix bird on its nest of flames as the central motif, Hall said. Its selection would of course have been appropriate. [because] the Phoenix is one sign of the secret orders of the ancient world and of the initiate of those orders, for it was common to refer to one who had been accepted into the temples as a man twice-born, or re-born. Wisdom confers a new life, and those who become wise are born again. Hall went on in The Secret Destiny of America: The Phoenix symbol is important in another way, as an emblem among nearly all civilized nations of royalty, power, superiority, and immortality. The Phoenix of China is identical in meaning with the Phoenix of Egypt; and the Phoenix of the Greeks is the same as the Thunder Bird of the American Indians It is immediately evident that the bird on the original seal is not an eagle but the Phoenix. The beak is of a different shape, the neck is much longer, and the small tuft of hair at the back of the head leaves no doubt as to the artists intention. [1] Hall then acknowledged that if the design on the obverse side of the seal is stamped with the signature of the Masons, the design on the reverse was even more related to the Orders mysteries,casting the United States within the societys secret scheme to fulfill the Baconian dream of a New Atlantis by establishing America as the capital of the New World Order. Hall continues: Here is represented the great pyramid of Gizah, composed of 13 rows of masonry, showing 72 stones. The pyramid is without a cap stone, and above its upper platform floats a triangle containing the All-Seeing Eye surrounded by rays of light The Pyramid of Gizah was believed by the ancient Egyptians to be the shrine tomb of the god Hermes, or Thot, the personification of Universal Wisdom.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 66 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMNo trace has ever been found of the cap of the great pyramid. A flat platform about thirty feet square gives no indication that this part of the structure was ever otherwise finished; and this is appropriate, as the Pyramid represents human society itself, imperfect and incomplete. The structures ascending converging angles and faces represent the common aspiration of humankind; above floats the symbol of the esoteric orders, the radiant triangle with its all-seeing eye There is a legend that in the lost Atlantis stood a great university in which originated most of the arts and sciences of the present race. The University was in the form of an immense pyramid with many galleries and corridors, and on the top was an observatory for the study of the stars. This temple to the sciences in the old Atlantis is shadowed forth in the seal of the new Atlantis. Was it the society of the unknown philosophers who scaled the new nation with the eternal emblems, that all the nations might know the purpose for which the new country had been founded?Page 59The combination of the Phoenix, the pyramid, and the all-seeing eye is more than chance or coincidence. There is nothing about the early struggles of the colonists to suggest such a selection to farmers, shopkeepers, and country gentlemen. There is only one possible origin for these symbols, and that is the secret societies which came to this country 150 years before the Revolutionary War. Most of the patriots who achieved American independence belonged to these societies, and derived their inspiration, courage, and high purpose from the ancient teaching. There can be no question that the great seal was directly inspired by these orders of the human Quest, and that it set forth the purpose for this nation as that purpose was seen and known to the Founding Fathers. The monogram of the new Atlantis reveals this continent as set apart for the accomplishment of the great workhere is to arise the pyramid of human aspiration, the school of the secret sciences. Besides Manly Hall, late scholars that recognized the occult symbolism of the Great Seal as pointing to this secret destiny of America included Rhodes Scholar James H. Billington and Harvard Professor Charles Eliot Norton, who described the Great Seal as hardly other than an emblem of a Masonic Fraternity. In 1846, 33rd Degree Freemason and noted author James D. Carter inadvertently confirmed this as well when he admitted the Masonic symbolism is clearly known whenever an informed Mason examines the Great Seal. But for all the volumes that were written in the early years about the arcane meaning behind the obvious symbols on the Great Seal of the United States, it was not until the 1930s that, perhaps byhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 67 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMprovidence, the significance of the Great Seal started finding its defining moment. It happened when occult minded 32nd Degree Mason, Henry Wallace, the Secretary of Agriculture for the United States in 1934 became intrigued with the meaning behind the Great Seal. Wallace had been a disciple of Agni Yoga Society founder and theosophist, Nicholas Roerich, whose devotion to mysticism was increasingly focused on apocalyptic themes surrounding the coming of a new earthly order. This came to light publicly when Wallace ran as Vice President in the 1940 presidential election and was threatened with embarrassment by the Republicans, who had come into possession of a series of letters written by Wallace in the 1930s. The letters were addressed to Roerich as Dear Guru and described the anticipation Wallace felt for the breaking of the New Day, a time when a mythical kingdom would arrive on earth accompanied by a special breed of people. The Democrats barely kept the letters from the public by making threats of their own, and Wallace went on to become 33rd Vice President of the United States under the 32nd President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, himself a 32nd Degree Mason with an equal thirst for mysticism. Though Roosevelt would set in motion the push to place the Great Seal on the US One Dollar Bill, it was Wallace who brought the seals significance to Roosevelt, believing the symbolism of the emblems carried inference to Roosevelts New Deal, and, more important, a Masonic prophecy toward a New World Order. Wallace describes the meeting he had with Roosevelt: Roosevelt was first struck with the representation of the all-seeing eyea Masonic representation of the Great Architect of the Universe. Next, he was impressed with the idea that the foundation for the new order of the ages had been laid in 1776 but that it would bePage 60completed only under the eye of the Great Architect. Roosevelt, like myself, was a 32nd Degree Mason. He suggested that the Seal be put on the dollar bill and took the matter up with the Secretary of the Treasury [also a Freemason].. He brought it up in a Cabinet meeting and asked James Farley [Postmaster General and a Roman Catholic] if he thought the Catholics would have any objection to the All Seeing Eye which he as a Mason looked on as a Masonic symbol of Deity. Farley said no, there would be no objection. It is natural to assume Wallace and Roosevelt also pondered the Eagle on the Great Seal with its 32 feathers on the right wing and 33 on the left representing the 32nd and 33rd Degrees of Freemasonry, because in addition to being 32nd Degree Masons, Roosevelt was the 32nd President and Wallace the 33rd Vice President, an especially interesting numerological coincidence given that Roosevelt was succeeded by Harry Truman, the 33rd President of the United States and a 33rd Degree Freemason. As a mystic and Mason, Wallace undoubtedly believed these numbers were not coincidence and furthermore, what is now known, is that Wallace viewed the unfinished pyramid with the all-seeing eye hovering above it on the Great Seal as a prophecy about the dawn of a New World with America at its head. Whenever the United States assumed its position as the new Capital of the World, Wallacehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 68 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMbelieved, the Grand Architect would return and metaphorically the all-seeing eye would be fitted atop the Great Seal Pyramid as the finished apex stone. Wallace may even have imagined himself as the mysterious global leader who would fulfill this oracular scheme. In Henry Wallace the Man and the Myth, Dwight MacDonald pointed out: Just as Wallace thinks of America as the nation destined by God to lead the world, so Wallace thinks of himself as a Messiah, an instrument through whom God will guide America onward and upward. Wallace himself seemed to allude to this belief in 1934 when he wrote: It will take a more definite recognition of the Grand Architect of the Universe before the apex stone [capstone of the pyramid] is finally fitted into place and this nation in the full strength of its power is in position to assume leadership among the nations in inaugurating the New Order of the Ages. Finding or making a more definite recognition of this messianic figure appears to have secretly obsessed Roosevelt and Wallace while also playing a roll in the decision to include the Great Seal on the US Dollar. Both men were fascinated with the concept of a new breed of peoplenew Atlantians for the New Atlantis similar to Hitlers contemporaneous exploration for the Aryan supermenled by an earthly Messiah. Incredibly, if this supernatural leader was to be a magical reincarnation or resurrection of deity, the body or DNA of this savior may have been kept in or represented by a coffin (echoing the coffin symbol on Masonic aprons) cryptically mentioned in correspondence between Wallace and Nicholas Roerich. On March 12, 1933, Wallace wrote Roerich: Dear Guru, I have been thinking of you holding the casketthe sacred most precious casket. And I have thought of the New Country going forward to meet the seven stars under the sign of the three stars. [6]Page 61Investigative mythologist William Henry says this letter from Wallace made it clear that Roosevelt, Nicholas Roerich and Henry Wallace were in search of this Divine Child [and that] they awaited in the New Country [America as the New Atlantis]. Filmmaker Christian J. Pintos 'Eye Of The Phoenix: Secrets Of The Dollar Bill,' discloses intriguing information about Wallaces relationship with Roerich and the sacred most precious casket. When I asked Mr. Pinto what he thought was meant by the phrase going forward to meet the seven stars under the sign of the three stars, and what this had to do with the casket, he emailed me to say: Tom. The seven stars would most likely be at least a partial reference to their Christhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 69 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMfigure (Maitreya) as the one world leader, since in Revelation 1:16, it is Christ who holds seven stars in his right hand. Remember that Roerich was searching for signs of the Christ and the theme of a universal Messiah consumed their ideas. It is further worth considering the writings of Manly P. Hall on these things, since the Roerichs knew Hall personally, and Helena wanted her sons discipled by him. On the symbolism of the number 7, he writes: By the Pythagoreans the heptad 7was called worthy of veneration. It was held to be the number of religion, because man is controlled by seven celestial spirits It was called the number of life . Keywords of the heptad are fortune control, government, judgment that which leads all things to their end.(Hall, Secret Teachings of All Ages, p. 72) In his writings, Hall claimed that the Apocalypse of St. John the Divine (Book of Revelation) was a symbol for the entire pantheon of the pagan mysteries. He describes the Christ figure thus: In the opening chapter of the Apocalypse, St. John describes the Alpha and Omega this Sublime One thus epitomizes the entire sweep of humanitys evolutionary growth past, present, and future. He continues, saying: The seven stars carried by this immense Being in his right hand are the Governors of the world (Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, pp 185-186) Because of the above facts, Pinto believes the occultists idea is that the New Country as the New World Order shall meet the seven stars (be ruled by new governors of the world, whether these are demonic spirits or human beings, perhaps both) under the sign of the three stars, a reference to Sirius, says Pinto, which is the light behind the all-seeing eye above the pyramid, symbolizing the power of Lucifer/Satan. It is also possible the sign of three stars is a reference to Regulus, Arcturus and Spica, which Julie Duin earlier in this series described as forming a straight line from the Capital to the White House during the astrological time related to the dedication of the US Capital building. This would imply the seven stars under the sign of the three stars was a fantastic speculation by Wallace, Roerich and company about the coming reign of a messianic figure from the seat of Washington, DC. As we shall show later, there is a fascinating third possibilitythat the seven stars under the sign of the three stars is a reference to the star systems Pleides and Orion and has everything to do with the Great Seals hidden prophecy concerning a new messiah and where he will come from.Page 62Whatever the case for Wallace, central to the fulfillment of this scheme was the sacred casket that he mentioned in his letter to Roerich, considered in esoteric circles to be the same as the casket or coffin of Osiris, a device partly based on the myth of Osiris as the dying and resurrecting god.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 70 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMAccording to Peter Goodgame in his intriguing book-length article The Giza Discovery [8], the tomb of Osiris may actually have been discovered in Giza in recent years containing DNA related to the deity. Though this is discussed in following chapters, I raise the issue here because Wallace (and perhaps Roosevelt) viewed the All-Seeing Eye above the unfinished pyramid as pointing to the return (or reincarnation) of this savior, whose coming would cap the Pyramid and launch the New World Order. The All-Seeing Eye on the Great Seal is fashioned after the Eye of Horus, the offspring of Osiris (or sometime Osiris himself), as both men surely understood. But did Roosevelt and Wallace also comprehend the terrifying prophecy that until the publishing of the book Apollyon Rising 2012 has been hidden from public view, cleverly concealed within the Great Seal of the United States for more than 200 years, which points to the earthly return of this god? I suspect they may have, as the legend of Hiram Abiffthe original Masonic Grand Master and architect of Solomons Templeis but a retelling of the mythos of Isis and Osiris and of the resurrection motif, as every Mason knows. If political and religious leaders in the United States have since at least the 1930s anticipated the arrival of this Supreme Being, we stand on a disturbing precipice. This entity was known to the Egyptians as Osiris and to the Greeks as Apollothe same deity by different names according to numerous scholars, including Plutarch, the ancient Roman historian. Rudolf Steiner in his Egyptian Myths and Mysteries further acknowledged: The Greeks recognized that Osiris was the same as the god whom they called Apollo. Convincing evidence also exists that even further back in time the historical figure upon whom these myths were based was the legendary King Enmerkar of Uruk, known in the Bible as Nimrod. Peter Goodgame makes reference to this in The Giza Discovery: And just who is this Greek god Apollyon who makes his strange appearance in the book of Revelation? Charles Penglase is an Australian professor who specializes in ancient Greek and Near Eastern religion and mythology. In his book, Greek Myths and Mesopotamia: Parallels and Influence in the Homeric Hymns and Hesiod, Penglase carefully and methodically demonstrates that the Greek myths and legends of Apollo were simply Greek retellings of the Babylonian myths involving the rise to power of the god Marduk, which were themselves based on earlier legends of the Sumerian hunter/hero known as Ninurta. Furthermore, according to David Rohl, the original name for Ninurta was in fact Nimurda, whose historical identity can be traced back to King Enmerkar of Uruk, the very same figure who is known in the Bible as Nimrod. The Greek Historian Herodotus also connected Apollo with Horus, the god whose all-seeing eye stands atop the unfinished pyramid on the Great Seal. This is telling given that the Great Seals mottoes and symbolism relate to both Osiris and Apollo specifically, yet as one. Osiris is the dominant theme of the Egyptian symbols, his resurrection and return, while the mottoes of the seal point directly to Apollo, and the Eagle, a pagan emblem of Jupiter, to Apollos father. Both gods were known to various ancient societies by other names as well. When this is understood, new light is casthttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 71 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 63on the Great Seals semiosis beginning with the phrase, E Pluribus Unum, Latin for out of many, one. While the public has been made to believe E Pluribus Unum refers to United States citizenship being made up of various ethnicity, what becomes clear when this phrase is interpreted within the mystical context of the Great Seal symbolism is that it could easily refer to one god represented by many namesa god known by various ancient cultures as having walked the earth many times under many names, yet was one, orE Pluribus Unum. This concept gains persuasion when harmonized with the other two mottoesAnnuit coeptis and Novus ordo seclorumalso taken from ancient texts related to the god Apollo. The motto annuit coeptis is from Virgils Aeneid, where Ascanius, the son of Aeneas from conquered Troy prays to Apollos father, Jupiter [Zeus]. Charles Thompson, designer of the Great Seals final version, condensed line 625 of book IX of Virgils Aeneid, which reads, Juppiter omnipotes, audacibus annue coeptis (All-powerful Jupiter favors [the] daring undertakings), to annuit coeptis (He approves [our] undertakings). Was Thompson instructed to do this to conceal the true identity of the He of the Great Sealthe mythical father-god Jupiter, who gives Apollo life? The third and most indisputable authentication that the Great Seals symbols and mottoes are in fact a hidden prophesy concerning the return of Apollo is Novus ordo seclorum (a New Order of the Ages), adapted by Charles Thomson in 1782 when designing the Great Seal. According to the official record, Thomsona friend of the Masons and great supporter of Benjamin Franklins American Philosophical Societycreated the phrase from inspiration he found in a prophetic line in Virgils Eclogue IV: Magnus ab integro seclorum nascitur ordo [Virgils Eclogue IV (line 5)], the interpretation of the original Latin being, and the majestic roll of circling centuries begins anew. Ironically, Christians since the middle ages have been led to believe this phrase from the Cumaean Sibyl (a pagan prophetess of Apollo, identified in the Bible as a demonic deceiver, as detailed later) was prophesying the birth of Jesus Christ and that it was this arrival of the Savior that gave rise to the majestic roll of circling centuries begins anew or New Order of the Ages. Virgil himself was put forth as a prophet in this regard, and that is why Dante Alighieri selected him as his guide through the underworld in The Divine Comedy. What is more astonishing is that the Cumaean Sibyl is even prominently featured alongside Old Testament prophets in Michelangelos paintings in the Sistine Chapel. Yet upon reading Virgils text, it is abundantly clear whom the prophetess of Apollo was talking about. The divine son, which comes of the Sibyls prophecy, is to be spawned of a new breed of men sent down from heaven (what Roosevelt, Wallace and Roerich were looking for) when he receives the life of gods, and see Heroes with gods commingling. According to the prophecy, this is Apollo, son of Jupiter (Zeus), who returns to earth through mystical life given to him from the gods when the deity Saturn (Saturn is the Roman version of the biblicalhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 72 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMSatan) returns to reign over the earth in a new golden pagan age. From the beginning of the prophecy we read:Page 64Now the last age by Cumaes Sibyl sung Has come and gone, and the majestic roll Of circling centuries begins anew: Justice returns, returns old Saturns reign, With a new breed of men sent down from heaven. Only do thou, at the boys birth in whom The iron shall cease, the golden race arise, Befriend him, chaste Lucina; tis thine own Apollo reigns. He shall receive the life of gods, and see Heroes with gods commingling, and himself Be seen of them, and with his fathers worth Reign oer a world Assume thy greatness, for the time draws nigh, Dear child of gods, great progeny of Jove [Jupiter/Zeus]! See how it tottersthe worlds orbed might, Earth, and wide ocean, and the vault profound, All, see, enraptured of the coming time! According to Virgil and the Cumaean Sibyl whose prophecy formed the Novus Ordo Seclorum of the Great Seal of the United States, the New World Order begins during a time of chaos when the earth and oceans are tottering, a time like today. This is when the son of promise arrives on earth Apollo incarnatea pagan savior born of a new breed of men sent down from heaven when heroes and gods are blended together. This sounds eerily similar to what the Watchers did during the creation of Nephilim and to what scientists are doing this century through genetic engineering of human-animal chimeras. To understand why such a fanciful prophecy about Apollo, son of Jupiter, returning to earth should be important to you, in ancient literature, Jupiter was the Roman replacement of Yahweh as the greatest of the godsa counter-Yahweh. His son Apollo is a replacement of Jesus, a counter-Jesus. This Apollo comes to rule the final New World Order when Justice returns, returns old Saturns [Satans] reign. The ancient goddess Justice, who returns Satans reign (Saturnia regna, the pagan golden age), was known to the Egyptians as Maat and to the Greeks as Themis, while to the Romans she was Lustitia. Statues and reliefs of her adorn thousands of government buildings and courts around the world, especially in Washington, DC, as familiar Lady Justice, blindfolded and holding scales and a sword. She represents the enforcement of secular law and is, according to the Sibyls conjure, the authority that will require global compliance to the zenith of Satans authority concurrent with the coming of Apollo. Whats more, the Bibles accuracy concerning this subject is alarming, including the idea that pagan Justice will require surrender to a Satanic system in a final World Order under the rule of Jupiters son. In the New Testament, the identity of the god Apollo, repeat-coded in the Great Seal of the United States as the Masonic Messiah that returns to rule the earth, is the same spiritverified by the samehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 73 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMnamethat will inhabit the political leader of the end-times New World Order. According to a key prophecy in the book of Second Thessalonians, the Antichrist will be the progeny or incarnation of the ancient spirit, Apollo. Second Thessalonians 2:3 warns: Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition [Apoleia; Apollyon, Apollo]. Numerous scholarly and classical works identify Apollyon as the god Apollothe Greek deity of death and pestilence, and Websters Dictionary points out that Apollyon was a common variant of Apollo until recent history. An example of this is found in the Classical play by the ancient Greek playwright Aeschylus, The Agamemnon of Aeschylus, where Cassandra repeats more than once, Apollo, thou destroyer, O Apollo, Lord of fairPage 65streets, Apollyon to me. Accordingly, the name Apollo turns up in ancient literature with the verb apollymi or apollyo, destroy and scholars including W.R.F. Browning believe Apostle Paul may have identified the god Apollo as the spirit of Antichrist operating behind the persecuting Roman emperor, Domitian, who wanted to be recognized as Apollo incarnate in his day. Revelation 17:8 also ties the coming of Antichrist with Apollo, revealing that the Beast shall ascend from the bottomless pit and enter him. The Beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the Bottomless Pit, and go into perdition [Apolia, Apollo]: and they that dwell on the Earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the Beast that was, and is not, and yet is (Revelation 17:8). Abaddon is another name for Apollo (Rev. 9:11), identified historically as the king of demonic locusts (Revelation 9:1-11). This means among other things that Apollo is the end-times angel or King of the Abyss that opens the bottomless pit, out of which an army of transgenic locusts erupts upon earth. And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of theirhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 74 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMwings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon (Rev. 9: 1-11). In view of these texts, we recall how Zeusthe Greek identity for the father of Apollowas acknowledged as Satan in Rev. 2:12-13. The fallen angel Apollo who unlocks the bottomless pit and unleashes the thunderous hoards of Great Tribulation locusts is therefore none other than the son of Satan and the spirit that will inhabit Antichrist. This means The First Part of the Final Mystery of the Great Seal of the United States is a prophecy, hidden in plain site by the US Government for more than 200 years, foretelling the return of a terrifying demonic god who seizes control of earth in the New Order of the Ages. This supernatural entity was known and feared in ancient times by different names; Apollo, Osiris, and even further back as Nimrod, who Masons consider to be the father of their institution. The Second Part of the Final Mystery of the Great Seal of the UnitedPage 66States will unveil when Apollo is scheduled to arrive according to the seals cipher. Not to put too fine a point on it, but if the reader doubts the authority of the scriptures cited above concerning the coming of Apollo as Antichrist or the dedication of the Occult Hierarchy to bring the prophecy on the Great Seal about, it is my opinion that the illuminated ones have you right where they want you. In contrast, by understanding the considerable implications of these prophecies, you can better discern why Freemason David Ovason, whose work earned praise from Fred Kleinknecht, Sovereign Grand Commander of the 33rd Degree Supreme Council of Freemasons in Washington, DC, said the dedication of the US Capital Building cornerstone had to be done at the appropriate astrological time, when Jupiter was rising in Scorpio. Jupiter is rising, and Scorpio, which symbolizes wrath, is ruled by Pluto, god of the underworld. Jupiter (Satan) is rising in wrath . . . or, as Revelation 12:12 puts it, Satan is coming in great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. All of which begs the question. Why have multiple references to Novus Ordo Seclorum by Congress members, US Presidents, International Bankers, CFR Members and other illuminatus been exponentially increasing around the world over the last decade, and why did Barack Obama feel compelled to herald the inauguration of his administration by constructing a replica of the Great Altar of Zeus, the father of Apollo? Is it because an occult elite knows something about the imminent fulfillment of the Illuminati-Masonic prophecy involving a False Yahweh (Zeus/Jupiter) and his False Christ (Apollo) coming with the full-force of Pagan Justice, when Satans (Saturns) reign over the world reaches its apex in the New World Order?http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 75 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMChapter 7THE COMING GODS OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER In the E at Delphoi, although the sun represents God Plutarch here associates this supreme god with the Apollon of religion, while in the essay on Isis religion, he is associated with Osiris.

This is he . . . who shall again set up the Golden Age amid the fields where Saturn once reigned.Virgil, Aeneid 6.790 Scholars such as Michael Heiser, Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible and Semitic Languages provide details onPage 67the study of the Divine Councilthe pantheon of divine beings or angels who currently administer the affairs of heaven and earth. Experts in this field of biblical studies typically agree that, beginning at the Tower of Babel, the world and its inhabitants were disinherited by the sovereign God of Israel and placed under the authority of lesser divine beings that became corrupt and disloyal to God in their administration of those nations (Psalm 82). According to the theory, these beings quickly became worshipped on earth as gods following Babel, and because these angels, unlike their human admirers, would continue on earth until the end of time, each spirit behind the pagan attributions was known at miscellaneous times in history and to various cultures by different names. This certainly agrees with the biblical definition of idolatry as the worship of fallen angels, and means the characterization of such spirits as Jupiter, Justice, Osiris, and Isis, can be correctly understood to be titles ascribed to distinct and individual supernaturalism. The spirit behind Apollo was thus a real personality; Osiris actually lived, and still does. Yet Osiris could have been the same entity known elsewhere as Apollo or Dionysus. Numerous Greek historians, including Plutarch, Herodotus, and Diodorus Siculus, observed Osiris of the Egyptians and Dionysus of the Greeks as the same god, while others found Apollo and Dionysus to be one and the same. Since the designers of the Great Seal of the United States incorporated the appropriate Egyptian symbols and Roman-Greek mottoes into the seals scheme to cipher a prophecy about the return of this godApollo-Osiris (aka, Nimrod)ithttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 76 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMseems reasonable that the occultists also perceived the two gods as representing a singular unseen agency. As a result, readers will benefit from understanding the mythos behind these deities. In the mythological records, trace-nuances, which communicate specific traits having to do with the nature of the entity, can be found. This is helpful in understanding the nature of the god that is prophesied to return. THE BEGINNING OF ORGANIZED MYTHOLOGY DAWNS IN SUMERIA It was the year B.C. 3500, and the alluvial desert of the Middle East was alive with spiritual and physical activity. In a valley forged between the twin rivers of the Tigris and the Euphrates, magnificent walled cities awoke to the chatter of busy streets and marketplaces. In what the Greeks would later call Mesopotamia (between the rivers), the worlds first great trade center and civilization had developed. The opulent Sumerian cities of Urthe home of AbramUruk, and Lagash, formed the economic machines of the ancient Middle East, while industries from as far away as Jericho near the Mediterranean Sea, and Catal Huyuk in Asia Minor, competed for the trade opportunities they provided. Laborers from the biblical city of Jericho exported salt into Sumer, and miners from Catal Huyuk prepared obsidian, used in making mirrors, for shipment into the ancient metropolis. But while the prehistoric people of the East looked to the Sumerians for their supply of daily bread, the Sumerians themselves gazed heavenward to the early rising of Utu (Shamash), the allproviding sun god, as he prepared once again to ride across the sky in his chariot. In B.C. 3500, Utu was not alone among the gods. By now the Sumerian pantheon provided the earliest known description of organized mythology consisting of a complex system of more than 3,000 deities covering nearly every detail of nature and human enterprise. There were gods of sunshine and of rain. There were vegetation gods, fertility gods, river gods, animal gods, and gods of the afterlife. There were great godsEnlil (prince of the air), Anu (ruler of the heavens), Enki, (the god of water), and so on. Under these existed a second level of deities, including Nannar the moon god, Utu the sun god, and Inanna, the Queen of Heaven.Page 68A significant question, which has puzzled scholars and historians for more than a millenium is where did the Sumerian deities come from? Since the religion of Sumeria was the first known organized mythology and would greatly influence the foundational beliefs of Assyria, Egypt, Greece, Rome, and others, where does one find the beginning of their many gods? Were the Sumerian deities the product of human imagination, or the distortion of some earlier prehistoric revelation? Were they the mythologizing of certain ancient heros, or, as some New Age followers suggest, the result of an extra-terrestrial alien visitation whose appearance gave birth to the legends and mythological gods? More important, did the gods of Sumeria reflect the emergence of an unknown power operating through pagan dynamics, or were the gods purely the creation of primitive imaginations? These questions are both fascinating and difficult since the gods and goddesses of ancienthttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 77 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMSumeria/Mesopotamia continue to be shrouded in a history of unknown origins. It was as though from out of nowhere the Sumerians sprang onto the scene thousands of years ago, bringing with them the first written language and a corpus of progressive knowledgefrom complicated religious concepts, to an advanced understanding of astrology, chemistry, and mathematics. The questionable origin of the Sumerian culture has caused more than a few orthodox theorists to conclude that these gods, and the subsequent mythologies that grew out of them (Assyrian, Egyptian, etc.), were the diabolical scheme of a regressive and evil supernatural presence. If this is true, does the ancient power continue to work within our world? Do primordial and living entities, once worshipped as gods, coexist with modern man? The biblical view of the origin of the pagan gods begins with what in my second book I coined The Original Revelation. This means there was a perfect revelation from God to man at the time of creation. The first man Adam was at one with God and perceived divine knowledge from the mind of God. The human was in tune with the mental processes of God, and understood, therefore, what God knew about science, astronomy, cosmogony, geology, eschatology, and so on. After the fall, Adam was detached from the mind of God, but retained an imperfect memory of the divine revelation, including knowledge of Gods plan of redemption from the time of the fall through the end of time and everything in between, including Noahs Flood, the coming of Messiah, and the final World Empire. Two things began to occur in the decades after the Fall: 1) information from the original revelation became distant and distorted as it was dispersed among the nations and passed from generation to generation; and 2) the realm of Satan seized upon this opportunity to receive worship, and to turn people away from Yahweh, by distorting and counterfeiting the original revelation with pagan ideas and gods. This point of view seems reasonable when one considers that the earliest historical and archeological records from civilizations around the world consistently point back to and repeat portions of the original story. In their startling book, The Discovery of Genesis, the Rev. C.H. Kang and Dr. Ethel R. Nelson confirm that prehistoric Chinese ideographic pictures (used in very ancient Chinese writing) report the story of Genesis, including the creation of the Man and Woman, the garden, the temptation and Fall, Noahs flood, and the tower of Babel. In his book, The Real Meaning Of The Zodiac, the late Dr. James Kennedy claimed that the ancient signs of the Zodiac also indicate a singular and original revelation a kind of Gospel in the starsand that the message of the stars, though demonized and converted into astrology after the fall of man, originally recorded the Gospel of God. He wrote:Page 69There exists in the writings of virtually all civilized nations a description of the major stars in the heavenssomething which might be called their Constellations of the Zodiac or the Signs of the Zodiac, of which there are twelve. If you go back in time to Rome, or beyond that to Greece, or before that to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, or Babyloniaregardless of how far back you go, there is a remarkable phenomenon: Nearly all nations had the samehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 78 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMtwelve signs, representing the same twelve things, placed in the same order..The book of Job, which is thought by many to be the oldest book of the Bible, goes back to approximately 2150 B.C., which is 650 years before Moses came upon the scene to write the Pentateuch; over1,100 years before Homer wrote the Odyssey and the Illiad; and 1,500 years before Thales, the first of the philosophers, was born. In chapter 38, God finally breaks in and speaks to Job and to his false comforters. As He is questioning Job, showing him and his companions their ignorance, God says to them: Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? Or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons? (Job 38:31,32). We see here reference to the constellations of Orion and Pleiades, and the star Arcturus. Also in the book of Job there is reference to Cetus, the Sea Monster, and to Draco, the Great Dragon. I would call your attention to Job 38:32a: Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? Mazzaroth is a Hebrew word which means The Constellations of the Zodiac. In what may be the oldest book in all of human history, we find that the constellations of the zodiac were already clearly known and understood.. Having made it clear that the Bible expressly, explicitly, and repeatedly condemns what is now known as astrology, the fact remains that there was a God-given Gospel in the stars which lays beyond and behind that which has now been corrupted. In his book, Kennedy condemned the practice of astrology, while asserting his view that the constellations of the Zodiac were likely given by God to the first man as record-keepers of the original revelation of God. If the primary assumption of this view is correctthat an original revelation was corrupted after the fall of man and subsequently degenerated into mythologies of the pagan godsone should be able to find numerous examples of such corruption from as far back as the beginning of history and within various civilizations around the world. Since the myths behind the gods would thus be borrowed ideas, the corrupted texts would be similar to the original truth, and, in that sense, evidence of a singular and original revelation. If the distortions of the original revelation were in fact energized by evil supernaturalism, the goal of the alterations would be to draw people away from the worship of Yahweh. In certain ancient legendssuch as the Enuma elish, the Adapa Epic, and the Epic of Gilgameshwe discover early traces of the kaleidoscope of the original revelation plagiarized for the purpose of constructing the mythologies of the pagan gods. EARLY TRACES OF CORRUPTION Evidence suggests that the earliest legends of mythology were preceded by a belief in the God (Yahweh or YHWH to the Hebrews) as the creator of all things and the ruler of heaven. Later, Satan was described as the god of this world (2 Cor. 4:4), and the prince of the air (Eph. 2:2). A fascinating struggle between the ruler of the heavens versus the power of the air occured in earlyhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 79 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 70Sumerian mythology after Enki, the god of wisdom and water, created the human race out of clay. It appears that Anu, who was at first the most powerful of the Sumerian gods and the ruler of the heavens, was superseded in power and popularity by Enlil, the god of the air. To the Christian mind this is perceived as nothing less than Satan, the god of the air, continuing his pretence to the throne of God, and his usurpation of Yahwehthe Lord of the heavens. It also indicates a corruption of the original revelation and perhaps an effort on the part of Satan to trick the Sumerians into perceiving him as the supreme god (above the God of heaven) and therefore worthy of adoration. Correspondingly, in the Enuma elish (a Babylonian epic), Marduk, the great god of the city of Babylon, was exalted above the benevolent gods and extolled as the creator of the world. Marduk was symbolized as a dragon (as is Satan in Revelation 12:9) called the Muscrussu, and his legend appears to contain several distortions of the important elements of the biblical account of creation. The Adapa Epic tells of another Babylonian legend also roughly equivalent to the Genesis account of creation. In it, Adapa, like Adam, underwent a test on food consumption, failed the test, and forfeited his opportunity for immortality. As a result of the failure, suffering and death were passed along to humanity. Finally, the Epic of Gilgamesh is a Sumerian poem, which, like the Adapa Epic, is deeply rooted in ancient Assyrian and Babylonian mythology. In 1872 George Smith discovered the Gilgamesh tablets while doing research on the Assyrian library of Ashurbanipal at the British Museum. Because of the strong similarity to the biblical account of Noah and the great flood, Bible scholars have viewed the Gilgamesh epic with interest since its discovery. As the legend goes, Gilgamesh, the king of the city of Uruk, was told about the flood from his immortal friend, Utnapishtim (the Sumerian equivalent of Noah). Utnapishtim described for Gilgamesh how the great god Enlil decided to destroy all of mankind because of its noisy sins. A plague was sent but failed to persuade mankind of better behavior, and, consequently, the gods determined a complete extermination of the human race. Enki, the lord of the waters, was not happy with the other gods for this decision and warned Utnapishtim of the coming deluge, instructing him to tear down his house and build a great boat. Utnapishtim obeyed Enki, built a great vessel, and sealed it with pitch and bitumen. The family of Utnapishtim loaded onto the boat together with various beasts and fowl. When the rains came, the doors were closed and the vessel rose up above the waters. Like Noah, Utnapishtim sent out a dove, and later a swallow, to search for dry land. They both returned. Later, a raven was released and it never came back. After several more days the boat came to rest on the top of a mountain where Utnapishtim built an altar and offered a sacrifice of thanksgiving to the gods. As the gods smelt the sweet offering, all but Enlil repented for sending the flood. In my first book, Spiritual WarfareThe Invisible Invasion, I described another interesting example of the original revelation of God as distorted or plagiarized by Satan in order to draw men away from the worship of Yahweh. Concerning Asclepius, the Greek god of healing, I wrote: At the base of Pergamums hill stood the shrine of Asclepius, equipped with its own library, theater, sleeping chambers used in healing rituals, and long underground tunnels joining various other shrines to which pagans journeyed to receive the healing powers of Apolloshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 80 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMfavorite son. The Christian Church considered these mystical powers as demonic, for the worship of Asclepius focused on the image of a serpent, sometimes called Glycon, anPage 71enormous serpent-figure some historians see as the origin for the modern symbol of healing a serpent winding about a pole. Asclepius carried the lofty title, the hero god of healing. In Numbers 21, Moses designed the brazen serpent on a pole that was used of God as an oracle of healing. 743 years later, in 2 Kings 18:4, we find that Israel had began to worship the brazen serpent with offerings and incense. From here the image was adopted into Greek mythology where it became the symbol of Asclepius, the Greek god of healing. Asclepius was reported to have cured untold numbers from every conceivable disease even raising a man from the dead. This caused Apollo through his Oracle at Delphi to declare, Oh Asclepius!, thou who art born a great joy to all mortals, whom lovely Coronis bare to me, the child of love, at rocky Epidaurus. Such a healer was he reported to be, that Pluto, god of Hades, complained to Zeus that hardly anyone was dying anymore, and so Zeus destroyed Asclepius with a thunderbolt. Afterward, Apollo pleaded with Zeus to restore his son and this intercession so moved Zeus that he not only brought Asclepius back to life, but immortalized him as the god of medicine. First at Thessaly, and finally throughout the Greek and Roman world, Asclepius was worshiped as the saviour god of healing. [2] Besides the entwined serpent symbolism, plagiarism of the Original Revelation is found in Greek mythology where Asclepius has the power to heal the sick and to bring the dead back to life by drawing blood out from the side of the goddess of justice, the same deity who returns old Satans reign during the Novus Ordo Seclorum Asclepius was symbolized by a serpent winding about a pole, and was called the great Physician. The obvious intention of the serpent on a pole in Numbers 21 was to focus mankind on the coming Messiah, the true Great Physician, Jesus Christ, who would hang upon a pole to deliver His followers from sickness and from death by the blood that ran out from His side. THE RISE OF OSIRIS As the centuries passed by, the god and goddess worshipping cities of the Sumerians faded away. The flourishing fields of agriculture that once provided the underpinnings of the great Sumerian economy were depleted of fertility through over-irrigation, and residues of salt build-up appeared to chaff the surface of the land. The city-states of Sumeria; Kish, Ur, Lagash, and Umma, damaged by a millennium of ruthless infighting among the Sumerians, finally succumbed to militant external forces. The barbarian armies of the Elamites (Persians) invaded and destroyed the city of Ur, and Amorites from the west overran the northern province of Sumer and subsequently established the hitherto littlehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 81 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMknown town of Babylon as their capital. By B.C.1840, Hammurabi, the sixth king of Babylon, conquered the remaining cities of Sumeria and forged northern Mesopotamia and Sumeria into a single nation. Yet the ultimate demise of the Sumerian people did not vanquish their ideas. Sumerian art, language, literature, and especially religion, had been forever absorbed into the cultures and social academics of the nations surrounding Mesopotamia, including the Hittite nation, the Babylonians, and the ancient Assyrians. Ultimately a principal benefactor of Sumerias ideas, and a people who would make their own contributions to the ancient mythologies, was an old and flourishing population of agrarians known as the Egyptians.Page 72By the year B.C. 1350, Egyptian dominance had spread from Syria and Palestine into the farthest corners of the Fertile Crescent. From northern Mesopotamia to the Baltic Sea, the pharaohs of Egypt had established themselves as the social and economic leaders of the civilized world, ruling an area more than 2,000 miles in length. The military superiority of the Egyptian army demonstrated the ability to subdue the threat of resistance, maintaining a hegemony that extended from the Nubians to the Hyksos. Even so, in the final analysis, it was the influence of the gods of Egyptwith their magic, myths, and ritualsthat provided the Egyptians a lasting place in history and led succeeding generations into an immense, enlightening description of the ancient mythologies, including a wealth of information regarding the dynamics and supernatural possibilities of paganism. Prehistoric Egyptians believed in the same fundamental idea that most evolutionists subscribe to todaythe premise that the oceans both preceded and in some way contributed to the creation of the living cosmos. From the Fifth Dynasty Pyramid Texts, the Heliopolitan theory of creation stated that Atum (the sun god Ra) independently created himself from a singular expression of self willan act visualized by the Egyptians as a divine egg that appeared upon the primordial waters of the all-filling ocean called Nun, out of which Atum (meaning He who created himself), emerged. According to myth, a second act of creation developed around a divine masturbation when Atum, the great HeShe, orally copulated himself and afterward regurgitated his childrenShu and Tefnutwho assumed the positions of god and goddess of air and moisture. Later, when Shu and Tefnut became lost in the universal ocean of Nun, Atum exhibited his paternal care by sending out his Eye, which had the curious habit of detaching itself from Atum and of thinking independent thoughts, to look for them. The Eye of Atum succeeded in finding the child gods and eventually returned to discover that Atum had grown impatient during the wait and had created a second eye. In order to placate the hostility that soon developed between the two divine eyes, Atum affixed the first eye upon his forehead where it was to oversee and rule the forthcoming world of creation. Thus the Eye of Atum became the jealous, destructive aspect of the sun god Ra. To avoid getting lost again in the all-filling waters of Nun, Shu and Tefnut procreated Geb (the earth), and Nut (the sky), and thus provided the more stable elements of earth, nature, and the seasons. Later,http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 82 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMGeb was conceptualized as cohabiting with Nut and producing four children of his own: Seth, Osiris, Isis, and Nephthys. Of these, Osiris and Isis grew into such powerful cult deities that Osiris, with the help of his sister-wife Isis, nearly overthrew Ra as the most powerful of the godsan action that so enraged his brother Seth that the hateful and jealous sibling killed him. Seths murderous act was followed by the jackal-headed god, Anubis, assisting Isis with the embalming of her slain husbandbrother Osiris, an act through which Anubis secured his position as the god of embalming. Then, while still in mourning, Isis summoned the wisdom of Thoth, which she combined with her own proficient magical skills, and produced a resurrected Osiris, who, in turn, impregnated her with Horus, the god of daylight. Horus promptly avenged his fathers death by killing the evil brother Seth. Another version of the myth claims that Horus was born to Isis only after she impregnated herself with semen that she had taken from the corpse of Osiris (activity that sounds suspiciously like advanced science, artificial insemination or cloning). The god Seth was angry and sought to destroy Horus, and Ufologists may note with interest how Isis seeks help from Thoth, who comes in a flying craftthe Boat of the Celestial Discas recorded in the Metternich Stela:Page 73Then Isis sent forth a cry to heaven and addressed her appeal to the Boat of Millions of Years. And the Celestial Disc stood still, and moved not from the place where it was. And Thoth came down, and he was provided with magical powers, and possessed the great power And he said: O Isis, thou goddess, thou glorious one I have come this day in the Boat of the Celestial Disc from the place where it was yesterday I have come from the skies to save the child for his mother. Yet another story claims that Seth persuaded his brother Osiris to climb into a box, which he quickly shut and threw into the Nile. Osiris drowned and his body floated down the Nile river where it snagged on the limbs of a tamarisk tree. In Byblos, Isis recovered the body from the river bank and took it into her care. In her absence, Seth stole the body again and chopped it into fourteen pieces, which he threw into the Nile. Isis searched the river bank until she recovered every piece, except for the genitals, which had been swallowed by a fish (Plutarch says a crocodile). Isis simply replaced the missing organ with a facsimile and was somehow able to reconstruct Osiris and impregnate herself with the ithyphallic corpse. From this time forward Osiris was considered the chief god of the deceased and the judge of the netherworldthe dark and dreary underworld region of the dead. In human form Osiris was perceived as a mummy and, paradoxically, while he was loved as the guarantor of life after death, he was feared as the demonic presence that decayed the bodies of the dead. Such necromantic worship of Osiris grew to become an important part of several Mediterranean religions, with his most famous cult center being at Abydos in Upper Egypt where an annual festival reenacted his death and resurrection. In Abydos, Osiris was called the god of the setting sunthe mysterious force that ruled the region of the dead just beneath the western horizon. He was venerated in this way primarilyhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 83 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMbecause death, and specifically the fear of ones estate after death, grew to constitute so much of Egyptian concern. In the funerary texts known as the Book of the Dead, the most elaborate magical steps were developed around the Osiris myth to assist the Egyptians with their journey into the afterlife. It was believed that every person had a Kaa spiritual and invisible duplicateand that the Ka accompanied them throughout eternity. Since the Ka provided each person with a resurrected body in the kingdom of the dead, yet could not exist without the maintenance of the earthly body, every effort was made to preserve the human corpse. The body was therefore mummified according to the elaborate magic rituals passed down from Isis, who, according to legend, singularly perfected the rituals of mummification through her work on Osiris. Wooden replicas of the body were also placed in the tomb as a kind of substitute in case the mummy was accidently destroyed, and additional protection for the corpse was provided through the construction of ingenious burial tombs specifically designed to hide and preserve the human body for all of eternity. Finally, curses were placed throughout the tomb as a warning to intruders. At death the Egyptian Ka departed the human body and, accompanied by the hymns and prayers of the living, used the formulas memorized from the funerary texts to outsmart the horrible demons seeking to impede the Kas progress into the kingdom (or hall) of Osiris. Arriving at the judgment hall, the heart of the Ka was weighed in the balance by Osiris and his 42 demons. If they found the deceased lacking in virtue, he was condemned to an eternity of hunger and thirst. If the Ka wasPage 74determined to have belonged to an outright sinner, it was cut to pieces and fed to Ammitthe miserable little goddess and eater of souls. But if the deceased was judged to have lived a virtuous life, the Ka was granted admittance to the heavenly fields of Yaru, where foods were abundant and pleasures unending. The only toil in this heaven was to serve in the grain fields of Osiris, and even this could be obviated by placing substitutionary statues, called shawabty, into the tomb. There is some evidence that the 42 demons or judges of Osiris were in some way related to the prehistoric Watchersthe mysterious angelic beings who first appeared in the early cultures of the Middle East (discussed later). The early Egyptian scribes viewed the leaders from among these fallen Watchers as the underworld demons of Osiris whose terrible knives exacted judgment upon the Ka of the wicked. The Egyptians were desperately afraid of the netherworld Watchers, and a significant amount of time was spent determining how to placate the judgment of Osiris and his 42 demons. The worship of Isisthe sister-wife of Osiristhus became integral. As pointed out earlier, Isis was one of the most important goddesses of ancient mythology and was venerated by the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, as the goddess of a thousand names and as the undisputed queen of magical skills. An example of her form of magic is found in the Theban Recension of the Book of the Dead and depicts Isis providing a spell for controlling the 42 demons of Osiris. The formula consisted of an amulet made of carnelian that had been soaked in the water of ankhami flowers. It was supposed to be placedhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 84 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMaround the neck of the dead person in combination with the spoken words of magic. If performed properly, it would empower the Ka of the individual to enter into the region of the dead under the protection of Isis, where the Ka would thereafter move about wheresoever it wanted without fear of the 42 demons of Osiris. The only Egyptian who did not benefit from this particular spell was the Pharaoh, and for a very good reason. Although Pharaoh was considered to be the son of the sun god (Ra) and the incarnation of the falcon god Horus during his lifetime, at death he became the Osiris the divine judge of the netherworld. On earth, Pharaohs son and predecessor would take his place as the newly anointed manifestation of Horus, and thus each new generation of the pharaohs provided the gods with a divine spokesman for the present world and for the afterlife. The observant reader may wonder, was there something more to the Pharaohs deification than meets the eye? The cult center of Amun-Ra at Thebes may hold the answer, as it was the site of the largest religious structure ever builtthe temple of Amun-Ra at Karnakand the location of many extraordinary magical rituals. The great Temple with its 100 miles of walls and gardens (the primary object of fascination and worship by the nemesis of Mosesthe Pharaoh of the Exodus, Ramses II) was the place where each pharaoh reconciled his divinity in the company of Amun-Ra during the festival of Opet. The festival was held at the Temple of Luxor and included a procession of gods carried on barges up the Nile river from Karnak to the Temple. The royal family accompanied the gods on boats while the Egyptian laity walked along the shore, calling aloud and making requests of the gods. Once at Luxor, the Pharaoh and his entourage entered the holy of holies where the king joined his ka (the mysterious science or ritual is unknown) and transmogrified into a living deity, the son of Amun-Ra. Outside, large groups of dancers and musicians waited anxiously. When the king emerged transformed, the crowd erupted in gaiety. FromPage 75that day forward the Pharaoh was considered to bejust as the god ciphered in the Great Seal of the United States will bethe son and spiritual incarnation of the Supreme Deity. The All-Seeing Eye of Horus/Apollo/Osiris above the unfinished pyramid on the Great Seal represents this spirit and prophesies his coming during the Novus Ordo Seclorum. FROM ANCIENT EGYPT TO GREECE: TIS THINE OWN APOLLO REIGNS According to the Greeks, the greatest outcome of the love affair between Zeus and Leto was the birth of the most beloved of the oracle godsApollo. More than any other god in ancient history, Apollo represented the passion for prophetic inquiry among the nations. Though mostly associated with classical Greece, scholars agree that Apollo existed before the Olympian pantheon and some evenhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 85 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMclaim that this entity was first known as Apollo by the Hyperboreansan ancient and legendary people to the north. Herodotus came to this conclusion and recorded how the Hyperboreans continued in worship of Apollo even after his induction into the Greek pantheon, making an annual pilgrimage to the land of Delos where they participtated in the famous Greek festivals of Apollo. Lyciaa small country in southwest Turkeyalso had an early connection with Apollo, where he was known as Lykeios, which some have joined to the Greek Lykos or wolf, thus making one of his ancient titles, the wolf slayer. Apollo, with his twin sister Artemis, was said by the Greeks to have been born in the land of Delos the children of Zeus (Jupiter) and of the Titaness Leto. While an important oracle existed there and played a role in the festivals of the god, it was the famous oracle at Delphi that became the celebrated mouthpiece of the Olympian. Located on the mainland of Greece, the omphalos of Delphi (the stone which the Greeks believed marked the center of the earth) can still be found among the ruins of Apollos Delphic temple. So important was Apollos oracle at Delphi that wherever Hellenism existed, its citizens and kings, including some from as far away as Spain, ordered their lives, colonies, and wars, by its sacred communications. It was here that the Olympian gods spoke to mortal men through the use of a priesthood, which interpreted the trance-induced utterances of the Pythoness or Pythia. She was a middle-aged woman who sat on a copper-and-gold tripod, or, much earlier, on the rock of the sibyl (medium), and crouched over a fire while inhaling the smoke of burning laurel leaves, barley, marijuana, and oil, until a sufficient intoxication for her prophecies had been produced. While the use of the laurel leaves may have referred to the nymph Daphne (Greek for laurel), who escaped from Apollos sexual intentions by transforming herself into a laurel tree, the leaves also served the practical purpose of supplying the necessary amounts of hydrocyanic acid and complex alkaloids which, when combined with hemp, created powerful hallucinogenic visions. An alternative version of the Oracle myth claims that the Pythia sat over a fissure breathing in magic vapors that rose up from a deep crevice within the earth. The vapors became magic as they were mingled with the smells of the rotting carcass of the dragon Python, which had been slain and thrown down into the crevice by Apollo as a youth. In either case, it was under the influence of such forces that the Pythia prophesied in an unfamiliar voice thought to be that of Apollo himself. During the pythian trance the mediums personality often changed, becoming melancholic, defiant, or even animal-like, exhibiting a psychosis that may have been the source of the werewolf myth, or lycanthropy, as the Pythia reacted to an encounter with Apollo/Lykeiosthe wolf god. Delphic women of python prophesied in this way for nearly a thousand years and were considered to be a vital part of the pagan order and localPage 76economy of every Hellenistic community. This adds to the mystery of adoption of the Pythians and Sibyls by certain quarters of Christianity as vessels of truth. These women, whose lives were dedicated to channeling from frenzied lips the messages of gods and goddesses, turn up especially in Catholic art, from altars to illustrated books and even upon the ceiling of the Sistinehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 86 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMChapel, where five Sibyls join the Old Testament prophets in places of sacred honor. The Cumaean Sibyl (also known as Amalthaea), whose prophecy about the return of the god Apollo is encoded in the Great Seal of the United States, was the oldest of the Sibyls and the seer of the Underworld who in the Aeneid gave Aeneas a tour of the infernal region. Whether by trickery or occult power, the prophecies of the Sibyls were sometimes amazingly accurate. The Greek historian, Herodotus (considered the father of history), recorded an interesting example of this. Croesus, the king of Lydia, had expressed doubt regarding the accuracy of Apollos Oracle at Delphi. To test the oracle, Croesus sent messengers to inquire of the Pythian prophetess as to what he, the king, was doing on a certain day. The priestess surprised the kings messengers by visualizing the question, and by formulating the answer, before they arrived. A portion of the historians account says: ..the moment that the Lydians (the messengers of Croesus) entered the sanctuary, and before they put their questions, the Pythoness thus answered them in hexameter verse: Lo! on my sense there striketh the smell of a shell-covered tortoise, Boiling now on a fire, with the flesh of a lamb, in a cauldron. Brass is the vessel below, and brass the cover above it. These words the Lydians wrote down at the mouth of the Pythoness as she prophesied, and then set off on their return to Sardis..[when] Croesus undid the rolls..[he] instantly made an act of adoration.. declaring that the Delphic was the only really oracular shrine.. For on the departure of his messengers he had set himself to think what was most impossible for any one to conceive of his doing, and then, waiting till the day agreed on came, he acted as he had determined. He took a tortoise and a lamb, and cutting them in pieces with his own hands, boiled them together in a brazen cauldron, covered over with a lid which was also of brass (Herodotus, book 1: 47). Another interesting example of spiritual insight by an Apollonian Sibyl is found in the New Testament Book of Acts. Here the demonic resource that energized the Sibyls is revealed. And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination [of python, a seeress of Delphi] met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour. And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city. (Acts 16:1620)http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 87 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 77The story in Acts is interesting because it illustrates the level of culture and economy that had been built around the oracle worship of Apollo. It cost the average Athenian more than two days wages for an oracular inquiry, and the average cost to a lawmaker or military official seeking important State information was charged at ten times that rate. This is why, in some ways, the action of the woman in the book of Acts is difficult to understand. She undoubtedly grasped the damage Pauls preaching could do to her industry. Furthermore, the Pythia of Delphi had a historically unfriendly relationship with the Jews and was considered a pawn of demonic power. Quoting again from my first book Spiritual WarfareThe Invisible Invasion, we read: Delphi with its surrounding area, in which the famous oracle ordained and approved the worship of Asclepius, was earlier known by the name Pytho, a chief city of Phocis. In Greek mythology, Pythonthe namesake of the city of Pythowas the great serpent who dwelt in the mountains of Parnassus In Acts 16:16, the demonic woman who troubled Paul was possessed with a spirit of divination. In Greek this means a spirit of python (a seeress of Delphi, a pythoness)..[and] reflects..the accepted Jewish belief..that the worship of Asclepius [Apollos son] and other such idolatries were, as Paul would later articulate in 1 Corinthians 10:20, the worship of demons. It could be said that the Pythia of Acts 16 simply prophesied the inevitable. That is, the spirit that possessed her knew the time of Apollos reign was over for the moment, and that the spread of Christianity would lead to the demise of the Delphic oracle. This is possible as demons are sometimes aware of changing dispensations (compare the pleas of the demons in Matthew 8:29, ..What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?). The last recorded utterance of the oracle at Delphi seems to indicate the spirit of the Olympians understood this. From Man, Myth & Magic, we read: Apollo..delivered his last oracle in the year 362 AD, to the physician of the Emperor Julian, the Byzantine ruler who tried to restore paganism after Christianity had become the official religion of the Byzantine Empire. Tell the King, said the oracle, that the curiously built temple has fallen to the ground, that bright Apollo no longer has a roof over his head, or prophetic laurel, or babbling spring. Yes, even the murmuring water has dried up. As the oracle at Delphi slowly diminished, the entity Apollo secured his final and most durable ancient characterization through the influence of his favorite sonAsclepius. Beginning at Thessaly and spreading throughout the whole of Asia Minor, the cult of Asclepiusthe Greek god of healing and anti-christ archetypebecame the chief competitor of early Christianity. Asclepius was even believed by many pagan converts of Christianity to be a living presence who possessed the power of healing. Major shrines were erected to Asclepius at Epidaurus and at Pergamum, and for a long time he enjoyed a strong cult following in Rome where he was known as Aesculapius. Usually depicted in Greek and Roman art carrying a snake wound around a pole, Asclepius was often accompanied by Telesphoros, the Greek god of convalescence. He was credited with healing a variety of incurable diseases, including raising a man from the dead, a miracle which later caused Hades to complain to Zeus who responded by killing Asclepius with a thunderbolt. When Apollo argued that his son had done nothing worthy of death, Zeus repented and restored Asclepius to life; immortalizing him as thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 88 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMgod of medicine.Page 78DIONYSUS: THE PSYCHOTIC ASPECT OF THE DEMON APOLLO/OSIRIS Around the first century BC, historians began using the term Osiris-Dionysus to commonly refer to dying-and-resurrecting deities, often part-human and born of virgins that were worshipped in the years before the emergence of Jesus Christ. In the 5th century BC, Herodotus spoke in particular of the syncretic relationship between Osiris and Dionysus, the thirteenth god of the Greeks. By adding Dionysus to what we have already written about Osiris and Apollo, one can imagine a kind of demonic trinitya single spirit represented in three manifestations, each of which illustrate a different side of the entitys makeup. While as Osiris, this spirit is the god of death and the underworld, and as Apollo he is an oracular sun deity and destroyer demon, as Dionysus he is superficially depicted as the inventor of wine, abandon, and revelry, a description that seems inadequate in that it refers only to the basic elements of intoxication and enthusiasm, which was used of the Bacchae (the female participants of the Dionystic mysteries; also known as Maenads and Bacchantes) in their rituals to experience Dionysus, the intoxicating god of unbridled human desire. Ancient followers of Dionysus believed he was the presence that is otherwise defined as the craving within man that longs to let itself go and to give itself over to baser earthly desires. What a Christian might resist as the lustful wants of the carnal man, the followers of Dionysus embraced as the incarnate power that would, in the next life, liberate the souls of mankind from the constraints of this present world and from the customs which sought to define respectability through a persons obedience to moral law. Until that day arrive, the worshippers of Dionysus attempted to bring themselves into union with the god through a ritual casting off of the bonds of sexual denial and primal constraint by seeking to attain a higher state of ecstasy. The uninhibited rituals of ecstasy (Greek for outside the body) was believed to bring the followers of Dionysus into a supernatural condition that enabled them to escape the temporary limitations of the body and mind and to achieve a state of enthousiasmos, or, outside the body and inside the god. In this sense Dionysus represented a dichotomy within the Greek religion, as the primary maxim of the Greek culture was one of moderation, or, nothing too extreme. But Dionysus embodied the absolute extreme in that he sought to inflame the forbidden passions of human desire. Interestingly, and most students of psychology will understand, this gave Dionysus a stronger allure among the Greeks who otherwise tried in so many ways to suppress and control the wild and secret lusts of the human heart. Dionysus resisted every such effort, and, according to myth, visited a terrible madness upon those who tried to deny him free expression. This Dionystic idea of mental disease resulting from the suppression of secret inner desires, especially aberrant sexual desires, was later reflected in the atheistic teachings of Sigmund Freud. Freudianism might therefore be called the grandchild of the cult of Dionysus. Conversely, the person who gave himself over to the will of Dionysus was rewarded with unlimited psychological andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 89 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMphysical delights. These mythical systems of mental punishments and physical rewards based on resistance and/or submission to Dionysus, were both symbolically and literally illustrated in the cult rituals of the Bacchae, as the Bacchae women (married and unmarried Greek women had the right to participate in the mysteries of Dionysus) migrated in frenzied hillside groups, dressed transvestite in fawn skins and accompanied by screaming, music, dancing, and licentious behavior. When, for instance, a baby animal was too young and lacking in instinct to sense the danger and run away from the revelers, it was picked up and suckled by nursing mothers who participated in the hillside rituals. On the other hand, when older animals sought to escape the marauding Bacchae, they were considered resistant to the will of Dionysus and were torn apart and eaten alive as a part of thePage 79fevered ritual. Human participants were sometimes subjected to the same orgiastic cruelty, as the rule of the cult was anything goes, including beastiality, etc. Later versions of the ritual (Bacchanalia) expanded to include pedophilia and male revelers, and perversions of sexual behavior were often worse between men than they were between men and women. Any creature that dared to resist such perversion of Dionysus was subjected to sparagmos (torn apart) and omophagia (consumed raw). In B.C. 410, Euripides wrote of the bloody rituals of the Bacchae in his famous play, The Bacchantes: the Bacchantes..with hands that bore no weapon of steel, attacked our cattle as they browsed. Then wouldst thou have seen Agave mastering some sleek lowing calf, while others rent the heifers limb from limb. Before thy eyes there would have been hurling of ribs and hoofs this way and that, and strips of flesh, all blood be-dabbled, dripped as they hung from the pine branches. Wild bulls, that glared but now with rage along their horns, found themselves tripped up, dragged down to earth by countless maidens hands. Euripedes went on to describe how Pentheus, the King of Thebes, was torn apart and eaten alive by his own mother as, according to the play, she fell under the spell of Dionysus. Tearing apart and eating alive of a sacrificial victim may refer to the earliest history of the cult of Dionysus. An ancient and violent cult ritual existing since the dawn of paganism stipulated that, by eating alive, or by drinking the blood, of an enemy or an animal, a person might somehow capture the essence or soul-strength of the victim. The earliest Norwegian huntsmen believed in this idea, and drank the blood of bears in an effort to capture their physical strength. East African Masai warriors also practiced omophagia and sought to gain the strength of the wild by drinking the blood of lions. Human victims were treated in this way by Arabs before Mohammed, and head-hunters of the East Indies practiced omophagia in an effort to capture the essence of their enemies. Today, omophagia is practiced by certain Voodoo sects as well as by cult Satanists, possibly illustrating an ongoing effort on the part of Satan to distort the Original Revelation of God, as eating human flesh and drinking human blood to become one with the devoured is a demonization of the Eucharist or Holy Communion. While the goal of the Satanist is to profane the Holy, sparagmos andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 90 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMomophagia, as practiced by the followers of Dionysus, was neither an attempt at sacrilege or of transubstantiation (as in the Catholic Eucharist), nor of consubstantiation (as in the Lutheran communion), nor yet of a symbolic ordinance (as in evangelical circles), all of which have as a common goal elevating the worshipper into sacramental communion with God. The goal of the Bacchae was the oppositethe frenzied dance; the thunderous song; the licentious behavior; the tearing apart and eating alive; all were efforts on the part of the Bacchae to capture the essence of the god (Dionysus) and to bring him down into incarnated rage within man. The idea was not one of Holy Communion, but of possession by the spirit of Dionysus. When one recalls the horrific rituals of the followers of Dionysus, its easy to believe demonic possession actually occurred. A Christian should find this idea plausible, and, it would seem, so did the Hebrews. The Hebrew people considered Hades (the Greek god of the underworld) to be equal with Hell and/or the Devil, and many ancient writers likewise saw no difference between Hades (in this sense the Devil) and Dionysus. Euripedes echoed this sentiment in the Hecuba, and referred to the followers of Dionysus as the Bacchants of Hades. In Syracuse, Dionysus was known as Dionysus MorychosPage 80(the dark one) a fiendish creature; roughly equivalent to the biblical Satan, who wore goatskins and dwelt in the regions of the underworld. In the scholarly book, Dionysus Myth And Cult, Walter F. Otto connected Dionysus with the prince of the underworld. He wrote: The similarity and relationship which Dionysus has with the prince of the underworld (and this is revealed by a large number of comparisons) is not only confirmed by an authority of the first rank, but he says the two deities are actually the same. Heraclitus says, ..Hades and Dionysus, for whom they go mad and rage, are one and the same. Some Hebrews considered the magic (witchcraft) of the Bacchae to be the best evidence of Dionysus Satanic connection, and, while most of the details are no longer available because Dionysus was a mystery god and his rituals were revealed to the initiated only, the Hebrew prophet Ezekiel made an important statement about the magic bands (kesatot) of the Bacchae, which, as in the omophagia, were used to capture (magically imprison) the souls of men. We read, Wherefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold I am against your pillows [kesatot, magic bands] wherewith ye there hunt the souls to make them fly, and I will tear them from your arms and will let the souls go, even the souls that ye hunt to make them fly (Ez. 13:20). The kesatot was a magic arm band used in connection with a container called the kiste. Wherever the kiste is inscribed on sarcophagi and on Bacchic scenes, it is depicted as a sacred vessel (a soul prison?) with a snake peering through an open lid. How the magic worked and in what way a soul was imprisoned is still a mystery. Pan, the half-man/half-goat god (later relegated to devildom) is sometimes pictured kicking the lid open and letting the snake (soul?) out. Such loose snakes were then depicted as being enslaved around the limbs, and bound in the hair, of the Bacchae women. Whatever this imagery of Pan, the serpents, the imprisoned souls, and the magic Kesatot and Kiste actually represented, a noteworthy verification of the magical propertieshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 91 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMrepresented by them is discussed in the scholarly book Scripture and Other Artifacts by Phillip King and Michael David: In the closing verses of Ezekiel 13 the prophet turns his attention to magic practices whose details remain obscure. Two key terms are kesatot and mispabot. The kesatot are sewn on the arms, while the mispabot are made on the head of every height (?), which has been understood to mean on the heads of persons of every height [including those of great height; giants, offspring of the Watchers] In modern times archaeological discoveries and texts from Babylonia in particular have shed further light on what might be involved: G. A. Cooke cited Hellenistic figurines from Tell Sandahannah (Mareshah) in Palestine with wire twisted around their arms and ankles and a magical text from Babylonia that speaks of white and black wool being bound to a person or to someones bed. J. Herrmann [notes] that both words can be related to Akkadian verbs, kasu and sapabu, which mean respectively to bind and to loose. Herrmann also drew attention to texts in which these verbs were used in a specifically magical sense. This indicates that, whatever the objects were, their function was to act as binders and loosers in a magical sense, in other words as means of attack and defense in sorcery. The text in Ezekiel is believed to specifically refer to Dionysian or Bacchanalian magic, which is important in the context of this blog series when combined with a related two-part binding andPage 81loosing question from God in Job 38:31: Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? The first part of Gods challenge to Job here involves the star cluster Pleides, which in mythology represented the Seven Sisters or teachers of the infant Dionysus, the very priestesses of whom used the kesatot and kiste to magically bind those souls that Ezekiel said God would loose. The second part of Gods proposition to Job is equally meaningful, Can you loose the bands of Orion? Studies in recent years have made intriguing findings that suggest the Giza Plateauwhich according to Zahi Hawass (current Secretary General of Egypts Supreme Council of Antiquities), was known to ancient Egyptians as the House of Osiris, Lord of the Underground Tunnelswas designed to reflect the constellation Orion. The three pyramids of Giza do appear to be laid out in a pattern reflecting the three stars of Orion, which is none other than the heavenly representation of Osiris. In Greek mythology, the god Orion (Osiris) fell in love with Apollos sister, Diana (Artemis). Apollo did not like this arrangement and tricked Diana into shooting an arrow into Orions head. When she saw what she had done, Diana placed the dead Osiris among the stars and transformed him into the constellation Orion. Thereafter, Orion was thought to be the Soulhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 92 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMof Osiris. Earlier history connects the constellation Orion to the Sumerian legend of Gilgamesh, identified in the Bible as Nimrodthe giant mighty hunter before the Lorda fantastic personality who in later mythology was also called Osiris and Apollo. If Job 38:31 is therefore interpreted according to these ancient astrological and mythological renderings, it would have God asking Job if he could bind the magic bands (kesatot?) of Osiris-Dionysus or loose the bindings (mispabot?) of the Mighty Hunter, the giant Orion/Gilgamesh/Nimrod/Osiris/Apollo. What is potentially more explosive is the deep possible implication from this text that not only can God do thisthat is, loose the forces bound at Giza and the constellation Orionbut that, when the correct time comes, He will. When the star systems Pleides and Orion are compared to Henry Wallaces letter to Nicholas Roerich in which he said, Dear Guru, I have been thinking of you holding the casketthe sacred most precious casket. And I have thought of the New Country going forward to meet the seven stars under the sign of the three stars, the mystery may unfold that Wallace was referring to the Pleides and Orion specifically and to the deity, and earthly location, they represent. This is an excellent possibility, as these star systemsthe seven stars of the Pleides and the three stars of Orionrelate to one another in mythology as well as in the Bible. Further, both star systems represent the god encoded in the Great Seal, the central fascination of Wallace and Roosevelt. The Pleides points to ApolloDionysus while the Orion system points to the Soul of Osiris in heaven and, on earth, to his speculative tomb location in Giza. If Wallace was referring to these star systems by his cryptic phrase going forward to meet the seven stars under the sign of the three stars, Roerich and Wallace may have believed the New Country (America as the New Atlantis) was destined to meet Apollo-Dionysus under the sign of the three stars (on the Giza Plateau), where the most precious casket or coffin of Osiris-Apollo-Dionysus held the material remains of the god.Page 82Belief that these godsor more accurately the single entity represented by these many nameswould return to rule the earth one day, is not limited to Masonic mystics or the divine manifestation from the Apostle Paul to the Thessalonians (2 Thessalonians 2:3). The return of these gods to an active and outward position as rulers of mankind is predicted in the Asclepius, notes Peter Goodgame, which is predicted to come after the long period of spiritual decline in Egypt. The prophecy Goodgame refers to from the ancient Asclepius says: Those gods who rule the earth will be restored, and they will be installed in a city at the furthest threshold of Egypt, which will be founded towards the setting sun and to which all human kind will hasten by land and by sea.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 93 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMGoodgame notes the physical whereabouts of the city in this prophecy is the Giza Plateau, as located by Garth Fowden in his book, The Egyptian Hermes. in answer to Asclepius enquiry where these gods are at the moment, Trismegistus replies (at Ascl. 27): In a very great city, in the mountains of Libya (in monte Libyco), by which is meant the edge of the desert plateau to the west of the Nile valley. A subsequent reference (Ascl. 37) to the temple and tomb of Asclepius (Imhotep) in monte Libyae establishes that the allusion at Ascl. 27 is to the ancient and holy Memphite necropolis, which lay on the desert jabal to the west of Memphis itself. The mountains of Libya, Goodgame concludes, is simply a reference to the plateau that rises above the desert on the west bank of the Nile, west of the ancient city of Memphis. In other words, according to this Hermetic prediction, when the Kosmokrators are restored they will be installed in a city on or near the Giza Plateau. Will the ancient super-man Apollo-Osiris rise from a hidden tomb at the Giza Plateau, as Goodgame believes may be the case? If so, the Asclepius could have been more than a pagan prophecy. It may have been a record pointing to where the body of the god was stored in times past. Do the occult masters already know this, and is this why an unfinished pyramid adorns the Great Seal of the United States, over which the portentous eye of Apollo-Osiris glares from the ancient past? Has DNA been recovered from Giza that is needed for the return of this god? Will a forbidden science that once allowed incarnation and deity status to powerful fallen beings be restored in this modern age? Prophecy may suggest exactly this, and for the immediate future, I believe.Chapter 8THE LUCIFERIAN SCIENCE OF DEITY RESURRECTIONOsiris will rise in splendor from the dead and rule the world through those sages andPage 83philosophers in whom wisdom has become incarnate.Manly P.

Statement of Osiris from the Egyptian Book of the Dead To understand how the pagan god of death and destruction so cleverly hidden in the Great Seal of the United States could fulfill the Sibyls conjure and return with the life of gods with Heroes and gods commingling, we gaze into the distant past, when the forbidden science was initially used, and to the powerful beings that first developed it and that may be planning to use it again.As far back as the beginning of time and within every major culture of the ancient world, the astonishingly consistent story is told of gods that descended from heaven and materialized in bodies of flesh. From Rome, to Greece, and before that to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, Babylonia and Sumer, the earliest records of civilization tell of the era when powerful beings known to the Hebrews as Watchers and in the Book of Genesis as the Benei Ha-Elohim (Sons of God), mingled themselves with humans, giving birth to part-celestial, part-terrestrial hybrids known as Nephilim. The Bible says this happened when men began to increase on earth and daughters were born to them. When the Sons of God saw the womens beauty, they took wives from among them to sire their unusual offspring. In Genesis 6:4 we read the following account: There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. When this scripture is compared with other ancient texts including Enoch, Jubilees, Baruch, Genesis Apocryphon, Philo, Josephus, Jasher and so on, it unfolds to some that the giants of the Old Testament, such as Goliath, were the part-human part-animal part-angelic offspring of a supernatural interruption into the divine order and natural evolution of the species. The Apocryphal Book of Enoch gives a name to the angels involved in this cosmic conspiracy, calling them Watchers. We read: And I Enoch was blessing the Lord of majesty and the King of the ages, and lo! the Watchers called meEnoch the scribeand said to me: Enoch, thou scribe of righteousness, go, declare to the Watchers of the heaven who have left the high heaven, the holy eternal place, and have defiled themselves with women, and have done as the children of earth do, and have taken unto themselves wives: Ye have wrought great destruction on the earth: And ye shall have no peace nor forgiveness of sin: and inasmuch as they delight themselves in their children [the Nephilim], The murder of their beloved ones shall they see, and over the destruction of their children shall they lament, and shall make supplication unto eternity, but mercy and peace shall ye not attain (1 Enoch 10:3-8).http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 95 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 84According to Enoch, two hundred of these powerful angels departed high heaven and used women (among other things) to extend their progeny into mankinds plane of existence. The Interlinear Hebrew Bible has an interesting interpretation of Genesis 6:2 in this regard. Where the King James Bible says, the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they [were] fair, the IHN interprets this as, The benei Elohim saw the daughters of Adam, that they were fit extensions. The term fit extensions seems applicable when the whole of the ancient record is understood to mean that the Watchers wanted to leave their proper sphere of existence in order to enter earths threedimensional reality. They viewed womenor at least their genetic materialas part of the formula for accomplishing this task. Departing the proper habitation that God had assigned them was grievous to the Lord and led to divine penalization. Jude described it this way: The angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day (Jude 6). Besides Apocryphal, Pseudepigraphic, and Jewish traditions related to the legend of the Watchers and the Mighty Men born of their union with humans, mythologized accounts tell the stories of gods using humans to produce heroes or demigods (half-gods). When the ancient Greek version of the Hebrew Old Testament (the LXX or Septuagint) was made, the word Nephilimreferring to the part-human offspring of the Watcherswas translated gegenes, a word implying earth born. This same terminology was used to describe the Greek Titans and other legendary heroes of partly celestial and partly terrestrial origin, such as Hercules, born of Zeus and the mortal Alcmena, Achilles, the Trojan hero son of Thetis and Peleus, and Gilgamesh, the two-thirds god and one-third human child of Lugalbanda and Ninsun. These demigods were likewise accompanied in texts and idol representation by half-animal and half-human creatures like Centaurs (the parthuman part-horse offspring of Apollos son, Centaurus), Chimeras, Furies, Satyrs, Gorgons, Nymphs, Minotaurs and other genetic aberrations. Historian Andrew Tomas believes these mythological records are thought-fossils depicting the story of vanished cultures in symbols and allegories, or, as Stephen Quayle in his book Genesis 6 Giants explains: The collective memories in the form of myths, fables and fairy tales from various cultures and ages of mankind are overwhelming evidence that the Nephilim existed. All of this indicates that the Watchers not only modified human DNA during the construction of Nephilim, but animals as well, a point the Book of Enoch supports, saying in the 7th chapter that the fallen angels sinned against animals as well as humans. Other books such as Jubilees add that this interspecies mingling eventually resulted in mutations among normal humans and animals whose flesh (genetic makeup) was corrupted by the activity, presumably through crossbreeding (see 5:1-5; 7:21-25). Even the Old Testament contains reference to the genetic mutations that developed among humans following this time frame, including men of unusual size, physical strength, six fingers, six toes, animal appetite for blood and even lion-like features (2 Samhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 96 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AM21:20; 23:20). J. R. Church makes an interesting point that since this activity was satanic in nature, it refers to the seed of the serpent that was at enmity with Christ. The concept of a reptilian race continues throughout the Bible as a metaphoric symbol of the devil, he wrote in his Prophecy in thePage 85News Magazine, February 2009. Later Scriptures add the term dragon, with the implication that these other-worldly creatures were designed with the DNA code of a reptilian race. J.R. goes on to state how some of these satanic creatures were depicted as bat-like gargoyles, or winged dragons in ancient art and that we should not be surprised that a humanoid-type reptilian race could cohabit with human women and produce a race of giants. But of all the ancient records, the most telling extra-biblical script is from the book of Jasher, a mostly forgotten text referred to in the Bible in Joshua 10:13 and Second Samuel 1:18. Jasher records the familiar story of the fall of the Watchers then adds an exceptional detail that none of the other texts are as unequivocal about, something that can only be understood in modern language to mean advanced biotechnology, genetic engineering or transgenic modification of species. After the Watchers had instructed humans in the secrets of heaven, note what Jasher says occurred: [Then] the sons of men [began teaching] the mixture of animals of one species with the other, in order therewith to provoke the Lord (Jasher 4:18). The phrase the mixture of animals of one species with the other does not mean Watchers had taught men hybridization, as this would not have provoked the Lord. God made like-animals of different breeds capable of reproducing. For example horses can propagate with other mammals of the Equidae classification (the taxonomic horse family) including donkeys and zebras. It would not have provoked the Lord for this type animal breeding to have taken place, as God himself made the animals able to do this. If, on the other hand, the Watchers were crossing species boundaries by mixing incompatible animals of one species with the other such as a horse with a human (a Centaur), this would have been a different matter and may cast light on the numerous ancient stories of mythical beings of variantspecies manufacturing that fits perfectly within the records of what the Watchers were accomplishing. Understandably, this kind of chimera-making would have provoked the Lord and raises the serious question of why the Watchers would have risked eternal damnation by tinkering with Gods creation in this way. Yahweh placed boundaries between the species and strictly ordered that each kind reproduce only after its own kind. Was the motive of the Watchers to break these rules simply the desire to rebel, to assault Gods creative genius through biologically altering what He had made? Or was something of deeper significance behind the activity? Some believe the corruption of antediluvian DNA by Watchers was an effort to cut off the birth line of the Messiah. This theory posits that Satan understood the protoevangeliumthe promise in Genesis :15 that a savior would be born, the seed of the woman, and that He would destroy the fallen angelshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 97 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMpower. Satans followers therefore intermingled with the human race in a conspiracy to stop the birth of Christ according to this line of thought. If human DNA could be universally corrupted or demonized they reasoned, no savior would be born and mankind would be lost forever. Those who support this theory believe this is why God Ordered a pure human bloodline to be maintained and for His followers not to intermarry with the other nations. When men breached this command and the mutated DNA began rapidly spreading among humans and animals, God instructed Noah to build an ark and to prepare for a flood that would destroy every living thing. That God had to send such a universal fiat like the flood illustrates how widespread the altered DNA eventually became. In fact,Page 86the Bible says in Genesis 6:9 that only Noah, and therefore by extension his children, were found perfect in their generation. The Hebrew word for perfect in this case is Tamiym and means without blemish or healthy, the same word used in Leviticus to describe an unblemished sacrificial lamb. The meaning was not that Noah was morally perfect, but that his physical makeuphis DNA had not been contaminated with Nephilim descent, as apparently the rest of the world had become. In order to preserve mankind as He had made them, God destroyed all but Noahs family in the flood. The ancient records including those of the Bible appear to agree with this theology, consistently describing the cause of the Flood as happening in response to all flesh having become corrupted, both man and beast. AN ALTERNATIVE REASON FOR WHY THE WATCHERS BLENDED DNA While I believe the theory of DNA corruption as an intended method for halting the coming of Christ has merit, an alternative or additional reason for why the Watchers may have blended living organisms exists. This theory is original with me insofar as I know and grew from my need to incorporate the voluminous historical texts, which described this peculiar history, into a consistent account. To harmonize the ancient records, I came to believe that the overriding motive for whatever the Watchers were doing with the DNA of various species had to be understood within the context of their foremost goal, which was to leave their plane of existence and to enter ours (Jude 6; 2 Pet 2:4). My challenge then became to answer the question of how blending various species would satisfy this goal or provide the Watchers with a method of departure from high heaven and incarnation into mans habitation. While I will not take time here to explain every detail (a 5-hour CD set called As It Was In The Days Of Noah: The Return Of The Nephilim that covers this and related material is available from SurvivorMall.com), I eventually hypothesized that the Watchers had to blend species in the way they did in order to create a soul-less or spirit-less body into which they could extend themselves. The rationale is that every creature as it existed originally had its beginning in God, who ordered each creature to reproduce after its own kind. The phrase, after its own kind verifies what kind of spirit can enter into an intelligent being at conception. When the sperm of a dog meets ovum of a dog andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 98 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMlife of a dog is formed, at the first spark of life the spirit or personality of a dog enters that embryo and it grows to become a dog in spirit and form. The spirit of a man does not enter it, in the same way that a man is not born with the spirit of a horse or cow. This creature/spirit integrity is part of the Divine Order and would have kept the Watchers, who wanted to incarnate within the human realm (not just possess creatures), from displacing the spirits of humans or animals and replacing them with their own. How did they overcome this problem? Like scientists are doing today, it appears based on the ancient records that they blended existing DNA of several living creatures and made something that neither the spirit of man or beast would enter at conception, for it was neither man nor beast. As the quarterly online travel guide Mysterious World in their 2003 feature Giants in the Earth noted, The Nephilim were genetically manufactured beings created from the genetic material of various pre-existing animal species the fallen angels did not personally interbreed with the daughters of men, but used their godlike intellect to delve into the secrets of YHWHs Creation and manipulate it to their own purposes. And the key to creating or recreating man, as we have (re)discovered in the twentieth century, is the human genome DNA. This manipulation of livingPage 87tissue by the fallen angels led to an unusual body made up of human, animal, and plant genetics known as Nephilim, an earth born facsimile or fit extension into which they could incarnate. Whats more, the long history of demonological phenomenon related to manipulation of biological matter suggests that versions of this curious activity have been ongoing ever since. Former college professor and BBC correspondent (and my dear friend whose celebrated book I was privileged to put back in print), Dr. I.D.E. Thomas in The Omega Conspiracy, chronicled the burgeoning of so-called alien abduction activity and tied it to end-time prophecy concerning the return of the Nephilim. Documentation by abductees worldwide and the stories of DNA harvesting by aliens reminded him of the history of biological misuse by the Watchers, and led Thomas to conclude that the identity of the Watchers and whoever the alien entities are, were somehow connected. Dr. Thomas told me personally that the special desire by these unknown agents for human and animal molecular matter would explain why animals have been killed, mutilated, and stolen by the aliens in UFO flap areas. Respected UFO researcher, Dr. Jacques F. Valle raised similar questions. In order to materialize and take definite form, these entities seem to require a source of energya living thinga human medium. Our sciences have not reached a point where they can offer us any kind of working hypothesis for this process. But we can speculate that these beings need living energy which they can reconstruct into physical form. Perhaps that is why dogs and animals tend to vanish in flap areas. Perhaps the living cells of those animals are somehow used by the ultraterrestrials to create forms which we can see and sense with our limited perceptions. Like Thomas, Valle connected this activity with the legendary acts of the Watchers.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0etype:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 99 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMAre we dealingwith a parallel universe, another dimension, where there areraces only semi-human, so that in order to maintain contact with us, they need cross-breeding with men and woman of our planet? Is this the origin of the many tales and legends where genetics play a great role: . . . the fairy tales involving human midwives and changelings, the sexual overtones of the flying saucer reports, the Biblical stories of intermarriage between the Lords angels and terrestrial women, whose offspring were giants? Whether or not there is a connection between the ancient power behind the Watcher narrative and the modern alien abduction activity documented by Valle and others involving biological harvesting from humans and animals, records from antiquity include mysterious possibilities regarding the ability of the Watchers deceased offspring to return to physical form at particular moments in time. The relationship between the Rephaimthe giant occupants of Canaan (of which Og, King of Bashan whose bed was 18 feet long belonged)and the Nephilim becomes important here, as the Rephaim were associated by the ancients with the shades of the dead including Nephilim in Sheol. The meaning of the word Rephaim is especially germane, as it carries with it the idea to heal or to be healed as in a resurrection from the place of the dead, Sheol-Hades. In the Ras Shamra texts, the Rephaim were described as demigods who worshipped the Amorite god Baal, the ruler of the underworld. When Rephaim died, their spirits went into the underworld where they joined Baals acolyte assembly of lesser gods, kings, heroes, and rulers. These beings had thePage 88power to return from the dead through reincarnation into bodily form as Nephilim. As Mysterious World in Giants in the Earth also included, the Rephaim giants were specifically noted by Moses as being the return of the antediluvian Nephilim, that the Rephaim were in fact the reincarnations of the demonic spirits of the Nephilim giants who had been destroyed in the Flood. A surprise to many Bible students would be to learn that the prophet Isaiah may have considered this Amorite dogma factual, and that he tied the power of these beings to the King of Babylon and Lucifer himself. After prophesying against the Babylonian leader, Isaiah says in parallel to Rephaim theology: Hell [Sheol-Hades] from beneath is moved for thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the dead [Rapha, Raphaim] for thee, even all the chief ones of the earth; it hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the nations. And they shall speak and say unto thee, Art thou also become weak as we? Art thou become like unto us? Isaiah 14:9-10 Immediately following this statement, Isaiah looked beyond the Rephaim at who their Baal actually was, identifying him in verse 12, saying, How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! Other places in the Bible such as Job 26:5 may agree with the idea of a Luciferian power that can, under some circumstances, return Rephaim from the underworld to physical bodies known ashttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 100 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMNephilim. Dead things are formed from under the waters Job says. The dead in this text are Rapha (Rephaim) and the phrase are formed is from Chuwl, meaning to twist or whirl as in a double helix coil or genetic manufacturing. The startling implication of this and similar texts is that beneath the surface of earth, agents of darkness wait the moment of their return. Before the end of this series, we shall consider several ancient documents and scriptures that seem to forecast such a terrifying event for the end-times. A BIBLICAL EXAMPLE OF NEPHILIM RESURRECTION? If indeed the activity of Watchers was the use of biotechnology to produce exotic bodies of flesh for beings that have the ability under extraordinary circumstances to reincarnate after physical death, would the method of their returning from the grave likewise be an advanced form of science? I believe this could be the case, and the Bible may actually provide a record of this occurring. The story is doubly important to our series and the Apollyon Rising 2012 book, because it centers around Nimrod, the original character who later was mythologized as the god prophesied by the Apostle Paul in the New Testament and by the Occult Elite in the Great Seal of the United States as the ancient spirit that will return to earth to rule the Novus Ordo SeclorumApollo/Osiris. Earlier we pointed out how Apollo is reanimated on earth in the end times when the Beast ascends from the Bottomless Pit and goes into perdition (into Apolia, Apollo. See Rev 17:8). The story of Nimrod (Gilgamesh/Apollo/Osiris) in the book of Genesis may illustrate how this could happen through genetic influence or even a retrovirus (of demonic design?) that integrates with a hosts genome and rewrites the living specimens DNA, thus making it a fit extension for infection by the entity. In Genesis 10:8 it says about Nimrod: And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the earth. There are three sections in this unprecedented verse that indicate something very peculiar may havePage 89happened to Nimrod. First, note where the text says, he began to be. In Hebrew this is Chalal and means to become profaned, defiled, polluted or desecrated ritually, sexually or genetically. Second, this verse tells us exactly what Nimrod began to bea mighty one (Gibbowr, Gibborim), one of the offspring of Nephilim. Notwithstanding some of the writing on the Gibborim that my good friend Michael Heiser has done, Reed says in the Cambridge University book Fallen angels and the history of Judaism and Christianity, The Nephilim of Gen 6:4 are always grouped together with the Gibborim as the progeny of the Watchers and human women. [3]. And the third part of this text says the change to Nimrod started while he was on earth. Therefore in modern language this text could accurately be translated to say: And Nimrod began to change genetically, becoming a Gibborim, the offspring of Watchers on earth.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 101 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMTo understand how as a mature, living specimen, Nimrod could have began to be a Gibborim, it is helpful to imagine this in terms of biology, as we know it. For instance not long ago, I began to be a diabetic. Because of poor choices of food, diet and exercise, my doctor tells me that I triggered a genetic inherent and that it began changing me in powerful, metabolic ways. This change is so powerful that today I have to take drugs to keep it from killing me. Yet just because I had the heritable disease-related genotype that can lead to diabetes, this did not mean necessarily that I would develop the medical condition. It is entirely possible to be a carrier of a genetic mutation that increases the risk of developing a particular disease, without ever actually becoming afflicted with the disorder in the course of a lifetime. Due to my earlier lifestyle or maybe even certain environmental conditions I was unaware of, the gene mutation involved in the action of insulin turned on and I began to be a diabetic. Ive often wondered if the record of Nimrod where it says he began to be a Gibborim indicated something similar about his genetics, DNA, or bloodline that turned on as a result of his decisions, triggering a change in him from one type being to another. It is also a possibility, I suppose, that Nimrod became afflicted with a retrovirus that integrated with his genome and, in essence, rewrote his genetic makeup, fashioning him into a fit extension for an under-worldly spirit. When I asked Sharon Gilbert, author of The Armageddon Strain whose formal education includes molecular biology and genetics if she thought this was possible, she said, Absolutely, Tom. Retroviruses essentially inject single-stranded RNA strands into somatic (body) cells during infection. These ssRNA strands access nucleotide pools in the host cell and form a double-stranded DNA copy. This dsDNA can then incorporate itself into the host chromosome using a viral enzyme called integrase. The new fake gene then orders the cell to make more mRNA copies of the original virus RNA. These then travel out of the cell and infect the next cell, and so on. Perhaps this type genetic re-writing is implied in Genesis 10:8 when it says, And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one [Gibborim] in the earth.Page 90In addition to such scientific deduction, another reason I believe this story is suspicious is because of what Nimrod did immediately following Genesis chapter 10. As soon as he began to be a mighty one in the earth, one chapter later he set out to build a tower whose top would reach unto heaven (Gen 11:4). This was the infamous Tower of Babel, and Nimrod was designing it so that the top of it would extend into Shamayim (heaven), the abode of God. Works including The Jewish Encyclopediahttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 102 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMconfirm several historical records that Nimrod, whom they establish was also identified by various ancient cultures alternatively as Osiris, Orion, Apollo, and Gilgamesh, built the Tower of Babel in an attempt to ascend into the presence of God. Jehovah himself came down and said of the towers design, nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do (Gen 11:6). In other words, according to the Lord, Nimrod would have accomplished what he imagined to doto build a tower whose top would reach into the abode of God. That this section of scripture could be viewed as a secondary support for the concept of Nimrod having become revived Watcher offspring is thus supported by Nimrod seeming to abruptly be aware of where and how tall to build a tower so that the top of it would penetrate the dwelling place of God. Were his eyes suddenly opened to realities that are outside mans normal mode of perception? As he became Gibborim, he would have taken on Watchers propensities, which, as angels, could see into the supernatural realm including where heaven is located and possibly where to enter it. Even the name Babylon implies this, meaning the Gate of God or gateway to God. That there could be sacred locations where those beings that can see into the supernatural realm could literally walk up onto a high place and enter heaven is not as far fetched as it sounds. Numerous records including from the Bible appear to substantiate the idea that heaven could be attained on high towers or mountainous locations. Consider Moses meeting with God on Sinai, Jesus returning atop the Mount of Olives, the 200 Watchers that descended in the days of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon (Enoch, 6:6) and other examples including Jacobs ladder. This could also explain why, in the deep recesses of our psyche, people tend to believe they can draw closer to God when going up onto mountains. In addition to the possibility of suddenly seeing into the supernatural realm as a result of integration with fallen angels, if Nimrod was genetically modified according to the original Watcher formula, he would have inherited animal characteristics within his new material makeup, and animals, like angels, seem to perceive domains humans cannot. This includes obvious things such as wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum, but perhaps something more substantial as well, like the spirit realm. This is important to keep in mind as we consider in the next entries how the move by modern scientists to revive Watcher technology and to blend humans with animals could set in motion the return of Nephilim and the coming of Apollo.Chapter 9COULD MODERN SCIENCE PLAY A ROLE IN THE COMING OF APOLLO?

AND THE DEAD WILL RISE AND SMELL THE INCENSE!The Babylonian Creation Epic: Enuma Elish (Magian Version) V In recombinant DNA technology, a transgenic organism is created when the genetic structure of one specie is altered by the transfer of a gene or genes from another. Given that molecular biologists classify the functions of genes within native species but are unsure in many cases how a genes coding might react from one species to another, not only could the genetic structure of the modified animal and its offspring be changed in physical appearance as a result of transgenics, but its evolutionary development, sensory modalities, disease propensity, personality, behavior traits and more. Many readers will be astonished to learn that in spite of these unknowns, such transgenic tinkering is already taking place in most parts of the world including the United States, Britain, and Australia, where animal eggs are being used to create hybrid human embryos from which stem cell lines can be produced for medical research. On March 9, 2009, President Barack Obama signed an executive order providing federal funding to expand this type embryonic research in the United States. Not counting synthetic biology, where entirely new forms of life are being brewed, there is no limit to the number of human-animal concoctions currently under development in laboratories around the world. A team at Newcastle and Durham universities in the UK recently announced plans to create hybrid rabbit and human embryos, as well as other chimera embryos mixing human and cow genes. The same researchers more alarmingly have already managed to reanimate tissue from dead human cells in another breakthrough which was heralded as a way of overcoming ethical dilemmas over using living embryos for medical research. In the United States, similar studies led Irv Weissman, director of Stanford Universitys Institute of Cancer/Stem Cell Biology and Medicine in California to create mice with partly human brains, causing some ethicists to raise the issue of humanized animals in the future that could become self aware as a result of genetic modification. Even former President of the United States, George W. Bush in his January 31st, 2006 State of the Union Address called for legislation to prohibit. creating human-animal hybrids, and buying, selling, or patenting human embryos. His words fell on deaf ears, and now the chimera, or combination of species, is a subject of serious discussion in certain scientific circles, writes senior counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund, Joseph Infranco. We are well beyond the science fiction of H.G. Wells tormented hybrids in The Island of Doctor Moreau; we are in a time where scientists are seriously contemplating the creation of human-animal hybrids. Not everybody shares Infrancos concerns. A radical, international, intellectual, and quickly growing cultural movement known as Transhumanism supports the use of new sciences including genetic modification to enhance human mental and physical abilities and aptitudes so that human beings will eventually be transformed into beings with such greatly expanded abilities as to merit the label posthuman.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 104 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMI have personally debated leading transhumanist, Dr. James Hughes on his weekly syndicated talkPage 92show, Changesurfer Radio. Hughes is Executive Director of the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies and teaches at Trinity College in Hartford Connecticut. He is also the author of Citizen Cyborg: Why Democratic Societies Must Respond to the Redesigned Human of the Future, a sort of Bible for transhumanist values. Dr. Hughes joins a growing body of academics, bioethicists and sociologists who support large-scale genetic and neurological engineering of ourselves.[a] new chapter in evolution [as] the result of accelerating developments in the fields of genomics, stem-cell research, genetic enhancement, germ-line engineering, neuro-pharmacology, artificial intelligence, robotics, pattern recognition technologies, and nanotechnology. at the intersection of science and religion [which has begun to question] what it means to be human. While the transformation of man to posthuman is in its fledgling state, complete integration of the technological singularity necessary to replace existing Homo sapiens as the dominant life form on earth is approaching an exponential curve. National Geographic Magazine speculated in 2007 that within 10 years the first transhumans would walk the earth, and legendary writer Vernor Verge recently stated that we are entering a period in history when questions like what is the meaning of life? will be nothing more than an engineering question. Within thirty years, we will have the technological means to create superhuman intelligence, he told H+ Magazine. Shortly thereafter, the human era will be ended. In preparation of the posthuman revolution, Case Law School in Cleveland was awarded a $773,000 grant in April 2006 from the National Institutes of Health to begin developing guidelines for the use of human subjects in the next frontier in medical technology genetic enhancement. Maxwell Mehlman, Arthur E. Petersilge Professor of Law, director of the Law-Medicine Center at the Case Western Reserve University School of Law, and professor of bioethics in the Case School of Medicine led the team of law professors, physicians, and bioethicists over the two-year project to develop standards for tests on human subjects in research that involves the use of genetic technologies to enhance normal individuals. Following this study, Mehlman began in 2009 offering university lectures such as Directed Evolution: Public Policy and Human Enhancement as well as Transhumanism and the Future of Democracy addressing the need for society to comprehend how emerging fields of science will, in approaching years, alter what it means to be human, and what this means to democracy, individual rights, free will, eugenics and equality. Other law schools including Stanford and Oxford have hosted similar Human Enhancement and Technology conferences where transhumanists, futurists, bioethicists and legal scholars have been busying themselves with the ethical, legal, and inevitable ramifications of posthumanity. As the Director of the Future of Humanity Institute and a Professor of Philosophy at Oxford University, Nick Bostrom (nickbostrom.com) is another leading advocate of transhumanism who, like the Watchers before him, envisionshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 105 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMre-manufacturing humans with animals, plants and other synthetic life forms through the use of modern sciences. When describing the benefits of man-with-beast combinations in his online thesis Transhumanist Values, Bostrom cites how animals have sonar, magnetic orientation, or sensors for electricity and vibration among other extra-human abilities. He goes on to include how the range of sensory modalities for transhumans would not be limited to those among animals, and that there is no fundamental block to adding say a capacity to see infrared radiation or to perceive radio signals and perhaps to add some kind of telepathic sense by augmenting our brains.Page 93Bostrom is correct in that the animal kingdom has levels of perception beyond human. Some animals can sense earthquakes and smell tumors. Others, like dogs, can hear sounds as high as 40,000 Hz and dolphins can hear even higher. It is also known that at least some animalslike Nimrod may have been able to do once he became Gibborisee wavelengths beyond normal human capacity. Incidentally, what Bostrom may also understand and anticipate is that, according to the biblical story of Balaams donkey, certain animals see into the spirit world. At Arizona State University where the Templeton Foundation is currently funding a series of lectures titled, Facing the Challenges of Transhumanism: Religion, Science, Technology , transhumanism is specifically viewed as possibly effecting supernatural transformation, not just physical. Called the next epoch in human evolution, some of the lecturers at ASU believe radical alteration of Homo sapiens could open a door to unseen intelligence. Consequently, ASU launched another study in 2009 to explore communication with entities. Called the SOPHIA project (after the Greek goddess), the express purpose of the study is to verify communication with Deceased People, Spirit Guides, Angels, Other-Worldly Entities / Extraterrestrials, and / or a Universal Intelligence / God. Imagine what this could mean if government laboratories with unlimited budgets working beyond congressional review were to decode the gene functions that lead animals to have preternatural capabilities of sense, smell, and sight, and then blended them with Homo sapiens. Among other things, the ultimate psychotronic weapon could be created for use against entire populations genetically engineered Nephilim agents that appear to be human but who hypothetically see and even interact with invisible forces. While the former chairman of the Presidents Council on Bioethics, Leon Kass does not elaborate on the same type issues, he provided a status report on how real and how frightening the dangers of such biotechnology could imminently be in the hands of transhumanists. In the introduction to his book Life, Liberty and the Defense of Dignity: The Challenges of Bioethics, Kass warned: Human nature itself lies on the operating table, ready for alteration, for eugenic and psychic enhancement, for wholesale redesign. In leading laboratories, academic and industrial, new creators are confidently amassing their powers and quietly honing theirhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 106 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMskills, while on the street their evangelists are zealously prophesying a posthuman future. For anyone who cares about preserving our humanity, the time has come for paying attention. The warning by Kass of the potential hazards of emerging technologies coupled with transhumanist aspirations is not an overreaction. One law school in the UK where CSI students are taught crime scene investigation is already discussing the need to add classes in the future devoted to analyzing crime scenes committed by posthumans. The requirement for such specially trained law enforcement personnel will arise due to part-human part-animal beings possessing behavior patterns not consistent with present day profiling or forensics understanding. Add to this other unknowns such as memory transference (an entirely new field of study showing that complex behavior patterns and even memories can be transferred from donors of large human organs to their recipients) and the potential for tomorrows human-animal chimera issues multiply. How would the memories, behavior patterns or instincts lets say of a wolf effect the mind of a human? That such unprecedented questions willPage 94have to be dealt with sooner than later has already been illustrated in animal-to-animal experiments, including those conducted by Evan Balaban at McGill University in Montreal where sections of brain from embryonic quails were transplanted into the brains of chickens, and the resultant chickens exhibited head bobs and vocal trills unique to quail. The implication from this field of study alone suggest transhumans will likely bare unintended behavior and appetite disorders that could literally produce lycanthropes (werewolves) and other nightmarish Nephilim traits. As troubling as those thoughts are, they could be just the tip of the iceberg as one-on-one interpersonal malevolence by human-animals are quickly overshadowed by global acts of swarm violence. The possibility of groups of 'transhuman terrorists' in the conceivable future is real enough that a House Foreign Affairs committee chaired by California Democrat Brad Sherman, best known for his expertise on the spread of nuclear weapons and terrorism, is among a number of government panels and think-tanks currently studying the implications of genetic modification and humantransforming technologies related to future terrorism. CQ Columnist Mark Stencel listened to the recent HFA committee hearings and wrote in his March 15, 2009 article, Futurist: Genes Without Borders, that the conference 'sounded more like a Hollywood pitch for a sci-fi thriller than a sober discussion of scientific reality with talk of biotechs potential for creating supersoldiers, superintelligence and superanimals [that could become] agents of unprecedented lethal force.' George Annas, Lori Andrews, and Rosario Isasi were even more apocalyptic in their American Journal of Law and Medicine article, Protecting the Endangered Human: Toward an International Treaty Prohibiting Cloning and Inheritable Alterations when they wrote: 'The new species, or posthuman, will likely view the old normal humans as inferior, even savages, and fit for slavery or slaughter. The normals, on the other hand, may see thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 107 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMposthumans as a threat and if they can, may engage in a preemptive strike by killing the posthumans before they themselves are killed or enslaved by them. It is ultimately this predictable potential for genocide that makes species-altering experiments potential weapons of mass destruction, and makes the unaccountable genetic engineer a potential bioterrorist.' Observations like those of Annas, Andrews, and Isasi cause one to wonder if this is not how the servants of Antichrist move with such compassionless brutality in rounding up to destroy all who refuse to receive the Mark of the Beast. Not to be outpaced in this regard by rogue fringe scientists or even bio-terrorists, DARPA and other agencies of the U.S. military have taken inspiration from the likes of Tolkeins Lord of the Rings, and in scenes reminiscent of Saruman the wizard creating monstrous Uruk-Hai to wage unending, merciless war, billions of American tax dollars have flowed into the Pentagons Frankensteinian dream of 'super-soldiers' and 'Extended Performance War Fighter' programs. Not only does the EPWFP envision 'injecting young men and women with hormonal, neurological and genetic concoctions; implanting microchips and electrodes in their bodies to control their internal organs and brain functions; and plying them with drugs that deaden some of their normal human tendencies: the need for sleep, the fear of death, [and] the reluctance to kill their fellow human beings,' but as Chris Floyd in an article for CounterPunch a while back continued, 'some of the research now underwayPage 95involves actually altering the genetic code of soldiers, modifying bits of DNA to fashion a new type of human specimen, one that functions like a machine, killing tirelessly for days and nights on end.. mutations [that] will revolutionize the contemporary order of battle and guarantee operational dominance across the whole range of potential U.S. military employments.' In keeping with our study, imagine the staggering implications of such science if dead Nephilim tissue was discovered with intact DNA and a government somewhere was willing to clone or mingle the extracted organisms to make Homo-nephilim. If one accepts the biblical story of Nephilim as real, such discovery could actually be made someday or perhaps already has been and was covered up. As an example of this possibility, in 2009 blood was extracted from the bone of a dinosaur that scientists insist is 80 million years old. Nephilim would have existed in relatively recent times comparably, making clonable material from dead biblical giants feasible. The technology to resurrect the extinct species already exists, and cloning methods are being studied now for use with bringing back Tasmanian Tigers, Wooly Mammoths and other extinguished creatures. National Geographic also confirmed this possibility in their May 2009 special report Recipe for a Resurrection, quoting Hendrik Poinar of McMaster University, an authority on ancient DNA who served as a scientific consultant for the movie Jurassic Park, saying: 'I laughed when Steven Spielberg said that cloning extinct animals was inevitable. But Im not laughing anymore.. This is going to happen. Its just a matter of workinghttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 108 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMout the details.' From Jurassic Park to the Tomb of Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod Will the same technology lead to the resurrection of the pagan deity Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod, who returns to rule the Novus Order Seclorum? Is material from the deitys body concealed in a tomb at Giza or in Washington, DC or in the sacred casket that former U.S. Vice President Henry Wallace mentioned in his letter to Nicholas Roerich, considered in esoteric circles to be the same as the casket or coffin of Osiris? If so, is it conceivable that plans to revive the Apollonian tissue using biotechnology have already been made, or worse, have already been accomplished and the pagan god waits the moment of its unveiling? People not familiar with biblical eschatology may find this idea fantastic, that the being who becomes the Antichrist was once alive, then was dead, and returns from the grave to rule the Novus Ordo Seclorum. But this is exactly what Revelation 17:8 appears to say will happen: 'The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition [Apoleia, Apollo]: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.' Further, the mythos of the Eye of Horus on the Great Seal, which so fascinated Wallace and company, represents this very concept of deity incarnation into the 'King' that is to rule. As mentioned earlier in this blog series, in ancient Egypt where this Great Seal symbol originated, each Pharaoh 'became' the incarnation of the falcon god Horus during his lifetime, and at death, the Osiristhe divine judge of the netherworld. As biotechnology and synthetic biology advance to the degree that we can now realistically anticipate reviving long-dead species, I have been able to convince a few scholarly minds that the Man of Sin could in fact be the return of a deceased Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod who arrives via biotech resurrection. Even Chuck Missler, though not with the same details, raised the appropriate question not long ago in an online article about the Antichrist: 'Could it be that this final world dictator will be, in some sense, a return of Nimrod?' (http://www.khouse.org/articles/2002/433/) In my opinion, this is more than aPage 96possibility, and I remember with curiosity how in 1998, Zahi Hawass, the current Secretary General of Egypts Supreme Council of Antiquities, claimed to have found the burial tomb of the god Osiris (Apollo/Nimrod) at the Giza Plateau. In the article Sandpit of Royalty from the newspaper Extra Bladet (Copenhagen), January 31, 1999, Hawass was quoted saying: 'I have found a shaft, going 29 meters vertically down into the ground, exactly halfway between the Chefren Pyramid and the Sphinx. At the bottom, which was filled with water, we have found a burial chamber with four pillars. In the middle is a large granite sarcophagus, which I expect to be the grave of Osiris, the godI have been digging in Egypts sand for morehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 109 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthan 30 years, and up to date this is the most exciting discovery I have made. We found the shaft in November and began pumping up the water recently. So several years will pass before we have finished investigating the find.' Insofar as we know this discovery did not ultimately provide the physical remains of the deity. Of course, that is, in as far as we know. But what it did illustrate is that at least some very powerful Egyptologists believe Osiris was a historical figure, and that his body was stored somewhere at or near the Great Pyramid. Manly P. Hall, who knew the Masonic legend of Hiram Abiff was a thinly veiled prophecy of the resurrection of Osiris, seems to have understood what Zahi Hawass was looking for, and why. Consider that he wrote in The Secret Teachings of All Ages: 'The Dying God shall rise again! The secret room in the House of the Hidden Places shall be rediscovered. The Pyramid again shall stand as the ideal emblem of solidarity, inspiration, aspiration, resurrection, and regeneration. Over the years, biblical scholar Gary Stearman has written extensively about Nimrod (Apollo/Osiris/Gilgamesh) and the connection this historical figure has with Babylonian Mystery Religion, Watchers, Nephilim (including their resurrection), and the spirit of the end-times Antichrist and revival of paganism. He too appears to believe the coming of Antichrist represents a return of Nimrod. 'But who is this Assyrian,' he asked in the July 2001 Prophecy in the News Magazine, 'He is none other than the spiritual inheritor of the first great post-Flood religious apostasy. He is the keeper of the great heritage that began at the Assyrian capital, Nineveh. Its founder was Nimrod. He is the Antichrist, the future despot who comes in the name of the ancient mystery religion.' A year earlier, in June of 2000, Stearman had written in Prophecy in the News concerning Nimrod: 'He was a rebel who allowed himself to be worshipped as a god. After the Flood, his rebellion became the foundation of mankinds greatest religious apostasy. Down through the generations, this system of false worship became known simply as the 'Babylonian Mystery Religion.' Its basis is quite clear. It attempts to channel the power of the ancient gods through the figure of one, powerful man. Nimrod became that god' [emphasis added].Page 97Alexander Hislop in his classic text The Two Babylons substantiates Stearmans thesis that the Babylonian Mystery Religion was based on the worship of Nimrod. 'It was to glorify Nimrod that the whole Chaldean system of iniquity was formed,' he wrote (p.20). Yet Stearman sees that the Mystery Religion continued secretly through the ages, shrouded in hiding by adepts of the occult in anticipation of a final moment when the ancient spirit should be awakened.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 110 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AM'corrupt priesthoods have flourished, carrying with them the shadow of Nimrod and his ancient mysteries. Their inner secrets have been known by various names, including alchemy, magic, sorcery, conjuring, soothsaying and so forth. waiting for the prophesied day when it would rise once again. This movement will result in the reign of the Antichrist.' In addition to the supernatural aspects that biotechnology could provide the Luciferian technology to resurrect Nimrod/Apollo/Osiris in the person of the last days Man of Sin, the ramifications of using the same science to revive extinct animals, Nephilim, or to create newly engineered versions of demigods and mythological animals may also play a role in the Kingdom of Antichrist. This is because as interbreeding begins between transgenic animals, genetically modified humans, and specie as God made them, the altered DNA will quickly migrate into the natural environment, and when that happens (as is already occurring among genetically modified plants and animals), alien and/or animal characteristics will be introduced to the human gene pool and spread through intermarriage, altering the human genetic code and eventually eliminating humanity as we know it. This is what happened before the Great Flood according to many theologians, and perhaps that has been the whole idea for the end-times as wellto create a generation of genetically altered Nimrods to serve as fit extensions for the resurrection of underworld Nephilim-hordes in preparation of Armageddon. Does a curious verse in the book of Daniel hint at this? Speaking of the last days of human government, Daniel said: 'they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay' (Dan. 2:43). While Daniel does not explain who they that 'mingle themselves with the seed of men' are, the personal pronoun they caused Chuck Missler and Mark Eastman in their book Alien Encounters to ask: 'Just what (or who) are mingling with the seed of men? Who are these Non-seed? It staggers the mind to contemplate the potential significance of Daniels passage and its implications for the future global governance.' Daniels verse troubled Missler and Eastman because it seemed to indicate that the same phenomenon that occurred in Genesis chapter 6 where non-human species or non-seed mingled with human seed and produced Nephilim, would happen again in the end times. When this verse from Daniel is coupled with Genesis 3:15, which says, 'And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed [zera, meaning 'offspring,' 'descendents,' or 'children'] and her seed,' an incredible tenant emergesthat Satan has seed, and that it is at enmity with Christ. To mingle non-human seed with Homo sapiens through altering human DNA while simultaneously returning Nephilim to earth has been the inspiration of the spirit of antichrist ever since God during the Great Flood halted the practice. According to Louis Pauwells & Jacques Bergier in The Dawn of Magic (first published in France under the title 'Le Matin des Magiciens' 1960 by Editions Gallimard, Paris), this was certainly the goal of the antichrist Adolf Hitler:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 111 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 98Hitlers aim was neither the founding of a race of supermen, nor the conquest of the world; these were only means towards the realization of the great work he dreamed of. His real aim was to perform an act of creation, a divine operation, the goal of a biological mutation which would result in an unprecedented exaltation of the human race and the 'apparition of a new race of heroes and demigods and god-men.' One cannot read the conclusion by Pauwells and Bergier regarding Hitlers antichrist ambition without seeing how it corresponds perfectly with the Cumaean Sibyls prophecy pertaining to the coming of Apollo, who receives 'the life of gods, and sees Heroes with gods commingling.' This calls to mind that from the Middle Ages forward, church leaders have believed the Antichrist would ultimately represent the return of the Nephilimthe reunion of demons with humans. St. Augustine himself wrote of such demoniality in the City of God , and in the De Daemonialitate, et Incubis, et Succubi, Fr. Ludovicus Maria Sinistrari de Ameno (1622-1701) also perceived the coming of Antichrist as representing the biological hybridization of demons with humans. 'To theologians and philosophers,' he wrote, 'it is a fact, that from the copulation of humans with the demonAntichrist must be born.' The English theologian George Hawkins Pember agreed with this premise, and in his 1876 masterpiece Earths Earliest Ages he analyzed the prophecy of Christ that says the end-times would be a repeat of 'the days of Noah.' Pember outlined the seven great causes of the antediluvian destruction and documented their developmental beginnings in his lifetime. The seventh and most fearful sign, Pember wrote, would be the return of the Nephilim, 'The appearance upon earth of beings from the Principality of the Air, and their unlawful intercourse with the human race.' Consequently, if the Antichrist is the reincarnation of the demon Apollo as prophesied by the Apostle Paul, not only will he be the exact opposite of Jesus (Son of God), but the forerunner of the return of the Nephilim. The prophet Isaiah (chapters 13 and 14) likewise spoke of the return of these beings, and tied the advent to the destruction of the city of Babylon in the final age. The following verse should give us pause in light of the ongoing presence of US armed forces in Iraq/Babylon and the powder keg surrounding it. From the Septuagint, we read: The vision which Esaias son of Amos saw against Babylon. Lift up a standard on the mountain of the plain, exalt the voice to them, beckon with the hand, open the gates, ye ruler. I give command and I bring them: giants are coming to fulfill my wrath. For behold! the day of the Lord is coming which cannot be escaped, a day of wrath and anger, to make the world desolate. And Babylonshall be as when God overthrew Sodoma and Gomorrah. It shall never be inhabitedand monsters shall rest there, and devils shall dance there and satyrs shall dwell there . . . (Isaiah 13:1-3, 9, 19-22). One can only speculate if something more than is casually perceived is meant by Isaiah when he says, 'open the gates, ye ruler,' but whoever this ruler is, he opens gates in Iraq/Babylon through which end-times giants (Gibborim) return to the surface of earth as agents of Gods wrath. Noting that Isaiahhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 112 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMties the destruction of Iraq/Babylon with the reappearance of Gibborim in this way, we recall how thousands of US troops on invading Iraq during the Bush administration admittedly filled U.S. containers with archaeological materials, including what some have speculated to be cuneiformPage 99tablets pointing to the location of pure-blooded Nephilim buried in underground caves. This is exactly where Enoch said the antediluvian Nephilim are, and raises fascinating questions: Would agencies like DARPA have interest in studying or cloning the extinct beings if they were, or have been, found? Could man in his arrogance revive ancient DNA, revitalizing or blending it with other living organisms in a way similar to what the Watchers did in making the first Nephilim? Is this how the Rephaim (dead Nephilim) who are viewed as squirming beneath the surface of the earth, rise to challenge the armies of God during Armageddon? Is the factual reappearance on earth of legendary beings verified by Isaiah, who foresaw creatures such as satyrs (transgenic half-man half-goats) accompanying the return of giants in the end-times, or why other Apocryphal Books like 2 Esdras 5:8 prophesy the birth of 'monsters' for the same period of time? Some may be shocked to learn that in addition to the citations above, the Bible actually describes an end-times confrontation between the mythological gods and Christ. 'The Lord will be terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth' says Zephaniah 2:11. 'The Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, saith; Behold, I will punish the gods' (Jer. 46:25). Human followers of the pagan deities will also join the conflict, calling upon their 'idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood' (Rev. 9:20) to convene their powers against the Christian God, uniting with 'unclean spirits like frogs the spirits of devils working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth to gather them to the battle of that great day [to] a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon [Megiddo]' (Rev. 16:13-14;16). Given that the prophets foretold a day when mythical characters and 'gods' would return to earth to conduct war against the God of the Bible, it is more than a little disturbing that man has, for the first time since before the Great Flood, intentionally set course to repeat what ancient records say the Watchers did. The accelerated pace by scientific exploration against Gods Divine Order, and the subsequent revival of Watcher technology leading to transhuman or revived forms of Nephilim, has without doubt pushed the end-times clock closer to midnight than most comprehend. ENOCHS 70 GENERATIONS: IS THAT THE GROUND I FEEL RUMBLING? Enoch was the son of Jared, father of Methuselah and greatgrandfather of Noah whose writings provide the most detailed account of the fall of the 'Watchers,' the angels who fathered the infamous Nephilim. While the book of Enoch is no longer included in most versions of the Bible, Enochs writings are quoted in the New Testament in at least two places, and he is mentioned by name in both the Old and New Testaments, including Jude 14-15 where one of his prophecies is cited. During the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, pre-Maccabean fragmentshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 113 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMof the Book of Enoch were found, helping scholars to verify the books antiquity while also illustrating that the ancients held these texts to be inspired. Many early Church Fathers likewise considered the Book of Enoch to be sacred, including Tertullian, Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Origen and Clement of Alexandria. This is an important fact because if Enoch was truly a prophet, then the world may be in for an unfathomable surprise concerning the return of Nephilim, and soon. In the tenth chapter of the book of Enoch, it says the Watchers who were judged during the flood would be bound beneath the hills of the earth for 70 generations, until the day of their final judgment when they will be released from those confines and thrown into an abyss of fire, 'to the torment andPage 100the prison in which they shall be confined for ever.' But in the fifteenth chapter, Enoch writes about the deceased offspring of the Watchers, the giants or Nephilim, and describes them as being released at the same time to bring slaughter and destruction upon man: 'The spirits of the giantsshall be concealed, and shall not rise up against the sons of men, and against women; until they come forth during the days of slaughter and destruction' (Enoch 15:9-10). This particular prophecy mirrors those of Isaiah and other apocryphal works, which indicate a future date in which Watchers will rise for judgment while their giant offspring resurrect 'from beneath the hills of the earth' to wreak havoc upon earth. According to Enoch, this unparalleled event is scheduled to occur after 70 generations have passed from the time of the Flood. This could be troubling. Although traditional scholarship places the time of the Great Flood between BC 2500 and 2300, modern dating by some researchers has roughly estimated the flood to have actually transpired between BC 2800 and 2900. For instance this is the dating given by a group of scientists from the USA, Russia, Australia, France, and Ireland known as the Holocene Impact Working Group who hypothesize the Great Flood resulted from a comet striking the Indian Ocean between 2800-2900 BC, resulting in a mega-tsunami. Because a prophetic generation is 70 years based on Psalm 90:10 ('The days of our years are threescore years and ten'), Enochs 70 generations times 70 years equals exactly 4900 years forward from the flood. If the flood took place between BC 2800 and 2900, this brings the return of the Nephilim to the immediate hour. In other words, if this BC 2800 to 2900 dating is correct, mankind is on the threshold of Watchers being raised from their underground prisons and thrown into an abyss of fire, while their giant offspring return to the surface of earth in violent fulfillment of multiple prophecies (and does this coincide with the Mayan 2012 return of Quatzlecoatl?) We have no idea whether the modern time frame for the Great Flood is reasonable, but the Book ofhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 114 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMJubileesanother apocryphal textseems to verify this frightening scenario, prophesying Nephilim on earth in the last days. Again, the familiar word 'corruption' turns up in association with these beings, insinuating an end-times repeat of what the Watchers did by corrupting human DNA and blending it with animals to retrofit human bodies for Nephilim incarnation. Note that this happens just before Satan is judged. 'The malignant evil ones [spirits of Nephilim destroyed in the flood] were bound in the place of condemnation, but a tenth part of them were left that they might be subject before Satan on the earth. These are for corruption [corruption of DNA as in days of old?] and leading astray men before Satans judgment' (10:7-12). Finally, a prophecy in the second chapter of the Book of Joel could refer to the same end-times volcano of resurrected Nephilim. While some expositors say Joel was most likely describing an army of locusts, with phrases like '[They are] a great people and a strong' and 'they shall run like mighty men [Gibborim]' it is reasonable to question if in fact these verses are talking about grasshoppers. '[They are] a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall bePage 101any more after it and nothing shall escape them. The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. They shall run like mighty men [Gibbowr, Gibborim]; they shall climb the wall like men of war. They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. The earth shall quake before them. And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?' (Joel 2:2-11) When the numerous ancient texts from inerrant Scriptures to extra-biblical sources are added up, there is persuasive evidence that Joels army could indeed be more than simple grasshoppers, and that this massive Gibborim army that runs upon the wall from which nobody can escape could be the result of mans willingness to play 'god' in reviving forbidden science and opening 'gates' to what lurks beyond.Chapter 10OTHER USEFUL BIOTECH TOOLS FOR ANTICHRIST By responsible use of science, technology, and other rational means we shall eventually manage to become posthuman.Prof. Nick Bostromhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 115 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMWe can devise ways of at least trying to manage the enormous powers of nanotechnology, but superintelligence by its nature cannot be controlled.

Meekins Not long ago a writer for Wired Magazine named Elizabeth Svoboda contacted me to let me know she was writing an article about research advances using transgenic animals to produce pharmaceutical compounds. She had come across an editorial by me raising caution about this kind of experimentation, and wondered if I might be willing to provide points for her article, elaborating areas where I saw producing transgenic animals as potentially harmful. She stated that most of the scientists she planned to quote were pretty gung-ho about the practice, and thought it would be important to provide some balance. I thanked her for the invitation, and sent a short summary of some, though not all, of the areas where concerns about this science could be raised. When the article was finally published by Wired Magazine, I was surprised that none of my notes had made it into the story. I contacted Elizabeth and asked why, and she replied, Unfortunately, my editors cut your quotes during the editing process, which were originally included in my articlePage 102Pharm Animals Crank Out Drugs. She apologized and said she hoped the experience had not soured me on dealing with Wired Magazine. It doesnt sour me, I assured her. I just think the reporting by most agencies is lopsided and missing the opportunity to thoroughly engage such an important issue. The Wired Magazine article was mostly positive on transgenic research and concluded with a scientist by the name of Marie Cecile Van de Lavoir saying that potential human health benefits from transgenic research justify tinkering with natures plan. If a transgenic animal produces a great cancer therapy, she said, I wont hear anyone saying, You shouldnt do that. Van de Lavoirs comments were undoubtedly in response to some of my observations before they were cut, because in offering caution I had specifically used the phrase tinkering with natures plan. Van de Lavoirs short-sided approach, like many bioethicists engaged in the current debate, is as scary as the science in my opinion. I wanted to contact her to suggest that she watch the film I Am Legend, which opens appropriately enough with a scientist announcing the cure to cancer using a genetically engineered virus that blends animal and human genetics. If youve seen the film, you know the curehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 116 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMresults in a human form of rabies that wipes out most life on earth, a real possibility given the scenario. While I believe some positive things will come from biotechnology, nanotechnology, and synthetic biology, it is the prophetic expectance of these new/old fields of science that intrigues me. Besides potentially being a mechanism that unseen forces could use to incarnate the Man of Sin and raise from Sheol-Hades his army of extinct Nephilim in time for Armageddon, biotechnology could provide a number of other useful tools for facilitating the empire of Antichrist, including eugenics, food contagions, hybrid viruses, prion contamination, exotic new diseases and plagues of biblical proportions, just to name a few. Because we cannot take time in this series to properly cover each of these risks, we present two aspects of biotech (in addition to Apollonian and Nephilim resurrection) that could eventually stand out as related to the book of Revelation and the advent of Antichrist. These would be 1) end-time plagues and 2) the Mark of the Beast. Credit must be given to my perfect wife Nita who first brought to my attention the unique idea of biotech and the Mark of the Beast, and two of my favorite writersSharon Gilbert and Sue Bradley who offered their expertise in defining the following two points. 1) MODERN WATCHER SCIENCE & OPENING PANDORAS BOX In 1818, Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein, first described her expedition into murky subterranean passages within the trapezoid cavern of Cumaean Sibyl near Naples, Italy. It was here, in the cave so frequently described in Virgils first century Eclogues and neid, that Shelley asserts she discovered the ancient apocalyptic writings of the Roman prophetess Cumaean Sybil, recorded on oak leaves. Translating and editing the Sibylline Prophecies, Mary Shelley published The Last Man in 1826. Described as a memory at the end of history The Last Man begins, let me fancy myself as I was in 2094 and continues to describe an horrific plague that destroys mankind as a species. The LastPage 103Man would become the first modern account of an apocalyptic pandemic and disturbingly, would be written as a nihilist narrative in a posthuman era. Contagion, the transmission of disease, has always been a unique entity, surpassing all potential cataclysms with its singular characteristic of being entirely sovereign and nondiscriminatory. Borderless, apolitical, and smugly defiant, disease has spread, multiplied and mutated and has historically shown deference to no one. Though mortality estimates of pandemics throughout history are often unreliable (if not entirely unknown), their impact has often been measured only by these statistics, with less examination of concurrent societal disruption. With the exception of medical and scientific study, epidemics werehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 117 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMunderstood mostly within their literary and classical context. Childrens songs, nursery rhymes and colloquialisms would hint of their impact, but nothing in recent memory would demand the serious attention of many in western society. The sustained scourge of AIDS is familiar in concept, but easily dismissed unless there is direct involvement. Ebola, cholera, plague, Marburg, SARS and anthrax are serious sounding, but largely irrelevant to the generations raised in a society of eradication vaccines and fix em fast antibiotics. Nonetheless there has been growing concern among modern experts of the fast-rising density of human populations and the immediate need to strategize to avoid high death tolls in inevitable natural disasters. Similarly, public health experts warn that vigilance and speed in tracking and responding to disease outbreaks is vital to limit the chances of a pandemic. Every age in history has had its plagues, wars and disasters. What is different about our world today is the enormous potential of a catastrophic pandemic situation. A public health emergency at this level would be far more catastrophic than any other type of naturally occurring, accidental or other instigated event the world has experienced. While Hollywood has steadily inoculated the comfortably preoccupied masses with remarkably prescient bio-threat scenarios, I Am Legend, Outbreak, The Stand, V for Vendetta, the very real and prolific research programs began to notice that life forms confined to the microscopic realm were changing: rapidly, sometimes predictably, oftentimes unpredictably and in some instances, chillingly purposefully. Add to this the unpleasant reality of biological warfare, which begins in its ancient past and ends in a time yet forward. From poisoning enemy wells, hurling dead corpses over city walls or giving smallpox ridden blankets to American Indians, it is difficult to grasp the concept of being assaulted by a living, albeit microscopic, enemy. But the plagues of history past bear little resemblance to their emergent constructs. As science continued its quest for unlocking DNA, a parallel priority - with a far more sinister agenda - was already growing and on the loose. Designed for maximum casualties and high emotional impact, this nano-army can be crafted for ethnic specific targeting. Despite warnings and flags, these unseen warriors are eager to meet their new hosts and are prepared to launch a new campaign,Page 104promising to reveal themselves in all of their horror, in an unprecedented spectacular finale. In Plague Wars: The Terrifying Reality of Biological Warfare, authors Tom Mangold and Jeff Goldberg assert that, Biological weapons are both more immoral and more lethal than their pestilential cohortshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 118 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMin the nuclear and chemical armory, for infecting the enemy aggressor can infect his own side; the pathogens blur the lines between peace and war as they silently spread through the ranks of families and non-combatants But for some who wore cloaks and broke the rules, exotic bugs and toxins were preferable to daggers. To contemplate their use is to wink at evil, for pestilence and poison are afflictions as much as weapons. Creations on the drawing board that promise exotic delivery systems for dispersing the biological materials are no less startling. Recently the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported that Israel is using nanotechnology to create a robot no bigger than a hornet that would be able to chase, corner, photograph and deliver lethal agents to kill its targets. The flying robot, nicknamed the bionic hornet, would be able to navigate its way down narrow alleyways to target otherwise unreachable enemies. Similar biomechanic developments in the United States are being funded by DARPA where cyborg-insect interfaces envision warbots no bigger than a bug that can take to the battlefield one at a time as spies or in swarms powerful enough to bring down fighter jets. The same micro-mechanical insect sentinels could serve up biological weapons, delivering viruses, bacteria, toxins, or microorganisms that afflict or destroy people, animals, and agriculture. While such stratagems obviously appeal to the highest levels of US military intelligence, theologians will be troubled by glaring similarities between this technology and biblical predictions of an endtime spiral by mankind into a cataclysmic war where locust-sized weapons are given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power (Rev. 9:3).In describing the activity of the Antichrist demon Apollo, Revelation 9:1-11 says this king of transgenic locusts opens the bottomless pit and releases synthesized insectoids to torment mankind. Some scholars believe when John the Revelator made these recordings, he was actually describing future technologies and that he simply referred to the bio-mechanized hybrids in terms he understood; i.e. swarms of Israels bionic hornet were perceived as locusts whose wings sounded like many horses running to battle (Rev. 9:9). Are the locust hoards of Revelation chapter 9 created in human laboratories that employ the same Watchers technology we believe could give rise to Apollos return? Could be, and these less glamorous and decidedly more dramatic bio products seek a more pernicious and indelible glow than the cutesy biologic novelties the public has seen so fargenetically engineered puppies that glow in the dark, fish and plants. Plum Island and NESThttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 119 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 105Located off the NE Coast of Long Island, NY, beyond Montauk, the Plum Island Animal Disease Center (PIADC) is a Level 3 Biosafety Agriculture facility. Transferred in 2002 from the US Department of Agriculture to the US Department of Homeland Security, Plum Island is a federal facility for the research and investigation of foreign and domestic animal pathogens. Plum Islands offshore status allows the study of forbidden mainland organisms including the housing of freezers which contain samples of polio and other microbial diseases that can be transferred from animals to humans. NEST on the other hand (Nuclear Emergency Support Team) is one of seven emergency response branches of the US Department of Energys Nuclear Safety Administration. Information from the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists indicates that NEST has the ability to deploy up to 600 experts in the event of an incident alongside the Federal Bureau of Investigations Domestic Emergency Support Team or the State Departments Foreign Emergency Support Team. In February, 2004, Popular Mechanics magazine featured a cover story, When UFOs Arrive that described such an incident scenario where NEST would be activated. Within the seemingly whimsical text, story author Jim Wilson wrote: State Of Emergency: If ET turns up at NASAs doorstep bearing that invitation, it is in for a surprise. Instead of getting a handshake from the head of NASA, it will be handcuffed by an FBI agent dressed in a Biosafety Level 4 suit. Instead of sleeping in the Lincoln Bedroom at the White House, the alien will be whisked away to the Department of Agricultures Animal Disease Center on Plum Island, off the coast of New Yorks Long Island. Here it will be poked and probed by doctors from the National Institutes of Health. A Department of Energy (DOE) Nuclear Emergency Search Team (NEST) will tow away its spacecraft. Unfriendly as this welcome may seem, it is the chain of events that most likely will follow the visitors arrival. Unique as the appearance of an alien-piloted spacecraft may be, the event incorporates elements of three situations familiar to federal emergency response workers: a plane crash, the release of radioactive material, and the capture of an animal suspected of harboring a contagious disease. Responsibilities in these situations are spelled out in Presidential Executive Orders. All of the prophets including Jesus Christ prophesied that the last days would witness NEST-like incidences where unexpected nuclear and/or biological pestilences (Mt. 24:7) wash upon earth. Zechariah the prophet provided a vivid description of one such plague, saying, Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth (14:12). Though Mary Shelleys Apocalyptic pandemic in The Last Man does not sit authoritatively on the same shelf as Scripture, it is worth remembering her insistence that this work is a translation of the nine ancient Sibylline Books as recorded by the priestess Cumaean Sibyl while presiding over the Apollonian oraclethe samehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 120 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMprophetess whose Novus Ordo Seclorum rests upon the Great Seal of the United States pointing to the arrival of the deity that Scripture and Occultists agree comes to rule the final pagan empire. WillPage 106biotech play a role in the fulfillment of her prophecies by providing the tools to raise her god and the plagues Scripture say will accompany him? We will reveal that People in high places believe so, but first in the next entry we consider how the same Watcher technology could give rise to the Mark of the Beast.2)MODERN WATCHER SCIENCE & THE MARK OF THE BEAST A year or two ago, my wife Nita brought up a point I had never considered up until then. She asked if the biblical Mark of the Beast might be a conspiracy employing biotechnology in the form of a manufactured virus, a bioweapon. Her theory was gripping. An occult elite operating behind the US Government devises a virus that is a crossover between human and animal disease, lets say an entirely new and highly contagious influenza mutation, and intentionally releases it into the public. A pandemic ensues, and the period between when a person contracts the virus and death is something like 10 days. With tens of thousands dead in a few weeks and the rate of death increasing hourly around the globe, a universal cry for a cure goes out. Seemingly miraculously, the government then steps forward with a vaccine. The only catch, they explain, is that given the nature of the animalhuman strain, the cure rewrites ones genetics, so that they are no longer entirely human. Nitas point was that those who receive this antidote would become part beast and thus the title, Mark of the Beast. No longer entirely human would also meanaccording to this outlinethat the individual could no longer be saved or go to heaven, explaining why the book of Revelation says whosoever receiveth the mark is damned forever while also explaining why the Nephilim could similarly not be redeemed. If one imagines the global chaos of such a pandemic, the concept of how the Antichrist causes all both small and great to receive this mark becomes clearer. When looking into the eyes of dying children, parents, or a spouse, it would be incredibly difficult to allow oneself to die or to encourage others to do the same. Lastly, this scenario would mean that nobody is allowed to buy or sell in the marketplace without the mark-cure due to the need to quarantine all but the inoculated, thus fulfilling all aspects of the Mark of the Beast prophecy. To find if the science behind this abstract would be as reasonable as it appeared on the surface, I contacted Sharon Gilbert. This was her troubling response: Tom, what is human? Until recently, most of us would readily respond that we are humans. You and I, we might argue, are homo sapiens: erect, bipedal hominids with 23 pairs of matched chromosomes and nifty little thumbs capable of apposition to the palm that enablehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 121 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMus to grasp the fine tools that our highly developed, bi-lobed brains devise. Humans, we might argue, sit as rulers of the Earth, gazing down from the pinnacle of a pyramid consisting of all plant and animal species. We would remind the listener that natural selection and evolution have developed mankind into a superior thinker and doer, thereby granting us royal privilege, if not infinite responsibility. The Bible would take this definition much further, of course, adding that mankind is the only part of Gods creation formed by His hands, rather than spoken into existence, and thatPage 107you and I bear Gods unique signature as having been created in His image. (Genesis 1:27) Many members of the illuminated brotherhood of science would likely demur to the previous statement. These have, in point of fact, redefined human. Like Shelleys Modern Prometheus, Victor Frankenstein, todays molecular magicians play god not by stitching together rotting corpses, but by reforming the very essence of our beings: our DNA. So-called Postmodern Man began as a literary reference but has evolved into an iconicmetaphor representing a collective image of perfected humanity beyond the confines of genetic constraints. Transhumanism, also known as the H+ movement (see www.hplusmagazine.com for example) envisions a higher lifeform yet, surpassing homo sapiens in favor of homo sapiens 2.0, a bioengineered construct that fuses mans original genome with animal and/or synthetic DNA. While such claims ring of science fiction, they are indeed science fact. For decades, laboratories have created chimeric combinations of animal, plant, and even human DNA under the guise of medical research. The stated goal is to better mans lot by curing disease, but this benign mask hides an inner, sardonic grin that follows an ancient blueprint to blend Gods perfect creature with the seed of fallen angels: You shall be as gods. You and Nita speak to the heart of the matter when you warn of a day when true humans may unknowingly receive transhuman instructions via an implant or injection. A seemingly innocuous vaccine or identification chip can initiate intracellular changes, not only in somatic or body cells but also in germline cells such as ova and sperm. The former alters the recipient only; the latter alters the recipients doomed descendents as well. In my second novel, The Armageddon Strain, I present a device called the BioStrain Chip that employs nanotechnology to induce genetic changes inside the carriers body. This miracle chip is advertised as a cure for the H5N1/ebola chimera that is released in thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 122 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPrologue to the book. Of course, if youve read the novel, then you know the BioStrain chip does far more than cureit also kills. Though a work of fiction, The Armageddon Strain raises a chilling question: what limitations lie within the payload of a biochip? Can such a tiny device do more than carry digitized information? Could it actually serve as the Mark of the Beast? The answer is yes. DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) has become the darling of researchers who specialize in synthetic constructs. The sticky end design of the DNA double-helix makes it ideal for use in computing. Though an infinite number of polyhedra are possible, the most robust and stable of these building blocks is called the double crossover (DX). An intriguing name, is it not? The double-cross.Page 108Picture an injectible chip comprised of DNA-DX, containing instructions for a supersoldier. Picture, too, how this DNA framework, if transcribed, might also serve a second, sinister purposenot only to instruct, but also to alter. Mankind has come perilously far in his search for perfection through chemistry. Although millennia passed with little progress beyond roots, herbs, and alchemical quests for gold from lead, the 20th century ushered science into the rosy dawn of breathless discovery. Electricity, lighter than air travel, wireless communication, and computing transformed the ponderous pace of the scientific method into a light speed race toward self-destruction. By the mid-1950s, Watson and Crick had solved the structure of the DNA molecule and the double helix became all the rage. Early gene splicing, and thus transgenics, began in 1952 as a crude, cut and paste sort of science cooked up in kitchen blenders and petri dishesas much accident as inspiration. As knowledge has increased (Daniel 12:4), genetic scientists learned to utilize microbiological vectors and sophisticated methods to insert animal or plant genes from one specie into another. Its the ultimate Mr. Potato Head game, where interchangeable plastic pieces give rise to an infinite number of combinations; only, in genetic splicing, humanity is the unhappy potato. Vectors provide the means of transport and integration for this brave new science. Think of these vectors as biological trucks that carry genetic building materials and workers into your bodys cells. Such trucks could be a microsyringe, a bacterium, or a virion (a virus particle). Any entity that can carry genetic information (the larger the load capacity, the better) and then surreptitiously gain entry into the cell as a potential vector. Viruses, forhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 123 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMexample, can be stripped of certain innate genes that might harm the cell. Not only does this (supposedly) render the viral delivery truck harmless, it also clears out space for the cargo. Once inside the cell, the workers take over. Some of these workers are enzymes that cut human genes at specific sites while others integrateor loadthe cargo into appropriate reading frameslike microscopic librarians. Once the payload is stored in the cells nuclear library stacks, the new genes can be translated, copied, and read to produce altered or brand new, alien polymers and proteins. The resulting hybrid cell is no longer purely human. If a hybridized skin cell, it may now glow, or perhaps form scales rather than hair; claws rather than fingernails. If a brain cell, the new genetic instructions could produce an altered neurotransmitter that reduces or even eliminates the bodys need for sleep. Muscle cells may grow larger and more efficient at using low levels of calcium and oxygen. Retina cells may encode for receptors that enable the posthuman being to perceive infrared or ultraviolet light frequencies. The hybrid ears may now sense a wider range of sounds, taste buds a greater range of chemicals. Altered brains might even attune to metaphysics and unseen gateways, allowing communication with supernatural realms. Germline alterations, mentioned earlier, form a terrifying picture of generational development and may very well already be a reality. Genetic enhancement of sperm-Page 109producing cells would change human sperm into tiny infiltrators, and any fertilized ovum a living chimera. Science routinely conducts experiments with transgenic mice, rats, chickens, pigs, cows, horses, and many other species. It is nave to believe humans have been left out of this transgenic equation. You and I constantly battle mutagenic assaults from external and internal pressures. Externally, our cells endure daily bombardment by pollution, waveform radiation, and chemicals that can alter the molecular structure of nucleotides (guanine, cytosine, thymine, adenine). Internally, our systems work overtime to filter genetically altered food, impure water, and pharmaceuticals. Our bodies are changing. To paraphrase Shakespeare, humanity alters when it alteration finds. (Sonnet 116) If so many scientists (funded by government entities) believe in the promise of genetic alteration and transgenic enhancement, how then can humanity remain human? We cannot. We will not. Perhaps, some have not. Spiritually, the enemy has ever sought to corrupt Gods plan. Originally, fallen angels lay with human women to corrupt the original base pair arrangements. Our genome is filledhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 124 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMwith junk DNA that seemingly encodes for nothing. These introns may be the remains of the corrupted genes, and God Himself may have switched them off when fallen angels continued their program, post-flood. If so, todays scientists might need only to switch them back on to resurrect old forms such as Gibborim and Nephilim. I should point out that not all trucks (vectors) deliver their payload immediately. Some operate on a time delay. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common infective agent resident in the cells of many humans today. It sleeps in our systems, waiting for a window of opportunity to strike. Recently, genetic specialists began utilizing CMV vectors in transgenic experiments. In 1997, the Fox television program Millennium featured an episode in the second season called Sense and Antisense (referring to the two sides of the DNA molecule). In this chilling story, a scientist named Lacuna reveals a genetic truth to Frank Black: They have the map, the map, they can make us go down any street they want to! Streets that we would never even dream of going down. They flip a switch, we go east. They flip another switch, we go north. And we never know we have been flipped, let alone know how. [3] In the final days of this current age, humanity may indeed flip. Paul tells us that Christians will be transformed in a moment (I Cor. 15:51-53). Is it possible that the enemy also plans an instantaneous flip? Are genetic sleeper agents (idling trucks) already at work in humanitys DNA, waiting and ready to deploy at the appropriate moment? Science is ready. Knowledge has been increased. The spiritual players have taken the stage. All we need is the signal. The sign. The injection. The mark. The moment.Page 110We shall ALL be changed. Some to incorruptible bodies ready to meet the Lord. Others to corrupted genomes ready to serve the Beast.Chapter 11When Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod, Son of Lucifer, Shall Comehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 125 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMSeek ye where the broken twig lies and the dead stick molds away, where the clouds float together and the stones rest by the hillside, for all these mark the grave of Hiram [Osiris] who has carried my Will with him to the tomb.

Amen.Manly P. Hall, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry, Prologue Recently on a business trip to Washington DC, I and one of my colleagues met with two current members of the Scottish Rite Freemasonry (whose names I will not reveal), who have unrestricted access to all but the most secret and highest guarded documents of the Order. I joined one of them at The House of the Temple, the headquarters building of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction, where the Rites Supreme Council, 33rd Degree, have their meetings, and the other at the George Washington Masonic Memorial in Alexandria, Virginia. While both men were very helpful and informative, they were evasive whenever I probed too deeply into certain areas. I suppose this is not surprising, given that Masons are sworn to secrecy under blood oaths of horrific repercussion, including having their throats slit, eyeballs pierced, tongues torn out, feet flayed, bodies hacked into pieces, and so on if they give up the wrong information. Perhaps this is why at one point, one of the men I conferred with became visibly nervous as soon as I started asking specific questions about Masonic religious practices, which would include secret rituals that are performed in the Temple Room on the third floor at the House of the Temple, and the hidden meaning behind the name of their deitythe Great Architect of the Universe. What most in the public do not understand is that, in spite of denial by some Masons, theirs is a religious institution with rituals and specific prophetic beliefs concerning a human-transforming final world order, founded on and maintained by dozens of doctrines that can be defined by what Masonrys greatest philosopher, Manly P. Hall, in The Lost Keys of Freemasonry called the principles of mysticism and the occult rites. The reason lower-degree Masons would deny this is because the Masters of the Craft intentionally mislead them. Speaking of the first three degrees of Freemasonry, Albert Pike admitted in Morals & Dogma: The Blue Degrees are but the outer court or portico of the Temple. Part of the symbols arePage 111displayed there to the initiate, but he is intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall understand them; but it is intended that he shall imagine he understands them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the Princes of Masonry. It is well enough for the mass of those called Masons to imagine that all is contained in the Blue Degrees; and whoso attempts to undeceive them will labor in vain, and without any true reward violate his obligations as an Adept.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 126 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMAt these lower degrees, most members of Freemasonry belong to what is maintained as a fraternal organization that simply requires belief in a Supreme Being while avoiding discussion of politics and religion in the lodge, using metaphors of stonemasons building Solomons temple to convey what they publicly describe as a system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols. Ive known several of these type Masons, all of whom were sincere members of society who worked together in a brotherhood for common benefit and to pool resources for charitable goals. None of these lower-degree Masons with whom I have been acquainted would ever, insofar as I know, participate in a conspiracy toward a global world order in which people will be politically and spiritually enslaved. But as one former Freemason friend (a US attorney known to many) told me, This is the veneer of the lower degrees that exists on the Orders public face. What is happening with at least some of the members at the 33rd level, or among the York Rite Knights Templar and the Shriners, is another matter altogether. When I was part of the brotherhood, he continued, I watched as specific members with the correct disposition and ideology were identified, separated, groomed, and initiated into the higher degrees for reasons you would find corresponding with the goals of a New World Order. Famous Freemason Foster Bailey once described how the Masons not included among this elite are unaware of an Illuminati presence among Master Masons, who in turn are the guardians of a secret Plan: Little as it may be realised by the unthinking Mason who is interested only in the outer aspects of the Craft work, the whole fabric of Masonry may be regarded as an externalisation of that inner spiritual group whose members, down the ages, have been the Custodians of the Plan. These Master Masons, to whom TGAOTU [The Great Architect of the Universe] has given the design and Who are familiar with the tracing board of the G.M. [Grand Master] on high, aresometimes known as the Illuminati and can direct the searchlight of truth wherever its beams are needed to guide the pilgrim on his way. They are the Rishis of the oriental philosophy, the Builders of the occult tradition. Part of the carefully guarded Illuminati Plan Bailey referred to involves the need for each Mason to navigate the meaning behind the various rituals in order to discover the secret doctrine of Masonry involving the true identity of deity and what this means now and for the future (which is unveiled for the first time publicly in my upcoming book as reflected in the true Lost Symbol and the prophecy of the Great Seal of the United States). Manly Hall, who rightly called the Great Seal the signature of that exalted body of Masons who designed America for a peculiar and particular purpose, described these two kinds of Masons as members of a fraternity within a fraternity, the elect of which are dedicated to a mysterious arcanum arcandrum (a sacred secret) unknown to the rest of the Order: Freemasonry is a fraternity within a fraternityan outer organization concealing an innerPage 112http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 127 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMbrotherhood of the elect. it is necessary to establish the existence of these two separate yet independent orders, the one visible and the other invisible. The visible society is a splendid camaraderie of free and accepted men enjoined to devote themselves to ethical, educational, fraternal, patriotic, and humanitarian concerns. The invisible society is a secret and most august fraternity whose members are dedicated to the service of a mysterious arcanum arcandrum. Those brethren who have essayed to write the history of their craft have not included in their disquisitions the story of that truly secret inner society which is to the body Freemasonic what the heart is to the body human. In each generation only a few are accepted into the inner sanctuary of the workthe great initiatephilosophers of Freemasonry aremasters of that secret doctrine which forms the invisible foundation of every great theological and rational institution. Among dedicatories to those who support this invisible secret doctrine, there is a memorial alcove in the heart of the House of the Temple called the Pillars of Charity. Here, between two vaults on either sideone containing the exhumed remains of former Sovereign Grand Commander Albert Pike and the other containing Sovereign Grand Commander John Henry Cowles, marked by busts of each man on marble pedestalsa stained-glass window depicts the all-seeing eye above the words Fiat Lux emitting thirty-three beams of light downward onto the phrase ordo ab chao from ancient craft Masonic doctrine, order out of chaos.In between meetings with the anonymous Masons who met with me during research for this book, I stepped into this shrine and read the names of those who are hallowed there on reflective golden inscriptions for contributing at least one million dollars to advance the cause of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, including the George Bush family, whose work to initiate the New World Order is universally understood. At the House of the Temple, like elsewhere, The Brotherhood of Darkness (as my friend Dr. Stanley Monteith calls it) intentionally hides in plain sight the occult aspirations of universalism, which ultimately will be conceived in a one-world order and one-world religion under the son of LuciferApollo/Osiris/Nimrodor, as Manly Hall put it:http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 128 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMThe outcome of the secret destiny is a World Order ruled by a King with supernaturalPage 113powers. This King was descended of a divine race; that is, he belonged to the Order of the Illumined for those who come to a state of wisdom then belong to a family of heroesperfected human beings. When Hall offered this astonishingly perceptive commentary about the future Masonic King who is descended of a divine race of Illumined (Luciferic) heroes-perfected (half-man, half-god) human beings, he nailed exactly what the Watchers had done, and what the Cumaean Sibyls Great Seal prophecy says will occur concerning the coming of Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod. In this book it is revealed for the first time how all this is fantastically encodedusing ancient alchemical symbolism on the grandest scale inside as well as right out in the openin the midst of the worlds most powerful nation and at the worlds most powerful church, where the true Lost Symbol is written in stone. Forget what Dan Browns new book says, we are talking the greatest conspiracy of all time winding down toward the year 2012. Have the keepers of this secret destiny of America also hidden in public view the timing of their kings arrival? They did, and the entire prophecywho, what, when, and whereis openly ciphered within several Masonic artifacts: the national cipher known as the Great Seal of the United States, in the Womb of Isis, and in the key known as The Lost Symbol. The means to understanding when the novus ordo seclorum shall enthrone its Apollonian leader may have also been known by Hall, as he correctly noted that the unfinished pyramid upon the seals reverse side is the trestleboard setting forth symbolically the task to the accomplishment of which the United States Government was dedicated from the day of its inception. Previously we summarized Halls comments about the mass of occult and Masonic symbols on the Great Seal, which he believed only students of archaic or esoteric symbolism would be able to accurately decipher. This included the obverse side of the Great Seal, where a bald eagle, which he illustrated was a shrewd mythical phoenix so important to Masonic mysticism, clutches a bundle of arrows in its left talon, while its right claw grips an olive branch. But, Hall then went on to say: If this design on the obverse side of the seal is stamped with the signature of the Order of the Quest, the design on the reverse is even more definitely related to the old Mysteries. Here is represented the great pyramid of Gizah, composed of thirteen rows of masonry, showing seventy-two stones. The pyramid is without a cap stone, and above its upper platform floats a triangle containing the all-seeing eye surrounded by rays of light. The combination of the phoenix, the pyramid, and the all-seeing eye is more than chance or coincidence. There is only one possible origin for these symbols, and that is the secret societies which came to this country 150 years before the Revolutionary War. There can be no question that the great seal was directly inspired by these orders of the human Quest,http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 129 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMand that it set forth the purpose for this nation as that purpose was seen and known to the Founding Fathers.Page 114As Manly Hall did, thirty-third vice president of the United States and 32nd-Degree Mason Henry Wallace also viewed the unfinished pyramid with the all-seeing eye hovering above it on the Great Seal as central to the prophecy of a New World Order. Whenever the United States assumed its position as the capital of the world, he believed, the Grand Architect would return and metaphorically the all-seeing eye would be fitted atop the pyramid as the finished apex stone. But Whose All-Seeing Eye Is This, Anyway? While different versions of the eye of providence or all-seeing eye have appeared throughout time within various cultures, the origin of each can usually be understood within the context of its adjoined symbolism. In the case of the all-seeing eye on the Great Seal of the United States, the connection to the uncapped Egyptian pyramid and to the Osiris-Apollo-related mottoes positively determines the culture to which this specific eye refers, and the solar deity represented by it Osiris/Horus/Apollo/Nimrod. This is further illustrated by the numerological values of the arcane mottoes, which were carefully chosen for the Great Seal due to their connection to the pagan deity. So important was it that the Masonic numbers three (3) and thirteen (13) be reinforced with the multi-named god (the numbers three and thirteen are historically connected with the deities Apollo, Osiris, and Nimrod, and this is why, for instance, the American space mission Apollo 13 was named after the deity and had this number), that not only was the original amount of American states intentionally set at thirteen, but Freemason David Ovason, whom Robert Hieronimus (considered one of the the worlds foremost authorities on the Great Seal) calls exceptionally well referenced, confirms how a letter was cut from the Latin word saeclorum (the usual spelling) in order to create the word seclorum to contribute to three sets of thirteen on the reverse side of the Great Seal. After acknowledging that the top motto, annuit coeptis, had the obligatory thirteen letters, Ovason pointed out how saeclorum was letter-cut to join the bottom motto, novus ordo seclorum, so that the phrase would end up being seventeen letters, which when added to the nine numerals in the Roman date would equal a total of twenty-six, or two sets of the number thirteen. Combined with the tophttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 130 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMmotto, these three sets of thirteen were very important to establish, Ovason says, in order to reflect the trinity represented in the Great Seal Eye of Providence, and in the nominal triangle from which the pyramid is constructed. Based purely on the Great Seals symbolism, the trinity these three sets of the number thirteen denote is authoritatively identified as Osiris, Horus, and Isis, the pagan versions of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, respectively. The use of the number thirteen in this way also connects the Great Seal to the mythological and astrological significance of the legend of Osiris as the dying and rising god. It was evidently so important to maintain this talisman-like value, thirteen, that other phases of the design and layout of Washington DC were coordinated accordingly, says Ovason. This includes the laying of the White House cornerstone on October 13, 1792, by Masons, and the Fourth of July signing of the Declaration of Independence thirteen days after summer solstice, so that the sun would be on Sirius. In Egyptian mythology, the sun represented Osiris while the star Sirius symbolized Isis, and thirteen was the number of pieces of Osiris that Isis was able to find after Seth, his evil brother, murdered and threw fourteen pieces of him into the Nile. Isis searched the riverbank until she recovered every piece,Page 115except for his genitals, which had been swallowed by a fish. Isis replaced the missing organ with an obelisk and magically impregnated herself with Horus. Therefore, in Masonic as well as in ancient Egyptian mythology, the number thirteenused a total of thirteen times on the Great Seal, counting front and backis the number that represents the return or resurrection of Osiris. This mythology was so meaningful to the founding of the United States and the construction of its capitalincluding having the missing Osiris genitalia represented by the 6,666-inches-high Egyptian obelisk known as the Washington Monumentthat nearly all of David Ovasons five hundred-plus-page Secret Architecture of Our Nations Capital is dedicated to establishing the singular correlation between Washington DC and Virgo, the constellation of Isis, or what Ovason calls, Isis, who was the chief of the feminine mystery deities and the prototype of the steller Virgo. This affiliation existed from the very day Freemasons gathered on April 15, 1791, beginning appropriately at 3:30 PM (reflecting the mystical value, thirty-three) because of the astrological position of Jupiter and Virgo, and what this would mean for the secret destiny of America: At exactly 3:30 PM, Jupiterbegan to rise over the horizon. It was in 23 degrees of Virgo. By this means, the zodiacal power of Virgo, which was called in later Masonic circles the Beautiful Virgin, was able to stamp her benign influence on the building of the federal city. A few of the many Freemasons present at this ceremony would have been only to well aware of the profound implications of what they were doing. It is quite clearhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 131 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthat the ceremonial placing of the stone related to more than merely the founding of the federal district: it was somehow linked to the future destiny of America itself. By dedicating the United States through its astrological alignment to the constellation of Isis, the founders had dedicated the destiny of America to fulfilling the secret doctrine of Freemasonry, as also reflected in the Osiris/Apollo symbolism of the Great Seal, concerning subserviencenow and upon his return as Antichristto Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod. Interestingly, the same dedication to Osiris/Isis/Apollo exists in New York where the events of September 11, 2001, initiated the push toward the novus ordo seclorum. The Statue of Liberty in New Yorks Harbor, which holds the Masonic Torch of Enlightenment, was presented in 1884 as a gift to American Masons by the French Grand Orient Temple Masons. Designed by French Freemason and sculptor Frdric Auguste Bartholdi and built by another French Freemason, Gustave Eiffel, the statue was originally identified as the goddess Isis with the statues head formed to represent the Greek Sun-god Apolloas preserved on an ancient marble tablet (today in the Archaeological Museum of Corinth, Corinth, Greece)Apollo was represented as a solar deity, dressed in a similar robe and having on its head a radiate crown with the seven spiked rays of the Helios-Apollos sun rays.Page 116The legend of Osiris and Isis, the connection with Apollo, the magical number thirteen, and the history surrounding their mythos is often openly discussed in Masonic and brotherhood-friendly literature. For instance in Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike enumerated the esoteric significance of the Osiris epic at length, adding that lower-level Masons (Blue Masonry) are ignorant of its true meaning, which is only known to those who are initiated into the Mysteries. Pike also spoke of the star Sirius connected to Isis and at length to Lucifer/Satanas still glittering in the Masonic lodges as the Blazing Star. Elsewhere in Morals and Dogma, Pike reiterated that the All-Seeing Eyewas the emblem of Osiris and that the Sun was termed by the Greeks the Eye of Jupiter, and the Eye of the World; and his is the All-Seeing Eye in our Lodges. Once people understand this illuminated Masonic connection to the trinity on Americas Great Seal, and what the prophetic symbolism, mottoes, and numerology imply, it becomes apparent why so much effort was put forward for so long by those who felt it was necessary to hide this extraordinary destiny. Ovason acknowledges this conspiracy of silence as well: The motto at the top of the seal, Annuit Coeptis, is from Virgilfrom the Aeneid. This is a prayer to the god Jupiter. We should observe that while the subject matter of the reversehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 132 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMof the seal is undoubtedly paganif symbolic of hermetic Egyptthe superior motto is itself a prayer to a pagan god. Could this be the reason why there has been so much reluctance to bring the reverse of the seal into the light of day? Whatever the nature of the god, the prayer directed in this way is a petition that the daring undertaking [the secret destiny of America as symbolized in finishing the pyramid] may be completed, and that the new age will find fulfillment. Ovason, a Mason whose research earned praise from Fred Kleinknecht, Sovereign Grand Commander of the 33rd-Degree Supreme Council of Freemasons in Washington DC, is to be thanked for inadvertently revealing what the Illuminatus has secretly known for agesthat the Great Seal of the United States is a pagan prophecy and petition to a pagan god (the same entity the Bible identifies by name as the end-times Antichrist) to assist in the conclusion of the great work by his return. When we have grasped the importance of these New Age expectations, Ovason concludes, we shall be in a better position to understand why the design for this reverse [side of the Great Seal] has remained so consistently hidden. The Unfinished Pyramid Beneath the All-Seeing Eye Where the numerology and astrological signs related to the all-seeing eye add to why certain symbolism on the Great Seal was important to Freemasons, it is the unfinished pyramid upon the seals reverse side that Manly Hall called the trestleboard that set forth symbolically the task to the accomplishment of which the United States Government was dedicated from the day of its inception. This language, drawn directly from how trestleboards are used and what they represent in both operative and speculative Masonry, is revealing, as the trestleboard is the board upon which the Master Mason draws out the diagrams and geometric figures that are to be used as a blueprint for directing the workers in the construction of the task. In speculative Masonry, the trestleboard also takes on spiritual meaning, which reflects lessons from the Books of Nature and the will of the GreatPage 117Architect of the Universe. In Masonic rituals, this means a spiritual plan has been put in place and that it is to be carried out on an individual, family, social, national, and international level. The plan includes the timing as to when the project should officially start, as well as generally when it is to be concluded. Thus, if the pyramid on the Great Seal is the trestleboard laying out the task of which the United States Government was dedicated from the day of its inception, it is the drawing board for the destiny of America and is branded by 1) the identity of the Great Architect to whom the work is dedicated; and 2) the date on which the work was started and is to be completed. Concerning the first subject matterthe identity of the Great Architectwe have illustrated numerous times how the symbols and mottoes speak for themselves in communicating who this deity is. In the prologue of his book, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry, Manly Hall joins in this revelation byhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 133 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMrecounting the familiar story of Hiram Abiff, the Tyrian First Grand Master of the order of Masons and the chief builder who sets out to construct the temple of the Great Architect of the Universe, but is killed by three spectres. This story, impersonated every time an initiate reaches the level of Master Mason, is by admission of Freemasons a retelling of the death-epic of the god Osiris. In Lost Keys, Hall narrates how the Great Architect gives Hiram (Osiris) the trestleboard for the construction of the great temple, and when he is killed by three ruffians, the Great Architect bathes him in a glory celestial, as in the glory surrounding the all-seeing eye of Osisis above the pyramid on the Great Seal. The Great Architect follows this by charging those who would finish the building with the task of finding the body of Hiram (Osiris) and raising him from the dead. When this has been accomplished, the great work will conclude and the god will inhabit the temple: Seek ye where the broken twig lies and the dead stick molds away, where the clouds float together and the stones rest by the hillside, for all these mark the grave of Hiram [Osiris] who has carried my Will with him to the tomb. This eternal quest is yours until ye have found your Builder, until the cup giveth up its secret, until the grave giveth up its ghosts. No more shall I speak until ye have found and raised my beloeved Son [Osiris], and have listened to the words of my Messenger and with Him as your guide have finished the temple which I shall then inhabit. Amen. So once again we are brought back to the Great Pyramid of Giza, writes Peter Goodgame, the first built and last remaining of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, which is the reputed resting place of Osiris. The Great Pyramid itself is but one structure within a major Necropolis that was designed according to the layout of the constellation Orion, the Great Hunter in the sky [Osiris/Gilgamesh/Nimrod]. As we have endeavored to show, Osiris is none other than the Biblical Nimrod, the mighty hunter before the Lord. The Encyclopedia of Freemasonry identifies the character Nimrod with this legend of the Brotherhood as well, in the Old Constitutions, where it distinguishes him as a founder of Masonry. Thus in the York MS., No. 1, we read: At ye making of ye toure of Babell there was a Masonrie first much esteemed of, and the King of Babilon yt called Nimrod was a Mason himself and loved well Masons. Other authorities not only connect the Masonic founder Hiram Abiff with Osiris and Nimrod, but explain that Nimrod plus the building of the Tower of Babelnot the temple of Solomonwas thePage 118true origin of Masonic cosmology. In Symbols of Freemasonry, translated from the French Les Symboles des Francs-Macons, Daniel Beresniak notes: The date of the construction of King Solomons temple has not always been the key date inhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 134 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMthe Freemasons cosmology. This central role was once given to the Tower of Babel. The Regius manuscript, which predates Cooke [1410] by twenty years, cites King Nemrod, the builder of that famous tower, as the first and most excellent master. He it was, and not King Solomon, who gave the Masons their first charge, their rules of conduct and professional code. A Masonic text known as the Thistle manuscript, of 1756, says that Nemrod created the Masons and gave them their signs and terms so that they could distinguish themselves from other peopleit was the first time that the Masons were organised as a craft. Thus the appearance of the uncapped pyramid of Giza on the Great Seal of the United States echoes the ancient pagan as well as Masonic beliefs concerning the old mysteries, and the prophecy of the return of Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod. In Rosicrucian and Masonic Origins, Manly Hall, who had said in The Secret Teachings of All Ages that the Great Pyramid was the tomb of Osiris, explains that Preston, Gould, Mackey, Oliver, Pike, and nearly every other great historian of Freemasonry were aware of this connection between Freemasonry and the ancient mysteries and primitive ceremonials based on Osiris. These eminent Masonic scholars have all recognized in the legend of Hiram Abiff an adaptation of the Osiris myth; nor do they deny that the major part of the symbolism of the craft is derived from the pagan institutions of antiquity when the gods were venerated in secret places with strange figures and appropriate rituals. But whereas Freemasons like Manly Hall considered the symbolism and myth related to the pyramid on the Great Seal and the history of Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod to be the working trestleboard laying out the secret destiny of America, New Age esotericists like Robert Hieronimusone of the worlds foremost authorities on the reverse of the seals symbolismview the circular design and symbolism on the Great Seal to be an initiatory mandala. Mandalas, from the Hindu term for circle, are concentric diagrams, such as is familiar in Tantrism, Buddhism, and Hinduism, having ritual and spiritual use for focusing or trance- inducing aspirants and adepts who seek mystical oneness with the cosmos or deeper levels of the unconscious mind. Related to the design of the Great Seal, Hieronimus, as an occultist, views the geometric patterns as representing a type of mandala or microcosm embodying the cosmic or metaphysical divine powers at work in the secret destiny of America, including the god or universal forces represented in the diagram that herald a coming new age of gods and demigods. Occultists often use mandalas based on the concept of a protective circle or variation, which they believe allow certain doorways into the supernatural to be opened or closed, and entities compelled accordingly, as in the magical five-pointed pentagram circle. This is similar to an initiatory mandala used in Hindu and Buddhist Tantrism, in which deities are represented by specific locations in thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 135 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 119diagram. In Yoga: Immortality and Freedom, scholar Mircea Eliade explains the importance of this part of the mandala design: At the periphery of the construction there are four cardinal doors, defended by terrifying images called guardians of the doors. Their role is twofold. On the one hand, the guardians defend consciousness from the disintegrating forces of the unconscious; on the other, they have an offensive missionin order to lay hold upon the fluid and mysterious world of the unconscious, consciousness must carry the struggle into the enemys camp and hence assume the violent and terrible aspect appropriate to the forces to be combated. Indeed, even the divinities inside the mandala sometimes have a terrifying appearance; they are the gods whom man will encounter after death, in the state of bardo. The guardians of the doors and the terrible divinities emphasize the initiatory character of entrance into a mandala. The typical initiatory ordeal is the struggle with a monsterboth spiritual (against evil spirits and demons, forces of chaos) and material (against enemies)who [attempt] to return forms to the amorphous state from which they originated. What makes this interesting is that the arcane symbols and mottoes of the Great Seal representas admitted by Masonrys greatest historians, mystics, and philosophersgods that were known in ancient times alternatively as saviors or demons, creators, and destroyers; spirits that seek entry into the conscious and unconscious world. That such concepts would be related to the uncapped pyramid on the seal is fitting in that the Great Pyramid of Giza is not only thought of as the actual tomb-site of the deity, but as a symbol of Christ by some and of the Antichrist by others. These paradoxical conclusions arrive because of certain mysterious attributes related to the Great Pyramid. In his wonderful book, The Great Pyramid: Prophecy in Stone, Dr. Noah Hutchings is able to show that the Great Pyramid, unlike the other inferior ones on the Giza Plateau whose walls are covered with Egyptian symbols, is devoid of such idolatrous symbolism and defies to this day what methods were employed to manufacture its unparalleled creation. Just how matchless is the Great Pyramid? Hutchings starts out by showing that it is: A building so large that all the locomotives in the world today could not pull its weight. A building so large that it could hold the cathedrals of Rome, Florence, and Milan and still have room for the Empire State Building, Westminster Abbey, St. Pauls Cathedral, and both houses of the British Parliament. A building made up of two and one-half million blocks of stone ranging from three to sixty tons each. A building that has not settled, has not shifted, has not budged even one-tenth of an inch in thousands of yearsa feat that even modern engineering could not equal. Ive had the privilege of being on the Southwest Radio Ministries broadcast with Dr. Hutchings, and have told him on the air how the first edition of his book, Prophecy in Stone (in the 1970s), was anhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 136 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMeye-opener for me. I was not aware back then of the intriguing tidbits of information concerning the Great Pyramid that seemed to parallel biblical prophecyfor instance, how some ancient writersPage 120referred to the Great Pyramid as the Pillar of Enoch. This was engaging to me because the so-called Kings Chamber in the Great Pyramid was found to have never been occupied, and Enoch was not, for God took him (Genesis 5:24). When the empty coffer in the Kings Chamber was measured, it was discovered that the interior dimensions are the same as the biblical Ark of the Covenant. Besides this, 144,000 polished limestone blocks originally covered the exterior of the Great Pyramid, which were sealed with an adhesive so strong that they would break anywhere but at the seal. This is the same number of the saints who, in the book of Revelation 7:38, are sealed with the seal of God. Yet of all such fascinating findings Dr. Hutchings describes in The Great Pyramid: Prophecy In Stone, the sections in his book I found most interesting focus on the missing head cornerstone (apex stone, capstone) of the Great Pyramid, and the curious verses in Psalms 118:22 and Acts 4:11 pertaining to Jesus as the stone the builders rejected and that has become the head cornerstone. As Hutchings points out, the only kind of building in all the world that requires a head cornerstone is a pyramid. Because of this, Hutchings believes the pillar that Isaiah (Isaiah 19:1920) said would stand as a sign and for a witness unto the Lord in the end times may be the Great Pyramid on the old border that separated lower and upper Egypt. Conversely, a few years ago, another friend of mine named Patrick (Paddy) Heron wrote a book entitled Pyramid of the Apocalypse, in which he postulated that the Great Pyramid at Giza had been built by the nephilim, the offspring of Watchers. Besides associated legends, part of his reasoning had to do with the scale of the massive undertaking and the same biblical parallelsthe one hundred forty-four thousand, the missing capstone, etc.which Heron viewed as the Watchers trying to copy, plagiarize, mimic, or borrow from the fame of something known only to the angels, namely, the design of the New Jerusalem in heaven, whose height and width are the same, as in a pyramidal structure (as opposed to those who believe the New Jerusalem will be cube-shaped). Heron and researchers like him further warn that an antichrist who is somehow related to the Great Pyramidas a resurrected Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod would be, though we could only offer at this point fantastic speculation how this deity, returned to flesh, would be outrightly connected to the Great Pyramid could use these mysterious attributes of the Great Pyramid, which seem related to biblical prophecy, as a great deception to guide people away from the true Messiah. This theological premise is interesting, as everything about the coming of the False Christ will be an antithetical mirror of Jesus. For example, Jesus has seven stars in His right hand (Revelation 1:20), while the Antichrist Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod is represented by the seven-star Pleiades system. The Great Pyramid capstone is missing, representing temporary vacancy by Apollo according to the mottoes, whose coming will cap the pyramid, and yet as we have seen, Jesus is also called the head cornerstone.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 137 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMWhoever turns out to be correct in the debate above, the design of the Great Seal of the United States makes it clear which side of the discussion Americas national cipher points to. There are no biblical verses on the Great Seal heralding the second coming of Jesus Christ. And, unlike the actual Great Pyramid in Giza, whose walls are devoid of idolatrous symbols, the Great Seal is made up entirely of mottoes and prayers to the pagan father of the deity Apollo, to fulfill the Cumaean Sibyls prophecy and to return to earthly rule the disembodied spirit of the deceased god Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod. Is this what is meant in Psalms 118 and Acts chapter 4 where Jesus is the capstone the builders refused? Was He rejected as the Messiah by the buildersa literal reference to Masonsbecause another is coming that will cap their pyramid? A second messiah?Page 121Trestleboard Dates: The Start and Finish of the Great Work We have seen over and over that the seals symbolism leaves no doubts as to the identity of the deity behind the all-seeing eye, or to the prophecy from the mottoes regarding the return of the deity known at various times in history as Apollo, Osiris, and Nimrod. This leaves the second issue that needs to be resolved from the Great Seals trestleboard as to the timing of the work: when it was started and when it is scheduled to be completed. One key to the starting date of this mystical work is magnificently ciphered in the number 888, the sum of the letters in Greek for the name of Jesus (each Greek letter represents a number). This cipher also confirms the prophecies of Psalms 118 and Acts 4 concerning Jesus as the rejected capstone, because this same number888is also found in the riddle of the Sibylline Oracles, ascribed to the Cumaean Sibyl, which J. L. Lightfoot says was hoped by some early Christians to represent Jesus, but was clearly understood by pagans to be a prophecy of the return of Apollo. 888 was Olens number, the founder of Apollos oracle and his first prophet, and signified the spiritual sun represented in the glory surrounding the all-seeing eye of Apollo/Horus on the Great Seal, and the novus ordo seclorum or new age that his coming would herald. Gnostics and mystics among the occult hierarchy maintain this interpretation as the true meaning of the Apollonian Sibyls prophecy. The text in question comes from the Sibylline Oracles: Then will come to men the Son of the Great God, coated flesh, similar to mortals on earth. But I want to tell you the whole [of his] number: eight units [8], so much tens in addition [80], and eight hundreds [800, or 8+80+800=888], here are what to the friends of incredulity, to men, the Name will reveal; but you, in the spirit, thinks well of the immortal and very high Son of God, to the Christ. So here we have two messiahs represented by the number 888Jesus, the Christ of the Bible, and Apollo, the Sibyls messiah of the novus ordo seclorum. What is astonishing about this is that adding the number of these two messiahs together (888+888) equals the year 1776the date chosen for the founding of the United States and reflected in the Roman numerals at the base of the uncappedhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 138 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMpyramid on the Great Seal. Adepts of the mystical order actually go to great lengths to show how this addition of 888+888=1776 is the cardinal number of the great work also known as the eagle of eagles reflected in the well-known Masonic symbol of the two-headed eagle or phoenix, which Masonic dictionaries define as historically representing the merger of two gods (in this instance, Jesus with Apollo). Given everything else we have learned from the works of Freemasons like David Ovason and Manly P. Hall, this date, 1776, representing two messiahsthe rejection of one in favor of the otheris not likely a mistake. Thus, the trestleboards 1776 beginning date for the great work of the Craft truly marked the start in history of the secret doctrine of Freemasonic Illuminatus toward establishing a NewPage 122Atlantis in anticipation of the return of their founder and deity, Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod. To further verify this part of the cipher pointing to an alternative capstone or second messiah, the year 1776 at the base of the pyramid is understood by Masons worldwide to be the year 5776 Anno Lucis (in the year of light). This is because Masons of the ancient Craft add four thousand years to the common date, the number of years that conventional theology assumes creation began before Christ: thus, 4,000+1,776=5,776. Why is this important? Because 5,776 is exactly how many inches high the Great Pyramid in Giza would be when completed with its capstone, a sacred fact to occultists. Completing the pyramid symbolically in this way is central to the rituals and mysticism of Freemasons and numerous Illuminated fraternities. This has been true throughout the ages, and is why this symbolism was encoded on the Great Seal and remains at the core of esoteric ambition today. The year 1776 thus represents 1) the trestleboard date on which the great work and secret destiny began; and 2) is a prophetic marker toward the descent of the eye of Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod upon the uncapped pyramid in accomplishment of the Great Work. Yet if the year 1776 represents the starting date on the trestleboard toward the accomplishment of which the United States Government was dedicated from the day of its inception, as Manly P. Hall said, what date did the Master Masons envision that the work would be finished in order that Hiram Abiff (Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod) could return to inhabit his temple? This is found in the modern Jewish calendar as well as the Scottish Rite Freemasonry, who, unlike their other brethren, prefer adding 3,760 years to the common date. In order for this superior side of Masonry to arrive at the appropriate number for their finished pyramid and the completed work (the height of the pyramid with itshttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 139 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMcapstone reaching upward of 5,776 inches), they have to add the future date, 2016, to the common era, or 3,760+2,016=5,776. This is important for several reasons, not the least of which is that, if the culmination of the Illuminati enterprise is concluded in 2016, it is prophetically related to the infamous future year 2012the end of the Mayan Long Count calendar. The year 2012 could therefore represent in Christian eschatology the beginning of Great Tribulation, with 2016 representing the midst of the week when Apollo (Antichrist) presents himself as God and enters the temple in Jerusalem. Recurrence of 2012 and 2016: What is the Significance of These Dates? As the reader will discover in this book Apollyon Rising 2012, the year-dates 2012 and 2016 appear on dozens of occasions in connection to the Masonic prophecy of the coming of Hiram/Osiris/Apollo. We will reveal how these years are encoded on the Great Seal of the United States and several other important Masonic ciphers, including the true Lost Symbol (this part of the book is going to shock people), the Capitol Dome in Washington DC, and the first degree Masonic trestleboard. But first let me offer several tidbits related to end-times scenarios that some readers may find interesting. I mentioned above how the year 2012, being three and one-half years before the Masonic ending date 2016, could thus be viewed as the beginning of the Tribulation period. However, a more disturbing scenario that some believe could also fit with prophecy is that 2016 instead represents the end, not thePage 123middle, of the Great Tribulation periodwhich would mean the year 2012 would actually be the midst of the week and the reign of Antichrist would have started mid-2009. Though we see no solid evidence of this at this time, scholars believe the first three and one-half years of Antichrists kingdom holds relative calm anyway, even temporarily producing what at first appears to be answers for mankinds greatest needs, and that during this time the Antichrist is not known for who he really is. Ordo ab Chao first creates chaos, then answers to earths problems begin to arrive just as the world is losing hope. Then, in the middle of the week things explode and people understand who they have put into position of unparalleled earthly authority. Using this premise, there are several possible supportive facts for 2009 as the beginning of sorrows, including that the end of the Mayan calendar, December 21, 2012, is three and one-half days before Christmas that year. Consider that the book of Revelation, chapter 11, describes the two witnesses who prophesy for 1,260 days before Apollo kills them and they lie in the street of Jerusalem for three and one-half days. Note what it says happens: And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts onehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 140 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMto another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwell on the earth. And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. (Revelation 11:911) It is possible that the text above is describing the two witnesses being killed during the Christmas season, because people are making merry and sending gifts to one another around the world. As David Flynn emailed me, What other international holiday besides Christmas results in people worldwide exchanging gifts (the lexicons literally say presents) to each other? The description of the two witnesses as candle stands also connects them to Hanukkah, which occurs immediately before Christmas. This strongly suggests the two witnesses are killed sometime near, but before, December 25. This could mean the end of the Mayan calendarDecember 21, 2012is the very day the two witnesses are killed by Apollo, as this Mayan ending-date is three and one-half days before Christmas. This would also indicate that the middle of the Great Tribulation period is December 21, 2012. On the other hand, people who believe in a pretribulation Rapture would point out that the catching away of the saints did not happen in 2009, and therefore the Masonic date 2016 might better represent the midst of the week (see Daniel 9:27; Revelation 1113) when Apollo (Antichrist) presents himself as God and sets up the abomination in the temple in Jerusalem. Under this scenario, the year 2012 would represent the beginning of the Great Tribulation period, three and onehalf years before mid-2016. That the year 2012 marks the beginning of the Great Tribulation not only could fit with Bible prophecy, as it is in the midst of the weekthree and one-half years into the Great Tribulation periodwhen Antichrist enthrones himself as God in the temple, this would also conform well with the Masonic and Great Seal prophecies forecasting the return of the Great Architect and Hiram AbiffPage 124(Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod), who enters the finished temple as god, in this case, mid-2016, which is three and one-half years following 2012. In what could also be a related fact, June 21, 2016, is exactly three and one-half years after the Mayan ending-date of December 21, 2012, and June 21 marks the summer solstice in the Northern Hemisphere and the winter solstice in the Southern Hemisphere when a cusp line is created between Gemini and Cancer, signs that David Ovason referred to as having deep astrological significance to the founding and secret destiny of America. It is also very important to recognize that, based on Daniel chapter 9 and related texts, scholars believe a period of not more than seventy years (a biblical generation) will elapse between thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 141 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMreformation of Israel as a nation and the return of Jesus Christ. When seventy years is added to 1948 the year Israel was formally recognized as an independent nation by the United Nationsit brings us through the year 2018. Does this mean that the year 2019exactly seven years after 2012would mark the year that Jesus Christ returns with the armies of heaven to establish His rule over earth? J. R. Church called me to stipulate: If Christ referred to a seventy-year generation when He said, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled (Matthew 24:34), then he could return at anytime before the seventy years is up. This is not meant to set a date, but to simply speculate on the concept that our Savior addressed. This advice would seem more in line with the first scenario above, that the seven-year period of Tribulation began in 2009, though J. R. personally would certainly not set dates. Interestingly, Islamic scholars also view this time as prophetically important. The author of The Day of Wrath, Safar Ibn `Abd Al-Rahman Al-Hawali, writes at www.IslamicAwakening.com: When Daniel specified the period between its distress and relief, between the era of anguish and the era of blessing, he put it as forty-five years! We have already seen that he specified the time of the establishment of the abomination of desolation as the year 1967, which is what in fact occurred. Therefore, the endor the beginning of the endwill be 1967 + 45 = 2012. The most remarkable connection between these dates is that the Maya themselves recognized a direct link between the number thirteen and the years 1776 and 2012 in cycles and illustrations in a way that academic Richard N. Luxton found to be similar to prophecies of the Christian Last Judgment. He translated and annotated The Book of Chumayel: The Counsel Book of the Yucatec Maya 15391638, and noted on katun 13 Ahau: The dates that accompany the illustrations approximate real counts. Katun 13 Ahau ended in 1539 and began in the Colonial Count in 1776. The traditional theme of agreement as the end of the eastern katun cycle in 13 Ahau is intermingled here with elements of the Christian Last Judgment. Whether this paradigm was also intended for the end of the Long Count in 2012 is open to question. Religious ceremonies and prophecies accompanied Mayan katuns, and Luxtons connection to the Christian Last Judgment and the thirteen katuns (a katun is approximately 19.7 years) between 1776Page 125and 2012 is drawn from the prophecies of the Mayan prophet Chilam Balam. Written down in about the year 1595, the oracular Chilam Balam, or jaguar shaman, said the end of this period would witness the judgment of God in the form of social collapse, epidemics, plagues, and famine. The same period would see the coming of two great prophets, one after the other, according to the Mayan prophecy. Is this the False Prophet paving the way for the Antichrist?http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 142 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMIt is no coincidence that the start and ending dates of the final thirteen katuns of the Mesoamerican Mayan Long Count calendar are reflected in the thirteen steps of the pyramid on the United States Great Seal. That the steps of the pyramid were intended to convey units of time has been an open secret for many years. Though he was not sure what to make of it himself, Paul Foster Case wrote many years ago that: Since the date, 1776, is placed on the bottom course of the pyramid, and since the number thirteen has been so important in the symbolism of the seal, it is not unreasonable to suppose that the thirteen courses of the pyramid may represent thirteen time periods. John Kehne made an even more intriguing observation, directly coupling the Great Seals trestleboard date, 1776, and the Mayan ending date 2012: This Seal shows a thirteen-step pyramid with 1776 in Roman numerals. [The year] 1776 was not only the year that the Declaration of Independence was signed, but was also a special year in the Mayan calendar. Just as the last katun in the Great Cycle is katun 2012, the first katun in the cycle of thirteen was katun 1776. In fact, the katun ended thirty-three days before the signing. So 1776 is the bottom level of the pyramid, where the date is actually inscribedthe top of the pyramid is therefore 2012.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 143 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 126As we shall show, early Freemasons and Americas founding fathers were very much aware of the significance of these dates1776, 2012, and 2016 respectivelyand while the thirteen steps of the unfinished pyramid on the Great Seal account for the timeframe 17762012 using the slightly less than twenty-year periods (19.7) of the katun, the Gregorian twenty-year cycle produces 17762016, both of which fit perfectly within the trestleboard dating on the U.S. Great Seal cipher and the first Masonic tracing board, as we will reveal. First Degree Tracing Board Shows the Way When research began for Apollyon Rising 2012 and I became aware of the nearly five hundred-yearold Mayan prophecies connecting the colonial count 1776 with the final thirteen katuns of their calendar ending in the year 2012 (and how academia viewed this as a mirror of the countdown to the Christian Last Judgment), I wondered if early American scholarsand specifically architects of Freemasonry involved in the design of Washington DC, the Great Seal of the United States, and other iconic artifacts important to the founding of this countrywere aware of this Mesoamerican timeline. It seemed too much of a coincidence that the final thirteen katuns ending in 2012 would match the starting and ending date on the Great Seal by chance. My investigation into the matter resulted in numerous examples of the year 2012 related to America (and other places of the world), which I detail in my book. But due to the nature of this entry, I list here one final finding directly connected with Freemasons and the designers of the capital city in Washington DC that illustrate their knowledge of the ending date 2012. This discovery came as a result of Dr. Robert Lomas of the University of Bradford in the UK openly posting on the schools website an archive on Freemasonry that he had received from the Masons. The reason behind the decision to make this information available is unknown, but thankfully it included the tracing board of the 1st-degree Freemasons. When I discovered this page at the college, I was amazed that the galactic alignment scheduled to occur in 2012 is clearly depicted on the tracing board. Even more surprising, it is connected with the ladder that the enlightened Mason may use to reach the location of the Great Architect of the Universe in 2012shown to be the seven-star Pleiades system of Apollo/Osiris! The tracing board is stunning in its symbolism, depicting nearly everything we have stated thus far concerning the god of Freemasonry, the myths associated with him, and the date on which he is prophesied to return. When interpreting the symbolism of this tracing board, it is important to remain faithful to the information provided on the Universitys website, which in turn is consistent with Scottish Rite Freemasonry. Specific language from the site, therefore, has been used inhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 144 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMdeciphering the tracing boards meaning, including the following: The Blazing Star, or glory in the centre, refers us to the Sun, which enlightens the earth,Page 127and by its benign influence dispenses its blessings to mankind in general. The Indented or Tessellated Border refers us to the Planets, which, in their various revolutions form a beautiful border or skirtwork round that grand luminary, the Sun. In all regular, well-formed, constituted Lodges, there is a point within a circle round which the Brethren cannot err. This circle is bounded between North and South by two grand parallel lines. On the upper part of this circle rests the Volume of the Sacred Law, supporting Jacob's ladder, the top of which reaches to the heavens. The three great pillars supporting a Freemason's Lodge are emblematic of those Divine attributes, and further represent Solomon King of Israel, Hiram, King of Tyre and Hiram Abiff. Solomon King of Israel for his wisdom in building, completing, and dedicating the Temple at Jerusalem to God's service; Hiram King of Tyre [Lucifer of Ezekiel 28:1119?] for his strength in supporting him with men and materials; and Hiram Abiff [Osiris, according to Freemasonry] for his curious and masterly workmanship in beautifying and adorning the same. [The] Mason who is possessed of this virtue in its most ample sense may justly be deemed to have attained the summit of his profession; figuratively speaking, an ethereal mansion, veiled from mortal eyes by the starry firmament, emblematically depicted in our Lodges by seven Stars, which have an allusion to as many regularly made Masons; without which number no Lodge is perfect, neither can any candidate be legally initiated into the Order The Sun and Moon are messengers of His will. Using the descriptions of the symbols provided by Masons, the first thing one notes at the bottom of the ladder is the point within the circle: the symbol of Ra, Osiris, and Isis joined in procreation, bounded between North and South by two grand parallel lines. The blazing star near the center of the board represents the Dog Star Sirius, which is related to Lucifer and the Osiris epic at length, according to Albert Pike in Morals and Dogma. He noted that the 1st-degree Masons who would use this tracing board would be ignorant of this connection; they would think the blazing star represents the sun, as they are instructed to believe according to guidelines on the university website. But those adepts initiated into the mysteries understand it is Siriusconnected to Lucifer, Isis, Osiris, and the all-seeing eye of Osirisas his is the All-Seeing Eye in our Lodges, according to Pike.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 145 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMConcerning this deity, instructions on the University website to the 1st-degree Freemasons go on to explain that the sun and moon at the top of the board are messengers of the god. Understanding this, the solstice sun in the upper left corner does in fact tell us something very clearly about time and its relationship with the Isis/Osiris symbolism. The sun is depicted sitting in the dark rift of the Milky Way, while the moon on the right is joined by the seven stars of the Pleiades. Simply put, this is the arrangement that will happen when the Mayan Long Count calendar concludes and the winter solstice sun aligns with the the dark rift, a place the Maya described as being the Road to the Underworld. The tracing board thus conveys that at the moment this galactic alignment occurs, the dawn of a newPage 128age of Osiris will begin when the ladder to heaven joins the devout Mason with his Great Architect of the Universe on December 21, 2012.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 146 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 129 153 152 151 150 149 148 147 146 145 144 143 142 141 140 139 138 137 136 135 134 133 132 131 130Chapter 12Final Part of the Last Mystery of the Great Seal: WhenA couple of points need clarification at the beginning of this final chapter having to do with 1) date setting; and 2) extra-biblical sources for interpreting end-times prophecy. Setting dates in particular for eschatological affairs, such as the beginning of sorrows, the return of Christ, or the battle ofhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 147 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMArmageddon have been illustrated historically to be unwise, discrediting those who make such predictions concerning the exact timing of future events. In general, Christians should simply always be ready for the end of the age and the coming of Christ, because ye know not what hour your Lord doth come (Matthew 24:42). Jesus further told His followers that the exact date of His arrival would be known by no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only (Matthew 24:36). While the particular moment of His appearance thus remains a mystery, elsewhere Jesus explained that the signs of the times can be discerned (Matthew 16:3), and when His closest disciples asked Him frankly, What shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? He provided a long list of specific indicators that would herald His arrival. He then added that, When ye shall see these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled (Matthew 24:3; 3334). Therefore, while most Christians agree they cannot know the exact hour of Christs coming or the end of the age, they can know the season. Another issue that arises when interpreting end-time signs comes from the use of non-canonical sources. This could include the writings of famous seers such as Nostradamus, or in more recent history, those of Edgar Cayce or Jeane Dixon. The use of apocryphal or pseudepigraphal literature that was (or is) considered sacred can also be involved, such as the first book of Enoch, which some expositors believe should be included among sacred Scriptures. While most Bible scholars admit these texts can provide invaluable insights for helping students of history fill gaps between cultural and historical events related to first-century Judaism and the background of Christianity (for instance,Page 154The Jewish War and Antiquities of the Jews by Josephus), they believe these should not be elevated among divinely inspired or authoritative sources, especially if they contradict or supplant existing canonical teachings (the Bible). Having stated the above, the obvious question then arises: Why would we proceed to discuss the year 2012, most publicly identified with the end of the Mayan Calendar Long Count and Precession Cycle? The answer is that we do so precisely because Apollyon Rising 2012 is intended to unveil not just what Bible scholars believe about the end times, but what occultists are convinced of and are dedicated to fulfilling. Furthermore, extra-biblical prophecies by those such as the Maya or the Cumaean Sibyl were sometimes astonishingly accurate. Occult power may have provided supernatural perception, as illustrated by Jannes and Jambres (2 Timothy 3:8), who withstood Moses in the Old Testament, and the Pythian priestess in the New Testament (Acts 16:1617), who somehow knew that God had sent Paul. This fact is especially important at this juncture because while the first part of the final mystery of the Great Seal involves who is prophesied to rule the novus order seclorum, the second, more disturbing, aspect of the U.S. national cipher has to do with when this deityand its nephilim armyare predicted to arrive. From Christians to New Agers, skeptics to historians, the world is presently enthralled with thehttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 148 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMmeaning of the year 2012. In general, the excitement (or dread, as the case may be) surrounds a variety of predictions made by ancient and modern sources concerning a portentous moment in time. Mankind is on course toward unprecedented global upheaval, according to these experts, when the earth and all life on it will undergo apocalyptica marked by the end of the thirteenth baktun of the Mesoamerican Mayan Long Count. The exact end date of this calendar is December 21, 2012, when during the winter solstice at 11:11 GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) the sun will align with the galactic center of the Milky Way galaxy, an event that occurs only every thirteen thousand years. The precession of the equinoxes will conclude a twenty-six-thousand-year cycle, bringing the astrological Age of Pisces to an end and introducing the beginning of Aquarius, when the next cycle begins and the sun rises out of the mouth of the Ouroboros (great serpent of the Milky Way). This is the sun rising in Sagittarius, the centaur with a bowthe symbol for Nimrod coming out from the mouth of Leviathan and the sun god rising againNimrod/Osiris/Apollo. The Mayans predicted this conjunction, interpreting it as a harbinger of the end of the world as we know it. While the Maya were not alone among ancient cultures in this regardfor instance, the Hindu Kali Yuga calendar started approximately during the Mayan Fifth Great Cycle and also predicts global earth changes around the year 2012it is the Maya who are mostly credited with fixing the importance of this date. Researchers say cataclysmic events associated with this time frame have already started, including geologic upheaval, drought, famine, mass extinction, and a lack of sunspot activity to be followed by solar maximum in the year 2012. Like the Aztec and Inca, the Maya believed earth seasons and celestial cycles were affected by otherworldly and prophetic significance. Mayan priests interpreted such activity and coupled it with the mathematics of their calendars, making predictions based on the terrestrial and celestial cycles. So far, the only known Mayan inscription that elaborates on the specific significance behind the end of the thirteenth baktunDecember 21, 2012was discovered on Monument 6 at Tortuguero, in Tabasco, Mexico. Though defaced from area construction and previous looting of the archaeologicalPage 155location, scholars were able to partially translate the monument, finding that it refers to a year 2012 return of Bolon Yokte Ku, the underworld lord who represents the solar system and the nine support gods orbiting the Sun. The inscription: Tzuhtz-(a)j-oom u(y)-uxlajuun pik (ta) Chan Ajaw ux(-te) Uniiw. Uhtoom ? Y-em(al)?? Bolon Yookte Kuh ta ? The interpretation: The Thirteenth Baktun will be finished (on) Four Ajaw, the Third of Uniiw (Kankin). ? will occur. (It will be) the descent (??) of the Nine Support? God(s) to the ?. While New Agers admit the end of the Mayan calendar heralds the return of Bolon Yokte Ku to earth in 2012 (the date the Toltec prophesied the physical return of the serpent god Quetzalcoatl), theyhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 149 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMclaim the potentially cataclysmic event will actually launch a new Golden Age of ascended consciousness. Others are not so sure. Michael D. Coe, whose 1966 work, The Maya, is credited with first bringing the momentous end date to the publics attention, wrote in 2005: There is a suggestionthat Armageddon would overtake the degenerate peoples of the world and all creation on the final day of the thirteenth [baktun]. Thusour present universe[would] be annihilated [in] 2012, when the Great Cycle of the Long Count reaches completion. Time does not allow for a study of each of the numerous sources marking the year 2012 as the end of the age. (For instance: The Bible Code claim that the world will end on this date due to a collision with a meteor, asteroid, or comet; the return of Planet X creating a pole shift and causing the destruction of earth; The Orion Prophecy research by Patrick Geryl and Gino Ratinckx claiming 2012 apocalyptic prophecy is encoded in the Egyptian Sphinx, pyramids, and zodiacs of the Greco-Roman Dendera temple; or the theory repeated on the television program The X-Files, which speculates colonization of the earth by aliens in December 2012, an idea recently supported by Tibetan Monks). However, I briefly summarize below a few of the noteworthy predictive models involving the year 2012, to be followed next week by what we consider to be far more important and previously undisclosed information regarding this date. 2012 and the I-Ching The ending date 2012 can also be found in one of Chinas oldest classic texts, the Book of Changes, or I-Ching, an ancient symbol system that was used to divine order from random events. When the late philosopher and scientist Terrance McKenna, originator of Timewave Zero or Novelty Theory, and his brother, Dennis, began studying the I-Ching some years ago, they camePage 156across a series of unexpected patterns in the King Wen sequence ending with the year 2012. Using the sixty-four hexagrams of six levels of alternating horizontal bars and dots in the I-Ching, Terrance created a linear model that began thousands of years ago when the I-Ching was created, and continuing into the future. Using a computer program, he formulated a stock market-like graph that depicted a rising and falling line based on patterns from the I-Ching.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 150 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMTo his surprise, he discovered that the high and low parts of the graph corresponded with times in history when novelty or major world events transpired, including a spike around the time of September 11, 2001, and a coming spike for October 2010. But one date was unparalleled elsewhere on the graph. This is when the line simply ends, abruptly plunging off the graph into infinity December 21, 2012. This finding is all the more astonishing given that McKennas research was published in 1973 independent of any knowledge of the ending date in the Mayan calendar. 2012 and the Web Bot Project Of similar interest is the Web Bot Project, which was developed in the late 1990s for tracking and making stock market predictions. The technology crawls the Internet, much like a search engine does, searching for keywords and following chatter in order to tap into the collective unconscious of the global community for tipping points regarding past, current, and future buying patterns. In 2001, operators began noticing what looked like more than coincidences, and that the bot was taking on a mind of its own, accurately predicting more than just stock market predictions, including June of 2001 when the program predicted that a life-altering event would be felt worldwide and would take place within sixty to ninety days. On September 11, 2001, the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center fell. The Web Bot also predicted the 2001 anthrax attack on Washington DC; the earthquake that produced the December 26, 2004, tsunami; Hurricane Katrina; and more. The Web Bot has now foretold global devastation for late December 2012. 2012 and Solar Maximum In 2006, NASA published a report by Mausumi Dikpati of the National Center for Atmospheric Research on what could be the most powerful solar storm since records began approximately four hundred years ago, scheduled to reach solar maximum in the year 2012. The geomagnetic storm that results during this time could itself become apocalyptic. In April 2009, Michael Hanlon speculated for Londons Daily Mail what this might mean, in an article entitled Meltdown: The catastrophe, when it comes, will be beautiful at first. It is a balmy evening in late September 2012. Ever since the sun set, the dimming skies over London have been alive with fire. Pillars of incandescent green writhe like gigantic serpents across the skies. Sheets of orange race across the horizon during the most spectacular display of the aurora borealis seen in southern England for 153 years. And then, ninety seconds later, the lights start to go out. Not the lights in the skythey will dazzle until dawnbut the lights on the ground.Page 157http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 151 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMWithin an hour, large parts of Britain are without power. By midnight, every mobile network is down and the Internet is dying. Televisionterrestrial and satelliteblinks off the air. Radio is reduced to a burst of static. By noon the following day, it is clear something terrible has happened and the civilized world has plunged into chaos. A year later, Britain, most of Europe plus North America is in the grip of the deepest economic catastrophe in history. By the end of 2013, one hundred thousand Europeans have died of starvation. Hanlon goes on to detail the effects of 2012s catastrophic solar storm, including food shortages, energy shortages, and rampant disease, concluding that it would be wise to start stocking up on some candles. 2012 and the Ancient Cherokee Rattlesnake Prophecies The Cherokee Rattlesnake Prophecies, also known as the Chickamaugan Prophecy or the Cherokee Star Constellation Prophecies, are part of a series of apocalyptic prophecies made by members of the Cherokee tribe during 18111812. The prophecies are very similar to Mesoamerican belief, and are viewed by scholars as likely referring to the return of the feathered serpent god Quetzalcoatl in the year 2012. Like the Maya, the Cherokee calendar ends mysteriously in the year 2012 when astronomical phenomena related to Jupiter, Venus, Orion, and Pleiades cause the powers of the star systems to awaken. A portion of the Rattlesnake Prophecy reads: At this time [2012] of the fingers striking Jupiter that Orion Star System will awaken. And the Pleiades and Orion will war once again as in old. Jupiter and Venus will awaken to its destiny of Time/Untime of cycles. Orion will war with Pleiades, Jupiter will war with Venus. In the year2012 an alignment will take place both on the Cherokee calendar and in the heavens of the Rattlesnake Constellation. It is the time of the double headed serpent stick. It is the time of the red of Orion and Jupiter against the white blue of Pleiades and Venus. In the year2012 the Cherokee Rattlesnake Constellation will take on a different configuration. The snake itself will remain, however; upon the Rattlesnake shall be added upon its head feathers, its eyes will open and glow, wings spring forth as a wingedhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 152 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMrattlesnake. It shall have hands and arms and in its hands shall be a bowl. The bowl willPage 158hold blood. Upon its tail of seven rattles shall be the glowing and movement of Pleiades. The Rattlesnake shall become a feathered rattlesnake or feathered serpent of Time/Untime [Quetzalcoatl?]. And upon the Rattlesnake is also the Milky Way. A crossing of the Milky Way shall be seen at these times [2012]. And the Cherokee calendar shall end in the year 2012[with] the coming of the Pale One once again. 2012 and Prophecy from the Zohar on Messiahs Return Widely considered the most important work of Jewish Kabbalah, the Zohar is a collection of books written in medieval Aramaic over seven hundred years ago containing mystical commentary on the Pentateuch (five books of Moses, the Torah). In addition to interpreting Scripture, the Vaera section (volume 3, section 34) includes The signs heralding Mashiach, or The coming of the Messiah. The fascinating date for his appearance is set in the Zohar at late 2012. Given the rejection of Jesus by orthodox Jews as Messiah, this coming could herald the unveiling of Antichrist in 2012. J. R. Church of Prophecy in the News called my office recently and led me through verses 476483 of this part of the Zohar to point out what nobody, as far as I have been able to find, in the 2012 research community has written beforethat the time of Jacobs trouble (the Great Tribulation) will commence according to this ancient text in the year 2012 when the kings of the earth gather in Rome and are killed by meteoric stones from the sky. Interestingly, among other scholars of the implications of the year 2012, a few have pointed to a prophecy by Malachy OMorgair, or St. Malachy as he is known to Catholics, having to do with the last pope. The prophecy, taken from St. Malachys Prophecy of the Popes, is among a list of verses predicting each of the Roman Catholic popes from Pope Celestine II to the final pope, Peter the Roman, whose reign would end in the destruction of Rome. According to Malachys prophecy, the next pope (following Benedict XVI) is to be the final pontiff, Petrus Romanus, or Peter the Roman. He will assume authority during a time of great tribulation, and then the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible and fearsome Judge will judge his people. 2012 and Matthew 24http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 153 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMIs it possible that Jesus marked the year 2012 as prophetic? When His disciples asked, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world [aion]? (Matthew 24:3), Jesus answered, as the Days of Noe [Noah] were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be (Matthew 24:37). The word aion in this text is not the general word for time (chronos) in Greek. Aion is the word the Greeks used to designate an actual cycle of the Milky Way alignments or the span of an age. David Flynn says of this: The answer Jesus provided His apostles for when the end of the aion wouldPage 159occur was specific. The astronomical signs in the heavens would be just as those during the days of Noah when Leviathan encircled the horizon in the dawn of the Summer solstice. There could have been no more accurate comparison made between our present time than the age of Noah.The present aion is coming to a close. Like the sunteleia before, there will be great upheaval and change. 2012 and Christian Prophecy The man who is known as the Walking Bible due to extensive memorization of Bible texts, Jack Van Impe, recently broadcast on his syndicated Jack Van Impe Presents a special show called December 21, 2012: Historys Final Day? in which he described various cultural and secular sources pointing to the year 2012 as being ominous. Some of the material he covered is listed above, such as the Mayan prophecy and the I-Ching. But Impe also shared how he had gone through three thousand headlines and found that everything the prognosticators were saying about the year 2012 reflected what the book of Revelation and the Old Testament prophets foretold for the end of time. Another Christian researcher who believes the year 2012 could be important is Pastor Mark Biltz of El Shaddai Ministries. Based on his research into Jewish feasts and blood moon eclipses, Biltz found on NASAs website evidence that a rare event called a tetradin which four consecutive total lunar eclipses or blood moons appear in a centurywill coincide with Passover holy days in 20142015. According to Biltz, tetrads have historically appeared around special dates in Israels history such as during Passover and Succoth following Israel becoming a nation in 1948, and again in 19671968 following the Six-Day War when Israel recaptured Jerusalem. In 20142015, blood moons will occur the first day of the Hebrew year and again on the High Holy Day of Rosh Hashanah. If these are in fulfillment of the prophecies of Jesus in Matthew 24:2930 and Joel 2:31 concerning The sun [being] turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord, they could indicate the imminent return of Christ hypothetically in 20152016. As noted in a previous entry, this would also mean the year 2012 could be the midst of the week when Antichrist breaks his covenant with Israel and Great Tribulation begins. Deeper Secrets: Maya, Watchers, and the 2012 Returnhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 154 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPart of the legitimate concern revolving around the year 2012 stems from the fact that the Maya were unquestionably gifted mathematicians and astronomers. They measured the length of the solar year far more accurately than did the Europeans in their Gregorian calendar, and precisely oriented their sacred buildings and cities with stars and star clusters, particularly Pleiades and the Orion Nebula associated throughout the ancient Middle East with Osiris/Apollo/Nimrod. The pre-Columbian book, Codex Dresdensis (a.k.a. the Dresden Codex) by the Yucatecan Maya is famous for its first-known related illustrations of advanced calculations and astronomical phenomena. But how the pretelescopic Maya were uniquely aware of such important knowledge is unclear. They themselveslike other archaic cultures didcredited ancient gods with bringing the heavenly information to earth. In 2008, fellow researcher David Flynn may have uncovered important information related to this legend, the size and scope of which simply surpass comprehension. It involves mammoth traces of intelligence carved in stone and covering hundreds of square miles, possibly the strongest evidencePage 160ever detected of prehistoric engineering by those who were known and feared throughout the ancient world as godsthe giant offspring of the Watchers. In the same way modern archeologists only recently found the ruins of hidden Mayan temples in the Guatemalan jungle by using satellites, Flynn employed above-earth orbiting satellites to image a vast network of patterns that surround Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, South America, which extend for more than one hundred miles south into the Bolivian desert. The patterns display geometric repetition and intelligent designs, including interlocking rectangular cells and mounds, perfectly straight lines, and repeated sharp angle turns that do not occur naturally. These cover every topographical feature of the high plateau surrounding the lake, over flood plains, hills, cliffs, and mountains. The full report of this remarkable research plus numerous satellite images will be available at www.ApollyonRising2012.com very soon. Twelve miles south of Lake Titicaca, located within the center of the array of geoglyphs, lies the megalithic ruins of Tiahuanaco. Known as the American Stonehenge or the Baalbek of the New World, its architecture exhibits technological skill that exceeds modern feats of building. At Tiahuanaco, immense stone works were joined with modular fittings and complex breach-locking levels that have never been seen in any other ancient culture. According to engineers, one of the largest single stones ever to be moved and put into building anywhere on earth (about four hundred tons) was transported to Tiahuanaco from a quarry over two hundred miles away. This feat is even more incomprehensible when one realizes the route of transport was through a mountain range up to fifteen thousand feet. Conventional historians try to assign the age of the structures at Tiahuanaco to around 600 BC, postulating that a pre-Inca civilization, without benefit of the wheel, modern tools, or even a writtenhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 155 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMlanguage constructed these architectural marvels. But the historian Arthur Posnansky studied the area for more than fifty years and observed that sediment had been deposited over the site to the depth of six feet. Within this overburden, produced by a massive flood of water sometime around the Pleistocene age (thirteen thousand years ago), fossilized human skulls were unearthed together with seashells and remnants of tropical plants. The skulls have nearly three times the cranial capacity of modern man and are displayed in the La Paz museum in Bolivia. In addition, when the first Spanish chroniclers arrived with the conquistador Pizaro, the Inca explained that Tiahuanaco had been constructed by a race of giants called Huaris before Chamakpacha, the period of darkness, and was already in ruins before their civilization began. They said these giants had been created by Viracocha (Kukulkan to the Maya and Quetzalcoatl to the Aztecs), the god who came from the heavens (a.k.a. the Watchers). He (Viracocha) created animals and a race of giants. These beings enraged the Lord, and he turned them into stone. Then he flooded the earth till all was under water, and all life extinguished. This flood was called uu pachacuti, by the Inca which means water that overturns the land. They say that it rained sixty days and nights, that it drowned all created things, and that there alone remained some vestiges of those who were turned into stones. Viracocha rose from the bosom of Lake Titicaca, and presided over the erection of those wondrous cities whose ruins still dot its islands and western shores, and whosePage 161history is totally lost in the night of time. Inca mythology involving giants, followed by world deluge, agree with similar legends from the Maya, Olmec, and Aztec cultures of Mexico. These stories are consistent with Sumerian and Hebrew accounts of the Flood and of the giant nephilim whose history of human sacrifices also parallel Mayan rituals (victims of Maya had their arms and legs held down while a priest cut their chests open and ripped out their hearts). The Greeks likewise recorded how prehistoric giants were responsible for the creation of megalithic structures discovered around the world, and Islamic folklore ascribes this prehistoric building activity to a race of super beings called jinn (genies): The Jinn were before Adam: They built huge cities whose ruins still stand in forgotten places. [2] In Egypt, the Edfu temple texts, believed to predate the Egyptians themselves, explain something of additional significance, reminiscent of nephilim activity before and after the Flood: The most ancient of earths temples and monuments were built to bring about the resurrection of the destroyed world of the gods. Within the Inca religious paradigm, the oldest record of the Andean region available, the Tiahuanacohttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 156 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMgeoglyphs are therefore viewed as the vestiges of a lost civilization that knew its destinyto be destroyed by world cataclysm. In this regard, the geoglyphs serve not only as a memorial of an ancient existence, but also as a warning for future humanity and the return of a destructive epoch, or as David Flynn concludes The geoglyphs seem to be physical evidence that supports the Middle and South American myths of world deluge and giants. Their discovery in modern times fits Inca and Mayan prophecies of an awakening to knowledge of the ancient past, of the builder gods and of their return. It is perhaps testament to the accuracy of these prophecies that the date, December 21, 2012, is known so widely in modern timesthe end of the Mayan calendar. That the Maya prehistory echoes the advent of the mysterious Watchers, their giant offspring, and the end date 2012 could be beyond significant. In May 2005, I commissioned Flynn to write another study for my daily news service (www.RaidersNewsNetwork.com) based on mutual research we were investigating at that time. The article, An Occult Translation of the Roswell Event: Countdown to 2012 was truly unprecedented and later formed the basis of Flynns presentation at the 2005 Ancient of Days Conference in Roswell, New Mexico. The feature article has since been quoted hundreds of times by media and republished in magazines and print publications around the world, yet what the extraordinary findings actually foretell remains hidden to most of the world. Like Dr. I. D. E. Thomas, Dr. Jacques F. Valle, Chuck Missler, and others, Flynn became fascinated with the mysterious connection between Watchers, so-called aliens, the coming of Antichrist, the Mayan date 2012, and the hidden occult aspiration of Freemasons and other Illuminatus related to these subjects. Starting out, Flynn cited how, in 1928, the occult visionary Manly P. Hall wrote:Page 162European mysticism was not dead at the time the United States of America was founded. The hand of the mysteries controlled in the establishment of the new government for the signature of the mysteries may still be seen on the Great Seal of the United States of America. Careful analysis of the seal discloses a mass of occult and Masonic symbols, chief among them, the so-called American eagle. The American eagle upon the Great Seal is but a conventionalized phoenix. [3] Phoenix, the last word of Halls statement of the founding of America, was key to the secret destiny of civilization, for as occultists understand, the word phoenix is derivative of Phoenicians and refers to the ancient people who inhabited the very land recorded in the book of Enoch as the entry point for Watcher influence from Mt. Hermon in Phoenicia. Intriguingly, the consonants in Hebrew that make up the word Hermon are ch-r-m or the noun cherem, meaninghttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 157 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMdevoted to destruction, and as Elizabeth van Buren in The Secret of the Illuminati acknowledged, the great significance of this Phoenician watcher location could be understood through the occult value of the numbers three and thirty-three when combined with the most important science of Freemasonry, navigation, and sacred location. The compass and square, the most visible emblems of Masonry, are the symbols of this navigation and mapmaking process. The number three is essential because without the geometry of the threesided triangle, establishing location and distance on a maptriangulationis impossible. Navigation not only predicts the destination of a traveler on the earth but also the time the traveler will arrive. As the navigator can use increments of the earths latitude and longitude to determine location in space and time, these increments can be measured in the earth itself according to mystics to reveal the appointed time of humanitys destiny. This is one of the main reasons the number thirtythree and the compass and square are such important symbols of the illumined elite. With this in mind, Flynn made the unprecedented disclosure that 33.33 degrees of the great circle of the earth represents 2012 nautical miles, the identical number at the end of the Mayan calendar that measures the ending of the earth. Flynn further revealed that Mount Hermon in Phoenicia, the first location of the descent of the Watchers, lies precisely at 33.33 degrees north, 33.33 degrees east, 2,012 miles from the equator, and 2,012 miles from the prime meridian, a location of Mt. Hermon in longitude based on the Paris 0 meridian 2.20 degrees east of Greenwich.Page 163http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 158 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMTo be even more accurate, the number of nautical miles in 33.33 degrees of the earth is 2012 .9. This actually corresponds more precisely with the ending year date of the Mayan calendar December 21, 2012when the gods that came once before are scheduled to return. Does the chosen location of the first connection of Watchers on Mt. Hermon at 33.33 degrees north and 33.33 east set in time a luciferian plan for a final New World Order in 2012? In light of the ancient history of Mt. Hermon and the Mayan buildings and cities having been intentionally aligned with the Pleiades and Orion Nebula, the return to earth of the god these terrestrial and celestial locations are historically connected withApollo/Osiris/Nimrodliterally seems to have been set in stone. The highest sacred number (thirty-three) of the occultists who encoded the return of Apollo on the Great Seal of the United States also equals: 1) the exact location where the Watchers first descended to earth and; 2) triangulates the mile measurement 2012the end date of the Mayan countdown to the return of their bloodthirsty god. A related matter that is equally disturbing and perhaps validates the concerns of Dr. Thomas, Vallee, Flynn, and others whose research produced repetitive connections between Watchers and so-called probing aliens is the most celebrated ufological location on earththe impact site near Roswell, New Mexico, which sits incredibly at 33 degrees north latitude, at a distance 2,012 miles from the equator! Furthermore, when the latitude of the Roswell impact site, 33 degrees north, is multiplied by the universal mathematical constant pi (3.1415926572), the result is 104 degrees, the longitude of the impact site! Scientists at the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) know that a radio message from intelligent extraterrestrial life would use such redundant universal mathematical constants, which are not dependent on calibration systems, but on ratios. Any signal coming from space that has these numbers would stand out against the randomness in the background of space noise and would define itself as intelligent and deliberate. This is the case with the location of the Roswell incident, as the odds against a crash location occurring by chance precisely at the whereabouts that are the product of pi x 33 are astronomicalon the order of millions to one. The location appears to have been chosen to show deliberate and intelligent coordinates related to the occult values thirty-three (= the Masonic prophecy) and 2012 (= the year the god returns) in precise parallel to the fixed locationPage 164http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 159 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMwhere Watchers first descended. You can read more on this amazing research at www.ApollyonRising2012.com. [added soon] It might seem beyond mere chance therefore that the United States recovered the debris and alien bodies of the Roswell crash on the Fourth of July, 1947. America was founded on the same date in 1776 (also the year the Order of the Illuminati was established), chosen by the elite behind the formation of America for a special reason, which we discussed earlier, related to 33.33 as the ultimate number of earthly luciferian government. Is it therefore coincidence that important ancient structures were built around the world on or near the earths thirty-third parallelincluding Great Pyramids, Megiddo, Tyre (where Ezekiel compared the ancient king to Lucifer), the Temple of Marduk, Babylon, Baalbeck, and dozens more? Reason may be shed in the book of Revelation concerning why this number in particular seems to be so important to occultists, ancient pagans, and the messengers of Mt. Hermon and Roswell: And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon. And his tail drew the third part [33.33 percent] of the [angels] of heaven, and did cast them to the earth. (Revelation 12:34) Of course, the correlation between the Masonic number thirty-three and the year 2012, plus the matching of these numbers to the exact coordinates of the arrival of Watchers on Mt. Hermon and the date that the Maya predict the return of the gods, could be nothing more than a coincidence. An amazing and mathematically incomprehensible coincidenceand yet the rabbit hole goes deeper Great Deception 2012 and the Final Conclave While a magnificent amount of material has been published in recent years involving the Mayan date 2012, until this book, the world at large has been unaware of the connection between this year and the Great Seal regarding the arrival of Apollo/Osiris/Nimrod and the final World Order. This includes the prophecies of the Cumaean Sibylwhose prophecy concerning the return of Apollo is encoded on the Masonically designed Great Seal of the United Stateswho was (and is) so highly regarded as a true prophetess among the occult hierarchy as well as holding occasions of sacred esteem in the Vaticans holy places, including the Sistine Chapel. It therefore bears repeating here the concerns of several church fathers concerning end-times great deception, and what they said about Masonic involvement in the religious institution ultimately paving the way for the coming of the False Prophet and Antichrist. To start with, among scholars of the implications of the year 2012, more than a few have pointed to the contemporaneous prophecy of St. Malachy having to do with the last Pope. The prophecy, taken from St. Malachys Prophecy of the Popes, is among a list of verses predicting each of the Roman Catholic popes from Pope Celestine II to the final pope, Peter the Roman, whose reign would end in the destruction of Rome. First published in 1595, the prophecies were attributed to St. Malachy by a Benedictine historian named Arnold de Wyon, who recorded them in his book, Lignum Vit.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 160 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMTradition holds that Malachy had been called to Rome by Pope Innocent II, and while he was there, he experienced the vision of the future popes, including the last one, which he wrote down in a seriesPage 165of cryptic phrases. According to the prophecy, the next pope (following Benedict XVI) is to be the final pontiff, Petrus Romanus or Peter the Roman. The prophecy: In persecutione extrema S. R. E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis ciuitas septicollis diruetur, et Iudex tremendus iudicabit populum. Finis. Interpretation: In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations; when they are over, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the terrible or fearsome Judge will judge his people. The End. Some believers in this prophecy say the title Petrus Romanus (Peter the Roman) is symbolic of the pontificate, and that the final pope could have a Christian name variation that satisfies this meaning. On this order, the man who in 2002 correctly predicted that the pope succeeding John Paul II would be named Benedict XVI, Ronald L. Conte Jr., believes the next pope will take the name Pius XIII, and that Peter the Roman means this pope will reaffirm the authority of the Roman Pontiff over the Church; this authority is based on his place as a Successor of Peter and will emphasize the supremacy of the Roman Catholic Faith and the Roman Catholic Church above all other religions and denominations, and its authority over all Christians and all peoples of the world. To this, Conte adds, During the reign of Pope Peter the Roman, the great apostasy begins and this pope will mark the first part of the tribulation, during our generation. The idea by some Catholics that the final pope on St. Malachys list heralds the beginning of great apostasy followed by great tribulationand that this is either the current pope or the next one (some debate exists on this)sets the stage for the imminent unfolding of apocalyptic events, something many non-Catholics would agree with. This could give rise to a false prophet, who according to the book of Revelation leads the worlds religious communities into embracing a political leader known as the Antichrist. This marriage of church and secular government would give unprecedented global influence to the Man of Sin during the period known as the Great Tribulation. In recent history, several Catholic priestssome deceased nowhave been surprisingly outspoken on what they have seen as the inevitable danger of the False Prophet rising from within the ranks of Catholicism as a result of secret satanic Illuminati-Masonic influences.

According to Catholic priests such as Father John F. OConnor, Father Alfred Kunz, Father Malachi Martin, and others, among this secret society are sinister false Catholic infiltrators who understand that, as the Roman Catholic Church represents one-sixth of the worlds population and over half of all Christians, it is indispensable for controlling future global elements in matters ofPage 166church and state. In a two-hour presentation (available on DVD), Father OConnor gave a homily titled The Reign of the Antichrist, in which he described how changes within society and in the institution were already at work before his death to provide for the coming of Antichrist. In this sermon and elsewhere, OConnor outlined the catalyst for this scheme unfolding as a result of Masonic Conspirators within the organization whose plan, called Alta Vendetta, would essentially take control of the papacy and help the False Prophet deceive the worlds faithful (including Catholics) into worshipping Antichrist. OConnor was not alone as whistleblower to the vast Masonic conspiracy within the Vaticans ranks covertly working toward an anti-Christian New World Order. Retired professor of the Pontifical Biblical Institute, eminent Catholic theologian and former Jesuit priest, Malachi Martin was a close personal friend of Pope Paul VI and worked within the Holy See doing research on the Dead Sea Scrolls, publishing articles in journals on Semitic paleography, and teaching Aramaic, Hebrew, and Sacred Scripture. In 1965, Paul VI granted Martin a dispensation from his Jesuit and priestly duties, and Martin moved to New York, where he dedicated himself to writing aboutand sometimes speaking out ona variety of issues stemming from the Second Vatican Council, to detailed insider accounts of papal history, Catholic dogma, and geopolitics. As a member of the Vatican Advisory Council and personal secretary to renowned Jesuit Cardinal Augustin Bea, Martin had privileged information pertaining to secretive church and world issues, including the Third Secret of Fatima, which Martin hinted spelled out parts of the plan to formerly install the dreaded False Prophet during a Final Conclave. On this, Martins claim that an Illuminati-Masonic group made up of Western plutocrats called The Assembly or the Superforce had infiltrated the highest levels of Vatican administration and were working to bring about a New World Order, may have led to involvement by operatives of the same group concerning his untimely, some say suspicious death in 1999.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 162 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMTen years earlier, before something pushed him and Malachi Martin fell and later died, he had become increasingly candid about what he said was pedophilic Satanism among certain cardinals and other clergy in league with a secret Masonic diabolicus that began following the enthronement of the fallen Archangel Lucifer in the Roman Catholic Citadel on June 29, 1963. In The Keys of This Blood, Martin wrote: Most frighteningly for John Paul, he had come up against the irremovable presence of a malign strength in his own Vatican and in certain bishops chanceries. It was what knowledgeable Churchmen called the superforce. Rumors, always difficult to verify, tied its installation to the beginning of Pope Paul VIs reign in 1963. Indeed Paul had alluded somberly to the smoke of Satan which has entered the Sanctuaryan oblique reference to an enthronement ceremony by Satanists in the Vatican.Page 167Martin had concealed greater detail of this luciferic enthronement ceremony by Satanists in the Vatican in his novel, Windswept House: The Enthronement of the Fallen Archangel Lucifer was effected within the Roman Catholic Citadel on June 29, 1963; a fitting date for the historic promise about to be fulfilled. As the principal agents of this Ceremonial well knew, Satanist tradition had long predicted that the Time of the Prince would be ushered in at the moment when a Pope would take the name of the Apostle Paul [Pope Paul VI]. That requirementthe signal that the Availing Time had begunhad been accomplished just eight days before with the election of the latest Peterin-the-Line. Martin stated publicly on more than one occasion that the enthronement of Lucifer in Rome was based on fact, and that to facilitate the black magic, a parallel ceremony was conducted simultaneously in the United States in Charleston, South Carolina. The reason this location was selected has remained obscure to many, but given what Malachi said about the Masonic connection, it makes sense that South Carolina was chosen: It is the site of the first Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite Freemasonry in the United States, called the Mother Lodge of the World, where in 1859, champion of luciferian dogma for the Masonic-Illuminatus, Albert Pike became Grand Commander of the Supreme Council, where he served the Order of the Quest until his death in Washington DC on April 2, 1892. In addition, Charleston, at the thirty-third parallel, was perfect for such an event, according to the logic of former Sirhan Sirhan attorney, Day Williams, because, If a life is taken close to the33rd Parallel, this fits with the Masons demonic mythology in which they demonstrate their worldly power by spilling human blood at a predetermined locale.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 163 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMMartin provided additional reasoning for the South Carolina location: Such unobtrusive elements as the Pentagram and the black candles and the appropriate draperies could be part of the Ceremonial in Rome. But other Rubericsthe Bowl of Bones and the Ritual Din, for example, the sacrificial animals and the victimwould be too much. There would have to be a Parallel Enthronement. A Concelebration could be accomplished with the same effect by the Brethren in an Authorized Targeting Chapel. Provided all the participants in both locations targeted every element of the Event on the Roman Chapel, then the Event in its fullness would be accomplished specifically in the target area. It would all be a matter of unanimity of hearts, identity of intention and perfect synchronization of words and actions between the Targeting Chapel and the Target Chapel. The living wills and the thinking minds of the Participants concentrated on the specific Aim of the Prince would transcend all distance. When John F. McManus, for The New American, June 9, 1997, asked Father Martin if the Black Mass in South Carolina had actually happened, it led to an enlightening Q and A: McManus: Your book begins with a vivid description of a sacrilegious Black Mass held in 1963 in Charleston, South Carolina. Did this really happen? Martin: Yes it did. And the participation by telephone of some high officials of the churchPage 168in the Vatican is also a fact. The young female who was forced to be a part of this satanic ritual is very much alive and, happily, has been able to marry and lead a normal life. She supplied details about the event. McManus: In additionyou depict numerous other cardinals and bishops in a very bad light. Are these characterizations based on fact? Martin: Yes, among the cardinals and the hierarchy there are satanists, homosexuals, antipapists, and cooperators in the drive for world rule. Whether Martin was killed and his death covered up for revealing the Masonic-Illuminati scheme to use the Catholic Church as a launching pad for a luciferic novus ordo seclorum may never be known. One year before he died, however, Martins very good friend, Father Alfred Kunz, was brutally murdered in his church in Dane, Wisconsin. Kunz had been investigating the same Satanism among priests that Martin had warned about, and had told Martin in the weeks before his murder that he feared for his life. When Kunz was found with his throat slit, Martin went public that the luciferians had killed him because he was getting ready to blow the lid off their conspiracy. Like OConnor had, Kunz andhttp://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.com Page 164 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMMartin believed the Catholic Church had been specifically targeted for infiltration by members of this Illuminati-Masonic Superforce because of the churchs geopolitical influence in the world. In the Q and A with McManus, Martin even added that part of the reasoning behind this choice was: The Catholic Church has its own diplomatic corps of ambassadors posted in the highly industrialized nations of the world. There are 180 nations that have sent their own ambassadors to the Vatican. No other church commands this attention. Those who are working for the New World Order must bring this unique organization under their control. Finally from the interview: McManus: Your book claims that subversive influences in the highest clerical positions of the Church are working to bring it into the New World Order. What do you mean by New World Order? Martin: In its completely planned formthe governments of the world will be directed by those who have climbed their way into the capstone. McManus: What do you mean by the capstone? Martin: The underlying force I have written about in Windswept House is structured very much like a pyramid. It is wide at the bottom where many individuals work for its goals and hope to be elevated to a higher place. There are fewer and fewer inhabitants in each of the ascending steps in the structure. Only a very few form its ultimate directorate, the capstone of the pyramid. Long before popular author Dan Brown (The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, The Lost Symbol)Page 169characterized an Illuminati scheme to destroy the Vatican, Malachi Martin had pointed to the familiar pyramid symbolism from the Great Seal of the United States associated with the New World Order and had accurately directed investigators toward the conspirators, as well as to the prophetic references of the novus ordo seclorum as arriving when the capstone would be figuratively filled and fitted atop the unfinished pyramid. Whether Martin perceived the year that the conspirators plan would reach its zenith is uncertain, but the occult elite have always had their date, which, as readers of Apollyon Rising 2012 have discovered, is cleverly encoded alongside the other details of the complete cipher in the Great Seal of the United States, the US Capitol Dome, and the true 'Lost Symbol,' which exists on the grandest scale in the heart of the most powerful nation on earth, the United States.http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 165 of 166Untitled6/23/11 11:40 AMPage 170 171http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:o8eQ_HP4tK0type:pdf&cd=2&hl=en&ct=clnk&client=safari&source=www.google.comPage 166 of 166
