From the original article coming in at number 10... The movie, “Rise of the Guardians” points to 3 days of darkness starting 3 days before Easter and a great deliverance, including spirits being released from prison and the resurrection of the dead, taking place on the night of Easter Sunday. I'm not sure why this was added to this list of thirty...I think some of the arguements are interesting but this item and the one about the Watchmen movie make me scratch my head. Are we to infer that Hollyweird has some sort of inside information about the Rapture and is dropping hints? Or is it possible that the collective subconcious is aware of the impending Rapture and is finding expression in pop culture? Like I say it leaves me scratching my head.

maybe we'll get lucky and they will be like in Matthew "and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many." Matthew 27:52-53

Another interesting passage from 2 Kings 20 1-11 Hezekiah had asked Isaiah, "What will be the sign that the LORD will heal me and that I will go up to the temple of the LORD on the third day from now?" 9 Isaiah answered, "This is the LORD's sign to you that the LORD will do what he has promised: Shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or shall it go back ten steps?" 10 "It is a simple matter for the shadow to go forward ten steps," said Hezekiah. "Rather, have it go back ten steps." 11 Then the prophet Isaiah called upon the LORD, and the LORD made the shadow go back the ten steps it had gone down on the stairway of Ahaz. So here we are told that the shadows reversed themselves by about 10 steps...not sure how many degrees the sun would need to shift in the sky to actually move your shadow back 10 steps, but this would seem to indicate that there may have been a pole shift or reversal... I am inclined to think these passages (if given a "natural" explanation ) refer to a pole shift since I see no indication in the texts that the sun started rising in a different part of the sky or that there were other cataclysms associated with the strange sun phenomena. Kev

Joshua 10:13-14 mentions something which may pertain to a pole shift or a reversal of the poles... "And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. [is] not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day." "And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the LORD hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the LORD fought for Israel." Not specifically mentioned as a pole shift... I'm not sure if this is a pole shift or pole reversal...and I hesitate to find "natural" phenomena that would cloud God's fighting for Israel... My son and I have often talked about the Bible and he asks some very interesting questions that as a parent I feel obliged to answer... "How did God do that?" "Why did God do that?" In the end if God wants to use natural phenomena to work or he chooses to step in with a more "supra-natural" intervention that's His prerogative... Kev

I think we all know something like this is coming...and probably a lot worse as well. Jesus himself said, "How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people... He was speaking of Israel specifically in this passage but I believe there is a broader context as well... Certain things must come to pass for the fulfillment of God's will...this seems to be that life in the END TIMES will not be pleasant but that we should retain hope for the bridegroom will return for his bride. More specifically to Mr. Wilkerson's warning I can only add that myself and several friends and family members have all had dreams of people looting, breaking into homes and shooting all the men, and running wild in the street... The dream felt like a warning...so much so that I added an extra lock to the door...I see nothing wrong in preparing for tough times...can you imagine the chaos of three days of darkness in these tense times? As far as preparing for yourself and family and friends...I prepare for my family and suggest to others that they may wish to consider doing the same...you would be surprized at how many people are open to the suggestion. There is so much more to say... Kevin

I did read it and it sparked this passage inmy head... 19They will throw their silver into the streets, and their gold will be an unclean thing. Their silver and gold will not be able to save them in the day of the LORD's wrath. They will not satisfy their hunger or fill their stomachs with it, for it has made them stumble into sin. 20They were proud of their beautiful jewelry and used it to make their detestable idols and vile images. Therefore I will turn these into an unclean thing for them.21I will hand it all over as plunder to foreigners and as loot to the wicked of the earth, and they will defile it.22I will turn my face away from them, and they will desecrate my treasured place; robbers will enter it and desecrate it. 23

I didn't read it that way at all, and it does make one wonder... I think one of the alarming things about this is the fact that natural disastears like this also help the spread and mutatioin of disease as water and living conditioins worsen. This coupled with the possible Bird Flu situation in Indonesia.... One of the things that seems to be missing in modern christianity is the wrath of God...and while Jesus does teach us to love others...when he returns people will die, and some will be condemned. And yes this can be used to reach out to those poor people in love...and to show the love of God. kevin

In all fairness...I was almost with them at least as far as the human organ issue went...although it did seem rather like a body farm...it was when they made the comment about the human brain cells in these new creatures that I went ... that and the comment that this MIGHT raise some ethical concerns. Sometimes people don't seem to realize just because you can do something doesn't mean that you should, or that you have the "right" to do something... Kevin

...other than Nebula's original post stated:

Does anyone know how these two fit in with the new pope... 111. The next pope "Gloria Olivae" Translated: The Glory of the Olive 112. The last pope! "Petrus Romanus" Translated: Peter the Roman Kevin

I am a big Clive Cussler reader, but this movie snuck out on me... I have been waiting to see it... thanks for the heads up. Kevin

The movie you are thinking of is Logan's Run with Michael York... The movie used to be science fiction... I am glad to hear that something was done for this poor lady... Kevin

Actually, if a tsunami were going to hit California I am more inclined to believe it would be the result of an Earthquake off the coast. This is not to say that the tsunami theory is false...are we really that far along in prophecy that the three days of night are coming? I believe the meteor would result in fallout obscuring the sun, moon and stars... Kathleen Keating had an "interesting " book that dealt with all this several years ago called the FINAL WARNING. Kevin
