Lost Ark of Covenant?



Has 'Temple' author discovered location of lost Ark of Covenant?

There has been much speculation on the location of the ark sense it was lost some 5,000 years ago. World Net Daily has an interesting piece about it, and a new book by David Flynn

In "Temple at the Center of Time: Newton's Bible Codex Deciphered and the Year 2012," by David Flynn, a book that has skyrocketed up the best-seller charts before its official release later this month, says his studies of the Temple Mount strongly suggest the Ark will be found at Mount Nebo in Jordan.

The discovery would be the greatest archeological find ever – as has been suggested in popular movies such as "Raiders of the Lost Ark.

In "Temple at the Center of Time," Flynn makes the case that the Temple Mount, the home of the Jewish temples, was not just a place of religious worship. It is also is a roadmap to future events – a kind of prophetic landmark whose significance is only now revealed through the development of satellite imagery.

The book asserts it has "deciphered Isaac Newton’s greatest paradox: None other than 'the unified field theory' of Bible prophecy. Jerusalem

According to the Bible, the greatest prophet of all time was Moses, which states, "And there arose not a prophet (neba) since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face." Ironically, according to the Bible, Mount Nebo was the site of the death of Moses.

The Hebrew words nobe, meaning "high place," and nahab, meaning "to hollow out," "gate," or "pupil of the eye," also correlate with the location for the resting place of the ark in a "hollow cave" on Mount Nebo, described in 2 Maccabees, says Flynn.

Mount Nebo is 25.20 nautical miles due East of Jerusalem – and Flynn finds significance in that distance related to his study of the Temple Mount and its mystical placement "at the center of time and space."

I think Jerusalem is the center of the earth, and it has a special place in God's heart, and in God's eye. Mount Nebo is 25.20 nautical miles due East Jerusalem, and the time is right for the ark to discovered, if it is indeed there. I don't place mach stock in Bible codes and numerology, but I do certain numbers and patterns are significance. The Jewish year has 360 days in it, and every seventh year is special; a year of Jubilee.

And as one of the poster, at Prophecy Fellowship, ConservPride, pointed out:

The article doesn't indicate what the significance in that number is, but... 360 * 7 = 2520

And the Bible says when Jesus comes back, he will enter Jerualem through the East Gate.
I wonder....

China confiscates Bibles

China confiscates Bibles from American Christians
Aug 17, 2008 17:16

Chinese customs officials confiscated more than 300 Bibles on Sunday from four American Christians who arrived in a southwestern city with plans to distribute them, the group's leader said.

The Bibles were taken from the group's checked luggage after they landed at the airport in the city of Kunming, said Pat Klein, head of Vision Beyond Borders. The group, based in Sheridan, Wyoming, distributes Bibles and Christian teaching materials around the world to "strengthen the persecuted church," according to its Web site.

The group arrived in China on Sunday and had intended to distribute the Bibles to people in the city, Klein told the AP in a telephone interview while still at the airport.

"I heard that there's freedom of religion in China, so why is there a problem for us to bring Bibles?" Klein ..

And a poster, Caver, pretty much echoed my thoughts

"Whoa, didn't we just hear a few weeks ago about China being ready to distribute Bibles to the Olympics guest who wanted one. Now, ....., well this is a new twist on the public face.

Ya gotta wonder, do they realize just how paranoid and confused they seem to the rest of the world?"

I wonder...

Let's take a look at the news, today.

Let's take a look at the news, today.

Presidential hopefuls Barack Obama and John McCain were tested about their views on a wide range of topics last night during a forum hosted by well known author and pastor, Rick Warren. Here's a summary of how they responded.

Now there is trio I would not want to be marooned on desert island with. Two of then are as slick as snakes, and the third one is the snake. I hear Rick Warren is going to be on Larry King tonight. That is the kiss of death to me. Larry King is just about as lost and wrong headed as a person can be, in my opinion.

Good for him!

But I keep thinking about China's roll in the end times, especially with Iran's President Ahmadinejad praying for the reappearance of the Lord of Time. (the Imam Mahdi) You know the Bible mentions, in Revelation, that the anti-Christ will try to change the times. I wonder if there is a connection there....

But there are more sinister things afoot.....

Tehran, August 14, IRNA
Iran-President-Mahdaviat
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday prayed for reappearance of the Lord of Time (May God Hasten His Advent).
]Ahmadinejad, who is well interested to propagate the philosophy of Mahdaviat, a belief in reappearance of Imam Mahdi (May God Hasten His Advent) cherished by Shia Muslims, elaborated on the philosophy in the Fourth International Seminar on Mahdaviat Doctrine.

He said that the philosophy of Mahdaviat has focused on virtue of mankind and accomplishment of humanity.

He said that the modern world is in dire need of justice promised by reappearance of Imam Mahdi.

Muslims believe that Imam Mahdi (May God Hasten His Reappearance) will bring justice to humanity by his advent.
Ahmadinejad said that nobody is satisfied with the current situation in the world, owing to the chaos emanated from brutal acts of illegitimate governments.

Turning to Iraq as a pattern for crimes perpetrated by the present rulers, he noted that criminals have assaulted the civilized country under the pretext of fighting weapons of mass destruction, but they continue with occupation, in the war-torn country although the dictatorship has gone.

Ahmadinejad said that the ambition of establishing the fake Zionist regime had roots in a historical desire by western powers to dominate the Muslim nations in the Middle East.

"The UN Security Council, which is tasked with creating tranquility in the world, has turned into means for fomenting differences in nations and paving the way for the occupying and looting powers," he said.

He said that the bullying powers misuse the international community and organizations to press ahead with their own illegal agenda.

The Hal Lindsey Report, August 8. is up

I have not seen seen it yet, but will see it as soon as I get this report done. It is always good, and I think this one is especially relevant in times.

Russia threatens nuclear attack on Poland over US missile shield deal
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A top Russian general on Friday said Poland's deal with the United States to set up parts of a missile defense shield on Polish territory lays it open to a possible military strike, a Russian news agency reported.
Col-General Anatoliy Nogovitsyn, deputy chief of the general staff, told Interfax that Russian military doctrine would allow for a possible nuclear strike.

I knew that was coming. Russia has been having a hissy fit over that for a while now. The Bear has come out of hibernation and she is hungry,

And now something on the lighter side...

A prayer group in Washington DC is claiming the credit for the recent sharp drop in the US price of petrol.
Rocky Twyman, 59, a veteran community campaigner, started Pray At The Pump meetings at petrol stations in April.
Since then, the average price of what the US calls gasoline has fallen from more than $4 a gallon to $3.80.

Prayer is good. Low prices are good. Right on!
