Thanks for the heads-up on Revelation, Gibo.

"And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them." Revelation 9:16

"And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared" Revelation 16:12

Nostradamus is similarly verbose on the topic.

"In the year 1999, and seven months, from the sky will come the great King of Terror. He will bring back to life the great king of the Mongols. Before and after War reigns happily" (PON, p. 417)

He reminds us of Judgment Day:

"An revolu du grand nombre septiesme
Apparoistra au temps Jeux d'Hecatombe,
Non esloigne du grand cage milliesme
Que les entres sortiront de leur tombe."

"The year has revolved to the great seventh number
It will appear in the time of the games of Hecatomb
Not far from the great age millennium
When it enters, they will come out of their tomb."

He may have been wrong about the date though.

Here he has another go, using Mabus, the third anti-christ as the marker:

"Mabus then will soon die, there will come
A horrible undoing of people and animals:
At once vengeance one will see vengeance,
One hundred hands, thirst, famine, when the comet will run."

It's a bit of a toss-up, really, which of these sources provides the more articulate, credible and convincing prediction.

They sound eerily similar though, don't they?

The difference between the Bible and nostradamus is that the Holy Spirit inspired men to write The Word. Christians know this because they have The Holy Spirit lving within. In 1963 I think it was Mao reckoned he could put 200,000,000 soldiers out anyday he wanted to. China quietly improved on the situation in the years that followed. All thats left is... get rid of America. Both of the "gang of two" that Russia and China are work on that today. The yanks know I believe. Thats why we have to pray that the USA survives and that Australia is ready.

But of course, Gibo, how silly of me.

>>The difference between the Bible and nostradamus is that the Holy Spirit inspired men to write The Word. Christians know this because they have The Holy Spirit lving within.<<

Nevertheless, you have to admit that it is remarkable how similar - Holy Spirit or no Holy Spirit - the two sets of predictions are.

How would you tell them apart, Gibo, in a blind taste test? Neither is particularly specific, after all.

I have asked this before, in a different context. Why is it so necessary that deities only converse with humans through intermediaries like Moses, Jesus or Mohammed?

Wouldn't life be so much simpler if they made themselves just a little more accessible?

China is creaking under the strain of change. You've got farmers rioting over land ownership and the urban middle classes rioting over pollution. Different parts of China speak different languages, the South has all the water and the north has all the sand.

The place is a powderkeg. Oh sure as far as short term gain is concerned it's Shangri-La but long term it's not a safe bet for stability. It's hard for me to see the Chinese army marching anywhere when they have to keep the army watching the people (with the possible exception of Eastern Siberia). Now that would be World War 3.

A blind taste test?
Well if you confess the sin to God and ask Jesus into your life as Lord and Saviour, God will send His Spirit and He will confirm the truth of The Word.
The Bible says the test of a true prophet of God is if all of his prophecies come to pass with absolute accuracy.
Nostradamus seems to have floundered in this area as I recall.
God speaks to heaps of people.
If you press Him He will speak to you.
As for the old vessels God used like Moses. He had to appear to someone, so the someone would go and do what He wanted.
Mohammed belongs to the other side.
Mohammed wasnt into a doctrine of love like Jesus. He was a false prophet and you can see it in Islams works today. He was a murderer and in one case had a woman drawn and quartered by horses. God didnt use him.
As for Jesus...He was the Son sent to die for our sins. He was the special mouthpiece. Its all to do with the shedding of blood to cover sins. The old testament animals, then the Perfect Son.

You're quite mad, aren't you?
