OH MANNNN!!! That nutcase, Hal Lindsey is still spouting insanity. remember his Late Great planet Earth? He is also good friends with that other crackpot Henry Makow, who says everything that is not Right Wing hysteria is CIA, which includes the 60s, LSD, The Beatles, Woman's Rights, Environmentalists, Gays, and Antiwar Protesters.

Let's start with your arrogance that only YOU are right and that nobody else,
especially known prophecy experts have any clue about the end times.
Known Prophecy experts? (LOL) More like known con artists. You seem to define arrogance as anyone who dares to contradict your “known prophecy experts”. But the arrogance is on your "prophecy expert"’s side. I have every right to tell the truth and express my own opinion. If you don’t like it, then create your own blog to parrot Hal Lindsey’s opinions all you want. But don't confuse Hal Lindey's selective interpretations of prophecy with the word of God. Contradicting Hal Lindsey is NOT the same thing as contradicting God. What offends me are ignorant people who never learned how to think for themselves, and who resent anybody who does.
For your information, nobody ever said Hal Lindsey's website was going to save
them. But he has been following events closely for decades since he wrote his
best seller "Late Great Planet Earth," and he interprets the Bible in viewof
current events,
That’s exactly right – his interpretations keep changing as current events keep changing. That’s what make him a false prophet.
He predicted 30 years ago that the Soviet Union would play the key role – but now that there is no Soviet Union, he says it will be Islamic fundamentalism. He said 30 years ago while Nasser was still alive that Egypt would spearhead a pan-Arabic, Anti- Israeli movement. But now that Egypt has signed a treaty with Israel and they are living in relative peace, he no longer makes that claim. Thirty years ago there was a 10 nation European Union that he predicted would play a major role. Today there are 25 member nations, and yet you still pretend that he knows what he's talking about.
Lindsey has been wrong about everything. But since there are a lot of Christians in this country who don’t want to see what’s currently going on with Bush and the Antichrist in their own backyard, he has aquired quite a large following. His primary role is to help keep people like yourself in denial.
Even to this day, Lindsey’s only real interest in Biblical prophecy is as a way to make money. It is telling and very important to point out some of Lindey's latest prophecies. Because more recently, Hal Lindsey has even stooped so low as to use Biblical prophecy as a way of promoting oil company stock. Lindsey was intimately connected with an oil wildcatting scheme in Israel called the “Zion Oil and Gas Company”.
One of the members of the board of directors was his own cousin, a man who is also a director of Hal Lindsey's ministries, named Ralph Devore. Devore was trying to raise some start-up money in Texas, and he wrote that :
"I personally believe that over 90% of the shares that have been purchased from
our current IPO are due in some way to Hal [Lindsey]'s TV reporting on Zion's
oil exploration activities.”
Lindsey used his prophecy website to promote the wildcatting scheme, and to assure his many followers that Biblical prophecies indicated that oil would be found at a particular location in Israel, and that they should all rush to get in on the ground floor. Lindey wrote on April 1, 2004 that:
"Moses proclaimed blessings on Jacob's sons just before he died. He
predicted concerning Asher: Asher is most blessed of sons; let him be favored by
his brothers, and let him dip his foot in OIL.– Deuteronomy 33:24 The land allotted
to Asher looks like a leg with a foot. Its toe points straight at the crown of
Joseph's head. Zion Oil's leases are directly under where Asher'stoe points.
Coincidence? If it were anywhere other than Israel, I would say itis merely
coincidence. But here we are dealing with a nation of miracles in the crosshairs
of God's prophetic Word. “
You can read more about all this at
blogs.salon.com/0003494/2005/02/05.htmlMen like Hal Lindsey aren’t experts in Biblical prophecy – they are experienced con men always out for a dishonest buck. They are the worst kind of perverters of holy scripture, and I strongly resent his name even being mentioned here. Those who buy into his end time prophecies, will eventually find themselves drilling for oil on the lake of fire.
not because he's obsessed about wanting everyone to believe some crack potideas
on numerology like you.
The Hebrew alphabet is based upon a numerological system, and it was the author of Revelation who gave us the number 666 as a way of identifying the Antichrist. So if you and Hal Lindsey think St. John is a crackpot, then is a mystery to me why you are so interested in the book of Revelation.
Things he wrote in that book have come to be since, just as the Bible said
theywould and his interpretation has been correct to date.
You are absolutely wrong. According to his first book, Jesus should have returned by now. He has been wrong about everything.
Stephan, I know you believe your are correct about Bush and America, but the
evidence of the EU's rising at such a fast pace now is beyond dispute, and
theydo indeed have a strong military now that is growing bigger everyday!
You seem disconnected from reality. Why are you lying and pretending that Europe is a potential world Empire, when everyone in the world knows that the United States is the only superpower and world empire? Unlike you, I am not presenting some harebrained theory – I am presenting the hard, cold facts. Why don’t you face the facts, and tell the truth? The Bible says there will be seven total world empires, not eight. Are you saying that the Bible is in error – and that there will be a total of eight world empires instead of seven? Because that’s what would have to happen even if your crackpot theory panned out.
How do you explain the fact that the United States is the only world empire today – and the first true world empire since Rome? Even if you fantasize that Americans are all going to be raptured sometime in the future, it doesn’t change the fact that America already is THE world empire today. I present the way things actually are, and you counter with some lame scenario that might come true only if we all pretend that what has already happened never happened.
The facts are, the EU has no real military force of its own. Each national government has overall command of forces contributing to any EU forces . It was envisaged that these EU forces would act as part of a UN force, or in independent humanitarian operations such as Kosovo, where the US would not want to become involved. Both the US and Western Europe believed it would strengthen NATO by providing better co-operation and co-ordination. As such, the EU is basically the weak sister of NATO in terms of a military alliance.
NATO is the military alliance of European nations that is still headed and run by the United States and George Bush. Europe is essentially America's ally, and unlike the EU command structure, there are American military bases all over Europe. But if Bush somehow manages to make the Europeans our enemies, it will only be because they are beginning to realize that they have allied themselves with the Antichrist.
The United Sates is spending about $420 billion on defense. All the members of the EU combined spend a total of about $140 Billion. So for the European Union to begin spending as much as the US does on defense, and begin to catch up with where the US is today, they would have to triple what they are currently spending. This would be impossible, given all their budgetary problems, and their strong commitment to social programs. Member states have actually been shrinking their defense budgets rather than increasing them.
The US is able to spend so much on the military because Americans - and especially all the right-wing 'Christians' - really don’t care about poor people or about social justice. In Europe this is not the case. Yet somehow these same bloodthirsty, right-wing 'Christians' in America imagine that they are more righteous, more Christian, and less likely candidates for the Antichrist than the Europeans! It is a strong delusion nourished by false prophecies from false prophets like Hal Lindsey..
Since America was founded as a Christian Nation, it is likely that should
theRapture happen, it would explain why America is not identified as an end
timeplayer as the majority of it's citizens would be gone and America would go
downdrastically. If that happens, it is also easy to see the AC rising out of
the EUto take over as a new world leader.
In the first place, the rapture is a cowardly revenge fantasy, and it will not happen. It was invented by fundamentalists in the 1800's, and no other Christians ever belived it. And in the second place, the EU members are also made up of Christian nations, so your crackpot scenario wouldn’t work even if all the Christians magically disappeared, because most Europeans would disapear also.
The reaping of the harvest symbolizes the gathering of the elect in the final
judgment, while the reaping and treading of the grapes symbolizes the doom of
the ungodly (cf Joel 3:12-13; Isaiah 63:1-6) that will come in Rev 19:11-21.A
10-nation military alliance appeared in Europe. According to Bible prophecy, if
the Antichrist was on his way, this 10-nation alliance had to come first. And,
it did (Daniel 7:7).1999 The first Mr. Europe, Javier Solana, appeared on the
scene to oversee the EU's foreign and security policy. The same year he also
became head over the 10-nation alliance (Daniel 7:8).
The European Union is NOT a 10-nation alliance, it is basically a 25 nation trade partnership. You keep repeating a bald-faced LIE. It might have been a ten nation alliance for a short period back when Lindsay wrote his first book, but like everything else he wrote, he was wrong about the European Union as well, because now it has 25 members, with even more waiting to join. It didn't begin as a 10 nation alliance either - it began as a six nation trade agreement called the European Coal and Steel Community. You will be judged for misleading people and pretending that the EU is a 10 nation alliance when you know that it isn’t. You will also be judged for bearing false wittness against our European neighbors - pretending that they are allied with evil when actually you are.
It is one thing to make an honest mistake and misinterpret scripture. It is another thing to deliberately lie about the facts in order to mislead people concerning scripture. You and Hal Lindesy haven’t simply misread scripture. You have purposely lied and falsified Biblical prophecies as a way of diverting people’s attention from what’s really going on. What Christians in America need to do is take some responsibility for what’s going on in their own country – not only for their own poor, but for all the murder and torture being done in their name right now, in Iraq. But instead, they follow after false prophets who divert their attention and tell them exactly what they want to hear. Why? Because most American fundamentalists worship money and power just like Lindsey does.
Warning: The disciples of Hal Lindsey are not just the dupes of the Antichrist, they are the Antichrist's active and enthusiastic supporters, doing everything they can to lead other Christians astray. It isn’t enough that they themselves are going to hell, they see it as their religious duty to drag as many people as they can down with them.
