"And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and the books were opened. Another book was opened, which was the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books"

Is it just a coincidence that "judgment day" (or so it sounds) falls on the Revelations 2012 in the Bible? I mean, this wouldn't mean much to those who don't believe that something is not going to happen on December 21st 2012, but to those of us that do believe, this is a strong coincidence.

So my second question, do you believe in the ancient prophecies regarding December 21st 2012? What do you believe?

  I believe that there will be an apocalypse for the old way of thinking that is most of the religions. I just hope that in their death throes they don't put a nuclear gun to their head and blow us away with them.
  
  There are some uncanny things happened though, when the flat-earthers were introduced to zero in mathematics, passed across by those deeply educated trouble making Arabs, they fought against it on the grounds that to talk of nothing was to talk of the devil and open a gateway to hell. Well without zero there would be no modern science - so they were right all along. The problem with these predictions is that they always want to include everyone in their hellfire and devastation when it probably is only coming to them.

  Nice post. The Arabs were very well educated and civilised weren't they?
  Amazing how we can wind up with the Taliban and old Arab laws from a start like that.

  You know that the first Crusade was started to protect Christian pilgrims to the Holy Land from... well... people who were a lot less than hospitable.
  
  And pick up a newspaper. If this were an oil war, why has the price of crude gone up? And who roped the US into the current war in Afghanistan?
  
  And why is it that our troops there are not just Christian, but represent every religion and lack thereof.

  I get my history from academic sources. And when the cultured people you refer to as 'less than hospitable' defeated the first attack they spared and quarantined the christian army, and their followers, who had promised to go home when their next lot of ships arrived. When reinforcements arrived on those ships our morally upright christians went straight back to war and managed to win the next city - and of course murdered everyone there. This seems to have been the conduct of the whole sorry mess that we call the crusades.

  Well not really, they encountered a gang of pirates on a divine mission to gain control of Jerusalem and so dominate the whole area of the mid east. This was in response to the arab conquerors which had previously made it all the way into europe, not so long really after The Mongolians did the same. Now we have a gang of pirates on a divine mission to control oil supplies behaving in the same way. Nothing much changes I guess, and the trade religion that is christianity is still in there pretending the opposition is the devil (not you this time earnest) so that the men on the ground can go about killing people with a clear concience.

  It is written Matt 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone."
  
  Matt 24:42 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone."
  
  Matt 24:44 44 "For this reason you be ready too; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will."
  
  And the list goes on so I personally am not going to stress myself out over a date when the world will be coming to an end. If it does there is nothing a single person can do, so why worry about it? It is just another way for Scientists, media etc. to place fear in the hearts of man. I will continue to do what I have always done and that is love and accept people for who they are, I am certain that all of us will still be here Dec. 21,2012 we will wake up as usual on Dec. 22,2012 and the end of the year will come and go as it always does.

  When we read this complete conversation that is recorded in Matthew 24 we will see several things that generally go unnoticed.
  First of which is that this is a PRIVATE conversation between Jesus and four of the disciples.
  When Jesus said that they will take some of YOU before the synagogue he was talking to two of the disciples that was standing before him.
  Jesus was describing A great tribulation that these four disciples were going to go through.
  "Verily I say unto YOU this generation shall not pass till all these things be fulfilled, but no one knows the day or hour"
  
  We gotta quit misinterpretation the word of God if we want to understand these things that he said.

In 326 the Roman Empire established the Universal Church.
In 380 this Religion was declared as the one and only religion of the Roman Empire.
It eventually acquired leverage over the Emperors.
It eventually became known as the Holy Roman Empire.
It declared war on Islam calling it the Holy War.

This war has never really ended.
When the sixth vial is poured out (Rev. 16:13) this war is rekindled.
Many believers interpret this verse in prophesy to be saying that the dragon, beast and false prophet to be co-conspirators when it does not say that. I believe that they are advisories.
Christianity and Islam have been divided between true and false doctrines.
It is these false doctrines that will eventually bring about the final battle.

And for reasons of my own I think that this will become evident between 2012 and 2015

I believe that the truth can be found in Prophesy.
This is the reason that it was given.
There are no true denominations of the faith in the one True God. The true and faithful and the false pretenders can be found in most any church or mosque.
Jesus taught a personal relationship with the father.

I believe that a time comparison is given in the book of Daniel that equates a prophetic timeline with time on earth.
This timeline equates 42 months as being equal to approx 1642 years. I think that this (approx.) 1642 years began in 359.

Because we do not know for sure when Jesus was crucified; And exactly when during the first year of Darius that the 62 weeks began this is only an estimate. A week could be equal to anywhere between 9.1 and 9.2 years.
somewhere between 1638 and 1656 years

Jerami's answer ... I know nothing ,, I sometimes think.
If there are many doctrines of one truth can they all be true?
It is possible that doctrine in its self is false by nature?
As far as anyone being destroyed I don't know nOthing!
When the "LIGHT" comes I suppose that every one will have to see it or poke their own eyes out. ha .
Why did he not give us the light in the first place? I don't know, but I will say this... In my business I have always said that ya don't "KNOW" how to do anything right till you have first done it wrong. That is the difference between thinking ya know how to do something and "KNOWING" that ya do.

  When I say RELIGION is the beast I am not talking about everyone that goes to Church or mosque. But Division and doctrine.
  God Gave the beast 42 months to blaspheme and he then sent his TWO witnesses down to the earth for 1260 days. 42 months is an approximation where 1260 days are an exact amount of time. These two witnesses are sent to these "Religions" to keep some similarity of equilibrium.

  The two witnesses - what are they, or who are they ?
  
  What do you make of the good and bad on the same pew ?
  
  Can you elaborate on the meaning of blaspheme here ?
  
  I actually quite like the reference of good and bad sitting on the same pew, for me that would be in line with reasonable philosophy - there is only bad because there is good etc. Which I do ascribe to.
  
  Maybe I should mention at this point that I think the ancient writings that have been hijacked by religions were maybe a kind of philosophy of its day and are a meta language. The trouble with any meta language is that it is easily read as real - like the metaphysical idea of moderating our behaviour as though there were a god would be mis-read by some as there actually being one. If you get my drift.

  Who are the two witnesses? I don't know for sure. I know what is written that back then it was customary to have two witnesses to legalize a verbal contract and these two witnesses are said to be standing before the throne.I think that these two were witnesses of Gods covenant with Abraham. And after this covenant was replaced with the New Covenant their Job was finished. And a few hundred years later they were assigned an other Job. To stand before the two "Religions".
  To keep balance. To keep faith in God alive.

  Gods covenant with Abraham was the first and the next (and I guess the last) one will be soon - I think that is what you say? So they the witnesses are not bringing information they are just the go-between to witness the new covenant ?

  It is my understanding that the Covenant with Abraham ended a little over a hundred years after the crucifixion of Jesus when that Hebrew Nation ceased to exist. With the New covenant Gentiles were adopted into the Old covenant making a new one.
  As far as the two witnesses are concerned It would make sense to me if one went to each religion.
  or something similar to that.

if you look under the numbers 666 you see the word FOX. yes Michael J. Fox is the evil anti-Elvis as prophesied by Mojo Nixon and the Toad Liquors in his song "Elvis Is Everywhere" and we are all moving toward greater Elvisness. fear Michael J. Fox! his supposed bout with Parkinson's is just a ruse. he will be miraculously healed and all the world will mistakenly fall down at his feet to worship him! the time is near!

  Not mine ! I am just asking the questions. I don't believe - I know that we don't know jack-shit about very much. I do read the ancient Greeks philosophy, and the Romans and the new stuff and I believe that the books of religion are actually scraps of the philosophy recorded from the oral stuff of pre-writing. Like Homer's Iliad and Beowulf were written from the oral story. They all have much the same weight from this distance and they are all just information. I have found since coming to China that my recently acquired Critical Theory developed in the last few decades are very similar to the Tao philosophy from around 300 BC. This is only interesting in as much as it helps to understand how people think and often the further back you go (maybe when the world was less complicated) the more clever people seem to have been, and they have a lot to tell us, we still use Logic and our politicians use rhetoric and there may still be people in Platonic relationships. I am not above looking at anything, my own take on this is that the big danger is that it is a self-fulfilling prophecy. There was some article, possibly itself of the urban myth variety, that Bush was (is) fond of numerology. The frightening thing is that he was in place because of the Christian right - and he just might be acting on the numbers and myths and legends and maybe pointing us directly toward some religious inspired goal of defeating Islam or whatever.

  A pole reversal happens on average every 300,000 years. We haven't had one for over 780,000 years. The north pole is currently moving north at an average speed of 40 km a year, and compass needles in Africa are drifting about 1 degree per year. Basically all hell would break out on Earth if there was a reversal or if we are in the process of one. I can't give too much of my Hub away.

  the fact is that the earth's rotational axis is very stable although it does shift. after the tsunami that hit the indian ocean in 2004(?) the earth titled approximately 0.1 inches and the earth's day shortened by 3/millionths of a second. the magnetic pole may be shifting but it has nothing to do with climatic change as far as i know.

  Everything being relative and all.. It seems as though everything is finely balanced, Earthquakes relieving pressure at one location would then increase the pressure at another location causing balance to shift causing a pole shift causing more platonic shift causing more polar shift etc...
  
  It seems logical that eventually there would be a drastic polar shift eliminating all of the pressure between the tectonic plates until the rotation of the earth combined with our orbit around the sun would start the process all over again.
  Can anyone really know how often this cycle may repeat itself if it does at all ?

This thread caught my eye because last week I was reading through revelations. I don't know how often I say this on this forum but I am not a christian; I am just prepared to accept that anything is possible until I am shown concrete evidence otherwise. Anyways; the coincidence (considering that I haven't picked up a bible since many years ago when I insisted on reading it to make an informed decision) struck me as odd and here I am.

Today I was reading a little more...Anyone that has read my hub on science and a 'creator' will know that I have the belief that one day the two will intertwine; so I was naturally interested in wether or not these seven stages of the apocalypse described in the new testament could be explained scientifically as perhaps a natural disaster or epidemic. I found that it could. you can check out the facts for yourself but once you strip away all the old school words and understandings and think about how revelations describes the plight of the human race during the apocalypse: it might just be possible. An asteroid or comet could crash to earth and cause the corruption of the water and the fires that burn a third of the land...A pestilence could strike in the aftermath - a supervolcano could open into an abyss and belch out smoke that blocks out the sun - there could be a nuclear war that leaves the planet devastated...

Anything is possible.

  That could be true concerning the beasts that are mentioned in Revelation, but the references to some of these beasts were interpreted in the book of Daniel by Gabriel as representing diffrent kingdoms that was given dominion over that Hebrew Nation that ceased to exist around 138 AD.
  I would think that there would be some correlation between the books of Daniel and Revelation.

What does 'the dead' refer to in this book of revelation. Context needed.

Going lateral and not literal, I see the dead as sleepers. Meaning those that are under the influence of their conditioning and have no concept of freewill outside of this conditioning.

Hopefully 2012 will see a big awakening for all those who think they see, but see nothing. It's not a physical death. Hopefully it's the death of the small minded.

If the rapture does happen, I hope all the silly people are taken so the rest of us can get on with living. Oh, and please include the pharmaceutical companies, CEO's of the American Banks and Monsanto. Amen!

I think 2012 is misunderstood as far as it's interpretation is concerned.

When you look at the planetary alignment it is a phenomenal force that's accessible. I'm of the opinion that it was intended to be a great opportunity for humans to step up, not to bail out.

The Mayans held great wisdom and mathematical talent in seeing this alignment was going to happen. So much talk about death and destruction. When you see the human condition as being steered by the consciousness of us all collectively, this point in time was intended to be a phenomenal opportunity for unity. If you look at where we stand now, we are a joke Again I see it is not a physical death but the opportunity for great change in everyone.

Wake up people. Don't drink the cool-aid, or that diet coke. Sell your shares in Nutrasweet and tell Donald Rumsfeld to be wary of rotting in hell for poisoning the world with aspartame.

Hopefully it will be a time of self revelation where you ask "Am I dead to my own spirit, or am I Living my fullest life." And do you really know what living is? Or are you drugged to the eyeballs from processed foods that you have no real way of knowing what the truth is?

"And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and the books were opened. Another book was opened, which was the book of life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books" The dead drank too much cool-aid and were numbed to their own selves.
