The Day of the LORD is at Hand is causing a firestorm in the religious arena, challenging traditional beliefs held by many that the United States is strangely absent from Bible prophecy.
Benjamin Baruch states emphatically that the United States is described directly in Bible prophecy and that the we are now living in the last days of America.
Benjamin Baruch's message is unique as Benjamin has been able to hear the audible voice of God throughout his life.
In 1996, Benjamin was managing money on Wall Street and spent over a year in prayer seeking guidance from God on when to exit the stock market. Shortly after Benjamin's fortieth birthday, God answered. In a series of visions and audible revelations from God, Benjamin was shown the future of America.
Many of Benjamin Baruch's prophetic revelations have been documented by eye witnesses including his prophecy in the Summer of 2001 that the United States was about to be attacked with planes from United and American airlines, an attack which would mark the beginning of what would become World War III.
Benjamin's book presents a clear understanding into the sealed prophecies of the Bible including a detailed analysis of the future events which will shake our nation including a stock market collapse, nuclear attack on america, martial law and concentration camps for "enemy combatants" a.k.a. Christians, Jews and Patriots
Operation Garden Plot:
Interesting, considering we are already in the beginnings of WW IV.
De Bunko Code....
/sarcasm
World War 111? huh?
Now we know what our poor missionaries should do. They'll be rich in no time.
No doubt Harley. As my preacher put it yesterday "Too many of us seek the specific will of God for our lives while completely ignoring the plainly revealed will in the Bible"
Yes, but what is that audible voice saying to him? "Benjamin, sales are falling. You need to go on another radio show!"
I keep in my "ready reference" library Criswell's 1968 book CRISWELL PREDICTS - Your Future from Now to the Year 2000. Criswell's claim to fame (besides his featured roles in all those Edward D. Wood Jr. films) was his predicting the Arab-Israel war, Ronald Reagan's governorship of California, and the assasinations of Martin Luther King, and John F. Kennedy. The back cover of said book says, in large print, "87% OF CRISWELL'S PREDICTIONS HAVE COME TRUE".
You simply have to read the book to understand how funny all this is. Cannibalism and zombies. Denver turning to jelly by a force from outer space. New York City will be a dustbowl and yet also 30 feet underwater. Lake Michigan will be drained in 1978, to make way for construction. Clamp-on bikinis for men. NOTHING Criswell wrote in the book came true by the year 2000 (and since he begins his book with the prediction that the end of the world would occur on August 18, 1999, I'm pretty confident they have no chance of coming true in the 21st century, either). I daresay the other things I mentioned were probably the ONLY things Criswell ever predicted that came true. Keeping the book in my quick reference library is my little note-to-self reminder that the Deuteronomy 18:22 test is purely a pass-fail one.
It's going to be a great deal of fun to see where Benjamin Baruch is a decade from now.
FWIW here's my prophecy: Jesus reigns with peace, righteousness, and justice.
What am I supposed to do with this information? I already had the biblical admonition to be prepared for Christ's imminent return. What does this add to that?
The testimony of one Jeffrey Nyquist: He [Baruch] dreamt he was camping in Northern California. It was in the morning and he saw two commercial jets streak by, flying very low as if on the attack. He called his friends out to see this unusual sight. Then two more jets (four total) streaked by, headed in another direction. A short while later he said that he saw several mushroom clouds in the distance. I remember him asking me if civilian airliners could be used to deliver nuclear attacks. I told him this made no sense and that I would have to think about it. He was convinced that civilian airliners would be used to attack the United States and that something terrible was going to happen. I could not understand how this could be true, since civilian airliners had never been used as bombs, or to deliver bombs, in the past. This was a few weeks before 9/11.
It always amazes me how often it is when God allegedly gives a "dream" or "vision" that He cannot seem to get the details of the facts straight. How come in this fraud's dream he wasn't camping in Massachusetts or Pennsylvania where the jets actually passed overhead? Perhaps God didn't know the details when He supposedly gave the vision.
Stoning is too good for these folks who prey on the poor and gullible.
tHANKS.

Your lack of understanding, knowledge and experience with the prophetic is showing again.
Also, your lack of Scripture.
The Pharisees knew the prophecies about the Messiah coming as a suffering servant by heart. Yet, they missed those details by a miliion miles.
Just as you are missing long lists of prophecies and their details about the end times.
And that's from Scripture.
I assume that you still believe Scripture is the Word of God?
God chooses to be cryptic more often than not. He also chooses to mix symbolism with literal fairly often.
I personally think it has to do with Him hiding things from those with flawed hearts toward Him while making them clear enough for those with ears to hear and authentic hearts toward Him.
Then, we can factor in the spiritual wax in people's spiritual 'ears.' You might conceivably know a lot about the latter phenomenon so evident on the part of so many.
But, hey, I'm sure you'll do great at holding up your end of the naysayers' cart. Though, I wouldn't advise it.
I can't find a single Scriptural case where naysayers were EVER on God's side about anything in any context.
Thanks.
Either you figure it out, or I'll solve this problem in the only way available to me.
