THE APPEARANCE OF THE UNITED STATES WILL CHANGE [HMMMM Yeah...]

The Appearance Of The United States Will Change

Stephen Hanson

Jan. 30, 2005

[21] For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now--and never to be equaled again. [22] If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. Matt. 24

“There is a place that you can run to and hide when the storms come upon this world. There is a place that you will be sheltered from the storms. I tell you that you can run to Me when the storms of this life rage upon you. For there are great storms coming. They will be unequaled since the time of this world. I tell you that in the coming months and years the United States map will change. For the map of the United States will be changed because of catastrophic events. This will be because of various earthquakes and nuclear attacks. “

(The Lord showed me a picture of the state of Florida. I was looking at it and then the shape of it was then transformed into the shape of a gun. It was as if the panhandle section was then the barrel of a gun. It then seemed that the state itself had become broken in half. The Lord then showed me a picture of the United States. I was shown the state of Texas and it was broken in a piece where the bottom half of it was now submerged. It had broken off from about where the panhandle section was in the state. The gulf of Mexico had come into most of it and had totally changed it. Then I looked at the rest of the continent, and saw that the northeastern section of the America was being curled up like a paper. The continent was rolled up along the northeastern edges, and along the coastlines down to Florida, some 200 or miles inland. This was also on the western half of America as well, except that California was not to be seen. )

Personally, I consider it a fact that great earth changes are coming to the whole planet, including the USA. I don't know how accurate Stephen is on this one. The TX prediction was a bit new and drastic to my expectations.

I've been convinced that the Florida prediction--at least in terms of the lower half of Florida--I've been convinced for 2-3 decades that that would come true. Wouldn't probably take toooo extremely huge a quake etc. for that to occur.

Have been convinced that major coastal changes were coming to the LEFT Coast for at least 3 decades. I don't know if Phoenix will become a seaport as some New Age types have predicted but I sure expect California to be mostly islands.

I expect the Seattle area to be greatly altered somehow.

I think Oregon hangs somewhat in the balance as may Seattle--the degree of devastation depending on the degree of spiritual renewal.

This thread:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1335656/posts

Is one of the best summaries I've seen of the not too hidden press toward a global government. Certainly that crew will also try to make the most of such disasters toward such changes. It still boggles my mind that anyone could read Biblical prophecy and SERIOUSLY, FAIR-MINDEDLY check out those rather abundant sources in the organization's own house organ publications--it boggles my mind that anyone could read even 1/10th of a represenative sample of such and deny the Biblical predictions for a global government in our era--the era that saw Israel become a nation again in a day as specifically literally predicted in the Old Testament--HOW CAN ANY RATIONAL, FAIR-MINDED PERSON READ SUCH AND DENY the reality of the end times and that we are in the midst of them??? Just boggles my mind.

Anyway--food for thought and prayer, at least.

Certainly the 91st Psalm is best our focus about such things. That and Lifting up Christ and His Cross to the hurting world around us.

So many masses are so little prepared--in their hearts or otherwise--even in Christendom.

Have mercy, Lord, God. Draw us deeper into Yourself as rapidly as possible! In Jesus' Name.

While the lord was showing you all these pictures of Florida and Texas did he or she by chance show you a picture of Jacksonville and mention who would win the Super Bowl?

Hopefully this will help ease the traffic situation. ;~D

Uhhhh,

in a word,

No.

BTW, I don't know that a lot of this came in pictures. Just a growing conviction. Perhaps there have been flashes of pics now and then. But I haven't even written any such down.

Considering how few have amphibious cars or subs . . . I think that the idea that it would clear a lot of the traffic congestion away is a safe one.

LOL

I suspect there will be--certainly could be--worse disasters in that area than the destruction of microslop.

I did, however, have an honestly helpful tech experience recently . . . of course at $35 on my nickel!

But it was at least a switch to actually get some effective help from them.

Hmm...Except for the Texas part, there doesn't seem to be a heck of a lot of downside here.

PELICAN
pel'-kan (qa'ath; Latin Pelecanus onocrotalus Septuagint reads pelekan, in Leviticus and Psalms, but has 3 other readings, that are rather confusing, in the other places)): Any bird of the genus Pelecanus. The Hebrew qi' means "to vomit." The name was applied to the bird because it swallowed large quantities of fish and then disgorged them to its nestlings. In the performance of this act it pressed the large beak, in the white species, tipped with red, against the crop and slightly lifted the wings. In ancient times, people, seeing this, believed that the bird was puncturing its breast and feeding its young with its blood. From this idea arose the custom of using a pelican with lifted wings in heraldry or as a symbol of Christ and of charity.

http://www.reference-guides.com/isbe/P/PELICAN/

Revelation 3:14-19

14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

 

Object Data: NGC 7000, the North America Nebula, is located in the constellation of Cygnus. It is a very large area of emission nebulosity extending some 2.5 degrees to the east of Deneb. It was discovered in the early 1890s during experiments into wide field astrophotography. Several areas of nebulosity can be seen surrounding NGC 7000 including IC 5070, the Pelican Nebula to the west and IC 5068 to the south. The 'Skull Nebula' can also be seen between the North America and the Pelican nebulae.

Cygnus, the Swan, is visible in the Northern Hemisphere from June through October

Cygnus, the Swan is identified with Cycnus, the son of Mars, was transformed at the river Padus and transported to the sky.

A more popular version of the story is that the swan is Orpheus, who was killed by Achilles at the battle of Troy and placed in the stars near his beloved harp (Lyra).

I have no personal indications and none of others that I trust much.

Personally, I believe it will be in stages--a sequence of very dramatic unprecedented quakes etc. over months and years.

The follow-on quakes in the Sumatra area are unprecedented but some geologist types don't admit it while others are noting it.

Then there's the business of the well in Virginia or West Virginia reported in a thread on FR which a geologist affirmed--the water was rising and falling significantly and startlingly in response to waves from the Sumatran quake on the other side of the planet. Also, in another thread on FR there was another geologist's report about the ground rising an inch or so IN RESPONSE TO THE SUMATRAN quake.

The resident expert geologists on FR have insisted such could not happen. When the threads and facts were pointed out to him, he was totally silent on it--refused to comment.

We shall see. In California--sell.

imho.

I expect something dramatic in the PAC Rim before 60 days after the Sumatran quake are done. I don't know it that's a true hunch or not. It's too very subtle for me to put much stock in but I still tend to expect it.

The best way to change the shape of the U.S. would be to take over Canada. The whole N.American continent would be one. Canada has no army or navy to speak of and best of all the citizens have very little in the way of firearms. (guns to you in Rio Linda). And best of all G.W. Bush would be their president.

Cygnus, aka the asterism Northern Cross.

http://www.ufrsd.net/staffwww/stefanl/myths/cygnus.htm

From post 17:

The 'Skull Nebula' can also be seen between the North America and the Pelican nebulae.

John 19:16-18

16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.
17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:
18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

Here you can see the location of NGC 7000 (North America Nebula) in relationship to Cygnus, or rather the head [of the Northern Cross], alpha Cygnus: Deneb, "tail".

Here's how the appearance of the United States will change sometime in the future:

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 "(16) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (17) Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (18) Wherefore comfort one another with these words."

There is likely a greater percentage of believers in the USA than in most other countries.

There will be changes. I don't go for 'Earth Changes', but it is likely that the earth will eventually once more be in an Ice Age, maybe in another 10,000 years. It might even freeze from pole to pole, and it wouldn't be the first time. In any case we have about 500 million years until it is too hot on earth for plant and animal life to survive, so if we have any long-terms plans we ought to start thinking about that, too.

The comment that maybe nothing will happen or it could go either way ... reminds me of that venerable Christian man several hundred years ago who was the butt of many jokes for living a devout life and for having faith and for fearing the Lord.

He said that if he was wrong, the worst said of him would be he was a good and decent man who loved his family and had lived a just life.

If he was correct, he would go to meet his maker having availed himself of the Lord's help and received forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those sanctified by faith and provision for life after death.

The question he posed to the skeptics was what would happen to them if he was right?

The Bible says of ten handmaidens waiting for the bridegroom, nine grew weary and fell asleep and so did not refill their lamps and ran out of oil. When the bridegroom came, they were unprepared.

If it is the End Times, what are you doing to be prepared? Do you have on the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth, the shoes of the gospel, the shield of faith, and the Sword of God which is His word which is a two-edged sword? Is your lamp trimmed and burning and full of oil? Is your life built on sand or on a solid rock? If the Bridegroom of the Ages, the Lord Jesus, is returning to claim His own, will you be one bought with a price, or will He say to you, 'depart from me, I never knew you'?

We can all be great at rationalizing what we want to do anyway.

But this is a pretty hazardous age to give in to such rationalizations when they are contrary to God's Word, goals and priorities.

Thx.

Attractive folks, yours.

Thanks...but I guess we took your thread woefully off-topic. Sorry about that, Quix.

No sweat. I favor relationships far too much to be too fussed up over that rule. Our brief comments were quite fine. Even a subthread within a thread can be tolerable to me for a while.

People who wholesale hijack threads to their own fierce ends relentlessly and ruthlessly are a different matter, however! LOL.

Thanks for your kind words.

Jeremiah 51

33 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: "The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor When it is time to thresh her; Yet a little while And the time of her harvest will come."

34 "Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon Has devoured me, he has crushed me; He has made me an empty vessel, He has swallowed me up like a monster; He has filled his stomach with my delicacies, He has spit me out. 35 Let the violence done to me and my flesh be upon Babylon," The inhabitant of Zion will say; "And my blood be upon the inhabitants of Chaldea!" Jerusalem will say.

36 Therefore thus says the LORD: "Behold, I will plead your case and take vengeance for you. I will dry up her sea and make her springs dry. 37 Babylon shall become a heap, A dwelling place for jackals, An astonishment and a hissing, Without an inhabitant.

38 They shall roar together like lions, They shall growl like lions' whelps. 39 In their excitement I will prepare their feasts; I will make them drunk, That they may rejoice, And sleep a perpetual sleep And not awake," says the LORD.

40 "I will bring them down Like lambs to the slaughter, Like rams with male goats. 41 "Oh, how Sheshach[c] is taken! Oh, how the praise of the whole earth is seized! How Babylon has become desolate among the nations!

42 The sea has come up over Babylon; She is covered with the multitude of its waves. 43 Her cities are a desolation, A dry land and a wilderness, A land where no one dwells, Through which no son of man passes.

44 I will punish Bel in Babylon, And I will bring out of his mouth what he has swallowed; And the nations shall not stream to him anymore. Yes, the wall of Babylon shall fall. 45 "My people, go out of the midst of her! And let everyone deliver himself from the fierce anger of the LORD.

46 And lest your heart faint, And you fear for the rumor that will be heard in the land (A rumor will come one year, And after that, in another year A rumor will come, And violence in the land, Ruler against ruler), 47 Therefore behold, the days are coming That I will bring judgment on the carved images of Babylon; Her whole land shall be ashamed, And all her slain shall fall in her midst.

48 Then the heavens and the earth and all that is in them Shall sing joyously over Babylon; For the plunderers shall come to her from the north," says the LORD. 49 As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, So at Babylon the slain of all the earth shall fall.

50 You who have escaped the sword, Get away! Do not stand still! Remember the LORD afar off, And let Jerusalem come to your mind. 51 We are ashamed because we have heard reproach. Shame has covered our faces, For strangers have come into the sanctuaries of the LORD's house.

52 "Therefore behold, the days are coming," says the LORD, "That I will bring judgment on her carved images, And throughout all her land the wounded shall groan. 53 Though Babylon were to mount up to heaven, And though she were to fortify the height of her strength, Yet from Me plunderers would come to her," says the LORD.

54 The sound of a cry comes from Babylon, And great destruction from the land of the Chaldeans, 55 Because the LORD is plundering Babylon And silencing her loud voice, Though her waves roar like great waters, And the noise of their voice is uttered,

56 Because the plunderer comes against her, against Babylon, And her mighty men are taken. Every one of their bows is broken; For the LORD is the God of recompense, He will surely repay. 57 "And I will make drunk Her princes and wise men, Her governors, her deputies, and her mighty men. And they shall sleep a perpetual sleep And not awake," says the King, Whose name is the LORD of hosts.

Tick tock...
