Conspiracy Theory

The End is Nigh… Well not Quite

1 Comment

Last week saw the global media giving extraordinary news coverage to a Pastor from California. Harold Camping, founder of the Family Radio Worldwide ministry, confidently asserted that the rapture would occur on Saturday May 21st, at around 6pm. Followers of Camping took to the streets with placards says, “Judgement Day May 21st… the Bible Guarantees it” Some of Camping’s followers spent their life savings to promote his “prophesy”. In the mean time atheist groups were loving the coverage, citing it as proof that Christians really are uneducated loonies. Atheists throughout America help Rapture Parties on Saturday evening, rejoicing that Camping, and the wider church had been so discredited. One enterprising atheist in Florida even seized on the opportunity to help worried pet owners: offering to collect them after they had been raptured and care for these left-behind pets, all for an upfront, non-returnable fee of $80.

However, Camping did not stop there, the judgement of the earth was to continue until October 21st when the earth will finally be destroy.

Since May 21st has come and gone, and there are no reports of Christian’s being taken from earth to be with the Lord, Camping has held up his hands and admitted- he got it wrong! (Well kind of, May 21st marked the spiritual beginnings of Judgement.) And the real rapture has been rescheduled for October 21st, on the same day the earth will be engulfed by a massive ball of fire.

As the world wide media reported on Camping, and the world mocked, what damage does these Pastors do to the body of Christ? Will the world listen to true Prophets of God, when they have correct revelation and prophesy?

Jesus never taught us to focus on rapture, he gave us a mission to fulfil, and that involves entering into the anointing of God, and ruling and reigning with Christ over all the works of the devil. Support Prophet TV and learn to walk in the fullness of the life Christ has for you… instead of looking for the quickest way out, our kids need us to do this!

Conflict of Interest on the FCC?

The Federal Communication Commission (FCC) was established to regulate the media, and internet industries, to ensure fairness, competition and right practise.

However recently, serious questions have been asked as to the neutrality of the organisation, with cases of commissioners showing apparent conflicts of interest. The latest and most blatant involves FCC Commissioner Meredith Attwell Bake. She is leaving her position to become a Comcast lobbyist, only four months after she approved the merger of media giants Comcast and NBC Universal.

This has prompted the need for urgent action to be taken to hinder FCC Commissioners leaving their positions in order to take up these lucrative positions in the companies they are meant to be neutrally regulating.

Failure to act and restore confidence in the role of the FCC  could jeopardise future common-sense public policy, such as Net Neutrality or rigorous reviews of future deals, thus stifling consumer choice and competition. American business needs a robust organisation to oversee the sector, especially when deals like the proposed AT&T merger with T-Mobile is looming. Business needs to know there is some sort of strategy to maintain consumer choice whilst the powerful and aggressive Verizon increases it’s market share; and businesses will increasing need to have availability to super-fast broadband at a reasonable price, in order to remain competitive within the global market. With these kind of decisions facing the sector in the immediate future the FCC will need to quickly restore public confidence; and the church needs to begin to pray into these decisions so America will be blessed, and can continue to be a blessing to the nations.

Insanity on Planes?

Across American air space recently there have been number of cases of sudden “insanity” in which passengers, for no real reason, have tried to open exit doors, enter the cockpit, or open windows. It is impossible to open a plane door whilst it is in flight, however the incidences have been a cause for concern for aviation authorities who can find no “real” reason for the occurrences. Although occurrences of this nature do happen on flights, what makes these disturbances different is the fact there have been a cluster of them over a very short time period.

The last incident occurred on May 10th on a flight between Orlando and Boston, when a drunk man suddenly tried to force the exit door open – despite being intoxicated, authorities and fellow passengers cannot explain why he would be prompted to do such a thing. The Bible teaches us not be drunk where in is dissipation, this means we are more open to spirits that would seek to gain a negative influence over us.

On May 8th, on another flight to San Francisco, a man from Yemeni wildly tried to enter the cockpit.

And again on May 8th, a flight to Chicago had to make an emergency landing to deal with a man who tried to open the plane door mid-flight, before being restrained by flight attendants.

The nation of America is seeing many demonic evocations at present. These demonic powers seek to control the actions of individuals in destructive ways. These powers and principalities are found in heavenly places, i.e. in the clouds where planes fly. Prophet TV have seen and dealt with, over many years, situations where demonic power is released and “suddenly” people act “insane” or “out of character”. This is a time America needs the church to wake up to the onslaught of witchcraft attacking this nation and take the authority we have in Christ to overcome these powers and principalities.

First of all let us ask those devastated throughout the mid west “Bible Belt” to forgive spiritual leaders for being stubborn, not listening and learning what God had been trying to teach: to protect our nation from the onslaught.

When a Pastor becomes a limiter God has no choice but to take his friend, the Shepherd home, according to the bible.

Mississippi Flooding, God tries to raise a standard to PROTECT !

Why did Pastor Dave Wilkerson, founder of Times Square Church tragically die in an automobile accident in Texas?

Why did destruction hit the BIBLE BELT?

Can we expect more?

How did the witchcraft show called “WICKED” find it’s home directly across the street from Times Square Church in Manhattan NY continuing to prosper these 8 years?

For those with eyes to see only!

The bible says strike first the Shepherd, so the sheep go to another level of revelation, thus preparing them for the next level, necessary to protect the USA in the days ahead!

Egypt Calls US to back Palestinian State Declaration

Last week a deal was reached in Egypt between Hamas and Fatah. The agreement constituted a reconciliation between the two opposing Palestinian powers. As a consequence of the deal, the new Egyptian government has declared it now fully supports the Palestinian plan to declare a separate Palestinian State.

This marks an important change in policy in Egypt, under President Hosni Mubarak, Egypt was always an ally of Israel, and refused to work with the terrorist organisation Hamas. However, since Mubarak’s removal from power in March, Egypt has been quick to break ties with Israel, a move popular with most Egyptians.

Egypt is urging the US to follow their lead and also declare support for the Palestinian State Declaration, however America has so far continued to hold firm to it’s policy of not doing business with Hamas.

Amazon Cloud Crash

The 21st of April saw a major crash of the Amazon Cloud EC2 system, which lasted for three days. The EC2 is used to host many websites including some big names in cyberspace, such as Foursquare, HootSuite, Reddit and Quora.

Amazon, like many other companies using the latest cloud server technology had been confident of the system, describing it as bomb proof. However, days after the event it has now emerged that Amazon have now lost some of their customers data. This has highlighted the lack of robust systems in place in Amazon, as well as other hosting companies when it comes to data back up and storage.

The outage occurred when Amazon were seeking to upgrade their system and error occurred as they shifted traffic from one router to another, in the process the data was moved to a low capacity redundant router.

Although the problem has been rectified the fact remains as more and more businesses trust the hosting companies to back up their data. Are their systems robust enough to protect data when outages and errors happen? For Amazon customers the answer was no.

America is under spiritual attack, the enemy wants to crash America. The nation’s economy is dependent upon modern technology and if the  technology being used is not safe it will be exploited. Not enough Christians understand the importance of technology, most of the church is 15 years behind the world, and is constantly playing catch up. Part of being effective in this age is being educated about the technologies the world works on, and safe guarding yourself against points of weakness, this is how the natural army operates, and it ought to be how the church operates. As the world walks shortsightedly into the new and latest technologies, we need to ask ourself is it a safe is our data secure.

The Coming of the Mahdi?

4 Comments

Within Islam there is a belief that there is a coming messianic figure, referred to as the 12th Imam or Mahdi. Although this belief is more or less universal across the sects of Islam, the Shiites have a particularly fundamental perspective on the Islamic teachings regarding the 12th Imam. And these teachings ought to be taken very seriously by the West and the Church.

Iran is a predominately Shiite nation, and the Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is evangelical in his beliefs. He sees himself as called by Allah to usher in the reign of the Mahdi, and that the Mahdi will unite the Muslim world, ruling from Iraq and bringing peace. However, to bring forth his appearing, terrible destruction must first be in place, as well as the destruction of Israel. Ahmadinejad has made no secret of his hate for the West and Israel, and has spoken publicly of his desire to see “Israel wiped off the face of the map”.

Ahmadinejad now sees the recent unrest in the Middle East as “prophetic” signs that the Mahdi is near. However, intelligence also suggests that Iran have been manipulating the troubles to bring about their own agenda. Iran have been circulating videos throughout the Middle East calling on the people to rise up and over-throw their rulers, sympathizers of the Iranian regime have infiltrated these countries, like Egypt and Yemen, in a bid to seize power and make alliances with the Iran.

As previously stated, the Mahdi will only appear after the destruction of Israel, and seeing Jerusalem in Muslim hands. What are the West doing? Ahmadinejad sees America as weak at this time, and looks to capitalize on her weakness, by pressing forward with their nuclear ambitions. The Church is called to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem”, however half the church is anticipating the destruction of Israel. This is especially a time for the Church to stand in the gap for Israel; and pray for America, that she will once again be a friend and ally to Jerusalem.

Cannes 2011: Embarrassing Sarkozy biopic

1 Comment

Nicolas Sarkozy was elected French President in 2007. His election was a sign of France moving away from socialism, and moving closer to America. Prophet TV was in France at the time of the election interceding for the nation. Before Prophet TV was in the region, the opinion polls in France suggested the socialist party would secure power, however, with the intercessory presence ushering in the Presence of God the atmosphere changed and France choose a pro-American President.

Following Sarkozy’s historic lead in the recent Libyan crisis and the burqa veil legislation in France, the International Cannes Film Festival 2011, to take place in May, has decided to choose the controversial film, La Conquête, as one of this year’s short-listed films to be premiere at the festival. The movie charts the French President’s rise to power, the break down of his first marriage, and the victory in the 2007 elections.

The La Conquête (The Conquest) may turn the French President into a national laughingstock. Sarkozy is already suffering in the French polls, due to the decisions he has taken in his Presidency to try and halt the nations addiction to socialism.

Sarkozy was due to attend the Cannes Film Festival this year, with his second wife Carla Bruni, who is appearing in the Woody Allen film Midnight in Paris. The viewing of La Conquête now poses a dilemma for Sarkozy on whether or not to attend.

The Cannes Film Festival is an event that shapes world perceptions via the media. In 2006 Prophet TV was interceding at the Festival during the long awaited premiere of the Da Vinci Code. By bring in the Presence of God, the demonic seeking to influence people through that movie was blocked and the movie failed the gain the praise of the Cannes critics, there were even some in the premiere who laughed jeeringly at the movie. The Da Vinci Code went on to be a box office flop worldwide.

What’s Causing the High Suicide Rate at France Telecom? – Yahoo! Voices – voices.yahoo.com

1 Comment

Within the last eighteen months there have been twenty-three suicides among the employees of France Telecom, Europe’s third largest telecommunications company, the latest occurring on September 11th by a 32-year-old woman who jumped from her office window in Paris.

There is now an investigation under way, and just one day before the latest suicide France telecom had said that it was postponing the company’s reorganization until October the 31st and they were going to increase medical staff by 10 percent.

Because of the problem of suicide in the company, the Chief Executive Officer of France Telecom, Didier Lombard met with the French Labor Minister, Xavier Darcos. Darcos asked the staff of France Telecom to begin having talks with staff representatives to learn to detect signs of distress and suicide.

The reorganization is the cause many contribute to the suicides. Because of the notes that people left behind and the places in which they chose to commit their suicide, it is apparent that unhappiness and stress in the workplace did play a role.

But I ask, musn’t this just be a trigger for an already existing problem? Or can a job really push an otherwise happy and normal person to ending his or her own life?

I spoke with some people I know in France, one who works for France Telecom and another who does not. The one who does work there told me, when I asked about it, that indeed the environment at France Telecom had become very strange. The other reported that he heard that the reason people were having such a hard time is because the majority of the employees there were of civil servant status — meaning that France Telecom could not fire them, or would at least have a very difficult time doing so. Therefore, in order to try to convince them to leave on their own account the company would do things like make them sit in strange places in the office, like small corner cubicles and give them dreadful jobs that they’d find unpleasant.

Personally, I think I would leave such a post before I became suicidal but I understand what might keep a person at such a job, as the salary is surely regulated and perhaps there is a retirement benefit to look forward to, or at the least job security. This situation reminds me of the situation here in the States some years ago with postal workers, which spurred the popular phrase “going postal,” which means that someone becomes insane and hurts others. Also, a person’s job becomes part of their identity and often that’s hard to let go.

On a more positive note, out of France Telecom’s 100,000 plus employees, those suicides represent something close to the national average for suicides, which is 17.6 per 100,000.
