"The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be..."




My personal disclaimer: I will be giving you a lot links in this update. Please do not think that by my giving you those links means that I would indorse everything written or said at those sites, nor at any links found on those sites or where they might lead you to.
  
All the underlining, bold lettering, highlighting and italics are mine.   With my thoughts in blue for clarity when needed.

Among the many things that Yeshua (Jesus) had to say about the end of this age, we find this very important key to understanding that subject recorded for us in Matthew 24: 
37But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,  39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

In just a few minutes we will take a closer at that (I believe not fully understood) key and a little below that I will pass on some of Tom Horn's latest information.  It is information which I believe every Christian needs to know in order not to be deceived by some of the things that are fast developing in current events.  However, because the nature of his information is so contrary to traditional teaching, I believe you need to be pre-armed with a few verses that will help you see and understand the truth in Tom's information.   And besides, as Christians living in the last days, I believe you should study to understand the truth of these verses anyway.  They will give you a firm foundation from the Scriptures upon which Tom's information can be seen as demonstrating the truth of.  If you continue reading throughout this update (and I hope you will) I believe you will soon begin to understand why these verses are so important and they will be here for you to refer back to at any time.

 Ecclesiastes 1:
 9The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  10Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.  11There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.  (Is this GOD's way of saying that history really does repeat itself?)  12I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.  13And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. 

 10I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.  11He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.  12I know that there is no good in them, but for a man to rejoice, and to do good in his life.  13And also that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God.  14I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.  15That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past. (Consider carefully this word "requireth":  in the Hebrew it is "A primitive root" meaning "to search out [by any method; specifically in worship or prayer]; by implication to strive after: - ask, beg, beseech, desire, enquire, get, make inquisition, procure, (make) request, require, seek (for)."  Now consider this: putting all these verses together, does this mean that GOD requires us to know the truth about the ancient past in order to correctly understand the end of the age?  I am convinced that He does and that it is a knowledge the church has neglected.  Therefore, as we read in the next verse:)  16And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there

Those last few words in verse 16 above might seem a little confusing at first, for how is it that "iniquity" is found at "the place of righteousness"?  For the Hebrew word given as "iniquity" means "a wrong (especially moral): - iniquity, wicked (-ness)."  In other words, it's sin.  However, a study of it's usage throughout the Scriptures reveals that it is not like other sin, it is a specific type of sin: it's error.  And understanding this truth goes along way in explaining what "the mystery of iniquity" is all about (2 Thessalonians 2:7). 

For you see, only Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) has perfect knowledge, free from all error, which is iniquity.  But none of us will ever have perfect knowledge in this life.  However, all those who have accepted Him have laid the only foundation for Truth (1 Corinthians 3:11-13), for He is the Truth.   But then they must build on that foundation a knowledge based on the truth from the Scriptures.  All correct knowledge, understanding and wisdom gleaned in this way (from the Scriptures) is likened to "...gold, silver, precious stones..."  But none of us will be without a mixture of error (iniquity) in our knowledge to one degree or another, which is represented here by Paul as the "...wood, hay, stubble..."   In this way "the mystery of iniquity" is always at work within our individual belief systems, working against our ever knowing all the truth of GOD.

17Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it; yea farther; though a wise man think to know it, yet shall he not be able to find it


With all of the above as groundwork, let us now continue

I believe the overwhelming majority of Christians today have absolutely no idea of the kind of breakthrough advances in science and technology that are being made under the cover of darkness by every major government on earth.  For they each have their own secretly funded dark project programs through which they seek the kind of breakthrough advances that will put or keep them ahead of all others.  For this reason, as you will learn below, they are compelled to even go after forbidden knowledge. 

So why do I believe it is so important that you know about some of these breakthroughs?  I am glad you asked that question!  It is because some of those breakthroughs (as they are made public) are going to be a real challenge to your Christian World View.  Which view is based on much of what, if not everything, you have been taught to believe from the Scriptures, according to your church denomination's view of them.  However, in those same Scriptures we were warned that it is the very fact that we have been "taught by the precept of men" (Isaiah 29:13) that keeps us from understanding what the LORD has really said is coming upon the world (Isaiah 29:11).  And it is for this reason the LORD will be "turning...things upside down" (Isaiah 29:16).   

For example: as I pointed out at the beginning, Yeshua (Jesus) gave us a very important key to understanding the end of this age in Matthew 24:
37But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,  39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

But what have you been taught about that key? 

If you are among those that were taught to believe verse 38 above satisfactory explains what it was like "in the days that were before the flood", that things were just moving along normally, then I believe you are among those that need to seriously reconsider what you have been taught regarding what it was like in those days.  And you need to do so in order to understand what may now in fact be going on secretly in our own days. 

So, in light of all the scriptures that have been given above, let us take just minute or so and consider this:  If you have been taught and believe that verse 38 above satisfactory explains what it was like "in the days that were before the flood", then first of all I want to explain how you were taught a "private interpretation" of that verse, which Peter declared plainly, under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, that we are not to do.

19We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:  20Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.  21For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

Many groups have taught and still teach verse 20 above as their proof text that we can not correctly understand the Scriptures apart from them, the "learned" men of whatever group you are connected with.  The problem with that is, nothing could be further from the truth.  For Peter was simply restating a long and well established way of getting to the truth of a matter, as also being the correct way of interpreting the Scriptures.  In this way you would   

Moses declared it in Deuteronomy 19:
15One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.

Yeshua declared it in Matthew 18: 
16But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

Paul declared it in 2 Corinthians 13: 
1This is the third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

And Paul had also declared in 1 Corinthians 2:
11For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.  12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.  13Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual

The meaning of "comparing spiritual things with spiritual" is the "comparing" of verses from one place in GOD's word (the Scriptures) with other like verses on the same subject found in other places in His word.  For Yeshua said in John 6: 63It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

Similarly, Yeshua was quoting from Deuteronomy 8:3 when He said in Matthew 4: 
4But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Also see Luke 4:4).

That "the Holy Ghost teacheth" us as Paul stated (quoted above), is in agreement with what Yeshua stated in John 14: 26But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

And Yeshua also stated in John 16:  
12I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.  13Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth (that is to say: "the Holy Ghost"), is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.  14He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Now, in returning to the subject of how it was in "the days of Noah...that were before the flood", you must read (and study to understand) what we are told about that time in Genesis 6:
 1And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,  2That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.  3And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

That means exactly what it sounds like.  Some of "the sons of God" (in other words "angels") looked down on GOD's new creation and "saw the daughters of men...and they took them wives of all which they chose."  That could not be more clear, "they took" some of "the daughters of men" as "wives..."

For proof of that fact Jude tells us in Jude 1:
6And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

And, in order to be even more clear, he went on to say in Jude 1:
7Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

So what was happening in "the days of Noah...that were before the flood"?  You just read the Scriptures highly condensed version: "the sons of God" that "saw the daughters of men...and" came down and "took them wives of all which they chose" were in fact  "the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation,...giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh" 

In other words: one form of GOD's creation (some of "the angels") went after something different from themselves, a lower form of GOD's creation (Psalm 8:4-6).  And in this case that lower form was "the daughters of men". 

And oh yes, least we forget, Peter (as another New Testament witness along with Jude) also made mention of these "angels" in 2 Peter 2:
4For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;

So we have two witnesses from the New Testament itself that indicate that this was believed and taught, no doubt taught by other leaders as well, in the early church.

We are even told of the result of this unholy angel/human union in Genesis 6:
4There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

Note that the "giants" (the angel/human offspring) were not only "in the earth in those days" (Genesis 6:4) "that were before the flood" (Matthew 24:38), but "also after that" flood. You can read more about the "giants" in Numbers 13:33; Deuteronomy 2:11, 20; Deuteronomy 3:11, 13; Joshua 12:4; Joshua 13:12; Joshua 15:8; Joshua 17:15 and Joshua 18:16.

But after the leaders of the early church had all passed on, new leaders arose that rejected this truth of the Scriptures (and other truths as well) and began teaching a lie, namely: "the sons of God" were not angels, but instead were the professors of religion at that time, who were the posterity of Seth.  They intermingled themselves with the excommunicated race of Cain and profaned the purity of the godly line.

In the light of the Scriptures given above on this issue, it is hard to understand how they were able to overturn an early church teaching that we even have evidence had been understood and taught since very ancient times. 

But then, Jesus had clearly warned in Matthew 24:
 3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?  4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.  5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many(also see Mark 13:4-6 and Luke 21:6-8)  He was not speaking here of men claiming that they were "Christ", but rather of some who would actually "come in" His "name, saying" that He was "Christ" and yet would "deceive many" by other things they would teach, or fail to teach.

Little could they have known that lies and false teaching would come into the church so soon, as it did with the teaching that "the sons of God" were not angels, but instead were the posterity of Seth.  It is a false teaching that is still being taught in most churches today.

Now I will attempt to explain (as briefly as possible) why I believe that false teaching was introduced into the early church by Satan, which also explains why it continues to have such a hold to this very day.  For such teaching, along with the teaching of evolution, has permitted and given rise to the popular concept of aliens from other planets.  Which concept has led today's researchers to the discovery that the records of mythology handed down to us by every ancient civilization, may (as they claim) have been nothing more than the records of earlier alien visits to earth by advanced and therefore superior civilizations.  Aliens at that time would have seemed like gods to man.

However, one who is armed with the truth of the Scriptures today, should be able to understand that what we have in the records of mythology is in fact extra biblical records of "the sons of God" presenting themselves as gods to ancient civilizations.  But of course in today's world, man is much to sophisticated for that.  So now they are presenting themselves as aliens from outer space.  And when they take people today it is being called alien abduction.

And now we have gone full circle, for we can reread some of those same verses we mentioned at the beginning, that may have been hard to understand at that time, but now with your eyes wide opened, they will make much more sense.

9The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  10Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us

Tom Horn at the Science and Supernatural Conference

About this playlist posted October 16, 2010, by missionettess

Description: Tom Horn - "Transhumanism - Science and Supernatural Conference" -

This lecture, delivered before a live audience in Canton, Ohio in 2010, is based on research in the upcoming new book Forbidden Gates: How Genetics, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Synthetic Biology, Nanotechnology, and Human Enhancement Herald the Dawn of Techno-Dimensional Spiritual Warfare.

This research reveals for the first time how breakthrough advances in science, technology, and philosophy—including cybernetics, bioengineering, nanotechnology, machine intelligence, synthetic biology, and transhumanism—will combine to create mind-boggling game-changes to everything you have ever known about spiritual warfare. How so?

In recent years, astonishing technological developments have pushed the frontiers of humanity toward far-reaching morphological transformation that promises in the very near future to redefine what it means to be human.

An international, intellectual, and fast-growing cultural movement known as transhumanism intends the use of genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology (Grin technologies) as tools that will radically redesign our minds, our memories, our physiology, our offspring, and even perhaps—as Joel Garreau in his best-selling book, Radical Evolution, claims—our very souls.
 
The technological, cultural, and metaphysical shift now underway unapologetically forecasts a future dominated by this new species of unrecognizably superior humans, and applications under study now to make this dream a reality are being funded by thousands of government and private research facilities around the world. As the reader will learn, this includes, among other things, rewriting human dna and combining humans with beasts, a fact that some university studies and transhumanists believe will not only alter our bodies and souls but ultimately could open a door to contact with unseen intelligence. As a result, new modes of perception between things visible and invisible are expected to challenge the church in ways that are historically and theologically unprecedented.
 
Without comprehending what is quickly approaching in related disciplines of research and development, vast numbers of believers could be paralyzed by the most fantasticand most far-reachingsupernatural implications. The destiny of each individualas well as the future of their familieswill depend on knowledge of the new paradigm and the preparedness to face it head on.
 
As outlined in this book (Tom's new book "Forbidden Gates..."), the power operating behind this scheme to integrate human-animal-machine interfaces in order to reengineer humanity is not new. The ancient, malevolent force is simply repackaging itself these days as the forward-thinking and enlightened progress needed for the next step in human evolution.
 
Facing godlike machines and man's willingness to cross over species and extradimensional barriers put in place by God, traditional methods of spiritual warfare—which Christian institutions have relied on for the last century—will soon be monumentally impacted in nontraditional ways and insufficient when approaching this threshold. Yet it is possible, according to Forbidden Gates, not only to survive but to triumph over the uncanny challenges the impending epoch will present.
 
Overcomers will prevail through a working knowledge of the philosophy and technologies driving the threats, combined with a solid understanding of the authority that Christians alone have. What continues within these pages will lift the curtain on a world unlike previous generations could have expected or even imagined, and will inform believers how the power of Christ can be amplified against heretofore unknown adversarial manifestations. 
 
Thomas and Nita Horn have nearly thirty-five years of ministry experience, with twenty-five inside the largest evangelical institution in the world—including executive-level positions with responsibilities such as exorcism. Today they are internationally recognized lecturers, publishers, radio hosts, and best-selling authors of several books, including Apollyon Rising 2012: The Lost Symbol Found and the Final Mystery of the Great Seal Revealed. Their works have been referred to by writers of the L. A. Times Syndicate, MSNBC, Christianity Today, New Man magazine, World Net Daily, and News Max, as well as by White House correspondents and reporters with dozens of newsmagazines and press agencies around the globe. They have been interviewed by U.S. congressmen and senators on their findings, and have been featured repeatedly in major media, including top-ten talk shows, America's Morning News for the Washington Times, CBN, and the History Channel.
