Guest Dr. Brubaker Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 A mysterious book of cryptic prophecies has been discovered at the National Library in Rome, and there is evidence to suggest that it is the final work of the most famous and controversial prophet in the history of the world, Nostradamus. Even more startling than the discovery of the book, though, are the warnings it contains, which were so blasphemous and frightening in their time that they may have been intentionally suppressed until now. Nostradamus, born in 1503 in Saint Remy de Provence, France, lived most of his adult life in Salon de Provence, until his death in 1566. He began his career as a prophet relatively late in life, after he wrote the first of his almanacs, published annually beginning in 1550. Nostradamus soon became the trusted seer to the queen of France, Catherine de Medici, wife of King Henri II. It was this relationship that launched him to fame. Nostradamus’ predictions about famous world events, from Hitler to 9/11, have drawn attention and stirred debate the world over even centuries after his death. Some see a startling pattern of connection to modern events in his words and drawings, while others see nothing but abstractions and empty words. LOST BOOK OF NOSTRADAMUS explores some of the predictions that have given Nostradamus such extraordinary influence today, all the while unveiling the cryptic and frightening drawings in the lost book that take the program to a spectacular and frightening conclusion with critical information for today’s generation. In the Lost Book, there are images that strongly hint at future trouble for the Catholic Church, and even one image that appears to portray an assassination attempt on one of the modern era’s most beloved popes. There are other images that are said to depict World War I and II, and political movements such as Communism and Fascism. Current global conflicts are also presaged, including the rise of fundamentalism, in particular the current surge of radical Islam. The Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Roma (BNCR) was founded in 1875, in order to provide the new-born Italian Kingdom with a National Archive. http://www.bncrm.librari.beniculturali.it/eng/home.htm The Vaticinia Michaelis Nostradami de Futuri Christi Vicarii ad Cesarem Filium D. I. A. Interprete (The Prophecies of Michel Nostradamus on the Future Vicars of Christ to Cesar his son, as expounded by Lord Abbot Joachim), or Vaticinia Nostradami (The Prophecies of Nostradamus) for short, is a collection of eighty watercolor images compiled as an illustrated codex. A version of the well-known Vaticinia de Summis Pontificibus of the 13th-14th century, it was discovered in 1982 by the Italian journalists Enza Massa and Roberto Pinotti in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale di Roma (Central National Library) in Rome, Italy. The document can be found in the library under the title, "Fondo Vittorio Emanuele 307". A postscript by Carthusian librarians states that the book had been presented by one Brother Beroaldus to cardinal Maffeo Barberini, who would later become Pope Urban VIII (1623-1644). A further covering note suggests that the images were by the French seer Nostradamus (1503-1566), and had been sent to Rome by his son César de Nostredame as a gift. There is, however, absolutely no contemporary evidence that Nostradamus himself was either a painter or the author of the work, whose contents in fact date from several centuries before his time -- nor, indeed, that he had ever heard of it, given that it did not finally appear in print until after his death. The postcript is in fact dated '1629', and the covering note (not in Nostradamus's hand) from which the 'Nostradamian' title derives cannot, on the basis of its contents, date from earlier than 1689 - though an internal note does refer to a source dated '1343'. Nevertheless, the highly speculative Italian writer Ottavio Cesare Ramotti, together with the History Channel's The Lost Book of Nostradamus (October 2007), have still made much of the book's supposedly 'Nostradamian' origin. The Lost Book of Nostradamus could be another questionable tome penned and painted by Cesar, or Nostradamus' grandson, Seve, such as the Sixians. Seve presented the Sixians (six line poems attributed to Nostradamus but written by "somebody else") to King Henry IV of France in the early 1600s. Pope Urban VIII (April 1568 – July 29, 1644), born Maffeo Barberini, was Pope from 1623 to 1644. He was the last Pope to expand the papal territory by force of arms, and was a prominent patron of the arts and reformer of Church missions. However, the massive debts incurred during his papacy greatly weakened his successors, who were unable to maintain the Pope's longstanding political or military influence in Europe. He was also involved in a controversy with Galileo and his theory on heliocentrism during his time. Urban's military involvement was aimed less at the restoration of Catholicism in Europe than at adjusting the balance of power to favour his own independence in Italy. In 1626 the duchy of Urbino was incorporated into the papal dominions, and in 1627 when the direct male line of the Gonzagas in Mantua became extinct, he controversially favoured the succession of the Protestant Duke of Nevers against the claims of the Catholic Habsburgs. It was an Nostradamian scholar and retired analyst for the Italian National Police named Ottavio Cesare Ramotti who first published an interpretation under the titles "The Nostradamus Code" or "Nostradamus: The Lost Manuscript." Ottavio Cesare Ramotti Having worked for many years as an analyst-programmer at the Interforce Electronic Centre of the Italian National Police, he is now a well known interpreter of Nostradamus. The speciality of his approach is to work out his quartains with a computer using keys - ordering keys at the outset, which are now also interpretative keys - provided by Nostradamus himself in the quartains’ numbers, and also in the inscription on the famous stone he set in a dwelling at Turin. He is the author of "Chiavi di Nostradamus - il ventesimo Secolo", (Ed. Mediterranee - Rome - 1987 and 1990 - Lit. 28.000) and "Scienza temporale e papi del futuro illustrati da Nostradamus", (Ed. Noesis- Rome - 1995 - Lit. 33.000), both available from E-Mail cw@ramotti.it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Soldier of God_* Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Hi Lawrence, I went to your web site. Do you consider yourself a prophet or God? I've struggled to warn and enlighten you in many ways throughout the millennia. Now, your time has grown extremely short, and humanity is on the precipice of it demise as we reath the three-quarter mark during this year of great decision. (a.k.a., end of days, Judgement "day", Armageddon, etc.) that began August 11 th, 2005. Remember, I come as a theif; this is no time to scoff and cling to your opinions, faith in false prophecies, and other delusions. Lawrence why are you not living openly among the people like Jesus? You understand that the Catholic church teaches that no one knows the time and place. Against my better judgement, I am still struggling to give you one last chance to understand. Unless you follow my instructions quickly and without further delay, most of humanity and this civilization will shortly cease to be. I promise you, it will not be a pleasant or easy passing. Why do you have to install fear to the population? Leaders deceive and manipulate populations while people continue to support them out of ignorance and selfishness. Consequently, I have come to teach you lessons that will not be forgotten. It is your freewill to choose whether to learn now, from the ignorance will now lay waste to this entire civilization and impress upon all of you, the true nature of your puny intellects and abject short-sightedness Please don't take anything I say or do as a personal affront; I do this for the ultimate benefit of everyone. What is the karma benefit? All the evil in the world exists because most people are too selfish, stubborn, and easily deceived and deluded. Things will never get better until humanity turns away from money, religion, and politics and simply cooperates to what is right for the sake of others. Why would God create this all? You write about the secret societies such as Freemasonry, Kabbalah, Illuminati, etc., that religious monetary, and political leaders have belonged to throughout much of history. Unknown to most of humanity, their secret worldwide headquarters is the Vatican, which is one reason why it symbolized as Mystery Babylon in The Apocalype. You further write about how these cabals flowed from ancient Babylon into the present as integral components of ruling classes who have always been aligned with religous and monetary leaders. Do you prefer chaos to order? Is everyone who is a member of these groups evil? It is against the laws of the Catholic faith to join a secret society. Why would the Catholic Church be the leader of a society it has constantly put down over the ages. You write about the Church persecuting people, what about people persecuting the church? Was Simon the Sorcerer a heretic? According to the testimony of St. Justin, Simon came from Gitta (in the Pseudo-Clementine Homilies, II, xxii, called (Getthon) in the country of the Samaritans. At the outbreak of the persecution (c. 37 A.D.) of the early Christian community at Jerusalem that began with the martyrdom of St. Stephen, when Philip the Deacon went from Jerusalem to Samaria, Simon lived in the latter city. By his magic arts, because of which he was called "Magus", and by his teachings in which he announced himself as the "great power of God", he had made a name for himself and had won adherents. He listened to Philip's sermons, was impressed by them, and like many of his countrymen was baptized and united with the community of believers in Christ. But, as was evident later, his conversion was not the result of the inner conviction of faith in Christ as the Redeemer, but rather from selfish motives, for he hoped to gain greater magical power and thus to increase his influence. For when the Apostles Peter and John came to Samaria to bestow on the believers baptized by Philip the outpouring of the Spirit which was accompanied by miraculous manifestations, Simon offered them money, desiring them to grant him what he regarded as magical power, so that he also by the laying on of hands could bestow the Holy Ghost, and thereby produce such miraculous results. Full of indignation at such an offer Peter rebuked him sharply, exhorted him to penance and conversion and warned him of the wickedness of his conduct. Under the influence of Peter's rebuke Simon begged the Apostles to pray for him (Acts 8:9-29). However, according to the unanimous report of the authorities of the second century, he persisted in his false views. The ecclesiastical writers of the early Church universally represent him as the first heretic, the "Father of Heresies". It is beyond obvious that the 9-11 hijackers lacked both the flying experience and technical expertise to pull off such difficult attacks with military precision. This is insight into the true reason why there have been no more attacks on the USA. What about Osama? Pope John Paul II was an advid follower of Mary. He met mother Theresa. She was the perfect definition of what is a selfless person. This is my profession of faith. Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are the meek: for they shall posses the land. Blessed are they who mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after justice: for they shall have their fill. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the clean of heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they that suffer persecution for justice' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevenstarhand Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 Sorry guys and gals, You have been deceived and the evidence is overwhelming. Jesus Christ is a purposeful Roman deception, as are all so-called three faiths of Abraham. Would the Creator's true servants burn people at the stake for seeking the truth? Would they protect Nazis, fascists, and other terrorists? Would they torture? Would they start wars, support warmongers, fight in them, and equivocate about collateral damage? Whose lives are most important to the Creator? Are these things truly so difficult to discern? And if so, doesn't that equate to "strong delusion?" "Jesus" never lived among the people, just like Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and Zeus never did. Contemplate 2 Thessalonians 2:11 again. The Creator expects truth, wisdom, humility, self-sacrifice, compassion, freewill, and justice. Not greed, money, hero-worship, war, and other great injustices. Are you truly so blind that you continue to defend the things that destroy life everywhere? Would "God" bother speaking to you on a message board? I'm a humble servant who counsels you against worshipping heroes. Only a clueless deceiver would try to assert otherwise... Get a clue, while there is still time. I'm not here to save you. I'm here to give you the tools to save yourselves from yourselves. Personally, I don't like most people, especially those who ask such stupid questions. I do what I do out of compassion. Make no mistake about it. I think most people are half-witted. It is wrong to execute the retarded though... It is best to teach them the error of their ways so they learn to avoid such mistakes in the future and learn to help others instead. Here is Wisdom !! Peace...

Guest Spirit Talker Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I read your blog about the word Amen. So I would like to elaborate on it. The word Amen (Hebrew: אָמֵן, Standard Amen Tiberian Amen ; Arabic: آمين, Āmīn ; "So be it; truly") is a declaration of affirmation found in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament. Its use in Judaism dates back to its earliest texts. It has been generally adopted in Christian worship as a concluding formula for prayers and hymns. In Islam, it is the standard ending to Dua (supplication). Common English translations of the word amen include: "Verily", "Truly", "So be it", and "Let it be". It can also be used colloquially to express strong agreement, as in, for instance, amen to that. Amun (also spelled Amon, Amoun, Amen, and rarely Imen, Greek Ἄμμων Ammon, and Ἅμμων Hammon, reconstructed Egyptian Yamānu) was the name of a deity, in Egyptian mythology, who gradually rose to become one of the most important deities in Ancient Egypt, before fading into obscurity. Amun's name is first recorded in Egyptian as ỉmn, meaning "The hidden (one)". Also known as god of air, he came to be associated with the breath of life, which created the ba, particularly in Thebes. By the First Intermediate Period this had led to him being thought of, in these areas, as the creator god, titled father of the gods, preceding the Ogdoad, although also part of it. As he became more significant, he was assigned a wife (Amunet being his own female aspect, more than a distinct wife), and since he was the creator, his wife was considered the divine mother from which the cosmos emerged, who in the areas where Amun was worshipped was, by this time, Mut. Amun became depicted in human form, seated on a throne, wearing on his head a plain deep circlet from which rise two straight parallel plumes, possibly symbolic of the tail feathers of a bird, a reference to his earlier status as a wind god.

Guest Lemuria Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Atenism (or the Amarna heresy) is one of the earliest monotheistic religions, associated above all with the eighteenth dynasty Pharaoh Amenhotep IV, better known under the name he later adopted, Akhenaten. He is especially noted for attempting to compel the Egyptian population in the monotheistic worship of Aten in the 14th century BC. Atenism was Egypt's state religion for around 20 years, before a return to the traditional gods so comprehensive that the heretic Pharaohs associated with Atenism were erased from Egyptian records. Akhenaten was born to Amenhotep III and his Chief Queen Tiye and was their younger son. Akhenaten was not originally designated as the successor to the throne until the untimely death of his older brother, Thutmose. One thoery proposes that Thutmose III was the Moses of Judism. Moses was born around 1525 B.C. and found in the Nile in Memphis (Ex 2:5-9). Hatshepsut was the daughter of Pharaoh Thutmose I. She married her half-brother Thutmose II, a son of Thutmose I by a secondary wife. Thutmose II and Hatshepsut had two daughters Neferu-Ra and Hatshepsut-Meryet-Ra. Neferu-Ra died when she was young. Thutmose II was sickly and only reigned 4 years and died at the age of 33. Hatshepsut-Meryet-Ra later married her cousin Thumoses III. This theory has Moses found by Hatchepsut and given the Egypian name "Senmut (also called Senenmut)" when he came to live at the palace. (Ex 2:10). At about age 24, Moses was elevated to the position of "heir apparent" and is named Hatshepsut Xnem Amen, which means "Hatshepsut united with Amen" signifying his political alliance with the royal family. Senmut became Hatshepsut's lover and a member of her court with more than 20 titles. Senmut designed the temple Hatshepsut with rows of colonnades that reflect the vertical patterns displayed by the cliff backdrop. In addtion, when Hatshepsut became regent, Senmut was the tutor of her daughter Neferure. . In this way the temple is a successful example of architectural harmony between man and nature. The temple is dedicated to Amon and Hathor. At about age 33, Moses, now known as Hatshepsut Xnem Amen, was designated as the crown prince and became "Thutmoses III". Since Moses has no Royal blood Hatsheput legitimizes his throne by having him marry her daughter Hatshepsut-Meryet-Ra. During the first twenty-two years of Thutmose's reign he was co-regent with his stepmother, Hatshepsut. In the first of many campaigns to the north (in about 1469) Thutmose wins a spectacular victory near Megiddo, the details of which he records in an inscription in the temple at Karnak. He soon recovers control over all the regions conquered by his grandfather, but he adopts a more statesmanlike attitude to empire than his predecessor. Hatshepsut died as she was approaching, what we would consider middle age given typical contemporary lifespans, in her twenty-second regnal year. Thutmose III then became pharaoh of Egypt. I still need a clearer understanding Hatshepsut-Meryet-Ra. I know she was the wife of Pharaoh Thutmose III and mother of Pharaoh Amenhotep II. She was the daughter of the Adoratrix Huy. What is the connection between Hatshepsut-Meryet-Ra and Queen Hatshepsut. Amenhotep II (sometimes read as Amenophis II and meaning Amun is Satisfied) inherited the from his father Thutmose III. Aten (also called Atun, or Ptah) pratically the worship of Amun in Thebes Akhenaten worked on suppressing. came out of the Hidden as the male god Tama , who has a wife Nu (the Celestial Waters). The voice of Tama stirred Nu and brought forth Light, which produced or concentrated as the sun god Ra, which is a reflection of Aten. According to another version, Amon had two children Shu and Tefnut , which were the parents of RA (light), which is Atun manifest. Atun separated light from darkness and death from lifeAten was a being who represented the god or spirit of the sun, and the actual solar disk. He was depicted as a disk with rays reaching to the earth. At the end of the rays were human hands which often extended the ankh to the pharaoh. Some believe that Akhenaten introduced monotheism, and quoted the Psalms of Moses. It is possible that he began to worship the God of the Israelites. Sources indicate that the 13 long lines of the poem were praise for Aten as the creator and preserver of the world. Within it, there are no allusions to traditional mythical concepts since the names of the other gods are absent. Even the plural form of the word god was avoided. Akhenaten also ordered the closure of the temples dedicated to all the other gods in Egypt. Not only were these temples closed, but in order to extinguish the memory of these gods as much as possible, a veritable persecution took place. Literal armies of stonemasons were sent out all over the land and even into Nubia, above all else, to hack away the image and name of the god Amun. The word is "Adonai". It means "lord", and is an ordiary Semitic word also used in the polytheistic Semitic religions of the time, so there is no reason to connect it to "Aten" other than the fact that with a bit of abbreviation the two words can be made to sound similar. So can many words. If it was only used in monotheist proto-Judaism there might be a case, but since it is used in all Semitic traditions as a generic word of respect the claim that there is a specific link to monotheism seems implausible. "mos," meaning "son," i.e., the son and heir, legitimate son of Amenhotep III and rightful heir to the throne of Egypt. As in "politics makes strange bed-fellows," so too this exodus from Egypt was made up of an inconsistent alliance of religions. Aten was a solar, monotheistic deity. The Moon Worshippers adored a lunar god. Largely rejected by the Egyptians, Akhenaten sought to preside over the Moon Worshippers. He replaced Jehovah -- YHWH -- with "Adonai." In "Adonai," the suffix "ai" means "my." So removing the "ai" from "Adonai" leaves "Adon" (Lord). And "Adon," notes Sigmund Freud, is the Hebrew word for "Aten."

Luke_Wilbur Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 I thought the history of Amen was quite interesting. And after researching what was posted I somehow found a connection to Nebsoni, the scribe mentioned in the Book of the Dead. But, I am not sold on the Moses being either Thurmose III or Senenmut. Also, how is this symbology connected to Nostradamus? I do not think that Thumose III was Moses. His mummy was discovered in the Deir el-Bahri Cache above the Mortuary Temple of Hatshepsut in 1881. Katalin Kreszthelyi of Hungary suggested that a Unknown Man C mummy found in the Deir el Bahri Cache was Senenmut. The mummy had been treated in the exact same manner as kings of the 18th Dynasty. Others believe that the Unknown Man C was the high and scribe Nebseni (also known as Nibsoni). His name is mentioned in the papyrus of Ani. PROPOSED IDENTIFICATION FOR "UNKNOWN MAN C" OF DB320 This particular mummy was found in the coffin of the scribe Nibsoni (or Nebseni) and Gaston Maspero identified the individual as Nibsoni. Smith later (1912) disagreed with Maspero. He wrote: "Nibsoni lived in the times of the XXI Dynasty, whereas this is an XVIIIth Dyn. mummy, obviously belonging to the group that includes the first three Pharaohs who bore the name Thoutmosis. The mode of embalming, the treatment of the skin, the nature of the resin-impregnated bandages....and the treatment of the genital organs, all proclaim this mummy to be early XVIIIth Dyn. in date." Smith adds that since there is no king missing from the early- Eighteenth Dynasty series, "C" must have been a high official. He describes him as "...a tall, vigorous man, 1.739 m. in height. He has abundant, black hair, freely streaked with grey.... The teeth are so much worn that...there can be no doubt that he was well-advanced in years." http://www.egyptology.com/kmt/fall95/end.html I found little information about Nibsoni on the web. But, I did find a book "Guide to the Cairo Museum" By Cairo (Egypt).bal-Matḥaf al-Miṣrī, Matḥaf al-Miṣrī, Gaston Maspero, Pirie Quibell Coffin painted with the design in color, belonging to the Priest-scribe Nibsoni son of Pahiri and the lady Tamosu (the lid is inscribed under 1193) The face is uncovered and the mummy is in such wonderful preservation that it might be taken for the body of a man only a few days dead -- XXth Dynasty. As a high priest Nibsoni job was to take care of the gods and their needs and serve political advisor to the Pharaoh. O thou who art in thine egg (Ra,) who showest from thy Disk, who risest on thy horizon, and dost shine with golden beams in the height of heaven, like unto whom there is none among the gods, who sailest above the Pillars of Shu, who sendest forth blasts of fire from thy mouth, [who illuminest the Two Lands with thy splendour, deliver] thou Nebseni, the lord of fealty [to Osiris], from the god whose form is hidden, and whose eyebrows are like unto the two arms of the Balance on the night when the sentences of doom are promulgated. - The Papyrus of Ani 240 BC, Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead, Translated by E.A.

Guest Holy Cross Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Blasphemy is a sin against the virtue of religion by which we render to God the honour due to Him as our first beginning and last end. He that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, dying let him die" (Leviticus 24:15-16). [Gr. Melchisedek, from the Hebrew meaning "King of righteousness (Gesenius)] was King of Salem (Gen. xiv, 18-20) who, on Abraham's return with the booty taken from the four kings, "bringing forth bread and wine, for he was the priest of the most high God, blessed him", and received from him "the tithes of all" (v. 20). In the Hebrew Bible Melchizedek is called the High Priest of El Elyon, YHVH, the Most High One. The compound name Ēl ‘Elyōn 'God Most High' occurs in Genesis 14.18–19 as the god whose priest was Melchizedek king of Salem. The form appears again almost immediately in verse 22, used by Abraham in an oath to the King of Sodom. In this verse the name of God also occurs in apposition to Ēl ‘Elyōn in the Masoretic text but is absent in the Samaritan version, in the Septuagint translation, and in Symmachus. Tetragrammaton (from the Greek τετραγράμματον, meaning '[word of] four letters' (tetra "four" + gramma (gen. grammatos) "letter"), [1] refers to יהוה, one of the names of the God of Israel written with four letters, as written in the Hebrew Masoretic Text where it appears over 6,800 times. יהוה is the four-letter name of God , which is referred to in Josephus, by the Church Fathers, and the Jerusalem Talmud. In the study of Western occultism, the Tetragrammaton rules (amoung other things) the Zodiacal Forces and its four Elements. The four letters of the Name are taken as Elemental Powers: Y = Fire H = Water V = Air H = Earth The silence of Scripture about the facts of Melchisedech's birth and death was part of the divine plan to make him prefigure more strikingly the mysteries of Christ's generation, the eternity of His priesthood. Jesus the Christ is identified as a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek quoting from Ps. 110:4. Melchizedek's (Jesus') priesthood is superior to the Aaronic priesthood, and the Temple in Jerusalem is now unnecessary. He is commemorated as one of the Holy Forefathers in the Calendar of Saints of the Armenian Apostolic Church on July 30; in the Roman rite his commemoration is August 26. The Gnostic scriptures refer to him as Melchizedek the Supreme Paralemptor, which means Light-Bringer or Light-Maker. Until the discovery of the Qumran texts, the earliest Hebrew manuscripts were dated from the 9th and 10th centuries AD. Consequently, it was natural to suspect that uncomfortable words or phrases featuring in the original texts had been defaced, lengthened or modified. Qumran did not have any influence upon the origins of Christianity, for the minority Dead Sea Sect had cut themselves off from society, while Jesus and the first Christians were immersed in the Jewish society of their time and were in touch with the people. Follow only those that struggle to be holy and to live out the Gospel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
