"The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city" - The War in Ukraine and Fatima's Third Prophecy

The War in Ukraine and Fatima's Third Prophecy

Virgin Mary gave prophecies to Lucia and other two children in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917.  Lucia later wrote the third prophecy and sealed  it, commending it to a prelate.  She asked the Vatican no to make it public until 1960 or her future death.

The Vatican did not make it public in 1960, and then in 1961, Virgin Mary appeared in Garabandal, Spain, to give prophecies to Conchita and other young people.  Conchita said that there would be a great warning and miracle in future, but she did not reveal the time.  Meanwhile, Pope John Paul II was shot in a murder attempt in May 1981, although he could survive.

And in June 1981, Virgin Mary appeared to some youths in Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina to continue her plan started in Fatima.  Her apparition still continues today.   

Finally in 2000, the Vatican made public the third secret of Fatima, although many people have suspected that the Vatican did not fully reveal the secret, since the secret cannot be only related to the 1981 attempt to kill Pope John Paul II despite the claim of the Vatican.  And, in 2005, Pope John Paul II and Lucia both died, leaving the third prophecy of Fatima in mystery.

When Virgin Mary appeared in Fatima, it was in WWI.  And, as the second prophecy of Fatima predicted, WWII started about 22 years later in 1939.  When Virgin Mary appeared in Garabandal, the cold war had already started between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, and the Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in 1962.  This Crisis might have led to a total nuclear war which was assumed to have been prophesized in the third prophecy of Fatima.  But, as Virgin Mary appeared in Garabandal in 1961, the Crisis must have suppressed.  Yet, as Pope John Paul II was shot in May 1981, Virgin Mary appeared in Medjugorje in June 1981 to suppress further attacks on the Pope, although another attempt was made in 1982.   

Why did Lucia want to keep secret the third prophecy of Fatima?  Russia was mentioned in the second prophecy as an adversary against the Vatican.  If such names of countries were mentioned in the third prophecy and these names were revealed far before realization of the prophecy, the event would be probably accelerated, making the world situation more dangerous.      

 

As Pope John Paul II and Lucia both died in 2005, the third world war might occur about 20 years after their death, since WWII occurred 22 years after Virgin Mary had appeared to Lucia in Fatima.  It means that the years around 2027 must be in danger.  The current war in Ukraine might be a prelude to it, although Isaac Newton predicted after his long study of the Bible that the start of the end of the world would begin in 2060.

We have to read the Bible more carefully, since 2060 is not so far away.

25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
27 And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?
28 The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,
29 Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?
30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.

Virgin Mary reportedly appeared to children in Europe sometimes, especially after WWI and the Spanish flu, delivering warnings and requesting repentance of the mankind:

Our Lady of Fátima is a Catholic title of Mary, mother of God based on the Marian apparitions reported in 1917 by three shepherd children at the Cova da Iria in Fátima, Portugal. The three children were Lúcia dos Santos and her cousins Francisco and Jacinta Marto. The bishop of Leiria, José Alves Correia da Silva declared the events worthy of belief on 13 October 1930.  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_F%C3%A1tima)

The Garabandal apparitions are apparitions of Saint Michael the Archangel and the Blessed Virgin Mary that are claimed to have occurred from 1961 to 1965 to four young schoolgirls in the rural village of San Sebastián de Garabandal in the Peña Sagra mountain range in the autonomous community of Cantabria in Northern Spain. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garabandal_apparitions)

Our Lady of Medjugorje and Mother of the Redeemer, is the title given to alleged visions of the Blessed Virgin Mary which began in 1981 to six Croatian teenagers in Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina (at the time in SFR Yugoslavia). The alleged visionaries are Ivan Dragičević, Ivanka Ivanković, Jakov Čolo, Marija Pavlović, Mirjana Dragičević and Vicka Ivanković. They ranged from ten to sixteen years old at the time of the first alleged apparition. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Medjugorje)

As for the Fatima case, there is still controversy on the third prophecy given by Virgin Mary to Lucia, though the Vatican and John Paul II officially revealed it in 2000.  Probably the Vatican must still keep secret the core of the prophecy, so that Virgin Mary has continued to appear in other places like Garabandal in Spain, Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and even Akita in Japan. 

As for the Garabandal case, Conchita, the main figure among girls who saw the apparition, has not yet revealed the time of the Great Miracle promised by Virgin Mary.

In the Medjugorje case, Virgin Mary has still continued to appear even today.  In Her delivery in February 2022, it is said that She gave a warning that Satan wishes to start a war.  She stressed that the mankind should spiritually return to the God as a response to Her warning and other admonitions delivered by the God; otherwise the mankind should lose their future.  This warning of Virgin Mary must be related to the current war in Ukraine and the ongoing corona-pandemic. 

In this context, the mankind seems to have entered into a decisive era where a critical event should happen.  A big tragedy that can be regarded as the end of the world might occur in the extension of the current war in Ukraine and the ongoing corona-pandemic.  It must be because too many human souls coming into the spirit world after their death in this world are falling down to the hells according to their choice or only souls of too few people are qualified to enter Heaven.   

However, the God, Christ Jesus, and Virgin Mary are benevolent and merciful.  They will surely save the mankind and allow them to continue their history over the 21st century.  I really wish the mankind to understand the mind of the God, Christ Jesus, and Virgin Mary and fully reflect on and correct their irrelevant attitudes and profane mind sets.

Finally, people should more read the Bible rather than watching smartphone screens for fun or business.

26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.
27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.

"Our fathers worshipped in this mountain" - Fatima, Garabandal and other Warnings and Miracles

Fatima, Garabandal and other Warnings and Miracles

It is time to think abut the fate of the mankind, since the current pandemic has already killed globally six million people and the current war in Ukraine has reportedly killed thousands of Ukraine and Russian soldiers in addition to hundreds or more of innocent civilians.   

So, the warnings and prophecies Mother Mary gave to children in Europe, etc. concerning great tragedies and hardships the human world would have to face should be reviewed.  From Fatima, Portugal (started in the spring of 1916), to Garabandal, Spain (started in 1961), the spirit of Mother Mary appeared to children to show them the horrible future of the mankind and encourage them to tell people to repent so as to avoid the terrible fate.

It is interesting that a girl involved in the miracle of Fatima told the Vatican not to reveal her writing on the third prophecy until her death or 1960.  But, as the Vatican did not publish the third prophecy in 1960, it seemed that Mother Mary appeared in Garabandal, Spain, in 1961 and revealed the horrible future of the mankind to children the main figure of whom called Conchita still lives in New York.  

Although the critical third prophecy of Fatima was eventually made public by Pope John Paul II in 2,000, it did not satisfy many people who thought that the prophecy should not be only related to the failed attempt in early 1980s to kill Pope John Paul II.  The Vatican might still hide critical part of the prophecy.

Indeed, it is reportedly said that Mother Mary gave warnings to Conchita and other girls in Garabandal that cardinals, bishops, etc. would corrupt, leading spirits of many people to perdition with theirs.  And, it is reportedly said that Mother Mary would give further a Great Warning and a Great Miracle clearly to people, and Conchita was told the date of the Great Miracle.  If the mankind do not fully repent after watching the Great Miracle, the God will punish severely the mankind.  Therefore, people want to know the date of the Great Miracle.  But, Conchita said  that she will reveal it only eight days before the date of the Great Miracle.  So, there have been some speculations about it.   

According to one such speculation, "the earliest day that the Warning could come, on any Friday, is after April 13, 2022, up to almost a year before the day of the Miracle and Miracle signs on April 13, 2023...This date is also Holy Thursday so if the Holy Thursday is a requisite, this is the only time that this can happen. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwDpful8-98)"

It is unknown if the Great Warning will come till April 13, 2023, and people will see the Great Miracle on April 13, 2023.  And, it is also unknown that Conchita who is now in her 70s will accordingly announce publicly the date of the Great Miracle.  And, it is also unknown if people will fully repent after seeing the Great Miracle.

However, as Isaac Newton predicted that the end of the world would start in 2060 and Swedenborg wrote that the effect of the last judgment performed in the spirit world in the middle of the 18th century should appear in the human world two to three centuries later, we should take the message from Mother Mary in a serous manner.   

    

Whether or not the Great Warning and Great Miracle will happen in 2022 or 2023 or Conchita will reveal the date of Great Miracle, we have already seen warnings and miracles such as the corona-pandemic and the Ukraine War in addition to the 9/11 Terror, the Occupy Wall Street Movement, the first black U.S. president, the troublesome presidency of Trump, etc. in this century.  Indeed, the God has already shown miracles on the earth and wonders in the sky.  Mother Mary might have already got tired of human foolishness and breathtaking stupidity, so that She might forsake the mankind without showing the Great Miracle.

In that case, we had better prepare for the third world war coming soon the effect of which should continue in this century through 2060. 

   

Anyway, apart from Fatima and Garabandal, there must be more cases where the God, Christ Jesus, Mother Mary, etc. have already given warnings and shown miracles to the mankind, including children, so that we should run out of excuses for our sins, foolishness, betrayal, and squalid choice of material satisfaction, hatred, and evil above the holy teachings of the God, Christ Jesus, and Mother Mary. 

Indeed, the God, Christ Jesus, and Mother Mary should forsake the mankind foolishly marching to the hells, selling their souls to Satan and escaping from the sacred light of love, faith, justice, and truth.

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

"And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum" - The New Civilization based on Right Understanding of Spirits and the Afterlife

The New Civilization based on Right Understanding of Spirits and the Afterlife

The 21st century is so critical for human history that there is no wander that the Third World War occurs in this century.

When Abraham left Ur in Mesopotamia 2,000 years before Christ Jesus, wars occurred around the Sumerian city nation Ur, leading to collapse of the Sumerian civilization.

Decades after Christ Jesus was executed on the cross in the 1st century, the Jewish- Roman War occurred, leading to collapse of the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem and the diaspora of the Jewish people till the 20th century.

And now in the early 21st century, 2,000 years after Christ Jesus, it seems that we are approaching WWIII, leading to the Second Advent or the second coming of Christ Jesus to the human world to execute the Last Judgment on the mankind.   

In this context, WWI and WWII in the 20th century might be just preludes to the coming WWIII in this 21st century.  Indeed, according to some analysis, the period between 1958 and 1998 is rather a calm period of the interlude of international conflicts, although there were the Cold War between the U.S. and the Soviet Union, the Vietnam War, the wars between Israel and Arab nations, the Persian Gulf War, the war between China and Vietnam, etc.

The 21st century started with the 9/11 Terror, and has experienced the global financial crisis, the Fukushima nuclear accident, drastic changes in the global climate, the increase of tension between the U.S. and China, the corona pandemic, and the Ukraine war.

No matter what method Isaac Newton took in his calculation of the year of the end of the world, his result of 2,060 as the year when the end of the world should start looks plausible.

What's more, great psychic Swedenborg, who lived in the same period in this world with Newton in the 18th century, wrote that the last judgment had been executed in the spirit world as he was allowed to see the afterlife in the middle of the 18th century.  He thought that this last judgment in the spirit world would effect the human world 2 to 3 centuries later.  Therefore, we may assume that this effect would become evident around 2060.

In summary, we have to prepare for the third world war expected to happen in the latter part of this century.  And, Christ Jesus should come back to this human world to save the mankind.  And, we will be allowed to continue to live for the next 2,000 years.  But, our civilization cannot be the same as it was before this century.

In this context, the war in Ukraine and this corona-pandemic must be part of birth pains for the new civilization with the new religion based on right understanding of the relationship between this human world and the spirit world or the afterlife.

14 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
15 The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;
16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

The Revelation of the Bible reads that the devil is finally cast into the lake of fire and brimstone to be tormented day and night for ever and ever:

Revelation 20
7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Russian leaders are now behaving like Satan, attacking Ukraine and deceiving its own people.  Russian troops really tried to capture Kiev, a beloved city, in vain.  Yet, it looks like fire will come down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. 

Indeed, the history of Ukraine and Russia must be checked, looking back to their relationship of thousand years.  There must be a chance where Satan was allowed to sneak into their relationship.

Truly, the Russian (Orthodox) Church might be worse than the Vatican or the Protestant churches.

I really hope that the battles will be ceased by this fall or October at latest.

"Get thee behind me, Satan" - The Advent may be around 2060 after WWIII

The Advent may be around 2060 after WWIII

Some Japanese sites on the Internet have shown predictions of the future.  

According to those predictions, including those claimed to be revealed by mysterious men coming to the present world from the future world around 2060 or so, there would be the third world war in 2020s.

The war would be fought between Western countries such as the U.S., the E.U., Japan and India and autocratic states such as China and Russia.  The war would affect Europe, the Middle East, the most parts of Asia, North America, and Africa.   

Remarkable points are that India will become a strong military power to suppress China in association with the U.S. and Japan; China will be defeated and disintegrated; and Russia will be more outrageous out of control to be defeated, losing its territories.  Europe will basically keep the current status, but Africa would miserably suffer the war. 

You may take as fakes these predictions of the future freely and irresponsibly presented by anonymous people on the Internet.  But, the prediction or prophecy of the Bible that Christ Jesus should return to the human world sooner or later must be taken more seriously.  And, the Advent may be around 2060.

Indeed, when Christ Jesus comes second time, none will mind China, Russia, WWIII, etc. any more, since His power will surpass all the evils in this world.

9 And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence:
10 For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee:
11 And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

"he must needs go through Samaria" - The Poor Become Happy in the Afterlife

 

Cherry Blossoms around Tokyo

The Poor Become Happy in the Afterlife

To save the world means to save the poor, since the rich do not want the world to be saved.  Therefore, Christ Jesus tried to save the poor in order to save the world.

In this sense, only the poor can understand what Christ Jesus was and what He was doing.  Indeed, Christianity is the religion for the poor.

The God also means perfect goodness.  But, every kind of evil in this world comes from human desires for wealth, happiness, social status, etc.  And for men to satisfy their desire, they have to earn money that is a tool of Satan trying to corrupt every man.  As a result, the rich, the elite, successful men and happy men in this world try to keep their wealth, social status, and other advantageous conditions, preventing the poor from getting any money.  From this circumstance, every kind of evil in this world emerges, and the poor are made to suffer.

Satan has brainwashed the rich, the elite, the upper-class people, the strong, the competent, etc. so that they neglect the poor and they follow and revere it as a god.  Truly those rich men, etc. brainwashed by Satan with money respect Satan as a god.  This is the true status of the world.      

In this context, for Christ Jesus to save the poor means to fight Satan.  The Gospels show this fight of Christ Jesus against Satan.  Followers of Christ Jesus have to fight Satan like Christ Jesus.  Without fighting Satan, you cannot be a Christian essentially.

Satan has brainwashed the rich, etc. with the idea that there is no afterlife and the life is only once, so that they have to become and stay rich and enjoy rich life in this world as much as possible, even neglecting the poor.

But Christ Jesus taught the poor that (1) there is the afterlife, (2) rich men cannot enter into Heaven, (3) the poor, the faithful, and people with love to truth and justice are accepted in Heaven so as to live happy forever there.

To accept and understand the teaching of Christ Jesus, we have to use our spiritual power to see that there are souls in human beings, the spirit world exists, and this material world was made from the spirit world by the God.  We have to realize that when a man dies, his soul leaves the body and enters into the spirit world as a spirit.  Our minds continue to live with our souls and spirits.

Although even Christ Jesus did not teach the details of the spirit world, we have to understand that this world is under the spirit world.  Therefore, we should be prepared for new lives in the spirit world after death in this world.  Poverty in this world is the main part of qualification requirements for happiness in the spirit world or Heaven.

"the whole multitude was by the sea on the land" - The Only Reliable Psychic is Christ Jesus

Cherry Blossoms around Tokyo

The Only Reliable Psychic is Christ Jesus

Christianity was originally promoted based on spirituality as written in 2 Corinthians 12 by St. Paul:

(2 Corinthian)

2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
3 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)
4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

Christ Jesus also said some spiritual matters and miracles:

(Matthew 17)
20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Put simply, Christianity is based on spiritual matters, miracles, and supernatural events.  From the beginning, the God, Angels, Heaven, Satan, evils spirits, the hells, the spirit world, and human spirits and souls are all related to paranormal phenomena that cannot be observed with human eyes in daily or real life. 

Therefore, believing in Christianity means believing in these paranormal phenomena.  However, it is not only Christianity that deals with paranormal phenomena and teaches spiritual matters or the way to the God.  Even in these centuries, there have been specific people who can show their psychic power to draw people's attention or establish new religions in various countries such as India, Japan, etc.

Some of them perform miracles, evoke and communicate with spirits of the dead, invoke former lives of followers, and display other paranormal events.  It seems that they were given such ability by nature.  They often praise the Buddha, Christ Jesus, etc.  Some of them claim that they are another Buddha, another relative or Disciple of Christ Jesus, or that they are sent by the God.  They sometimes claim that they are on an equal footing to that of Christ Jesus, the Buddha, and other past great saints.

It cannot be denied that there are other people than Christ Jesus, the Buddha, etc. that have supernatural power, psychic ability, religious ability, etc.  They may not behave like Satan or evil spirts pretending saints.  However, sometimes they claim that the God is in them and the God is the minds of people, so that they and their followers are a kind of god, which seems to be against the teaching of Christ Jesus.  The God, the Son of the God, the holy spirit, and the mankind born from flesh cannot be identical.  A man cannot be a god. 

Satan and evil spirits used by Satan can also exercise their own spiritual power.  They may even perform miracles like Christ Jesus.  Especially, it is written in the Gospels that as the end of the world comes close, there would appear someone who are controlled by Satan but could perform miracles. 

The more people get interested in spiritual matters, the more Satan brainwashes and tries to rule those with psychic ability.  

As Christian churches have not put much weight on spiritual mattes in these centuries, there are many people who do not believe in existence of the afterlife.  But, those who believe in the afterlife and spiritual matters are facing a danger, a crisis, or a trap set by Satan who is trying to brainwash them with ultimately wrong ideas such that everybody is a god.   

In summary, the only reliable psychic is Christ Jesus, so that we have to rely on the Bible and the Gospels in learning spiritual matters, paranormal phenomena, etc.  As for other psychics, we have to check how much they love the God and Christ Jesus or how much they are fighting Satan when referring to the words of them.

2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,
3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:
4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

An Episode of King Solomon: Wisdom above Longevity

It is said that some psychic can appear in a dream of his follower.  With such ability, such psychic sometimes claims that he or she is a kind of god.  But, the God truly appeared in a dream of King Solomon:

  (1 Kings 3)

5 In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.
...

9 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?
10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;
12 Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.
13 And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.
14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.

Solomon did not ask the God to give him longevity but beseeched wisdom to know truth about people, which pleased the God, thus making Solomon's life time prolonged.

This episode tells what is more important than length of life for a king.  A king has to have the wisdom and ability to see reality and truth of people and their minds. 

However, from a point of spiritual view, it is natural and reasonable that Solomon did not ask the God for longevity but for wisdom.  Because there is the afterlife after death in this human world and human souls will survive physical death to continue to live as spirits in the spirit world.

In this sense, Christ Jesus came to this world not to give longevity to people, but to give them wisdom to understand how much the God loved them.  Indeed, Christ Jesus taught people that poor people would be accepted in Heaven after their death in this world and they would live forever happily there.

So then, what should we ask the God for?  The answer should be poverty, since poor men can be accepted in Heaven to live happy forever there and rich men cannot be allowed to enter into Heaven.

The existence of the God and Heaven, poor and rich in this world, and judgment on dead men are all interconnected.

Christ Jesus in Tibet

A Russian explorer in the 19th century found an old document on unknown or lost years of Christ Jesus in a Buddhist temple in Tibet and wrote a book on it. 

It is said that it is within a realm of possibility that Christ Jesus travelled India, Persia, and Tibet, although life of Christ Jesus between 13 and 30 years old is not reported in the Gospels and other authentic documents.

One episode in the book is as follows:

A spy sent by the Roman authority asked Christ Jesus whether or not Caesar had divine authority and Caesar was the highest existence among men.  

Christ Jesus answered that there was none who was perfect, but there were sick people, so that those given such a mission as Caesar's by the God should take care of them through means provided in sacred laws given them by the God. Jesus further said, "Mercy and fairness are the two best products that are given Caesar by the God.  If Caesar observed them, his reputation would be brilliant."  And Jesus added: "But if Caesar did otherwise, exercising his power beyond limits so as to make lives of people put at risk, he would incur displeasure of the great judge and should publicly bring disgrace on himself."  

It is thought that the reason why there are no records of Christ Jesus traveling and spending some time in His ages between 13 and 30 years old is that there was none who accompanied Him.  But, it seems probable that there are still old books where journeys and deeds of Christ Jesus in Tibet are described.

Even some holy men in India and Tibet in modern ages have often mentioned Christ Jesus with respect.  It is also thought that young Christ Jesus travelled to the east looking for some ancient lost tribes of the Jewish people.  What's more, there is a passage in such an old book in Tibet that Jesus was chosen so as to tell people the teachings of the Buddha. 

However, I think that Christ Jesus travelled all the world, including Rome, capitals of ancient India, China, etc. in His young ages to see wealth, prosperity, and wretchedness of the human world.  Before Satan later showed Christ Jesus the glory of the world when tempting Him, Christ Jesus should have known it well.   

Anyway, it is strange that the Gospels do not show a scene where His disciples asked Christ Jesus what He had been doing in His ages between 13 and 30 years old, while Christ Jesus had supernatural power and spiritual power.  Was He making time travel? 

(Note: A precursor to Holger Kersten is Nicolas Notovitch, a Russian war correspondent, who visited India and Tibet in the late 19th century. While there, Mr. Notovitch learned of the life of Saint Issa, the "best of the Sons of men." Mr. Notovitch chronicles the life of Saint Issa, whom he identifies as Jesus, and tells how Saint Issa grew in wisdom and knowledge while attending the ancient Indian university at Nalanda. However, Mr. Notovitch’s work was discredited by one J. Archibald Douglas, who claims that Mr. Notovitch never visited the monastery of Hemis (where he purportedly learned of Saint Issa).

Mark 3, King James Version

28 Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation.
30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
31 There came then his brethren and his mother, and, standing without, sent unto him, calling him.
32 And the multitude sat about him, and they said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren without seek for thee.
33 And he answered them, saying, Who is my mother, or my brethren?
34 And he looked round about on them which sat about him, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!
35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

Now the global concern is how long the current war in Ukraine will continue.

I got signs indicating the numbers 2 and 7, which might mean the war will continue from February to July. I also have a feeling that Russian troops will use chemical weapons or cause a nuclear incident in Ukraine. But, these signs might indicate that the confliction will continue from 2022 to 2027 or the aftermath of the war will extend from 2022 to 2027.

However, the corona-pandemic has not yet ended. Its effect might still persist from 2022 to 2027.

Looking back to history, after WWII, the U.S. and Europe enjoyed relatively peace period from 1960s to 1990s, which ended in 2001 with the 9/11 terror attack by a radical Islamic group. Thereafter, the War on Terror began, and the global finance crisis erupted, leading to the election of the first black President of the U.S. as response to these crises based on disillusion to elite white Americans. The world seemed to further promote movements toward democracy, justice, peace and harmonization. But, Christ Jesus said:

(Matthew 12) 

43 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.

44 Then he saith, I will return into my house from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.

Indeed, in the late 2010s, a kind of rich and abnormal man Trump was elected as U.S. President, intensifying the division in the U.S. society.  Meanwhile, China has started to exhibit its ambition to pursue global hegemony against the U.S. while it had been regarded as a kind of friendly country to the West from 1980s to 2000s, following international rules and progressing toward democracy.  In addition, China has not yet fully cooperated with the world in efforts to clarify the cause of the corona-pandemic that started in China in 2019.  Russia had been in a relatively peaceful state after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, but along with expansion of Putin's authoritarian power through 2000s and 2010s, Russia interfered militarily with the Syrian civil war and finally launched the war against Ukraine.

Therefore, the signs 2 and 7 I observed recently can be interpreted as 2022 and 2027 when wars triggered by Russia and China might occur as we are now observing the war in Ukraine.       

Indeed, as the year 2060 is approaching when the end of the world would start according to Isaac Newton's prediction, situations in the world should be more complicated and dangerous with pandemics, wars, internal division within the U.S., etc.  It is as if evil spirits came back to the world although the world looked hopeful in terms of prevalence of democracy and peace till Trump's presidency.

So, this pandemic and the war in Ukraine must be part of the prelude to the decisive year of 2060.  The world is no longer a place for comparative peace, though with peripheral conflicts, and globally-expanding prosperity as we saw in 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s.  We may have to live under heavy stress with a concern about a major tragedy leading to collapse of the human civilization.  

However, the Bible promises hope to believers:

Acts 2, King James Version

18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:

19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:

21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.

The biggest hope is the Christ Jesus would come to the human world second time to save the world from facing the end of the world in this 21st century.

At the Critical Moment of the Fate of the Mankind in terms of Theology

Pandemics are terrible and wars are horrible.  But, a false Christ is worse, since it will be a sign of the worst expected to come later.

(Matthew 24)
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

Now is the era 2,000 years after the first coming of Christ Jesus to the human world.  The end of the period started with the first coming of Christ Jesus should come at last.

The real meaning of the Gospels indicating the circumstances, deeds, teachings, etc. of Christ Jesus around AD 30 is to show the battles between the God and Satan.  The God used Christ Jesus, and Satan used devils, evil spirits, and bad guys and betrayers brainwashed by Satan.

Satan could kill Christ Jesus, but could not destroy His teachings.  From the beginning, it was impossible for Satan to destroy the Son of the God.  It is apparent that if Christ Jesus as a man was killed in the human world, He would continue to live in the spirit world.  So, the victory of the God had been assured from the beginning.  But, poor Satan could not stop fighting the God even if it should be punished severely by the God.  Or, Satan might think that it would be its victory if it could make men get corrupted despite their receiving teachings of Christ Jesus.       

As we look back to the history, human beings have progressed somehow in terms of humanity and respect for peace and love through these 2,000 years, but it looks that the level of achievement is still low and not enough.

After Abraham, the God gave a moratorium of 2,000 years till the first coming of Christ Jesus.  And, the God gave another moratorium of 2,000 years from  the first coming of Christ Jesus to the present day.  So, truly the first 2,000 years were before Christ Jesus and the second 2,000 years have been after Christ Jesus.  And, now we are entering into the new 2,000 years of the extension period with Christ Jesus.

But, Satan would surely attack fiercely human beings to prevent the teaching of Christ Jesus from further spreading before we enter into the next 2,000-year period.  And, it is forecasted that Satan will send a false Christ to the human world to misguide the human beings. 

Indeed, most people of today seem to have been already brainwashed by Satan using money and wealth as its tools.  And most of people seem to be revering Satan as a god.  They seem to be thinking that they have to show their obedience to Satan so as to earn money and more money.  Therefore, before the human history can enter into the next 2,000-year period, they should drastically change their ways of believing and living.  They should change commonsense, religions, and views on the world, death and life, good and evil, etc.

This must be a revolution to be accomplished through hard times, global crises, and many tragedies.  So, this pandemic and the war in Ukraine happening in the early 21st century should be viewed and understood from this theological and historical perspective. 

In other word, we are not in the ordinary time in history but at the critical moment of the fate of the mankind.

Luke 3, King James Version

21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened,
22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.
23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

Chaos Should Continue till the 2nd Coming of Christ Jesus

The Bible tells how Christ Jesus would come to this world:

(Matthew 24)
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

It seems that the  "stars" represent the U.S. and the E.U. as their flags have stars on their surfaces.  The "moon" seems to represent Islamic countries as well as China as they respect the lunar calendar.  Even the old national flag of Russia or the Soviet Union shows a sickle of the moon-like shape.  The "moon" must mean Islamic countries, China, and Russia.

But more horrible is the prediction that "the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken."  It implies that the global order and systems led and supported by America and Europe would be destroyed.

In this context, the on-going war in Ukraine should be a part of the prelude to the Second Coming of Christ Jesus.  In other words, before the Second Coming of Christ Jesus, radical Islamic groups, Russia, China, and other autocratic nations should be changed to democratic countries.  And, the world should become the pure arena for battles between evil and the sacred.

Therefore, the current war in Ukraine should lead to collapse of Russia and China in the long term.  It might take decades more.  And then, the current global political and economic systems supported and led by America and Europe should come to crumble away.

However, if people came to read and understand the meaning of the Bible from a more spiritual view, as Swedenborg recommended, people should not need to rely on global political and economic systems supported and led by America and Europe.  When the world becomes more spiritual, Christ Jesus should come to this world.  But, it will take decades more.  In other word, destabilization and messy conflicts in the world should continue till the end of the 21st century.

John 3, King James Version

22 After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
24 For John was not yet cast into prison.
25 Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.
26 And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
27 John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven.
28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.

"How can Satan cast out Satan?" - The Spirit of God Can Cast out Devils

The Spirit of God Can Cast out Devils 

There are many bad guys in this world who are causing unhappiness for others.  Most of rich people are bad guys as they cause unhappiness for others.  But it is devils that occupy the minds and hearts of such rich people.  And, saving this world means to save the poor from the rich controlled by devils.  Therefore saving this world means to cast out devils from rich men, and then the kingdom of God should come to the poor.   Accordingly, Christ Jesus said that we have to hope that devils would be cast out by the Spirit of Gold.

(Matthew 12)
28 But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you.

However, this word suggests that devils in rich men can be cast out only by the Spirit of God.  It means that this world can be improved only through faith in the God.

In this human world, there are many rich men controlled by devils and brainwashed by Satan.  When such rich men die, their souls should be guided by devils to the hells.  And, in the hells, they would be directly ruled by Satan.

But poor men who are inflicted and damaged by rich men would be accepted in Heaven after their death in this world.  Nonetheless, while they live in this world, if the Spirit of the God helped and protected them from rich men controlled by Satan, these poor men could live in peace and grace even in this world.  Therefore, it is highly recommended that poor men have faith in the God so that the Spirit of the God would cast out devils from rich men who are making them suffer.

Devils are spiritual entities.  They come from the spirit world to this world.  And, after men leave this world when they die, they should see devils in the spirit world.  Without protection from the God, no one can be safe in the afterlife.  But, the souls of poor men should be protected by the Spirits of the God or Angels from devils and Satan in the afterlife.

Being rich in this human world means being controlled by devils.  Being poor means that they have to have faith in the God so as to be protected from devils who are using rich men to make the poor suffer.  This is part of truth Christ Jesus made manifest.

24 And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
25 And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.
26 And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end.

"he that doeth truth cometh to the light" - Power in the Spirit World and Power in the Material World

Power in the Spirit World and Power in the Material World

A Japanese female notable psychic named Aiko Gibo visited Egypt about 30 years ago for a TV program where she was expected to see internally spirits of ancient Egyptians and their work to build Pyramids (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cptp9Dvl7s). 

At sight, she saw the Great Pyramids of Giza being built by use of super-natural power.  The main engineer or the key architect at the time, named Hemiunu, told her through spiritual communications that although it was difficult for her and others in the 20th century to understand, there were excellent engineers with super-natural power in Egypt when the Pyramids in Giza were being built.  Her spiritual communications with Hemiunu, etc. who led the work to build the Pyramids can be trusted based on her achievement in the field of clairvoyance.  She was tested on her super-natural ability by scientists, etc. in the U.S., the U.K., China, the Soviet Union, and even in Indonesia to be found so excellent.  Even Uri Geller admitted her ability.  

According to the main engineer, the stones for the Pyramids lost weight almost by half during the work due to super-natural power of his fellow engineers although it was laborers who actually moved the stones.  She also spiritually saw that gods of some holy animals and ancient Egyptians cooperated in the work to build the Pyramids.

But, can men reduce the weight of a big stone by use of their super-natural power?  The modern science should answer that it is impossible. 

However, in Tibet, it is said that there were holy disciplinants of Buddhism who could float in air or walk on air across a river.  It is said that they acquired such super-natural power through hard training in yoga and other spiritual learning.  And, even the Bible told that Christ Jesus walked in air on a lake.  But, of course, modern people cannot easily accept the idea that the Great Pyramids in Giza were built by use of super-natural power of the engineers at the time. 

When the female psychic entered inside the Pyramid for King Khufu, she was terrified as she felt her body was being lifted up to the ceiling of a corridor inside the Pyramid.  She could not even reach the King's Chamber.  Some ancient super-natural power might still remain inside the Pyramid.

Super-natural power is one of key factors in work of Christ Jesus in the Bible.  To believe in Christ Jesus and the Gospels must mean to believe that Christ Jesus actually used super-natural power.  Indeed, this universe and the material world were created by the God from the spirit world.  Therefore, Christ Jesus, the Son of the God, must have been able to use super-natural power superseding physical power such as gravity.

Therefore, there is a possibility that a man can acquire super-natural power resisting gravity through special spiritual training or religious learning to enhance his spiritual ability.  Indeed, there was one Japanese teacher of yoga, named Masaharu Naruse, who succeeded in floating in air some 30 years ago, which was taken into pictures. (https://twitter.com/hikarinonakade_/status/855691866078969856?lang=hi) 

Power in the spirit world should supersede power in this material world.  And, it must be part of the teachings of Christ Jesus.
