(A Re-post)
Luke 21:25-26 KJV
25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
Genesis 1:14 KJV
14 Then God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;
1 Chronicles 12:32 KJV
32 And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.
When the media reported (November 2007) on the town of Orme, Tennessee being “out of water,” and the residents either faced with moving or regressing back to the pioneer days when there was no public water supplies, the name “Orem” kept coming to my mind (my spirit was stirred about that particular word as having prophetic meaning), so I did some research and what I found was interesting.
In the Da Vinci Code (a heretical book authored by Dan Brown to cast doubt upon the deity of the Lord Jesus), the “Orem Court” is mentioned because it is one of the headquarters of Opus Dei – a secretive Catholic organization that promotes hyper-Catholic conservatism; actually no one knows the “in’s and out’s of their dogmas for their individual and group activities are closely guarded. It is believed by some conspiracy theorists that Opus Dei has agents in our government who influence the political direction of the country toward ultra-conservative Catholic theology. Supreme Court Justice Scalia, Judge Robert Bork, Senators Rick Santorum and Sam Brownback, columnist Robert Novak and former head of the FBI, Louis Freeh are allegedly members of Opus Dei. However, Opus Dei claims no one in Washington belongs to their organization.
The “Orme Court” is located in Westminster, London (a suburb of London), and has both an “Orme Lane” and an “Orme Square.” It is further interesting that the present Pope, Benedict XVI, has a gematria of 666 and Opus Dei is associated with the number 666 in London. The city of London is laid out with the numerical factor of 666 as Harry Hinde points out in his book, 666: The Divine Harmony:
London to a measure of 666
Buckingham Palace - Westminster Cathedral = 666 metres.
Buckingham Palace - Wellington Monument = 666 metres.
Buckingham Palace - Victoria Station = 666 metres.
Buckingham Palace - Houses of Parliament = 1332 metres = 2 x 666.
Downing Street - St Jame’s Palace = 666 metres.
Downing Street - New Scotland Yard = 666 metres.
Downing Street - National Gallery = 666 metres.
Westminster Cathedral - Queen Victoria Memorial = 666 metres.
Queen Victoria Memorial - Duke of Wellington’s Memorial = 666 metres.
St Paul’s Cathedral - Bank of England = 666 metres.
St Paul’s Cathedral - Barbican = 666 metres.
Tower of London - London Bridge = 666 metres.
Bank of England - Cannon Street Station = 666 metres.
Bank of England - Fenchurch Street Station = 666 metres.
Bank of England - Liverpool Street Station = 666 metres.
Bank of England - London Bridge = 666 metres.
Lambeth Palace - Westminster Abbey = 666 metres.
Marble Arch - Roosevelt Memorial = 666 metres.
Piccadilly Circus - St James’s Palace = 666 metres.
St Pancras - Euston Station = 666 metres.
Southwark Bridge - Blackfriars Bridge = 666 metres.
Hungerford Bridge - Westminster Bridge = 666 metres.
Westminster Bridge - Lambeth Bridge = 666 metres.
Westminster Abbey - Piccadilly Circus = 1332 metres = 2 x 666.
Piccadilly Circus - Wellington’s Memorial = 1332 metres = 2 x 666.
Downing Street (home of British Prime Minister Tony Blair) equidistant to:
National Gallery = 666 metres.
St James’s Square = 666 metres.
St James’s Palace = 666 metres.
New Scotland Yard = 666 metres.
Home Office = 666 metres.
The Old County Hall = 666 metres.
Albert Memorial - Natural History Museum = 666 metres.
Royal Albert Hall - Victoria and Albert Museum = 666 metres.
Oxford Circus - St James’s Palace = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
National Theatre - St Paul’s Cathedral = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
National Theatre - Westminster Abbey = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
Admiralty Arch - Buckingham Palace = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
Admiralty Arch - Oxford Circus = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
Guildhall - Walls of Tower of London = 2 x 666 = 1332 metres.
St Paul’s equidistant to:
Victoria Memorial = 5 x 666 = 3330 metres.
Hanover Square = 5 x 666 = 3330 metres.
Cavendish Square = 5 x 666 = 3330 metres
Because of this association with the number 666, some prophecy theorists believe the False Prophet will come from London; a few believe the False Prophet is Prince Charles because of his promotion of New Age religion and the Gaia Movement (the earth is a living organization and is meant to be worshipped). I am not sure of how that connects with the Pope since his throne is in Rome. However, while many incorrectly mention Wall Street as the financial capital of the world, London has been and remains the center of banking and commerce. All capital markets flow through the central bank of London including Wall Street. Nothing in this world in terms of “capital” exists without finding is way though the central bank of London. That is a fact that John Daniel expertly covers in Volume II of his amazing book, Scarlet and the Beast (I highly recommend that all Christians read this three volume set of books if you want to know the truth about the secret societies and the headquarters of Mystery Babylon; you can order the books at his website – www.scarletandthebeast.com).
I had a little experience with the banking cartel headquartered in London back in the late 1980’s. For a short time, I left the full-time Christian ministry and returned to corporate America (Finance and Credit - my vocation before being called to the ministry; I learned the hard way that was a mistake for when the Lord truly calls a man, He does not take back the calling – see Romans 11:29). Anyway, to make a long story shorter, I got involved, without my knowledge, with a small group of crooked money brokers who convinced me that I could purchase a cash producing ($400,000 to the bottom line) company in Fort Worth without putting any money down and with little personal investment. The so-called money brokers had arranged what is called an “arbitrage loan” with other money brokers in England. An arbitrage loan (corporations do it on a daily basis) is one in which the loan proceeds exceed the amount required to finance the capital project. It is collateralized by Corporate Bonds and Stocks. The interest on the maturation of the short term bonds and stocks (in my case - five years) pays off both principal and interest with a surplus amount leftover that goes to the original borrower. I spent about three months in conversations with the money brokers here and the ones in England. The bottom line is, I lost my shirt as well as did a dear friend that had helped me with what we thought was a guaranteed project. I even had a guaranteed loan date from the money broker in England.
The truth is they were all involved with an international money scheme to defraud honest people out of their money. They got the “cash cow” and we ended up the losers. It all hit me in the face when I received a call from the FBI telling me to come to their office for an interview. I had filed a complaint with the District Attorney’s office in Fort Worth, Texas who in turn knew the FBI had these guys under surveillance. I was to testify before the Grand Jury, but it was never brought to trial. The FBI agent handling the case told me they shut down the scam and put the money brokers out of business both here and in London. Anyway, that was my personal experience with international finance via the London Banks. Much corruption and fraud takes place everyday in the banking cartel headquartered in London. If I had time, it would amaze you at the depth of secrecy and corruption involving world financial schemes originating from London and Wall Street to control the money systems of “all nations.” It is extremely elaborate and complex and is like a James Bond movie only it is real. There is no doubt that London is one of the headquarters of the New World Order and the Beast capitalistic system, just as is Washington, D.C. and New York City. Both London and our nation’s capital are also laid out in carefully planned Satanic “ley-lines” of Freemasonry (David Bay of Cutting Edge Ministries has excellent articles on “ley-lines” – http://cuttingedge.com). The Freemasons own both Washington D.C. and London and that is why you find the number 666 stamped on the design of both cities.
Well, I kind of got off base on the subject for today, but thought you may be interested in a brief expose of the connection of Opus Dei to the “Court of Orme,” the Catholic Church, the number 666 and the city of London. They are all related in various ways.
“Orme” is a convoluted subject and covers many topics. It is heavily involved with the occult especially Alchemy (the science of transforming a lower metal like iron into a precious metal like gold). In the spiritual realm, Alchemy means the transformation of lower humankind into a higher spiritual being, even a god. It is a favorite subject of New Age and one of their tenets for teaching that all mankind is really little gods that just need to get in touch with themselves. Once they achieve nirvana by getting in touch with their spirit guides of the universe (actually demons) they are transformed into the higher sphere of the gods and themselves become gods. This is the identical lie Satan told Adam and Eve and mankind is still buying his lie even though after 6000 years of human existence, the evidence is obvious mankind has not attained godhood, but is the fallen creature God says we are – just open your eyes and look about you and what do you see – murder, rape, theft, lying, cheating, adultery, fornication, pornography, foul language, nudity, sex exploitation, homosexuality, idolatry, greed, pride, racism, hate, war, pedophilia, deception, apostasy, etc. to name a few. There is no godhood in man except the godly in Christ Jesus, and even then, they are not gods, but redeemed fallen creatures.
Occultists believe “Orme” is the basics of eternal life and is centered in the eight monoatomic elements – ruthhnium, rhodium, palladium, silver (the light palladium group), osmium, iridium, platinum, and gold (the heavy platinum group). These metals are thought to reach a state of superconductivity under certain special conditions and lose their metal composition evolving into the earth’s energy fields and magnetic force. It is also believed these eight elements are found in combination with gold. The ancient occultist thought if they converted “Orme” to a liquid and drank it, they would live long lives without sickness or disease. They even point to the pre-flood world as evidence for the existence of “Orme” in the form of “the white powder of gold” as contributing to the longevity of the antediluvians. In addition, the ancient philosophers believed Orme in the form of gold (the white powder) was the explanation for the mystery behind the Melchizekek priesthood – that he was super-human or an extra-terrestrial.
Two alchemists, Lapidus and Eirenaeus Philalethes, believed Orme in its gold form was both spiritual and Messianic:
Lapidus and Eirenaeus Philalethes said:
“The Philosopher’s Stone is no stone, but a powder with the power to transmute base metals into gold and silver.” They go on to claim: “The stone which is to be the transformer of metals into gold must be sought in the precious metals in which it is enclosed and contained. It is called a stone by virtue of its fixed nature, and it resists the action of fire as successfully as any stone -- but its appearance is that of a very fine powder, impalpable to the touch, fragment as to smell, in potency a most penetrative spirit, apparently dry, and yet unctuous, and easily capable of tingeing a plate of metal. The stone does not exist in nature, but has to be prepared by art, in obedience to nature’s laws. Thus, you see our stone is made of gold alone, yet it is not common gold.” Gardner [4] has asked: “Given the facilities of today’s scientific advancement and our knowledge of atoms and nuclei, is it possible (as it was in the distant past) to convert gold [and other precious metals] into a sweet-tasting, ingestible white powder? Is it possible for that powder to outweigh its optimum weight of gold? Is it also possible for that same powder to under-weigh itself and to weigh less than nothing? Under such circumstances, is it possible that the powder can disappear from sight into another dimension of space-time and then be returned to its original state? The answer to each of these questions is yes -- for this is the post-Star Fire mystery of the phoenix, and it is the key to the Messianic bloodline enhancement through the fire-stone.” (www.halexandria.org).
No doubt, this is occult gobbly-gook, but not in the sense it is not real to the occultist and the alchemists who believe “Orme” is the basis of eternal life and the fountain of youth. They actually believe it and act upon such knowledge, which daily is being fed to them by the father of lies, Satan, and his demons (I Tim. 4:1).
Now with that background, what is the meaning of the “Sign of Orme”, Tennessee? Why did a little town of 145 people make headline news among all the cities and towns that are experiencing severe drought? Well, obviously the fact it ran out of water. However, I think there is a deeper spiritual meaning and a “sign” of what God is doing in this wicked nation (some get upset with me for constantly referring to our nation as wicked; well, I will stop calling it that when we repent and turn back to God; in the meantime, I will call a spade a spade).
Notice in the Scriptures at the top of this article the mention of “signs” in the heavens in the last days. Genesis 1:14 says God placed the sun, moon, and stars in the heavens not just to give light upon the earth, but for “signs.” The Greek word for “signs” is seemeia and means, “that which is indicative of things to come; a prediction or harbinger of future events.” The Hebrew word for signs is “la otot” (oth) meaning an “omen” or a “signal.” God places “signs” in the heavens that affect the earth and he expects the Church to be like the men of Issachar and understand the signs of the times. It is not God’s fault if the sleeping lethargic Church, which has no insight into the last days because it is too busy majoring on other things like prosperity and chasing after men and their movements (Rick Warren and His “Purpose-to-Deceive Driven Life”), fails to understand the signs He is placing in the heavens and earth in fulfillment of His Word.
The Hebrew meaning of “Orme” is The Tree of Life. While the occult alchemists believe the “white powder gold” is The Tree of Life, the Scriptures teach that is figurative of the Lord Jesus:
Revelation 2:7 KJV
7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life , which is in the midst of the paradise of God.
Revelation 22:2, 14 KJV
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life , which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life , and may enter in through the gates into the city.
So what is the spiritual meaning of the drought in Orme, Tennessee in which there is no water except what is brought in from surrounding areas? I believe the Lord choose “little Orme,” Tennessee (a careful study of the Bible reveals that God chooses small things to reveal His glory in order that man cannot claim any credit for what He has done and is doing) as a sign to warn the United States that He is the true Life and the true God of the United States who alone has the water of Life, not Allah nor Buddha or any of the Hindu gods this nation now worships. It is a warning of the dire consequences of turning from Him to worship and serve other gods. Idolatry brings spiritual drought and death to those who bow down to other gods. It is a forewarning to this nation that its very survival depends upon the God of heaven. False gods cannot quench the thirst of a spiritually bankrupt nation. The drought of “little Orme” is God speaking to this nation that its lifeblood is drying up for the people are no longer drinking at the well-springs of God’s Word, but are whoring after other gods that have no life and no spirit.
On the last day of the Great Feast (the Feast of Tabernacles), Jesus cried out:
John 7:37-39 NKJV
37 "On the last day , that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water." 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified."
The source of “real life” for any nation or any people is the Lord Jesus Christ who gave His lifeblood as the required ransom price for the sins of the world. Only Jesus can satisfy the thirst and end the spiritual drought in the lives of people. The sign of “little Orme” is the Lord telling the people of this nation that like Orme, Tennessee, that suffers from physical drought, America suffers from a greater spiritual drought the politicians in Washington cannot solve. Drought as a sign of a nation’s calamity originates from heaven (the cause and effect – the cause is the sinful nation) as God withholds the rain and the effects are felt on earth – thus signs from heaven, and on earth distress and perplexity of nations.
There is a second sign from the drought in Orme, Tennessee – a warning to the United States of its New Age gods and its bowing to Satan’s New World Order. As Orme is associated with the occult and the alchemists that believe it is a symbol of the Tree of Life, God is speaking through “little Orme,” and warning the United States its love affair with the occult will result in its destruction. The New World Order and its New Age religion do not lead to the Tree of Life, but the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, which Satan is. The two trees in the Garden of Eden are figurative of the struggle between Jesus, the authentic Tree of Life and Satan, the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil (the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil does not represent the goodness of God, but the goodness of man that God condemns for there are none good, no not a one. New Age man thinks he is a little god and not a sinner, but his false claim to goodness is evil and only leads to the judgment and the Lake of Fire).
God spoke through the drought in Orme, Tennessee, and warned America there is only one Tree of life and only one person who can quench the spiritual thirst in this land – the Lord Jesus Christ! God is calling America to drink of the water of His Son by believing in Him; then out of the belly of the people of this nation will flow, not filth, as see in our land today, but the purest of living water. If America truly wants holy water, then they will not find it in the Catholic Church or from New Age gurus, but in the Son of God – Jesus Christ. Allah cannot give this water and neither can Barack Obama and members of Congress who are foolish to endorse a dead dry barren religion that originated from the demented mind of a deceived false prophet.
If the United States does not recognize what God is doing in this spiritual barren land by understanding His signs, then physical calamities will become even worse and major cities like Atlanta may one day turn on the water faucet, but nothing will come out, but air and dust! The other side of God's physical judgments is FLOODS. When both drought and floods are upon the land at the same time, then it is for certain divine intervention.
Deuteronomy 28:20, 23-24 NASB
20 "The LORD will send upon you curses, confusion, and rebuke, in all you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken Me.
23 And the heaven which is over your head shall be bronze , and the earth which is under you, iron. 24 The LORD will make the rain of your land powder and dust; from heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed."
The town of Orme, Tennessee was a “sign” from God, but is any of the prophets listening who will speak to this nation and warn it to turn from its sin or face an even worse calamity that will affect not only 60% of the nation, but the whole nation.
Please pray this nation will repent at the judgments God is sending to it as our primary problem is spiritual not financial or economic.
A word from Jeremiah comes to mind:
Jeremiah 5: 3 NASB
"O Lord, do not Thine eyes look for truth?
Thou hast smitten them, But they did not weaken;
Thou hast consumed them, But they refused to take correction.
They made their faces harder than rock;
They have refused to repent."
The shepherds of the land remain silent on the need to repent and do not love holiness and righteousness for many are caught-up in covetousness!
