The Writing’s On The Wall: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN

Posted on 01/23/2010 12:48:21 PM PST by klimeckg

Isn't it someting, that in one night, i.e. the vote in Massachusetts, Obamas kingdom seems to have come into turmoil, almost ending.

It reminds me of Daniel chapter 5 when Belshazzar, while having a party and drinking from the vessels of God's temple, he witnessed a hand appear and write on his wall. He needed Daniel to interpret the writting. That night he was slain and the Medio-Persia empire came into power and that was the end of Babylon.

MENE - God has numbered your kingdom and brought it to an end.

TEKEL - You have been weighed in the scales and found to be lacking.

PERES - Your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

I think the saying "The Writing's on the Wall" came from Daniel 5.

TEKEL - You have been weighed in the scales and found to be lacking.

PERES - Your kingdom has been divided and given to the Medes and Persians.

I have heard that this could also be referring to America.
