Heretics From History Forecasted The Apocalypse For 2023
Daily Caller ^ | December 28, 2022 9:04 AM ET | KAY SMYTHE NEWS AND COMMENTARY WRITER

So-called heretics from history had some major predictions for 2023, and most of them revolve around the apocalypse.

Let’s start with Nostradamus, a French astrologer who forecast the arrival of the Antichrist, World War III, mass depopulation, a drying ocean, and the burning down of the British monarchy — all in 2023. In his writings, Nostradamus predicted “seven months Great War [and] people dead through evil” as our apocalypse appetizer, according to the New York Post.

As for Buckingham Palace, apparently it’s going to see a “celestial fire on the royal edifice,” the outlet noted. Some might argue that this is a metaphor for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix show, where they highlight the fact that the only reason the Royal Family exists is for the press. Could we be moving to a whole new chapter in the relationship between the Royals and We The Taxpayers who keep them in their castles?

For his final ode to the year, Nostradamus wrote that in or around 2023, “the antichrist very soon annihilates the three. Twenty-seven years his war will last. The unbelievers are dead, captive, exiled. With blood, human bodies, water red and hail covering the year.”

What fun, said no one, ever!

The French forecaster was not alone in his belief that the Antichrist was on his way. Christians see the drying of the Euphrates River, described in Revelation, as a sign that the Antichrist shall return. Academics and scholars have pointed to climate change and agriculture as the reasons for the river drying up, but this does not dispel the predictions made in the Bible. Either way, we’re on our way to a humanitarian crisis in the region, according to Al Jazeera.

Then there’s Baba Vanga, a Bulgarian psychic and healer who made some startlingly accurate predictions for the year. While Baba Vanga isn’t exactly a heretic in the traditional sense, the power of foresight like hers has typically been met with labels of Hellish undertones or mental illness — despite the consistency of correctness.

Baba Vanga predicted famine in India and a drop in temperatures that will result in a plague of locusts. While India is certainly struggling with crop productions, we here in the U.S. have had a massive drop in temperature that could easily have drastic knock-on effects into 2023 crop yields.

Farmers spent much of 2022 warning Americans that there are significant issues with our domestic food production. Baba Vanga also forecast water shortages, which we’ve already experienced in 2022 and will likely get worse as we roll into 2023.

Oh, and then there’s the pandemic that’ll emerge from the Siberian tundra, mass natural disasters, and the arrival of alien life via an asteroid.

Not to go too far down the conspiracy rabbit hole, but America has been waiting for the release of an All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office report that was due in October on various unidentified aerial phenomena. Naval officials have previously stated that the release of related data would pose significant national security risks, so perhaps the aliens have already landed and our government doesn’t want us to know just yet?

Finally, it should be noted that some brilliant minds from modern history have already foreshadowed the coming financial apocalypse of 2023. Sensible folks could see the forest for the trees in early 2022, and liquidated all assets just like economic soothsayer Michael Burry. If you haven’t, go and do it today. Also, buy seeds.

“perhaps the aliens have already landed and our government doesn’t want us to know just yet?” from the article.

Lol.

The gang of chimps in DC couldn’t find aliens if they flew over their heads:

Here is a fun exercise in Nostradamus predictions. On YouTube there is a series of show with David McCallum called Ancient Prophecies. They are quite old now and filled with Nostradamus and other so called prophets. John Hogue, the Nostradamus expert in applying prophecies backward to events that have already happened is about 100%. The future looking prophecies they discussed that have now gone past the timeline stated are about 0% correct.

Of course Nostradamus put no date this quatrain much less 2023. Further, all of his prophecies are vague word salads that people project onto after the fact.

In quatrain 5.78, Nostradamus wrote:

“In the year 2023, the great king of terror will come from the sky. He will bring with him a great famine and plague, causing the death of many. His reign will be short, but the destruction he causes will be long-lasting.”

In quatrain 8.23, Nostradamus wrote:

“In 2023, a great leader will rise up in the East, uniting the nations under his banner. His rule will be just and fair, and he will be loved by all. He will bring peace to the world, and his reign will be long and prosperous.”

The Bible has the true test of a prophet.

What the Bible says about Test of a True Prophet

Deuteronomy 18:22

This is a simple test. If a man claims to be a prophet speaking in God’s name, God’s people should prove the veracity of the man’s predictions. If his prophecies do not come true, it is obvious that God is not speaking to him or through him. Such a man is a false prophet. We should neither fear his words nor feel compelled to obey them.

Even if the man’s prophecies do come to pass, we must beware. God warns us, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world” (I John 4:1). We need to be watching for the fruits of God’s Spirit in those who would claim to be His representatives.

Nostradamus prophecy: Quatrain 8, 23

Lettres trouvees de la roine les coffres, Point de subscrit sans aucun nom d'hauteur Par la police seront cach les offres. Qu'on ne scaura qui sera l'amateur. Letters are found in the queen's chests, no signature and no name of the author. The ruse will conceal the offers; so that they do not know who the lover is.

Nostradamus prophecy: Quatrain 5, 78

Les deux vnis ne tiendront longuement, Et dans treize ans au Barbare Strappe, Aux deux costez feront tel perdement, Qu'vn benira le Barque & sa cappe. The two will not be united for very long, And in thirteen years to the Barbarian Satrap: On both sides they will cause such loss That one will bless the Bark and its cope.

***Let’s start with Nostradamus,***

Remember that people have been adding to the prophecies of Nostradamus since he was first published.
In WW II there were many new anti-German prophecies made about the fall of Germany as so many of the Germans believed in him.

Remember how Jean Dixon was hyped in the 1960s till her death?
I remember the front page of the STAR tabloid with a screaming headline “JEAN DIXON SAYS NIXON WILL NOT RESIGN!”
That hit the news stands the very week Nixon resigned.

Ten years later, her publicity department was claiming she had actually said he WOULD resign.

Then there was the claim the Jupiter Effect of an alignment of the planets would wreck havoc on the Earth. From around the world and India those who cast horoscopes predicted the end in 1984! Nothing happened.
“New Age” groups claimed they had gotten together in Chaco Canyon, other ruins and holy places around the world, held hands and yelled “Ah-h-h-h-h” to realign the world and claimed they had prevented the disasters.

Apparently the New York Post forgot that Nostradamus was French, not English, so the “royal edifice” to him would probably mean Versailles, not Buckingham Palace.

Except Nostradamus didn’t write those. He didn’t assign years to his quatrains, so those are obvious fakes.

Do they specifically say “2023”? If so, that’s far more specific than any other prophecy I’ve ever read of his.
