'Ark of the Covenant' about to be unveiled?
WND ^ | June 24, 2009 | staff

Posted on 06/25/2009 6:59:04 AM PDT by VRWCTexan

The patriarch of the Orthodox Church of Ethiopia says he will announce to the world Friday the unveiling of the Ark of the Covenant, perhaps the world's most prized archaeological and spiritual artifact, which he says has been hidden away in a church in his country for millennia.....

Abuna Pauolos, in Italy for a meeting with Pope Benedict XVI this week, told the news agency, "Soon the world will be able to admire the Ark of the Covenant described in the Bible as the container of the tablets of the law that God delivered to Moses and the center of searches and studies for centuries."

The announcement is expected to be made at 2 p.m. Italian time from the Hotel Aldrovandi in Rome

Doesn’t God know what is going to happen?

The plan is given. But as to where each individual will end up, no. Actually, Christ said I have foretold you all things. Paul said in ICorinthians 10:11 Now all these things 'happened' unto them for ensamples (examples): and they are *written* for our admonition, (warning) upon whom the ends of the world (age) are come.

Yet Christ Himself said it is NOT given for all to understand, reason he spoke in parables. Nothing new under the sun, but Judgment Day does NOT happen until the opportunity for each and everyone to know with the full knowledge and that cannot happen so long as we are in flesh bodies.

Ecclesiastes 1:9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; (note.... 'thing') and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, 'See this is new?' it hath been already of old time, which was before us.

11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.

He will forever into eternity always be the Heavenly Father, but He does not know yet who all will choose to be with Him. There would be NO point to having this flesh age where the remembrance of what happened before hidden, if He already knew who he was going to have to destroy.

Oh, I might add the Heavenly Father does know who He can trust, they are called the elect and have already proved themselves. But being the 'JUST' and perfection of JUSTICE, all who desire to 'see' the kingdom must come through this flesh age, regardless if one was justified before this flesh age.

No, it has to be opened before it becomes a weapon.

I rather doubt that he believes in such things anyhow, don’t you?

So He doesn’t know everyone’s future? Thanks, you’re one of the very few people I’ve talked with, that do not believe God knows all, including the future.

You might want to review Romans 8, Ephesians 1 and Isaiah chapters 44 and 46.

Review for what.... in particular Ephesians 1 Paul clearly says that some were predestined before the 'overthrow' to be perfect in the love of the Heavenly Father.

If God knows who He can trust, then He must know before He creates us, what is going to happen, doesn’t He?

There is nothing 'free' to make choices if the individual's future has already been predestined. However, that is not to say that some were set aside because of the love for the Heavenly Father. Some sided with Lucifer and then that middle bunch waited to see which way the wind was blowing. We see the very same 'minds' replicated upon this earth today.

Can God create a rock too heavy for him to lift?

The Ark is very “electric” with all that gold it made it deadly to the touch....

This fits in with a recent documentary, “Bloodline” available on netflix, where the Jesus and Mary marriage talked about in the DaVinci Code, including speculation on the actual location of where BOTH bodies are located, signals actually a rebirth of the Christian faith based on Jesus the man and the things he taught and not the “miracles” the church used to “sell” him and them as the only place to “get to the Lord”

I expect a world wide TV special on 12-23-12 to explain all this and why the divinity of Jesus is not connected to the “magic and miracles” that the church used to say that Jesus was supernatural.....thereby making them the exclusive providers of God and a way to get to Heaven....this special will also explain how certain things associated and taught about Jesus were misunderstood, and connect man more directly to the Lord, without the “need” for any churches or organized religion, (althought churches will always be a place for fellowship and good deeds...)

That will mark the end of the “world” and the beginning of the new age, the “second” coming of Jesus, (as a man) and show the importance of the union of man and woman....this as marked by the Mayan calendar as the end of the world, (as we know it)

We’ll see if he gets regulation of the US economy turned over to the Fed. If he does that, the Fed will use that economic authority over the US as a representative of the IMF which will regulate the world economy. Once that is in place - everything else will fall into place.
