'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

Will Bill Clinton be there hoping to prove his controversial "nine commandments" theory?

Just to actually see one of the most important religious relics in History besides the Grail. It’s very exciting...

Don't those that actually touch it...immediately die?

So they say.

There is one priest at a time in charge of guarding it.

These guardian priests quickly develop cataracts, and have remarkably short lives.

We’ll see - tomorrow! If this is true... hang on, we’re mighty close to final things starting to pop, methinks.

It was the two last sentences of the article that really intrigued me: “The Book of Revelation says the Ark is in the temple of God in heaven (Rev. 11:19). Muslim scholars say it will be found near the end of times by the Mahdi – a messianic figure in Islam.”——found by the Mahdi-a messianic figure in Islam. Anyone know anything more about the Mahdi? Ping please.

The Ark is said to be a source of infinite power.

If Ethiopia and Israel had a lick of sense they would publicly announce that they will forbid Barak 0bama from ever touching it...

So it has the tablets and the pot of manna inside? I don't think so, but people like to promote and believe in ‘fairy’ tales and sprinkles of stardust.

For me, I am getting spooked. That is probably because the Democrat far Left is in power...but prophecy has something to do with it.

Obama has made clear he is for the redistribution of wealth from Nation to Nation that can only occur under a world taxing authority. That means world government to redistribute wealth, nation to nations. He gets what he wants because “he won the election” and Democrats control three branches out of four right now.

Obama has proposed new finance laws being introduced with the Fed as the ruler. The Fed is a part of the IMF. The IMF’s power of centralizing the “global financial rule” is a given as first step in the foundation of the world government.

Now we have article from Israel recently claiming BiBi is interested in rebuliding the temple and other articles as well.

We have the ark of the covenant showing up as a main artifact necessary for reestablishing the temple.

Obama is given mystical powers and status by the media in a global sense. We are told he is the “leader of the free world” where all wealth and power exist in creating a New World Order.

Anyway, don't get the implant! When Obama says “peace” don't believe it!
Love,
Sara

I was thinking the same thing. Also, why would the partiarch of the Orthodox Church of Ethiopia give everyone a "head's up" about this announcement, only to not follow through and actually unveil the Ark of the Covenant? If this turns out to be something less than what he is saying will happen, what would be the point? I guess we'll all find out tomorrow.
