From the article

Everything God created has a frequency at which it vibrates. This can be measured in a recurring curved pattern similar to waves in the ocean. There is an entire spectrum of wavelengths that light and sound operate in, also. It is through this that we have our traditional communication systems. But the computer has created a new language by “chopping up” these natural wavelengths in tiny little bits and converting them into the numbers 0-1-0-1 through our computer systems. This was something I had a little understanding of from my experience in music recording. However, I didn’t realize how pervasive this is:

EVERYTHING has now become “digitized”. We have chopped up creation into little fragments and put it into cyberspace in binary code through computers. Nothing is “curved” any more, he explained. Our communication is now recreated in such a way that we have removed the waves from it and replaced it with tiny straight lines in minute fragments. Through this, THE WHOLE WORLD IS SPEAKING THE SAME LANGUAGE. BUT IT IS NOT A LANGUAGE THAT GOD HAS CREATED – IT IS THE CREATION OF MAN. IT IS THE FULFILLMENT OF THE AGENDA OF SATAN TO RULE THE WORLD IN REBELLION AGAINST GOD.

The reason that this is so serious is what God said – “nothing shall be impossible for them.” This language of Babylon will ultimately enslave all who refuse to repent and surrender to God in these last days.

Whether it be one’s and zero’s or waves matters not. The intent is of the heart and computers don’t have one.

But they do have the uncanny ability of breaking down the barriers of knowledge by storing and retrieving tons of information.

Google as an example. The whole internet has been designed to shrink the world and the wilderness is getting harder to find.

But thanks to God that our hearts are forever a place of freedom and He will give us nothing that is beyond our ability to overcome.

So we are without excuses. The desire for God must increase. He is as close as the mention of His name.

Jesus - Yeshua - the pronunciation matters not. It the name of
the man on the cross
the man who walked on water
the man who fed the five thousand
the man who rose from the dead.

Whether you chop it up into ones and zeros our pronounce it in waves.

The Spirit is the same when it reaches the heart of man and transforms the dead.

You reference the *one language* but, what about the *one world* government and/or bank.

There are many powerful forces today leading/forcing us in that direction. Wouldn’t this be yet another sign?

“This whole universe is groaning under the burden of sin, the curse, and satanic tyranny. It longs for that Day when it will finally be over”

Child pornography, nambla, abortion (even after birth), music slandering God, his people and all that is good; Darfur, Sudan, China; pushing condoms, homosexual,and other forms of depravity into our schools and trying to take God completely out.

Your words burned true in my heart. We must wake up and pray for the lost, and prepare. We must ask God for wisdom in all we are to do & believe.

Thank you. (I really want to see Obama’s birth certificate now.

Analog good, digital bad. (That Amish lady crouched in the vegetable patch with her hand to her head had better be using an analog cell phone. A digital phone is certain damnation.)

Ages have ended before. A culture can keep going for a long time after it loses its sense of identity, just out of habit. The classic movie M is a remarkably mundane police procedural, and it looks a lot like ordinary cops and robbers doing ordinary things. The setting is Hitler's Germany of the late 1930s.

Ages have ended before. Common indicators include technological breakthroughs, pornography, inflation, sexual immorality, new diseases. And, frequently, a sign of a cultural order's final days is an explosion of apocalyptic hysteria. Some folks freak out, lose their bearings as well as their balls, and start shrieking about the immediate end of the world. They collect evidence to support their despairing panic, practice "newspaper exegesis," and sometimes lose control of their own sexual morality. (the most famous "end-times writer" of our generation, H.L., was on marriage #4 last time I heard...)

You might want to reconsider your effort to serve as an unpaid cheerleader for Satan's team. Do you really think it brings honor to the Lord of Armies, the God of Victory, and His Christ, to sow defeatist fatalism among His people? "Freak out! Panic! Armageddon is here, and there's not a thing you can do about it!"

Actually, there is. God is at work, building a new social order even as He discredits the central pillar of secular humanism. Those who hear have been quietly building for the future for several decades, now. Those who will not hear may be deafened by the din of the doomsayers, and have committed themselves to going down with the ship. Not to worry, God works through committed minorities, and the doers will, by His grace, make provision for their freaked out kin after the dust settles.

See my tagline.

The war between good and evil continues.

Here's an interesting site I found. It goes in depth into many of people’s backgrounds and associations.

Hah!! Another "literalist" gives his twist on end times.

Didn't the Millerites and JWs in the 19th century have a similar list using 19th century technology?

OK, let me preface this by saying that I do believe that there will be a final judgment for us all, but this article seems to be one of the more tin-hatty articles I've seen here on FR.

First, let me say that I don't believe that these are the end times. I personally don't know if we'll see an end time, but all we can do is be prepared for it if it comes.

Second, what is with the technology bashing? Is it evil for life to get better through technology? Is it evil for man to use his mind to better his life? A mind which, according to the Bible, was given to him from God? If man betters his life through the use of a God-given faculty that exists nowhere else in creation, how is this a bad thing? The fact is, none of this is evil - it's what we do with it that can be good or evil. Technology is non-volitional - it is merely a tool. If technology is evil, we should all go back to living in caves and hoping that a common cold won't kill us. God gave us minds. I'm pretty sure He expects us to use them. People, by living your life and using your mind to it's fullest potential is one more way of giving glory to God. The mind is a gift - USE IT!

Third, what the heck is this crap?

"But the computer has created a new language by “chopping up” these natural wavelengths in tiny little bits and converting them into the numbers 0-1-0-1 through our computer systems."

The computer is a tool. It did not "create a new language." Those of you who believe this, and think it's evil, turn off your computer now and don't turn it on again. Either that, or try creating and using an analog computer - I hope you have a spare room to store the extra vacuum tubes that don't "chop up" these natural wavelengths! The fact of the matter is, like it or not, the computer has made everyone's life better. It is a man-made invention. A man made the computer using the God-given gift of his mind. It is merely another tool, no different than when man made the first spear to make gathering his food easier.

There's more that could be said, if anyone wants any clarification, please ask.

We're singing from the same page, here!

I wonder if the doomsayers and fortune tellers have any idea how much they irritate God with their continuous complaining and whining. I recall Numbers 14, and wish these folks would meditate on that chapter:

I have yet to hear a fortune-teller honor God for taking down Soviet Communism. Deprived their favorite antichrist candidate, these pathetic and unbelieving sniveling wretches immediately scurried around, desperately seeking another antichrist candidate to cower and grovel before.

Friend Andonius 99, we can try to reason with these people who have a faith commitment to the global triumph of evil -- but at some point, I really do not want to be standing between them and the God whose grace, power, and purpose they insist on despising.

Meanwhile, those who love God's Kingdom give Him thanks for past victories, and ask that He would do it again. We can undermine secular humanism, America's anti-Christian religion of choice, by home-schooling our kids. And we can nibble away at the credibility of Islam by befriending Muslim students in this country, getting to know them, their culture, their languages, and sharing God's Word with them. Islam, you see, can only exist behind a "firewall," an information embargo, and the technology that the nitwits revile has punctured that.

Our best days are ahead!


(Parenthetically, when I was 20 I couldn't think more than a week or two ahead. No point in doing long-range thinking, since Jesus was coming back Real Soon Now. 37 years later, I'm closing in on a doctorate that may take a few more decades to amortize, but will provide additional credibility to my witness.)

Please read my post, just before yours, and give serious thought to whether or not you want to keep on cheerleading for the other team.

I am not sure what you mean?
But Jesus did say this system of things will end..Just like the world that Noah knew...
Are we not in the Days of Noah currently?

Consider the world that became very wicked in the days of Noah. The Bible explains: “The world of that time suffered destruction when it was deluged with water.” The Bible also says: “[God] did not hold back from punishing an ancient world, but kept Noah, a preacher of righteousness, safe with seven others when he brought a deluge upon a world of ungodly people.”—2 Peter 2:5; 3:6.

By the same word the heavens and the earth that are now are stored up for fire.” (2 Peter 3:7) Indeed, as another Bible writer explains: “The world [the one existing today] is passing away.”—1 John 2:17.

The Bible does not mean that the literal earth or the starry heavens will pass away, even as these did not pass away in Noah’s day. (Psalm 104:5) Rather, this world, with its “heavens,” or governmental rulers under the influence of Satan, and its “earth,” or human society, will be destroyed as if by fire. (John 14:30; 2 Corinthians 4:4) This world, or system of things, will perish just as surely as did the world before the Flood. Even Jesus Christ spoke about the situation in “the days of Noah” as an example of what would happen just prior to the end of this world.—Matthew 24:37-39.

Blessings upon your house. A gracious spirit like yours deserves a much healthier eschatology.

The Olivet Discourse, and the Book of Revelation, both deal primarily with the Jewish War, AD 63-70, that eliminated a major obstacle to God's purposes, apostate Israel. Like all Biblical and orthodox Christians, I look forward to the resurrection of the dead. Other than that, all I know about the future is that God's Kingdom is at work, like leaven in yeast, like a crop quietly growing, like a rock hewn without hands expanding to fill the world.

Historically speaking, the church starts dabbling in fortune telling during periods of weakness. Fortune telling, using God's Word as a ouija board to predict the immediate future, is both a symptom and a contributing factor to the illness of the Church.

However, since God is at work, we will outgrow this last-days madness. I've raised my kids to expect better of God than global defeat for His people and gospel.
