End of the World is Near! Analyzing the Bible Timeline

Apocalypse!  Holocaust!  Armageddon!  The use of these words in the title of a book or movie guarantees interest and sales of any product.  Everyone wants to know the future!  What is going to happen?  People sense today that the world is on the verge of a stupendous crisis.  Books and movies focus on end-of-the-world scenarios with vivid catastrophic effects.  Precisely what the crisis will be varies based on personal beliefs and speculations.  Bible believers expect the second coming of the Messiah, Yahushua, at the end of the world.  The events leading up to the second coming have been endlessly questioned, debated and speculated about by countless millions. Speculation, however, is unnecessary.  Scripture itself indicates how old the Earth will be at the end of time.  Prophetic timelines provide details of events to take place as the Earth itself reaches the fullness of time allotted to it.  Knowing the age of the Earth thus provides insight into where we are in the stream of time and how close we are to the final events in Earth's history. There are two basic ways the age of the Earth is calculated: 1) scientifically and, 2) chronologically.  Scientists use carbon 14 dating to estimate their many  tens of thousands of years.   Christians, on the other hand, use the more accurate chronology of the sacred scriptures plus history recorded on papyrus, pottery, stones, etc.  The age of the Earth is mathematically easy to determine and very accurate if one believes the scriptures and uses the Bible record just as it reads. The larger and corresponding question is what happens at the end of time.  Establishing age can imply an end of that age.  The Bible itself has a lot of information regarding what happens as probationary time ends.  Too often, however, personal speculation has guessed at Earth's final events rather than using the prophetic time lines, types and anti-types, and the events established and provable by scripture.  Today, with computers and information available on the internet, it is possible to determine the age of the world according to the Bible account.  The Creator wants His people to know what is coming on the Earth.  He urged, "Take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand" (Mark 13:23, NKJV(1)).  He further warned, "But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only." (Matthew 24:36) However, believers are clearly instructed to "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming" (Matthew 25:13). If it were not possible to know when the second coming is near, than there would not be so many repeated warnings to watch and be ready.   The fact that Yahushua repeatedly urged His followers to watch and be ready, reveals that it is possible to know when the end of the world is near.  "See, I have told you beforehand . . . So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, at the very doors" (Matthew 24:25, 33).  Heaven wants people to know the signs of Yahushua's soon return!  It was for this very reason that Paul was inspired to write: "Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.  Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall" (I Corinthians 10:11 & 12).  An "ensample" is a type: something which is a model or pattern of what is to come in the future.  Scripture is full of these types and Paul emphatically states that they were given for the admonition: the warning and instruction, of those who will be living at the end of time.  The Biblical books of Daniel and Revelation contain information regarding the end of the world and the pouring out of the Wrath of Yahuwah at the end of time. It is of vital importance that everyone study and understand the significance of the time in which we are living.  This year, 5997, (fall of 2009 to fall of 2010, Gregorian solar time), means that the amount of time measured off for the probation of Earth's people is almost over. All should number their days and learn what is coming, and when, in order to be prepared for the second coming of Yahushua. This article will establish from scripture how the age of the Earth can be accurately calculated from the Biblical record. The Great Week of Time The week as a unit of time measurement is introduced in the first chapter of Genesis.  The Earth was created in six days and on the seventh day the Creator rested.  This format of six days of work plus one of rest has been applied to the time allotted for sin to run its course since the first century A.D.(2).  Since the week is made of six work days, the time for Earth's probation is understood to be six thousand years. The Epistle of Barnabas, written circa A.D. 70-131 clearly states: Of the sabbath He speaketh in the beginning of the creation: And God made the works of His hands in six days, and He ended on the seventh day, and rested on it, and He hallowed it.  Give heed, children, what this meaneth: He ended in six days.  He meaneth this: that in six thousand years the Lord shall bring all things to an end; for the day with Him signifieth a thousand years; and this He himself beareth me witness, saying; Behold, the day of the Lord shall be as a thousand years.  Therefore, children, in six days, that is in six thousand years, everything shall come to an end.  And He rested on the seventh day. This He meaneth; when His Son shall come, and shall abolish the time of the Lawless One, and shall judge the ungodly, and shall change the sun and the moon and the stars, then shall He truly rest on the seventh day.(3) Scripture itself supports the interpretation of Creation week as a symbol of the great Week of Time as a total of 7000 years.  Adam was told: "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die" (Genesis 2:16,17).  Adam did not die the very day he ate forbidden fruit.  However, he did die within the first prophetic day of 1,000 years because he died when he was 930 years old.  (See Genesis 5:5.)    The apostle Peter clearly understood this principle when he stated: "Beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day" (2 Peter 3:8).  The Creator intended us to understand the symbol of one day equaling one thousand years. Prophetic time can also use one day to symbolize one year.  When the Israelites could not enter Canaan due to unbelief, their sentence of punishment was that they would spend a total of 40 years wandering in the wilderness: one year for each of the 40 days the 12 spies spent spying out the land of Canaan.  "According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land, forty days, for each day you shall bear your guilt one year, namely forty years" (Numbers 14:34). Prophetic time was also linked to one year for every day within a week.  Moses was instructed that the Israelites were to let the Earth, the gardens and vineyards, rest for one year after being farmed for six years.  The seventh year was the "Sabbath" rest for the land.  During the sabbatical year, no planting or pruning could be done.  The people could harvest only that which grew naturally on its own.  After seven times of counting out the seven year cycles, the year of Jubilee was announced which was itself a second year of rest after the seventh and last sabbatical.  This was the year of Jubilee: 7 x 7 years = 49 years + 1 Jubilee year = the 50 year Jubilee cycle.   Like a wheel within a wheel, seven years and seven times seven years measured off the larger cycles of time containing fifty years each. In the count to Pentecost, the Hebrews were also told to count seven full or complete weeks, then add the 50th day to make the count "complete."  Seven weeks of seven days each, plus one day, is the count to Pentecost:  7 x 7 = 49 + 1 = 50. The equation of 6 work days + 1 Sabbath rest = 7 days, or one complete week, is what has been referred to by many over the last 2,000 years as the Great Week of Time.  Applying this same principle to millennia indicates that there will be six thousand years (six millennia) for the Earth to labor under a burden of sin, while the grand work for the salvation of souls goes on.  The seventh millennia, the sabbatical for the Earth to rest, is the one thousand years in heaven when the saints judge the wicked dead.  Scripture reveals that after the second coming of Yahushua, (Revelation 19:11-16), Satan is bound to this earth for 1,000 years.  (See Revelation 20:1-3.(4))  During this thousand years when the Earth rests, the saints are in heaven with their Redeemer, judging the wicked dead.  (Revelation 20:4.)  At the end of the 1000 year sabbatical, the wicked are raised to receive their punishment with Satan in the lake of fire until they are fully consumed and eternal death, not eternal torment, is their reward for treason against the government of heaven.  (Revelation 20:5-10, 12-14; Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6.)  The foundation for the Great Week of Time was laid in Genesis when, at the time of the flood, Yahuwah decreed: "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years" (Genesis 6:3).  This is much more than just the years Noah preached about a coming flood.  This reveals that the total amount of time the Spirit of Yahuwah would strive with men, seeking to win them to repentance, would be a total of 6,000 years.  Before the flood, life spans were almost 1,000 years.  After the flood, the average lifespan rapidly decreased until Moses could say, "The days of our lives are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away" (Psalm 90:1).  Neither before the flood nor after was the standard lifespan 120 years.  Rather, when applied to Jubilee cycles, Yahuwah's statement in Genesis reveals that there would be a total of 6,000 years for sin to run its course!                                              120 (Man's days)                                            x 50 (Jubilee cycle)                                           6,000 years of probationary time To find the end, the beginning must first be located.  The Bible tells us where to start. Calculating the Biblical Years From the writings of Enoch to the present, people have added up the years of Biblical time to understand how much longer it will be until the end of the time granted to mankind.  To find the end, the beginning must first be established.  Now, at the end of Earth's history, the Creator is revealing His divine time design.  It is both a warning and an encouragement to the last generation. Bible scholars and lovers of truth the world over have, for hundreds and hundreds of years, studied the prophecies, chronologies and large time spans given in scripture.  Current religious conditions, political corruption, national and personal economic hardship, social upheaval and environmental catastrophes are all warnings of coming change.  People everywhere are awakening to the fact that the world is on the verge of a stupendous crisis.  People want to know when time and life as they know it will end.  It seems that everyone, both religious and secular, recognize that we are fast approaching the end of the world as we know it. This study will first use the Bible as it records the beginning of years, then add in the time of secular recorded history from 536 B.C. on to the present to calculate the age of the Earth. Opinions differ on whether Adam measured his age from Creation or the start of sin.  Some chronologists choose sin because time is not important when one expects to live forever.  Others choose Creation because the sun was to measure years and certainly Adam would have understood time and the cycle of years.  However, it really does not matter.  Either way makes no difference in the overall count. Genesis 5:3 states that Adam was 130 years old when Seth was born. This begins the first method of counting: adding the age of each generation at the time the first son was born.  The Bible gives a long list of "begats" that list the age of each patriarch at the birth of his first son.  This count, beginning with Adam, continues past the flood down to Jacob. This is the first time period, 1656 years, to which other distinct periods will be added until the year of transfer to time as recorded in secular sources in 536 B.C. is reached. There are two methods used to count the age of the Earth: Anno Mundi is a Latin term for counting from the beginning, numbering 1, 2, 3, and on forward in time from Adam. B.C. (Before Christ) and A.D. (anno domini, or, the year of our Lord) which counts backwards (B.C.) and forwards (A.D.) from the time of the Messiah. (Ussher's Chronology mistakenly placed His birth in A.D. 1.) Both methods yield the same count. (Scripture also gives ages for many people that will not be counted in this study because they are not in the lineage of the Messiah.) The following chart shows the patriarchs' ages: At birth of first born son Age at death Accumulated years from Adam in Anno Mundi time, counting forward from the beginning. It is most interesting to see the age relationships. Lamech, the father of Noah, could and probably did, talk to Adam. Abram most likely talked to Noah and Shem as they lived in the same general area before Abram journeyed away from his kinfolk in Ur of the Chaldees. There are seven distinct time periods that track the number of years from Adam down to 536 B.C. History from 536 B.C. on is firmly established in archeological and written records, so that particular year is used as the transition year between Biblically recorded time and secular time. The following chart shows these time periods using the B.C. method of counting backwards from the time of the Messiah. The first time period goes from Adam to the flood. The flood did not last a year, only forty days. Noah and his family did stay in the ark for a year, but that year is counted and calculated into the ages of Noah and his sons, and listed from the beginning of the flood, not after. The second time period starts at the beginning of the year of the flood and counts 391 years to the covenant made with Abram by the additional "begats." Controversy has existed over the age of Terah at the birth of his triplets.  The Bible says "And Terah lived seventy years and begat Abram, Nahor, and Haran" (Genesis 11:26). Therefore, 70 years will be used.  Scholars have also debated which event in Abraham's life should begin the count of the 430 years of the covenant promise to bring his descendants, the Israelites, out of Egypt.  The Bible gives the answer. "And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram and said unto him, . . . This is my covenant which ye shall keep, between me and you and thy seed after thee;  Every man child among you shall be circumcised."   Genesis 17:1,10.  Abraham was age 99 when the covenant that began the 430 years started.  A covenant is always between two parties and must be ratified or accepted.  Circumcision was the method the Creator chose for Abraham to demonstrate his acceptance by his own blood.  This places the Exodus firmly at 1512 B.C.  From the Exodus until the reign of Solomon was another 476 years.  The reigns of the kings can be confusing because the Hebrew year began in the spring but did not change the year number count until the fall when the regnal year began.  (A "regnal" year is simply the date from which a king's reign is counted.)  This problem is solved by either rounding up or rounding down.  As long as the same method is always used the count will be the same. Solomon reigned for 40 years and then the kingdom was divided for another 390 years.  Judah went into captivity in 606 B.C. and was held for the 70 years that were determined upon the Hebrew people in the prophesy given to Daniel. When these seven time periods are added together, the total equals 3453 years.  Adding the 536 years of secular time that reaches from the end of the Babylonian 70-year captivity down to the year 1 B.C., equals 3989 total years.  This gives a beginning date for Adam's creation, or sin, of 3989 B.C.                         3453 (total of seven time periods given in Scripture)                                        + 536 (secular time from extra-biblical sources for release from captivity)                                                                           3989 B.C. The final step is to subtract the 3989 from the 6000 year total probationary time.  One year must also be added to accommodate for the change between B.C. and A.D. time counts.  This is only a mathematical correction. Dating goes directly from 1 B.C. to A.D. 1.  There should have been a year 0 between the years counted as 1. In conclusion, most people are familiar with the numbering system of James Ussher, Anglican Archbishop of Armagh, who wrote a 17th-century chronology of the history of the world formulated from a literal reading of the Bible. His year numbering is used in the King James Version of the Bible for any dates found there.  Following is a chart showing just where this chronology differs from Ussher.  It will be observed that there is very little difference between the two. For further information and a detailed explanation on these time calculations, as well as time frame comparisons, please download "The 7000-Year Bible Chronology." This power point study describes how the time segments have been calculated and compares segments of time with each other.  While the power point study is quite lengthy, the research is extremely interesting and invaluable for understanding this important topic. The total time calculation of 6,000 years reaches from Adam at 3989 B.C. to the year 2012. Since the year count begins in the fall, the 6,000th year, 2012, does not end until the fall of 2013, at the time of the fall Feasts. The year itself must be lived through to reach the 6,000-year ending mark. The next millennium would not begin until the end of that last year in the fall of 2013. The time allotted for mankind would not end until all of the 6,000 years had been lived out. If additional time is granted the world for repentance and the acceptance of Yahuwah's invitation to accept the sacrifice of His Son, Yahushua's gift of eternal life, it would be short at best. Any additional time of grace is far from assured. After the fall of 2013, every additional day granted by Yahuwah should be regarded as living on borrowed time. The righteous and the wicked will still be living upon the Earth in their mortal state

Doomsday: Your End Of The World In Art, Science And Mythology

I'd better start by defining exactly what I have in mind with the phrase ‘the end of the world' as ‘the end' can take several forms.   Firstly though to the time it takes for an the end of the world event: A real end of the world scenario will be a short term event, lasting from mere seconds (say a gamma ray burster) to several months (say a pandemic, all out nuclear war, a super-volcano). I'm not talking multi-decades to centuries here as per global warming and rising sea levels or the coming of the next Ice Age.   The End of the World = the Destruction of Planet Earth ("When Worlds Collide" scenarios). That is, Planet Earth and obviously all and sundry on same go down the gurgler.   The End of the World = the Destruction of All Life on Planet Earth

End of the world countdown

    The countdown to the end of the world in Malachi 4 presents a summary description of what will be the lot of the wicked in the final destruction. What is being described seems to coincide with the testimonies of prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah and John. What is significant about this prediction in the book of Malachi is the commentary on the final efforts that God will make to salvage sinners prior to "the great and dreadful day of the Lord" (Mal. 4:5), and the eternal destiny of the redeemed.   The prediction of a fiery destruction According to the first verse of Malachi 4, the Lord will send fire upon the earth which will burn up the wicked and bring them to ashes. This particular verse is very interesting because it seems to contradict the popular notion of an ever-burning hell in which transgressors are supposed to suffer throughout eternity.   It reminds me of a conversation a long time ago in which a brother was advancing the view that Satan cannot die because he is spirit. He was making this assertion to justify the doctrine of the immortality of the soul and the eternal-hell theory. Upon hearing this remark, I kindly refer him to Ezekiel 28:18 where it is clearly stated that like the wicked, Satan himself will be burned to ashes for his transgressions.   It seems like there is a consensus among Bible writers around the idea that the unrepentant will be burned to cinders without any prolonged suffering. This position seems to be more consistent with the mercy of God, which endures forever, and the fact that He has no pleasure in the death of the wicked; not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (Ezek. 33:11; 2Pet. 3:9).   The Elijah message in the ministry of John the Baptist In contrast to this message of warning, the Lord gives an assurance that He will make every effort to restore true godliness in the world. He promised to send Elijah to turn the hearts of the people from transgression. Does this mean that the prophet Elijah will return from heaven to which he was translated to undertake this ministry?   According to Christ, Elijah has already come in the form of John the Baptist who did preach a powerful message of repentance preparing the way for the coming Messiah (Matt. 3:3; 17:11-13).   While we should accept the ministry of John the Baptist as a secondary fulfillment of the coming Elijah, we should expect a wider fulfillment of this prediction just before the end of the world. This prophecy will be fulfilled in the final proclamation of the gospel of the kingdom, which is synonymous to the everlasting gospel spoken of in Revelation 14.   The power of Elijah through the ministry of the two witnesses In his end of the world countdown in Revelation 11 we can see a clear hint of an Elijah ministry in the form of the two witnesses. These two prophets are to prophesy for 1260 days (42 months). It seems as if they have a special mission that is confined to a certain locality and set apart from the work of the rest of the people of God.   There are clear similarities between the ministry of Elijah and that of the two witnesses. Like Elijah they will have power to shut heaven during the period of their ministry - did not the Bible say that Elijah shut heaven and created a drought for a 42-month period? See 1Kings 17:1; Jam.5:17. Typical of the miraculous work of this spirit-filled prophet, the two witnesses will also have power to speak and cause fire to come down and destroy their enemies (2Kings 1:10-12).   Incidentally, the ministry of these two end-time prophets will also exhibit characteristics that are similar to the work of Moses! They will also be able to turn the waters into blood and smite the earth with plagues as much as they will. But this observation is also in keeping with Malachi's countdown of events leading up to the end of the world. In the same chapter where the fiery destruction of the earth is foretold, and where the end-time return of Elijah is announced, there is a clear warning to keep the Law of Moses!   It is very interesting that in light of an impending event that is to signify the end of the world, the prophet Malachi admonishes us to obey a law that, by conventional opinion, is supposed to be obsolete by then. In another article, we will look at the significance of this admonition in the context of the last days.     The final message in the spirit and power of Elijah When we examine the countdown of end-of-the-world events from the writings of different prophets, you will see a consistent testimony about the preaching of the final message to the world.  It is foretold in the scriptures that in the last days our God will have a people upon the earth who, in the manner of that spirit-filled prophet standing before king Ahab, will be bold and fearless in their utterances, and whose ministry will go forth in the spirit and power of Elijah. The work of the gospel will then be finished in a blaze of glory, turning "the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers" before the earth is visited with a curse (Mal. 4:6).     Retrieved from "http://www.articlesbase.com/religion-articles/end-of-the-world-countdown-the-end-time-return-of-elijah-4371090.html" (ArticlesBase SC #4371090) Watch your traffic increase just by submitting articles with us, click here to get started.

End of the World Countdown - The Day When Michael Shall Stand Up

This intriguing countdown to the end of the world as chronicled in the eleventh and twelfth chapters of the book of Daniel shows clearly how end-time events will reach their apex. When you coordinate this prophecy with chapters 2, 7, and 8, you will see clearly that Daniel 11 is likewise a parallel prophecy of the succession of world kingdoms leading up to the end of the world. The countdown of end-of-the-world events from the utterances of different prophets and the records of various Bible writers must not be analyzed in isolation. Very often I see where different theologians in their commentaries on end-time Bible prophecies often fall down when it comes to consistency of analysis. One of the areas of inconsistency is found in the identification of the angel Michael. Many Bible commentators make it appears that the deliverance referred to in Daniel 12:1 will be the work of an ordinary angel and not of Christ. Who is Michael? The word Michael in the Hebrew language means 'one who is like God'. This seems to be the description of a being with Godlike attributes that earns Him such a reputation. When I think about this definition of Michael two Bible references would immediately come to mind. In Exodus 3:2-5, it is said that it was "the angel of the Lord" that Moses worshipped at the burning bush; in Joshua 5:13-15, it was an angel that Joshua worshipped when, with drawn sword, He announced Himself as the Captain of the Lord's host. The divine Angel whose voice will raise the dead at His coming According to the book of Jude, Michael is said to be the archangel (vs 9). If this archangel is worthy of worship, then He must be Christ, the Son of God. The only two beings in the universe that are worthy of worship are the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb (Christ) (Rev. 4:8-11; 5:8; 21:22; Jn 5:23, and none of the angelic beings that are under the command of this divine Angel should be so regarded (Col. 2:18; Rev. 19:10; 22:8, 9). In agreement with this position, the apostle Paul clearly teaches that that same angel of the Lord (the Rock) who was with Israel in the wilderness, and who was worshipped by Joshua and Moses, was Christ (1Cor. 10:1-4; Exod. 23:20-23)! This is not an orthodox view but if we follow the biblical countdown of end-of-the-world events we will see the clear, consistent teaching that it will be Christ who, "with the voice of the archangel" (Michael) (Thess. 4:16), will deliver His people in the time of the end and call forth the righteous from the dead (Jn 5:28, 29). That is precisely the scenario that was set forth in Daniel 12 in connection with Michael standing up. Here is what verse 2 says, "And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." The One who will deliver His people from the Antichrist's oppression In Daniel 11:45, it is stated that the king of the north (the Antichrist) will come to his end and none shall help him. As the prophecy continues into chapter 12, you will clearly see that it is at that point that Michael shall stand up. It is when Michael stands up that the Antichrist will be destroyed. But if we should accept the clear truth that the king of the north and the Antichrist are one and the same, then we cannot escape the clear implication of the Paul's teaching in his second epistle to the Thessalonians. In his unique countdown of events leading up to the end of the world, he declared that this 'man of sin' will be destroyed by the spirit (word) of Christ's mouth and by the brightness of His coming (2Thess. 2:3-8). Furthermore, if we can accept the fact that the 'man of sin' and the beast of Revelation 13 are identical, then we must also accept the inevitable conclusion that John's account of the King of kings and Lord of lords, who was seen riding on a white horse, executing judgement on the beast and the false prophet in Revelation 19, is a repetition of the same end-time scenario in Daniel 12:1. Make sure you are on the same side with the Captain of the Lord's host As the end of the world draws near we need to pay attention to the biblical countdown of all the events and coordinate them into one narrative for a better understanding of end-time Bible prophecy. Our present duty as Christians is to make sure that when that time comes, when Michael shall stand up, we are not found on the side of the oppressors but on the side of this mighty Captain of the Lord's host, with our names written in the Book of Life.     Retrieved from "http://www.articlesbase.com/religion-articles/end-of-the-world-countdown-the-day-when-michael-shall-stand-up-4335205.html" (ArticlesBase SC #4335205) Watch your traffic increase just by submitting articles with us, click here to get started.

2012 - Is It the End of the World?

Being scientists who are skeptical of any paranormal activity they set out to prove once and for all that the Shamans of Mesoamerica could have their experience documented and scientifically analyzed. Their theory was that the spiritual ecstasies ascribed to the Shamans was to be found in the chemical constituents of the local brew that has the effect of enhancing such spiritual activities. They subjected the local brew derived from a local herb native to the Amazon, called ayahuasca, to scientific analysis and discovered it contains the compound chemically known as dimethyltryptamine and harmine, which is a beta carboline. In plain language, these are chemicals necessary for enhanced brain activities that resemble the natural secretions from the pineal gland. They took the herbs themselves to ascertain the efficacy through experiences, and experienced what was later described as altered state of consciousness. Their research led them to linking the activity of the herb to the Chinese principle of I-chang. I-chang deals with the several combinations of positive and negative forces, called the ying and yang, to produce a definite union. They noted that the symbols of ying and yang could be combined into hexagrams, sixty four hexagrams showing all the possible combinations. In a lengthy research too complex to explain here, they were able to access information on Nuclear Deoxyribonucleic Acid, DNA, and were able to measure the wavelengths of radiations coming from atoms and subatomic particles involved. They were able to create what they described as a time wave for these particles. They were also led to apply the same principle to bigger entities like the earth, creating a time wave of history. They discovered that all the waves syndronised - both the earth and atomic waves - just once, and that was the year 2012 AD. That was the joint peak of all was. They published their work titled ''The invisible Landscape,'' in 1975. Meanwhile, quite independently, an American Jose Arguelles, published a book he entitled ''The Mayan factor''. The focus of his book was the ancient civilization of the Mayans of South America. When Cortez invaded their land in 507AD, most of their sacred writings were destroyed by the conquistadors. However, five of the books were able to be saved. Today, they are kept in different parts of Europe - Dresden, Paris, Madrid, Prague and Croatia. One thing that struck archeologists was that the calendars, which were part of the recovered writings, abruptly ended in December 21, 2012. THE MAYAN CALENDER To understand how the data was arrived at, it is necessary to look at the Mayan dating system. The height of the Mayan classical period can be said to date from 300 - 900 AD. During this period, they flourished in their civilization. In their culture, religion, philosophy, Science, Astronomy and prophesy were all intertwined together. The Mayans have over seventeen different calendars based on the researches, though only a few survived the conquistadors. Some of them dates back to millions of years and cannot be decoded. But out of the ones that survive, we can only talk of a two important ones. The first is what is called the Haab cycle. This calendar is completely earth based. This consists of eighteen months of twenty days each. That gives us 360 days year. The nineteenth months is only five days and according to some scholars, are regarded as five ceremonial days, which they called Vayeb. The American researcher Jose Arguelles designated July 26 each year as the Mayan New Year, which is probably divided into July 21 as the end of the year and five festival days. The second is the normal moon calendar of 28 days month. It consists of 13 lunar cycles - adapted closely to our modern Gregorian calendar. Out of these two cycles, the Haab cycle is used for ceremonial events. July 21 is therefore their new year or the cosmic turning point for them each year. It is through this that the popular Mayan long count called the Tzolkin, emanated from. This count is used for ceremonial and ritual events. It is based on the astronomical movement of the constellation Pleiades in the universe, in relation to the earth. It should be noted that the Mayans developed a system of astronomy not dependent on our modern equipments but intuition based, hence, there were things that were taken up and known as a matter of course by the Mayans which our own erudite scholars are at a loss to understand and interpret. Their simple nature made them environment friendly.. Thus theconstellation Pleiades ' was called T'zab, which translated means the tail of a rattlesnake. The revolution of our sun, the centre of our system, round the Pleiades' is known astronomically to be 25,770 yrs. The rotation is given as a cycle of 260 days. From the Mayans, their sacred numbers are 13, 18 and 20. Hence, 260 days is given as 13 x 20 days, which corresponds to the nine - month's gestation period of the human being. Some other little coincidences exist. For example, there are 13 lunar cycles, 20 amino acids in the DNA, and 260 different cells in the body. The Mayans calendar has days which they called kin, twenty days make one month (Ulinal), 13 months make one year (Tun) twenty years make one K' atoon, which is 7200 days, and20 k' atuns make 144,000 days.(Are these numbers familiar?). 144,000 days is called a Baktun. Mapping with modern calendar How do we now correlate the Mayan calendar with the Gregorian calendar? This was precisely the question that Mayan scholars sort to answer. In 1992, the university of Guatemala, after rigorous research came up with the idea of using a common astrological event. For this they chose the eclipse of the sun that happened in July1, 1991. This was predicted using the calendar of the Mayans. Though the prediction was not particularly accurate, it gave a basis for the calibration of the long count using the Gregorian calendar. It was off by eleven days. Using the Dresden codex, they determined the starting point of the long count as Wednesday, 13 August 3114BC and the end date as Dec. 21, 2012 AD. There have been other attempts at mapping, but the universally accepted one is the one of the University of Guatemala, generally referred to as G.M.T. This stands for Goodman, Martinez, Hernandez, the researchers headed by Eric Thompson. The long count coincides with the procession of the equinoxes. This comprises 5,125.40yrs cycle, which coincides with 13 Baktuns, and referred to as the great cycle. It means that 13 August 3114 BC is Day one in the current count, which is referred to as zero kin, zero ulinals, zero tuns, zero k'atun and zero Baktuns. It is depicted as 0.0.0.0.0., while Dec. 21, 2012 reads 13.0.0.0.0., Monday, 19 October 2009 reads 12.19.16.14.1 Dec 21, 2002 is therefore called the Mayan end date, or Galactic Convergence, because all cycles-long and short, atomic and subatomic, peak on that day. The last cycle was said to have began on September 20 1618. This is the beginning of the last Baktun. The last phase of the galactic great cycle began in 1992. From then, according to researchers, a quickening of time became noticeable. Even the landing of Cortez at the shores of the Mesoamerican tribes was on Good Friday, the beginning of a new cycle. IS IT THE END TIME? What is the significance of all these to mankind? As soon as "The Mayan Factor" was published, all hell, as they say, was let loose. Mystics, Seers, chanellers, prophets, doomsday fanatics all set to work. It isthe end of the world, some say. So many works were written on it. In fact, the McKenna brothers had to revise their work, giving it a specific date, the Mayan end date. So much hackneyed phrases entered into the general lexicon. On that day the world undergoes a "quantum leap in consciousness", "changes from the fourth to the fifth world". The present "linear fission of time" will "transform into multidimensionality." There is as varied an opinion as there are scholars. But basically, their ideas can be summarized in the following: The beginning of the time of the god-men on earth, resulting in a period of peace; The emergence and integration of the Divine Feminine into all aspects of society. The change from the fourth world to fifth world The collision of the earth with an asteroid from outer space. The taking over of the earth by aliens from other space, The end of the world as we know it and The reversal of North and South Pole. So many other researchers and writers now try to gear their researches towards the Mayan end date, re-interpreting and re-inventing prophesies and predictions anew. Let us look at those prophesies and their new interpretations. The fourth world, of a highly materialistic nature, ends up on 16th August 1987, which according to Carlos Barrios in his book "Kam Wuj, El Libzo del Destino", is a time of global convergence of environmental destruction and natural disasters which culminate in the year 2012, the beginning of a time of peace and harmony, the fifth world. This corresponds to the ideas of the Hopi Indians, Elders and Eskimos. their prophesies are without end dates. The period, when the "Blue Star Kachina" will appear in the sky, according to Hopi Indians. Once again, the Hopis never gave a date to these things. The Billy Meier contacts of aliens who gives him prognosis of the future. Once again, Billy never clearly stated what will happen in 2012. THINGS ARE NOT WHAT THEY SEEM In trying to understand the tears of the researchers, spirits and the "ascended masters", let us examine their expectations in greater details. Take the issue of the time of god-men for example. Anything that does not accord with the natural creational laws will definitely meet a brick wall during the transitional period to the time of peace. To these belong the wrong concepts that have thus far prevailed among mankind. Most deal with misunderstanding and making earthly of Divine promises that has reached mankind over eons of time. Part of these misconceptions is the issue of Divine Masculine, or god-men, and Divine Feminine, or god-women. Ancient prophesies indicate that there will be a time of a God-man and Divine Feminine - One female being. This is meant to coincide with the time of the purification of the earth such God-man will naturally live on earth and bring his Divine knowledge to mankind. Those who follow his teachings are imbued with his power to effect spiritual changes on earth. But they themselves are blessed in that regard, but can never become god-men themselves. The same applies to the Divine Feminine. She alone can be regarded as Divine, because she came from the Divine realm, and her presence on earth is meant to strengthen all nobility in womanhood that, through this, a new breed of women will arise who will lead in the new time. So it is not the divine feminine but noble womanhood that will be integrated into the society. We are already in the midst of this time. But the danger lies in trying to fix specific timing for these things. Attempts to do this have already caused much havoc and loss of faith at the turn of the century, when people believed that the year 2000 will mark the end of the world. But no renowned prophet has ever given the timing to the end of the present system of things for one simple reason. It is not known, though the closer the time approaches, the more accurate the predictions could be. In The Light of Truth the Grail Message gives us clarity.

2012 Is Not The End Of The World ( What They Want You To Believe Or Is There Truth In The Statement?)

The End Of The World Is Not 2012...A statement that many would like to have you believe, but can it be proven either way? First of all let's look at why the statement has been posed to begin with. Hollywood released 2012 the movie in late 2009, basing it on the theory of the Mayan calendar that dates back to early 6th Century BC. This calendar which has been responsible for predicting various world events like earthquakes, floods and other substantial phenomena abruptly comes to an end on the 21st of December 2012. Why does it end there and what is the interpretation of this ending? One theory of why the Mayan calendar ends on the21st of December 2012 is that they simply had to end it somewhere. As simplistic as this sounds, I personally don't subscribe to this thought. The Mayans were genius when it came to all things Mathematical and Astronomy based. They managed to accurately predict earth changing events in our past and their predictions were held in high regard by notable people such as Nostradamus. Other theories are that the Mayans had "seen" a point in our future-their future, where the events were so catastrophic the earth would cease to exist. This theory can be backed by scientific research into the Earth aligning with the Milky Ways Equator for the first time in over 25,000 years. This is thought to provoke a violent shift in the Earths poles and subsequently the north pole would "flip" and become the south pole. Another school of thought is that it is the end of the world as we know it. And as such, the human race would embark on a new Spiritual Awakening that will see the racial divides, poverty, hunger and other human plights end and we as a race would be transformed into a new world of living. This seems reasonably plausible and to be honest, my choice of the two scenarios! However, how is this Spiritual Awakening going to come about when there are generations of hatred and poverty that cannot surely be erased on one single day? There is quite a large following that will have you believe just that, and then there are those that have interpreted it as Christs return. Whatever the scenario, I'm sure you'll agree that it is the far more attractive of the two options. When it comes to figuring out as to whether this is a sensationalized misinterpretation of an ancient calendar, or whether the Scientific backing of a shift in the Earths poles are substantial enough to tie it to the abrupt ending of the calendar is truly a debate that can only be solved by getting to the 21st of December itself. However, if you can gather enough information as I have been able to do and educate yourself on whether there actually is a risk to you and your family, then I sincerely implore you to do that also. I have found the most useful information on 2012 End Of World Prediciton This gives argument about Swine Flu and other pandemics being tied into the 2012 argument, along with Government cover ups and introduces "The 5th Age of Man" which is truly compelling. I wish you and your family information and enlightenment in the lead up to the 21st of December, 2012 Retrieved from "http://www.articlesbase.com/new-age-articles/2012-is-not-the-end-of-the-world-what-they-want-you-to-believe-or-is-there-truth-in-the-statement-1963049.html" (ArticlesBase SC #1963049) Start increasing your traffic today just by submitting articles with us, click here to get started.

End Of The World In 2012 ( What You Need To Know Before Then)

The end of the world in 2012 can be attributed to the interpretation of The Mayan Calendar. This ancient calendar belonged to a civilization that dates back to at least the 6th Century BC. The Mayan calendar predicted various world events that have occurred in our past such as War, famine, flood and earthquakes, to name just a few. It was held in high enough esteem by visionaries such as Nostradamus and the calendar was adapted by later civilizations. But why then does the Mayan calendar abruptly end on the 21st of December, 2012 ? The Mayan civilization was extremely advanced in mathematics, engineering and astronomy. They also had an incredible understanding of time and space. Various calendars were in use to track time in linear progressions within cycles. The "Great Cycle" of the "Long Count" calendar equates to 5,125.36 years. The current Great Cycle is due to be completed on the winter solstice of 2012, December 21. So, it has been interpreted that on this day, the Great Cycle ends, time ends, so the Earth must end as well. Some believe cataclysmic events will take place in December 2012 with the ultimate destruction occurring on December 21, 2012. Others believe that the world will not end, but instead humanity will enter a new age, marked by significant changes physically and mentally. Whatever the change may be -be it cataclysmic or spiritual, what can be done to prepare for this date? Where can you get the latest and most extensive information on the subject so you can make up your own mind as to what will happen? The conspiracy theories are rife and it makes it harder to get to the real TRUTH. Government cover-ups are not out of the question and so where do we go for real advice and information? Will the World End, or will it be an end to the World as we know it on a Spiritual Level? Know where to go for the most accurate answers and information, be informed on what is happening and what can be done about it. How can you safe guard your life and that of your family members and spiritually THRIVE in the wake of this Life-Changing event. There are dozens of theories about how this might happen. Some claim that 2012 is when the Earth will experience a polar shift. Others say that after 2012, the Earth will experience a period of terrible destruction followed by a new age of peace and enlightenment. A few claim that in 2012, a secret government will accomplish its goal of total world domination. NASA Scientists have been able to exactly pinpoint (to the day) the two Venus Transits and when humanity will change forever. This date matches the Mayan Calendar EXACTLY. It has been Proven By NASA that these calculations were exactly correct. See this pagepublished By NASA This proves that NASA is aware that this EXTREMELY RARE Alignment will indeed happen in December 2012.

End Of The World In 2012 ( What You Need To Know Before Then)

The end of the world in 2012 can be attributed to the interpretation of The Mayan Calendar. This ancient calendar belonged to a civilization that dates back to at least the 6th Century BC. The Mayan calendar predicted various world events that have occurred in our past such as War, famine, flood and earthquakes, to name just a few. It was held in high enough esteem by visionaries such as Nostradamus and the calendar was adapted by later civilizations. But why then does the Mayan calendar abruptly end on the 21st of December, 2012 ? The Mayan civilization was extremely advanced in mathematics, engineering and astronomy. They also had an incredible understanding of time and space. Various calendars were in use to track time in linear progressions within cycles. The "Great Cycle" of the "Long Count" calendar equates to 5,125.36 years. The current Great Cycle is due to be completed on the winter solstice of 2012, December 21. So, it has been interpreted that on this day, the Great Cycle ends, time ends, so the Earth must end as well. Some believe cataclysmic events will take place in December 2012 with the ultimate destruction occurring on December 21, 2012. Others believe that the world will not end, but instead humanity will enter a new age, marked by significant changes physically and mentally. Whatever the change may be -be it cataclysmic or spiritual, what can be done to prepare for this date? Where can you get the latest and most extensive information on the subject so you can make up your own mind as to what will happen? The conspiracy theories are rife and it makes it harder to get to the real TRUTH. Government cover-ups are not out of the question and so where do we go for real advice and information? Will the World End, or will it be an end to the World as we know it on a Spiritual Level? Know where to go for the most accurate answers and information, be informed on what is happening and what can be done about it. How can you safe guard your life and that of your family members and spiritually THRIVE in the wake of this Life-Changing event. There are dozens of theories about how this might happen. Some claim that 2012 is when the Earth will experience a polar shift. Others say that after 2012, the Earth will experience a period of terrible destruction followed by a new age of peace and enlightenment. A few claim that in 2012, a secret government will accomplish its goal of total world domination. NASA Scientists have been able to exactly pinpoint (to the day) the two Venus Transits and when humanity will change forever. This date matches the Mayan Calendar EXACTLY. It has been Proven By NASA that these calculations were exactly correct. See this pagepublished By NASA This proves that NASA is aware that this EXTREMELY RARE Alignment will indeed happen in December 2012.

Sarah Gladman - About the Author: The End Of The World is a concept that affects each of us, regardless of whether we believe that the world will simultaneously explode or whether it will signal a new spiritual awakening for each of us. What is known is that the Mayan civilisation were a most fastidious and mathematical of people and the accuracy with which they have predicted events in our past, is truly astounding. What is also most interesting is the interpretation of the calendar ending, in my opinion. To some it is a doomsday warning sparking the end of the world and the destruction of the human race. Others believe it will be the end of pain and suffering, and the human race will awaken to a new spiritual order. Others believe along a similar spiritual line that it signifies the second coming of Christ. Whatever the result on the 21st of December, the only way to truly know what will indeed transpire is to be there. I found some wonderful information and facts on  2012 End Of World Prediction that has helped me sleep alot better at night. So much of the information that we seek for answers on this subject is hidden away in mostly government files. To piece together cover ups and to make an informed decision on what I believe will happen in December 2012 was only possible after reading and educating myself on the matter. I wish for you and your family to have as much knowledge as possible on what you will do when December 2012 comes around.

End of the World: What People are Saying About It

Not to be a party pooper, but you do realize that the world is going to end next year, don't you? Many people are claiming that the world is going to end next year that in fact, 2012 is basically synonymous to the end of the world. You can try Googling the date and all you will probably find is a lists of predictions and theories concerning how we are going to be wiped off the face of the planet. Whether you believe it or not though, it's a great idea to keep abreast into the latest doomsday predictions that are running the rounds. A few of the popular and most well-believed predictions are listed below. The Great FloodThis is probably what you fear the most out of all the doomsday predictions. I mean, think about it, if the world is going to be covered in water, what are your chances of surviving? You could probably survive earthquakes or even a sudden ball of fire or even freezing temperatures but how do you escape the great flood?Most people that the world will end through this since, didn't the world sort of end like this during the time of Noah? Though there are really no evidence to show otherwise, the Christian belief is so embedded in all of us that it is easy for us to believe so. Magnetic Pole ReversalIt might sound fancy but it basically means one thing: the north and south pole will be reversed and that this reversal will cause extreme calamities and natural disasters. In fact, scientists believe that during the short time that this happens, the Earth and of course us who are in it, will be exposed to the harmful rays of the sun. It is not clear whether being exposed to it will burn the surface of the planet but the most popular theory is that during that time, the surface of the Earth will probably be too hot. So, end of the world predictions and theories would have you choose between two things: to drown or to burn. In the end, I take these doomsday end of the world theories in stride. Fear is a great motivator and it helps me live my life to the fullest everyday but I do not let these fears get the best of me. If and when the world is going to end, I believe that I won't have any control of it and the only thing I can do is to prepare my family and myself the best way I can.

May 21st 2011, End of the World? What should you do now?

"The end of the world is coming; 21st May 2011, 6:00pm, to be precise."   See the news today on TV, ABC, even CNN about "End of the World May 21st", "Judgment Day" or so called "Rapture Day"? Not only those medias, many people went to street holding huge signs read "The End of World May 21st 2011". Aren't you scared? What exactly does this come from? I have been thinking about those questions many times today.   That is the date predicted by Harold Camping who is a preacher from Oakland, CA. He is predicting this Saturday is the Second Coming of God. At about 6pm, May 21 of 2011, he predicts about 2% of the world's population will be immediately "raptured" to Heaven; the rest of us will be sent straight to the Other Place which I believe he means The Hell facing the awful judgment of God.   Have you been wondering, is that true? Or what if it is true?   Anyhow, I don't agree with him. I don't want to list out all my proofs here to prove Mr. Camping is wrong. If you are interested, check out this post on my own blog at the very bottom of this article. The point I want to say is, even it is true, and what can you do about it? It is not going to help anyone by just putting up a huge sign to let everyone know. Instead, I think there are two things people should do.   #1. Be a better person, love people around you. Do you really think God is creating us is to judge or repture us in the end? He wants us to glorify HIM, to love each other. We are sinners anyway. So, from right now right here, why don't you say hi to your wife and see if you can help on dishes after dinner, hand your husband a cup of tea and ask how was his work, give your kids a lovely kiss and tell them how much you love them, give your parents a call and see if they are doing all right.. and most important, remember to pray to ask God's mercy, ask God's a better world instead of the end of the world.   #2. In reality, in recent years or months, we've seen many natural disasters around the world, such as earthquakes in Japan, New Zealand and Haiti, flood in Australia. Mr. Camping states those are harbingers of impending doom. Well, let's stop mentioning Mr. Camping because I don't agree with him anyway. But, I think people do need to pay more attention on how to deal with those emergency situation. We know many people in Louisiana have some serious flood problem or the Kristina hurricane back in 2005, if that happened to you, what you should do. I have another interesting post May 21st 2011, End of the World? What should you do now? might give you some basic ideas. Like the author said in the post, make sure you have two things anytime: Water and Food. End of the world May 21st? Is that true?

Why is 2012 the end of the world

Many people have often asked me Why is 2012 the end of the world and many times I have had to explain to them that it's really not as easy to explain as they might think, sure many people out there like to talk about one specific thing or another but the truth of the matter regarding the question why is 2012 the end of the world is that it is a multi faceted issue. If you want to truly start to solve this question for yourself you have to take into account many aspects of modern human society from geopolitics, spiritual concepts, scientific facts and of course philosophy because only by looking at the situation from all angles and areas of mental discipline can we truly start to speculate on genuine possibilities as to why is 2012 the end of the world. Take for example the political level, not only have we seen great turmoil in our not so distant past in the forms of tyrannical governments and despots, but we see growing tension all over the world even today especially in regards to Americas involvement in the middle east where a prolonged war has brought nothing but unnecessary death for our soldiers and the loss of freedoms and liberties for us civilians left at home in western countries. This growing political tensions, even in this particular example could give us insight as to why is 2012 the end of the world because the implications of these wars involves the whole world, and given the fact that it is well documented we are involved in these wars based on the lie of the US investigation forces allegedly finding "weapons of mass destruction" one can't help but wonder what the real objective of invading the middle eastern countries is? Liberty? Or is it something more? Now if we add in the nuclear option that the American forces have on the table, especially in recent times concerning the potential invasion of Iran, this gives us a platform for the down to earth aspect of why is 2012 the end of the world. But of course the topic doesn't end on the geopolitical level, there is the spiritual level also to keep in mind, this in particular is also equally important as the very nature of each and every one of our lives is directly impacted by it, we are infinite consciousness living souls, who by the whim of those that would control us have had our infinite potential suppressed by those that have controlled or at the very least drastically influenced mankind for hundreds if not thousands of years. The ancient Mayan civilization was highly advanced, in some ways more than we are today, they had keen astronomers who tracked the movements of the celestial bodies in the heavens and they used this information to predict what they believed would happen in the future, And whilst it is true that most of their predictions based on the movements of the stars was used for simple day to day purposes there were things that they documented, alignments of stars that would have a specific impact on humans during that time, this gives us more of a platform as to answer why is 2012 the end of the world when we dive further into the subject as I shall right now. We have briefly discussed the geopolitical and spiritual level of the situation, but what about the scientific? Well it may interest you to know my fellow truth seeker that recently it was discovered by geologists contracted by the national geographic society that they found magnetic residue in rock deposits in both Finland and Australia that suggested earth had gone through dramatic changes in the past that affected the weather and as a result changed the physical geography of the planet forever, whilst it was a slow change and not dramatic in some apocalyptic scenario, what's important about this is to point out, that events in the solar system abroad, even small, can affect the planet as a whole and thus you and I But this on its own still doesn't give us too much insight as to why is 2012 the end of the world, so with these brief few topics that I have touched on lets draw them together and connect the dots as they say, we have mounting political tension all over the globe causing depression and angst, this subsequently then impacts on us everyday people on a spiritual level as we are dragged down by the fear and anger that is propagated to us via the mainstream media, and then we know that scientific changes have occurred in the past that could alter the planet… Well is there the option that a nuclear war may indeed create the outcome of 2012, is this the answer as to why is 2012 the end of the world, it's certainly a possibility, these people that control us, these "illuminati" that have kept us in the dark for centuries, have always tried to make the individual man feel powerless when in fact it is completely the opposite, and by doing so they feed of the negative energy they create in humans to serve their own sadistic needs in an attempt to stop the spiritual liberation that is on offer as we enter into a new age. There is of course the other astronomical evidence that has been suggested by many influential scientists, one in particular a Mr. Michio Kaku who is a theoretical physicist and based on the available data we have in regards to mass coronal ejections (large solar flares) has analyzed and discovered that not only have mass solar flares affected the planet in the past, but that if one was to occur in our time it could potentially knock out all satellites, electricity, computers and all modern devices, rending security systems of sensitive things such as nuclear weapons and other unknown devices vulnerable and unprotected, not to mention what could happen if god forbid it actually started a chain reaction and set these things off...

Liberty? Or is it something more? Now if we add in the nuclear option that the American forces have on the table, especially in recent times concerning the potential invasion of Iran, this gives us a platform for the down to earth aspect of why is 2012 the end of the world. But of course the topic doesn't end on the geopolitical level, there is the spiritual level also to keep in mind, this in particular is also equally important as the very nature of each and every one of our lives is directly impacted by it, we are infinite consciousness living souls, who by the whim of those that would control us have had our infinite potential suppressed by those that have controlled or at the very least drastically influenced mankind for hundreds if not thousands of years. The ancient Mayan civilization was highly advanced, in some ways more than we are today, they had keen astronomers who tracked the movements of the celestial bodies in the heavens and they used this information to predict what they believed would happen in the future, And whilst it is true that most of their predictions based on the movements of the stars was used for simple day to day purposes there were things that they documented, alignments of stars that would have a specific impact on humans during that time, this gives us more of a platform as to answer why is 2012 the end of the world when we dive further into the subject as I shall right now. We have briefly discussed the geopolitical and spiritual level of the situation, but what about the scientific? Well it may interest you to know my fellow truth seeker that recently it was discovered by geologists contracted by the national geographic society that they found magnetic residue in rock deposits in both Finland and Australia that suggested earth had gone through dramatic changes in the past that affected the weather and as a result changed the physical geography of the planet forever, whilst it was a slow change and not dramatic in some apocalyptic scenario, what's important about this is to point out, that events in the solar system abroad, even small, can affect the planet as a whole and thus you and I But this on its own still doesn't give us too much insight as to why is 2012 the end of the world, so with these brief few topics that I have touched on lets draw them together and connect the dots as they say, we have mounting political tension all over the globe causing depression and angst, this subsequently then impacts on us everyday people on a spiritual level as we are dragged down by the fear and anger that is propagated to us via the mainstream media, and then we know that scientific changes have occurred in the past that could alter the planet… Well is there the option that a nuclear war may indeed create the outcome of 2012, is this the answer as to why is 2012 the end of the world, it's certainly a possibility, these people that control us, these "illuminati" that have kept us in the dark for centuries, have always tried to make the individual man feel powerless when in fact it is completely the opposite, and by doing so they feed of the negative energy they create in humans to serve their own sadistic needs in an attempt to stop the spiritual liberation that is on offer as we enter into a new age. There is of course the other astronomical evidence that has been suggested by many influential scientists, one in particular a Mr. Michio Kaku who is a theoretical physicist and based on the available data we have in regards to mass coronal ejections (large solar flares) has analyzed and discovered that not only have mass solar flares affected the planet in the past, but that if one was to occur in our time it could potentially knock out all satellites, electricity, computers and all modern devices, rending security systems of sensitive things such as nuclear weapons and other unknown devices vulnerable and unprotected, not to mention what could happen if god forbid it actually started a chain reaction and set these things off...
