THE SATANIC ELITE: AMERICAN MIND CONTROL AND WORLD GOVERNMENT
By Paul McGuire
December 10, 2012
NewsWithViews.com
There exists a secretive Satanic elite, that consists of perhaps twelve men at the very top, who rule the world through banking and international finance. Publicly these men pretend to be humanists, but secretly they have to chosen to worship Lucifer. They are now in the process of the final take over, where they will bring in a one world government and one world economic system, beginning as early as 2018. Their primary means of achieving this goal is through control of the economy and through scientific mind control.
In the United States, the primary evidence for the success of their mind control operation is the fact that the thinking, belief systems, morality, behavior and religious beliefs of the average American have radically changed in just a few short decades. The elites have perfected social engineering to such an extent that they have now indoctrinated several generations of Americans into being anti-Christian, anti-American and Marxist in their belief systems.
The stealthy nature of their strategy has developed politicians at the highest level who are programmed like Manchurian candidates with synthetic personalities and they have developed Manchurian actors and entertainers as well.

EGYPTIAN AMBASSADOR INVITES RELATIONS WITH TERRORIST GROUP
THE BLAZE
Signaling just how much Egypt has changed since President Mohammed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood took power, Egypt’s ambassador to Lebanon over the weekend suggested his country is warming to Hezbollah, a group the U.S. defines as a terrorist organization.
In a Saturday interview to Lebanon’s Daily Star, Ambassador Ashraf Hamdy said Egypt will pursue relations with Hezbollah, because the radical Shiite group is a “real political and military force” in Lebanon.
The Jerusalem Post is characterizing his words as a “dramatic policy shift.”
Russia Today is calling the announcement “a U-turn in policy” since in the past Egypt had accused Hezbollah of operating terror cells in its territory.

‘Islamists’ slaughter 15 people in their sleep
Yobe – The Joint Task Force (JTF) in Yobe on Sunday said four insurgents had been killed and 59 suspects arrested in an operation in Yindiski area of Potiskum Local Government.
A statement by Lt. Eli Lazarus, JTF spokesman, stated that one policeman died and a soldier, who sustained injury, was receiving treatment.
The statement said “four AK 47 rifles, one double barrel gun, 16 magazines and 380 rounds of ammunitions were recovered”. It said other items recovered in the operation included two gas cylinders and materials used for improvised explosive devices.
The statement urged the public to provide the task force with useful information on suspicious movements and persons in their locality.
Also suspected Islamist extremists have killed 15 People by slitting their throats in an attack on a village in volatile northeast, residents and a relief source said Sunday.
The gruesome violence was the latest to be blamed on Islamist extremist group Boko Haram, though this Christmas season has been notably less bloody than in 2011, when attacks on churches and other locations left scores dead.
...“From the information we gathered, the attackers broke into selected homes and slaughtered 15 people in their sleep,” the relief official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak publicly.
...While Boko Haram’s victims have often included Muslims, the group has also specifically targeted Christians, including bombings of churches. There have previously been instances of victims having their throats slit in attacks.
President Goodluck Jonathan has accused the group of seeking to ignite a religious crisis in the nation of some 160 million people.

EU Leader Calls for Global Governance With Russia
THE NEW AMERICAN
While much of the Christian and post-Christian worlds were busy rushing about in last-minute preparations for Christmas celebrations, an important event took place in Brussels, Belgium, that went largely unnoticed and unreported. Leaders of the European Union and Russia met in Brussels on December 20 and 21 for the 30th EU-Russia Summit, continuing a process of convergence and interdependence that is leading toward political, economic, and social merger.
In his remarks at the conclusion of the summit, Herman Van Rompuy, president of the European Council, made repeated reference to progress toward the goal of “global governance,” which has always been code in globalist circles for world government. Van Rompuy stated:
By working together, the EU and Russia can make a decisive contribution to global governance and regional conflict resolution, to global economic governance in the G 8 and G 20, and to a broad range of international and regional issues. I would like to congratulate President Putin for taking over the presidency of G 20.
As we have reported in this magazine many times, the term “global governance” is an intentionally deceptive term, used by political ruling elites because it is more vague and mushy and sounds less threatening than “global government” or “world government.” Hence, there will be less political opposition mounted to “global governance” than “world government.”
“Global governance” came into vogue in the late 1990s, following the publication in 1995 of Our Global Neighborhood, a report of the UN-appointed Commission on Global Governance. That report attempted emphatically to assure readers that they had nothing to fear; they were not proposing world government. It claimed:
Global governance is not global government. No misunderstanding should arise from the similarity of the terms. We are not proposing movement towards world government.
United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan practiced the same semantic sleight-of-hand and false assurance at the UN Millennium Summit in New York City in 2000. In his report We the Peoples: The Role of the United Nations in the 21st Century, Annan called for “new forms of global governance,” “a new ethic of global stewardship,” “global norms,” and “global rules” — all of which assume a role for the UN as global legislator.

The Reason For His Coming
1John 3:8
The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.
Isaiah 61
61 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor;
he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor,
and the day of vengeance of our God;
to comfort all who mourn;
3 to grant to those who mourn in Zion—
to give them a beautiful headdress instead of ashes,
the oil of gladness instead of mourning,
the garment of praise instead of a faint spirit;
that they may be called oaks of righteousness,
the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.

Muslims attack second church on Christmas day, 12 Christians Dead
#MyJihad in Nigeria: Muslims attack second church on Christmas day, have now murdered at least 12 Christians - JIHAD WATCH.com
12/25/2012 Washington D.C. (International Christian Concern) – International Christian Concern (ICC) has learned that at least twelve Christians, including a pastor and a deacon, were killed by unknown gunmen in separate attacks in Northern Nigeria. The gunmen are suspected to be connected to the extremist group Boko Haram. Witnesses told the press that the gunmen also set a church on fire on Christmas Eve in connection with the attack.
Late on Christmas Eve, gunmen entered the village of Peri in Nigeria’s “middle belt” state of Yobe. “A group of gunmen entered the village around midnight and went straight to the church,” a resident of Peri told the Deccan Chronicle. “They opened fire on them, killing the pastor and five worshipers. They then set fire to the [Evangelical Church of West Africa in Peri].”

Muslim Terrorists Attack Midnight Mass
Muslim Terrorists Attack Midnight Mass, Kill Pastor, Set Church on Fire
FRONTPAGEMAG.COM
The Boko Haram gunmen burst in at 2 AM through a back door, opening fire on the worshipers killing five, including the pastor, and injuring a number of others.Then they set fire to the church along with the houses of Christians living in the area.
“It is highly disturbing and very barbaric. It is archaic,” Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, said, “It is totally against God and anything that has to do with Him. You wonder how people will go to this extent in the name of God. “Let us not continue to deny that there are jihadists, extremists and Islamists in this country. They are here. Let us agree that it is time for us to take certain steps to bring this madness to an end.”
2012 has been the bloodiest year for Boko Haram attacks in Nigeria with over 750 deaths in the Islamic group’s campaign of ethnic cleansing in the north. That wave of violence, mostly ignored by Obama, has left Nigerian Christians feeling insecure in their own country.

Those Who Work Evil Eat My People
Psalm 53
1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity;
there is none who does good.
2 God looks down from heaven
on the children of man
to see if there are any who understand,
who seek after God.
3 They have all fallen away;
together they have become corrupt;
there is none who does good,
not even one.
4 Have those who work evil no knowledge,
who eat up my people as they eat bread,
and do not call upon God?
5 There they are, in great terror,
where there is no terror!
For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you;
you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.
6 Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores the fortunes of his people,
let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.
Have those who work evil no knowledge,
who eat up my people

26 reported killed in Newton, Conn., school shooting
NEWTOWN, Conn. -- A lone gunman killed 26 people at an elementary school here, including 18 children, in a terrifying early Friday morning shooting spree.
The Associated Press and local media reported the shooter, an unidentified adult male, was also dead at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Two handguns were recovered at the scene. Mayor Mark Boughton said several victims had been taken to local hospitals.
Groups of students — some crying, some holding hands — were being escorted away from the school by their teachers. Some witnesses reported of up to 100 shots.
The shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School is the latest in a series mass shootings in the U.S. this year, including Tuesday's assault by a lone gunman at a Portland, OR., shopping mall that left two dead and one wounded.

Islam's Quest For Global Domination
The Salafi Crusades
David Greenfield, Frontpagemag.com
"...The land rush of the Arab Spring has begun as secular governments affiliated with Russia and the United States fall, to be replaced by believers in an emerging Islamist Caliphate. The Arab Spring isn’t 1848; it’s 638, the Mohamedan expansion at the expense of the ailing Byzantine Empire, a rampage that eventually ended in the Islamization of the Middle East. For Salafis, this is their opportunity to Re-Islamize the Middle East under the full force of Islamic law.
The Salafi crusades are the beginning of a new wave of global conquests, with old sheiks using oil money from the decadent West to outfit militias of young men with top quality American and Russian weapons before sending them off to die, while they wait for news of the new caliphate and bed down with their eight wife.
This isn’t an entirely new game. Bin Laden was playing it for decades and Salafi crusaders have been fighting the Ottoman Empire and massacring Shiites for centuries. The notion of the Salafis threatening the Middle East and the whole world would have been even more absurd if American oil companies hadn’t rewarded their tribal allies with inconceivable wealth while turning a blind eye to their ambitions. And the notion that the Salafi crusade would ever extend to Europe would have been even more absurd, if not for the jet plane and the liberal immigration policies of Socialist governments with aging populations looking for a tax base and a voting base."

California Episcopal Church to Host, Support Islamist Convention
Creeping Sharia
The Muslim Public Affairs Council’s choice of location for its 12th Annual Convention on December 15 is telling: The All Saints Episcopal Church of Pasadena, California. The group, founded by Muslim Brotherhood followers, says this is the “next step in its mission by crossing the interfaith line.” Yet again, the Islamists are taking advantage of naïve Christians with a desire to show off their tolerance.
The All Saints Episcopal Church of Pasadena started an Interfaith Study Group in 2007 with the Pasadena Jewish Temple and the Islamic Center of Southern California (ICSC), from which MPAC originated. The organization was founded as a branch of ICSC in 1986 and then became independent in 1988, though the two remain intertwined. The ICSC is proud of its interfaith successes. For example, the First United Methodist Church of Santa Monica is allowing the ICSC to hold Friday prayers there every week.
The story of MPAC begins with Hassan and Maher Hathout, the former of whom died in 2009. The brothers became active with the Muslim Brotherhood at an early age, with Hassan Hathout saying that its founder, Hassan al-Banna, is “the person who most influenced my life” and that “centuries might roll over before a similar personality is produced.” Maher Hathout was arrested in Egypt, where the Muslim Brotherhood was banned, and released in 1968. Three years later, they moved to Buffalo, New York and went to California to establish the ICSC in 1978.
Hassan Hathout says they sought to begin the “Islamic Movement” in the U.S., a term the Brotherhood uses to describe its ideology.
Ryan Mauro details the terrorist supporting Muslims behind MPAC. Read it all.
He also debates terror-supporting MPAC in a Southern California Public Radio interview on the interfaith/dawah issue here. It’s essentially 2 on 1 as the radio host fully backs MPAC, Islam, sharia and Muslims throughout the interview. It’s worth a listen if for nothing more than listening to how crafty Muslims slither into government favor and are master politicians.

Vatican Opens Exorcist Hotline
The Independent
Michael Day
Friday, 30 November 2012
The Catholic Church has established an exorcist hotline in Milan, its biggest diocese, to cope with demand. Monsignor Angelo Mascheroni, the diocese’s chief exorcist since 1995, said the curia had also appointed twice as many exorcists to cope with a doubling in the number of requests for help over 15 years.
“We get many requests for names, addresses and phone numbers; that’s why we’ve set up a switchboard in the curia from Monday to Friday from 2.30pm to 5pm,” he told the chiesadimilano website.
“People in need can call and will be able to find a priest in the same area who doesn’t have to travel too far.” And to that end, the number of demon-busting priests on call has increased from six to 12.
It’s not clear why the number of suspected possessions has risen so sharply. But Monsignor Mascheroni said that part of the increase might be explained by the rising numbers of parents having difficulty controlling disobedient teenagers.
“Usually the parents call [because they are] concerned about a child who won’t go to school or who’s taking drugs or rebelling. In reality it’s not a demon, but when they’re 18 years old young people don’t want to be told what to do.”
He warned that many worried and vulnerable people were at risk from charlatans. “Magicians demand money; we … give our time, give benediction … all for free. It couldn’t be any other way.”
The Monsignor said that all those who sought help were welcomed. But he added: “The real diabolical phenomena, at least in my experience, are very rare.” He said that “mental phenomena, mental and psychiatric disorders” were often to blame for unusual behaviour.

The Catholic Church has established an exorcist hotline in Milan, its biggest diocese, to cope with demand. Monsignor Angelo Mascheroni, the diocese’s chief exorcist since 1995, said the curia had also appointed twice as many exorcists to cope with a doubling in the number of requests for help over 15 years.
“We get many requests for names, addresses and phone numbers; that’s why we’ve set up a switchboard in the curia from Monday to Friday from 2.30pm to 5pm,” he told the chiesadimilano website.

What on Earth Am I Here For?: Rick Warren Reinvents The Purpose Driven Life Machine
Rick Warren has announced the new church growth marketing campaign "What on earth am I here for?" in honor of the 10th year anniversary of his record selling book, The Purpose Driven Life.
From the Saddleback Church Sign up page:
This transformative book has been expanded and reimagined with 2 new chapters, a new cover, and free online extras that address the crucial needs of a new generation.
Warren's promotional video to pastors reveals a more mundane purpose of the campaign...repackaging and rebranding of Saddleback's spiritually agnostic training material delivered via a classic multi-level marketing platform all in the name of increasing the customer base. Warren even offers a Customer Care department, the toll-free number is 1-800-SADDLEBACK (723-3534).
From Warren's video: " I want to talk to you for just a few minutes about how you can help your church be stronger, healthier, more stable and experience exponential growth.
...I am often asked by people...what's the single most important ingredient in the growth of Saddleback church...It is the power of the annual campaign. I began to think, What are all the things i have learned in the last 10 years?
...Out of that emerged a whole new series, a whole new small group curriculum, several new chapters for the revised and expanded version of The Purpose Driven Life.
...Then I went back and began to write new sermon outlines...all that I learned about worship, fellowship, about discipleship, ministry and evangelism. I will be sharing these sermons with pastors as they do this campaign together.
So we are doing a brand new campaign...simply called What on earth am I here for? ...I'm going to share all that I have learned in the last ten years. Let's do it together. Let's watch our church grow. Let's watch our communities be infected with the good news of Jesus Christ..."
Warren announced his mainstream media engagements to roll out the campaign in January 2013...
TV SHOWS NEXT WEEK! In preparation for our completely new What On Earth Am I Here For? campaign in January, I travel to New York City next week for a couple of days of media interviews. Please pray for me as I will be a guest next Tuesday and Wednesday on… CBS THIS MORNING … FOX & FRIENDS … CHARLIE ROSE … CNN PIERS MORGAN … HANNITY …and several other TV shows.
Rick Warren's existing downline network of numbers-driven pastors no doubt will be excited about the fanfare surrounding the campaign remake of The Purpose Driven Life. “Exponential growth begins with exponential thinking.” - Rick Warren
Editor's note: It has been said that what you hook them with, is what you need to keep them with... Rick Warren's rebranding of his spiritual product line proves he is no exception to the rules of mass marketing.
Don't drink the Kool-Aid.

2And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you...

Three M-Class Flares w/ Earth Directed CMEs
by Mitch Battros - Earth Changes Media
Solar activity has been active for the past 48 hours. Three M-class flares have fired off from sunspot region 1618. The largest solar event of this period was an M3.6 flare event on Nov. 21st 15:10:00 UT. There was an M1.7 at 12:36:00 UT and M1.4 at 19:21:00 UT.
...A geomagnetic storm is expected on Nov. 22nd and 23rd and all three CMEs hit Earth's magnetic field. There is a greater than 70% chance of continued M-class flares from region 1618 with a 25% chance of X-class flares.
Watch for extreme weather events over the holidays - which include earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, and tropical storms. Also note - there has been a 6.0 magnitude or larger earthquake every day since the Nov. 13th total solar eclipse.

Israel, Gaza fighting rages on as Egypt seeks truce
GAZA/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel bombed Palestinian militant targets in the Gaza Strip from air and sea for a fifth straight day on Sunday, preparing for a possible ground invasion while also spelling out its conditions for a truce.
Palestinians launched dozens of rockets into Israel and targeted its commercial capital, Tel Aviv, for a fourth day. The "Iron Dome" missile shield shot down two of the rockets fired toward Israel's biggest city but falling debris from the interception hit a car, which caught fire. Its driver was not hurt.
In scenes recalling Israel's 2008-2009 winter invasion of the Gaza Strip, tanks, artillery and infantry massed in field encampments along the sandy border. Military convoys moved on roads in the area newly closed to civilian traffic.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was ready to widen its offensive.

Signs in the sun, moon, and stars and upon Earth, a distress of nations with perplexity: massive explosion seen on the sun -The Extinction Protocol
November 18, 2012 - SUN – A truly gigantic explosion happened on the sun yesterday. On Nov. 16th, magnetic fields snaking halfway across the sun’s southern hemisphere erupted in tandem, producing a prominence so big, it doesn’t fit inside this image from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO): “The red-glowing looped material is plasma, a hot gas made of electrically charged hydrogen and helium,” officials with NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, which oversees the SDO mission, explained in a description. “The prominence plasma flows along a tangled and twisted structure of magnetic fields generated by the sun’s internal dynamo. An erupting prominence occurs when such a structure becomes unstable and bursts outward, releasing the plasma.” The blast hurled a CME into space, but the cloud does not appear to be heading for Earth. –Space Weather
We are passing through a rare singular series of events in history that are coinciding by occurrence: a total solar eclipse, the peak of the Leonid meteor shower, and a large explosion occurring on the Sun; in effect, signs in the sun, moon, and stars all transpiring within days of each other. These celestial events are happening at the time a war wages around Jerusalem, a city considered holy to the world’s three major faiths: Jews, Christians, and Muslims.-The Extinction Protocol

Escalation: Hamas launches a Fajr-5 missile at Tel Aviv
Homeland Security Newswire
Analysis// By Ben Frankel Escalation: Hamas launches a Fajr-5 missile at Tel Aviv
An hour-and-a-half ago -- around 11:30am EST, 18:30 Israel time – Palestinians from Gaza launched a Fajr-5 missile at Tel Aviv; Hamas said the missile was launched by the Islamic Jihad organization; the missile fell south of Tel Aviv, causing no damage or casualties; there is no doubt that a direct attack by Hamas on Tel Aviv constitutes, for Israel, a crossing a clearly delineated red line; what should we expect now? There are two possibilities: Hamas may consider the symbolic value of launching a missile at Tel Aviv as balancing the substantial and material blows it has suffered in the last twenty-four hours, and agree to Egyptian efforts to mediate a cease fire; if the past is an indication, however, then Israel will move one rung up the escalation ladder in response to this crossing of an Israeli red line before agreeing to a cease fire with Hamas

Israel launches Gaza offensive, kills Hamas commander
GAZA (Reuters) - Israel launched a major offensive against Palestinian militants in Gaza on Wednesday, killing the military commander of Hamas in an air strike and threatening an invasion of the enclave that the Islamist group vowed would "open the gates of hell".
The onslaught shattered hopes that a truce mediated on Tuesday by Egypt could pull the two sides back from the brink of war after five days of escalating Palestinian rocket attacks and Israeli strikes at militant targets.

Will Eclipses of November Rock The World?
In the excerpts below By Eli MacKinnon,
LifesLittleMysteries.com, two eclipses are described for November:
"...The theatrics start on Nov. 13, when residents of northeastern Australia get a false-start sunrise. Just an hour after the sun breaks the horizon in the coastal city of Cairns...
... a penumbral lunar eclipse that will take place on Nov 28"
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/49700582/ns/technology_and_science-science/
Editor's note: These two events represent celestial alignments between the sun, moon and the earth.
Such alignments create geomagnetic and atmospheric disturbances for the earth that increase the risk of quakes, volcanic eruptions and severe weather for 8-10 days after the event.
The eclipse / disaster threat window opens November 13 through December 13 (+- a few days).
Given the current seismic activity on the West Coast of the US, this should be of strong concern.
Brace yourself and prepare.

Small earthquake rattles some northern New Jersey towns still dealing with effects of Sandy
AP-
RINGWOOD, N.J. — Some residents in northern New Jersey awoke to a small earthquake early Monday.
The temblor, with a magnitude of 2.0, struck at 1:19 a.m. and was centered in Ringwood, a community that’s still dealing with downed trees and power outages from Sandy.
Geophysicist Jessica Turner at the National Earthquake Information Center says some people reported hearing a loud boom. Turner says those on upper floors of a home might have felt shaking or saw objects on walls vibrate.
The quake was 3 miles below ground and could also be felt in Mahwah, Wanaque, Oakland, Franklin Lakes, West Milford and Paterson.

The Cult of The Muslim Brotherhood
The Muslim Brotherhood from within - THE DAILY NEWS: EGYPT
"...It takes about five to eight years to transform from an aspiring member to a fully integrated Muslim Brother. During this period, the loyalty of the aspiring member is closely monitored and his dedication to the cause and the doctrine is closely watched.
...As soon as you are admitted into the Brotherhood, you become a muhib, a word that literally means lover or follower. This phase could last between six months and four years depending on the performance and the improvement of the aspiring member. During that phase the follower joins a local usra (family) which is a group of four to five people that meets regularly and where the piety, morality and ideology of the aspirant are closely watched
After the leader of the family decides that the follower has shown sufficient piety and knowledge of Islamic texts, the candidate is moved to a more advanced phase where he becomes a muayyed (supporter). During the “supporter” phase, duties towards the organisation must be fulfilled and a curriculum of study completed. Upon finishing that phase, you are moved to a higher rank and become muntasib (affiliated).
As soon as you become affiliated, you start donating a portion of your earnings to the organisation, usually five to eight per cent. In the “affiliated” phase your loyalty and commitment are closely probed. If you satisfy those who monitor you, usually over the course of a year, you are then allowed to the phase of muntazim or organised brother and you can assume lower levels of leadership. Finally, if you pass all the tests that the Brotherhood will subject you to; you are admitted into the final stage of membership which is ach amil or working brother.
This cult-like process is how our current leaders have been formed and how the Brotherhood is carefully forming future ones. This quasi-fascist structure where your loyalty is always put to question and your personal life is watched at every moment is the mechanism by which Muslim Brothers are produced."

Day of The Dead: Pope celebrates Feast of All Souls in papal crypt
Vatican City, Nov 2, 2012 / 03:27 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- As Catholics around the world on Nov. 2 remember those who have passed away, Pope Benedict XVI visited the Vatican Grottoes to pray for his predecessors on the feast of All Souls.
In remarks made in St. Peter's square Nov. 1 anticipating All Souls day, Pope Benedict said the feast “helps us to reflect on the double horizon of humanity, which we symbolically express with the words 'earth' and 'heaven.'”
He noted on Thursday that All Souls should remind Catholics of the reality of the communion of saints – a reality uniting all believers, living and dead.
“The earth represents the journey of history, heaven eternal, the fullness of life in God,” he said. “These two dimensions are united by the reality of the 'communion of saints': a reality that begins here on earth and that reaches its fulfillment in heaven.”
The feast of All Souls is celebrated throughout the entire Catholic world with particular zeal in country's animated by the heritage of Spanish Catholicism.
In the Philippines, families traditionally celebrate the feast by camping in cemeteries and often spending the night near relatives' tombs, playing card games, singing, and dancing. Tombs are also cleaned or repainted, flowers are offered and candles are lit.
In Mexico, the Day of the Dead – “Día de los Muertos” – is a national holiday centered around the Feast of All Souls and the Feast of All Saints, celebrated the day before. It is traditional to build altars in honor of the dead and adorn them with the deceased's favorite foods and beverages as well as sugar-candy skulls and marigolds.
Msgr. Peter Fleetwood of the Archdiocese of Liverpool in the U.K. remarked that the feast of All Souls is a time for remembrance as well as the natural reaction of sadness.
“To have a special time in the year when you can dedicate time and prayer to the memory of your dear departed,” he told Vatican Radio, “that responds to a very deep need in all of us.”
“You do get used to missing someone but you never really get over it,” he added.
“I think the fact of the church adopting a day when Masses are offered for the souls of the faithful departed – and in fact a whole month where such things happen – is simply recognizing how real that need is and how important is is to respect the name, the person, the mortal remains and the memory of those who have died.”

Egypt: Muslim Brotherhood says new constitution must be based on Sharia
Jihad Watch
What a surprise. "Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood says new constitution must be based on Islamic Shariah law," from the Associated Press, October 31 (thanks to Nichole):
CAIRO – Egypt's powerful Muslim Brotherhood says Islamic Shariah law must be the basis of Egypt's new constitution, and legislation must be based on Islamic penal code.
The Brotherhood said in a statement Wednesday that a country ruled by Shariah would not become a theocracy. President Mohammed Morsi comes from the Brotherhood....
Not a theocracy? Oh, well, then!
The 100-member Islamist-led panel tasked with drafting the new document has been facing heavy criticism, mostly from liberals who fear Islamization of Egypt through its work....
No kidding, really?
Editor's note: The Muslim Brotherhood has an extensive, well-financed network here in the US...and their objective is the same as it is for Egypt.
The sword of the Islamic salafis is coming upon this land.

At least 16 deaths, 6.2 million without power in Superstorm Sandy's wake
Chicago Tribune
Tribune wire reports
2:27 a.m. CDT, October 30, 2012
Superstorm Sandy slammed into the New Jersey coastline with 80 mph winds Monday night and hurled an unprecedented 13-foot surge of seawater at New York City, flooding its tunnels, subway stations and the electrical system that powers Wall Street.
At least 16 U.S. deaths were blamed on the storm, which brought the presidential campaign to a halt a week before Election Da. Sandy also killed 66 people in the Caribbean.
For New York City at least, Sandy was not the days-long onslaught many had feared, and the wind and rain that sent water sloshing into Manhattan from three sides began dying down within hours.
XCrew rescued from HMS BountyTrack Sandy's pathA Web guide to tracking Hurricane Sandy Ads by GoogleStill, the power was out for hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers and an estimated 6.2 million people altogether across the East. The full extent of the storm's damage across the region was unclear, and unlikely to be known until daybreak.

East Coast Bracing For Frankenstorm Sandy
East Coast Readies for Hurricane Sandy, Winter Storm -ABC NEWS
"It's looking like a very serious storm that could be historic," said Jeff Masters, meteorology director of the forecasting service Weather Underground. "Mother Nature is not saying, 'Trick or treat.' It's just going to give tricks."
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration forecaster Jim Cisco, who coined the nickname Frankenstorm, said: "We don't have many modern precedents for what the models are suggesting."
Government forecasters said there is a 90 percent chance — up from 60 percent two days earlier — that the East will get pounded.
Coastal areas from Florida to Maine will feel some effects, but the storm is expected to vent the worst of its fury on New Jersey and the New York City area, which could see around 5 inches of rain and gale-force winds close to 40 mph. Eastern Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania and western Virginia could get snow.
Editor's note: The threat of X-class flares next week adds a new dimension of risk to this event and / or another natural disaster follow-on event may occur due to the disruption of the earth's geomagnetic field during the same time period.
Brace yourself. Prepare now for anything.

RSOE EDIS: Japan - Volcano Eruption
RSOE
Description:
An underwater volcanic eruption was detected Wednesday morning close to Minami-Iwoto island in the Pacific Ocean and an expert speculated that the eruption could form a permanent island. A coast guard vessel spotted a white plume of smoke rising from the sea about three miles north-northeast of the island. It was the first time since July 2005 that volcanic smoke had been detected in the area, which is located about 745 miles south of central Tokyo. According to an announcement by the 3rd Regional Coast Guard Headquarters of the Japan Coast Guard, based in Yokohama, the volcano spewed ash and smoke about 100 meters into the air, and the surrounding sea area changed to a yellowish-green color while other parts became a cloudy gray. According to the Meteorological Agency, the volcano, known as Fukutokuokanoba, has erupted seven times since 1904, when its activities were first recorded. On three occasions, land masses were formed, but all later sank below the waterline. Tokyo Institute of Technology Prof. Kenji Nogami, an expert in geoscience, said: "In the 1986 eruption, a new island appeared after lava accumulated. The island was washed away by waves, but seabed upheaval reduced the water depth to 22 meters in 1999. It's possible that this (recent) volcanic activity could form a permanent island."

Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood official calls for 'holy jihad' against Israel
Jerusalem Chronicle
By Anna Sheinman, October 12, 2012
Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt Mohammed Badie said on Thursday that Arabs must deal with Israel “through holy Jihad, high sacrifices and all forms of resistance”.
In a public address, reported by Egyptian daily newspaper Al-Ahram, the leading official of the ruling political party said: “The time has come for the Islamic nation to unite around one man for the sake of Jerusalem and Palestine,”
He continued: “The Jews have dominated the land, spread corruption on earth, spilled the blood of believers and in their actions profaned holy places, including their own.”
“Zionists only understand the language of force and will not relent without duress,” said Mr Badie. “This will only happen through holy Jihad, high sacrifices and all forms of resistance. The day they realize we will march this path and raise the banner of Jihad for the sake of God, is the day they will relent and stop their tyranny.”
Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi was a presidential candidate for the Muslim Brotherhood, but resigned from all official positions in the organisation when he took office. He has recently named an ambassador to Israel.

North Korea claims U.S. mainland within reach of missiles
North Korea on Tuesday warned that the U.S. mainland is within range of its missiles, and said Washington's recent agreement to let Seoul possess missiles capable of hitting all of the North shows the allies are plotting to invade the country.
Seoul announced Sunday it reached a deal with Washington that would allow it to nearly triple the range of its missiles to better cope with North Korean missile and nuclear threats. On Tuesday, North Korea called the deal a "product of another conspiracy of the master and the stooge" to "ignite a war" against the North.

NATO will 'protect and defend Turkey' if Syria launches an attack
Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said NATO will support Turkey if it is attacked by Syria
Tensions have been escalating since Syrian shells struck a border town in Turkey killing five civilians last week
Syria's revolt against President Bashar al-Assad threatening to draw in regional powers
NATO will defend Turkey from being attacked by Syria as tensions continue to escalate between the two countries, the head of the military alliance announced today.
NATO ambassadors threw their support behind Turkey in an emergency meeting after Syrian shells struck a border town in Turkey killing five civilians last week.
The two neighbours have repeatedly exchanged fire since then, the most serious outbreak of cross-border violence since Syria's revolt against President Bashar al-Assad erupted 18 months ago.

The Redeemer From Old
Isaiah 63
15 Look down from heaven and see,
from your holy and beautiful habitation.
Where are your zeal and your might?
The stirring of your inner parts and your compassion
are held back from me.
16 For you are our Father,
though Abraham does not know us,
and Israel does not acknowledge us;
you, O Lord, are our Father,
our Redeemer from of old is your name.
17 O Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways
and harden our heart, so that we fear you not?
Return for the sake of your servants,
the tribes of your heritage.
18 Your holy people held possession for a little while;
our adversaries have trampled down your sanctuary.
19 We have become like those over whom you have never ruled,
like those who are not called by your name.
15 Look down from heaven and see,
from your holy and beautiful habitation.
Where are your zeal and your might?
The stirring of your inner parts and your compassion
are held back from me.
16 For you are our Father,
though Abraham does not know us,
and Israel does not acknowledge us;
you, O Lord, are our Father,
our Redeemer from of old is your name.
17 O Lord, why do you make us wander from your ways
and harden our heart, so that we fear you not?
Return for the sake of your servants,
the tribes of your heritage.
18 Your holy people held possession for a little while;
our adversaries have trampled down your sanctuary.
19 We have become like those over whom you have never ruled,
like those who are not called by your name.

Behold, Your Salvation Comes
Isaiah 62
6 On your walls, O Jerusalem,
I have set watchmen;
all the day and all the night
they shall never be silent.
You who put the Lord in remembrance,
take no rest,
7 and give him no rest
until he establishes Jerusalem
and makes it a praise in the earth.
8 The Lord has sworn by his right hand
and by his mighty arm:
“I will not again give your grain
to be food for your enemies,
and foreigners shall not drink your wine
for which you have labored;
9 but those who garner it shall eat it
and praise the Lord,
and those who gather it shall drink it
in the courts of my sanctuary.”[e]
10 Go through, go through the gates;
prepare the way for the people;
build up, build up the highway;
clear it of stones;
lift up a signal over the peoples.
11 Behold, the Lord has proclaimed
to the end of the earth:
Say to the daughter of Zion,
“Behold, your salvation comes;
behold, his reward is with him,
and his recompense before him.”
12 And they shall be called The Holy People,
The Redeemed of the Lord;
and you shall be called Sought Out,
A City Not Forsaken.

Why Do The Nations Rage?
Psalm 2
English Standard Version (ESV)
The Reign of the Lord's Anointed
2 Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying,
3 “Let us burst their bonds apart
and cast away their cords from us.”
4 He who sits in the heavens laughs;
the Lord holds them in derision.
5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath,
and terrify them in his fury, saying,
6 “As for me, I have set my King
on Zion, my holy hill.”
7 I will tell of the decree:
The Lord said to me, “You are my Son;
today I have begotten you.
8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage,
and the ends of the earth your possession.
9 You shall break them with a rod of iron
and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.”
10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son,
lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him.

Multiple Quakes Strike China
RSOE
Chinese state media say a series of earthquakes in southwestern China has killed at least 43 people and injured scores of others. The official Xinhua news agency says the 5.7-magnitude quake and several subsequent tremors hit Yunnan and Guizhou provinces Friday, damaging about 40,000 homes in the area. At least 16 aftershocks have been reported. Television footage showed hundreds of people gathered on streets strewn with fallen bricks and rocks in the town of Yiliang, which appears to have been the worst hit. Officials said emergency aid is being sent to Yunnan, where more than 100,000 people have been evacuated

The Threat of Sharia and the Leadership of America’s Two Parties
JudicialWatch.org cites former Central Intelligence Agency Director Jim Woolsey, a foreign policy specialist who has worked for both Democratic and Republican administrations, as saying that the United States is, not only at war with terrorists such as Al Qaeda and Hezbollah, but also with those who, over the long run, want to impose Sharia law. The former CIA Director indicated that Sharia is a theocratic dictatorship, extremely opposed to democracy and a movement to eliminate and destroy western civilization. He has also pointed out that the radical Islamic group, the Muslim Brotherhood, is largely behind the effort to bring Sharia to the United States.

Egypt: Kill a Christian, Collect a Reward
...Already under President Morsi's first two months, Islamists have become more emboldened—whether by pressuring women to wear the hijab, by killing a Muslim youth for publicly holding hands with his fiancée, or by disseminating flyers that call for the total genocide of Egypt's Christian Copts. The flyers include the names and contact points for those Muslims who wish to collect their rewards for killing Christians.

US disowns Israel over Iran strike
Debka File:
US Gen. Martin Dempsey’s assertion Thursday, Aug. 30 that the US would not be “complicit” in an Israel strike against Iran, together with the drastic reduction in the scale of next month’s joint US-Israeli war game disclosed by TIME, add up to a blunt message from US President Barack Obama to Israel: You are on your own! See how you manage without special US weapons and US military backup, including a shield against missile counter-attack, if you decide to defy us and go through with a military operation against Iran.
Instead of the 5,000 US troops originally assigned for Austere Challenge 12, the annual joint exercise, the Pentagon will send only 1,200 to 1,500 service members. The missile interception systems at the core of the joint exercise will be reduced in number and potency: Patriot anti-missiles will come without crews and maybe one instead of two Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense warships, according to the magazine.
debkafile’s military sources: The Obama administration has put Israel on harsh notice that an attack on Iran to disrupt or delay its nuclear armament will be refused US missile backup - both in the course of the operation and to cover Israel’s back in the event of a counter-strike widening into a general Middle East conflict. The Netanyahu government will bear full and exclusive responsibility for the consequences of attacking Iran.

Quake Swarm Strikes California
More than 210 earthquakes hit state of California on Sunday with the strongest measured 5.5. The earthquakes were felt as far away as San Diego, Temecula and San Clemente. The first quake occurred about three miles northwest of Brawley, registered as magnitude 3.8 temblor. It was followed by a swarm of quakes in the same area, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
The earthquakes are occurring on a northeast striking fault zone located about 6 km north of the northwest end of the mapped Imperial Valley fault. This is within the area called the Brawley Seismic Zone. The BSZ extends from the northern end of the Imperial fault to the southern end of the San Andreas fault. It has been characterized by swarms that have occurred in the 1930s, the 1960s, and 1970s. The last significant swarm before this one occurred in 2005 along the south shore of the Salton Sea, with the largest event of M5.1. In 1981 there was swarm-like activity called the Westmoreland sequence, with a largest event of M 5.8, which occurred 8 km to the northwest of to days activity. Some of the aftershocks of the Mw6.4 1979 earthquake occurred in the same general area.

Stand With Apprising Ministries
Apprising Ministries continues in our labors along the Internet Front to track church trends for you and to expose various kinds of important issues and spiritual monkey business afoot. For example, Joel Osteen Has Influenced Steven Furtick Longer Than You May Know and Homosexuality And Jonathan Merritt.
We’re blessed here at AM to be among the few online apologetics and discernment ministries (OADM) pioneering a mission field Jesus is raising up for a time like this. Straight up: you need to know that it’s actually way worse out there than we can even keep you aware of right now.
Unfortunately, evangelical leaders were unable to discern the time in which they now live; so, rather than standing up against this New Downgrade, they apparently have decided to join it. Seriously, there’s all kinds pious talk today, as well as praise for people like Charles Spurgeon,
However, as this New Downgrade spreads rapidly, I’ve yet to see a Spurgeon arise among them. If those whom the Lord allowed leadership status and high profile ministries more thoroughly covered these things in the church visible, then you’d have never even heard of someone like Ken Silva.
Ministries like this appreciate people who are concerned with various issues within the church visible and who take the time to send us names, topics, and links on the Net for us to look into. The truth is, we in legitimate OADM don’t scour the Internet looking for problems; rather, they are sent to us.
You are more than welcome to continue to do so; and please don’t grow discouraged if we don’t immediately get to it. Often these things kind of fit together like a bad jigsaw puzzle, where we can’t add a particular piece until the others finally fall in place. Make sense.
Along this same line, I get many emails a day and at this time I’m still well behind. Some of them may have been buried in the email avalanche I’m working my way through. I do read all that I get and try and respond as quickly as I can. Please feel free to resend if I’ve not gotten back to you lately. 
I would also ask that you keep in mind AM is currently in a really bad slump as far as donations go. We do have a surplus designed to carry us through times like this but this slow summer season was worse than usual and we’re rather concerned because we really are eating up a whole lot more of that surplus than last year.
Perhaps you’ve been blessed through the work here and maybe you might consider helping to support this labor in the Lord. Please know that at this time a gift of any amount—whether one time or on a regular basis—goes a long way toward helping to keep AM available to serve the church in this growing apostasy.
The Lord knows, I hate talking about this subject. That aside, if you’d like to donate via PayPal you may click here; or you can make your checks/money orders payable to Connecticut River Baptist Church with Apprising Ministries in the memo and send them to:
Connecticut River Baptist Church
P.O. Box 340
Claremont, NH 03743
May the Lord richly bless you for standing with us through these years and reward you for your ongoing kindness to me in my work here at Apprising Ministries. In Jesus’ name, amen. Soli Deo gloria!

Tim Tebow Responds To Casting of Stones
TIM TEBOW RESPONDS TO JESUS POSE ACCUSATION
From Apprising Ministries:
From Apprising Ministries:
It seems clear that GQ did secure the right to use it. Today I’m told by a source who claims to know Tim Tebow that the photographer was taking pictures of him as he did his warmup for practice.
They say that Tebow wasn’t actually posing as Jesus at all; but rather, he was simply stretching. Since I personally never used a stretch like that for my players in warmup I wouldn’t recognize it as such.
Now, according to Tim Tebow himself, he doesn’t actually remember exactly what he was doing that day six years ago but insists that he was “absolutely not” trying to do a crucifixion pose:
“Honestly, I didn’t even know until — actually probably most of [you] knew that I was on there before I knew, so it kind of was a shocker for me,” Tebow said in comments to the media, which were transcribed and distributed by the team.“It was something that I think I did maybe six years ago in college. Honestly the first time I heard [it] was when we were in the cafeteria and it was on ESPN. That’s when I found out, so it was kind of a shocker to me as well.”It’s hardly obvious that the photos are outdated; the most controversial image appears to have Tebow in a crucifix pose, with the color dulled to the point where it creates the impression that the pants are Jet green and not Gator blue.“Was I trying to do anything as far as the crucifix?” Tebow said. “Absolutely not. I mean, I don’t know — it was six years ago, I don’t even remember what I was doing, but I wasn’t trying to do anything like that though.” (source)
