Thank you for sharing that with us, Ladislaus.

You're very welcome, gladius. Even if my analysis happens to be wrong, it's interesting nonetheless and could give us some hope that this nightmare may soon be over. God leaves prophecy to (among other reasons) help console and strengthen those who might be living through the times foretold. I saw some (Protestant) studies that used 360-day years to apply the 69 weeks (of years) in Daniel to come up with the precise time (to the very DAY) between the decree to rebuild the temple and Our Lord's resurrection.

I was thinking that Daniel used days here because he wanted the extra precision of being able to write about half a year.

I've LONG thought that the NOM must be the abomination of desolation. That phrase fits it so well. And someone once wrote in to the Dimonds that the phrase about an altar being place against altar referred to a second altar being placed in the temple right in front of the other one--as happened during the Antiochus abomination. And so many NO churches have exactly that setup, with the Luther-table being place in front of the traditional altar (which was left because it was too expensive/difficult to remove).

Interestingly, Daniel was speaking about two different abomination of desolation events, parallel with one another. Our Lord spoke of the abomination as coming in the future, and I recall that there are some indications in Daniel that there would be two of these events, one foreshadowing the other. Interestingly, the Dimonds published someone else's analysis which showed erie parallels between four false high priests during the Maccabee times and John XXIII-John Paul II. Not sure where Benedict XVI fits in there.

I know that most of you don't like the Dimonds, but this analysis was fascinating. I'll try to dig it up and post it. It wasn't actually their idea. Evidently someone purporting to be a Biblical scholar wrote this thesis in to them.

And the Dimonds also had an interesting series of videos out making a pretty good case that the EU=the Beast and that the NO church=the whore of Babylon (riding the Beast). As with all things Dimond, some parts were less convincing than others, but it was pretty good overall. As I've said, I do NOT categorically endorse the Dimonds, but I give them credit for some of the good and intersting stuff they do put together.

Initially I bucked against their interpretation of Fatima, but finally conceded that it makes a certain amount of sense. Unlike them, however, I do think that there's a second (full) consecration coming and a TRUE era of real peace. That coincides with prophecies regarding the Great Monarch, the Holy Pope, and a period of Christendom being re-established throughout the world BEFORE the advent of Antichrist.

Interestingly, Daniel says that 1290 days (=43 years) pass after the abomination of desolation, but he doesn't say until WHAT. So perhaps the abomination of desolation lasts that long and we can hope that it will be removed from us on August 22, 2011 (Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary).

Or else something else begins on August 22, 2011 that will last until February 11, 2013, a chastisement.

Based on correlating it with Catholic prophecy, here's one possible scenario.

Beginning August 22, the Chastisement beings, leading eventually to the deaths of Benedict XVI and most of his cardinals. If you follow Father Gruner that the secret revealed by the Vatican was only part of it, Benedict XVI may himself literally live out the vision. Perhaps as he's going up the hill he can recall the false interpretation of that secret which he put out (along with Sodano and Bertone). There will be a terrible war, and plagues, and famine--and incredible chaos and death during this time. Eventually a Great Monarch emerges, a Holy Pope is elected (designated by Sts. Peter and Paul), that Pope and the bishops consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary (many prophecies foretell Russia as the instrument of this Chastisement, and as overrunning Europe, destroying the Vatican, etc.) As a result of this consecration, the Three Days of Darkness comes to wipe out the major enemies of the Church (perhaps around Christmas time 2012?), and the tide turns so dramatically and miraculously as a direct and obvious result of the consecration, that many come to believe in the True Faith as a result, and by February 2013 a new Christendom becomes established around the world.

Just what I needed to perk me up!

Thanks ever so, Ladislaus. :wink:

Oh, you're welcome also, Alexandria. I intially took this as a quasi-sarcastic comment :furtive: -- which it probably was

Well, it does assume that the NOM = the abomination of desolation.

I allways thought too NOM was most possibly the abomination of desolation!

Interesting posts Ladislaus!

Yes, the novus ordo began on the first Sunday of Advent, 1969 (a day that WILL live in infamy). So that would bring 43 years to 2012 instead of 2011?

Then this would explain why many people feel like they are losing their marbles (with the exception of a few, like Raoul :wink: ) - like the tension of what is to come is in the "spiritual atmosphere", and why crosses abound in personal lives.

We'll find out soon enough - if Our Lord grants us to live that long.

P.S. And, yes, I was being sarcastic. :cool:
