APOCALYPSE WARNING: End of the world and return of Jesus ‘will happen in next FEW years’

The World Bible Society believes that the world will end on or before the year 2021, with Jesus returning by 2028 after the apocalypse.

In a series of books, the World Bible Society president Dr F Kenton Beshore has outlined his predictions for the impending rapture, and believed it began almost a century ago.

In Biblical terms, Dr Beshore claims that a generation is “seventy years, or perhaps eighty, if we are strong”, leading him to the conclusion that World War Two and the birth of Israel marked the beginning of the end for humanity”.

In his book ‘When: When Will the Rapture Take Place?’, the theologian writes: “The parable of the fig tree is a prophecy of the rebirth of the nation of Israel.”

Some fear the rapture is imminent

He explains: “The Greek phrase ‘panta tauta’ that is translated ‘all these things’ refers to the beginning of birth pains (Matthew 24:8).

“Jesus was saying, in effect, that when you see the birth pains – World War I and II and famines, pestilences and earthquakes – you will know that His return is drawing near. The Greek word genea is translated ‘generation.’

Is the world set to end?

“It literally means ‘born one.’ Jesus said this ‘born one’ (nation of Israel) will be in existence when He returns.”

Dr Beshore adds: “Seven major signs have already been fulfilled, five major signs are currently being fulfilled, and 15 more major signs are yet to be fulfilled.

“Those who are watching are the Lord’s obedient servants. The Lord Jesus commanded us to watch for his return.”

He also predicts a war, with Israel at the centre opposing larger nations such as Iran and Russia while other religions will feel God’s wrath.

Dr Beshore: “When these nations come against Israel, God not only defeats these armies, but he sends fire on Russia and Iran and those that ‘dwell securely in the isles.’

“I see that as a removal of the Islamic presence. So it’s a great miracle that will cause many to turn to the Lord.”

Tabby’s star, also called the Boyajian star, is once again exhibiting an eccentric pattern of dimming and brightening, prompting astronomers around the world to turn their telescopes towards it in the hopes of solving the mystery behind its strange behavior, as reported by Gizmodo.

Back in September 2015, a team of scientists led by Tabetha Boyajian (the star’s namesake) detected an irregularity in Tabby’s star’s brightness. Scientists presented several interesting hypotheses that could explain its behavior, including a swarm of comets, a recently-destroyed planet, and massive electromagnetic activity. But perhaps the most exotic hypothesis that’s been forwarded is the possibility that the star’s dimming was caused by an “alien megastructure,” or a Dyson sphere. With the amount of alleged UFO sightings that have been reported since the Roswell incident, the “alien megastructure” theory has sparked interest from UFO enthusiasts around the world.

Jason Wright, Associate Professor of Astronomy and Astrophysics at Penn State, broke the news on Twitter, urging amateur and professional astronomers to point their telescopes towards Tabby’s star and to provide spectra results for further analysis.

“At about 4 a.m. this morning I got a phone call … that Fairborn [Observatory] in Arizona had confirmed that the star was three percent dimmer than it normally is,” Wright said during a live webcast yesterday at 2 p.m. EDT (1800 GMT). “That is enough that we are absolutely confident that this is no statistical fluke. We’ve now got it confirmed at multiple observatories, I think.”

What is a “spectra” and why was Mr. Wright asking for it? Fundamentally, a spectra is a set of data acquired using multi-color photometry. Its basic function is to give specific measurements at different wavelengths, helping scientists figure out what type of material is causing the star’s light to dip.

“Whatever’s causing the star to get dimmer will leave a spectral fingerprint behind,” Wright said during the webcast. “So if there is a lot of dust between us and the star … it will block more blue light than red light. If there is gas in that dust, that gas should absorb very specific wavelengths and we should be able to see that. And so, we’ve been eager to see one of these changes in one of these dips of the star so we can take some spectra.”

It’s difficult to predict when and how long a dimming event would occur, which is why astronomers make it a point to schedule professional-grade telescope observations weeks or months in advance.

“We need to have a network of people around the world that are ready to jump on [and observe it],” Wright said. “Fortunately, Tabby’s star is not too faint and so there are a lot of observers and telescopes … that have graciously agreed to take some time out of their science to grab a spectrum for us [tonight].”

Astronomers are still baffled by Tabby star’s behavior. As established, no star has been detected to exhibit such behavior. Even the most conservative assumptions seem unlikely on account of current technologies and our limited undertanding of the universe. As previously reported by The Atlantic, the star’s brightness has dipped by more than 20 percent. To get an idea of how significant that is, consider the fact that Jupiter blocking the sun could cause it to dip by only two percent. Picturing a structure massive enough to cause a dimming behavior of such scale stretches the limits of the imagination, which is why it’s not so surprising to see claims that it was caused by an alien megastructure. As such, UFO hunters are having a field day with this.

Of course, the chances that we’re looking at a construction project being undertaken by aliens from outer space — a UFO in space, so to speak — are pretty slim given the limited data our scientists have at this point. Ironically, it’s the explanation that makes the most sense. Even scientists, as beholden as they are to the scientific method, are excited about the possibility that they are out there.

Mars-SkullNASA*UFOSD

An alleged skull found on the surface of Mars by UFO hunter Scott C Waring.

Scott C Waring has spent the last seven years reporting alleged UFO sightings every 24 hours on his website ufosightingsdaily.com.It had grown to become one of the most well-known UFO websites in the world, with its reports regularly followed up by media across the globe.Mr Waring also published the results of his own “research” on the website, which involved spending hours looking through images placed online by NASA of the Martian surface looking for signs of alien life.

The conspiracist produced several reports claiming to have found creatures which resembled animal species on Earth, including a giant mouse, baboons, a bear, and crabs.

He also claimed to have found fossils and skeletal remains of an ancient humanoid civilisation he claimed once inhabited the Red Planet.

But Mr Waring, who had posted each day this month, suddenly stopped on Friday, releasing his final post.

He wrote: “My last post. Thanks for the seven years of support. We have accomplished a lot together.”

He said he started the blog as a place to defend UFO witnesses, who often faced ridicule.”Now that happens less,” he added.He said that pressure from readers of his website had pressured NASA into axing a decision to stop a live feed camera on the International Space Station – which was another source on many of the UFO sightings on the website.

He said: “The cams are still up, years later.

“We posted some amazing sightings and discoveries along those seven years and we have made it to major news sites like CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox News and even New Scientist which said I was making a new area of science.”

But after saying ridicule against UFO hunters was less frequent now, he appeared to blame it for his own decision to quit.

This is serious stuff that has depths that even I can’t fathom. It deservers serious thought and research, not contempt and ridicule.

Scott C Waring

He said: “I think it’s changed. It was educational before, it was enlightening before, it was even comforting somehow knowing the truth, but it seems to have taken a turn as entertainment.”That was never my intention. This is serious stuff that has depths that even I can’t fathom. It deservers serious thought and research, not contempt and ridicule.”His departure has had mixed reviews among other UFO buffs.

Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, told Express.co.uk: “I think he was genuinely trying to find and share UFO sightings and anomalies captured by the cameras of the International Space Station and other space vehicles, but the sheer quantity of his ‘discoveries’ undermined their quality.

“This has led to criticism and inevitably ridicule, and the sad fact is that the subject relies on sensation and entertainment rather than searching for genuine evidence or data.

“I think Scott, like many others who become involved with the UFO subject, got obsessed with seeing evidence of UFOs and aliens everywhere.

“How many people really believe his photographic evidence that everything from massive skyscrapers to squirrels exist on the surface of Mars.

“Ninety-nine percent of his site was wishful thinking, yet you can’t help but be amazed by his imagination and enthusiasm.”Scott Brando, who runs the hoax-busting website ufoofinterest.org was pleased to see Mr Waring stop.But, even he said there was an air of mystery about the sudden decision.

He said: “Perhaps he has made a serious mistake and must disappear for a while?

“Or perhaps it’s just a break or to test the reactions of his followers.

“But if this statement is true, the UFO Community will be better without him.”

Louise Lench from UFO Newshub had this to say

I find it bizarre that a man who has spent so many years searching for and revealing the truth would suddenly just stop. This is nonsensical and goes against the very core of what Scott believed in. I believe this was not a choice that was made by him. Someone, somewhere has instigated this.

Several people answered a call for true stories about being stolen away by extraterrestrials on social media site Reddit.

There is a theme among the responses of weird experiences on camping trips or in the comfort of their own bedrooms.

They recall time having skipped forward or suddenly waking not remembering what had just occurred.

WEIRD: Some of the alien abduction experiences are very eerie

One spoke of an eerie experience when he was a nine-year-old when he suddenly became “paralysed” in his bed.

He said: “All of a sudden this blue light shines through my bedroom window.

“I see my covers fall off to the floor as I get lifted through the window.

“I remember bits and pieces of being on a table in a room as other children are being examined too.”

More than 40,000 Americans have taken out insurance against being abducted by aliens.
The Reddit user says he saw an alien who looked like a “Praying Mantis” insect.

He had trouble walking before the incident and since then has had no problem – and he has three mysterious needle marks on his legs.

Another said his father-in-law was on a camping trip in the Northern Appalachians, north-east US, when he and the group suddenly blacked out.

According to these celebrities, aliens and UFOs are among us.

“The extraterrestrials seemed genuinely curious about humans”

He then woke to find something was amiss.

The lad wrote: “They woke up about 10 yards away from their original site, in the exact formation that they had set up camp, but all of the little stuff was in the same spot.

“He still refuses to go hiking on that trail.”

And in an especially weird post, a man was convinced he encountered aliens he could speak to with his mind.

He said: “Nothing invasive was ever done and the extraterrestrials seemed genuinely curious about humans.

“More often it is just an interview via telepathy about how I am feeling and how things are going.”

Just six months ago he had another visit, saying: “One even seemed fascinated with one of my dogs.

“But I sort of thought how angry and hurt I would be if anything happened to my dog and he backed away.”

If aliens are this polite abduction doesn’t seem so bad after all.

Thousands of UFO and ET believers worldwide claim that multiple objective evidence supporting Romanek’s alien contact claims have emerged over the years since he first came out to share the details of his extraterrestrial (ET) contact experiences.

Romanek claims to have had many UFO and alien contact experiences. He claims that he has been abducted by ETs on multiple occasions in the past. Romanek has shared his alleged alien abduction experiences over the years through published books, including Messages: The World’s Most Documented Extraterrestrial Contact Story (2009), The Orion Regressions (2011), and Answers (2012).

He has made multiple appearances on TV and radio shows, published articles on magazines and blogs, and delivered speeches at UFO meetings organized by major UFO disclosure organizations, including the International UFO Congress (IUC).

Romanek starred in a 2013 film, Extraordinary: The Stan Romanek Story. The film, directed by Jon Sumple, traces Stan’s experience of UFO abductions and encounters with ETs. It delves into the subject of alleged government cover ups of the truth about alien life. The film claims to go beyond telling the story of Romanek’s extraordinary UFO abduction experiences. It invites viewers to share in his experience from the first-person perspective and explores how his ET contact experiences that spanned more than a decade transformed him entirely.

According to the producers of the film, the goal was not to prove that UFOs and ETs existm, but to bring viewers to ask themselves questions and contemplate the mind-boggling implications if it turns out that Romanek’s claims are true.

According to Romanek, his first alien contact experience occurred in 2000. He reported mysterious wounds on his body following multiple abduction experiences. He found that the strange wounds and markings glowed mysteriously when exposed to black light. He claims he has engaged in telepathic communication with aliens and that he communicated with his alien abductees using a Ghost Box, a device that some claim can be used to communicate with the dead or with beings in other reality dimensions.

According to Romanek, aliens visited his home several times and on a number of occasions, an alien UFO hovered in the air over his car while traveling considerable distances.

Romanek claims a bizarre incident in 2003 when he woke up to find that he was wearing ladies’ clothing he had never seen before. He claimed he was abducted during the time he was asleep or unconscious and that the aliens that abducted him returned him to his house in different clothing.

Some UFO and alien enthusiasts speculated that aliens might have confused men’s clothing with women’s and that after conducting examinations on him the aliens accidentally dressed him up in clothing from female abductees. Romanek later appeared to support the speculation when he announced that he suspected that the ladies’ clothing belonged to Betty Hill, another famous alien abductee who reported being abducted by aliens in 1961.

Romanek has attempted to back up his alleged alien contact experiences by the testimonies of independent witnesses, physical evidence, such as wounds and markings on his body, images and videos of the alleged mysterious ET phenomena.

His case was included in The World’s Best UFO Cases by Dwight Connely, editor of MUFON UFO Journal. When he appeared on ABC Primetime in 2009, Romanek was placed under hypnosis by Dr. R. Leo Sprinkle, a psychologist and authority in alien abduction cases. While under hypnosis, Romanek wrote a mathematical formula that was thought to have been beyond his knowledge of mathematics.

Romanek claims that he has been harassed by government agents because of his UFO and ET disclosure activities over the years. He also alleges that he has been the target of a disinformation campaign waged by government agencies working to cover up the truth about ET life and UFOs visiting Earth.

In fact, according to NASA, the “car-sized” asteroid, designated 2017 GM, “whipped” by Earth at a negligible (relatively speaking) 10,100 miles. As frightening as the thought might be that an asteroid came so close to Earth, it should be noted that the hurtling space rock was discovered only the day before.

Scientists at the Mount Lemmon Survey in Arizona were the first to spot asteroid 2017 GM on April 3, according to Space. Astronomers at the Virtual Telescope Project and Tengara Observatories (also in Arizona) were able to visually capture the speeding 12-foot space rock, photographing it as it zipped by at 11.5 miles per second (41,400 miles per hour). The photo was taken just before the asteroid reached its closest point to Earth.

NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) tracked the asteroid and determined that it has a wide-ranging orbit and passed by Earth on its last go-round in 1961 — but at a far greater distance, some 93 Lunar Distances (LD units, the distance between the Earth and Moon, are measured at 239,228 miles, or 385,000 kilometers), which it roughly 22.25 million miles (36.2 million kilometers) away. The JPL projections contend that the asteroid then traveled way out into the Solar System before returning to inner planets territory, where it flew past the orbits of Mars and Venus a year apart (2013 and 2014, respectively) before enjoying its near-miss fly-by of Earth.

It is unclear if asteroid 2017 GM was bestowed its name as an inside joke by astronomers due to its size or if the “car-sized” description was added by a witty reporter to correspond with the “GM” — a common shortening of the title of the automotive giant General Motors, or, as is true in some cases, the compound adjective appeared in the Space story by coincidence.

According to the JPL, asteroid 2017 GM is the 15th Near-Earth Object (NEO) to pass by just this month. To get an idea of just how many asteroids make passes by our planet, a look at the Near-Earth Object Program’s list of “Upcoming Close Approaches To Earth” indicates that nearly four dozen asteroids will pass by between April 7 through April 21. A Near-Earth Object is defined as any small Solar System object that passes within 1.3 Astronomical Units (an AU is equal to about 93 million miles, or 150 million kilometers) of the Sun. The Minor Planet Center, as part of the International Astronomical Union, is operated by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory at Harvard University and tracks over 15,000 NEOs, adding about 30 new NEOs to their list every week.

Asteroid 2017 GM is the closest near-miss NEO to buzz Earth since March, when asteroid 2017 EA breached the satellite cordon orbiting Earth and came to within 9,000 miles (14,500 kilometers) of the planet. That space rock was only 10 feet in diameter.

The actual danger posed by asteroids the size of 2017 GM and 2017 EA is determined by velocity, trajectory, and composition of the object. Most asteroids that enter Earth’s atmosphere are of the smaller variety and tend to burn up as they pass through. Some, being partially composed of denser materials (like iron, for instance), will at times reach the Earth as an impactor, a meteorite, but usually are not large enough (or impact in non-populated areas of the planet) to cause anything but minor damage.

The Chelyabinsk meteor that scorched the skies over Russia in February 2013 was determined to be an object roughly 20 to 30 meters (65-100 feet) in diameter. As it burned away in the upper atmosphere, it detonated with the force of approximately 30 Hiroshima atomic bombs, producing an airburst shockwave that damaged thousands of buildings and sent over a thousand people to the hospital.

Most, including the undetected objects, fly harmlessly by or are small enough to burn up upon entry into the Earth’s atmosphere. [Image by Vadim Sadovski/Shutterstock]

The Chelyabinsk meteor surprised the world. Unlike 2017 GM or 2017 EA, where there was at least a few hours of advance notice, that asteroid flew undetected from the direction of the Sun.

HOUSTON – In The X-Files and countless other paranormal shows, whenever a a UFO is about to get you — hovering over your car or house — the first symptom is that the radio goes haywire, and stations you were once receiving just fine start to fuzz-out in a static melee. This is typically followed by various electronics flashing in and out, before total failure and inevitable blue-light shaft from above and abduction. Thankfully, that’s fiction. (We hope!)

This morning however, many of us experienced just that — well, minus the extraterrestrial part, and nothing shorted out. FM radio signals on the lower end (87FM to 93FM) and the higher end (104FM-108FM) were hard to listen to and it was kind of creepy for those (like me) groomed in Sci-Fi. TV viewers using an antenna had trouble pulling in a reliable signal from normally, “clear” stations. This effect seemed to happen most between about 1am and 5am.

It was no fault of your TV or radio — or the transmitters — and it likely wasn’t aliens. It was an observed and measurable phenomena called, “temperature inversion.” Normally it’s hotter at the ground that in the sky. Many times however, on clear nights, the ground cools faster than the air high above. This creates an inverted temperature profile, where it’s actually warmer above the ground then at the surface.

That setup traps pollution making for poor air quality, and if strong enough, can bounce radio signals due to density changes. Cool air has a higher density than warm air, so as signals were broadcast from the tops of towers in the warm area, the transmissions would, “bounce off” of the cooler air below and go back out to the sky. Short-wave radio and HAM enthusiasts can tell you under these special conditions you can actually transmit much farther than normal, and receive signals from far-away continents you wouldn’t normally be able. But for local viewers and listeners, it’s not a, “good thing” because it makes it hard, if not impossible, to get your channels.

Yes, while they may have been able to pick up Houston TV signals in Corpus Christi or Dallas early this morning, those of us in Katy, The Woodlands and League City may have struggled. At time time of this event, temperatures were in the 60s at the top of the tower, while 1,500 feet below, in the cooler 50s. The signal could not make it to the surface, and instead was ducted over the horizon to far away places before finally reaching the ground. (Sometimes those far-away cities experience interruption too even if they aren’t in an inversion, because our signal may reach them when it normally doesn’t. If we’re on the same or similar frequency, the channels merge and a messy signal results.)

Next time you have trouble receiving a radio signal on a clear night, it’s most likely not a flying saucer hovering over your car or home, but instead it’s just the weather. Then again, most astrophysicists and astronomy buffs will tell you that it is statistically highly likely, if not a guarantee, that we are not the only ‘intelligent’ life in the galaxy. (Of course, whether ‘they’ are visiting us or not is up for debate.) So, I should rephrase and say that weather is, “most likely” the cause of your signal’s interference.

According to USA Today, a comet named 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák is the reason April Fool’s Day comet is currently trending. Today – on April Fool’s Day – this comet, which was first discovered back in 1858, will make its closest pass by the Earth on record.

Earth Sky notes there is no reason to fear the April Fool’s comet as it will still be a great distance from planet earth. The April Fool’s comet will pass by the Earth at a safe distance of roughly 13.2 million miles. By comparison, this is 50 times the distance the moon is from planet Earth.

Earth Sky noted that amateur astronomers with small telescopes would have been able to get a sneak peak of 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák days before April Fool’s Day when the comet actually passes by the Earth. Earth Sky speculates that tons of amateur astronomers will be watching the comet as it passes by tonight. People can also catch a glimpse of the comet days after it passes by the Earth before it disappears into space.

According to USA Today, 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák – which has been coined as the April Fool’s comet – will be flying across the far northern sky. This means stargazers in the Northern Hemisphere of Earth will be able to watch the comet for most of the night. At roughly 9 p.m. EST, the April Fool’s Day comet should be near the handle of the Big Dipper.

Based on National Weather Service predictions clouds might make it difficult for most of the Northeast, the Pacific Northwest, and the central Plains to see the comet tonight. The sky should be nice and clear for everyone else.

According to Science Alert, the April Fool’s comet isn’t a very large comet. In fact, it is less than a mile in diameter and it isn’t possible for you to see it with a naked eye. This means only those with a telescope pointed at the sky are going to be able to see the 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák tonight.

“Usually it appears in the night sky as a diffuse blob of light. Good binoculars or small telescopes will be needed to pick it out, as well as a dark, clear, moonless night.”

Those who have binoculars or a telescope are fortunate enough that the moon will be a thin crescent tonight. This will prevent the moon from hindering anyone’s ability to watch the comet as it flies by the Earth.

For those who don’t have a telescope or pair of binoculars, there are live comet cams which will be tracking the comet as it passes by the Earth. An astronomy website called Slooh will be tracking the comet via live cam with their telescopes located at the Canary Islands.

When comets are discovered, they are named after the individual who discovered them. 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák is unique in the fact that it carries the name of three different individuals who discovered it in 1858, 1907, and 1951. It was not until 1951 – when it was discovered for the third time – that astronomers realized it was the same comet. This particular comet belongs to a group of comets which are referred to as “Jupiter comets.”

“These are comets that have been captured by the gravity of Jupiter, forcing them in an orbit that takes them between the sun and the gas giant.”

The 41P/Tuttle-Giacobini-Kresák passes by the earth every 5 and a half years. If you don’t get the opportunity to see what is being coined this year as the April Fool’s Day comet this year, there’s always 2023.

Did you think the April Fool’s Day comet was just a joke? Are you going to be stargazing tonight or watching from the live cams online?

Clark McClelland claims to have observed the eight to nine-feet tall being in an astronaut’s suit in the bay of the shuttle.The story, which has emerged on paranormal websites and YouTube, is true he said, giving a testimony about the supposed sighting in a vide for YouTube channel Paranormal Crucible.The channel produced mock-up video of the oversized “alien entity” interacting with NASA astronauts in the bay.

Mr McClelland claims he was monitoring the shuttle from the Kennedy Space Centre in Cape Canaveral, Florida, at the time of the sighting in 1991.

The Crop Circles are often believed to be created by aliens, as there is no proper explanation behind this phenomenon.

Mr McClelland described while monitoring an unspecified mission from the space centre’s launch control centre on a 27-inch video screen, he saw the “alien” standing upright on two legs in the space shuttle payload bay, interacting with the two tethered US astronauts.He said he watched it for one minute and seven seconds.He says on another occasion he also saw a UFO at the rear of the shuttle.

He has detailed the experiences on his website www.stargate-chronicles.com, where he also claims to have been involved in 800-plus NASA operations, including the Apollo missions, the launching of the International Space Station and the space shuttle programme.

The website includes a picture labelled as him with Judy Resnick, the second ever US female astronaut who died in the 1986 Challenger space shuttle disaster alongside six others.

Paranormal Crucible mocked up the alleged 9-foot alien encounter in its video.

Aliens CREATED GOD… and now they want him back – shock claim

I know an ET and alien craft when I see them. Aliens are here on Earth, they walk among us. They may have been implanted into our various Earth governments

Clark McClelland

Some other UFO hunters describe his story as being some of the “most conclusive” evidence for allegations that aliens exist and have visited Earth, but that there is a global government cover-up to keep the truth from us.In one video he said: “I know an ET and alien craft when I see them. Aliens are here on Earth, they walk among us. They may have been implanted into our various Earth governments.”Mr McClelland’s supporters say the US space agency has never refuted his story.

But a sceptic posted on a forum on the Abovetopsecret.com site which looks at “alternative topics” and conspiracy theories, questioning the validity of his claims.

He asked: “Why is it if you google his name it only comes up on UFO websites, or postings in forums where the topic of the post was UFOs? There are no mentions of him on NASA’s site.”
