The following study is done in relationship to the Atomic Age. It will contain a timeline of first events as they pertain to mankind and the splitting of the atom.
The search will be to find landmarks that will help us fine tune our insight into the events that consummate the end of the present age.
We attempt this type of study so that we may be found watching all things concerning the return of our Lord.
If the attempt seems in vain to the nay sayers it is only because they do not understand Amos 3:7 Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets..
The year 1998 on the Julian calandar was covered in the other articles.It was also mentioned that the Jewish calandar though not running concurrent with the Julian has been proven to be the 2nd witness necessary to the accuracy of the time keepers.
It was also covered in another article about the atom being the throne room of Father.
It has only been in this last century of this millennium that the atom has been split.
It was in 1938 that two Germans succeded in splitting the atom.They published thier findings in January and Febuary of 1939.
The Jewish year 5698 was the year 1938. What can be noted in this date is the importance of the 98 as it pertains to the ability of mankind to split the atom.
The Jewish year 5698 (98) saw the beginning ot the atomic age. Will it be the year 1998 (98) that we will see the end of this age with the sounds of the trumpets.
Will it be in 1998 that the heavens will roll as a dark scroll as mushroom clouds expand on the earth? The likelyhood seems greater yes than no.
It is at about the age of 4 that a child is self-sustaining at least more than any of the previous 3 years.
It is also in 1945 on August 6 that the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima,Japan and again on August 9 on Nagasaki, Japan.
The first bomb was called LITTLE BOY and the second was called FAT MAN.
How appropriate the first name is. Mankind is a little boy in the atomic age of age 7 in 1945.
It was by late 1948 that the United States had 50 nuclear bombs.
The Soviet Union had their first test on August 29, 1949.
The young teenager had to take notice of the new bully on the block.
The young man and his new enemy now had the potential to destroy the whole earth with nuclear disaster.
Up to this year man had always tested the nuclear devices in the air above ground.
It is on September 19, 1957 that the first underground test took place in Nevada 100 miles outside of Las Vegas.
This underground explosion was recorded 2300 miles away.
It was also in December of 1957 that the first full scale power plant was up and running.
This story of the little boy who becomes a man seems innocent enough. It is we have all lived with this atomic age looming over us as the darkness of the shadow of death.
Two things took place at the age of 19. One was to be helpful to mankind in the form of electrical power.
The other was destructive. Until 1957 man was only hurting the air with the atomic blast and resulting forces let loose.
This says nothing of the radioactive problems resulting from all testing and usage.
Once the testing moved underground the age of innocence was lost. Mankind was lost in a fight for the largest and most deadly arsenal that could be produced.
Every subsequent test underground was and is frightenly disturbing to the other 3 of the 4 elements; air, earth, fire and water. The Little Boy that was exploded over Hiroshima was a 14kt explosion. A kt is equal to 1000 tons of TNT. This blast then was equal to 14,000 tons of TNT.
Once moved underground the explosions took on more ominus size. The first blast in the Nevada desert code named Rainier and called Operation Plumbob was of the 1.7kt size or 1700 tons of TNT.
Since then the largest known blast was of 1 megaton or 1000kt equal to 1,000,000 tons of TNT.
If 1.7kt shook the earth 2300 miles away what must a 1 magaton blast have done? 1700 tons will divide into 1,000,000 tons 588 times. 2300 miles times 588 equals 1,352,400 miles away. The earth's diamenter is 7918 miles. The distance that a shook wave felt 1,352,400 miles away would be equal to 170 times the diameter of the earth.
What must Father think of his children?
Hebrews 12:49 For our God is a consumming fire. Certainly we know that fire represents God.
The word air from Acts to the end of the Bible stands for unconsciously breathing. The word wind stands for spirit.
Air stands for the Spirit of God. It is this breath that God breathed into Adam.
Ephesians 5:26 ...the wash of water by the word.
The Word is water and Christ is the Word. We see here that Christ is by this the water.
Adam was made from the dust of the ground Gen.2:7.
The meaning for ground in Strongs Concordance (sc) is #127 adamah soil from its redness from #119 adam to show blood in the face, flush or turn rosey, dyed red or be red or made red.
The earth is mankind. Adam was made of the dust of the red earth.
Genesis 4:10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
The ground screams death cursing mankind every time an underground test is achieved.
Just as Father heard the red soil speak of Abel's death he hears it speak today.
The blood red ground used to create life also proclaims death.
We know that the death of Able was due to jealousy caused by offerings given. So we can see a chronlogical connection between ground, Adam, red earth, blood, and death.
Was Cain and Able making thier offerings as men at the age of 20? It semms likely.
What is more interesting about the color red is that this is the name of the Red Sea that the Israelites crossed on their journey to the promise land.
The Israelites were baptised in the Red Sea on the 21st of Nisan as they fled the Egyptians.
Moses sent 12 spies into the land on the 29th day of Sivan.
The spies returned on the 9th of Av 40 days later.
Do to the bad report given by the spies the children of Israel were not allowed to enter the promise land.
They had to remain in the desert a year for each day the spies were in the land or for 40 years.
All of those of 20 years of age and older were to die in the wilderness.
The Children of Israel were less than 1 year from the crossing of the Red Sea to the return of the spies and the proclaimed judgement.
They were under 20 or 19 years and 11 months and 29 days for the oldest when they were judged to spend 40 years in the wilderness.
The oldest would have been 59 when they entered the Promise Land.
The little boy that turned 19 when nuclear devices were first exploded in the red ground will be 59 up until 9/19/98 when he will become 60.
It is the United States that produced this process of pumping oil from rock all over the world.
As a side note it was President George Bush's company who first produced oil off the coast of Kuwait.
It was George Bush who protected Kuwait in 1991 with the Desert Storm.
It was also in 1991 that the 7 year Present Peace Covenant was begun.
Det.32:15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness;...
Did Jeshurun (United States) by the 2 bombs dropped on Japan prophesy its own conclusion?
The first bomb was called Little Boy.
Det.32:10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
This word apple in the Hebrew from SC #380 means the little man of the eye.
The second bomb was called Fat Man.
We just read how the little man Jeshurun would turn out. He would be a fat man.
In 1942 the United States established the Manhattan Project to study and develope it own technology on the atom.
It was in Tennesse on 59,000 acres west of Knoxville that the pure uranium 235 was produced. This uranium 235 was used to produce the platonium that produced the atomic bomb used on Japan.
Christ said in Matthew 24 that he would return as the days of Noah were . It is Genesis 9:29 were referring to the death of Noah it says, and all the days of Noah were. This verse is the 235th verse of the Bible.
The name of the facility that produced the uranium 235 was called after World War II, The Oakridge National Laboratory.
The Little Boy has come full circle and has made the trip within the 60 years. The Little Boy developed the 235 in a place named after a Clinton.
The Little Boy has now become a Fat Man and his age is the same as those who entered the Promise Land.
