The late archeologist, Ron Wyatt, made a number of interesting finds in the Land of the Bible. Back in the early 80's he actually found a cave beneath Mount Moriah (Skull Hill) after being led to the site by the Holy Spirit to examine the vicinity and he stumbled on a fairly large cave where he found an interesting looking object. Upon closer examination, he realized that he might have stumbled upon an object that was made out of solid gold and on which he found hardened bloodstains.
He then traced these stains up a crack in the ceiling of the cave and discovered above that stood a depression in the ground on top of the mountain. He further found the depression to be on a raised slope above two others and which he believed was the place where the cross on which Christ was crucified stood.

I will leave you to examine this video of one scientist who spoke with the late archeologist at first hand as he explained what the discovery was all about. My apologies that I cannot link the video directly here, so you will need to copy the URL as I have given it and paste it to enable you to watch the video.

Interesting Discoveries.
It has been a month since my last post. A lot of things had taken place and I am excited especially since I came across this article a friend shared with my on my Facebook. The sharing of information is related to a rather interesting discovery way back in the late Eighties but not many people took notice of it until recently. In this post, I want to set the stage for the next couple more posts when I will give you links to some videos posted on YouTube.
The sharing begins... (Ron Wyatt is a fortune hunter but turned into an amateur archeologist)
Henry Gruver tells about Ron Wyatt

May 29 2008 10:20AM
Dear friends:
The other day I promised to share what Henry Gruver says about the late Ron Wyatt's claimed discovery of the Ark of the Covenant hidden beneath Golgotha. It is in Gruver's book, "The Rebirth of Judah and the Glorious Church." You can order a copy by calling 712-647-3104.
By way of review, Ron Wyatt claimed that he found the Ark while digging beneath the hillside where Jesus was crucified. Below the location of the cross, he claimed, is a crack in the rock structure through which Jesus' blood seeped, and blood was found on the Mercy Seat of the Ark below, where it had dripped. Blood tests reportedly show the blood to be a person without a human father, which of course would have been the virgin-born Jesus, the Lamb of God.
The below is from Henry Gruver's book, pages 31-34:
Gruver tells about meeting Wyatt in 1989, when Wyatt said, "Henry, the Lord has told me I am allowed to tell you something."
He proceeded to share about how he first discovered the location when looking for gold coins with a detector. "The detector suddenly peaked out. He realized there was a tremendous presence of gold down there and foretold much more than coins…. Sometime later he broke into a chamber where he found, among other related things, a golden table, a seven-tiered candlestick made of one beaten piece of gold, and a sarcophagus (a stone burial cask) with a crack in the top of it. Right above the cask was what appeared to be a crack that proved to be the continuation of the crack to the left of the center cross-hole. (He had previously described this hole found where Jesus' cross had sat.) As straight as a plumb line, he found the crack continued down until it positioned directly above the crack in the sarcophagus. (He has on video the samples that appeared to be blood that he had scraped from above and scraped from the top of the sarcophagus by the crack).
"He submitted the discolored material to six different laboratories, the first one being in Jerusalem. It came back testing as human blood. However, it also came back as blood that had never been seen before. It had chromosomes that gave proof of an earthly mother, and that the blood was the blood of a son; but no chromosome giving proof of an earthly father."
Gruver goes on to explain, "Ron Wyatt and I were with Demon Shakarian, founder of the Full Gospel Businessman's Fellowship, Int'l. in Phoenix, Arizona. I sat right next to a document specialist who had been called by the organization, from Los Angeles, California, to prove the validity of Ron's laboratory test certificates -- including the document concerning the blood. The documents all included the seals of the laboratories that did the testing. After careful examination, the specialist verified that the documents were indeed authentic….. "
Ron further explained that he found the blood directly under the center cross-hole in the archeological dig. He also found it to be on top of the sarcophagus, which held the Ark of the Covenant.
(Skipping 2-3 paragraphs…)
Henry Gruver continues:
"In 1997, Israeli officials sent in six men to go into the chamber with flashlights and two-way radios, in order to be able to move the Ark of the Covenant and the Table of Shewbread and the rest of the furnishings within the chamber. All six of them were stricken dead. All six of them died instantly of a massive stroke. It was reported in brief news items in newspapers all across America. They simply reported that outside the old city walls of Jerusalem, six men died in a chamber containing artifacts of great antiquity. The Jerusalem officials were afraid to go into the chamber after they lost radio contact with the men. They called Ron, in America, asking him to come over and check it out. He agreed and they made immediate arrangements for him to fly in to Israel.
"He told me later that that when he came out of the tunnel to the chamber to tell the officials that all six of the men were dead in one heap inside the tunnel, some of the officials were trembling so badly that they had to sit down. I think they were fearful that Almighty God was going to strike them with lightning. They had wanted to move those furnishings. God said, 'No, you're not! You may have paid the soldiers off once to say that someone stole Jesus' body, but you are not going to get by with this one.'

Life Goes On - Have a Confident Expectation of Good
Some people have been going about trying to read every event as further proof of the End of the World and I am not disputing any of them. These events are indeed signs of the End and I do not believe anyone in their right mind would deny that.
However, to interpret everything on a specific timeline and try to fix a date would not be the right path. The scriptures tell us that the Lord IS coming back for His own and further cautions us that only the Father knows the exact timing even though there are positive hints in His modus operandi. But then again, we must remember that God, being the Creator, has His own timetable and He does not need to work on specific modes like humans. Bear in mind, He is the one who created time and He Himself lives OUTSIDE of time and so I would encourage you not to place too much emphasis on a specific day or hour and place all your eggs into one basket, stake your reputation and efforts solely on that chosen day and time and then when it does not happen as expected by you, you will become disillusioned.
God created each one of us unique and yet in our collective nature, we are all programmed to live under the regime of expectations - do good and you will be blessed but do bad and you will be beaten! So here I am saying that we live our lives with our expectations and when things do not turn out the way we expect them to turn out, we get disappointed. Who started all these in the first instance? is it not we ourselves for setting those expectations?
So what am I saying? Simply that we should all live our daily lives with the expectation that the Lord is coming back for His own but in the meantime, we continue to live in the confident expectation of good because of what Jesus our Lord and Savior had already accomplished for us on the cross. He paid the ultimate price so that we need not face the judgment and wrath of God. Those who have not believed in what Jesus had accomplished for him on the Cross and received Him into their hearts will always go around with the fearful expectation of judgment but not for the Believers for all the judgment had already fallen on the Body of Jesus on the Cross; what is left for us now is a life of blessings and favor because we are the righteousness of God in Christ.

Where Will You Be After All These?
An acquaintance once asked me what would happen at the End of the World, when everything comes to an end and life as we know it is no more.
Certainly it is an interesting question because it all depends on what we do in this one life that God gives each one of us and everyone knows that is the ONLY criterion that will determine our destiny. So what do you say about your own life? What have you done? In the minds of many, that would warrant lots of charitable works that they do now to earn their way into God's good books and hence they would be quick to jump on the charity bandwagon each time there is a disaster or donation drive. But by doing charity or charitable works alone will not get you into Heaven.
Certainly not by the teachings of Jesus Christ the Son of God Who came down from Heaven to live as one of us so that He can die as one of us to save us from eternal separation from God. Jesus pointed out that the ONLY way to the Father is through Him who is the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6) and He actually paid the price that was required of each one of us so that we can rightfully enter into His Kingdom simply through faith in Him. The ONLY Way to the Father is through Jesus the Son and that is by believing and accepting the fact that He paid it all by His death on the Cross and that His one Death settled the price required once and for all.
Don't get me wrong about charity. Certainly charity has its part in society and I am all for it. But charity on its own will not get us into Heaven. Charity after the Cross (that is after we have a saving knowledge of whose we are) will do wonders and strengthen our faith in God the Father.
And so my friend, where will you be after all these have passed away and you stand before God the Judge? Will He say to you, "good and faithful Child, enter into the Father's pleasure" or will He say to you, "who are you? I don't know you! Depart from my presence!" and you will be banished into Hell, the place of eternal separation from the Source of Life.
The choice is really yours to make. Choose life by believing Christ Jesus and receiving Him into your heart as your personal Lord and Savior. Time is short and running out...

The End IS very near!
I don't know whether you have been following events according to Jewish calendars as they unfold before our eyes because something spectacular is about to break out in Israel and may impact us, Believers in Christ.
A few days ago I shared a post on "Phenomena in the Cosmos" and said that there will be a number of sun eclipses as well as moon eclipses taking place in 2014 and 2015. Well, to be exact, there will be two solar eclipses and four lunar eclipses and all will take place on Jewish holidays; coincidence? no way because these are signs that the Lord uses to tell us what He is doing for His chosen people. It was said that the last time such a phenomenon happened was on June 7, 1967 and that day the City of Jerusalem came under the Israeli army. And here are the lists of eclipses -
Solar Eclipses
1. Adar 29/Nisan 1, March 20, 2015
2. Tishri 1, The Feast of Trumpets, September 13, 2015
Lunar Eclipses
1. Passover, April 15, 2014
2. The Feast of Tabernacles, October 8, 2014
3. Passover, April 4, 2015 and
4. The Feast of Tabernacles, September 28, 2015
Well, you are going to ask me what on earth I am talking about...I believe that these are the time when we will see a 'red moon' or blood moon as the Scriptures called it and these will be signs that our Lord Jesus mentioned in Matthew 24:29-31 of His Return.
And so if we take seven years off for the Tribulation, we will be left with 2008! Are we going to experience the Rapture this year? And when will this be? Are there any telltale signs that points us to 2008? At least one pastor who had been studying this for some time now had made some very interesting discoveries. Please read his findings for yourselves. http://www.fivedoves.com/letters/may2008/fmriley510.htm
What do we do if it does not happen? How are we to react? My advice to all is that we need to be prepared but that does not mean we sit idly by and wait for that day doing nothing; we are to continue to do His work (whatever He had given us to do) but with a renewed vigor knowing that the End is indeed very near!
