“Blood Moon Apocalypse” Survival Stories Sought
by drfuture2013
The demise of humanity with the last Jewish Feast/”Blood Moon” coincidence has been trumpeted (excuse the pun) loudly and across the vast swath of Christian media and para-church organizations – not only the World Net Dailys, Skywatch TVs and similar outlets, but even Anne Graham Lotz’s (Billy Graham’s daughter) warning of an “Emergency for Jerusalem” that not only was concerned for our dear friend of Christians, the atheist Benjamin Netanyahu (while no mention of his Jewish sorcerer friend Rabbi Kaduri), but also of “The fourth blood moon on September 28 considered by rabbis to be an omen for Israel that will also be a super moon seen over Jerusalem” and “The end of the Jewish Shemitah Year on September 13 and the beginning of the Jubilee Year on September 28—both very significant in Biblical prophecy” (the Bible verses that confirm this “significance” in BIble prophecy were not listed). Folks even in my own local church were hailing this as “the beginning of the end”, and appealing to people to come here a rabbi talk about the Jewish magical wisdom that could better inform Holy Spirit-filled Christians on what is “really going on”.
Having Christ-denying Jewish rabbis inform Christians on the “deeper things” of God is particularly chic these days, and it is fueled by the current Bible prophecy racket that misuses legitimate Bible prophecy to serve the interests of Cold War, tribalistic, Zionist political demogogues, under a veneer of prophetic “wisdom”, which is lapped up by the uninformed or usually xenophobic (mostly older) Christian masses. These “rabbis” dish out mystical stuff that is as much Talmud and Jewish magical legends as much as it is scripture, which is perfectly normal in an Orthodox religious heritage; however, not long ago, Christians knew better than to seek deeper, murky spiritual prophetic insight from those who could not even acknowledge who was the Messiah their prophets spoke of, or those Messianic rabbinic variants who feel that there is a religious superiority and elitism to going back and resubmitting to the yoke of Mosiac Law, prompting even our Jewish Apostle Peter to say ” Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?” (Acts 15:10).
I have found the World Net Daily’s and other outlets pushing this latest “Chiken Little”, sky-is-falling “medicine show” to huckster books and DVDs to be not-surprisingly quiet on the subject today (I guess like other prophetic deadlines they hailed that came and went), although Skywatch is still pushing John Hagee’s warning from yesterday that it is the end of the world.
So, for the lack of reporting this morning from our para-church organizations and Christian media outlets on the subject, I would like to encourage you, loyal blog readers, to contribute your own “blood moon survival stories” here in the comments sections to this post. And please feel free to grossly embellish – just like our highly-paid para-church ministry national leaders, who use their imagination to entertain us. Extra points if you can scapegoat some minority, foreign people group or religion as the cause of your suffering in these days – American Christians love paranoia and demogoguery these days.
I will remember these “blood moons” the next time these Christian groups try to sign me up for one of these propaganda, Potemkin Village “Israel Tours” – designed to make money for the ministries, and promote secular Israel’s political agenda within wealthy America through their returning gulible Christian citizens. The next time they ask me to go, I want to ask them if they will be doing something useful there like preaching the Gospel of Jesus at the Wailing Wall, like our dear Apostles did in Acts; if they don’t (and they won’t), then they can count me out.
If the world comes totally unglued in the next month or two, I guess I’ll have to eat my hat – but it still may not be because of some regularly-scheduled astronomical event. The stock market usually has a big correction every few years in October. I would not be surprised to see Israel unilaterally attack Iran and try to hide behind the US to start some alliance-fueled World War III, just like how the first World War was started. When people of various cultures around the world start talking to each other and making peaceful amends, it makes Israel very nervous.
Any of you can follow your favorite bearded, yamulke and prayer shawl-sporting rabbi out there for “deeper knowledge”, but I think I’ll stick with my Rabbi Jesus, who had a word for the other rabbis as to their ability to discern prophetic signs in the sky:
“The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, [It will be] fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, [It will be] foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O [ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not [discern] the signs of the times?” (Matt. 16:1-3)
My survival story is that I told other Christians it was nonsense and some actually did listen to me.
Thank you, Dr.Future, for having the nerve to post this article.

When I went out to look at the blood moon, it was real cold outside, something like 40 degrees. I wanted to watch more but it was too cold. I went back out later but the eclipse was over. The moon, tho, was even more incredible, glowing so bright like a sun. I could have done some yard work that night, it was so bright. But I didn’t. See, I don’t even do yard work when it’s nice and 70 degrees, let alone near freezing.
But the good news, since we’ve had our first frost, we can pick our apples. If I can force myself to, that is, since that’s technically yard work as well.
That said, as a family we do celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles instead of Christmas, since we believe that Jesus most likely was born during this feast (or possible one of the other Fall feasts). I’ve noticed when we don’t have the “trappings” and “trimmings” of the traditional Christmas, we can really focus on Jesus and all the Biblical passages about his birth and the prophecies concerning his first coming. And then focus also on his return. We don’t try to be Jewish or follow rabbinical rules or fret about doing it right, and we don’t spend the night in our tabernacle, did I mention it’s near freezing here at night…

It was an excited day leading up to the blood moon: Our last day on earth. Finally! And we were going to miss it and thus miss the giant meteor/earthquake-splitting-the-US-in-two/end of California
A few moments before the fated, long foretold moment, I gathered my wife and oldest daughter and I rushed outside screaming, “It’s the end of the world! It’s the end of the world!”
The neighbors were sitting on their porch, drinking a cold one, enjoying the rare astronomical event. Those unsaved heathens. They would be be left behind for sure. I’ll show them!
They glanced over at me, and shook their heads. “Those crazy Christians with their end-of-the-world tracts. Thank God they ignore Jesus’ command to love their neighbor and they have nothing to do with us.”
I yelled, “You’ll all be LEFT BEHIND! You’ll see! Bwahahaa! That’s what you get for not going to church, you selfish unloving heathens! But don’t worry. In my basement, I have 3 months’ supply of food I bought in 2012. You can have it. There’s a King James Version in there too for when the gov’t confiscate all bibles. Hidden. Buried in the basement. Seek and ye shall find.”
My wife said, “Shhhh! It’s turning red. Isn’t it beautiful! God designed things so perfectly to give us such beauty.”
I said, “Shut up, Woman! Bring my shotgun. I may need it in heaven. And bring me my confederate flag, so all those black Christians in heaven know it’s all about honor and not slavey. I’ll show them!”
I then looked up and yelled, “Oh Great Pumpkin, Where are you???”
The next day, I realized it wasn’t 2015 this was going to happen, but 2016! So alas, I have to wait another year. Gives me another year to tell the neighbors how God’s wrath is going to punish them while I’m laughing in heaven.

Bro. Doug,
I am so sorry you were disappointed like the rest of us. Hopefully God will destroy those “goat nations” that Christ died for soon! You know they are “all out to get us” Christians! And don’t worry about waiting too long for it – I am sure the Relgious Right Establishment will come up with a new rabbinic astrological theory to get us to buy those survival supplies, and keep those books and DVDs flying off the shelves!
Thank you for sharing, and showing that you “get it”.
P.S. They can have my Bible when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers…

“American Christians love paranoia and demagoguery these days.”
Agreed. It seems to be getting worse.
Of course I would include in the category of Christian demagogues those who believe in the lies of the 9/11 Truth movement. Until recently, that category would have included me. One of the key factors in my conversion was a radio show on Future Quake featuring yourself and a mutual friend Robert Heid, after attending a conference in Los Angeles in the summer of 2006. Remember?
It’s all well and good to point at the specks in the eyes of dispensationalists who think the Rapture is just around the corner. But perhaps it would be better, more Christlike, of you and Robert to admit you were wrong, dead wrong, about 9/11 Truth, that the official theory of the Twin Towers’ collapse is true, and that the paranoia and lies feeding the Truth movement are foolish and evil, and should not be embraced by God-fearing Christians.

It contains many helpful articles, as well as helpful links. In particular read Mark Roberts’ essay on WTC 7 and Brent Blanchard’s essay on controlled demolition.

Good friend, why is this one issue, concerning how two buildings fell, such a big and repeated thing with you these days? Is there a bigger issue that concerns you that this incident represents?

It is true that I am a Johnny One Note on 9/11 these days, at least here and at Sycamore Three. Why?
9/11 was no small event. Believing that it was a criminal “inside job” conspiracy involving Dick Cheney or George Bush or the Mossad–absolutely changes one’s view of the world from a conventional one, supported by evidence, facts and science, to a paranoid conspiratorial worldview, supported by feelings and suspicions and coincidences not supported by evidence or facts.
I plan to write on this soon, but I haven’t yet got around to it. For now, I’m just commenting here in the background. But I feel a strong moral obligation to apologize and retract everything I’ve said or written about 9/11 for the past 9 years…on behalf of the victims, on behalf of my own credibility and most importantly–as a Christian I am to love the truth and tell the truth. Speaking evil of a ruler of your own people is serious business. (Exodus 22:28).
I believe that my belief in wacky conspiracy theories was a sin. It offends God when I spread lies and slander. I want to repent. Not only do I want to repent of it, I want to warn others not to believe in it, either, for their own sanity, credibility and spiritual safety.
If it is necessary for me to repent, it must also be necessary for you and Robert to repent, because you’ve spent much more time advocating various conspiracy theories about 9/11 than I have over the last 9 years. I don’t plan to let up anytime soon, as long as you permit me to comment.
Grace and Peace,

Bro. Ben,
Thanks for elaborating on your thoughts. I agree with you that I do not want to be spreading “lies” or “slander”. I have tried to focus on questions regarding the events of 9/11, and more importantly the aftermath with the War on Terror, with the goal of separating the “crazy conspiracy theories” with no basis in data and science from those with unanswered credible points or issues, particularly when considered from a historical perspective. Even with my professional background in fire and aircraft related mishap events, and the resultant questions concerning the events of that day have that differ from my personal experience and learning, my major concerns have never been what happened to those two buildings that day, which I think can serve as a distraction and even a tool for government (foreign or national) or other organizational disinformation and discrediting campaigns, such as have been documented in declassified FBI efforts in prior events such as the JFK assassination. The events that I have documented that occurred before and after the event are far more significant, and for any student of twentieth century history they cannot help but see the deja vu of these events as a pretext to support a world war. In support of our mutual goals of separating facts from fiction, I have tried to painstakingly document actual hard data concerning the events that undergird the War on Terror in my upcoming books, using reputable data from sources such as government declassified documents and major national newspapers of record, with almost all of the sources hot-linked so the readers can vet them themselves. Events such as these from earlier generations that similarly served as a pretext to war have been now shown to differ from the official government narrative at the time, due to declassified documents such as those disproving the Gulf of Tonkin event that justified the Vietnam War; similarly, we will not know the whole story of events concerning the War on Terror until (hopefully) a generation from now we find out more when more documents are declassified (such as the 911 Report) and memoirs from dying leaders are written.
As far a “sinning” by inquiring into and investigating the actions of our government and its leaders and vetting their official narrative, I personally believe that in our representative form of government, where we elect “representatives” to serve as our proxies, we have a duty to critique actions that are done in our name; I think the standards and requirements of justification are even higher when the stakes are so high as to result in the deaths of millions of people in the US and overseas. I believe the prophets of God performed this same function in service to God (such as Elijah with King Ahab, or Nathan with King David), and even John the Baptist with King Herod. Christians have a duty to make sure innocent parties are not victim to unjustified acts or reprisal. This is how I believe I show my patriotism and good citizenship; if the goal is only to be a pep-rally for what our national leaders day concerning others, then our circumstances are not much better than in 1930s Nazi Germany. Because of this, I see that whistleblowers, such as Daniel Ellsberg with the Pentagon Papers, or the professors who obtained the FBI files proving the COINTELLPRO program (as well as those exposing Watergate and Iran Contra), are “American heroes” and patriots in terms of their zeal to see that America acts with justice and truth, even though they were considered the “crazy conspiracy theorists” of their day.
Closing this discussion with a speculation, the only rationale I can see for zealously trying to close any such inquiries into the motives of our government and others is to prevent the release of any data that might dampen the zeal in public opinion for waging a global “holy war” against those of another religion or culture. If one saw these people as “predestined” to damnation as a “depraved” and “unelect” people, then I might understand the goal to eliminate any activities that might complicate the goal of accomplishing this.
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, Bro. Ben.

Dr. Future I hope you are recovered and feeling well my friend.
This is what happened to me that auspicious night.
The weatherman had pointed out the best viewing times for the eclipse. Portions of my family had discussed it as I BBQ’d for 50 the previous night. “Super Moon!” they were saying. The teachers in the family had done some astronomy lessons that week with their students and all made plans to view the special event.
That night as the earths shadow crept steadily across the moon, it hit me! The urgency of the moment struck me like a lightning bolt from the heavens…. Dear Lord no!……… I had forgotten to take out the trash.
Hurriedly I grabbed the recycle and trash containers and brought them to the end of the driveway. Looking up, I could see the cloudy edge of a shadow on the moon. I spent a few seconds looking at it as the kids came out to see what I was looking at.
I explained the phenomena to them. They spent a few seconds in deep thought with my youngest asking… “Dad, can we have one more oatmeal chocolate chip cookie before we have to go to bed? “Sure pal, but just one.”
It was quite a night. Disaster was averted and children went to bed happy.

Well Doc…… As you said, I probably wouldn’t remember. All in all a pretty peaceful night. Then again, my prayer life involves asking God for protection for me and my family. So far so good.
All the joking aside. God told us not to worry. The birds have a place to sleep. We eat……every day…… We are fortunate to be able to fill our time writing replies to blogs, talking to our children and not not worrying about bombs being dropped on them. Yes, there are bad things that can and will happen to some. Not a whole lot you can do about it.
911 and the JFK will be explained when they need a revolt or a popular uprising. Potato chip bags will NEVER have more chips than air and building a do-it-yourself piece of furniture will never take less than 6 hours to construct.
Point is, blood moons don’t give me all that much angst and I am really glad us Jesus boys can talk about this stuff without fear of imprisonment…….for now. Thanks for the forum.
