An
Examination of Ancient Scriptures as Proof that these Might be the Final Days, or
Armageddon, as Described in the Book of Enoch and the Revelation of St. John
the Revelator.
By William Schaeffer
This paper briefly examines the possibility that the final Battle of
Armageddon has already begun. As
remarkable as it seems, the proof is right there in the Scriptures. There is no disputing the facts that the
numbers reveal.
First, we assume that it has been well established by history
that the world was created on October 23, 4004 B.C.E. See Appendix
A. We take this to mean the planet
Earth and the Entire Universe.
Secondly, In Appendix B
we see a list of Birth dates and other dates.
These numbers vary slightly between different translations of Genesis. The numbers used here are from the
traditional Hebrew Bible or Torah. We
assume that these are the accurate and truthful values; and any other values
are due to errors of translation or copying.
Next, a reading the ancient Book of Enoch reveals the curious fact
in chapter 9. It tells of God sentencing
fallen angel Azazel, or Semjaza, to Seventy Generations in prison for fomenting
an uprising against the rule of God and corrupting humankind. We assume that Azazel is another name for
Satan, or The Devil. See Appendix D for the complete text.
In that same text, it is apparent that Azazel is punished at the same
time that God sent the deluge for Noah to build the Ark. Since Noah’s three sons and their families
were on the Ark, the date must have been 1658 years after the beginning of the
Earth in 4004 B.C.E. This would be
about 2346 B.C.E.
Finally, estimating the length of a generation is a real
challenge. This is the calculation that
the prediction relies on, therefore it must be accurate. In Appendix
C we see that our best guess is sixty two years; the earliest age of
retirement in the United States of America.
Therefore, based on our calculations and providing that all our
assumptions were correct: Azazel was released from bondage of seventy
generations in 2003 C.E. If so, then both he and his minions have
returned to Earth and are fomenting a supernatural rebellion against the
rightful rule of God. It is likely that
the final Armageddon has already begun.
This could easily explain The Gulf War, 911, the Stock Market Crash,
Ebola, ISIS, MERS, Bird Flu, Crop Circles, GMO, HMO, The Housing bubble, EDM, and
the Occupy Wall Street fiasco.

Also -- start stockpiling food.
Memorize the words to your favorite songs. Buy an extra supply of paper towels and clean
socks. Remember to turn off the lights
and conserve water. It may be a dark and
stormy Winter and the next Spring season that comes – might take a long, long
time to get here.
Good Luck.

for 70 generations.
2.
How long is a generation? 100 years? 49 years? 62 years?
A
decade is 10 years – too short
A
Jubilee is 49 years -- a jubilee is not a generation!
One can register for retirement
at 62 years
A
Century is 100 years – too long
Assume
a generation is 62 years -- that sounds reasonable.

Math
0-4004+1557+100+10 = -2337 (Noah’s
son must be an adult; or
approximately 100, and his grandson
approximately 100, and his grandson
must be at least ten years old)
2015 +2337 = 4352 (Number
of years since the deluge)
62 * 70 = 4340 (Seventy
generations of 62 years)
0 – 2337 + 4340 = 2003 C.E. (2003 C.E. the year that Semjaza or
Azazel was released
out of bondage
Appendix D
The
Book of Enoch chapter 6 – 10
1 And
it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were
born unto 2 them beautiful and comely daughters.
And the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said
to one another: 'Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men 3 and beget us children.' And Semjaza,
who was their leader, said unto them: 'I fear ye will not 4 indeed agree to do this deed, and I
alone shall have to pay the penalty of a great sin.' And they all answered him
and said: 'Let us all swear an oath, and all bind ourselves by mutual
imprecations 5 not to abandon this plan but to do
this thing.' Then sware they all together and bound themselves 6 by mutual imprecations upon it. And
they were in all two hundred; who descended in the days of Jared on the summit
of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn 7 and bound themselves by mutual
imprecations upon it. And these are the names of their leaders: Samlazaz, their
leader, Araklba, Rameel, Kokablel, Tamlel, Ramlel, Danel, Ezeqeel, Baraqijal, 8 Asael, Armaros, Batarel, Ananel,
Zaqiel, Samsapeel, Satarel, Turel, Jomjael, Sariel. These are their chiefs of
tens.
1 And
all the others together with them took unto themselves wives, and each chose
for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves
with them, and they taught them charms 2 and
enchantments, and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants.
And they 3 became pregnant, and they bare great
giants, whose height was three thousand ells: Who consumed 4 all the acquisitions of men. And when
men could no longer sustain them, the giants turned against 5 them and devoured mankind. And they
began to sin against birds, and beasts, and reptiles, and 6 fish, and to devour one another's
flesh, and drink the blood. Then the earth laid accusation against the lawless
ones.
1 And
Azazel taught men to make swords, and knives, and shields, and breastplates,
and made known to them the metals of the earth and the art of working them, and
bracelets, and ornaments, and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the
eyelids, and all kinds of costly stones, and all 2 colouring tinctures. And there arose
much godlessness, and they committed fornication, and they 3 were led astray, and became corrupt in
all their ways. Semjaza taught enchantments, and root-cuttings, 'Armaros the resolving
of enchantments, Baraqijal (taught) astrology, Kokabel the constellations,
Ezeqeel the knowledge of the clouds, Araqiel the signs of the earth, Shamsiel
the signs of the sun, and Sariel the course of the moon. And as men perished,
they cried, and their cry went up to heaven . . .
1 And
then Michael, Uriel, Raphael, and Gabriel looked down from heaven and saw much
blood being 2 shed upon the earth, and all
lawlessness being wrought upon the earth. And they said one to another: 'The
earth made without inhabitant cries the voice of their cryingst up to the gates
of heaven. 3 And now to you, the holy ones of
heaven, the souls of men make their suit, saying, "Bring our cause 4 before the Most High."' And they
said to the Lord of the ages: 'Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings, and
God of the ages, the throne of Thy glory (standeth) unto all the generations of
the 5 ages, and Thy name holy and glorious
and blessed unto all the ages! Thou hast made all things, and power over all
things hast Thou: and all things are naked and open in Thy sight, and Thou
seest all 6 things, and nothing can hide itself
from Thee. Thou seest what Azazel hath done, who hath taught all
unrighteousness on earth and revealed the eternal secrets which were (preserved)
in heaven, which 7 men were striving to learn: And
Semjaza, to whom Thou hast given authority to bear rule over his associates.
And they have gone to the daughters of men upon the earth, and have slept with
the 9 women, and have defiled themselves, and
revealed to them all kinds of sins. And the women have 10 borne giants, and the whole earth has
thereby been filled with blood and unrighteousness. And now, behold, the souls
of those who have died are crying and making their suit to the gates of heaven,
and their lamentations have ascended: and cannot cease because of the lawless
deeds which are 11 wrought on the earth. And Thou knowest
all things before they come to pass, and Thou seest these things and Thou dost
suffer them, and Thou dost not say to us what we are to do to them in regard to
these.'
1 Then
said the Most High, the Holy and Great One spake, and sent Uriel to the son of
Lamech, 2 and said to him: 'Go to Noah and tell
him in my name "Hide thyself!" and reveal to him the end that is
approaching: that the whole earth will be destroyed, and a deluge is about to
come 3 upon the whole earth, and will destroy
all that is on it. And now instruct him that he may escape 4 and his seed may be preserved for all
the generations of the world.' And again the Lord said to Raphael: 'Bind Azazel
hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness: and make an opening 5 in the desert, which is in Dudael, and
cast him therein. And place upon him rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with
darkness, and let him abide there forever, and cover his face that he may 6,7 not see light. And on the day of the
great judgement he shall be cast into the fire. And heal the earth which the
angels have corrupted, and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may
heal the plague, and that all the children of men may not perish through all
the secret things that the 8 Watchers
have disclosed and have taught their sons. And the whole earth has been
corrupted 9through
the works that were taught by Azazel: to him ascribe all sin.' And to Gabriel
said the Lord: 'Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates, and against
the children of fornication: and destroy [the children of fornication and] the
children of the Watchers from amongst men [and cause them to go forth]: send them
one against the other that they may destroy each other in 10 battle: for length of days shall they
not have. And no request that they (i.e. their fathers) make of thee shall be
granted unto their fathers on their behalf; for they hope to live an eternal
life, and 11 that each one of them will live five
hundred years.' And the Lord said unto Michael: 'Go, bind Semjaza and his
associates who have united themselves with women so as to have defiled
themselves 12 with them in all their uncleanness.
And when their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction
of their beloved ones, bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of
the earth, till the day of their judgement and of their consummation, till the
judgement that is 13 for ever and ever is consummated. In
those days they shall be led off to the abyss of fire: and 14 to the torment and the prison in which
they shall be confined forever. And whosoever shall be condemned and destroyed
will from thenceforth be bound together with them to the end of all 15 generations. And destroy all the
spirits of the reprobate and the children of the Watchers, because 16 they have wronged mankind. Destroy all
wrong from the face of the earth and let every evil work come to an end: and
let the plant of righteousness and truth appear: and it shall prove a blessing;
the works of righteousness and truth' shall be planted in truth and joy for
evermore.
Appendix E
Note the wording of Chapter 10
verse 16:
“…and let the plant of
righteousness and truth appear: and it shall prove a blessing; the works of
righteousness and truth' shall be planted in truth and joy for evermore.”
It is
possible that this verse is a reference to cannabis, or Ganja, the sacred herb
of the Rastafarians in Jamaica.

F
These calculations are only best guess
approximations
Before you get TOO worried, remember that the length of a generation is
not certain. A generation of even a
year longer or shorter than our best estimate will change the result by at
least 70 years. In that case, we all
are safe by at least sixty years; and sixty years is a long time to plan
appropriately. So relax and enjoy
yourself, there is probably nothing to worry about; right now…

Note:
ReplyDelete1. Like other "researchers" I had originally thought that the banishment of Samjaza [Satan] was in 5,000 B.C.E. and a generation was 100 years. This would make the "sentence" 7,000 years and the release date at 2,000 C.E. This paper reflects a refinement of that earlier notion.
