The events in the Middle East are breath-taking as they fulfil Biblical
Prophecy before our
boggled eyes! A recent fax from a relative who is an architect has
added to the awe - a
1,000 step structure is being built in Israel, which has echoes of
the Tower of Babel? Of
course the Israelis would not see it as such, but the name given in
the
E-mail for the “peace” monument is highly descriptive! The aim
of the union of all nations
which is being thrust upon the world at this time is precisely the
same as the Tower of
Babel in the plain of Shinar (Genesis 11). The Tower of
Babel represents the first United
Nations in the world. Note that the first UN wanted to construct
a building that would
“reach unto heaven” (Gen.11:4). The Jews in Israel are getting ready
to enter a time of
extreme apostasy, just as Jesus Christ said they would:
“I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall
come in
his own name, him ye will receive.“(John 5:54).

ISRAEL
Italian architect, Massimiliano Fuksas, is finalising work on an amazing
double commission.
He has designed a Peace Centre in Jerusalem, which is backed by Israel's
ex President
Simon Peres, and a monument in Bethlehem sponsored by
Palestine President Yassir
Arafat. Peres and Arafat are working directly with Fuksas. He was the
only architect
approached for the commission. Speaking to RIBAWorld Fuksas says: “Arafat
called me in
my Paris office, we had lunch and I agreed to his proposal. I like
the two peoples. I can’t
understand how they have not managed to find a peaceful solution to
their problems for so
long. Negotiations on a final settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict began last week.
The Bethlehem structure, a “STAIRCASE TO HEAVEN” of steel, limestone
and granite,
has 1,000 steps dedicated to 1,000 cities world-wide and their diverse
cultures. The
Jerusalem Centre’s facade is composed of alternating bands of translucent
glass and
concrete, intended to represent the laborious, sedimentary process
of negotiations for
peace between Israeli and Palestinian communities. (End

Massimiliano Fuksas has this address:
Piazza del Monte di Pieta, 30. Roma, Italia.
In the Architecture Expo (Castello Gardens and The Arsendale, June-November
2000)
the Images emphasis will be: LESS AESTHETICS, MORE ETHICS.
The investigators of the New Age New World Order are well aware that
the changes that
are occurring now on our planet are being pushed along on the bandwagon
of New
Religious and Ethical transformations for a New World. The NWO Earth
Charter is about
“ETHICS of peace, equity and prevention of harm.” A section of
the Earth Charter working
draft states this:
“A shared ethical framework that is inclusive and integrated is urgently
needed to
guide deliberation and decision. Therefore, together in hope, and in
solidarity with
the community of life, we affirm the following principles and pledge
ourselves to
work for their implementation through individual, institutional, and
collective
efforts.”
STEVEN C.ROCKEFELLER, EARTH ETHICS, Spring 1997:
“The expectation has been that the Earth Charter would draw on the
new
discoveries and insights of science, and the wisdom of the world’s
religions, and the
extensive world literature on GLOBAL ETHICS and the ETHICS of environment
and
development, as well as international law. It must also reflect what
has been
learned by those peoples throughout the world whose cultural practices
and belief
systems effectively promote environmental protection and sustainable
living. “
(Emphasis added).
Is it too far fetched to see this new “peace” monument in Bethlehem,
and the Peace
Centre in Jerusalem, as being important structures for the promotion
of the “peace” and
“ethics” of the New World Order? I don’t think so, in fact it would
be foolish not to see the
connection.
“But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as
a thief in the
night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then
sudden destruction cometh
upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
But ye,
brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as
a thief.”
(IThessalonians 5:1-4).
