The war of spirits

Dear Eiko,

How are you recently?

sorry i have taken time to reply.

Last week we went on a short holiday to Bali in Indonesia.it was very nice and very hot.
We ate man spicy foods and sat on the beach everyday..thats my kind of holiday haha

the weather here in Fukuoka changes alot in springtime it seems...its difficult to know what type of clothing to wear.

Anyway,im sorry that you wont be able to come to the special talk this sunday but after the talk ,i will email you the main points and scriptures so that you get the point of brother yamamotos talk.

i cant send a copy of the talk because brother yamamoto speaks from an outline only,not a script.

In your previous email to me you said that maybe somewhere in revelation it might say about when peace and security is called,then armageddon...

Well,At Revelation 16:16, is the only scriptural mention of the word "Harmageddon" or " Armageddon".

This word is often used by humans to mean nuclear holocaust or major catastrophe only.

But this word SIGNIFIES a war by GOD...its Gods war...

Not human

However, this war will be a catastrophe for enemies of God and at the time of its break out,it will cause much literal,physical harm.

The word "Armageddon" comes from Hebrew and literall means " Mountain of Megiddo".....this location was a place where decisive battles took place...thus "Armageddon" will also be a decisive war or battle in which Jehovah God will win.

Anyway, the cry of "peace and security" is mentioned at 1 thessalonians 5:1-6

I extracted one paragraph from a recent watchtower article to briefly explain the meaning behind this out cry:

17 The great tribulation will begin suddenly. Yes, “Jehovah’s day” will come unexpectedly “whenever it is that they are saying: ‘Peace and security!’” (Read 1 Thessalonians 5:2, 3.) The foretold tribulation will begin when the nations think that they are close to solving some of their big problems. The sudden destruction of “Babylon the Great,” the world empire of false religion, will catch the world by surprise. Kings and others will be amazed when judgment is executed upon Babylon the Great.—Rev. 17:1-6, 18; 18:9, 10, 15, 16, 19

Armageddon wont begin ONLY because of a peace treaty or because someone thinks peace is coming...but the scripture indicates that ,at the time just before armageddon, the world in general,political leaders, and the general public will feel optimistic and feel that world problems will almost be solved.

At our moment in time,we have not yet reached this point...its very near in the future yet we dont know the exact time or date...

we should look out for a time when people seem a little happier and thinking the world is becoming a better place..

When these events occur in addition to other bible fulfillments NOT mentioned in this email,then in the near future after this event, Armageddon will defintely come

Anyway,i hope it answered your question enough for you to get the point of the scripture.

If you have any other query or are not too sure of the meaning still or just the way i put the meaning ,please let me know..i will be at the meeting on thursday and on sunday i will write down the main points of the special talk for you and send it hopefully on Monday.

Until we next speak or communicate,have a nice evening

carlos

Hi, Carlos..

I need to work on 25th of April.

If you can send me a copy of the special talk, I feel very pleased to read it.

Bible, probably in Revelations, says the Armageddon comes when people started saying the world is under peace and security...is that correct?

Well my understanding is we need to be extremely careful when people started thinking so.
Humans nature is very belligerent, under the superficial

appeasement attitudes stupidity exists.

Once a politician misjudge the situation, the world will explode itself. ...by atomic, biological, or chemical weapons.

We need to always keep in mind that we live in such a dangerous world.

As Bible says Armageddon comes as a thief, I think it's in Revelations, too.



Sincerely yours,

Eiko

Dear Hiroshi,how are you today?

its nice and sunny outside.

it was nice to see you thursday also and have a short chat together.

The Bible has many basic and easy teachings inside it and it also many deeper more difficult teachings to understand,therefore, it does take extra effort and study to understand these deeper things, as ive personally found...we are all learning all the time, i think we will never find a time when we have stopped learning something new, whether from the Bible or from other sources.

anyway,lets keep learning ne

I wanted to send you the Title,Date,Time and Location of the coming special talk...the title is:" Real Peace and Security-When?" The speaker of this talk is Brother Shinichi Yamamoto. The date of the talk is Sunday 25th April 2010 at 4:30pm at Hara kingdom hall...thats the usual kingdom hall that we normally meet.

The talk is special because it answers a question that many have been trying to find answers for for many centuries now, but have had not had answered by any other group, religion .
The Talk as usual is Scriptural,it is from the Bible and this same talk will be given all over the world on the same day in over 100,000 kingdom halls, to more than 7 million people ,in 236 Lands around the earth.

If you can make time to come,im sure you will benefit from this talk..i hope it will be possible.

Anyway,i look forward to seeing and talking to you again soon.

Carlos
