ALL THE BEST FOR THE SEASON! ARE YOU READY?

December 27th 2011 23:54

First of all, please accept MW’s apology for an extended absence, as a rather nasty thing called Crohn’s disease saw fit to attack the body. Nevertheless, the Watch must continue, for we head into a most critical phase: 2012.
Rather than regale you with information that can be readily accessed on the internet regarding prophesies of the Mayans, Nostradamus and the Bible, let MW just recap a few pertinent points.
Apart from the bevy of natural disasters 2011 dealt us, there was the prediction of a certain American pastor that the world would end. Not once, but twice did his false prophesy ring out, no doubt causing untold grief to those who gave up their jobs and sold possessions in anticipation of Armageddon

Jesus and false prophecy

May 24th 2011 02:36

Obviously there was no great earthquake or Rapture on May 21. So what now? Well, for a certain American Pastor and his followers take your pick: disappointment, chagrin, re-evaluation and maybe some panic as the reality of no job or life-savings sets in. For mainstream Christianity, nothing has changed. They didn’t expect Jesus to return, and neither did MW. If one reads the prior post, they will see that the Bible unambiguously states: No-one knows the hour but the Father!
Therefore, for those dear readers following the three prophecy convergence series on MW, it’s business as usual. Noting for reference as we go, another sign-of-the-times. For the Bible also clearly states, that in the End-Times false prophets will abound.

May 21 and Christ's Return. Will It happen?

April 7th 2011 01:06

If one follows Facebook and Twitter it certainly looks like a go. Type the above header into Google's search engine and you will be presented with a plethora of sites and blogs for the affirmitive: Christ will indead be returning. Apparently around 6.00pm on May 21. A wider search will also reveal that Our Lady of Fatima has been appearing to followers and warning of dire times ahead.
The problem with all this, is that Christ himself tells us, when speaking of the End Times, that no-one will know the hour except the Father (Mt.24:36 & Mk.13:32). And the Apostle Paul tells us that Christ's return will be like a thief in the night, sudden and unexpected (1Th.5:4). Not forewarned or foretold.
In any event, the Rapture (Mt.24.31) will immediately follow Christ's return, which heralds the onset of Apocalypse. Therefore, one needs only to be vigilant, the sudden vanishing of millions of people won't go unnoticed

Attacks on Christians in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt

January 10th 2011 00:56

Not since the days of the Crusader Wars have Christians faced such targeted aggression from Muslim extremism. The Muslims who fought in the Crusades were sword wielding warriors, as were the Christian Templar knights. However, it could be argued that anyone who fights and dies for a cause is an extremist in the base sense of the word, whether they’re from the 12th or the 21st Century, with sword or with bomb.
In the 'Has the Time Come' post, MW speaks of bible prophesy, in particular the Destruction of the Temple prophesy, and the term Jesus uses: 'the beginning of sorrows.' (Matt.Ch.24:8). Given the current state of aggression against Christians, the verse that follows comes into its own particular relevance:

Has the Time Come?

November 2nd 2010 21:05

“For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes....All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matt 24:7-8 (KJV)

The words of Jesus Christ concerning the End Times have been quoted by religions and cults throughout the centuries in an attempt to validate a belief that the Apocalypse is imminent

What does it mean to be Australian?

September 22nd 2010 23:57

Although this nation is a mere 200 or so years young, the land and it’s peoples’ cultural diversity has produced unique identities, men and women who engaged the rigours of life ‘Down Under’ and made it their own. History has witnessed the cultivation of traits and the performance of deeds that were integral to the formation and propagation of Aussie nationhood ideals.

These men and women were the pioneers and settlers, the goldfield workers, the Bushmen, the Diggers and Anzacs, the larrikins and migrants. They built pubs and general stores aiding the growth of fledgling country towns; they ran stations and properties that fed a nation. On the public stage they are the Barton’s, Menzies, and Hawke’s, the women of the temperance movement, the Aboriginal activists, and our national sporting heroes. Into the late twentieth century, and the corporate and media identities like Murdoch and Packer began to stake a claim—on what it means to be an Aussie

The Meaning of Life (MOL): Nothing’s Changed—Give Life Meaning?

July 28th 2010 00:42

Most of us if not all will ask the question at some point during their time on this planet. The big question has been the subject of theological and philosophical study for millennia and pondered by some of history’s greatest minds, all searching for the answer: ‘what’s the meaning of life?

The Link Between Terrorism and Religion? (2)

June 2nd 2010 00:44

Terrorism is not new phenomenon; in fact its roots can be traced as far back as the first-century B.C.E when Jewish zealots began a program of murder to oust the Roman oppressors. Modern day terrorism is generally agreed to have begun during the French Revolution (Cronin 2002/3, p.34). What has changed leading into the twenty-first century is the emergence of the ‘jihad era’ (p.38), product of the Iranian Revolution of ’79 and defeat of the Soviets in Afghanistan.
From the killing fields of the opium-state rose Osama bin Laden, leader of Al-Qaeda and soon to be avowed enemy of the West. What makes this wealthy Saudi different from other religious extremists is the organisation he has created, not a defined central entity but a nexus of cells operating from within target countries (Gunaratna 2007, [CD]). This web-like structure, coupled with support from states sympathetic to the jihad, is what makes Al-Qaeda so difficult to counter.
In a broadcast message on October 7 after the 9/11 attacks, bin Laden hints at the reasoning behind his jihad
