400 Updates

This blog looks at changes to the 400 app, these changes are being driven by changes in our understanding of the authorship, symbolism and chronology of the NT. Also, why did Joshua need to visit Abraham's cave? Then watch dates for March, 2025, which are coming fast. Finally a headline review.

Museum of the Bible

We are still recovering from our drive to DC to see the Museum of the Bible. The best parts of drives like this is the conversation, especially on the drive home.

The first major change from that trip was a better understanding of the exhibits that make up the room where the Megiddo Mosaic once existed. This change in understanding has helped us see references to these objects in the text. In recent blogs I have looked at the Gospel of John, likely written by Nathanael, who was particularly interested in the Fig Tree.

At least some of the Gospel of Mark is similarly interested in the River exhibit which sat under the stairs to the upper room.

The writers of the NT were experts in these exhibits and their use. They were also something like prisoners having to write past their prison guards. They were also writing in non-technical vocabulary about items that were very technical.

These strange constraints allowed their writing to be edited and kept as sacred ultimately by the Roman state religion. This was a very clever trick, and a complex writing challenge for the men who had to compose the NT we know now. It is similarly complex to unpack, as we continue to do with our work.

400 App

Our 400 app is where we reason about the overall structure of inspired text. It is where we keep a list of stories that we think are inspired.

We recently adjusted the size of the main table in that app to a grid of 25 by 25. This suggests 625 eventual inspired stories in the public, or downstairs, volume of the Testimony. This should cipher and multiply by 8 and create 5000 more stories in the additional volumes that were likely kept protected upstairs. I have covered that math in recent blogs as well.

My interest in this blog is to draw your attention to the bottom 6 rows in the table on the front of that app. Those 6 rows contain a sketched in set of stories from the NT text. This is not yet finished, the row with the book of Mark being perhaps the hardest to eventually finish.

But what you can see by looking at those rows is our current approximation of what was inspired in that body of writing. You can scroll down to the Oo row, so story 400 to see where this starts. Here you will find the opening of the Gospel of Luke. The other Gospels, Mark, Matthew, and John, follow with rows of their own.

We are generally returning to the 4 gospels as found in stock Bibles. This in part because we think the editors were constrained to editing already known scrolls. So Ananias and his evil friends bulked them up, and ordered the local scroll publishers to print the edited versions instead of the real ones.

The scroll buying public had the edited versions forced upon them even unwittingly. (Same as most news services do now. I digress.)

To rename, or otherwise break up the original scrolls would have been harder to do, without much value to a villain who wants to remain secret.

The gospels were likely given pen names by their original authors. This to protect those authors from easy identification. We would currently assign Joshua's brothers, Jacob and Jude, to Luke and Mark. Peter is likely the writer of Matthew and Nathanael is the likely writer of John. The Epistles of 1 2 and 3 John are back, also likely by Nathanael's hand.

If you keep scrolling down the table, you will see that Acts follows, spread across 2 rows in the table. This is perhaps the best filled in area in this part of the table. The content of Acts nicely fills in 2 rows.

Our working hunch is that Jacob was the author of both Luke and Acts. Jacob may have been the ghost writer for Paul. Paul had trouble with his eyes, and famously signs one of his letters in his own hand.

If Jacob is Paul's ghost writer, this means Jacob was on the journey to Rome along with Paul. Jacob was thus one of the friends who attended Paul in Caesarea. The various changes in voice, long a quirk of Acts, would indicate when Jacob was actually present for the events recorded in Acts.

In the past we thought Paul might be the author of the introductions to those books. But Jacob, Joshua's brother, would have had first hand witness to much of Joshua's life. Our current understanding is shifting general responsibility for the canon of writing back to Joshua's brothers. They knew him better than anyone else, having grown up with him.

Following the Acts related rows are the Pauline epistles, currently starting with Galatians. The thought behind this order is that the first rows in this section of the 25x25 table work out from Joshua's birth ending with Paul's arrival in Rome. Then the rows in the table work back, generally back across time. So Acts is first followed by Paul's epistles, then the general epistles, then Revelation and then finally Hebrews. That last book, a long single story, was likely penned by Joshua himself.

This entire table sets the order for the stories as found in the weekly Sabbath Reads app. So the bottom of each week's read will select out from these rows, ending with a story from a general Epistle and then usually a story from Revelation.

Ryan suspects that the current cut of Revelation is more severe than it should be. There are cells without identified stories throughout this section of the table. These will be getting more attention in future weeks.

Rethinking Chronology

We have known since the Bible Time days that Joshua's life was rerunning the historical chronology at 1 day to the historical year. The math for this has always been compelling.

The problem is that the NT we have now does not appear to document his life very well. It appears to be just dealing with the last year of his life, so his public ministry.

We now explain this problem as the result of a deliberate time shift created by the NT editor who did not want readers to see how Joshua followed the known OT history. Closely following that chronology is yet another proof of divinity that the editors would have wanted to hide.

Once we could see the mosaic at the museum, we understood the size and amount of physical work that would have been needed in ancient times to actually build such a thing. Joshua probably had help. He probably had to have built the first NT era copy of those exhibits sometime in the middle of his life.

Once we saw this as the main focus of his life after leaving his family in Nazareth, we could begin to sketch in how the historical timeline starting in Genesis was informing when Joshua was doing various things.

In a previous blog I mentioned how building Noah's ark would time to when he was 16.5 years into his life. Noah having left the old world, probably Mars, for earth at that time. This would match the date when Joshua left Nazareth for Capernaum. Again, a change in place, but also a prophetic indication that he set out to build something like an ark.

Noah's story indicates there were a total of 8 people on the ark. This likely maps to a set of early disciples who join Joshua around the same time. Perhaps his younger brothers, Jacob and Jude, perhaps a few others. The vocabulary words, 'Disciple' and 'Apostle' may indicate the distinction between those who were there when he was building, using the disciples, and those who are called and sent out later, once the work was done, the apostles.

Joshua's age for starting this seems young for our day, but there have been disputes surrounding the tech team working on DOGE. Many are quite young. Even in the early decades of the USA, sons leaving home around age 14 was not unusual, even if not that easy.

So we suspect Noah and his family is a parable for the work crew that Joshua gathered at about that time in his life. They built Joshua's house in Capernaum, a Tent of Time building, and populated it with animals and birds, exhibits and 3d models.

Babel

The rest of the historical timeline may now also inform other work. For example, the Tower of Babel, or more precisely, the Roll of Babel, when the world had 1 language and 1 manner of speech, is likely informing the condition of Joshua' life around his day 8000.

The key idea at that time in history is that they stop building. This may mean that Joshua's construction project for his Capernaum house was around 2000 days and ended at that time.

There are other implications. At that point his team has a building and 1 document, maybe audited, but no additional volumes.

After the Babel story, the people of earth spread out. This may mark the start of Joshua's public travels.

Abraham

Abraham is the next historical event that may be interesting to the chronology of Joshua. The high level historical outline being the death of Abraham's father in Haran, and then eventually buying a field near Sychar. This would be at least the parable of the pearl of great price, and the wake at Cana. The wake indicates he has turned water into wine, but the estate money and items are what he used to buy Abraham's cave.

The process of Water into Wine we generally take as the audit process, so this may be done at this point. But the math may be indicating ciphered text. We may not properly understand water into wine.

If you look at the top of the 25x25 table, the first 8 stories cover Eden to the Rainbow covenant at the end of Noah. If this were actually 6 stories, then the parable of turning water into wine is involving 6 stories/stone jars that each contained 2 or 3 gallons, or 2 ^ 3 = 8 ciphered volumes.

This may be what Abraham had available as inspired text and actually ciphered during his life.

Exodus

The gospels include many stories of Joshua crossing the sea of Galilee. Presumably at least one of them, maybe walking on water, would be the Exodus. The key idea being everyone thought they were going to drown, which was the fear walking across the bottom of the sea.

Solomon

By the time the timeline gets up to Solomon's temple, we would expect to see Joshua interacting with people from Jerusalem in some way. This is around 1000 days ahead of the crucifixion, as it was 1000 years ahead in chronological history.

Post Isaiah Scroll

The final bits of the chronology, especially Joshua's baptism and the reading of the Isaiah scroll 40 days later in Nazareth, are happening after the end of the recorded history of the OT. So at that point any chronology is not strictly against the OT narrative, but perhaps echos of that narrative.

We have more work to do in this area, but filling in Joshua's early life by matching Gospel stories to the historical chronology looks fruitful for filling in his overall life chronology.

This may also mark a point where Joshua shifts from his disciples to his apostles. This would allow, say, a repetition in some of the miracles working against a quick replay of everything done earlier with the disciples.

Ciphered Scrolls vs. Recovered Scrolls

A mystery for us is the tension between Joshua ciphering of the scrolls vs. Joshua's opening of the scroll vault as hinted at in the story of the Woman at the Well.

Why does he need to do both?

If the scrolls are safely buried, why cipher the base text?

If he has ciphered the base text, why recover the scrolls?

So why go to the cave at all?

The short answer is that there was more than scrolls buried in the cave. Joshua did not go there for the scrolls, but for some other ancient artifacts.

Let me give you a longer answer below. This is important because we just did the same by going to see the Megiddo Mosaic at the Museum of the Bible.

3d System of Models

Early in Joshua's life is the story of his flight to Egypt. Once Herod is dead his family returns from Egypt and settles in Nazareth. This part of his early life does not appear to have any direct match to the pre-flood chronology.

The only interesting story is Enoch who is taken in the year 4270 AA because there is a good testimony about him. Maybe that informs a return from Egypt? If so this would be 4270 / 364.8 = 11.7 years of age for Joshua. This is in his 12th year, so instead Enoch may be when he remained behind at age 12 and his family worried where he was.

In previous blogs I have explained, the key place in Egypt was the library at Alexandria. This was a seacoast city, and if they traveled to Egypt by sea, then this is a possible destination city.

That library is likely the moral equivalent of the Hebrew language class we took which introduced us to Paleo Hebrew letter forms. With enough of the drawn forms being at least known, it is possible to reconstruct all of the 3d model sets.

The 4 primary series we now call the gold, silver, copper and bronze series are constructed from the 2d drawn form of the Phoenician alphabet, which certainly would have been found in that library.

God Powers?

I am also starting to think that Joshua intentionally did not use his god powers to cheat. He was following a reconstruction process that any normal human could also go through at any point in history. He needed witnesses who could testify to the work, the early disciples.

Joshua did this basically to condemn anyone who says reconstruction cannot be done. This may be how he condemned the world for their lack of faith. So any passage that attributes the crucifixion to condemning the world may be misdirected. Reconstruction of the inspired text and the attendant exhibits was the main part of his life' mission, that is how he condemned the world. He condemned the editors and anyone else who doubted what god really said.

Lost Again?

A related question: Might our current recovery work eventually be lost? The story of the stone striking the statue in the Book of Daniel suggests a permanent overthrow of the old system. Other stories in Daniel date that to our era. So no, a recovery now is likely a permanent recovery. The world now has enough distributed literacy to carry it forward.

Exhibits

From these 3d model sets, with a little more work, the general exhibits can be worked out as well, especially the mount of olives, vine, table, river case, and fig tree. This is done with differing degrees of difficulty, of course. There is also a certain amount of style added to the exhibits by the builder, including choosing materials and methods. I will return to patriarch Jacob's materials and methods in a future blog.

But is all of this enough?

For working the ciphers, I think the answer is yes.

But the parable of the Pearl of Great Price suggests there was a spherical item in the cave. Such an object is not strictly formed from the alphabet.

That pearl is the Eden model that goes in the upper room. In my own case, I can build a model of it because of dreams from about 20 years ago where I was toured around in Eden. Someone very much wanted me to understand that moon's gravity system, the open interior, the caves, the flight control bridge and the propulsion system. Eventually this also included understanding the water cycle.

I woke up one morning earlier this week focused on the mosaic, especially the 2 fish and the 8 or so squares that surround it. This part of the floor has various designs that are not strictly driven by the alphabet.

The pearl of great price is hinted at on the mosaic floor as the 2 fish. The other designs around the fish are also not recoverable from the alphabet.

The squares that surround the fish on the mosaic floor are pointing at things that Joshua recovered from the cave. He could not do it any other way. Those objects ended up as art on the mosaic floor because of his recovery work 2000 years ago. Let me explain more in detail.

The 2 Fish, Yet Again

The 2 fish are swimming in a circular sea. Eden is round. Eden has a water system, with a major sea that connects the inner and outer surfaces of that moon. A detail I have only briefly considered is that part of that water system may be fresh, and the other salt. Say 2 regions in the water systems for 2 types of fish.

There is also a wall around Eden. The book of Revelation explains the overall size and that wall. The mosaic has a wall around the fish. That wall is formed something like a castle wall, pointing out, like the wall of Eden.

The NASA Cassini mission to Saturn included photos that show that there is an exterior wall at the equator. Called by some observers the molding ring for Iapetus. The real wall does point out.

On the mosaic figure of the wall there are 48 parapets around the wall.

The Eden wall is 144 cubits tall. 48 * 3 = 144. Someone did a prime factor reduction for the mosaic floor because of the size of the mosaic tiles used on that floor. Those tiles are of a low resolution, thus the reduction. (Eden is also related to time, and the 48 points at a clock too, but I digress.)

The mosaic builders were basically saying the Eden exhibit item is part of this set, but it was hopeless for them to fully explain except by reference to the story in Revelation.

4 Boxes

Around the fish are another series of squares. If you look at it cross-eyed you can see there are 4 boxes that are being opened and poured out. They form an extension of the wall around Eden. This has an interesting meaning. We are never going to get across the wall without passing the boxes. There are 12 gates to Eden, so 3 dimensions to each of the 4 boxes. Hilarious.

For each box, a lid and 1 side of each has a decorative pattern. The remaining partially visible sides only have a single decorative dot. Presumably this is the pattern for box sides that do not carry interesting artwork. I would guess real boxes sit in a row along a wall. So only the tops and fronts need interesting art. The rest of the sides and of course the bottoms are usually not seen.

In previous blogs I have covered the specific designs. Each box is picking off 1 of the 3d model series, gold, silver, copper and bronze. For each of these designs I can interpret them and match them to the individual series, but nothing in the 3d system creates those designs as seen around the fish.

Where do these designs come from?

Short answer is simple: Only by seeing the work of earlier builders.

In our day from seeing the floor at the museum.

In Joshua's day from visiting Abraham's scroll vault cave itself.

This is why visiting the cave was important. The pearl of great price parable explains the value of that visit. He had to sell everything in order to buy it.

But a longer answer needs to explain, Where did the earlier builders get these designs?

Let me suggest that those designs are directly from the creative work of the earliest post-Noah builders of the exhibits themselves. Those designs are a reference to the heritage of exhibit builders who have done this sort of work in the past. They are remembered through the exterior designs from 4 actual boxes built in the past.

I may come back later with a different explanation, but let me suggest the surface designs of those 4 boxes are from the 4 patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Joseph. I will at least assign exhibit names for these boxes to these 4 men.

Joseph eventually orders his bones be taken out of Egypt. But there is a textual variation that suggests his box or ark be taken out of Egypt. Presumably added to Abraham's cave where the earlier 3 boxes were already kept.

These design elements are what Joshua needed to see when he visited the cave. It was not possible to reconstruct the artwork on those boxes from first principles. It simply must be passed down with the text.

We just did the same with our visit to the museum. We now know the designs on the top and front of each of the 4 carrying cases. Those 4 boxes are now on my list of exhibits. They look to be large enough to carry most of the parts for the other exhibits, though maybe not strictly along series lines. Probably also not including the Table item. The River is still to be understood.

As a footnote. A few readers here were around when I first tried to 3d print a carrying case for an early set of the 3d models. You will remember when I started to do this, I was blocked by Joshua from finishing that work. None of us had any idea why, but it was a public rebuke.

Seeing these box designs is why that earlier work was stopped. There is a special design for each of the 4 main carrying cases for the bones.

Shop Work

Let me finish up this section on the exhibits with a note about this week's shop work. As we were returning from DC, I was particularly stunned by the physical size of all these items. The change in cubit length is making everything a little bigger. There is a ton of 3d printer time still ahead.

Thanks to some friends, we had financial help for the travel to DC. Because of the weather, the trip to DC was almost a week shorter than planned. This freed up some of the planned funds from the trip. I have used that savings to speed this work along by ordering another large bed Voron 3d printer.

This is an American design, but normally sourced in China because most of the technical parts are made in China. So the kitting process for the printer is cheaper there too. I took delivery before the expected start of Trump tariffs on goods from China. I don't know if it would have been under tariff or not, Trumps tariffs are generally reciprocal. Not like Americans even make 3d printers for export to places like China.

The printer requires maybe a couple hundred additional 3d printed parts. The existing 3d print farm is finishing most of that work this week. I will post photos to Telegram as this blog goes out.

This matches another Voron in the shop since 2023. The electronics in this new Voron are notably better than the older Voron. Once the new Voron is known to be running well, the old Voron will be upgraded using electronic parts readily available on Amazon. This will make the 2 machines essentially identical.

These upgrades will make it easier for the 3d print farm to produce more and larger parts. It will make the farm able to run through long parts lists quicker than it can now. I am mentally shooting to have the next round of design and printing done by Tabernacles. We'll see how much of that is realistic. Maybe after Tabernacles we can turn to manuscript audit work.

The Crown

The exhibit that deals with prophetic dates is called the crown. It will eventually encircle a room and in the Megiddo Mosaic case was likely around an upper room, as this would be its normal location.

We are following along a very rough draft of one of the timelines located on the crown, the 2000th anniversary dates for Joshua's life. This was following the trunk timeline, 1 day for each ancient year. This series runs confidently through late 2028.

Watch Dates

We are currently in the Book of Judges, and specifically in the 80 days of peace implied by the 80 year time of peace mentioned in Judges 3:30. The last year of those 80 years is Monday, March 10, 2025.

Within those 80 days is an 18 day interval implied by Judges 3:14, where Israel is oppressed by Moab. That interval floats. I have previously assigned the fulfillment of those 18 days to the pressure put on the King of Jordan to accept refugees from Gaza. He has accepted 2000 children, but likely will be pressured to accept relatives of those children. Little is being spoken of this in most western media. This was not a particularly serious headline.

The day transition between Monday, March 10, 2025 and Tuesday, March 11, 2025, marks the transition to the next time interval, also a time of peace, but this time 40 years as mentioned in Judges 5:31. The last year of that 40 replays as a day on April 19, 2025, but is then followed by yet another 40 years of peace.

For the record, we leave these long runs of peace with the replay of Abimelek judging which starts on May 30, 2025. At that point the structure of the timeline will shift and the pace of prophetic dates will pick up speed. Perhaps Trump's new administration honeymoon ends at the end of May.

Watching For Deborah and Barak

Within the 40 days that starts on 2025-03-11, we are expecting a replay of oppression by a king of Canaan. It was 20 years so should be 20 days this time around, see Judges 4:3 for time cite. See the rest of Judges 4 for the story of Deborah and Barak and the deliverance from 900 iron chariots.

The Song of Deborah is a possible culmination of this story, but that story is also likely not to be inspired. In any case the main elements are a commander who does not want to go to war, a woman prophet, and then another woman who defeats the enemy commander secretly in her tent.

Tanks In Sinai

The link here is to an article dated 2025-02-13 suggesting there is evidence of Egypt putting tanks in Sinai against existing treaty conditions. This is the likely venue we should start with for watching this fulfillment. This is a sliding prophetic window, which can begin from March 11, 2025 and runs through the end of March. It should involve around 20 days in some obvious way.

Gaza itself might be considered Canaan for this story, but that territory is not thought to have anything like tanks. Of course any military vehicle today is made out of iron, so that may not be the key thing to look for. The Egyptians may help the Gazans making this a single prophetic venue.

I will post back here in the blog once I see the headlines that match.

Current Headlines

We are still in the first few weeks of Trump's new presidential term. He seems to have been planning how to tear down much of the deep state that both caused his first term such trouble, but has also caused trouble for much of the USA since at least 911.

This change is so dramatic it is like needing sea legs for traveling on a sea going ferry in a storm. I am watching for items that help explain what Trump is doing from a high level perspective in order to get new balance for this journey.

Alastair Crooke, Trump's Preplanning

This link is to a long and interesting article on UNZ by Alastair Crooke giving various evidences that Trump is currently executing a careful plan to tear down much of the establishment that has been running the USA and Europe.

I started to think along similar lines when I saw the video of Zelensky at the White House. It looked to me like Trump and Vance had a plan and intended to publicly humiliate Zelensky if they could. It worked. Trump's speech in Congress was similarly designed to humiliate the Democrats who were sitting there pouting over Trump fixing so many things wrong in the USA. In any case, back to Crooke's article.

Putin has said in the past that Russia will not sign a peace agreement with Zelensky because he is not the lawful democratically elected leader of Ukraine. (Zelensky once was, but not any more, having overrun his term.) This appears to be an issue with Russian law, and not a personal opinion of, say, Putin.

In the article above Crooke gives various evidences of this pre-planning. One example is buried in the flurry of executive orders. Their quality as legal documents suggests careful, coordinated, pre-planning. Alastair then postulates that Trump is executing a plan for the financial collapse of the Deep State in the USA. Executive orders and audits are how Trump is pulling this off. Much of that work will inevitably lead to a similar collapse across Europe.

So Vance's speech at Munich is also part of humiliating European leaders in front of their public. I digress. Back to Crooke.

Alastair suggests the USA will eventually formally align itself with Russia instead of with Europe. Great Powers tend to want to align with each other. Europe no longer has the economic power to be considered a great power, even collectively. Crooke ends on the idea that Europe may become an uninteresting northwest corner of Asia.

Tribal Alignment

By suggesting that ultimately the USA and Russia are natural allies, Crooke may be anticipating the ultimate tribal arrangement of earth itself. Let me review the textual basis for this and some history.

The reference story for this is in Matthew 20:20-28. The mother of the children of Zebedee asks Joshua that her 2 sons sit at his right and left. He corrects her and says that this is a prepared setup, not something that she can simply ask for. The other 10 disciples then get upset over the question, but they too misunderstand that this is setup, a planned structure.

In the end, the 2 dominant tribes are Joseph and Judah. Via Joseph's son Manasseh, this is the USA and Russia. The USA takes on a masculine role in the affairs of nations, Russia takes on the feminine role. Like 2 parents raising children, each has an important role, each role is different. They compliment each other. They risk marital spats, but they are like a married couple, and must learn to get along, if for no other reason than their children.

Manasseh and Judah are the tribes that sit on either side of Joshua. They divide the world along west-east lines. Both of these tribes are endowed with natural resources not seen in the other tribes. Those 2 tribes become something like the wise parents to all the other nations who are seen in this view as children.

Russia retains authority to do this through adherence to their Orthodox Christian heritage. The USA retains authority too, but through critical thinking in regards to its Christian heritage.

Neither of these 2 main tribes are currently right before Joshua. Benjamin, of course, is the troubled child who drives everyone else crazy. Benjamin messed up the religion of the rest of the tribes. Benjamin still wants to conquer the world, doing so through lies and deceit. Russia will stop them eventually, but it will not be pretty. Read the end of Judges.

The USA and Russia were allies in World War II. The USA helped Russia with weapons, usually delivered overland via Iran. But ultimately it was Russia that defeated Germany in that war.

That same setup should generally replay again, so it would make sense for the USA and Russia to become (perhaps strong) allies ahead of World War III. Russia, in particular, should be the victor in World War III, just as it was in World War II, though perhaps again with a heavy loss of life.

The villain in World War III should thus come out of the other tribes, perhaps Naphtali/Germany again, or more likely this time out of Benjamin/Israel. If you view Nazi Hitler as the political candidate and puppet of American Zionist Bankers, which has much documented support, then you can see how history would repeat, but this time with the Nazis of Ukraine and the backing of Israel.

There should also be some sort of war in Asia at the same time, again, to rhyme with World War II. Think Russia, China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan and the USA in some form of Asian war. World War II never technically ended across the Taiwan strait. All 3 World Wars are some sort of continuation of each other. All involve dated time series related to Passion Week.

It was the Asian side of that war that reached US soil at Pearl Harbor. It is the Asian side that is more of a threat to the land mass of the USA than war with Russia. Well known prophetic words circulating in Oregon in the 1990s pointed at a Chinese ground invasion there. Prophetic dreams to that effect were very wide spread. Again, simply by using World War II as the model, we can see why. A ground invasion in the continental USA is like Pearl Harbor, only bigger.

In any case, this is how we can sketch out a rough outline of World War III. Alastair Crooke is picking off the setup for one of the key geopolitical alignments. The USA really needs to have Russia as a close trading partner and friend. The same can be said for China, but that is going to be much harder to pull off. China does not share in the Roman heritage of the USA and Russia. China is more like the serpent that Adam and Eve had to face down. In that view Russia may be seen as Eve, who ate the dragon's fruit.

Fiat Crypto

The link here is to an X post dealing with the US Government collecting various crypto currencies. The plan is for a US Crypto Reserve.

Over issuing claim checks on a vault is the heart of fiat currency. It is how silver became abundant in Jerusalem in Solomon's day, see I kings 10:21. The same will happen here, decreasing the value of each unit of crypto and forever removing the threat of crypto currency to the banking cartel. With claim checks the supply of crypto is unlimited, and the price can always be regulated.

Crypto currency was invented in part to be a distributed currency, outside of the banking cartel. It was only a matter of time before that cartel built a vault and started issuing claim checks, just as they have done since Solomon's day with every other commodity.

US In Nord Stream

This X post cites a Bild report that the USA will take over Nord Stream and return Russian gas flow to Germany. Biden blew it up. Trump must fix it. Trump looks to be trying to fix the whole European economy. He may need to do this as a condition for peace with Russia, those details are still unclear.

Big Money Is on the Move

This video is Chris Martenson having a conversation with David Russell, CEO of Gold Core. This is long, 1hr 16m, so only for the hard core. Fine if you are, say, working in the shop at the same time. Lots of interesting points, the movement of gold is of such a size that only a government or central bank is behind the movement of gold from London to New York. Probably restocking Fort Knox ahead of a physical audit.

They explain the gold leasing system. They explain the reformatting of gold bars for use in the USA. They cite the historical references that mark when Fort Knox was emptied. They suspect the gold leasing that marked that event has been withdrawn and that gold bars are now, rather suddenly, being returned.

They suggest this has rather serious positive implications for the US Balance Sheet. Trump has referenced the national balance sheet in relation to oil, and this is likely how Trump is measuring everything, including all the DOGE work.

Gold at Fort Knox, when last inventoried, was valued at $40 per oz. As they speculate, there are lots of possible ways Trump could use this gold to make the US financial situation very much better.

Mearsheimer and Sachs

The link here is a Youtube video where John Mearsheimer and Jeffrey Sachs were hosted at the 2024 All-In summit. This is a 5 month old video. It is over an hour long. I was sent this link recently as interesting background. Most readers here should also find it interesting. The man on the far right of the stage has resigned from the All-In Podcast and now spends most of his time at Mar-a-Lago. This conference session may have been, in part, his own education in these topics.

These 2 professors are friends, but they share very different views about international relations. Mearsheimer wrote the book called the Israel Lobby, so he understands Jewish influence over the USA. But, at least publicly, he disconnects that influence from American foreign policy. This is a mistake. Sachs spends most of his time at the UN, and understands the need for dialog.

From Mearsheimer's side you can hear the desire and logic of great powers to conquer the world, or at least their corner of the world. Sachs eventually closes the debate with how conquering the world only worked as a strategy before nuclear weapons. There are no remote areas left on earth, no country is in their own corner.

If you pay attention to Mearsheimer you can hear him explain his logic. It is based on there not being any higher power. By this he means military power, but his word choice gives away the fallacy in his argument. His view is based on logic where there is no active god in the world. Sachs does not answer this directly, but indicates we need to at least try and stop World War III.

There is, of course, a higher power. Only Russia has the ear of that power, which is why war with Russia is so stupid.

Live from Moscow

The link here is to another Judge Nap video. This one is where the judge and Larry Johnson are in Moscow for an interview next Monday with Russian FM Lavrov. They were getting settled in Moscow, and likely trying to overcome jet lag before Monday's interview. So they focus some on Moscow as a place. The Judge has an office in NYC, so a city comparison between Moscow and NYC is like comparing heaven and hell.

Larry will explain that the reason Moscow is so safe is because of Russia's active Orthodox Christian faith. This is the key point everyone needs to know when even considering war between NATO and Russia. Don't take just my word for it. NATO is a godless place, ruled mostly by death cult lunatics taking orders, ultimately, from Jerusalem. Russia does have Joshua's ear. Russia will eventually win.
