CONTENTS

Is It Possible... ?

Is it possible that there exists a three-thousand-year-old mystery that lies behind everything from the implosion of the New York Stock Exchange, the collapse of the American and world economy, the attack of 9/11, the rise of nations, the fall of nations, and events that have not yet happened but are yet to take place?Is it possible that the words of an ancient text are determining and controlling the future of the financial realm, the business realm, and the economic realm?Is it possible that an ordinance given to a relatively small and obscure Middle Eastern nation is now determining the future of every nation on earth?Is it possible that a spiritual principle given to a nation of shepherds and farmers lies behind the expansion and collapse of virtually every stock market in the world?Is it possible that a mystery begun over three thousand years ago on a desert mountain pinpoints the exact time, down to dates and hours, of some of the most critical events of modern times?And is it possible that this mystery is even now governing the future of everyone reading these words and the lives of most inhabitants of this planet?

It may sound like something one would expect to find in a Hollywood fantasy or science fictionbut its realas real as any phenomenon could be.

Much that will be revealed in this book has never before been revealed in written form. Most people have never heard of the word shemitah , much less the mystery that surrounds it. Yet their lives have been critically impacted, altered, or determined by its manifestation.

It all begins on a desert mountaintop upon which a bearded time-worn man stands waiting for a revelation. The revelation will come. And after the old man descends the mountain, it will continue through a series of supernatural encounters in the desert wilderness. It is within this revelation that the mystery of the Shemitah will begin.

The revelation will continue to unfold as a weeping prophet walks the ground on which had once stood the holy city, the glory of his nation. Now it lies in ruins and rubble. The reason for its destruction, the timing of the calamity, and the nature of its judgment are all contained in the Shemitah and the mystery surrounding it.

The mystery will continue to unfold beyond ancient times, through centuries and ages, until reaching the modern world.

It will embrace Americas rise to world power, the collapse of Wall Street and stock markets around the world, the march of Allied soldiers across Europe and into Berlin, the postwar global order, the events of 9/11, the Great Recession, and much more.

The mystery will converge with a second dynamic, the mystery of the towers, a phenomenon that begins with the construction of Babel and extends to the ruins of Ground Zero.

The mystery of the Shemitah will not only operate on a massive and global stage but also on the smallest of scales, altering bank accounts, determining the financial well-being or the lack of it for those who have fathomed that such a phenomenon exists, changing the course of their lives.

In recent years economic and financial analysts have been at a loss for words as they watched the collapse of the worlds economic and financial realms. And yet we will find that the secret behind these phenomena lies not with the opinions of modern pundits but in words of ancient parchments.

The mystery was first revealed in The Harbinger: The Ancient Mystery That Holds the Secret of Americas Future . I take no credit for the book or the revelations therein. I wasnt looking to write a book, nor was I seeking to come up with any message or revelation. It began without being sought after and then basically wrote itself. The Harbinger contains fourteen major revelations or mysteries. One of these revelations is that of the Shemitah.

From the moment the book was released, Ive been deluged with questions concerning Americas future and that of the world. In particular, The Harbinger s seventeenth chapter, which reveals the link between the ancient Shemitah and the events of modern times, has prompted a whirlwind of speculation. With the approach of the next Shemitah, the amount of speculation has increased exponentially. In view of this, FrontLine, publisher of The Harbinger , strongly felt that a book had to be written to open up the mystery of the Shemitah. They approached me with the idea.

My initial reaction was caution because I didnt want the message or warning contained in The Harbinger to get lost in date-setting. The Harbinger s ultimate call is that of repentance, not speculation or the setting of dates. The mysteries contained in The Harbinger all point to a coming national calamity concerning America and the world. But that calamity doesnt have to take place when we think it must or according to schedule. The judgment and calamity revealed and warned about in The Harbinger do not depend on any set date or time parameter. But barring a national change of course, it will come. The most important thing, no matter when it comes, is to be ready and to be right with God.

There was much more to the mystery of the Shemitah than what I was able to reveal in The Harbinger s one chapter concerning itso much more that it would take an entire book to reveal it. That is the reason for this book. What could not be revealed before will be revealed now. In fact, as it was with The Harbinger , most of the mysteries to be revealed in the following pages have never up to this point been revealed.

We now embark on an expedition to find the pieces of an ancient mystery. We will then begin placing the pieces together until the mystery is revealed. In the process we will answer these questions:

Could there be an ancient phenomenon lying beneath some of the most critical events of modern times?Could this phenomenon be operating behind some of the most dramatic and monumental collapses of Wall Street and the global economy?Could this phenomenon underlie some of the most colossal events of modern times?Could this phenomenon from ancient times be so precise that it has not only determined events in the modern world but also ordained their timing, down to exact dates, hours, even minutes?Could this phenomenon already be affecting, shaping, and altering our lives and the lives of virtually everyone we know?Does this ancient mystery hold the key to what the future holds, what is yet to come?Are there signs and harbingers warning us of what lies ahead?Will the American age as we know it continue for many more years, or will we witness its end?Is America in danger of a coming calamity, a collapse, even judgment?What does the future hold for the world?Next page
