Ancient obelisk catches sun in St. Peter’s Square.

VATICAN CITY — Hidden among the paving stones of St. Peter’s Square there is a simple clock and calendar. All you need is a sunny day.

The 83-foot stone obelisk in the middle of the square acts as a sundial that can accurately indicate midday and the two solstices, thanks to a granite meridian and marble markers embedded in the square.

At noon on Dec. 21, the obelisk’s shadow falls on the marble disk farthest from the obelisk’s base, while at noon on June 21 — the summer solstice — the tip of the shadow will fall just a few yards from the obelisk. In between are five other disks marking when the sun enters into which sign of the zodiac.

A long, thin granite strip running from the obelisk toward the pope’s window and through one of the fountains acts as the meridian: a line that indicates when the sun has reached true or solar noon and is at its highest point in the sky.

The church has always been keenly interested in astronomy to help guide and establish fundamental liturgical days and the times of prayer such as the Angelus, which is recited in the morning, at noon and in the evening. While sunrise and sunset are easy to figure out, sundials could accurately tell midday.

Even when early mechanical clocks were introduced, they were a luxury item for a few and not always accurate, so using the sun to mark true noon was an important backup.

Washington Monument

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about the monument in Washington, D.C. For other monuments dedicated to George Washington, see List of monuments dedicated to George Washington.


The Washington Monument is an obelisk near the west end of the National Mall in Washington, D.C., built to commemorate the first U.S. president, General George Washington. The monument, made of marble, granite, and bluestone gneiss,[1] is both the world's tallest stone structure and the world's tallest obelisk, standing 555 feet 518 inches (169.294 m).[n 1] There are taller monumental columns, but they are neither all stone nor true obelisks.[n 2] It is also the tallest structure in Washington D.C. It was designed by Robert Mills, an architect of the 1840s. The actual construction of the monument began in 1848 but was not completed until 1884, almost 30 years after the architect's death. This hiatus in construction happened because of co-option by the Know Nothing party, a lack of funds, and the intervention of the American Civil War. A difference in shading of the marble, visible approximately 150 feet (46 m) or 27% up, shows where construction was halted for a number of years. The cornerstone was laid on July 4, 1848; the capstone was set on December 6, 1884, and the completed monument was dedicated on February 21, 1885. It officially opened October 9, 1888. Upon completion, it became the world's tallest structure, a title previously held by the Cologne Cathedral. The monument held this designation until 1889, when the Eiffel Tower was completed in Paris, France. The monument stands due east of the Reflecting Pool and the Lincoln Memorial.

The monument was damaged during the August 23 2011 Virginia earthquake; it remains closed to the public indefinitely while the structure is assesed.[6]

Two Constitutions in the United States. 1st was suspended in favor of a Vatican corporation in 1871.

Two Constitutions in the United States. 1st was suspended in favor of a Vatican corporation in 1871.

Pope meeting with the board of directors of The Vatican Bank

Since 1871 the United States president and the United States Congress has been playing politics under a different set of rules and policies. The American people do not know that there are two Constitutions in the United States. The first penned by the leaders of the newly independent states of the United States in 1776. On July 4, 1776, the people claimed their independence from Britain and Democracy was born. And for 95 years the United States people were free and independent. That freedom ended in 1871 when the original “Constitution for the united states for America” was changed to the “THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA”.

The Congress realized that the country was in dire financial straits, so they made a financial deal with the devil – international bankers — (in those days, the Rothschilds of London ) thereby incurring a DEBT to said bankers. The conniving international bankers were not about to lend the floundering nation any money without some serious stipulations. So, they devised a way of taking back control of the United States and thus, the Act of 1871 was passed. With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress created a separate form of government for the District of Columbia.

With the passage of “the Act of 1871” a city state (a state within a state) called the District of Columbia located on 10 sq miles of land in the heart of Washington was formed with its own flag and its own independent constitution – the United States’ secret second constitution.

The flag of Washington’s District of Columbia has 3 red stars, each symbolizing a city state within the three city empire. The three city empire consists of Washington D.C., London, and Vatican City. London is the corporate center of the three city states and controls the world economically. Washington’s District of Columbia city state is in charge of the military, and the Vatican controls it all under the guise of spiritual guidance. Although geographically separate, the city states of London, the Vatican and the District of Columbia are one interlocking empire called “Empire of the City”

The constitution for the District of Columbia operates under tyrannical Vatican law known as “Lex Fori” (local law). When congress passed the act of 1871 it created a separate corporation known as THE UNITED STATES and corporate government for the District of Columbia. This treasonous act has unlawfully allowed the District of Columbia to operate as a corporation outside the original constitution of the United States and in total disregard of the best interests of the American citizens.

POTUS Obama at the Vatican Corporate headquarters

POTUS is the Chief Executive (president) of the Corporation of the United States operating as any other CEO of the corporation — governs w/a Board of Directors (cabinet officials) and managers (Senators/Congress) Obama as others before him is POTUS — operating as “vassal king” taking orders once again from “The City of London” through the RIIA (Royal Institute of Intl Affairs). The Illuminati (founded by the The Society of Jesus or Jesuits, the largest Roman Catholic Religious Military Order headed by the Black Pope) created the Royal Institute of International Affairs (RIIA) in 1919. The American equivalent to the RIIA is the Council of Foreign Relations (CFR). The RIIA and CFR set up Round Table Groups (based on the King Arthur myths).

What did the Act of 1871 achieve? The ACT of 1871 put the United States back under British rule (which is under Vatican rule). The United States people lost their independence in 1871.

THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is the constitution of the incorporated UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. It operates in an economic capacity and has been used to fool the People into thinking it governs the Republic. It does not! Capitalization is NOT insignificant when one is referring to a legal document. This seemingly “minor” alteration has had a major impact on every subsequent generation of Americans. What Congress did by passing the Act of 1871 was create an entirely new document, a constitution for the government of the District of Columbia, an INCORPORATED government.

Instead of having absolute and unalienable rights guaranteed under the organic Constitution, we the people now have “relative” rights or privileges. One example is the Sovereign’s right to travel, which has now been transformed (under corporate government policy) into a “privilege” that requires citizens to be licensed – driver’s licenses and Passports. By passing the Act of 1871, Congress committed TREASON against the People who were Sovereign under the grants and decrees of the Declaration of Independence and the organic Constitution. The Act of 1871 became the FOUNDATION of all the treason since committed by government officials.

As of 1871 the United States isn’t a Country; It’s a Corporation! In preparation for stealing America, the puppets of Britain’s banking cabal had already created a second government, a Shadow Government designed to manage what “the people” believed was a democracy, but what really was an incorporated UNITED STATES. Together this chimera, this two-headed monster, disallowed “the people” all rights of sui juris. [you, in your sovereignty]

The U.S.A. is a Crown Colony. The U.S. has always been and remains a British Crown colony. King James I, is not just famous for translating the Bible into “The King James Version”, but for signing the “First Charter of Virginia” in 1606 — which granted America’s British forefathers license to settle and colonize America. The charter guaranteed future Kings/Queens of England would have sovereign authority over all citizens and colonized land in America.

After America declared independence from Great Britain, the Treaty of Paris, signed on September 3, 1783 was signed. That treaty identifies the King of England as prince of U.S. “Prince George the Third, by the grace of God, king of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, defender of the faith, duke of Brunswick and Lunebourg, arch- treasurer and prince elector of the Holy Roman Empire etc., andof the United States of America“– completely contradicting premise that America won The War of Independence.

Article 5 of that treaty gave all British estates, rights and properties back to Britain.

It is agreed that Congress shall earnestly recommend it to the legislatures of the respective states to provide for the restitution of all estates, rights, and properties, which have been confiscated belonging to real British subjects; and also of the estates, rights, and properties of persons resident in districts in the possession on his Majesty’s arms and who have not borne arms against the said United States. And that persons of any other decription shall have free liberty to go to any part or parts of any of the thirteen United States and therein to remain twelve months unmolested in their endeavors to obtain the restitution of such of their estates, rights, and properties as may have been confiscated; and that Congress shall also earnestly recommend to the several states a reconsideration and revision of all acts or laws regarding the premises, so as to render the said laws or acts perfectly consistent not only with justice and equity but with that spirit of conciliation which on the return of the blessings of peace should universally prevail. And that Congress shall also earnestly recommend to the several states that the estates, rights, and properties, of such last mentioned persons shall be restored to them, they refunding to any persons who may be now in possession the bona fide price (where any has been given) which such persons may have paid on purchasing any of the said lands, rights, or properties since the confiscation.

And it is agreed that all persons who have any interest in confiscated lands, either by debts, marriage settlements, or otherwise, shall meet with no lawful impediment in the prosecution of their just rights.

It is becoming increasingly apparent to American citizens that government is no longer being conducted in accordance with the U.S. Constitution, or, within states, according to state constitutions. While people have recognized for more than 150 years that the rich and powerful often corrupt individual officials, or exert undue influence to get legislation passed that favors their interests, most Americans still cling to the naive belief that such corruption is exceptional, and that most of the institutions of society, the courts, the press, and law enforcement agencies, still largely comply with the Constitution and the law in important matters. They expect that these corrupting forces are disunited and in competition with one another, so that they tend to balance one another.

Mounting evidence makes it clear that the situation is far worse than most people think, that during the last several decades the U.S. Constitution has been effectively overthrown, and that it is now observed only as a façade to deceive and placate the masses. What has replaced it is what many call the Shadow Government – created with the illegal passing of the Act of 1871. It still, for the most part, operates in secret, because its control is not secure. The exposure of this regime and its operations must now become a primary duty of citizens who still believe in the Rule of Law and in the freedoms which this country is supposed to represent.

Washington Monument - the pagan symbol at the heart of America's capital


25/10/2010


by Pat Franklin

A misleading email is going round about the Washington Monument – the 555 ft high pagan symbol in the nation’s capital. The ostensibly patriotic email makes much of the fact that there are two Latin words at the top of the monument – Laus Deo, or Praise God. Things like this set my deception radar beeping.

The email infers that somehow the monument is a Christian edifice, and that is completely untrue. The Lord Jesus does not need a pagan structure harking back to blasphemous ancient Egyptian religion. By the way, you would not want to know many details of that religion. They are disgusting, and not fit to put on our website or to discuss in mixed company. Remember, the obelisk is a phallic symbol, and that is central to Egyptian paganism. There it stands, a symbolic male organ 55 stories high, visible from the White House. And we good little naive Americans are supposed to approve of it?

If I were running things in America, I would never allow an obelisk to be built on American soil. Never.

As for the words Laus Deo (Praise God) carved at the top of the monument, praise which god? Surely not the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, because if it was to praise Him, there would be some mention of His Son Jesus, but no, just ‘God’.

The monument is more than likely praising the god of the Freemasons - Satan, otherwise known as the Great Architect of the Universe, who is not God at all. The true God has a lot of wonderful titles, and He tells us in the Bible what they are. ‘Great Architect of the Universe’ is not one of them.

The height of the obelisk is said in the email to be 555 ft. They don’t mention the number in inches in the email, only the number in feet, and 555 ft high sounds pretty innocuous. But multiply 555 by 12 inches to the foot, and the obelisk is 6660 inches high. Other websites claim the true height is 555.5 ft, which, multiplied by 12 inches, would make the structure 6666 inches high. Either way, 666 is the number of Satan, according to the Book of Revelation, Chapter 13. At some stage Satan’s man, the Antichrist, is going to require everyone on earth to take his name or number on their right hand or forehead.

Question – why would anyone want to build a useless structure to that precise height?

The base of the obelisk is 55.5 ft. on each side, according to some websites. Multipled by 12 inches, we again get that horrible number, 666, the number of Satan.

Another thing about the Washington Monument Laus Deo email which really irritated me was a remark at the end implying that if I did not forward it to others, it was a failure on my part. No way. If you get the email, do not forward it to anyone, unless to pick it apart and tell the truth about the monument.

Does this make me an unpatriotic person because I loathe the Washington Monument? No, it makes me a thinking person. The Lord Jesus told us the last days would be marked by deception. He commanded His followers: ‘Take heed that no man deceive you!’ Well, start taking heed! Use the brain God gave you.

The designer of the monument was a French American, Pierre l’Enfant, and Freemasons say he was not one of them, but of course they may be lying. He was hired to lay out the street design of Washington D.C., in which many have seen satanic Freemason symbols.

Unfortunately, Freemasons were involved from the early days of my country. As with every generation, there is a battle between darkness and light, and people get confused when the darkness disguises itself as light. Obviously, George Washington was a tremendous general, and what a debt we all owe him. But how I wish he had not been a Freemason! If you go to George Washington’s house, as I did, you will be shown his Freemason equipment. I was very sorry to see it, very disappointed and, yes, disillusioned. It may be that he joined as a young man and then had little or nothing to do with masonry. I hope so, but I wish with all my heart he had renounced it publicly.

By the way, at his Mt Vernon home you will also see the remains of the slave quarters of his many slaves. He was just a man. You don’t have to worship him. You don’t even have to like him. You can still be a good American patriot, loving your country and loving the Lord Jesus – you do not have to worship the Founding Fathers, with their feet of clay! We worship the Lord Jesus, not men, and certainly not any pagan monument!

Although Freemasonry was in at the very beginning of our nation, they never teach about it in our history classes, so that anyone who finds out about it looks like a nut case. But there is such a thing as loyalty to our Lord Jesus, and He is the way, the truth and the life. The builders of the obelisk would be strangers to Him.

Personally, I dislike most monuments, and, since the Laus Deo email caused me to focus on it, I especially dislike the Washington Monument. People are just people - even if they become president - and it’s not a good idea to raise up some great structure in praise of them. I love what Chuck Smith (founder of the first Calvary Chapel) said in one teaching: ‘When I’m dead, some idiot will want to build a Chuck Smith monument – don’t do it!’

I can just imagine one of our readers say in disgust: ‘Next she’ll be attacking the Statue of Liberty!’ OK, that could be another article, if I have time. After all, there is a good reason that the Lord gave us the Second Commandment (no statues!). (Please look it up, Exodus Chapter 20 – it is even in the Catholic Jerusalem Bible, although they never teach it in their schools; they like their statues too much.).

Getting back to the Laus Deo email and the pagan Washington Monument, there are lots of websites which delve into the layout of the city of Washington and the Freemason symbols on the dollar bill etc. Here is one.

http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/False%20Religions/Illuminati/dc.htm


I’d better stop while I’m ahead. You can delete the Laus Deo email if you get it, but always Laus Verite Deo – praise the true God, the Father of the Lord Jesus Christ !

Hope you readers out there are not mad at me, but the truth is the truth, and we are about at the end of the end times. The Lord Jesus is coming back and all our proud structures are going, the Washington Monument among them. The King of Kings is going to wipe this earth clean like a dish.
Here’s a thought. Instead of forwarding the Laus Deo email, you can copy this and send it round directing your friends to our website www.thefreepressonline.co.uk

'Baby Joseph' Dies in His Canadian Home Surrounded by Family

Published September 28, 2011

| FoxNews.com




The baby who in March was hours from being pulled off life support at a Canadian hospital but was rescued by a pro-life group that brought the boy to the U.S. for treatment, died Tuesday night in the comfort of his own home in Windsor, Ontario.


"Baby Joseph" died with his mother Sana Nader, father Moe Maraachli at the home, CBC News reported.


“It seemed like a relaxing breath, like he was OK. It didn’t seem like he struggled,” Nader said, according to the report. “It was God’s way of telling us his last breath was OK.”


The family of 20-month-old Joseph Maraachli, who suffered from a rare, progressive neurological disease rendering him in a vegetative state, understood his long-term prognosis was grim. But they sought a medical procedure that would, at the minimum, allow boy to die at home instead of in a hospital bed hooked up to a respirator.

But the boy took center stage in a right-to-life dispute after the Canadian hospital denied to perform the tracheotomy and reportedly recommended he be removed from life support, according to reports.

His parents appealed to Canadian courts to overturn the hospital's decision, but were denied.


Upon learning the news, Rev. Frank Pavone and other staff members at Priests for Life, the pro-life group, removed "Baby Joseph" from the Canadian hospital and delivered him to Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital in St. Louis, where doctors successfully performed the tracheotomy that enabled the boy to be moved back to his home without the need of a respirator.


Pavone said in a statement:


"I learned with sadness tonight of the passing of Baby Joseph, and extend my prayers to his family. This young boy and his parents fulfilled a special mission from God. Amidst a Culture of Death where despair leads us to dispose of the vulnerable, they upheld a Culture of Life where hope leads us to welcome and care for the vulnerable."


He continued, "From my first conversation with Baby Joseph's parents, they expressed to me their trust in God. They had no demands of Him regarding how long their son would live. They just wanted to fulfill their calling to love their child unconditionally and to protect him from those who considered his life worthless.


"I praise God tonight for the tens of thousands who stood with Priests for Life and other prolife groups to save Baby Joseph. We remain convinced that the value of life is not measured in months or years, but rather reflected in the love we share moment by moment. We all loved Joseph, because God entrusts us to the care of each other. In that conviction we will continue to counteract the culture of death and restore protection and equality to all, born and unborn."


Priests for Life covered all of the family’s medical bills while Joseph underwent treatment in the U.S. and also covered the costs of Joseph’s flight home, the Windsor Star reports.


"This is all the family ever wanted, let God decide when their child should leave this earth, not doctors our the civil courts," Brother Paul O'Donnell posted on Facebook, according to the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation's website.

Largest Anglican Church Congregation in Canada Leaves Buildings, Puts Faith into Action

VANCOUVER, BC: Largest Anglican Church Congregation in Canada Leaves Buildings, Puts Faith into Action

ANGLICAN ESSENTIALS
http://www.anglicanessentials.ca/wordpress/index.php/author/gordon/
Sept. 22, 2011

St. John's Vancouver Anglican Church, the largest Anglican congregation in Canada, will begin Sunday services at a new location after moving from its historic location on Granville Street and Nanton Avenue. The congregation, through a lengthy legal action, chose to leave their buildings rather than compromise their beliefs.

St. John's Vancouver, which had been meeting at the Granville Street location for almost 100 years, will begin Sunday services on September 25 at Oakridge Adventist Church, at West 37th Avenue and Baillie Street in Vancouver.

Disagreement over basic Christian beliefs has separated Anglican congregations around the world into two camps, usually labeled orthodox and liberal, with those holding to historic, Bible-based values and beliefs in the vast majority. The St. John's Vancouver Anglican congregation has aligned itself with the mainstream global Anglican Church, rather than continue as part of the local, more liberal Diocese of New Westminster.

"It is remarkable to be part of a Christian community which is putting faith into action in a way that seems inexplicable to those who love the world," explained Canon David Short, Rector of St. John's Vancouver. "We are doing something countercultural and counterintuitive for the truth of God's word, losing something very valuable for the surpassing worth of Jesus Christ, holding the unity of faith by acting together as one, and joyfully accepting the confiscation of our property."

The underlying, central issues of belief are: the authority of God's Word in the Bible, the uniqueness of Jesus Christ, and the need to be saved by Him. St. John's, along with the majority of Anglicans worldwide, joyfully upholds the historic biblical faith, expressed in the founding Anglican affirmations.

The move was the result of a court action to determine whether the Diocese of New Westminster or the St. John's Vancouver congregation was conducting the ministry for which the buildings were intended, and is a result of an on-going world-wide upheaval in the Anglican Communion, the 80 million member Christian Protestant denomination formed 500 years ago.

St. John's Vancouver's final Sunday services at the Granville Street location on September 18, attended by over 1,100 congregants, included prayers to bless the Diocese of New Westminster and those that would occupy the buildings after the congregation had left. Congregation members both wept and smiled as they left the church to travel the short distance to the new location. There, they joyfully sung hymns and prayed together.

"It is inexpressibly sad that we are forced to choose between God's final word and these wonderful buildings," said Canon Short, "but we feel relief and much joy in God's faithfulness and provision for us."

St. John's Vancouver will continue to be led by its present clergy, Canon David Short, Rector, Venerable Daniel Gifford, Associate Minister, Rev. James Wagner, and Rev. Aaron Roberts, assisted by Canon Dr. J.I. Packer, Honorary Assistant Minister and a world-renowned published theologian, a staff of 15, and by the Trustees of St. John's Vancouver Anglican Church.

The new location secured by St. John's Vancouver is at West 37th Avenue and Baillie Street and belongs to Oakridge Adventist Church, which has graciously offered to share its building. St. John's Sunday services will start in Oakridge on September 25, 2011 and all other mid-week activities are planned to continue as normal in the new location.

All those who visited St. John's Granville Street location in the past, new neighbours in the Oakridge location, and all visitors and residents in Vancouver are welcome at the services, prayer times and church events. Special events are planned during the transition period and special welcoming services will be held.
