Thanks for the review.
And I don't mind admitting that I am incorrect in interpreting the materials, but I remain convinced, at this time, that these two modern day decrees of 1535 and 1969 were intended to point at something relating to the coming of the Son of Man.
I can't envision, at this time, how this corona virus situation fits in with the Biblical eschatological narrative, if at all. But even as an aside to the Betelgeuse issue, I'm still watching it. Every 14 days the asymptomatic amoungst us incubate a new and deleterious number.
Another example would be the volcano in the Philippines. There are always volcanoes erupting. That would never prove to become an apocalyptic event unless dozens of big ones went off all at once.
But if closing down China, because of a new virus outbreak, were to cause a black swan economic event, that in itself might prove to become the catalyst for the end times where the man of sin will be revealed.
To be honest, I've taken a financial bet against my own theory. I bought some depressed oil stocks on the recent market downturn, betting on a rebound.
If the corona virus turns into a nothing burger, the Saudis should step back in, cut production, lend support back to the WTI price, and the oil shares will rebound.
But if this virus business is the stuff of the end of days, WTI may at some point go limit down, my oil companies will go BK, demand will be destroyed and I will call out to the rocks and to the mountains: "fall on me and hide me from the wrath of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb.
So spooky times they are.
China markets open up again tonight.
For the YEAR of the Rat.
Apocalyptic.
Apocalypse
"Apocalypse" (ἀποκάλυψις) is a Greek word meaning "revelation", "an unveiling or unfolding of things not previously known and which could not be known apart from the unveiling".

Babylon, the jewel of kingdoms, the pride and glory of the Babylonians, will be overthrown by God like Sodom and Gomorrah. Isa 13:20 She will never be inhabited or lived in through all generations; there no nomads will pitch their tents, there no shepherds will rest their flocks.
