"Honeybees, Plagues, and
Genes"
Dear Doves,
Some of this is my
anecdotal observations which might be of interest. As a former beekeeper,
the attempt to blame the loss of honeybees on cell phone towers makes me
wonder if there's not a more obvious electromagnetic culprit. If
electromagnetism is causing the loss of bees, there is a much greater danger
than cell phones which might better correlate to this recently occurring
problem. That threat would be the new digital TV stations that are
much greater in power and have just started broadcasting in the last two
years in many areas. I lost all of my bees due to the mite infestation
in the late 80's but my brother has continued to struggle to keep a few
bee hives going. His bees have prospered the last few years even
though cell phone coverage has blanketed his area for some time.
However, he lives almost 50 miles from the nearest TV station in any direction.
Even though I doubt the problem will turn out to be due to the digital
TV signals either, I would certainly look there first.
A recently posted
article decried the devastating loss of crops if we lost the honey bees.
I am also a gardener and maintain a home orchard, and the loss of bees
due to the mite infestation effectively wiped out all honeybees in my area.
I have searched for bees in the Spring at different times to see if the
bee population was returning and it is usually difficult to find a single
bee in a fruit tree in full bloom, or a large patch of clover, both of
which are favorite food sources for bees. I have not seen any noticeable
loss of production in my melons or cucumbers as the article stated.
Being in a very rural area, I am blessed with a large population of bumblebees,
wasps, and other types of insects that have performed the service of pollinating
my garden and orchard. The only noticeable effect has been the lack
of full clusters of wild cherries. Whereas before the loss of honeybees,
most clusters would be fully loaded, now the largest clusters are only
about 30% full. So I am seeing an effect due to the loss of bees,
but it is not as devastating as the article implied.
Of course the loss
of honey bees whether due to mites or electromagnetism is just another
plague associated with the endtimes in which we live and people not being
satisfied to stay within the bounds that God placed them. One of
the greatest causes of plagues in our time is due to international trade
transporting devastating species of plants, animals, and insects to places
that God didn't place them. I personally have to continually battle
with fire ants, kudzu, Japanese honeysuckle, Japanese beetles, and a plethora
of other blights, funguses, curses and plagues brought to the U.S. either
deliberately or unknowingly. Even though killer bees are already
headed this way, the geneticists will probably manufacture something more
devastating by the time they reach my area so that there will be something
else of greater concern when they arrive.
One of the interesting
things about it being like the days of Noah when Jesus returns is in the
area of genetic modifications, which is also one of the possible causes
of the loss of honeybees. Research is indicating that young bees
fed from genetically altered crops is detectable in the young bees.
Even though it's not stated on the surface, it appears that the primary
reason for the flood in Noah's day was due to the devil trying to pollute
man's genes, or bloodline. Some of the fallen angels left their first
state (spirit realm) and were able to take upon themselves flesh and marry
the daughters of man, all which they chose (Gen. 6:2). One of the
reasons that Noah was chosen was because his bloodline from Adam was perfect
(Gen. 6:9). After the flood, just as God set down additional laws
to man, he must have also done so for the fallen angels, to prevent it
from continuing to be a problem. Compare II Peter 2:4 with Jude 1:6
which both refer to the subset of fallen angels which took upon themselves
flesh and are incarcerated in chains for doing so. I think you can
see that all fallen angels didn't leave their spiritual habitation to take
upon themselves flesh which is why some are still roaming free today and
are the principalities and powers in heavenly places (Eph. 3:10 & 6:12).
If you will accept it, the "sin" referred to in II Peter 2:4 (right before
mentioning the flood in the next verse) was leaving the spirit realm and
not the original rebellion. If it were the original rebellion, then
the devil himself would also have be held in chains of darkness, and there
would be no current principalities and powers in heavenly places.
Since the second Adam
was born of a woman of a pure bloodline from the first Adam, you would
think the devil would lose interest in messing with man's genes. However,
between atheistic geneticists, abortionists and stem cell researchers,
and UFO demons, it appears that he is back at it as it was in the days
of Noah. At least we won't have to put up with it much longer!
Hosanna, Lord Jesus!
