Readers - If you've been one of the few who have followed my posts over the years, you've read articles from me about Polonium, Element 84; 84 being the Hebrew gematria of Enoch, patriarch number Seven who is "taken" by God alive up into Heaven in Genesis 5. I wrote my first article about it in very early October 2004. It was about the element number 84, Polonium's melting and boiling point numbers, and Jared, Enoch's father). It also indicated a plausible connection to the seventh planet Uranus. I felt sure that The Lord was showing me a marker for the future, ie Polonium. I have to admit though, that in the hectic pace of life it dropped off my radar. Yassar Arafat, the famous and infamous leader of the PLO, died shortly thereafter from, at that time, an unknown cause - on November 11, 2004. Two years later on November 23, 2006, the papers of the world carried a story that I was excited to see: Alexander Litveninko, a former Russian spy living in London, had died a brutal death from Polonium 210 poisoning. 210 was the isotope number. Traces of this highly radioactive element were found everywhere the Russians who met Litveninko had been, and it was traced back to Russia via the planes. That was the fulfillment of the info the Lord had shown me in early 10/2004. I immediately wrote long and verbose articles about it. ; ) Years afterwards, Yassar Arafat's widow asked for, and got, an exhumation of her husband's remains and effects so that the exact cause of death (possibly) could be established. Swiss, French and Russian teams analyzed the materials. To no one's surprise, the Russian finds indicated he died of natural causes - but according to different articles I read, the Swiss (at least) found traces of Polonium at very high levels. What actually happened is up for grabs - but I submit the following items of note: The Lord showed me the Polonium numbers about four weeks before Arafat died. Two years later, in the SAME MONTH, Litveninko died of Polonium poisoning, confirming the marker. Watch this: The inclusive day count from the death of Yassar Arafat to the death of Alexander Litvevninko is: 743 days. Strong's Greek word 743 = Archaggelos which means "Archangel". This word appears in only two places in the New Testament - 1 Thessalonians 4:16 "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first ..." and Jude 1:9 "Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee". These are unique verses in their own right - but 1 Thessalonians 4:16 is well known as the first part of the two part event yet to come known as the Resurrection of the dead and the Catching Away of the Living (saints). In addition, Jude is the only NT book that mentions Michael by name, and also actually quotes Enoch, ( from the book of Enoch) he being the possible (probable?) prototype of the Catching Away. The appearance of the 743 number, which was previously unknown to me, in these two important books and verses, is more than noteworthy imho. All these markers, numbers and fulfillments seem to be like a chain the Lord is forging, one link at a time. It's not unreasonable to look at Arafat and Litveninko as Polonium's two confirming witnesses. ie two or three witnesses establish the truth of a matter. ***** On another note, the Greek gematria total of Michael = 689. 689 is the number that sits between two Jared numbers separated by the Celcius to Kelvin conversion number 273. Jared is Enoch's father, see Genesis 5. 689 + 273 = 962. Jared (descend) lives to be 962. 689 - 273 = 416 Jared Greek gematria = 416 thus, gematria 416 = scripture reference number 4:16. Jared means "Descend", and that is the first verb of the verse - what The Lord Jesus "Himself" does ... He Descends! 962 ---> 689 <---416 on a second note: the Greek gematria of Archangel in Jude 1:9 from above = 1013. Cross number systems: gematria 1013 = scripture reference number 10:13 perfect match! Daniel 10:13 "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia ..." From where I am sitting, based on the above, it looks to me like Michael is the Archangel of 1 Thessalonians 4:16 who shouts. Jesus is Lord.
