There are many more for anyone caring to use Google's search engine to learn more about Harold Camping and his false teachings. It is my hope that anyone reading this message before May 21, 2011 and believes in Camping's words will think twice - indeed, many times over, before accepting anything that this man says, thank you. == Below is text created years ago. I have no time right now to update this page in its entirety but I hope that it will suffice. - - -

I created my username out of practicality. As I become more familiar with Wikipedia, I'll input some of my knowledge into other webpages. I've done this in a minor way, based upon knowledge, memory and experience.

Brief: My History on Wikipedia

edit

I had created this username in response to the action I was taking at the time, which was to 'watch' and then to add to this already-created wikipedia reference for "Imette St. Guillen". I had become indirectly involved in the St. Guillen murder case as one of The Falls' protestors. I have been inside The Falls Bar; been to Fountain Avenue which is a dreary site; traveled a short distance from there to the Lindenwood diner, and have seen Imette St. Guillen's apartment building. I've also seen her family's house and the schools she had attended in Boston. I've been to the Fundraiser held in her honor in September of 2006 and met her family; and I have seen Littlejohn's dwelling. So, unlike some others who have contributed here, I am well-acquainted with this case.

You can read of my involvement on this webpage if you scroll down to the column by Terry James titled "Endtime Behavior":

http://www.raptureready.com/nm/86.html

For almost the last three years, I have not seen any justice in this murder case, and anyone else concerned with justice for victims has my shared concerns as well. Anyone concerned with victims' rights and is studying this case carefully will note the discrepancies: the reporting of the case in general and sometimes the lack of reporting anything; the conflicting accounts of the so-called 'witnesses', two of whom were "homeless people"; the lack of focus on the bartender, who hired not one but two ex-con's as bouncers. On and on. I direct you to Joyce B. David's letter to Judge Pfau which is really a bombshell and confirms a lot of what we, who protested this evil bar, believed! Please use this link:

http://www.crimesceneblog.com/docs/stguillen_imette/littlejohn letter to pfau.html

As for what the so-called homeless people were "alleged" to have said, my response is this. I went down there one evening, parked my car at the corner of where they said that Littlejohn's van made a turn onto Canal Street. It was impossible to even see my own car from The Falls bar, as they allege to have said that they witnessed, and my car is light colored! This is but one small example of the conflicting testimonies in this case.

Unfortunately, as of March 12, 2008, the website "Justice For Imette" has been closed down and the only way to view any of those pages is by using Internet Archive Wayback Machine. However, a new website has recently been created by Imette St. Guillen's family and their lawyer, Chris Lang, titled "The Spirit of Imette" Foundation. You can link to it here:

http://www.spiritofimette.org/

In regards to the other murders of 2006, I have also created related webpages in Wikipedia for references such as "Fountain Avenue", "Murder of Romona Moore" and Murder of Chanel Petro-Nixon and I have linked these pages to St. Guillen's page. As of 12/07/2007, I had re-created and uploaded a new Wikipedia reference for Murder of Jennifer Moore with references, etc. the previous page for Jennifer Moore was 'AfD' by the Administrators. As of January of 2009, there has been absolutely no news about Jennifer Moore's trial, nor has news of her alleged murderer been forthcoming. Nothing at all has been reported about Chanel Petro-Nixon. I've also decided to contribute to the Murder of Nixzmary Brown page with considerable input and update on that case as well as the related case of Justina Morales.

I view most of these tragedies as failures of the justice system! We may have some form of justice in the case of Nixzmary Brown, but those trial decisions were not satisfactory either.

Dedication of my Page - to Jesus Christ

edit

I dedicate this page to Jesus Christ, my savior and Lord who will one day judge me and the rest of Mankind. If there is a mass-disappearance of people anytime soon, then understand that the Rapture has occurred, which could be soon judging how the economy is floundering, the number of earthquakes that have occurred in the last few years, etcetera. It is unfortunate that this economy appears to be crumbling and I take absolutely no pleasure in that knowledge. I do love America! The Bible reveals however that the recreated Roman Empire, mentioned as the "ten-toed" kingdom in Daniel, and the 'Beast' that rises from the Sea in Revelation, will be kingdoms in force during the time of the biblical "Great Tribulation, mentioned in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21. You can check these scriptures out for yourself. It's possible that I'll be gone, taken at the Rapture so, you who are reading this after the disappearance should give serious thoughts to understanding biblical scripture. You'll need it to survive the next few days and years of your life. I direct all of you primarily to J. Dwight Pentecost's excellent book, "Things to Come", which, interestingly, I have seen for sale in Barnes & Noble on 66th Street and Broadway just two weeks ago. I never thought that I would ever see a solid book on Eschatology being sold in that store. Maybe Border's will hopefully do the same.

Now if you don't understand these things -- and many do not -- then visit these webpages which discuss my main focus of interest - Eschatology, which is the study of the Last Things:


If you're reading these writings before the Rapture, then you might want to check on Rapture Ready's Rapture Index page, found at:

http://www.raptureready.com/rap2.html

I can't overemphasize how serious the study of Biblical Prophecy is.

The Rapture and the future of the rest of the people left behind.

Discussion of Murder in General

edit

In discussing the subject of 'Murder', you can read this in the first chapter of John; specifically - 1 John 3:15:

"Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him."

No murderer has eternal life! So perhaps you can begin to understand why I have decided to personally 'weigh-in' on the subject of murder, especially concerning these young girls: Imette St. Guillen, Jennifer Moore, Romona Moore, and Chanel Petro-Nixon.

edit

I have been editing, adding to and otherwise keeping track of the Imette St. Guillen page as, in the past,an unknown user had inserted false comments, such as changing 'Venezuelan' to 'Puerto Rican', substituting a crazy JPEG image called 'Don Mexico' to substitute for St. Guillen's picture, and other malicious work.

I still suspect this activity to be people related to The Falls bar, or else people sympathetic to the bar owner(s). I honestly believe that this malicious user has no respect for the dead or people in general. Certainly not for this young girl who died so horribly. I sent out detailed e-mails to a number of people who later communicated back with me, and I rounded off the number of hours that Imette was tortured to "17 Hours". In contrast, Romona Moore was tortured for days!

Returning to St. Guillen, as she was studying crimes of this nature, and she was becoming more disciplined in the forensic and police sciences, she knew during her ordeal exactly what was going to happen to her! She couldn't cry out; she couldn't move; she couldn't even say goodbye to her mother and family! That's unspeakable! That's evil!

The deaths of St. Guillen, Moore and Petro-Nixon were in many ways a failure of the justice system. In St. Guillen's case, there is no gravesite for her; the Imette St. Guillen Wikipedia reference is all that is left; her body was cremated in Boston, and her mother and family are still grieving. This is the price her family will be continually paying of loving and being loved. Except for images and text out on the internet, etc. her reference should be respected. St. Guillen's unfortunate story should be told with dignity, and hopefully people will become involved in Nightlife Legislation to help prevent senseless deaths such as hers from ever happening again.

My Response to the Malicious User - 'J.D.M.'

edit

I responded to the malicious user mentioned above and I used the term 'J.D.M.'. What does that term mean, you ask? My strong answer is "Judgment-Day-Material"! A person may 'get away' with murder down here; those who observe the earthly law system in its operations are starting to see failures. God, the God of the Bible, who IS Jesus Christ, doesn't allow anyone to get away with anything so consider this scripture in Hebrews 9:27:

"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment . . ."

Another thing that I will say about malicious people trying to change this page is something I had heard many years ago:

Those who sin, hate those they sin against.

So a murderer hates his victim, a criminal hates the law, and the Police; a predator hates its prey, even though it hunts and eats it. It's no wonder that in one verse of the Bible, God looks down at us and considers us 'beasts'.

2 Peter 2:10-13 (King James Version) "But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, selfwilled, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities. Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord. But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption; And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;"

The Price of Murder - The Second Death - There is no Reincarnation

edit

We die once, then we are immediately judged by the Lord! How can anyone stand in the awful presence of Eternal Justice? Certainly, it is NOT by the foolish reasoning that if our good deeds outweigh our bad deeds, then we're going to Heaven. How stupid this reasoning is! Let's say for example that you are keeping the law. You don't murder anyone for the first, say forty one years of your life. Then you break the law and do it. Do you honestly believe that any United States judge (as of this writing) is even going to hear the lame excuse: "But, your Honor! I haven't murdered anyone before." Doesn't that count for something?" The answer, of course, is that it doesn't! Good deeds never erase Sin! Past performance doesn't count for anything, either by our laws or God's laws.

Not too many people realize that there are Two Deaths mentioned in the Bible, as is shown in Revelation 21:8:

"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

If you're one of those people who believes in reincarnation, then understand that this and other scriptures directly attack that belief. It's false! Reincarnation came from the East. It was never taught in Judaism or Biblical Christianity, until recently by false teachers.

So, you who are reading this, make your choice for Jesus Christ now, before it is too late! As I look upon the people involved and responsible for the death of these young girls, I am seeing behavior, which I have identified and referred to as "Endtime Behavior". I used this term in a rather long e-mail to another christian, and he used this on his website. The link for that article is:

People who do murder, torture, etc. are "Judgment Day Material".

I am using strong language, not 'politically-correct' language, which I hate! Why? Because of Isaiah 58:1:

"Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins."

This applied to Israel in 'Old Testament' days. How much more, in these, the so-called 'church-age'!

Eleven Word You Don't Want To Hear

edit

A person who believes in good works alone is simply being self-righteous. Such cannot stand before the Lord on Judgment Day. You have to be blameless! Period! God cannot tolerate sin. The strongest language again comes from scripture, and I will add emphasis, from Matthew 7:22-26 (King James Version):

"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity".

No Purgatory

edit

Now there is no Purgatory; that's a myth based on Catholic tradition. Neither is there a 'Limbo' mentioned in the Bible. These concepts and traditions make God a liar; they declare that the finished work of Christ is insufficient.

There is, however, a Hell. When Jesus says those words to anyone not covered in His gift of Righteousness, which is the only way to stand before the Lord and have Eternal Life, then there is only one place that person will go! One person (I don't remember whom) made this approximate comment:

"... the revelation of Hell. Only Jesus Christ talked about it ... It's as if no human being could be trusted with the Revelation."

Reading further from the text quoted above:

"Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock."

Decaying Body versus a Resurrection Body

edit

In a sense, our 'house' is this decaying body that our Spirit lives in. It's temporary and will soon succumb to death. Now some people lust after Immortality; they may hope that science has the solution. Genetic research; cryogenic freezing - some people actually put faith in these things. However, when we look at the world-scene, we see exactly what Jesus predicted: earthquakes, false christs, iniquity abounding, a lack of love. Again: Matthew 24-25; Mark 13 and Luke 21. Read it and take heed!

Eternal Life, however, is something that is completely different. Christians are looking for a 'Resurrection Body' that never decays, never ages. Imagine a body that not only never ages, but never needs food to continue its existence. It is also indestructible, powerful, just as the angels' bodies (yes, they can have bodies). Now Jesus did eat in front of His disciples, shortly after His resurrection. He ate; let them feel His resurrection body; was able to come and go quickly and ascend into Heaven. In the Book of Revelation, we have an awesome description of Christ in His glorified appearance; and this appearance will be shared by believers after the Rapture!

Your Only Option - Jesus Christ

edit

So then, Jesus is the only 'Rock' that one can depend upon (not Peter)! 1 Corinthians 10:2-4 (King James Version) reads:

"And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;

And did all eat the same spiritual meat;

And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ."

Your life doesn't have to end in the Lake of Fire, as is written in Revelation 2:11:

"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death."

You can also read in John 6:37 (King James Version):

"All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out."

"In no wise cast out". This means that there is eternal security for the believer.

I can't say it better than my friend, Terry James:

King James Version versus Other Versions

edit

By the way, I'm using the King James Version for the above scripture quotes, but if you prefer not to read that translation, you can log onto:

and feel free to pick your own favorite translation to use. I personally prefer the New American Standard Bible translation, but this is copyrighted while KJV is public domain.

Let me paraphrase one christian that I have heard. If you accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior, realizing that there is nothing that you can do to escape the penalty of your sins (and we all Sin!) then, as this christian has said:

"If you accept Christ, die, and then discover that the Bible 'lied' and that there is no Eternity as described in Scripture, then you've lost nothing. But, if you reject Christ, die in your sins, but later stand before Christ and discover that the Bible was true, then you've lost everything!"

Eschatology

edit

Eschatology is the study of the Last Things. For the purposes of my User Page, it will be considered the study of Biblical Prophecy alone. I won't be discussing topics or people such as Edgar Cayce, Nostradamus, various psychics’ or even the Bible Code. Biblical Prophecy is being fulfilled all around us! Please check out:

And, of course, The Bible! I prefer the New American Standard Version. I also recommend as a starter on studying Biblical Prophecy the following order:

Matthew 24-25; Mark 13; Luke 21

From these stepping points, and from studying the books and authors I have mentioned below, I would recommend these books in the Bible as well:

The Book of Daniel

edit

Question: This may be asked pertaining to the following problem: The Angel, Gabriel, says to Daniel that the Book (of Daniel) is 'sealed until the time of the end'. So, how do you open a 'sealed book'?

Answer: You open a 'sealed book' with an 'unsealed book'. At the end of the book of Revelation, Jesus instructs the Apostle John to "seal not the sayings of this prophecy" - The Book of Revelation opens Daniel and Daniel modifies and adds to Revelation! The Book of Revelation - the proper title should really be: "The Revelation of Jesus Christ".

Proponents of the Pretribulation-Dispensational View of Biblical Prophecy

edit

Dave Hunt - An excellent teacher of eschatology, cults and other religions

J. Dwight Pentecost - Mr. Pentecost's tome, "Things to Come" is still standard reading (from what I understand) at Dallas Theological Seminary.

John Walvoord - writer of many excellent books such as "Armageddon, Oil and the Mideast Crisis" and other works, some of which have been combined.

Hal Lindsay - another Dallas Theological Seminary graduate and writer of good books.

Israel in Prophecy

edit

We are in the Last Days! God's timepiece, as others have called it, is Israel. It doesn't matter what the politically-correct news media says; it doesn't matter what the Calvinists or the Catholic Church says about who owns the land. God says in His Word that the land is His. Read Leviticus 25:23 (King James Version):

"The land shall not be sold for ever: for the land is mine, for ye are strangers and sojourners with me."

Indeed, there is a curse pronounced against those who would consider that Israel isn't the God of Israel's land, as is recorded in Jeremiah 12:14 (King James Version):

Thus saith the LORD against all mine evil neighbours, that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit; Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, and pluck out the house of Judah from among them.

Please also check this sub-webpage on the Berean Call:

http://www.thebereancall.org/node/5685

To quote Dave Hunt on 'the everlasting covenant':

"This covenant involved (1) the promised land and (2) the promised Messiah. Only in the Messiah could God fulfill His pledge to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob: "in thee [and in thy seed] shall all families [or nations] of the earth be blessed" (Gn 12:3; 22:18; 26:4; 28:14). As for the land, God's promise was clear: "For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever" (Gn 13:15); "...the LORD made a covenant with Abram,...Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river...Euphrates" (Gn 15:18); "...all the land of Canaan, for an everlasting possession..." (Gn 17:7-8). "

Basic Understanding of Prophecy

edit

A basic understanding is gained from first reading Matthew 24-25, Mark 13 and Luke 21. In the last chapter of the Book of Daniel, we read in Daniel, Chapter 12:

"But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased."

We have an incredible increase of knowledge, and anyone using a computer can quickly access much of that knowledge.

See my section below titled: "Books about biblical subjects which I have read and considered".

Schools of thought for biblical prophecy students

edit

Premillennial: This is ‘where the action is! Divided into three schools of thought:

  • Pretribulation: The Lord comes for his church before the Great Tribulation, the unbelievers left on the earth experience seven years of God’s Wrath, through which there is a multitude which comes out the Great Tribulation, as Revelation indicates, and then Christ returns visibly in power and great glory, resurrects the dead who “died in the Lord” and these who perished in the Great Tribulation will enter the Kingdom in their natural bodies.
  • Midtribulation: The Lord Jesus Christ returns in the middle of the seven year period to Rapture His Church but this contradicts other scriptures which say the Great Tribulation is God’s Wrath on the earth; why would Jesus return halfway through His Wrath to pick up His people? It makes more sense that a normal person would rescue their own first, then vent their rage.
  • Postribulation: The Lord Jesus Christ comes for His Church after the Great Tribulation. You can read some of these books in my listing and you, yourself may come to this conclusion. I won’t say that no one will suffer possible torture or martyrdom down here but certainly no Christian who is born-again will ever experience God’s Wrath. It’s contrary to the scriptures!
  • Partial-Rapture: The Lord Jesus Christ only comes for those Christians, whom some of subjective opinion feel, are those Christians who have not "back-slided", a term that is not in Scripture. This denies the biblical doctrine of Eternal Security of the believer taught in the book of Romans, and the clear statement of Christ: "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Postmillennial: Christ returns to earth after the 1000 years of peace to usher in Eternity. This doctrine makes no sense because it ignores the human condition of Sin and, according to Scripture, there can be no peace without Jesus Christ.

Amillennial: from St. Augustine’s book, the City of God; this doctrine says that the Bible shouldn’t be interpreted literally; we should just read it ‘spiritually’; this view leaves the reader interpreting everything from his or her own standpoint instead of investigating the clear language of scripture.

Photography

edit

I'm was adding my knowledge of 44 years to the Wikipedia reference for SLR and D-SLR cameras. It was thrilling for me in the past to watch the manufacturing progress with SLR cameras (from mechanical, non-metering instruments, to through-the-lens metering cameras pioneered with the first production camera, the Topcon RE Super (Pentax made the first prototype SLR with TTL, but Topcon beat them in implementing and bringing out a usable camera). In the United States, the Topcon was known as the 'Bessler Topcon Super D'. Later, Nikon manufactured a prism finder for its currently existing Nikon F, transforming that camera into a through-the-lens metering camera. Pentax, of course, came out with the Spotmatic and this camera was known in the United States as the 'Honeywell Pentax Spotmatic'.

Automation came with the advent of the Konica Autoreflex, which had the ability to change from a full-frame 35mm SLR camera to a half-frame 35mm SLR camera. This feature could be implemented with film already inserted into the camera, mid-roll of the film. A mixture of full-frame and half-frame images would result on the exposed film. The camera had the ability to automatically select the correct f/stop, which was referred to as 'shutter priority'. Other camera manufacturers, whose camera lenses lacked the internal pin feature needed to communicate with the metering system, chose 'aperture priority', where the camera automatically the correct shutter speed. For a number of years, a debate arose among photographers as to which metering system was superior: aperture priority or shutter priority. Aperture priority adherents claimed that the aperture would always be constant, which meant that the sharpest aperture would be set on the lens. Those favoring shutter priority automation claimed that allowing the camera to automatically select the correct shutter would, in certain situations, cause a perfectly exposed 'blur' because the shutter speed was too long (i.e., 1/30 instead of 1/125).

This situation lasted until the first 'programmed' SLR's were introduced first with the Minolta, then with some other manufacturers following by adapting their lenses for this multi-mode automation. Pentax switched from screw mount to its current 'K'-mount system, which has been modified over the years for autofocus and further automation. Yashica also switched from screw mount to a new bayonet mount and a new camera system aimed at professional photographers, resurrecting an old, legendary camera name known as 'Contax'. Their first SLR camera under this name was the Contax RTS, whose camera body was designed by the Porche design group. The camera featured aperture priority, extremely comfortable handling, and the use of Zeiss lenses, which lenses are still said to be the sharpest lenses manufactured, although an argument can easily be made by Leica for their Leitz camera lenses.

Later came autofocus. First, by Nikon introducing dedicated autofocus lenses that only worked on the Nikon F3 with a certain prism finder; then with the fully autofocus Minolta Maxxum cameras with a new lens mount. Nikon later modified their F-mount lenses to be autofocused, thus keeping backward compatibility with older Nikon camera bodies. Some manufacturers like Olympus, however, with its OM system, never adopted autofocus into their lenses but sold their cameras to a niche market of photographers who valued its compact size, compact lenses and ease of use. Still, some manufacturers such as Leica with the R8 have not implemented autofocus in their 35mm SLR cameras. These cameras are purchased by some users who scorn autofocus and prefer to focus manually, or professional photographers who prefer the use of Leitz lenses for their sharpness and quality.

We now have DSLR's and I'm very pleased that Nikon has finally introduced "full-frame" (i.e., 24mm x 36mm CMOS Sensor) D-SLR cameras, such as the D3 and the D700. I also like Canon's new EOS 5D Mark II. I expect these cameras to become the standard very soon and all but replacing DSLR's with APS size (16mm x 24mm) sensors.
