YOU ARE NOW ON

THE CUTTING EDGE

July/August 2000, Lying With Pixels, by Ivan Amato, Technology Review: MIT's Magazine of Innovation , http://www.techreview.com/articles/july00/amato.htm

"... the stage is set for deception to move the world in new ways." [Emphasis added]

This sentence by Ivan Amato is one of the keys to understanding the scenario against which we are warning you now; the Illuminati possesses the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen, and is preparing to use this technology in order to successfully stage their Superman, whom we know as Antichrist.

However, just before the Antichrist is due to arise, we believe it likely the Illuminati will similarly use this technology to divide and conquer the only enemy they fear -- the Born Again Christian.  Since their Guiding Spirits have told them the Rapture of the Church is a reality [Read NEWS1052 for full details], and since they know the Christians are awaiting the Rapture with the greatest of anticipation, what better way to divide, conquer, and discourage the Christian than to stage a fake Rapture?  Just think of your reaction if you heard exhaustive news reports that Christians all over the world had been raptured, and you had missed it?  How low would your heart sink?

We postulated this thesis in NEWS1375, but let us now list some of the ingredients a fake Rapture probably will contain:

1.  The disappearance of countless numbers of people worldwide.

2.  Some people would have to testify that they were talking to a person who suddenly disappeared

3.  News reports must contain eyewitness accounts of these disappearances

4.  The disappearances of these people must have occurred in the "Twinkling of An Eye", just as Scripture foretold.

5.  People might even be depicted arising out of coffins, just a Paul foretold in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, specifically in verse 16.

Can leading-edge modern technology insert people into a picture, and more importantly, can it make them disappear so quickly the eye can hardly see the actual disappearance?  Let us return to our feature articles about technologically making people seemingly disappear:

"Deleting people or objects from live video, or inserting prerecorded people or objects into live scenes, is only the beginning of the deceptions becoming possible."  There we have the nub of the problem solved; once you understand the science behind this new technique of unprecedented deception, you will come right back to this statement:

"Deleting people or objects ... inserting prerecorded people or objects into live scenes ..." 

There you have the stark facts; MIT's Technology Magazine is telling us that people can be removed or inserted into live scenes.  This means that a scene being recorded "LIVE" can have people artificially deleted [removed] or inserted, with no one being the wiser.  In NEWS1375, referenced above, we postulated that one of the techniques the Illuminati would use to convince Christians that they had been left behind in a Rapture would be a prerecorded short movie in which the entire scenario were shot as if it were a live newscast.  TV movies have been produced and aired on this premise just a few years ago, and were so effective that a disclaimer came on the screen at the beginning and end of the show, and after each commercial, telling the viewer that the action being depicted was not a real live newscast; that is how effective these shows were.  I still believe this format might be part of the total Fake Rapture scenario.

However, we are talking about a lot more than such a prerecorded show; we are talking about faking a live broadcast feed, presumably without the technician manning the camera knowing anything about the deception.  How is this possible?  Maybe we should start at the beginning.

REMOVING KATERINA WITT FROM A TAPE OF HER PERFORMANCE

"In the clip, Witt gracefully plies the ice for about 20 seconds. Then came what is perhaps one of the most unusual sports replays ever seen. The background was the same, the camera movements were the same. In fact, the image was identical to the original in all ways except for a rather important one: Witt had disappeared, along with all signs of her, such as shadows or plumes of ice flying from her skates. In their place was exactly what you would expect if Witt had never been there to begin with—the ice, the walls of the rink and the crowd."  [July/August 2000, Vanishing Act, Technology Review: MIT's Magazine of Innovation, . When the attendees of this Geopolitical Conference on the Pros and Cons of Satellite Imagery saw Katerina Witt disappear completely from successive frames of the video tape, until she was completely invisible, they were stunned into silence.  How could this type of technical wizardry be possible?

"The procedure for offing [deleting] people from a live video stream goes something like this. The first step is to align successive video frames, using fast computational techniques that detect and reorient patterns of pixels in successive frames. The computer stitches together the sequence of aligned frames into a mosaic that is constantly rebuilt as the computer receives new frames. In the case of skater Katarina Witt, the mosaics store information about what is behind her as she moves. While this is going on, fast frame-to-frame comparisons based on a Sarnoff-grown computational technique called "pyramid processing" enable the system to isolate and track objects moving in the foreground.

"The key to pyramid processing is the succession of lower resolution versions of each frame it produces. Rather than having to compare full sets of pixels to detect frame-to-frame differences, such as Witt moving a few inches on the ice, the computer can rely on the reduced pixel sets. That greatly simplifies calculations, such as ones that track patterns of pixels that travel together through sequences of frames.

"To erase Witt, the system summons the piece of the mosaicked background and inserts those pixels wherever the foreground pixel patterns change. By detecting which sets of pixels move with respect to one another and which sets remain relatively fixed, pyramid processing computers can track moving objects against stationary backgrounds. Since these calculations are doable in less than the thirtieth of a second between frames, there’s time to replace moving foreground pixels with background pixels. Do that and you can make a skater—or anything else—vanish." [Ibid., Emphasis added]

Therefore, this unbelievably sophisticated computer program so quickly determines exactly the foreground and immediate background images around Katerina, and then begins to fill in her image with those matching pixels, until Katerina is suddenly gone!  These calculations can be performed in less than one-thirtieth of one second, faster than the Twinkling of An Eye! Since the calculations are performed in less than the time it takes to go from one frame to another [one-thirtieth of a second] a person really in a picture can disappear before their picture is ever shown!  Live feeds can thus be altered to make people disappear!

But, there is more mind-boggling technology reported in these two articles that makes a planned alteration of live footage even more probable.  Stand by for news!

"So what’s the big deal, you ask. After all, Stalin’s staff routinely airbrushed persona non grata out of photos more than a half-century ago. And Woody Allen ushered a variation on reality morphing into the movies 17 years ago with Zelig, in which he inserted himself next to Adolf Hitler and Babe Ruth. In films such as Forrest Gump and Wag the Dog , reality twisting has become commonplace."

"What sets the Witt demo apart—way apart—is that the technology used to "virtually delete" the skater can now be applied in real time, live, even as a camera records a scene and instantly broadcasts it to viewers. In the fraction of a second between video frames, any person or object moving in the foreground can be edited out, and objects that aren’t there can be edited in and made to look real. 'Pixel plasticity,' Livingston calls it. The implication for those at the satellite imagery conference was sobering: Pictures from orbit may not necessarily be what the satellite’s electronic camera actually recorded." [Ibid.] 

This information is simply and completely mind-boggling; pictures taken by satellite and beamed to an earth station at the speed of light may NOT be what we see from the live feed?  "In the fraction of a second, between video frames, ANY person ... can be edited out, and objects that aren't there can be edited in and made to look real".  In the "Twinkling of An Eye", all this editing in and out can be accomplished, with very few people in the world any the wiser.

Truly, people can be made to appear and disappear in any fashion the Hollywood producer envisions.  Certainly, people can be made to disappear; other people can be depicted arising out of coffins. The whole world can be set abuzz by this Fake Rapture, thus throwing truly Born Again Christians into absolute turmoil.  For the short time from this Fake Rapture, to the actual appearance of Antichrist, many true Christians will be in such turmoil that they will not be any formidable foe of the Illuminati when Antichrist really does appear.

This turmoil will likely continue within the Christian community until the Real Rapture occurs, sometime before the Antichrist is accepted by the Jewish religious scholars, an event that will enable him to "confirm the covenant", thus beginning the 7-Year Tribulation [Daniel 9:27].  Contrary to what you may believe, the 7-Year Tribulation Period begins with this "confirming of the covenant", not with the appearance of Antichrist and not with any other event. 

Sometime prior to this confirmation of the covenant, the true Rapture will occur.  However, before that "blessed hope", tens of millions of Christians will likely be thrown in turmoil and confusion, and will be divided mightily, making them a far less formidable foe for the actual appearance of Antichrist. 

Imagine how you will feel if a really convincing Fake Rapture occurred?  If for even a few moments, your heart will be in your socks, and turmoil will be racing through your heart.  Your Saving Faith will be tested like nothing could ever test it.  Many Christians weak in the faith will even have more problems coping with it, and the Illuminati probably is hoping many will lose their faith in that brief moment of time.

Are you spiritually ready? Is your family? Are you adequately protecting your loved ones? This is the reason for this ministry, to enable you to first understand the peril facing you, and then help you develop strategies to warn and protect your loved ones. Once you have been thoroughly trained, you can also use your knowledge as a means to open the door of discussion with an unsaved person. I have been able to use it many times, and have seen people come to Jesus Christ as a result. These perilous times are also a time when we can reach many souls for Jesus Christ, making an eternal difference.
