alot of things did exsist then didn't exist to that world and now exist or will again.. a sea not in that configuration you see it .. it was an eye. it will be an eye.How so ?
The sea existed when John wrote "is not now", a phrase which has to refer to something that didn't exist in his day. Or at least so I read it.
I think these clans is how he sees the world... then does it really matter how men see it? where or how they draw their lines in the dirt and make their rules ?The UN's division of the world into nearly 200 nations is certainly not in harmony with the Biblical listing of 70 nations.
However it is the spiritual thrones and dominions that rule over these nations that are in many ways the true cause of the wars and geopolitical developments we have historically seen and see today.
From one of BTH's articles on the Biblical Nations:
Here we see a list of the descendants of Noah's sons, which not coincidentally totals to 70:
The idea that the nations were distributed to a group of powerful spirit beings who became their "gods" was quite well known and widely accepted in the ancient world. This view is also found in the Bible:
DEUTERONOMY 32:7 Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you. 8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when He divided mankind, He fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God. 9 But the LORD's portion is His people, Jacob His allotted heritage. (ESV)
Most English translations follow the Hebrew Masoretic Text of verse 8, which substitutes "sons of Israel" for "sons of God." However, the 3rd-century BCE Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures known as the Septuagint (LXX) contradicts the Masoretic Text:
DEUTERONOMY 32:7 Remember the days of old, consider the years for past ages: ask thy father, and he shall relate to thee, thine elders, and they shall tell thee. 8 When the Most High divided the nations, when He separated the sons of Adam, He set the bounds of the nations according to the number of the angels of God. 9 And His people Jacob became the portion of the Lord, Israel was the line of His inheritance. (Brenton's LXX)

Canaan... Promised land... Israel.nice..
or Canaan = Egyptians ( was a son of canaan) with it's strange gods and usurping of others from the start and it's slavery.
Every organization perform activities in accordance to their calendar. I am not familiar enough with freemasons to know what they see, think or will do regarding this time but I do know human nature will be that they will behave a certain way because of it. What it will be I do not know.According to your link anno lucis is just a freemason calendar system that adds 4000 years to the current Gregorian calendar. What exactly is the significance of that, relative to this September ?
Maybe it has to do with it name Anno Lucis which means "in the Year of light [Lucifer]"According to your link anno lucis is just a freemason calendar system that adds 4000 years to the current Gregorian calendar. What exactly is the significance of that, relative to this September ?

or some stellar activity like in bygone years...
In the year 4000 the star Vela went supernova, and for months, if you were located near in the lattitudes of Egypt, you would have seen two suns.
The Vela explosion effectively created a "year of Light" by blazing away and preventing any night for most of the year 4000. The Isis priests apparently took this as a sign for a new era being born and started their calendar accordingly http://reality101blog.blogspot.com/2010/11/anno-lucis-year-of-light.html

the eye in the hand , was the configuration of EYElands.
see Serpent mound. an eye being crushed.
It is only significant if they attach significance to it from the upper levels like the 33rd. Passed down, it is acted upon. It will only be noted by those in the know. http://beforeitsnews.com/blogging-c...t-is-coming-september-22-28-2015-2510138.htmlEVERY year in Freemason calendar is called year of light, just like every year in Western calendar is called year of the Lord (anno domini). It's not one specific year.
There is no connection to September or 2015 in the Freemason calendar, based on what you've said so far. For them, 2015 is the 6015th year of light. It came after the 6014th year of light, and will be followed by the 6016th year of light, or whatever. Nothing remarkable.
Freemasons are like the Huns or Thracians. A thing of the past, nothing to worry about today.

It isn't about whether they are correct, whether they have a different calendar, or whether they are a total distraction. It is about activities going on around the world within different groups of people at this time.. It is an accumulation of events. Which one is significant?? which one plays the big role?? it is more important to know that there is a lot of people looking at this time of the year for various reason and will have various reactions to the events, those around them, and what influence they have upon the politics and religious orders of our day.
John received in the first century this message:
The beast, which you saw, once was, now (1st century) is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the creation of the world will be astonished when they see the beast, because it once was, now (1st century) is not, and yet will come.
(Rev. 17:8)
And:
The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits, and they are seven kings; five have fallen, one is (now in the 1st century), the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while. The beast which was and is not, is himself also an eighth and is one of the seven, and he goes to destruction. (Rev. 17:9-11)
In 17:8, describing the beast, mention is twice made of the following set:
1. The beast was,
2. is not now,
3. and will be.
In 17:10, describing seven kings/mountains/heads, mention is made of the following separate set:
1. Five kings/mountains/heads that have fallen
2. One king that exists
3. One king that has not yet come.
So as we can plainly see, these two sets are actually the reverse of each other.
In the first set, the middle part is absent.
In the second set, the middle part is present.
In 17:11, the beast from the first set is entangled with the second set by saying "he is an eighth, but one of the seven."
Regarding the first set, my teacher taugth me:
The fallen angel Azazel was once free, but is currently restrained in the abyss, (as the Revelation specifies), but will be allowed to come out of the abyss. Confer Rev. 9:11 and see the book of Enoch.
Here's what my teacher taught me regarding the second set:
In the Bible, a mountain figuratively represents a kingdom or the ruler of that kingdom. The 7 mountains and the 7 kings referred to in Revelation 17:9-10 are one and the same. This beast is in the same form as Satan; the heads represent earthly kingdoms that Satan has (or will) rule over.
At the time John was receiving this vision (c. 95 CE), the angel tells him that 5 of the kingdoms represented by the heads of the beast had fallen, one head currently existed, and the other had not yet appeared. The angel is giving John (and us) a time sensitive clue. Five of the symbolic heads of the beast had already lost the power they once possessed. Those 5 were:
(1) Egypt
(2) Assyria
(3) Babylon
(4) Medo-Persia, and
(5) Greece
Rome was the 6th kingdom, the one in power at the time the Apocalypse was written.
Therefore, there remains another kingdom, the 7th, left to come. This is the one that "has not yet come" from the second set.
The 7th Satanic kingdom will apparently have two phases, or be followed by an eighth Satanic kingdom, judging by 17:11.
This is why scripture TWICE says that Abaddon will go to his destruction: becuase he will be defeated twice, as was the case with Nimrod. First Nimrod was defeated by having the kingdom of Babel taken away from him. Later he was defeated by having the kingdom of Assyria taken from him. Similarly, scripture records Satan being defeated (at least) twice: Rev. 12:9 and Rev. 20:10.
By the way, the term "destruction" in Greek is apoleian, a variant of which is Apollion. So in English it would indicate the Destroyer goes to Destruction. He will reap as he sows.
I am not jumping all over the protracted view of the end-times... as I see them being "rapid" and "cut short" for the "elect's sake".
