Fulfillment: October 27+: Paris Riots

More than 10 days of riots in Paris have left 2000 cars burned and nerves on edge across much of the country. Rome is falling again as France looses chariot wheels. A frightful prophetic fulfillment.

Background

The prophetic stories going on now center on an historical replay, the fall of ancient Rome, and related prophetic stories which include Moses as he lead the ancient Israelites out of Egypt. Specifically, it was the drowning of Pharaoh's army, in the Red Sea, which is what the fall of Rome was has been expected in the news for weeks.

Fulfillment

Fulfillment started simple enough with the electrocution deaths of 2 youths near Paris, but this event, after more than 10 days, has become a national problem for France. It looks like 2000 automobiles have been burned so far around France, with grocery stores, schools and post offices as related targets.

Instead of calming the situation, the French political machine has inflamed the immigrant populations of France which has caused far more trouble than it might have otherwise.

Timing

The exact timing of the key prophetic story for Paris was at sunrise in Jerusalem on the morning of October 28, 2005. The following is the text.

(For those with printed charts see pages 155 and 156.)

Sunrise in Jerusalem was a few hours before sunrise in France and the electrocution deaths of the youths were after sunset in Paris the evening before. This is a match to within hours. Perhaps a political decision was made behind the scenes after the deaths of the youths that night that caused the Islamics in France to begin their first full scale western uprising.

It began slowly, without much international coverage, which caused the identification of this fulfillment to be slow. It did, though, follow the prophetic story quite closely.

It has taken more than a week for the "me-too" copies of these arson based attacks to break out into other French cities. It has also spilled across the border to nations like Belgium and there is risk of similar uprisings in other places across Europe.

Seas

The key term in this story from Moses is the way the Egyptians drowned in the seas by the act of their chariot wheels coming off.

Of course "Chariots" from this prophetic story are now "Cars" simply the updated modern form.

The seas are biblical for "peoples" especially peoples outside of any group that is the target of a prophetic word.

In this instance we're looking for a prophetic replay of the fall of a capital, like Rome, and that fulfillment is coming out of Paris, a reasonable substitute.

We're also looking for outsiders, a foreign army or immigrants, to be the means by which the government falls. In ancient Rome's case this was by land invasions from the north. In Paris' case it through a hostile immigrant community.

In both cases the prophetic fulfillment should be the same, the fall of the sitting government, which I would expect to have happen here too, though the risk is a wider civil war in other countries in Europe. (Rome, of course is all of Europe, not just Italy in history nor Paris now.) The prophetic stories, though, do not clearly spell out the magnitude of the event. If the burning stopped tonight it would still be a fine fulfillment.

Parallels to Concorde

This headline series is a strange parallel to the Concorde crash outside Paris in the summer of 2000. In both cases it is French transportation technology that has gone up in flames.

The term "chariot" perhaps should be applied to planes as well.
