In the Quran it is mentionned:[2:248] Their prophet said to them, "The sign of his kingship is that the Ark of the Covenant will be restored to you, bringing assurances from your Lord, and relics left by the people of Moses and the people of Aaron. It will be carried by the angels. This should be a convincing sign for you, if you are really believers."It is in reference of the story of Saul, him being chosen by God to be King and this same history is narrated in the Bible's Book of I Samuel, Ch. 9 and 10.

Register or LoginTS said in the update that muslims were also waiting for the Ark to be discovered by "Mahdi", I just wanted to say that "Mahdi" is not mentionned in the Quran so I take this information with grand reserve."On 25 June 2009, the patriarch of the Orthodox Church of Ethiopia, Abuna Paulos, said he would announce to the world the next day the unveiling of the Ark of the Covenant, which he said had been kept safe and secure in a church in Axum, Ethiopia. The following day, on 26 June 2009, the patriarch announced that he would not unveil the Ark after all, but that instead he could attest to its current status."You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginI don't understand. If it has really been discovered why decide to keep it secret after having thrown the information that an announcement would be made about it ? And the date of 25 June 2009 is very intriguing. What a "coincidence" ! When you begin to search for the Ark you realize that it can be everywhere in the world, so many theories are on the internet that I really don't know what to think about it anymore.TS also said "When the time is right, there will be further information about the Ark of the Covenant." I'm impatient to know more about it, this subject is very interesting and TS seems to know more.
I agree with you that it is an interesting coincidence that they would announce the revealing of the ark of covanent in Ethiopia, on the day that Michael supposedly died, and then change their minds. A revealing of the start of the hoax actually!! It has certainly been true with this whole MJ investigation that whatever aspect you look deeper into, it only raises more questions than when you started. :? You are not allowed to view links.

Register or Login This is a thorough discussion on why Jesus is Michael the Archangel (not JW), which I recommend reading!Here are the verses that talk about Satan being the cheribim that covers ( as in covers the ark). Ezekiel 28:14, 16:"Thou [art] the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee [so]: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.""By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire."There are so many claims on where the ark is, if you've checked out sites. I lean towards Ethiopia because it is main African country with Hebrew Israelites in it, and in the book of Maccabees it says Jeremiah hid the ark in a cave after the temple was destroyed. Anyways, if Satan fell from his high position, then perhaps it has to do with why the ark lost its importance after the destruction of Solomon's temple. The temple and the ark never regained their prominence as to being the place where God resided. I believe that's because it was only a picture to start with. The whole Bible is one big story, and complex series of pictures, illustration, parables for all mankind, in layers upon layers of truths and mysteries. You mentioned already, that in the New Testament the ark is only written of as residing in heaven. The Bible says God created all things, and says God created evil. I believe God created Satan for the role of adversary, villian if you will. After the violent end of the story, all will be restored, at the consumation of all things.On another note, you mentioned the Lion of Judah, and Judah is one of the 12 tribes of Israel, but the specific brother with the lineage to Jesus. Here's Michael with the 777 shirt, the crown and lion (of Judah?).[attachment=1:1xn5o8xo]29cuqvq[1].jpg[/attachment:1xn5o8xo]
