The US National Debt Clock | Episodes 2-9
What's The Story?
Storytelling is considered a skillset or an art. If you have ever sat around a dark campfire with a good storyteller, you know what we mean. Oftentimes, salespeople are hired for one reason - they are good storytellers. Obviously, writers do just that - we tell stories. Simply put, a storyteller is a person who tells stories.
So what’s the story with the US National Debt Clock? Obscure and utterly mundane entities do NOT normally tell stories. However, it appears that the US National Debt Clock has some sort of story to tell. It seems to be “tooting its horn” on a regular basis - Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings to be exact. What exactly is the story being told and are Americans at all interested in listening?
Our team put out this introductory post on the US National Debt Clock detailing the first episode or two in what appears to be an exciting new evening TV series.
This Biblical reference was the first message that appeared on the US National Debt Clock on or around 10/1/23. This was apparently the “premier” of the US debt clock, as if it were kicking off its fall season of television. Episodes 2-9 have since followed.
A few days after our team shared our post on 10/5 with our subscribers scattered across The Fruited Plain, the US National Debt Clock published episode 4.
On October 8, this Biblical reference from Revelation 1 appeared.
Reading from Revelation 1:9-11, we find John’s vision of Christ.
I, John, your brother and companion in the suffering and kingdom and patient endurance that are ours in Jesus, was on the island of Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. On the Lord’s Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet, which said: “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.” Revelation 1:9-11 (NIV)
The island of Patmos is a beautiful place so pause from your busy day and take a moment to step into the view that John likely had as he wrote these well-known verses of the Bible - the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Reading from just a few verses earlier in Revelation 1:8, we find these words about Alpha and Omega, the two symbols found on the lower corners of the imagery.
I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8 (NIV)
Translation: Jesus Christ is the beginning and the end.
The imagery also clearly displays 7 white angels and 7 lit candles or lamps.
It is important to understand that the Book of Revelation uses picture language in the original Greek texts, and it uses the number 7 quite often to emphasize completeness. In the first few verses of Revelation 1, the number 7 appears twice.
To the seven churches in the province of Asia: Grace and peace to you from him who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits[a] before his throne, and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Revelation 1:4-5 (NIV)
Some social media feeds suggested that the debt clock could be referring to the 7 archangels.
It is hard to really “know” or discern what the imagery of the 7 angels or 7 lamps might mean. It is simply good to be aware that these details were included.
Taking a closer look at the imagery found on the US National Debt Clock message from 10/8/23, the background also displays this old map of Jerusalem.
A handsome “historical” map of ancient Jerusalem based on the work of Juan Bautista Villalpando, and issued in an early eighteenth century Dutch Bible. In the center is laid out a bird’s eye view of the city, with the major buildings clearly drawn and numbered to an identifying key in the upper left. Surrounding the main map are vignette scenes related to the ancient city, including a view of the facade of the Temple of Solomon, the Tabernacle, the Ark, and other Judaic subjects. Attractive and historically interesting for the insights it offers into the understanding of the Holy Land current in the early eighteenth century in Europe.
Do you find the timing to be odd that this US National Debt Clock is telling stories with old maps of Jerusalem while what appears to be WWIII breaking out in Israel simultaneously? What is the story being told here? And who is telling this story?
It might be wise to pause for several days before you take up sides on the “war” in Israel as there appears to be quite a story playing out.
The US National Debt Clock continued telling its story airing episode 5 on 10/10/23.
A Dollar to Silver Ratio graph is shown going back to 1913, the year the Federal Reserve came into existence. $0-2022? Silver pricing reset? Hmmmm.
The story continued its focus on SILVER with episode 6 airing on 10/12/23.
We are not sure what the reference to Thomas X might be, but we are aware that an Ojibwe Hip Hop artist from Minnesota goes by that name. Will work for gold or silver, but not the fiat currency?
The story continued in episode 7 on 10/15 with these two posts about the money supply and Andrew Jackson. $0-2022 was detailed a 2nd time.
Andrew Jackson, was the 7th President of the United States who hated debt. What can we learn from this? It is abundantly clear that whoever is airing these US debt clock episodes has quite the sense of humor as the irony of Andrew Jackson making a statement from the US debt clock is palpable.
Andrew Jackson was at war with the banks, dating all the way back to 1834.
So what do you think about all this? Are you able to discern what the US National Debt Clock is trying to tell us? And why is the forecast for US National Debt in 2024 cited to be 3-4 trillion less than it is already now, but rising by 12 trillion from 2024-2028?
What exactly are “we the people” supposed to be learning from the US National Debt Clock storytelling? And how many episodes will air on this channel when all is said and done - 17 maybe?
~ Episodes 1-3 made it clear that it is going to be Biblical and that a righteous anger will be on display.
~ Episodes 4-6 made it incredibly clear that there is a financial piece to this story and gold and silver play a leading role. It also shined the spotlight on an archived map of Jerusalem.
~ Episodes 7-9 appear to be suggesting that someone exchanged gold for worthless paper under the guise of “safekeeping.”
Who are the Knights Templar? Does this take us right back to Jerusalem?
The Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon, mainly known as the Knights Templar, was a military order of the Catholic faith, and one of the wealthiest and most popular military orders in Western Christianity. They were founded c. 1119, headquartered on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, and existed for nearly two centuries during the Middle Ages.
Episode 9 went on to include this post on 10/19/23, starring Uncle Sam and some financial imagery of what appears to be a 2023 American Eagle one ounce silver bullion.
Under that silver coin, 2 red pills are crossed off by what appears to be a similar shape of half of the new X (Twitter) logo. This image also shows a $20 dollar bill with a red X crossing out the United States Federal Reserve System logo. A green and red switch appeared at the bottom. Is something about to start and stop? Green means go, red means stop. It looks like the first of 7 signals has been given.
Coincidentally, it is good to note that Israel was given the green light to proceed into Gaza on this same day (10/19/23) and the White House exterior lights were turned red. Are these just extremely odd coincidences? As always, no one knows. Let’s just say that it certainly looks like a “switch” was just flipped “on.”
Stay tuned - the next episodes for the US debt clock, and really the USA, are being finalized and should be ready for airing sooner than you know.
