Halloween is Bible Prophecy!

(Feast of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanna, Samhain, etc.)

Silver Stock Report

by Jason Hommel, October 30th, 2011

The resurrection is everything!  If God can bring the dead back to life, how much more easily can he heal broken hearts, and raise the spiritually dead back into communion with Him?  Even my little boy Jude, age 3, has told me that he can pray to God, who he knows is his Father in heaven, who can help him not be sad anymore!

Before you react in knee-jerk fashion, and accuse me without cause, and without reading, and claim that "Halloween is Pagan" (Pagan meaning gentile, or "of the nations", or heathen, polytheistic, non religious, or uncivilized), please read all of the following research, which I have conducted into this topic over 11 years.

I believe Halloween is a tradition of the Lost Tribes of Israel, specifically, the Feast of Trumpets and/or Rosh Hashanna, and is a prophetic rehearsal of the Christian resurrection of the dead.

The door is a symbol of Jesus, and the candy is a symbol of heaven.

I have identified 9 comparisons between Halloween and the Biblical Feast of the Lord, the Feast of Trumpets.  Bear with me, the proof is all in this article.  Last year, when I sent out this article, good meaning Christians accused me, "learn not the way of the heathen".  Excuse me, we all know the symbols of Halloween here in America, and I'm using them to teach about the symbols and ways of the Lord now.

I believe the meaning of 4 key Halloween symbols, are as follows:

The door is a symbol of Jesus.
The candy is a symbol of heaven.
The dressing up as skeletons, zombies, and ghouls are a symbol of those who will be resurrected.
The jack-o-lanterns, pumpkins carved out with a candle light in them, are a symbol of the dead being filled with the light of the Holy Spirit.

It's called Halloween, because it's the Hallowed Eve, or "Holy Evening".  The word "Hallowed" is a Biblical word, as in "Hallowed be thy name," from the Lord's prayer.

It's practiced on the evening of the last day of the month, because in the Bible, the day begins at dusk.  "And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day." from Genesis 1.

The Biblical Feast of Trumpets, or Rosh Hashanna, begins on the first day of the seventh month, on the new moon.  Num 29:1, Lev 23:24

Rosh Hashanna is celebrated by Jews today, and usually falls in mid September, on the day of the new moon.  The new moon is always the start of the month, on the Hebrew Lunar calendar.  Therefore, every new month really begins on the evening, at dusk, of the last day of the month.

Halloween starts on the evening, dusk, on the Gregorian Calendar, on October 31st, which is when the kids go out door to door to get candy.

I believe this festival was practiced, in some related form, by the Ten Lost tribes of Israel who were exiled 720 years before Christ.  Thus, they likely do not know who they are, nor do they even know the prophetic Christian symbology of the feast, since they did not yet have the New Testament to explain the symbols when they were exiled.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Lost_Tribes

Halloween has many similarities to the Biblical Feast of Trumpets, which, today, is called Rosh Hashanna, and is practiced by the Ashkenazi Jews, who are thought to be of the two southern tribes of Israel, Judah, with whom the Northern tribes had a dispute prior to exile.

Christian missionaries have began noting the similarities between Halloween and the Biblical Feast for centuries.

When I first started my research ten years ago, wikipedia did not even exist; so I'm getting excited by what I'm learning today.

The wikipedia article on Rosh Hashanna does not teach all of the Biblical symbols of the Biblical Feast of the Lord, because the Jews today still reject Jesus, and thus, reject the teachings of the New Testament, which greatly aid in the understanding of the prophetic themes of the Feast of Trumpets.

Christians today mostly don't know about these themes either, because they mostly reject the law, and reject things that are considered "Jewish", such as the Feasts of the Lord.

Furthermore, most Christians condemn Halloween as a pagan holiday that calls undue attention to the dead, somehow forgetting that the essence of Christianity is the resurrection of the dead.

Most Biblical researchers don't know about these things either, because the Bible does not say very much about how to celebrate the Feast of Trumpets, nor does it explicitly say much about the meaning of the symbols.

But here are a few scriptures that I've gathered together that do explain a few themes about this Feast of the Lord.

http://bibleprophesy.org/feastoftrumpets.htm

Here are a few studies on the Feast of Trumpets, and a bit of an introductory summary:

http://bibleprophesy.org/introtrumpets.htm

One of the themes of the Feast of Trumpets is the Wedding; as the Church is married to Jesus.  So, here are my studies on the Marriage in Scripture, as it relates to the prophecy of the rapture.

http://bibleprophesy.org/introwedding.htm

The wedding or marriage as a theme is something that is not seemingly related, or not a part of it, if you simply study the Jewish Rosh Hashanna.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosh_Hashanah

(Even American Wedding Traditions have a similar theme of going through the door to heaven: The Husband carries the new Bride through the door, across the threshhold, into their hew "heavenly" life together.)

Revelation 4:1 After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”

The wedding does not appear to be a key theme of Halloween.  However, in Mexico, among the prostitutes and drug dealers, there is a celebration called the "day of the Dead".  They dress up a skeleton as a bride, with a lantern, and eat candy skulls.

The picture of five wise virgins and five foolish brides with lanterns is shown in Matthew 25:1-13.  I have a study on why that parable is a picture of the rapture, here:

http://bibleprophesy.org/tenvirgins.htm

Why are the so-called "ungodly" people in Mexico observing this holiday?  Well, those are the kinds of people God often speaks to, and calls to him.

Jesus said to the religious leaders of his day, "tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you." Matthew 21:31-32.

1 Corinthians 1:26-29
 26 For consider your calling, brothers: not many of you were wise according to worldly standards, not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, 29 so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.

Let's examine the main themes of Halloween, starting with candy.

Candy is associated with the celebration of the Feast of Trumpets, as shown by Nehemiah 8:1-10:  10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, --"

I wonder, how did Nehemiah know that about sweets, when the Bible never directly says to eat sweets on this day?  The answer must be tradition.

Candy apples are a tradition of both Halloween and Rosh Hashanna.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween#Foods

"Because the holiday comes in the wake of the annual apple harvest, candy apples (known as toffee apples outside North America), caramel or taffy apples are common Halloween treats made by rolling whole apples in a sticky sugar syrup, sometimes followed by rolling them in nuts."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosh_Hashanna#Symbolic_foods

"Symbolic foods

Rosh Hashanah table set with symbolic foods Rosh Hashanah meals usually include apples and honey, to symbolize a sweet new year."

Nehemiah wasn't the only man in the Bible to observe this feast.

The Bible says that Joseph in Egypt made it a decree to celebrate this day.  That was about 400 years before Moses gave the law in Numbers and Leviticus.  Interestingly, it does not say this in Genesis, but in the Psalms!

Pss 81:3 Blow the trumpet at the new moon, at the full moon, on our feast day.
Pss 81:4 For it is a statute for Israel, an ordinance of the God of Jacob.
Pss 81:5 He made it a decree in Joseph, when he went out over the land of Egypt. I hear a voice I had not known:

Many Biblical practices and traditions pre-date the law of Moses. Animal sacrifice and marriage do, too.

Some people think Jesus was against traditions.  But Jesus said, "Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye."

In other words, if traditions that invalidate the word of God are bad, then the corollary of that would be that traditions that validate the word of God, such as Halloween and the Feasts of the Lord, such as the Feast of Trumpets, would be good!

What's the next symbol of Halloween, the door?

Jesus is the door.  John 10:9 "I am the door"

On the new moon (the start of the month, which is when the Feast of Trumpets falls on), every month, at the start of the month, the door of the temple is to be opened.

Ezek 46:1 "Thus says the Lord GOD: The gate of the inner court that faces east shall be shut on the six working days; but on the Sabbath day it shall be opened and on the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

The door is also a symbol in the parable of the virgins in Matt 25:1-13, and in Revelation 3-4, key rapture verses.

Revelation 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

To Philadelphia:
Rev 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
Rev 3:10 Because you have kept my word of patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial which is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell upon the earth.

Next Halloween symbol, the skeletons.  Dry bones are mentioned also in Ezekiel as a starting point of the resurrection in Ezekiel 37:1-11.  The passage reads as if it is a scene right out of a modern zombie movie.

Ezekiel 37

The Valley of Dry Bones

 1 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. 2 He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry. 3 He asked me, "Son of man, can these bones live?"
      I said, "O Sovereign LORD, you alone know."
 4 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to these bones and say to them, 'Dry bones, hear the word of the LORD! 5 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. 6 I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the LORD.' "

 7 So I prophesied as I was commanded. And as I was prophesying, there was a noise, a rattling sound, and the bones came together, bone to bone. 8 I looked, and tendons and flesh appeared on them and skin covered them, but there was no breath in them.

 9 Then he said to me, "Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe into these slain, that they may live.' " 10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.

 11 Then he said to me: "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.' 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: 'This is what the Sovereign LORD says: O my people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel. 13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the LORD have spoken, and I have done it, declares the LORD.' "

Another Halloween theme, is the jack-o-lanterns.

Again, revisiting Matthew 25:1-13, we read about the importance of keeping the lamps lit.  Lamps that are lit are symbolic of readiness for the return of the Lord, and are a symbol of being filled with the Holy Spirit.  The symbol of the door is also highlighted in this passage.

The Parable of the Ten Virgins

Matthew 25 1"At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 "At midnight the cry rang out: 'Here's the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!
7 "Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
8 The foolish ones said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.'
9" 'No,' they replied, 'there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.'
10 "But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
11 "Later the others also came. 'Sir! Sir!' they said. 'Open the door for us!'
12 "But he replied, 'I tell you the truth, I don't know you.'
13 "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

Not knowing the day or hour is also a description of the Feast of Trumpets.  The new moon falls on every 29 and a half days.  Thus, there is slight uncertainty on which day it might exactly fall, especially if the observance of the prior new moon was hidden by clouds.

Hiding is also a theme of this Feast.

A bride hides her face with a veil.

Kids mask their faces with costumes.

Believers will be "hid" in heaven for 7 years, the length of the tribulation.  And here are three passages on that:

Zeph 2:3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD's anger.

Pss 27:5 For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.

Isa 26:20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.

So, that's a summary of the themes.

Here are other cultures, and other versions of this feast.

In Mexico, they actually hid their observance of this feast until recently.

"In contrast to the Day of the Dead, overt worship of Santa Muerte (Dead Saint) remained hidden until the 19th century. When it surfaced, reaction was harsh, requiring the burning of any image found."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Muerte

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_of_the_Dead

Daniel also said that in the last days, knowledge would increase.

Halloween is also related to All Saint's Day and the Celtic feast, Samhain.

Rosh Hashanna is, according to the Jews, the new year.

Samhain is also the new year to the Celts.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samhain

"Many scholars believe that it was the beginning of the Celtic year.[3][4][5]"

The Gaelic custom of wearing costumes and masks, was an attempt to copy the spirits or placate them. In Scotland the dead were impersonated by young men with masked, veiled or blackened faces, dressed in white.[7][8] Samhnag — turnips which were hollowed-out and carved with faces to make lanterns — were also used to ward off harmful spirits.[8]

The Gaelic festival became associated with the Christian All Saints' Day and All Souls' Day, and has hugely influenced the secular customs now connected with Halloween, a name first attested in the 16th century as a Scottish shortening of the fuller All-Hallows-Even.[9] Samhain continues to be celebrated as a religious festival by some Neopagans.[4][10]

Samhain is a Celtic festival.  Some scholars say the Celts are one of the ten lost tribes of Israel.

The Celts are Israelites Under Another Name.
http://jahtruth.co.uk/celtisr.htm

That would mean that the Celts, the Lost Israelites, likely had customs and feasts that are likely similar to the original Feasts of the Lord.

The main Biblical symbol that is missing in Halloween is the trumpet.

But there is a symbol of a Cornucopia, a "horn of plenty" in Northern America that is often associated with the fall feast known as Thanksgiving.  The Cornucopia is a twisted horn, and originally said to be a goat's horn, which is very similar to the ram's horn, or Shofar, used in Rosh Hashanna.

Compare the google images of the shofar to images of the cornucopia.

http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&source=imghp&biw=1525&bih=849&q=shofar&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=

http://www.google.com/images?hl=en&gbv=2&tbs=isch:1&&sa=X&ei=--fJTL-yHoeCsQOAh8mQDg&ved=0CCQQvwUoAQ&q=cornucopia&spell=1&biw=1525&bih=849

In the wikipedia article on Halloween, they show that they knew this was a day the dead can come to life, which is a description of the resurrection, but historians don't even know why kids dress up for Halloween, only theorizing that they did so to ward off evil spirits.

"The ancient Celts believed that the border between this world and the Otherworld became thin on Samhain, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through. The family's ancestors were honoured and invited home while harmful spirits were warded off. It is believed that the need to ward off harmful spirits led to the wearing of costumes and masks. Their purpose was to disguise oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm."

The Feasts of the Lord are commemorations, rehearsals, like a play.

The people are supposed to play out what is supposed to happen on this prophetic day.

On this day, Jesus will return, and raise the dead, and take them to be his bride, (changing them to immortality, like superheroes) and take them to heaven through himself, as he is the door.

To play that out, kids dress up as the dead, and go door to door (to Jesus) and get candy (heaven).

Trick or treating is a means by which the custom continues, because if you don't play along, and give out candy to the kids, you get the trick instead, and get punished.

The original trickster was Jacob (Israel), who dressed up as his hairy brother Esau, to gain the birthright from the old Issac.

So, what does all of this mean?

I think this is cultural evidence that Americans and those who celebrate Halloween and similar festivals are the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel.

I think these festivals provide further confirming cultural evidence of the reliability of the Bible, and the reliability of the meaning of the symbols and themes of the rapture, as interpreted in light of the symbols of the Feast of Trumpets and Halloween.

I believe that God directly provides direct and continued inspiration to cultures who are willing to listen, and that these are the Feasts of the Lord, and that the Lord will have HIS feasts observed, period.

Jesus himself said at the prophetic event of his entry into Jerusalem, "the rocks would cry out" if the people did not.

Luke 19:37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:
38 “Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!”“Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples!”
40 “I tell you,” he replied, “if they keep quiet, the stones will cry out.”

There is certainly a lot more that can be learned on this topic.

Who am I as to be so audatious or bold as to make these claims and associations?

I'm merely a guy who has been preaching about honest money for the past ten years, in a culture that is 99.9% deceived about the nature of money.  I'm used to teaching things that should be common sense, but are unknown, or hidden.

What does this article have to do with silver?  Good question.

It's my hope that this article reinforces the reality of the truths of Scripture.  That the Israelites were not just a people in an old dusty book, but that we are their descendants, and that we have unknowingly kept to certain traditions that prove that to be true.  I hope that you find that the Bible is a book of truths, that God is real.

After the resurrection, what kind of life will it be?  God will wipe away all evil, and stop fraud and theft on a national and institutionalized scale, so that people will be able to enjoy the fruit of their labors.  (Isaiah 65)  Thus, there will not be any such thing as paper money fraud in God's world.  Instead, there will be silver, and gold.

If we are the people of the Bible, and if the Bible is real, then we ought to take it seriously.  I do. 

Paper Money Violates All Ten Commandments

1.  Paper money debt enslaves you to something other than God.
2.  Valuing paper money is an act of idolatry.
3.  "In God we trust" takes the Lord's name in vain.
4.  The sabbath debt forgiveness times are ignored.
5.  Lack of honest standards dishonors our parents.
6.  Paper money has funded mass murder; two world wars.
7.  Lenders, usurers, are committing spiritual adultery.
8.  Paper money and banking is institutionalized theft.
9.  Paper money requires a mountain of false testimony.
10.  Paper money is supported by greed and covetousness.

I strongly advise you to take possession of real gold and silver, at anywhere near today's price, while you still can.  The fundamentals indicate rising prices for decades to come, and that paper money will ultimately be destroyed completely.

Be Careful with Emgold Stock

(Don't bid more than 20 cents for Emgold right now!)

Silver Stock Report

by Jason Hommel, October 29, 2011

On Friday morning, I wrote about a stock, and it went up 73% that day from 11 cents to 19 cents/share.
http://silverstockreport.com/2011/emgold.html

Please be careful.  I know the stock is a good deal.  However, at the present time, I recommend that nobody bid more than 20 cents/share for the stock.  There are several reasons.

The most important reason is that the company needs to raise money, up to $125 million.  Paradoxically, it can get harder to raise money if the share price goes too high, too fast, for several reasons.

First, great investment opportunities are great when the price is low.  When the price is much higher, the investment returns are less.  So, just as you don't like paying too much for the stock when you buy it on the open market from an online broker, so also, neither do big money investors want to pay too much when they buy stock directly from the company.  In other words, if you, my readers, bid the stock price too high, too soon, without letting the company raise money, it's self defeating, because we don't want our shares to have no more value than a ponzi scheme if the company is not fully funded, permitted, and ready to begin mining.  Getting fully funded is crucial to enable the stock price to grow from $1 to $10/share!

Second, the company has to raise up to $125 million.  Typically, the largest investors come on board last, when most of the risk has been removed from the project; but they also expect to obtain a large percentage ownership of the project, too.  And that big money is needed if the project is to move forward and generate profits for all the shareholders. 

In other words, it's hard for a $300 million market cap company with only $5 million raised so far, to raise $100 million, but it's easier for a $100 million market cap company, with $50 million already raised, to raise $100 million, because in the latter case, the last investors end up owning 1/2 of the company or more, instead of only 1/4 of the company.  The point is that a good rule of thumb is that a development company should have about half as much cash on hand as the market cap. 

In this case, Emgold is just finishing up a $1 million private placement, at 10 cents per share. But Emgold has 38 million shares out; and now, at 19 cents, has a market cap of about $7 million.  So, the company should not only finish their current private placement, but also, the company should immediately open up a new one, and raise about $2.5 to $3 million at a new, higher price, of about 80% of the current share price, or about 15 cents per share.

It can be a problem if the stock price runs up too fast, because then it might be harder to raise the needed funds to continue the development of the project, on which, ultimately, all of our profits depend.

Also, consider the share volume spike:  The share trading volume has recently averaged about 100,000 shares per day.  Yesterday, there were 1.1 million shares traded, 11 times as much as normal.  I suppose that was due to my article's promotion of the facts of the company.  But let's consider their current private placement of $1 million at 10 cents.  That will be 10 million shares issued, and another 10 million warrants at 14 cents.  That means that 20 million shares will come freely trading in about 4 months to the day after the placement is closed.  So, 4 months from now, the stock might take a dip in price, as those investors might want to try to lock in profits.  So, if you want to buy stock, mark your calendars for about 4 months from now, and be patient!

Learn from my own example.  I purchased Emgold over a period of about 3 weeks.  It took that long to accumulate 1.2 million shares without pushing up the share price, and I bought between 8 cents and 12 cents per share.  Then, I waited about another 5 weeks, before writing yesterday's article, because I wanted to be sure that the immediate bankruptcy risk was removed from the company, to be prudent, before promoting to a wider audience, everyone reading this.

Additionally, if the company begins raising $3 million at 15 cents/share now, as they should, then that will be another 20 million shares, and maybe another 10-20 million warrants that will come freely trading 4 months after that next placement closes.  And when that stock is ready to trade, that might also cause the stock price to move down.

They key for the company, to maintain continued and successful fund raising, is to ramp up promotion at the times when that stock comes free, so that upward momentum of the stock price keeps people interested, rather than discouraged. 

Big money likes to see investment interest from smaller traders.  But bigger money is generally much more cautious, and they will do far more methodical research to make sure of the soundness of the investment opportunity.

Also, if the stock price is too volatile, that also makes it hard for the company, and investors, to figure out what to do.  People begin to wildly speculate that permits are being denied, rather than doing real research or contacting the company to see what is really going on.  A wildly changing stock price can scare off the big money investors that we want to ultimately attract. 

One of the worst things that could happen now, is if another successful promoter found out about Emgold, and began promoting it too aggressively, before the company is able to appropriately scale up and raise funds at gradually increasing price levels.  If you are such a an online promoter, please choose another stock; there are many to choose from.

Here's an example of what I did wrong in the past. 
Canadian Zinc--Silver Potential  Oct 23, 2003

The price moved up over ten times, from 14 cents to $1.80/share, in just a few months!  That was partly my fault, when I didn't know how crucial it was for companies to raise money at appropriate steps.  I also didn't realize that I engaged in "over promotion" by writing about stocks on the internet.  See, about 5 years later, the stock price collapsed down to 20 cents again, barely above the 15 cents it was back in 2003, partly because the company never raised all the money they needed to start production, and investors get tired of waiting, but also, because all mining stocks were hit hard in 2008.  So, if you lost money in that stock, please consider this my official apology.

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=CZN.TO+Basic+Chart&t=my

Look at the price spike from 2003, below, and the dip by 2004-5:



After I learned my lesson, I was much more cautious about this next stock, General Moly, back in 2006:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q/bc?s=GMO+Basic+Chart&t=my



See the price spike up in Jan, 2006?  My fault.  I wrote again, in Spring of 2007.

Will this stock rise from $2 to $100/share?  Jan 7, 2006

GMO Vindication!  March 26, 2007

GMO went from about $1/share to $11/share, but still, there was that nasty down draft of 2008-2009 that hit this stock, too.  Again, be careful.

Emgold has just as good of a chance to rise in price from 10 cents to $1/share over the next 4 to 12 months.  The problem will be if they only raise about $30 million in that timeframe; as it won't be enough, and the stock price would start to take a beating, making it harder to raise the funds to start mining.

Remember what happened to Sterling Mining from 2003 to 2007 or so.  Their stock went up ten to twenty times after they acquired the Sunshine Mine in Idaho.  They raised funds.  Silver prices were rising.  They got overconfident.  They started a new shaft.  Then, they ran out of funds and went bankrupt.  (Long story short.) 

Silver also is volatile, and changes in price wildly.  In the case of silver, I believe that the master manipulators who change the prices at the COMEX, make silver prices wild on purpose, to scare people away from owning it.

Remember, the key point about silver vs. stocks.  Stocks can go bankrupt and go to zero.   Silver never can.  Silver's main risk on the other hand, is simply that it can be stolen.  But the bigger risk in silver is that 99% of investors fail to take delivery of their silver, and thus, they end up putting money with companies who never go out and buy the silver for them in the first place, and that kind of silver is guaranteed to be subject to counter party default risk, which is the risk that the custodian goes bankrupt.

Get a vault.  Order silver from us.  It may be volatile like the penny stocks, but silver's the real deal.  www.jhmint.com



I own Emgold stock, and nobody has paid me to write about Emgold.  I'll earn money only if the stock price goes up.

Why Silver and Gold will go up, and by How Much

(And Emgold, a great $4 million stock; developing a $2 billion gold mine!)

Silver Stock Report

by Jason Hommel, Octoer 28, 2011

 
The government is spending $1500 billion more per year than they are getting in taxes.  They are not borrowing this money; they are printing it.  There is no political will to fix the problem.  The "Occupy Wall Street" protests are about a protest against the Wall Street bailouts, but also, it's about the 99% wanting more government handouts than they are already getting, and already 43 million Americans are on food stamps.  Government over spending, and especially the bank bailouts, will cause inflation, and may ultimately destroy the dollar.   The question is, by how much?
 
Let's do some math.  If only 1% of paper money in savings was spent on gold, that would be about $180 billion.
 
Yet the annual world gold market is only about 75 million ounces (oz.) of newly mined gold each year.    
 
How much gold are Americans currently buying?  About 1 million oz. of gold eagles per year, and I suppose Americans buy about twice that much gold, so only about 2 million oz. out of the 75 million oz. available.  
 
At $1666/oz., the world is spending about $125 billion on gold each year, with Americans spending only about $3 billion of that.
 
If Americans put only 1% of their cash into gold to protect themselves from inflation, which is 180 billion, I'd estimate that the gold price would at least triple, to $5000/oz.
 
But the dollar is no longer backed by gold.  In theory, every dollar in circulation could be spent on gold, and then, spent on gold again!  
 
If all US dollars were spent on official US gold, that would be about $18 trillion spent on 261 million oz. of gold.  That implies a price of $69,000 per oz.
 
What about silver?
 
If only 1% of money, $180 billion, were spent on silver, well, the annual production of silver is only about 700 million oz.  That implies a price of $257/oz, but that would leave no silver left over for industry, which vitally needs silver in at least 10,000 different applications, so we should conservatively double that number to $500/oz.
 
The historic ratio of silver to gold is 15:1.  But since silver has been so utterly consumed by industry, I'd expect prices to eventually exceed that ratio, and hit at least 10:1, if not 5:1.
 
If silver hits 10:1, and if gold hits $69,000, then silver can hit $6,900/oz.  I hope you understand why I'm comfortable holding silver and gold, keeping them available for inventory at the JH MINT, despite the wild price changes.  
 
To answer a common question, "If you like it, why sell it?"  Answer, "I sell it at prices that cover my costs, and there is a tiny profit in this business, and I use that to buy more."  
 
But also, I want my town to profit.  Already, the JH MINT has sold at least $20 million dollars of gold and silver into our community; which is ten times more than the most successful "barter dollar" program in the nation.  If the dollar fails, this part of the nation will do just fine.  Or at least, there are enough truly wealthy people here now, that this area might do ok because there is enough real wealth in town.
 
I highly recommend that you buy silver from the JH MINT today, or sometime soon to protect your hard earned money from inflation.

JH MINT Supports Emgold Mining & Idaho-Maryland Mining Corp.
 
JH MINT recommends buying Emgold stock now!
 
Emgold is a stock with a market cap value of about $4 million.
 
Their assets, of the Idaho-Maryland Mine in my hometown of Grass Valley, CA, may well have gold in the ground worth between about $2 to $10 billion.
 
Their last feasibility study said the gold was economic to extract at about $420/oz.!
 
They plan to mine up to 200,000 oz. to 300,000 oz. of gold per year.
 
With profits of about $1200/oz., this is about $240 to $360 million dollars in profit per year.
 
The stock price will likely rise from about 10 cents to $1/share as they raise the money to start mining.
 
The stock price will then likely rise from about $1/share to $10/share after they begin mining. 
 
In other words, people who buy stock now, may well make 100 times their initial investment!
 
The company will have to raise about $125 million to get started mining.  With such a low market cap today, this means that only about 10% or less of the future ownership of Emgold is spoken for.  The real majority owners, the other 90%, have not yet stepped up and bought stock from the company to give Emgold the financing they need to start mining.
 
Here's how this might take place:
 
Emgold has 38 million shares outstanding now.
 
Emgold might raise $2 million at 14 cents/share, issuing another 14 million shares.
Emgold might raise $4 million at 21 cents/share, issuing another 19 million shares.
Emgold might raise $8 million at 31 cents/share, issuing another 26 million shares.
Emgold might raise $16 million at 45 cents/share, issuing another 36 million shares.
Emgold might raise $32 million at 67 cents/share, issuing another 48 million shares.
Emgold might raise $64 million at $1/share, issuing another 64 million shares.
 
That would raise all the money they need to start mining, $126 million, and anyone who buys the stock today at ten cents would make 10 times their money during fund raising period.  And how much stock would be issued total?
 
64 + 48 + 36 + 26 + 19 + 14 + 38 = 245
 
If Emgold does it right, they might have 245 million shares by the time they are done raising the money they need.
 
If they do it even better, they could put the money they raise into gold, and if the gold price doubles, they could eliminate the final fund raising, and self-finance the mine with much less stock issued!
 
But if they issue a total of 245 million shares, and if they earn between $240 to $360 million, that's earnings of over $1 per share.  That kind of a dividend would drive the stock price to $10/share, or more, if the gold price keeps going up. 
  
It's an axiom of life that if you don't buy it, you won't own it.  
 
The great thing about Emgold is that it's a public company, and shares trade daily, so ownership is always on sale.  Therefore, nobody has a legitimate right to complain that they don't own the profits of Emgold; because they can buy stock at any time if they wish.
 
With the dollar continuing to crash, I believe it is inevitable that many local mines will reopen at some point.  The only real decision is who will own the mine or mines? 
 
ANYONE CAN BUY STOCK IN EMGOLD!  To buy stock, you would need to open a stock broker account with a brokerage like tdameritrade.com (recommended) or etrade.com or morganstanley.com or ml.com.

US Pink Sheets symbols: EGMCF.PK, EGMCF
Canadian Vancouver exchange: EMR.V, V.EMR

http://www.idaho-maryland.com/s/Home.asp
 
Will the mine create environmental damage?  Not likely.  Mines today are more environmentally friendly than ever.  And the profits will be more than enough to pay to prevent any environmental damage.  The town council and independent analysts will ensure that.
 
What about wells running dry?  Not likely.  It might only affect about 12 homes (or not), and the Mine can easily afford the $1 million estimate to put those homes on NID water, to compensate them for the change in a water source. 
 
If you want to help out yourself, I think you should buy stock in Emgold today.
 
Imagine if you or your corporation put a mere $100,000 into Emgold at the start of financing, and if that $100,000 investment grew into $10 million worth of stock, that was earning over $1 million per year in dividends. 
 
Finally, the stock is so cheap, it might be possible for a new buying group or company to buy a controlling interest in the company, rather cheaply.

I own Emgold stock, and nobody has paid me to write about Emgold.  I'll earn money only if the stock price goes up.

Peak Oil or Peak Silver?

(Neither; just rising prices!)

Silver Stock Report

by Jason Hommel, Octoer 21, 2011

There is a 50 year supply of oil in the ground, but only a 13 year supply of silver. 

This means that if peak oil is true, then peak silver is more true, that we will run out of silver, first.  If that happens, you can forget about peak oil, because without silver, we won't have any computers or electronics to be able to go out and explore for, or pump, or deliver, any oil.

But wait, see, 10 years ago, when I first got into silver, the world had a 15-16 year supply of silver in the ground.  Why isn't it down to 6?  Because we explore for, and find, more silver all the time.  We always have.  Also, with rising prices, previously explored and uneconomic silver deposits suddenly can become economic and add to supply, especially as silver prices have risen from $5 to $30/oz.

See, mankind has been exploring for, finding and mining silver, for maybe up to 6000 years.  In contrast, oil has a shorter history, only going back 160 years to the mid 1800's.  And the oil market today is so large, that we feel we are dependent on it, and in many ways, we are, and this kind of dependency tends to bring out irrational fears.

The general trend has been that the number of years of oil in the ground always goes up.  In 1975, we had only a 25 year supply of oil, and the world was supposed to run out by the time I was 30.  I'm 41, and now the world has a 50 year supply.  (See HSBC article:   http://green.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/03/30/less-than-50-years-of-oil-left-hsbc-warns/)

See, the trend is that in the next 50 years, the world will have a 100 year supply of oil.

But going back even further, about 100 years ago, there was only a 2-3 year supply of oil in the ground.

People predicting shortages have been around forever.  Lot said to Abraham, there is not enough water for both of our flocks, so you go one way, and I'll go another.  Malthus predicted we would soon run out of food, way back in 1798.  O-kay! 

So let's agree that we will run out of "cheap oil".  Agreed.  But we will run out of "cheap silver" far sooner, and thus, silver is the better investment!  The world should try to squeeze $2.7 trillion in oil revenues into the tiny $30 billion silver market and watch silver prices explode upwards due to the economic realities of scale, size, and price!

Some people are saying that we are not exploring for oil fast enough, despite the rising reserves.  OK.  There might be another rational explanation, other than "the world is running out". 

See commodities run in cycles, with low prices, and high prices.  High prices lead to exploration booms, which tend to stop during cycles of low prices.  These cycles can last 30-60 years.

Oil was $10/barrel in the year 2000--the low price time.  Oil was $43/barrel back in 1980--the last price peak.  That's a 20 year cycle, for just a one way price movement, a drop.  The monetary base has increased ten times since 1980, so the prior peak price was really $430/barrel.  That's a big swing in prices for a 20 year commodity cycle, the equivalent of going from $430 to $10. 

Basic economics explains a lot.  The economic incentives to go out and explore for more oil are a lot less when oil is $10, as it was in recent history, and oil at $85 is still "low", down 80% from the peak!

Another factor vastly reducing oil exploration incentives in our modern world is that 80-90 percent of world oil production has been confiscated by the dictators running the world's nations.  A perfect example is the oil found by the Hunt brothers in Lybia.  Lybia stole fields worth $5 billion from the Hunts.  Now, after that happens, where is the economic incentive for anyone to explore for oil in Lybia?  And a few months ago, Venezuela nationalized oil, again.

See, 80 to 90 percent of the best places to explore for oil in the world are off limits to free market exploration.  And yet, the world is still managing to find an ever increasing annual number of years of oil left.  Amazing!

Imagine how much oil the world would explore for, and find, if there were no dictators stealing oil, and if oil prices were at $430/barrel!  Hint, most "peak oiler" guys cannot imagine such circumstances.  (OK, yes, but we still have dictators!)  I know.  I understand.  I agree with the reality of today.  But how many revolts would there be against such dictators when people can no longer afford oil or food?  Conditions of scarcity caused by dictators tend to help remove such dictators from power.  Witness Egypt.

And let's also consider the remaining 10-20 percent of the oil in the "free" world?  Well, about 9 cents per gallon of gas goes to "oil profits" and about 50 cents goes to state and federal taxes.  So, about 80% of the world's "free" oil is being confiscated at the pump in taxes.

Yet with all that theft of oil, the world's oil reserves are still growing!  Do you see any reason to be optimistic yet?

See, in my view, the world does not have an "oil shortage" problem.  Instead, the world has a "freedom shortage" problem.  The best way to increase freedom is to buy silver, as this takes away the power of governments to steal by using the printing press to print paper money.

Yes, my view is supported by my ideals.  There is also the issue of prophecy, which matches exactly with the history of the last 100 years.  The Bible says that in the last days, travel and knowledge will increase.  "Daniel 12:4 But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go here and there to increase knowledge.”

Is anyone worried about the impending world wide banana shortage?  No?  Why not?  After all, there is only a 20 day supply in the whole world.  After that, all the green bananas turn brown and are rotten.  Nobody worried?  Why?  Because more bananas are always growing.

As far as we know, oil comes up from the earth and re-fills old oil fields, over time.  This is the abiotic theory of oil, that oil bubbles up from the earth's magma.  If that's the case, we essentially have an unlimited supply of oil.

I would tend to be more likely to believe peak oil proponants if they understood basic economic laws.

As oil prices go up, people will naturally use less gas, if the economic pain is high enough.  As far as I can see, the rise in oil from $10 to $100 has hardly caused a reduction in gas use, and gas prices only rose from about $1.50 to $4.50, only 3 times.

But this just goes to show that oil, at $10, was ridiculously cheap, and thus, recently extremely abundant!  (Hint, not scarce, not running out.)

Again, with oil now at $85, oil is still down more than 80% from it's inflation adjusted high of $430/barrel from 1980.

As oil prices rise, not only are there are higher economic incentives to explore for more oil, but also, vastly larger oil fields with lower grade oils suddenly become more economic to produce from.  There's that word again, "economic", which trips up the peak oil crowd.

The peak oilers warn about this lower grade oil, warning about the lower "energy returned on energy invested" (EREI), warning that if the energy return heads to zero, we run out.  I get that.

But lower grade deposits have two interesting points about them.  First, today, many are economic even with oil 80% lower than prices that the world can tolerate!  Second, the good point about lower grade oil deposits, is that like almost all lower grade mining projects, the size of the deposit tends to grow exponentially larger, thus aiding exponential growth rates of oil usage.

The other factor not often considered about "energy returned on energy invested" (EREI) arguments is that the proponants count all costs in terms of energy, and this is not true.  Energy is only about 4% of the world economy, only about $2 trillion out of about $50 trillion or so.  Costs are usually in dollars, and could also be counted in terms of gold.

The EREI proponants say that when energy is spent, it is destroyed.  And they also correctly warn that dollars could be destroyed.  True, and true.  And thus, they worry, and warn that we could "run out of money" to spend on oil.  NOT TRUE.  Why?

They forgot about gold.  Gold is not destroyed when it is spent, but rather, it just changes hands.  In fact, when gold goes into the hands of people who have successfully explored for, and managed, and produced oil for the world to solve our oil needs, it goes into the best possible hands in the world, because those people will likely continue to try to produce oil for the world!  Furthermore, as gold goes up in price, there is MORE MONEY for all the holders of all the gold in the world.

Here's a comparison to show why there will be a lot more money if paper money goes away completely.  If we could not spent paper money on oil, we would have to spend gold and/or silver.  What would that look like? 

Let's start by looking at how much paper money is out there, and the annual value of the oil and gold production.

Currently, there is always seemly a dire shortage of money, and yet, there is only about $50-60 trillion worth of paper currency.  Despite the fact that they are always printing it, the problem is that the value keeps going down, resulting in a weirdly stable $50-60 billion for the world economy over the last ten years.

The world produces about $3 trillion of oil per year.  The math is 88 million barrels per day, x 365 days, x $85/barrel = $2.7 trillion.

The world mines about $130 billion, or $0.13 trillion, of gold per year.

2.7/.13 = 21  Thus, the world's oil production is worth about 21 times as much as the world's gold production.

But what if the entire world used gold for money?  And what if the world still spent only 5% of the world's gold production on oil production, because the world has other things to buy with the gold, too.

Well, what if the world's gold production was worth 20 times as much as the world's oil production?  It could happen.  After all, the detractors of gold say that "you can't eat gold".  But that's a benefit.  See, if gold prices go up, nobody starves, and mining simply increases!

So, to measure value in terms of "stable dollars", because that's how our minds value things today, what would gold values be if gold production were worth 20 times oil production, and if there were no paper money on earth, and if only 5% of gold production were spent on all world oil production?

Math:  $2.7 trillion worth of annual oil production x 20 = $54 trillion, divided by 75 million oz. of gold annual production, = $720,000 dollars per ounce.  wow.  It could happen!  And there would be no shortage of money to spend to go out and explore for oil!  Again, that implies a value for gold, if there is no paper money, and if 5% of gold production were able to buy 100% of world oil production, because the rest of gold production would be spent on other things, just like in today's world.

If gold were worth so much, then the world's 5 billion oz. of gold would be worth $3,600,000 billion.  See, that's a lot more money than $50,000 billion in world cash.  So, the world does not ever have to worry about running out of money (poking a major hole in the Energy Returned on Energy Invested argument), as long as it simply values gold higher.  This also means that gold does not cause a restriction on economic activity, like the bashers of the gold standard falsely claim.  Gold causes a restriction on govenrment intervention, and helps to create an explosion of freedom that the world so desperatly needs, to solve world problems like shortages of oil!

Also, as the dollar continues to fail, very very few people will try to buy 100 barrels of oil to put on their front lawns to store the equivalent of $8500 worth of wealth.  But millions of people will try to buy $10,000 worth of silver and gold, or far more, and put that in their vaults at home! 

And that information might just be better than silver!
