Edition 457: February 19^th 2019

Israel’s friends and enemies:

Introduction:

Psalm 68:13 “Though you (Israel) lie down among the sheepfolds, yet you will be like the wings of a dove, covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.”

After her rejection, Israel is regathered to her land in spiritual blindness. She then repents, sees spiritually, and is accepted by God for His grand finale and culmination of His plan of the ages.

In all of this great drama Israel has had friends of feather who flock together! “There is a friend who sticks closer than a brother”. (Proverbs 18:24) We are now in the time of the great divide, where those who will be Israel’s friends and those who will be her enemies, are being manifest.

This edition will cause you to be faced with a choice of who you friends are. And here we’re talking about best friends forever – The real ones - The ones who will lay down their lives for their friend.

Do not underestimate the gravity of these issues and the eternal consequences for you and others whom you may influence!

Spiritual blindness and ignorance are twins. But add to these - spiritual curses, upon those who resist God’s plans for Israel, and you have the deadly triplets.

What constitutes a friend or enemy of Israel?

We are talking about Israel collectively. That includes all of the Promised Land, the city of Jerusalem and the Jewish people in their land and abroad.

The land of Israel and the city of Jerusalem are quite unimportant if God is finished with the Jewish people! What does it then matter? They and their land are then like every worldly land and city.

It’s all important in so far as God has a decreed plan and purpose for the land and people, which is the undeniable case. Friends agree. Enemies don’t and resist.

There is one huge issue here, and that is the growing conflict between the spiritual forces of God and the devil. Most people are totally blind to this war, of which they are part!

The curse on everyone who comes against God’s plans for Israel is mentioned in numerous verses, beginning way back in Genesis 12:3.

The modern day enemies of Israel fall into the categories of anti-Semitism, and replacement theology, which is the Catholic-created belief that the church has replaced Israel and God, has now finished with Israel.

One of my early mentors, Derek Prince said in 1946: “The horrors of anti-Semitism are the longest and deepest hatred of human history.” He identified it as an issue with a purely spiritual source. He said, “Anti-Semitism is anti-Messiah!

Bear in mind that the word “antichrist” means to come against the true Messiah and then replace Him with the false Messiah. The term incorporates anti-Semitism and replacement theology, in that our Messiah is in Israel by His word and covenant promise.

Very often when a believer turns away from the Lord, he turns to the spirit of the devil, consciously or not! There is no such thing as neutrality. (Matthew 12:30) In many cases, such a person becomes anti-Israel the further he moves away from God.

I know a number of people personally, who have turned away from the Lord. One has become an atheist. Another has become an Anglican. Both of them have become anti-Semitic in their views!

How telling is that? You can grow into an anti-Semite – just turn away from the Messiah!

Hatred for God’s plan for the Jews always has a spiritual source. Love for God includes love for His ways, people and choices.

As soon as the pressure is on – watch and see the transition into all manner of extreme forms and the manifestations of pure, satanic Jew - hatred, in and out of the church! It will be one of the great walls and fences of division that God will build.

You will be with Him or against Him.

Israel’s enemies:

Israel’s greatest enemy is Satan himself and his mouthpiece, the mass-media. Many people are friends of the mass-media and subject to their guidance. What deadly friends!

The worst enemy is the one who befriends you under false pretences. The “friend” with a back-stabbing knife in his hand, behind his back awaiting your back is a treacherous friend.

Satan befriends people always with ulterior motives, which are to lead you astray and then annihilate you spiritually, then kill you.

A big enemy is right within Israel. The Bible calls them, “The synagogue of Satan.” That would be the legalistic modern Pharisees, or rabbinic Judaism. (Revelation 3:9)

Together with the “synagogue of Satan”, we see the church that “knows the depths of Satan.” (Revelation 2:24) This would be the orthodox churches led by the Catholics. Interestingly, the Catholic church was the chief architect of enmity towards Israel, from its birth (and still is).

Today there is a move within some of the Catholics, Anglicans and other denominational churches to support Israel in some ways. But they all still remain blind to, or opposed to God’s call and plan for Israel. They want Israel for the world-system. They are treacherous friends.

Deuteronomy 25:18-19 “Remember what Amalek did to you when you were coming out of Egypt, how he met you and attacked your rear ranks, all the stragglers at your rear, when you were tired and weary; and he did not fear God. When the Lord your God has given you rest from your enemies all around in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance, you will blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven. You shall not forget (to do it).”

Amalek was a grandson of Esau, who was the father of the Arab nations. His people were called the Amalekites, who had the dubious “honour” of being the first nation on earth to attack the Israelites.

The name Amalek is derived from the name Aman meaning “to darken.”

The Amalek spirit is of cruelty and cowardice and will continue to manifest through the age. (Exodus 17:16)

But the terrible thing is that they attacked the weak, tired and weary – the vulnerable and defenceless within the children of Israel. You have to be a special sort of savage to do that – Just like so many today!

It’s not a good idea to be an enemy of Israel or God’s plans for them.  The following verses have a prophetic overtone to them:

Psalm 129:5 “Let them all be confounded and turned back who hate Zion.”

Deuteronomy 28:7 “The Lord will cause your enemies (Israel) who rise against you to be defeated before your face. They shall come out against you one way and flee seven ways.”

Isaiah 66:14-16 “The hand of the Lord shall be known to His servants and His indignation to His enemies. For behold the Lord will come with fire and with His chariots like a whirlwind, to render His anger with fury and His rebuke with flames of fire. For by fire and by His sword the Lord will judge all flesh; and the slain of the Lord will be many”

Isaiah 29:5 “The multitude of your foes (Israel) shall be like fine dust, and the multitude of the terrible ones shall be as chaff that passes away; yes it shall be in an instant, suddenly.”

Satan’s plan for Israel is to destroy them. It is also to destroy the friendships and bonds of those who stand with and for Israel in these days.

Israel’s friends:

You know the “why me” syndrome, when things go badly wrong for you? Well, very soon Israel will be faced with great catastrophe and war. They will rightly say, “Why me?” This is just when Israel will need all the friends she has.

Often, when there are great catastrophes, no matter who caused them; people look to themselves in repentance. There is just something good and right about having clean hands when dealing with battles or opposition.

Friends are people who talk well of you, who stand for you, who support you.

Israel has been a curse among the nations, but will soon become a blessing to the nations! Talk about going from curse to blessing!

Psalm 44:13-14 “You make us (Israel) a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to those all around us. You make us a byword (curse-word) among the nations, a shaking of the head among the peoples.”

But then:

Zechariah 8:13 “It shall come to pass that just as you were a curse amongst the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you, and you shall be a blessing. Do not fear, let your hands be strong.”

Israel is God’s prodigal son – don’t get in the way of the son coming home!

The father loved the prodigal son. The brother did not! Can you love a prodigal son that you know for a certainty will soon return home in repentance? Can you love the now-unlovely?

Today many Christians have a dozen reasons why Israel is unlovely. They themselves are the short-sighted ones!

Isaiah 42:6 “I the Lord have called you (Israel) in righteousness, and will hold your hand; I will keep you and give you as a covenant to the people, as a light to the Gentiles.”

It is the Lord Himself who will “hold Israel’s hand” with His nail-scared hands. Very soon the Jews will recognise the “pierced” One! Can you hold Israel’s other hand? Can you be a true friend of Israel, knowing God’s wonderful plan for them?

Picture this: Israel is walking down the road. A Lion is walking next to her, holding her hand, and you, fellow friend, are holding her other hand.

Today far too many are blindly holding the evil beast’s hand in friendship – they speak his cursed words, and do the wicked works of their friend.

Isaiah 40:1 “Comfort, yes comfort My people! Says your God. Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, that her warfare has ended, that her iniquity is pardoned; for she has received from the Lord’s hand, double for all her sins.”

The verse above is speaking to the church. It’s not saying, “Israel must comfort Israel.” That does not make sense. The church is the only other candidate that fits the bill.

A real friend intercedes, prays and guides his friends out of danger. “Babylon” in the verse below is the world-system and the false religious system of the world.

Jeremiah 27:18 “If they are prophets and if the word of the Lord is with them, let them now make intercession to the Lord of hosts, that the vessels which are left in the house of the king of Judah, and at Jerusalem, do not go to Babylon.”

Beware, beware beware:

There is not much we can do about anti-Semitism in the world, except pray against it. But replacement theology in the church is a terrible danger, because it comes from within.

The spirit of antichrist comes from within the church. (1 John 2:19) Is it any surprise that the works of the devil in their most dangerous from come from within?

Today we are seeing those in ministry, who are not called, not prepared, not equipped and not knowledgeable of the scriptures, being morphed and transformed by curses at work into dangerous ministers of replacement theology.

Deadly wolves harm the weak within the church, the stragglers and the new to the faith.

With some, I noticed the danger a long time ago. Now when the spiritual pressures are intensifying, these things begin to bear their ugly fruit. And the gullible follow them into the devils trap!

Malachi 2:8 “You have departed from the way; you have caused many to stumble at the law (word)...”

Deuteronomy 27:18 “Cursed is he who makes the blind to wander out of the way of God.”

Personally, I turned my back on many of these teachers a long time ago. I don’t care what some of them have to say, I’ve long since rejected them and their ministry.

I strongly advise that in these days, you take special care not to receive suspect material in regard to Israel.

Arising anti-Semitism today, is in itself an indicator that God has not finished with Israel. The god of this world, Satan would not bother if Israel was just another brick in the world’s wall.

Romans 11:11-12 “Have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has gone to the Gentiles. Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness.”

Please note in the verse above that it is salvation going to the Gentiles that provokes the Jews to jealousy. This is why I have been claiming for a long time now that the rapture of the mostly Gentile church will be the great sign and event that will suddenly lead to the salvation of those left behind.

Application and interpretation:

We must be led by the Spirit in these things. We must interpret what is for Israel for Israel and what is for the church for the church. We can of course, take lessons from all.

Here is a classic, and one of the worst interpretation and application errors I have ever seen:

Isaiah 66:8-10 “...Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day? Or shall a nation be born at once? As soon as Zion travailed she gave birth to her children...Rejoice with Jerusalem and be glad with her, all you who love her.”

The Revelation 12 –sign teachers all used this verse above as relating to the church, replacing Israel.

It relates to the birth of Israel as a nation in a day, and has application to the coming salvation of Israel. It has nothing to do with the church.

That is an example of fermenting, growing replacement theology.

These things grow legs – beware!

The answer is to avoid them all together until or unless there is repentance. Remember that we are dealing primarily with spirits – the “Spirit of truth, and the spirit of error”.

God’s word, led by the Spirit of God keeps us straight and level and away from a spiral dive!

John 16:1 “These things I have spoken to you, that you should not be made to stumble.”

God’s friends and enemies yesterday and  today:

In the Bible there are 8728 enemies of Israel mentioned.

Every world empire that tried to destroy the Jews is no more. They were all godless empires.

God destroys His enemies. In many cases He has used Israel as His battle axe. That is the end-time story as well! It is the job of the church to go to war now, in the spirit. We are to stand as the rear guard in prayer and spiritual warfare for our friends.

Of course we operate in forgiveness and mercy, but that is on a personal level. We were not given spiritual weapons and armour to keep them locked up in the cupboard!

We the church, have the high calling of defending the truth with the truth as a spiritual sword.

The friends of the antichrist in and out of the church are doomed.

Obadiah 1:15 “The day of the Lord upon all nations is near; as you have done, it shall be done to you; your reprisal shall return upon your own head.”

Exodus 23:22-27 “If you indeed obey His voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries. I will send My fear before you, I will cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.”

As Israel went into the Promised Land led by Joshua, they encountered the following enemies, all of Arab descent. God’s command was to destroy them, which the children of Israel did only partially:

• Girgashite: “Clay dweller” – a focus on temporary earthly dwelling.
• Amorite: “To speak against, in pride.”
• Canaanite: “To subdue.”
• Perizzite: “Unwalled or unprotected village.”
• Hivite: “Small village, or limited vision.”
• Jebusite: To humiliate, put down, thresh.

The character of Israel’s enemies is accurately revealed in these word meanings above.

Isaiah 66:6 (The Lord vindicates Zion) “The Sound came of a noise from the city! A voice from the temple! The voice of the Lord came, who fully repays His enemies.” (Isaiah 59:18)

Isaiah 41:11 “Behold, all those who were incensed against you (Israel) shall be ashamed and disgraced. They shall be as nothing, and those who strive with you shall perish.”

Israel accepted – the grand end purpose:

Isaiah 66:19 “I will set a sign among them (Jews)...they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles.”

Okay let’s use some logic. If the above verse is true and replacement theology, which replaces Israel with the church, claiming God is finished with the Jews, is also true, then these two are in conflict. That would mean that Israel is the church and therefore the church has to declare God’s glory to the Gentiles in the tribulation period.

Understand very well that the very structure of replacement theology, places the church in the tribulation period, right to the end. That means that all of the church must go through all of the tribulation period. How wrong can you be!

Finally

Are you a friend of Israel in your heart? I am, unreservedly!

If God loved you while you were dead in your trespasses and sins, and chose you before the foundation of the earth, do you think He doesn’t love the Jews now in their rebellion? Do you think the Jews don’t deserve God’s love now? You go and tell Him that you deserve His love and not them!

One can understand increasing anti-Semitism in the world but it is truly a despicable, dirty stain when seen in the church in its various forms.

In your own heart and prayer, now is the time to make your alliances. Do the right and wise thing now. Stand with and for Israel.

2 Peter 1:9-10 “Be even more diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble, for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom...”

I took the lion picture in the Mabula Private Game Reserve and combined it with a mix of baobab trees around the country.

Shalom and grow in His Grace!

Edition 456: February 12^th 2019

Messages from heaven Part 2:

Introduction:

The central theme of this edition is: The enemy on the inside!   You will be very surprised to see how relevant the Bible is to our situation today.

Divide and conquer is the theme.

There is strength in unity, so if Satan can break that unity in God’s people, he weakens them. He brings in his demonic enemies through division and deception.

One of the ancient methods of conquering an enemy was the use of the Trojan horse. This was a large hollow, wooden horse on wheels with soldiers hidden on the inside, and then delivered to the inside of the city where the warriors would disembark for their attack.

This was also a WW11 strategy called the “fifth column.” Four, surrounded a city, but the fifth was already on the inside, hidden amongst the people.

God works in us from the inside, through to the outside. Satan works from the outside in, but in many instances he gains access to the inside to create his havoc from within.

We are on the verge of great defeat for many, and great victory for those applying God’s word, principles and weapons of warfare.

Revelation 6:2-4 “I looked and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it had a bow, and a crown was given him, and he went out conquering and to conquer...‘Come and see.’ And another horse, fiery red went out, and it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.”

Satan’s way is: ●Divide and conquer. ●Deceive and conquer. ●Corrupt and conquer.

But the Bible says true believers using their gifts of warfare are “more than conquerors”.

Conquers of he early church:

The early church lost its power when it was influenced by the Council of Nicea in 325AD. This was the first religious world council formed to promote ecumenism (world religion). The aim was world peace through unity of religion, all controlled by themselves. This was the early days of the formation of the Catholic church.

This and other Councils were a case of conquering from within. It produced the dark ages.

Here is the lament of the early church in dealing with and observing the spirit of antichrist in their day, and which remains universally true to this day:

1 John 2:19 “They (antichrists) went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out that they might manifest that they were none of us.”

Those seeking a world religious movement on earth, deny the truth: “My kingdom is not of this earth”. This was also the watershed moment when the church turned against Israel.

The world’s religions will still unite soon under the power of Satan, and ride the scarlet beast – a Trojan in disguise onto the stage, deceiving the whole world. (Revelation 12:9)

They will be the true riders of the satanic storm!

The message to true believers is: Stay away from any attempts by anyone to form a unified, world peace movement, religious or otherwise, on earth. It is all of the wrong. They must get rid of Israel, because she is a thorn in their side.

Messages to Israel:

Ahead of your spiritual awakening, Israel, you must know the process and the opposition!

Jericho had strong walls and inside was a cesspool of sin and those who resisted the children of Israel on their way to the conquest of the Promised Land. The king of Jericho refused to allow them to pass through, in obedience to God.

Sounds just like Pharaoh refusing to “let My people go!”

Israel could have remained in the wilderness to die, or joined Jericho in her abominations, or destroyed her!

Well, we know the story. Israel sent spies secretly and hidden, into the city, and with the help of the Gentile – Rahab, Israel destroyed Jericho. Just before the city fell, Rahab and her family were removed to a safe camp outside the city, – a type of the rapture.  (Joshua 6:23)

But interestingly, as Jericho fell, God pronounced a curse upon the city. He said that it would never rise again and those who tried would die. (Joshua 6:26) Jericho has been rebuilt now, but not on the original site. I have been there.

Why did God curse those who would try to rebuild Jericho? It was because they stood in the way of Israel’s journey to the Promised Land, and tried to obstruct God’s plans, and anyone standing in God’s way to bring Israel to their spiritual Promised Land now, is equally cursed.

There is a message right here for all you churches of replacement theology, and all the world’s anti-Semites! You are cursed!

The name Jericho means, “fragrance.” Coming from a flower called the “Rose of Jericho.”

But interestingly, there are two plants called the “Rose of Jericho” The other is a counterfeit or the false one, and is steeped in satanic superstition.

So, now we see in type, Israel destroying opposition to her call to spiritual salvation, but right there at the cross-over point is the counterfeit messiah – the antichrist.

It was Babylon, which was also cursed and told it was never to rise again. (Jeremiah 51:64, Isaiah 13:20) The original city cannot ever rise due to this curse, but what has arisen is the whole end-time world-system with its whore religion. End-time Babylon, as the world system, is standing in the way of Israel fulfilling her God-given, unique promises.

Israel, do not fear the gods of Babylon, or Egypt, or Jericho, or any nation or religion that stands in your way. Do not fear Europe today, Islam today, or the gods of the mass-media.

Jeremiah42:11 “Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon of whom you are afraid, says the Lord, for I am with you to save you and deliver you.”

The message from heaven is: Know God’s plans and don’t get in His way.

Walls and fighting the good fight:

As we head for the climactic culmination of the greatest drama of all time, we see the very things God stands for, being undermined and attacked, simultaneously in many nations.

The messages of God from heaven are in the Bible, right here:

Acts 17:26-27 “He has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on the earth and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries (walls) of their habitation.”

Here is Satan’s view on walls:

Isaiah 10:13 “By the strength of my hand I have done it...I have removed the boundaries of the people, and robbed their treasuries.”

Okay, so walls and boundaries around nations are clearly Gods will for nations, but why?

It is “So that the people should seek the Lord, in the hope that they may find Him, for in Him we live and move and have our being.” (Acts 17:27-28) The only place of true international borderless unity between peoples is “In Him.”

In Him the middle wall of division is broken down and true unity exists. But outside of Him, all the error, sin and unrighteousness remains. Walls are to keep evil out and righteousness in. It is God’s way for this world until the Millennium.

Israel has to fight to keep many enemies out, and themselves protected. That is all about to intensify as their spiritual awakening nears. We as believers also have to fight to keep many enemies out, and keep spiritual walls of protection in place.

►Soldiers who flee are traitors and betrayers, just like conscientious objectors. (Numbers 32:6-7, read it!)The cost of giving up the spiritual fight is far too great – eternally so. It also affects the intensity of the light. If some lights go out, it dims the overall light!

Nehemiah 4:14-15 “...Do not be afraid of them (Israel’s enemies). Remember the Lord great and awesome, and fight for your brethren, your sons, your daughters, your wives and your houses. And it happened that when our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had brought their counsel to nothing, that all of us returned to the wall, everyone to his work.”

(Remember, from the previous edition, the counsel of the mass media being turned to foolishness!)

It is the enemy on the outside that wants to reach in and silence and twist God’s word.

Have a look at this amazing verse written nearly 2000 years ago:

Acts 4:18 “They called them and commanded them not to speak at all in the name of Yeshua.”

Isn’t that the voice of CNN, BBC, Sky and others?

Psalm 124:6-8 “Blessed be the Lord, who has not given us as prey to their teeth. Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped. Our help is in the name of the Lord who made heaven and earth.”

Abortion: Mass-murder by the modern elite.

No one can prove that life does not begin at conception. But let’s go to the Bible.

The message from Heaven is in the Bible. It is right here:

Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; before you were born, I sanctified you, and I ordained you as a prophet to the nations.”

Luke 1:41-42 “It happened when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary that the babe leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. Then she spoke out with a loud voice saying, ‘Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.”

Psalm 22:10 “...From my mother’s womb, You have been my God.”

►Now, for those who have had an abortion and have repented (seriously) and also for those who had young children die, before the age of accountability, or the mentally impaired: and such like, for those who wonder where their innocent child who died has gone, take comfort:

John 9:39-41 “For judgement I came into the world, that those who do not see may see, and those who see may made blind...If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, ‘We see.’ Therefore your sin remains.”

Everyone is born into Adam’s sin and everyone needs to be born-again out of it, except those referred to here, “who have no sin” because of their innocence.  They are covered.

Here is the incredible thing: In this verse above, our Lord says that the “blind have no sin”! They are innocent.  Obviously it’s not talking about physical blindness. There is no accountability where there is no sin. Those aborted children and others I’ve mentioned above, are saved and free.

This verse above is a great relief and comfort for many! If it applies to you – embrace it.

For me, this also relates to dogs! They are innocent and without sin! (Don’t send me emails!)

By the way, the present Holocaust of mass-murder of the unborn did not come by democratic vote in any nation in the world, but by a handful of stupid, cursed, evil, “intellectual” God-hating tyrants.

More on abortion: Exodus21:22-25, Leviticus 20:2 (Sacrifices to Molech included burning of the aborted.)

How do you bring the antichrist and his works onto the stage? Veiled and in darkness!

Religion, the devil’s Trojan horse:

True biblical Christianity is not a religion. It is a living relationship. Religion is a law and works-based counterfeit, always at odds with living truth.

Cain represented works-based religion. (1 John 3:12) He offered as a sacrifice to God that which God rejected and called evil. It was the work of his hands from tilling the land. Abel represents God’s way. He offered a blood sacrifice to God, which He accepted.

Cain hated Abel as a result of God accepting his offering, and murdered him. Cain became the first murderer and Abel the first martyr. Today Cain, (religion) still hates Abel (God’s ways)

The ways of Cain are the ways of end-time religion. We see this in end-time murder and martyrdom. (Revelation 6:9, 20:4) How amazing, that in all theses ages, nothing has changed!

Do you see why law and works based religion hates faith and grace based relationship with God? Never the twain shall meet! Now have a look at these two shocking verses below:

John 8:37 “I know that you are Abraham’s descendants (Pharisees), but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you.” (Matthew 12:14, John 11:53, Mark 3:6)

John 5:18 “The Jews (Pharisees) sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.”

The way of Cain is the way of the antichrist. The way of Abel is the way of God.

Today we are heading for the war of the ways! This is why those under law and works can never walk with those of faith and grace and why ultimately, those in bondage to the ways of Cain reject God’s word and seek to kill His followers.

How can these two walk together?  (Amos 3:3, Matthew 6:24)

The message from heaven is: know these things, and takes sides firmly and securely.

Migrants:

Islam is a Trojan designed to get right into the midst of Israel and hijack God’s plans. It is importing anti-Semitism at the same time. But Israel, wisely, won’t let the migrants in. Nevertheless, Islam’s goals are occupation, settlement and take over.

Muslim immigrants flooding into nations around the world are a Trojan. It is a smokescreen to attack the word and ways of God from within the host nations.

The Quran doctrine of hirah (migration): “A Muslim immigrant should not integrate with the host society. His stay should show some degree of fake integration for the purpose of deception until the purpose of Islamization is achieved in the host society, through jihad.”

Sura 8:74 “Those who emigrated and performed jihad for Allah’s sake are the true believers; they shall receive forgiveness and generous provisions.”

The funny thing is that the female news anchors and reporters of CNN, BBC, Sky and others of the mass-media, are fighting with their voices for the rights of Islam, which will destroy woman’s rights and set them back 1500 years! Imagine how stupid the media must be!

The mass-media are no longer the free press. They have a godless monkey on their back, influencing those who have rejected the truth of God’s. They ration the truth.

The media helps the devil in “weakening the nations,” (Isaiah 14:12) so that he can bring in total control. (Isaiah 10:14) Their role as controller-in-chief will get legs in the tribulation period, like never before.

With God removed from society, democracy itself becomes a slithering monster which modifies itself, and changes its value systems, transforming its own heart all the time, becoming indispensible to whichever “truth” rules the roost now.

Democracy will soon become the god of the people, with the true God cast out so that its god of tyranny can fool and rule the ignorant masses.

The mass-media collectively form an ungodly protection of agreement around their evil ways to keep the blind masses subject to themselves and their god.

Sometime nations need to act with determined offensiveness; otherwise they are forever on the back-foot defending themselves against the march or numerous Trojans.

Satan’s big purpose is to disarm you of your spiritual weapons (gifts of the Spirit) and to disarm nations and the masses, turning them into feeble, foolish, pacifists, ready for slaughter.

When Satan sends out a dove of peace from his Trojan, beware, it a hungry vulture in disguise!

Beware of the many subliminal messages all around us today. They are Trojans of evil,disguised and hidden from plain sight.

See and hear the messages from God:

Light and sight are not the same thing. Spiritual sight is needed in the light. We have the two related words: “Gnosis” and “Epignosis.” The former means knowledge, while the latter means knowledge from above, or revelation knowledge.

In these days particularly, we need truth enlightened with revelation knowledge of the scriptures, otherwise it all remains dead letter.

Now, for your benefit, here is a little discourse of profound importance. This is a message from heaven from the book of Proverbs. They are simply a few verses strung together. But please note how appropriate, true and revolutionary they are:

Proverbs 29: 8-27 “Scoffers ensnare a city, but a wise man turns away wrath...The bloodthirsty hate the blameless, but the just seek his wellbeing...If a ruler pays attention to lies, all his servants become wicked (corrupt)...When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increases; but the righteous will see their fall...An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous, and he who is upright in the way, is an abomination to the wicked.”

Finally

The modern world has created a monumental, massive civilisation in all areas of life. In its waning and dying, it does not have the moral capacity to preserve it, because they have turned from God.

The masses are always wrong, in every generation. Many people don’t want the truth. They just want to be right and enshrine their opinions. They compare themselves among themselves and think they’re just fine! The big, all important factor of repentance is missing from them.

Why should we repent and renew ourselves and conserve our spiritual heritage? Simply because, It is God’s way and in most cases, we don’t know what we are losing, and we can’t go back to change things once we have stepped into eternity.

 Far too many Christians are in a hazy twilight zone, half transformed and non-repented. They are half-baked.

A love for Israel and God’s plan for her, essentially comes supernaturally. It is like the new birth...God births it in you. That forever kills all arguments and sets your heart on fire with a new passion and dimension in your life of love for Him.

Edition 455: February 5^th 2019

Messages from heaven:

Introduction:

Due to the lateness and urgency of the hour and the prompting of the Spirit of God, with confirmation from my main prayer partner, I must deal more fervently with Israel right now.

These messages are essentially for those left behind after the rapture, both Jews and Gentiles

So, I encourage you to save them, or print them out or do what you feel necessary for them to fall into the hands of people in the tribulation period. But they are also for us all now.

I received an amazing email from a friend, supporter and reader. She said: “The Prophetic Scroll will be very much recognised by the native olive branches (Israel) as they burst into bloom just after the rapture. I encourage you to be even more mindful of our Jewish brothers and sisters, almost like a baton being handed over to those who will run with it.”

The rapture ends the church dispensation and begins the final seven years of the Old Covenant period, now on hold, called Daniel’s 70^th week. (of years) It is also called “The time of Jacob’s trouble” and the “tribulation.”

The seven-year tribulation marks huge dispensational changes in God’s dealings with the world. This is when Israel becomes the main focus of prophetic things. “All Israel will be saved.” (“All “being the entire remnant, and not every single Jew) Huge numbers of Gentiles will also be saved.

God has chosen you, Israel for a grand purpose:

Here is the purpose in a nutshell:

Israel: ●Elected ●Rebelled ●Rejected ●Regathered ●Repented ●Accepted.

But it does not end there. After the “acceptance” comes God’s grand finale, which is Israel being used as His instrument to bring salvation to the world.

Israel, stand strong and look to your God. As you repent, your eyes will open to your glorious Messiah and His grand plans for you.

Your calling is holy and sure. (2 Timothy 1:9) Be secure in that.

Yes, you were chosen ages ago to be God’s witnesses of His good news to the world. He has not forsaken that promise, and now it is your time, Israel.

Joshua 21:45 “Not a word failed of any good thing which the Lord had spoken to the house of Israel. All came to pass.” (Joshua 23:14)

Exodus 19:4-6 “You (Moses) have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagle’s wings, and brought you to Myself. Now therefore if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine, and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests, and a holy nation.”

God’s ultimate purpose for you Israel, and you, dear Christian, is to “bring you to Himself!”

The command from God to the world:

“Let My people go so that they may worship Me.” (Exodus 5:1, Exodus 8:1, Exodus 9:1)

The world, blinded by its pride and its god, will intensify its stand against you, Israel, but the world has chosen the wrong way, and you Israel, with God’s help will bring many in the world to their knees in salvation, and the rest to their knees in defeat.

We know the story of the birth of the Arab / Israeli conflict. It started in Rebecca’s womb at the birth of her twins Esau and Jacob. Esau, being the first born of the two, had the birthright, which included the land. Jacob had his name changed to Israel and became the father of Israel and the Jews.

Esau was the father of the Arab nations, which today would include the Palestinians. He did not respect his birthright and sold it (a legal transaction) to Jacob. (Genesis 25:23)

But now we have the arising problem: Esau wants his birthright back! The nations of the world in their blindness are assisting Esau’s lies claiming that they have a right to the land.

In this very simple, easy to understand situation, we have the entirety of the Arab (Palestinian) / Israeli issue encapsulated. It all began in Rebecca’s womb and will end at Armageddon!

The world wants Israel to capitulate to Arab / Palestinian demands for land, or do they? That’s the smoke screen! The world and its god, Satan wants to destroy God’s plan for Israel, to be saved, and to bring salvation to the world, and worship to the true God.

God’s divine election relating to Israel, smashes the god of democracy in the head. Modern, intellectual, liberal, humanism claims Israel for the world, but God claims Israel as His!

• Embezzlement: Misappropriation of another’s possessions to take ownership thereof.
• Larceny: Theft of property of another to permanently deprive the legitimate owner, under false pretences.

These terms could well be applied to the Palestinian claim to the land of Israel and Jerusalem. They call it the “occupation” of what they deem to be their land, by Israel. But God has occupied the land by His word and with His many promises to Israel.

Their well-used methods are simply indoctrination, propaganda, or revolution by gradualism!

So, world – “Let My people go,” from your insanity. Just like Christians, they will never be yours!

World, please read this verse below and note your great failure and who gets let go!

Zechariah 8:22-23 “Many peoples and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the Lord. In those days, ten men of every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we heard that God is with you.”

You see world, you won’t “let My people go,” to fulfil their God-given call. But God will destroy you and they will go to Him. Then His eternal promise will come to pass as many within the nations come to Israel to be turned to the living God.

Say hello to your coming doom, world!

Psalm 114:7 “Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob.”

World peace... hell’s way:

• Lenin (One of the architects of communism): “World peace is communist world control.”
• Islam: “World peace is an Islamic world with no resistance, and Sharia law ruling.”
• Hitler: “World peace will come for a thousand years under Nazi rulership.”
• Catholics : We will bring world peace into being.”
• Antichrist: I will control the world, its religions, and its economy by strength and domination. (Isaiah 10:13-14, Revelation 17:17, 13:7)

The common denominator here is forced control with the Jews enslaved, removed or killed, so that God’s plan will be frustrated. That is the way of Satan, and nothing has changed.

►Hitler’s mentor, Dietrich Eckart, an occultist, when he first met Hitler said, “Here is the long awaited Messiah!” Eckart became known as the “High priest of the Nazis”. (With no Jews.)

►Interestingly, Constantine, the main architect of the Catholic church called himself Pontifex Maximus, meaning, the high priest of the heathen.

But God said of Israel (the Jews) “You will be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation. (Exodus 19:6) (The true church also bears this title.)

Isaiah 61:6-7 “You (Israel) shall be named the Priests of the Lord, men shall call you the Servants of our God. You shall eat the riches of the Gentiles and in their glory you shall boast. Instead of your shame, you shall have double honour. Therefore in their land, they shall possess double; everlasting joy shall be theirs.”

World peace will arrive when God’s plans for Israel and Jerusalem are fulfilled.

World, you are soon going to make your great fatal, fateful mistake on the plains of Israel and in the city of Jerusalem! (Zechariah 12:3) World, why are you so stupid that you can’t even see the pattern in history which has already happened, never mind your future reflected in that history?

A message to the world’s mass-media:

You are and will do the works of your god. You are doomed.

King David had a trusted counsellor named Ahithophel. But he arose in pride and became bitter and gave David the wrong advice. In many ways Ahithophel was a type of the voice of the media.

2 Samuel 15:31 “They told David, ‘Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.’ So David prayed: ‘O Lord, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”

Interestingly, the name ‘Ahithophel’ means “Brother of ruin and foolishness.”

Mass-media, your proud counsel is your own ruin and foolishness!

►A wise believer will pray for the counsel of the media to be turned to foolishness in his own lifel, and not be influenced.

There is another important message here: Ahithophel was an insider. This is a powerful type of the churches of replacement theology and their evil counsel. They are a Trojan.

One of the main aims of the false church will be to obstruct God’s plans for Israel. This is why the mass-media loves false, fallen religion.

Being an ex media man myself, I have a heart for them. My prayer has always been that some get saved. I know some who have, but the great majority will not because of the nature of the industry and its connection to the world-system.

Those in the media who have seen the light, and will in the tribulation period – you will have a new powerful role, with new insight and understanding. Glory to you!

Where did the chariot go?

Elijah was walking along with Elisha and a whirlwind appeared, and suddenly Elijah was raptured up to heaven in a chariot of fire within a whirlwind! (2 Kings2 11-12)

But this was an odd chariot. Elisha, in his shock, called it the “chariot of Israel.”

This occurred just after Elijah’s miracle of the parting of the water, so that he and Elisha could cross on dry ground at a place called Gilgal (2 Kings 2:8)

Gilgal is where the Israelites crossed into the Promise Land (Joshua 4:1-9)

So what we have here is a type of the rapture, just as the children of Israel cross into their new, spiritual promised land.

The rapture is the shock that will cause the Jews to become jealous and angry, leading to their salvation. (Romans 10:19) The rapture is a “chariot” carrying a spectacular message to Israel!

The rapture is a “banner” and a baton!

The great danger for the world and the church:

It is a huge thing to come against the Jews and God’s plans for them. You will be cursed. That applies to individuals and entire nations. Anyone blessing Israel will be blessed, and anyone cursing Israel will be cursed. (Genesis 12:3, Numbers 24:9)

We see that Pharaoh refused to release the Jews when Moses commanded him to. This was the reason God hardened his heart. After God’s intervention he did “let My people”, but then still pursued the children of Israel, leading to the deaths of his own armies in the Red Sea.

Due to Israel’s rebellion they too had their hearts hardened, which is evident even today. (Ezekiel 3:7, Hebrews 3:8) What a terrible thing to have a hardened heart in these days!

Ephesians 4:17-18 “Do not walk as the rest of the Gentiles do in the futility of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their heart.”

A hard heart is the open door for demons and spirits of anti-Semitism, replacement theology and Jew hatred in these days.

Beware; these are powerful, evil spirits at work. You can’t reason with them. You will succumb. You must cast them out of your own life.

The funny thing is the very opposite of replacement theology will be the order of the day, in the tribulation period. The Jews will be the main focus of the work of God and the left-behind religious elite become part of the false prophet.

The early church reached the whole known world then. (Colossians 1:23) Then came the Catholic-created dark ages, replacement theology, anti-Semitism and Jew hatred, by the fallen church. The Jews as God’s evangelists in the tribulation will reach the whole world with gospel!

The word “inextricable” means, “Impossible to be separated.” It applies perfectly, inextricably to Israel, Jerusalem, the Jews and God’s irrevocable call and plan. You can’t remove it. (Romans 11:29)

The world would like Israel to become part of their world – not called, and not chosen, with no separate, holy, godly, calling and destiny. That’s why the world hates them!

Israel’s birth-pangs and spiritual birth:

A birth is a painful experience, but produces victory. What the world is trying to do now is abort the process and kill God’s work in His people. No wonder Satan’s world supports abortion.

Israel, the people and the city have suffered much through history. The birth is about to manifest.

Suffering makes you beautiful! It may not make you pretty, but it makes you deeply beautiful.

Isaiah 52:1 “Awake, awake! Put on your strength O Zion; put on your beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city.”

Yes, Israel, you are on the way to eternal, deep, spiritual beauty, but there are pains to endure.

Isaiah 61:3 “To them who mourn in Zion, I will give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning.”

Zechariah 13:8-9 “It shall come to pass in all the land, says the Lord, that two thirds of it shall be cut off and die, but one third shall be left in it. I will bring the one third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say; ‘This is My people’. And each one will say, ‘The Lord is My God.’”

Some say that above verse relates to various historic events and wars like the Holocaust, but not so. It is prophetic because of the fact that the remnant are brought to salvation in Messiah, which is still future.

This verse above, speaks of part of the coming new Holocaust in which Israel will suffer great loss, but only temporarily on her way to victory.

Today the majority of the world’s youth know nothing of the Holocaust, or of the Messiah. The youth of Israel know all too well about the Holocaust, but they don’t know the Messiah (yet)! That is all about to change.

Zechariah 2:8 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: He has sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you, for he who touches you (Jerusalem) touches the apple of His eye.”

As the birth approaches Israel repents.

Hosea 10:12 “...Break up your fallow ground (hard hearts) for it is time to seek the Lord, till He comes and reigns righteousness on you.”

Romans 11:25-27 “I do not desire, brethren that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that hardening in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in. And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer shall come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob. For this is My covenant with them, when I take away their sins.”

The world (Pharaoh / Egypt) will not repent of their hard hearts. Israel will repent!

Ezekiel 36:25-27 “I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you (Israel) have profaned in their midst. The nations shall know that I am the Lord, when I am hallowed in you before them. I will take you from among the nations and gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you...I will put My Spirit within you...”

Ezekiel 39:29 “I will not hide My face from them anymore; for I shall have poured out My Spirit on the house of Israel, says the Lord God.”

Israel, today you are blind to the beautiful painting that you are. One day very soon, as the veil lifts you will see your own spiritual beauty! Jump for joy Israel!

Israel: Magnificent promises:

Isaiah 49:6 “I also will give you (Israel) as a light to the Gentles, that you should be My salvation to the ends of the earth.”

Isaiah 49:16 “See I have inscribed you (Zion) on the palms of My hands; your walls are continually before Me.”

Isaiah 62:4 “You shall no longer be termed forsaken, nor shall your land be termed desolate.”

Isaiah 62:12 “They shall call them (Israel) the Holy People, the Redeemed of the Lord; and you shall be called Sought Out, a City not Forsaken.”

Acts 13:47 “I have set you (Jews) to be a light to the Gentiles that you should be for salvation to the ends of the earth.”

Isaiah 60:2-3 “Behold the darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you (Jews), and His glory will be seen upon you. The Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”

Finally

The big, well-used (rightly so) chant of the Jews is “Never again” in relation to the Holocaust. But God is saying “Never again” too. He is saying; “Never again” will My people forsake Me. He is saying, “Never again” will I forsake them or their land or their city!

When the author walks onto the stage, the play is over.

Edition 454: January 29^th 2019

The importance of hell:

Introduction:

This is a highly positive edition, perhaps the most positive you will read in a long time. It is positive in that it puts back a major doctrine of Messiah into its rightful place, after it has been ignored or removed by blind guides in pulpits.

Isaiah 14:12-14 “How you are fallen, from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations. You said you will ascend into heaven and exalt your throne above the stars of God...You said – ‘I will be like the Most High.’ Yet you shall be brought down to Sheol (hell), to the lowest depths of the pit.” (Luke 10:18)

Some names for hell in the scriptures include: Hell, Hades, Sheol, Gehenna, Tartarus, Outer darkness, and the Lake of fire. There are many other types of hell seen in the Bible.

There are various degrees of eternal reward for believers, and there are degrees of punishment in hell for unbelievers. Here are some appropriate verses: Matthew 10:14-15, Matthew 11:20-21, Hebrews 10:29, Revelation 20:12.

God is the creator of hell and He has the keys!

Revelation 1:18 “I am He who lives and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Hades and death.”

The principle of hell:

We see a most important list of the six foundational doctrines of Messiah for the church in Hebrews 6:1-2. Every single doctrine in the Bible finds it place somewhere on this foundation. The final doctrine is “Eternal judgement.” This includes judgement itself, and hell. Please note that it is an “elementary foundational doctrine.”

As a teacher / pastor, you have no right or authority to remove any part of the foundation of growth in Messiah, for your flock, because you deem it uncouth or unpopular! You have no right to change it, or water it down as most have done...just when it is needed most!

Canned, dead religion has created heaven on earth and no hell, except by name, and even that, many blind ministers won’t even use. New doctrines that exclude hell are all false, and their authors are blind to the demons on their back.

An obvious essential principle is to warn, as a danger approaches. The nearer it gets the more frequent and louder the warning must be. Yet when it comes to eternal judgement and hell, the opposite is true within many churches.

Judgment and hell:

The one big thing the unsaved world, and media in particular have not bargained for, is coming judgement. Judgement is the great revealer. It sees deeper than any radar, with perfect sight, and has perfect memory. It is the spotter, the locater and the red flag!

It hides nothing! We as believers have the great privilege of having ourselves cleansed now by the judgement of the cross, and by judging ourselves now as we go forward.

In Eden God answered sin with judgement. At Babel, He answered sin with judgment. At the flood He answered sin with judgement. At Sodom, He answered sin with judgement. At the cross He answered the sin of the world with judgment.

Do you think you will escape judgement?

If you think about it, judgement is only bad and harmful if you love sin and have no intention of repenting from your wicked ways.

Judgement destroys sin, it purges and cleanses. It is good – very good!

Only those in darkness can live in peace in this world of sin. But at Armageddon they will run and hide from the light of judgement.

The characteristics of hell:

Hell is not a place of correction. That is a hell-born Catholic concept. Hell is a place of eternal punishment. Correction is for this life. There is no hope of escape from hell, once there.

Isaiah 38:18 “Sheol (hell) cannot thank You, death cannot praise You; those who go down to the pit cannot hope for Your truth.”

Hell is a place of torment, punishment and suffering – for eternity.

Luke 16:23 “Being in torment in Hades, he lifted up his eyes...”

2 Peter 2:4 “God did not spare the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, reserved for judgement.”

A central characteristic of hell is that it comes after judgement and is therefore just and fair, being based on God’s law.

If there was no law, no one could legally be sent to hell.

If you remove the law, there is nothing to repent of, because law identifies what sin is. Law is for sinners. If you remove it, because of the nature of man’s heart, you have anarchy and tyranny.

1 Timothy 1:9 “The law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and sinners...”

Romans 7:7 “...I would not have known sin, except through the law...”

I am not referring here to living under the law rather than grace, but that is another subject.

Satan’s ace is to get rid of law so there will be lawlessness and get rid of hell, so there will be no punishment. But there is no such thing as lawlessness and no such thing as no hell.

Charley Finny taught on how to preach to get no enduring results: “Preach love and grace with no law or accountability. Love with no law, and repentance gets lots of decisions for Christ, but no enduring results.”

(Dr. Finny was a hellfire preacher about 250 years ago, who has the record of the most converts remaining faithful to the Lord till their death. He was one of my spiritual fathers.)

The tragic results of removing hell from your thinking:

The removal of hell-teaching from the church makes the church inoffensive, with no fear of the Lord, repentance, or centrality of the cross. It fills the church with twisted, popular doctrines and nice happy, spiritually blind, dumb people.

Tolerance of, and relevance to the modern ways of the world, is simply tolerance of thoroughly modern Satan.

Silence and neutrality in the face of sin, gives it licence. It does not mean that the consequences, judgement and hell, have been neutralised!

Dante, the Italian poet of the Middle Ages wrote: “The darkest places of hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality in times of moral crisis.”

Satan’s ace is love and peace with sin neutralised and hell removed, no righteousness, and no judgement to come.

If Satan can remove hell from the Christian’s doctrine there would be all manner of evil in the church – just like it is today!

If you could remove sin, evil and hell, you would have a terrible, evil, sin-filled heaven.

Fools think they can remove judgement and hell because they remove the words for it!

If you eliminate wrath or severity you also interfere with grace. If there is no sin-guilt there is no need of acquittal, which means there is no need of grace and mercy. Your salvation is then as valuable as a rotten pea instead of a pearl of great price.

Grace and mercy shine brightly in view of hell. Where there is no hell, grace and mercy are dull to non-existent.

Avoiding hell-teaching, plays right into the hands of hell.

World leaders in hell:

Isaiah 14:9 “Hell from beneath is excited about you, to meet you at your coming. It stirs up the dead for you, all the chief ones of the earth, it has raised up from their thrones, all the kings of the nations.”

Ezekiel 32:21 “The strong and the mighty shall speak out of the midst of hell with those who help him...”

Isaiah 5:14 (Amp) “Sheol the unseen realm of the dead, has enlarged its appetite, and opened its mouth without measure, and nobility and her multitude and pomp, descend into it.”

Psalm 9:17 “The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.”

You could add to this all the celebrities and famous entertainers of the day as well, with very few exceptions!

Some general verses on hell:

Psalm 55:15 “Let death seize them; let them go down alive to hell.”

Proverbs 27:20 “Hell and destruction are never full. So the eyes of man are never satisfied.”

Isaiah 33:14 “...Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?”

Matthew 3:12 “His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly purge His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn. But He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

Matthew 22:13 “...Bind him hand and foot, take him away and cast him into outer darkness, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

Revelation 20:10 “The devil who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

Proverbs 23:13-14 “Do not withhold correction from a child; if you beat him with a rod, he will not die, you shall delver his soul from hell.”

Romans 2:5 “In accordance with your hard and impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgement of God.”

John 3:36 “He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”

How many go to hell:

Obviously, it’s impossible to know, but we do see some scary indicators in the scriptures.

Only those on the “narrow road” are saved, while those on the “wide road go to destruction.” (Matthew 7:13-14)

The theme of many and few, with many going to destruction and few being saved, repeats often in the Bible. Here are some of the verses:

Luke 13:23. Revelation 3:4, 1 Peter 3:20, Matthew 9:37

Many will seek to be saved but will not. They want salvation, but are not prepared to change their ways and meet the conditions. (Luke 13:23-24)

I strongly encourage you, even if saved for a long time, to read through the verses under the “Salvation” tab on the right hand side of this website.

God desires all to be saved. (1 Timothy 2:4, 2 Peter 3:9) But we see that He predestines those to be saved that He, in His foreknowledge knows will turn to Him. (Ephesians 1:4)

If you are truly born of God, there will be signs and fruits: “He who is born of God overcomes the world”. (1 John 5:4) Those born of God are given authority to become children of God (change) (John 1:2) “He who is born of God loves.” (1 John 4:7)

Galatians 5:22 lists the fruits of the Spirit of God in your life. They are: Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control.

The fruits of the spirit of Satan in people are seen in the previous verses, Galatians 5:18-21: Legalism, adultery, fornication, uncleanness, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery , hatred contentions, jealousy, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissentions, heresies, envy, murder, drunkenness, revelries and the like.

John 10:10 “The thief (Satan) comes to kill steal and destroy.” He is the “father of lies.” (John 8:44)

Churches who will go to hell:

The messages to the seven churches in the Revelation are profound, accurate assessments of the church. These messages relate to seven historic churches, to all churches today, and then there is an amazing prophetic plot of the course church history here as well.

Every church can find its identity within these seven. (Revelation chapters 2 &3)

The church of Thyatira is interpreted by most (including me) as relating to the Catholic, and other orthodox churches. These are clearly not saved. (Revelation 2:20-24)

The church at Sardis relates to the spiritually dead churches of the reformation. (Revelation 3:1-3)

The church of Laodicea, the lukewarm church, relates to many end-time, spirit-less churches. It is spat out. (Revelation 3:15-16)

Much of the church today is entering a new dark age of gross blindness. Its clergy are dead bones dressed in Nicolaitan fancy, garb.

There is a direct relationship between the decline into sin of many churches as well as society, with the removal of hell from teaching and preaching.

Hell-teaching creates spiritual balance and godly health.

Ministers who don’t teach clearly on hell have no fear of the Lord in them, none of them! That should be a giant warning light and red flag right there!

By refusing to preach on hell because it’s not politically correct, or for any reason, legitimises sin, and gives it license.

Of course there is a misuse of the preaching of hell, in the form of brow-beating. But that is the case with other important doctrines too. That does not justify its removal.

Hell and severity is an appropriate biblical tool of warning used by our Lord and His disciples.

►Love warns, hate does not!

Ezekiel 3:18 “When I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way to save his life, that same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand.”

Those who won’t teach on wrath, judgement and hell are man pleasers. They seek the approval of man. They have the blood of many on their hands, just like Herod who had John the Baptist executed to find approval from his guests.

Here at The Prophetic Scroll, you will always get your needed dose of heaven and hell-teaching!

“It’s a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” (Hebrews 10:31) But it is also a fearful thing to be loved by the living God!

The role of the mass-media in sending people to hell:

“He who has an ear let him hear” Is a commonly used phrase in the Bible. It implies that only certain types can hear God. You have to meet the conditions. If not, you automatically have ears to hear the world through its god, Satan and his voice, the mass-media.

As we approach the great end-time dramas, Satan knows his time is very short. (Revelation 12:12) And as a result, turns up the volume of his media circus.

“The spiritual man judges all things.” (1 Corinthians 2:15) He will not be influenced by the godless media. The mass-media judges all things according to its fallen, polluted, skewed, demonic base. The “spiritual man” must receive from God’s media and reject the world’s media.

We are to “Love the truth. (2 Thessalonians 2:10) We are to know that the “truth is the foundational pillar of the church.” (1 Timothy 3:15) But we must see that this is a great hindrance to the love of world and the love of self. That is why Satan is attacking the very pillars of truth today.

Here is the shocking purpose of Satan as the antichrist, preparing the world for hell:

Daniel 8:12 “An army was given over to the horn (antichrist) to oppose the daily sacrifices (in the new temple) and he cast the truth down to the ground. He did all this and prospered.”

Today, more and more, the battle is for the truth. The battle is for the truth in you.

Judgement is not according to the media’s world-view. It is not according to intellectual, liberal, democratic ways. Judgement is not according to one-world globalism or the variable values of situation ethics. It is not even according to love, but is according to truth.

The United States of the Earth, a New World Empire, a New World Order, Globalism, and Multilateralism can only come about by domination, of the dumb masses, violently, or by their voluntary capitulation. It can only come about by the light of the world, the church, going out and the “truth being cast down in the street.” (Isaiah 59:14)

One of Satan’s main strategies (also seen in the media) is to destroy the will to resist him. He uses: Demoralisation, neutralisation, personal disarmament, demilitarisation, through the removal of the spiritual warfare gifts of the Spirit.

One of the most powerful factors of salvation is release from guilt and sin in forgiveness. Heaven will be eternally holy, free from sin and evil. Hell will not. It will be a place of punishment, but also of ongoing evil and torment.

The following words relate to those in hell: Regret, anguish, grief, sorrow, and panic.

The following words relate to heaven: Peace calmness, comfort, assurance, delight, joy, and relief.

Finally

The rapture of the true church will take place in an atomic second, and it will be irreversible. There will also be a “rapture” into hell, also irreversible, at the Second Coming! (Matthew 25:31-34 Matthew 24:28)

Our God will wipe away every tear, all death, suffering, pain, mourning and sorrow, but not for the unbeliever!

There is extreme contentment and satisfaction in living for eternity. Make every moment count for eternity.

A radical fanatic is one who loves the Lord more than you do. A bigot is someone who despises the powers of evil more than you do. Both are deeply loved by our Lord.

What sets your soul on fire? Is it the things of the world or heaven?

At the end of the day (your life), you will know the truth according to God and not your own ideas anymore, or the media or your family or friends. You will stand absolutely alone before the living, eternal God who has the keys to your eternal future in His hands.

So then, the doctrine, preaching and teaching of eternal judgment completes the all important, elementary foundation for all believers.

I took the background picture in the giant sycamore tree forest in Mkuze Game Reserve. I thought the base looked a bit like a crouching lion, so I put a lion into the picture.

Shalom and grow in His Grace!

 

Edition 453: January 22^nd 2019

Treasures of prophecy: Part 2

Introduction:

Join me in another treasure hunt. We are looking for valuable treasure and the speaking word of God through prophecies and verses in the Bible for today. Like the last edition, this is a collection of “revelations” on a wide range of subjects.

Bible prophecy makes up one third of the content of the Bible. Only one in five prophecies relates to the first coming of our Lord, all the others, relate to the events surrounding the Second Coming. (Including the rapture) Our Lord spoke more of hell than heaven. The pattern of fulfilment of all prophecy is consistent – literal, which of course means that the rest will be fulfilled in the same way.

You can’t be safe without prophecy in your spiritual make up! Bear in mind that prophecy also relates to your personal life. It is the living God who makes you wise, while Satan makes you stupid - always!

Importance of prophecy:

There is a blinding, obscuring fog descending on the church, in that it has turned off the light of prophecy and even the rapture! The funny thing is Bible prophecy says prophecy will be cast aside in the end days.

There is much confusion about prophecy, the rapture and Israel’s place in prophecy, in many churches, but it is Satan who is the god of confusion.

The heart of true Bible prophecy distinguishes between the true and false and identifies the true Messiah from the antichrist.

In most cases there is a tragic link between those who reject prophecy and those who will go with the antichrist and who will come against Israel. (The two are doctrinally linked!)

Towers of faulty thinking:

A great worldwide delusion is: God is merciful and loving and would never act in wrath. But He is ruthless and wrathful too! He is good and severe!

One of the great faults and errors today, is that people think that because they believe something it must be true or valid. That is pure ego affirmation! Likewise they think if they don’t believe something, that settles it and it’s not true. They think they can be God’s judge, jury and executioner!

People think they are supreme judges controlling the truth from their elevated throne of pride, with God kneeling before them. They presume to be God’s editors.

Christians, especially teachers, with no active fear of the Lord in them, are to be feared most.

Romans 3:17-18 “The way of peace they have not known, there is no fear of God before their eyes.”

Idiots think truth is a matter of democracy!

The fear of rejection is a plague today.

Because people fear rejection, knowingly or not, they use all sorts of methods to gain acceptance. They seek the approval of man rather than of God.

Be careful of rejection. The problem is that Satan is always looking for someone whom he may devour. Rejection is a hole in your heart, looking to be filled. It also opens you up to possible demonic infiltration. Vultures often sit and wait their turn. They are opportunists!

If the consequences of rejection have wrecked you, you need to identify it as sin, and repent.

It is fallen Freudian psychology that says, “Man is not responsible for his actions.” It takes sides with the sin-nature, which is taking sides with Satan, against God’s ways. They never get free because they never repent of sin.

Most of man’s problems stem from a lack of purpose and meaning in life. These can only be found in the kingdom of God. In fact, you were called by God, before the foundation of the earth! It really is a meaningless existence with little purpose to be focussed on the temporary material world, which is all to wither away.

Stand strong, secure and solid as a rock:

End-time pressures are expanding rapidly, ready to explode.

Many will take these end-time pressures and be gloriously transformed, grow strong, secure and unshakable. Many will be swept away by the pressures.

When your heart is right isn’t it just wonderful to read a verse from the Bible and it comes alive and speaks to you as if it were God speaking right in front of you?

John 1:9 “He was the true Light which gives light to every man that comes into the world.”

According to this verse, all people are lit at birth. Life itself is light. Therefore when the unbeliever rejects God’s light, he replaces it with his own light, which is wrath-attracting darkness. (Luke 11:35)

Be open to God’s discipline and correction.

Discipline in fact gives you value. It makes you feel important enough to be corrected and be seen going the right way. A child with no discipline has no inherent value and ends up with a rejection complex and a totally wrecked character, especially when the pressure is on.

When you are disciplined as a believer, you understand your value in the kingdom. You see more clearly the enormous value of grace and salvation itself.

Truth about curses today:

One of the plagues of these end-times, which very people are aware of, is active curses on entire nations, political parties, and individuals.

Matthew 16:6 “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees”.

The leaven of the Pharisees is cursed legalism.

Leaven (yeast) grows, expands and spreads. That is the law of leaven. But emanating from certain types, it is poisonous and full of curses. Beware – few come out when trapped by it. In fact there were only two Pharisees in the Bible that escaped it.

Deuteronomy 28:1-2 “If you diligently obey the voice of the Lord...all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you. Verse 15 “If you do not obey the Lord all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you.

Note above, that both blessings and curses can “overtake you.” Don’t mess with things that carry curses. You are entrapping yourself.

Leaven, mixed into dough puffs it up. Spiritually, that is pride – proud, arrogant curse-producing poison. Religion is full of it. Law and works mixed with faith and grace will get you cursed!

Galatians 3:1-10 “O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you...As many as under the works of the law, are under the curse...”

Malachi 1:14 “Cursed be the deceiver.”

Today we have many ministries that are delivering pure deception – they are cursed and they are bringing the gullible under their curses.

Tragic self-imposed curses of Israel:

The Jews cursed themselves in two most tragic and insightful ways:

●As Barabbas the murderer was released and Yeshua sent to the cross, the Jews said, “His blood be upon us and our children and children’s children.” This self-generated curse is still playing out today!

●Amazingly, Pilate said to the Jews, “Shall I crucify your king?” They said, “We have no king but Caesar.” (John 19:15)

“Caesar” Strong’s G2541. “Kaisar”. Meaning: “Severed.”

But the Jews hated Caesar! Tragically, they’ve been serving the Caesar’s of the world until recently.

They have cursed themselves to serve the “severed” one, Satan which has seen them become severed from God during the church age. These two curses will soon end, but not before many Jews serve the ultimate severed Caesar – the antichrist.

Here we see the terrible situation of the Palestinians today, cursing Israel as their ancestors did many years ago.

Joshua 24:9-10 “Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab (Modern Palestinians) arose to make war against Israel, and sent and called Balaam, the son of Beor to curse you. (Israel).”

But here is God’s glorious and severe answer:

Numbers 23:8 “How shall I curse what God has not cursed, or denounce whom the Lord has not denounced.”

Genesis 12:3 “I will bless those who bless you, and curse him who curses you.”

Numbers24:9 “He bows down like a lion, and as a lion, who will rouse him? Blessed is he who blesses you and cursed is he who curses you.”

If you want to mess Israel – good luck, you fool!

Amazing rapture clothing:

In Revelation 19:8, 14 we see the bride and the army both in “fine, clean white linen – the righteous acts of the saints”. These terms relate only to the church and not angels. They are speaking of the church after rapture, rewarded, in heaven.

Please note: The marriage comes first, then the war! The church is seen saved and rewarded in heaven before returning with our Lord at the Second Coming to complete the war of all wars, dressed in fine pure white linen!

”This speaks wonderfully and powerfully of a pre-tribulation rapture!

The future of the media:

Hello broken, shattered destroyed mass-media!

Jerusalem will be a burdensome stone to all nations and he who tries to move it (divide it) will be broken! (Zechariah 12:3)

Today the mass-media, especially the bosses are on the same page with Lucifer. They have cast down God and exalted themselves in His place. Their “truth” is supreme, they think, but its source is the “father of lies” – the god of fake news!

Right at the end of the tribulation period we see a mighty destruction from God against all those who divided Jerusalem and came against Israel (Joel 3:2)

It is the mass media who are Satan’s voice in this regard, the voice of the world-system to the blind masses. They are the champions of true, deep anti-Semitism.

Psalm 33:10-12 “The Lord brings the counsel of the nations (media) to nothing; He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever...Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord.”

Psalm 55:9 “Destroy, O Lord and divide their tongues, for I have seen violence and strife in the city.”

Doors gates and keys:

●God Himself shut the door of the ark with Noah and family inside. (Genesis 7:16)

●The five foolish virgins amongst the ten were shut out. (Matthew 25:10).

●Our Lord is seen standing outside the door of the lukewarm, compromised church and knocking. (Revelation 3:20)

●The church at Philadelphia is given the key of David (Revelation 3:7, also seen in Isaiah 22:22). This key opens the doors for the Jews to Jerusalem.

●Luke 13:25-27 (The narrow way) “When the Master of the house has risen up and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock saying, Lord, Lord open for us and He will answer and say, ‘I do not know you, where you are from...Depart from Me you workers of iniquity.’”

●Luke 11:52 (Woe to the Pharisees and lawyers) “Woe to you for you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and those who were entering, you hindered.”

●Revelation 1:18 “I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of death.”

●Isaiah 26:20-21 “Come My people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves as it were for a little moment, until the indignation (tribulation) is past. For behold, the Lord comes out of His place (Second Coming) to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain.”

This is the great rapture door! It is a rare Old Covenant example of the door closing behind those left behind in the tribulation period.

Note that God is the God of open and closed doors and He has the keys!

Light and darkness:

The Menorah represents the supernatural light of God. It represents the seven manifestations of the Spirit of God. It represents tremendous value, and eternal beauty, and much more.

So much blindness has been created relating to God’s position on end-time Israel that today the command in Romans 12:2 to “renew your mind”, must include renewal on all things Israel! Especially for new believers and the millions that have been kept in darkness by their shepherds.

For many this glorious door is just starting to open!

Here, below, is an incredible description of some of the qualities of our Lord as He walks amongst the seven candles of the lampstand (Menorah) in Revelation chapter one.

●He is the One standing amidst the seven golden lampstands ●He has a garment down to His feet and a golden band about His chest. ●His hair was white as wool and snow. ●His eyes are like a flame of fire. ●His feet are like fine brass refined in a furnace. ●His voice is like the sound of many waters. ●He has a two-edged sword from His mouth. ●His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength. ●He is the Alpha and the Omega.

The attacking tongue and the evil eye:

Witchcraft in various forms is an end-time plague. It gives people a lying power. They get seduced by it and get cursed, manipulated and controlled. Many times this is evident in entire nations.

People, even Christians, and sometimes even deceived teachers under the power of witchcraft and legalism, attack accepted Bible truths and those who support them.

In most cases its useless dealing with such people. Avoid them like the plague.

●Jeremiah 18:18 “Let us devise plans against Jeremiah, for the law shall not perish from him, nor the counsel of wisdom, nor the word from that prophet. Come let us attack him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.”

●The word “bewitch” (Galatians 3:1) means, “to smite with the eye”, or “place the evil-eye” on someone. That evil-eye, being a curse!

Many times, the attack with the tongue and the evil-eye, go together. People who don’t like you disagreeing with them will attack you with the tongue and try to bewitch you with their evil-eye curse. They may or may not even be aware that they are spreading curses.

Those in ministry should have prayer support against such people and their poison.

Thankfully, I have loyal, wonderful prayer partners blocking attacks against me and this ministry, and there have been many!

God, god, Gog and Gaga:

We all know the prophecies of soon coming WW111 in Ezekiel 38 & 39, dubbed the war of Gog and Magog. This war sees the Russia sweep down through Turkey to attack Israel.

I have shared much about the Aryans and their connections with Hitler and Gog, in previous editions.

Here are few extra snippets that I have not shared before:

The Aryans were known for human sacrifices normally in fire, to the god Thor. Thor is a Germanic god of thunder, war and death.

Gaga was a Babylonian Akkadian hermaphrodite deity associated with the planet Pluto and the gods of the underworld.

Gog in history was linked to the Akkadian god “Gaga” from the Russian land of the Gyges. The god Gaga is also associated through the Akkadian race with Marduk, the one who orders the course of the planets, and the curse of Nibiru. (Of which I have written much about and warned of.)

The word “Aryan” means, “Of noble or perfect birth.” Some definitions include: with no Jews in the bloodline.

The Aryan race originates from the village called Arkaim in northern Russia. “Arkaim” means, “meeting of the sky and earth.” This was the home of the demon god, Gog.

Gog is a powerful satanic spirit who will arise and enter and individual (just like the antichrist will) at the right time. That will most probably be Putin.

I just thought it was interesting to see some of these ancient connections between the Aryans, Gaga, Gog, Marduk, Akkadians and the curse of Nibiru, and WW111.

The date of the war in Syria which destroys Damascus:

The well-known Isaiah 17 chapter on the destruction of Damascus by Israel, has within it a very strange, odd and mysterious date! This date identifies when the war will take place.

Isaiah 17:4 “In that day (of the war) it shall come to pass that the glory of Jacob shall wane, and the fatness of his flesh shall grow lean.” The previous verse speaks of “Ephraim losing its fortress”.

Normally, “Jacob” refers to all of Israel. But here, because it includes Ephraim it is referring to the Northern Kingdom of Israel. This is present day Samaria or the West Bank and other so-called Palestinian territories.

It is these areas and the peoples of them that are “waning” at an incredible rate, especially compared to the rest of Israel which is waxing great, and increasing on just about every front.

Many people have placed this war near the Second Coming because they believe that all Israel has to “wane” and decrease. No sir! It means that the war can happen any time now because the correct area has already “waned” or decreased.

Okay it’s not a calendar date, but it does show that all the skinny ducks are in a row.

Israel

Many Jews are being saved ahead of a great number who will be saved in the tribulation period. We are not to turn Jewish converts into little subservient Catholic, so-called Christians.

The Catholic Christ Mass is the mass of the blasphemous Eucharist, crucifying Christ over and over.

We are not to introduce saved Jews to any of the Babylonian, Roman, Catholic, and other orthodox church practises.

Babylonian Baal worship has infiltrated the church since the days of Constantine (315 AD).

The following verses are prophetic and speak to Jews being saved now, as well as those who will be saved in the tribulation. And there are dozens more like this.

Zephaniah 1:4 “...Against the inhabitants of Jerusalem, I will cut off every trace of Baal from this place, the names of the idolatrous priests, with the pagan priests.

Jeremiah 23:25-26 “I have heard what the prophets have said; who prophesy lies in My name, saying, ‘I have dreamed, I have dreamed!’ ‘How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies’? Indeed they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart, who try to make My people forget My name by their dreams which everyone tells his neighbour, as their father forgot My name for Baal.’”

Finally

In these days, there is little time left to get you act together. I expect to see an explosion of prophetic development within weeks and months. It’s time to be radical for our Lord.

Christians are born not made. Radical disciples are made not born. You must be radical in your Christian experience. You must be! You can’t think wrong and live right. And you can’t divide up your beliefs between God and the devil!

Radicals beget radicals, (and people who hate them)!

I took the fish eagle picture in the Okavango Delta and the background waterfall at Augrabies in the Kalahari Desert. I mixed in some gold leaf and combined them all.

Shalom and grow in His Grace!
