Edition 144

This ministry has a distinct kingdom vision, identifying with God’s call and plan for Israel and the church. My position is pre-trib! I was saved in 1976 while working as a war correspondent, journalist, photographer, artist and environmentalist. My calling is to share with you the great end-time dramas, to stand as a watchman and above all, to glorify my God.

►Next Edition, Lord willing: "Peace or torment"

Sovereignty / annexation of Judea and Samaria now on hold. Will proceed later in July according to Israeli government sources. Opposition to it grows.
Virus growth continues to expand at alarming rate. Lockdown and restrictions return to some areas.

These will change on Sundays or as the Lord leads.

This verse, below was given to me by our Lord in December last year to give to you as the crowning verse for 2020. This was just before the corona-virus became a world pandemic:

The heading is, “Babylon humiliated.” End-time Babylon is the modern world system:

Isaiah 47:10-11 “You have trusted in your wickedness. You have said, ‘No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and your knowledge have warped you; You have said in your heart, ‘I am, and there is no one besides me.’ Therefore evil shall come upon you and you shall not know from where it arises, and trouble shall fall upon you. You will not be able to put it off, and desolation shall come upon you suddenly.”

__________________________

Psalm 5:10 “Pronounce them guilty, O God! Let them fall by their own counsels. Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions, for they have rebelled against you.”

Psalm 83:3 “They have taken crafty council against Your people, and consulted together against Your sheltered (treasured) ones.”

Psalm 64:2 “Hide me from the secret plots of the wicked, from the rebellion of the workers of iniquity.”

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

Shabbat (Sabbath) begins on Fridays at 6pm and ends on Saturdays at 6pm. The purpose of this report is to help the church and Israel become reconciled in Messiah.

3^rd July 2020

Shabbat Shalom to all!

Watchmen what do you see?

Masses are in the salvation firing lines. This will include masses of prodigals and backslidden Christians. Entire churches will awaken to end-time Bible prophecy.

At the same time many, specifically those who are not, and come against being Spirit filled, will be taken over by strong and powerful deceptive spirits and fall away. They will join with the spirit of the antichrist and false spirits of the ecumenical, interfaith, one-world order system.

As the world shakes, more and more will look for stability – and find it in our Lord. The shaking is about to become extremely severe and masses will seek the truth, but because their hearts are not repentant and right the truth will not find them.

Many will go with what they believe is truth, but the truth-teller may be a fraud to begin with.

There are some out there presenting wonderful truth, rightly applied, but they are few and far between. When you encounter them, value and treasure them, and pray for them to continue.

As spiritual darkness descends, as prophesied in numerous passages, the entire world will be engulfed in the darkness of encroaching sin and wickedness. In very thick darkness light can’t penetrate and the light merges with darkness. (Luke 11:35)

Many times I have wandered through various wildlife areas at night with a torch. You need to watch carefully where you are going. You need to be a watchman alright!

Sometimes as you shine the torch, it picks up the shining, glowing eyes of a silent animal deep in the bush. You don't know if its a friend or foe, just from the glowing eyes.

If the torch doesn’t shine truly and brightly, how can you see and watch where you are going?

I know that many ministers and prophecy teachers read The Prophetic Scroll, and judging by what a lot of them have said, there is a growing unity in the message amongst us. That would be like many together, each with a torch, shining together in the darkness.

At the end of the day, the light of God’s truth is to guide us into the bright shining eternal glory of heavenly light, with an abundant entrance.

You don’t want to just scrape into heaven by the skin of your teeth, smelling like hell.

So, the important job of the watchman’s torch is to shed light on the right way and expose the wrong way. People’s lives are affected and changed by these things.

Not too long ago some so-called watchmen, under the curse of Nibiru taught their deceived followers that the planet Nibiru was about to strike the earth and destroy it. This was taught by the Revelation 12 –sign teachers.

Some today teach the most outrageous, dangerous, Satan-rooted heresy like: Modern day Jews can never repent because they are cursed, because a small group of them stoned Steven nearly 2000 years ago!

Disagreement amongst watchmen detracts and harms the message and Bible prophecy. It means some are not hearing from the Spirit of God, who has a unified message of pure truth. Too many watchmen are full of pride, watching through blinded eyes. They need to get out of ministry!

Agreement amongst watchmen adds weight and substance to the message. Agreement highlights and shines on the truth, confirming and establishing it.

watchmen3a

Pride is a watchman’s light-killer. It dims the light and confuses it with the darkness. Pride in a Christian minster is terribly dangerous. It deceives him with his self-importance. It blinds him to the light.

2 Corinthians 11:13-14 “Such are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Messiah. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.”

The angel of light, Satan is in the darkness of the night! “Watchmen, watchmen, what of the night? “ (Isaiah 21:11) Watchman, are you looking into the night with your light? Do you see what is of the “angel of light?” Do you watch, see and warn?

Jeremiah 6:17-18 “I set watchmen over you, saying, ‘listen to the sound of the trumpet.’ But they said. ‘We will not listen!’ Therefore hear O nations and learn O congregations, what will happen. Hear O earth! I am bringing disaster on this people, the fruit of their own schemes (thoughts), because they have paid no attention to My word and have rejected My instruction.”

In these above we see the sad reaction of the world to God's warning. They rejected it. That is exactly where we are today. But it’s quite another thing, and just as tragic when the watchman speaks a lot of hogwash and the people think he speaks the truth.

The most valuable torch-battery that a watchman can have is the cross of Calvary. It creates the power to give pure light, and strips out pride and its error.

The wonder of the cross is that it shows you that you are not valuable and precious, but that you are a dying rat with rabies, deserving of death. Then it raises you and gives you great eternal value.

Today we have a flood of ministers, ministries and so-called watchmen who are cross-less. They are of “another Jesus”. They are Spirit-less.

Their goal is your material wealth, so that they can benefit from it too. They teach self-improvement, self-esteem, self importance, all without the cross, which kills self. The speak the rat language.

They are not enemies of Christ. They are enemies of the cross of Christ! (Philippians 3:18) So they actually end up with “another Christ”!

The power of the cross and resurrection now works from inside your heart, where once the rat and blind bat lived.

Only stupid watchmen use weak, half-flat batteries in their torch. In their blindness they set themselves up as God’s editor, removing all the hard sayings and severity from their doctrine, producing spineless, worldly, weak counterfeit Christians.

It’s always the same people that get caught in big errors. They seem to attract all the rubbish. There’s a reason for that. It is because of their hidden pride, and because they have let in a spirit of error and have not cast it out or repented. It comes back seven times worse.(Matthew 12:45)

You need to be very careful and diligent with your faith. Examine it and guard it, and always move forward in total surrender to all truth, and actively avoid the error out there.

We see the two white horse riders contrasted in the Bible. Revelation 6:2 sees the rider on a white horse, given a crown (corona) and with a bow but no arrow, symbolising deception. Then we see God’s white horse rider at the end of the Revelation.

Revelation 19:11-14 “I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war...and the armies in heaven clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.”

Notice the accompanying riders! The antichrist rider flies onto the stage with three other riders of the apocalypse - riders of deception, wielding death, destruction, and chaos.

Now notice our Lord on a white horse flying out of heaven with great armies of saints in fine linen, on white horses. The fine linen is the “righteousness of the saints”. (Revelation 19:8) Guess who these are? That’s us.

But note that we all return to make righteous war with our Lord. Since when do you go to war dressed in fine white linen? It is the final victory – the victory of fine righteousness over dirty wickedness! – Glory, I say!

Note well that at the marriage supper it is the church who are in fine while linen. Note well that as soon as dinner is over the white horse rider and the entire church still in white linen ride magnificently out of heaven at the Second Coming.

What amazing proof of a pre-tribulation rapture!!

✡† Shalom...Joel.

Review of the Prophetic Scroll and what’s ahead.

This website has become very popular and grown from a few hundred members and regulars to seven million in a short time. It has been a labour of love and a privilege to be at your service.

We are now in almost every nation in over fifty languages. The website is growing fastest in the eastern nations of Asia. The US, Canada, Australia, and South Africa are high up on the list, with Europe being the lowest.

The website now has audio updates included for your benefit. They will be updated from time to time.

The website has led to many incredible testimonies as well as invitations. I do a regular one hour (sometimes two hour) slot on Radio Preacher Man in the US, which is internet radio so it’s worldwide. This is part of the Christian Broadcasting Network.

When I refer to “we” that’s the website and me! I do this alone and will not bring it under the influence of any particular church and its doctrine. I receive no salary or compensation. In fact I often sit into the early hours working on this publication after a day involved in other things needed to bring in some money.

I must just add that I would really like to give myself fulltime to this endeavour, but financial support / donations are needed to keep the wheels turning!

I have had wonderful help and encouragement from a number of people. Joanne Smith of Rabbi Jonathan Chan’s Messianic Fellowship (Author of world best seller, The Harbinger) came along out of the blue, and has set up a prayer ministry for me and the Prophetic Scroll, for which I am very thankful. Other ministries have also undertaken to pray for me regularly at their own initiative. I have a close association with a number of Messianic ministries.

Some of the earlier editions had a number of style and grammar errors, which drove one of the regular readers up the wall, so he came along and offered his editing services free. Thank you Stan Fourie, you’ve been a great help.

In the near future I will be setting up a regular audio conference with a number of prophecy teachers worldwide.

I will be bringing you news soon of an affiliation with a number of ministries in Israel. I can’t share any more on that yet.

The big bottom line is that The Prophetic Scroll is a calling of God. It is His work. As such it will always remain directly submitted to Him and His word. His ancient scriptures will remain central, unchanged and interpreted literally unless the context is obviously allegorical. I will endeavour to bring you the wisdom and full spectrum of the scriptures as God leads. There is great safety and security in truth and an open heart. My mission and purpose will always be to help you along this way.

biblespectrum

The vision:

This ministry was birthed in my heart by God back in 1980, and took various forms. In 2009 it took on its present form.

The central vision and purpose is to bring to you the prophetic word as revealed in the scriptures. It is to unfold this, the greatest drama of all time as we progress to the climax of the ages. The purpose is to outline truth, warn against error and reveal what has been removed or added to the scriptures in modern times.

This ministry will always stand with and for truth affirming God’s ways and will always come against error and deception. We will move forward on the highway of holiness. Many will be eternally shocked when they realise that they have not been running the race of maturity, but running the race to keep up with the Joneses! Many will expect to go to the marriage feast of the Lord, but will end up at the feast of whores and vultures.

The purpose is to continuously mix ministry for your head and your heart. It is also to challenge and warn against some of the huge and fast growing deceptions out there.

The purpose is not to take the place of church, but to fill the huge gaps in modern churchianity! Today very few churches have any interest whatsoever in prophecy, end-times and related issues. They are the blind leading the blind.

Above all, the purpose is to help you to be prepared to stand before our great God and Saviour in confidence.

This ministry is a call to anyone open to the truth and keen to move forward with our Lord. It is call to all to get ready. It is a call to the lost sheep of Israel, as well as all the unsaved. It is a call to the backslider to come back fast. And it is a call to much of the church to break free from enslavements to Babylon.

This ministry is a call to the believing children of Abraham, Jews, Gentiles and Arabs to be reconciled as one in Messiah. This is the true Messianic vision.

This ministry is a warning to churches propagating replacement theology. It is a warning to others like the emergent church movement and it is a warning to some within Messianic Judaism who are becoming exclusive and legalistic, although many are doing just fine. This ministry will always warn you against one of the most dangerous and deceptive forces today, the Multi- Faith movement.

By the way, the Messianic movement includes Jew and Gentile. Messianic Judaism is the group becoming too exclusive.

The Prophetic Scroll will continue to be filled with quality imagery. Many of the pictures are my own. I would also like to embark on video creation and production, but that will depend on the appropriate money coming in.

The “News and Commentary” section at the top of each edition is not designed to bring you current news in a more general way. I select recent news items from many sources that have a particular relevance to Bible prophecy or spiritual things on the go now.

The Prophetic Scroll; persecution and testimonies!

This website continues to come under attack from certain types. Most people have been very positive and thankful, but some have chosen to use all sorts of means to cause trouble. At the moment the website is being attacked every day by hackers using auto responders.

I have had some people driven by incredible hatred try to bring me down with the most outrageous personal email attacks.

I have had the miserable duty of “handing some over to Satan for destruction” as required by the scriptures. These have been people with a relentless attack. They’ve disappeared afterwards.

Many of the attacks have come from people of other churches, simply because I challenge them.

Some churches really don’t like anyone rocking their comfortable sleepy cradles. As you would be aware, I am no fan of institutionalised, organised denominationalism.

Sometimes the attacks are discouraging, but I soon realise that that is the purpose of the enemy and I then rise up in anger. That’s normally when I have to apologise afterwards!

Testimonies:

On the other hand I have had so many wonderful testimonies. Many have really been over the top and others have been calm collected thank-yous. A number of churches have let me know that they have changed course completely as a result of the Prophetic Scroll.

I’ve had some outrageous requests. The worst has to be the email from some individual who presumed that I lived in his city. He said we had to meet urgently because the Lord had told him that he was one of the two witnesses and I was the other! He was either in fellowship with the wrong Lord or had eaten too much pizza.

I’ve been so privileged to meet (albeit online) so many incredible and wonderful people and really been thrilled that there are so many who have such a hunger for our Lord and His truth in these days.

Unfortunately there are some who are so arrogant, proud and obnoxious they’re beyond help.

I’ve often wondered what it is that causes some people to receive the truth and others to reject it. It is a heart attitude. When confronted with truth some will not lay aside their pre-formed self-orientated opinions and agendas. These will never find the truth.

On a personal level:

My background in the media has given me a desire to know the news and what’s behind it. The only difference now is that I really have a desire to share it all, knowing that God here, I have little interest in worldly and self orientated things. My total purpose and desire is to know my God, be known by Him and make Him known.

Early in my Christian life, I developed a desperation to know our Lord more. I resigned from the newspaper and began reading my Bible through cover to cover, which I’ve done three times. I cut my spiritual teeth on the old school hell and brimstone, fiery preachers, for which I’m eternally grateful and still read their material often. I went to Bible schools and set myself on this new spiritual journey.

Long ago I used to collect antiques. I got rid of most of them in the early 80s but I kept a few items. Recently a friend sitting in my lounge remarked that these items reflected much of my calling and spiritual life. I had not realised that.

I kept an antique hand operated printing press, a candle powered magic lantern (forerunner to the projector). I kept two trumpets from the 1800s. I kept a gold- plated compass and a gold and silver chemical balance or set of scales.

The printing press and the magic lantern relate to publishing and photography. The trumpets relate to God’s judgement and His call to gather and get ready. The compass relates to direction finding and the scale relates to God’s justice.

Here they are:

I’m not fully Jewish, but have Jewish blood in me. I grew up in a Jewish neighbourhood. From my very early days I had a strong Jewish influence in me through my mother who taught all her life in a Hebrew junior school. We grew up celebrating the feasts. As kids we went to Sunday school as well. So thanks to my mom, I had an exposure to both Christianity and Jewish life in my younger days. I was a typical teenage rebel, but in 1976 had a dramatic conversion into our Lord’s family and kingdom.

I’ve never backslidden, sometimes foreword slidden too slowly, but since salvation, always had a passion for the truth.

Over the years this has become one of my favourite verses:

●2 Corinthians 5:15 “He died for all that those who live should no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again.

If you set your heart, mind and soul to live firstly for our Lord all your priorities will fall into place. Living for God gives you purpose, vision and victory and allows you to then live for others as He directs.

In fact the biggest problem with the world today is the antithesis of this verse. Most people live for themselves all the time.

In my much younger wilder days, I broke my neck and was badly injured in a skydiving accident as well as others incidents in my days as a war correspondent. Recently, things have deteriorated and I’m partially crippled now, battling to walk and constantly in pain. I need to have two new knee joints, but I’m kind of attached to my present ones! I’ve been trying to get a “disabled parking” licence. Man, that’s not easy!

Anyway, I’m privileged to still be mobile and in my Lord’s service.

The way ahead:

My friends, we are right at the dawn of some of the most exciting, wonderful and terrible times the world has ever seen or ever will. The future will be a mine field of false doctrines, attacks and deceptions. At the same time it will be a time of safety, growing glory and stability in Messiah, for those who are His and have set their minds hearts, souls and everything else on Him.

The Prophetic Scroll will be there to help you through whatever lies ahead. I will be identifying great troubles even before they hit and present to you the way of escape and victory.

Our Lord has a plan for you, especially tailor made just for you. I will help you to find it and walk in it. I will be encouraging you to share whatever God shows you to share with others. Together we will go into this dark night, with God’s light in our hearts. We will walk forward in confidence and security even in the face of death.

I will be sharing with you a lifetime of amazing revelations that our Lord has given me over the many years. These still come along regularly. As we draw near to our Lord He draws near to us with inexhaustible revelation and wisdom.

I have so much more and so many amazing “revelations” to share with you that I have never touched on before.

I will be sharing with you dramatic exciting visions of the glory-filled future for us.

Because we are now in a fast changing and developing spiritual environment, both good and bad, The Prophetic Scroll will adapt, change and move on with God as He leads. We will never get stuck in a rut.

Even now I sense prophetically, that we are approaching the outpouring of the Spirit of God like never before and the spirit of evil at the same time. Untold masses will be saved and untold masses will die. Peace or torment will be the order of the times that lie ahead.

God has a call and plan for your life. That may sound like a cliché, but it is all part of His purpose. In fact it is the very reason you were born. You may not see it all now but you will. As we head into ever intensifying “birth pangs” people will come looking for you. They will give up on the world and want the Kingdom of God. Multitudes will be in that valley of decision. This is where you come in!

Some upcoming editions will be:

►Timing: What we can and can’t know.

►Israel, you are not alone.

►The Fruits of truth.

►Why so many will go to hell.

►Revisiting the rapture (this will be a shocker.)

►How to use end-times in witnessing.

►Amazing revelations in numbers and colours. (This will rattle many cages!)

►I will do new appropriate editions as the world situation changes.

Please look into this website often for new editions news and updates.

Finally:

Today very few people are even slightly aware or interested in these end-time events. They’ve been very successfully fashioned after this world by its god, Satan. Many are filled with friendly demons and have no idea. If God opened the veil and they could see; they would be dumb struck with horror.

On the other hand there are many who light up with real genuine interest when presented with these things. These ones at least have an open heart and are prepared to question. They are the ones who will go forward to salvation.

And by the way, the masses of Jews who will look upon our Messiah and see their Messiah soon, will be saved to the Jewish Messiah, the King of the universe. They will not become nice little blind products of the Babylonian Christ as presented in most luke-warm pagan-possessed churches, with their Satan-filled traditions of the occult like Christmas and Easter!

It is our Lord who’ll open their eyes and lift the veil. He will open their eyes to Himself and a Messianic, Hebraic belief and practice. The best many Christians can do is stand with and for God’s work in this regard, but back out personally and shut their mouths. Don’t try to reintroduce Jews to Babylon. They’ve been there before!

There is one huge big common detonator running through all church history since the advent of Constantine and that is that all the church fathers including those of the reformation were anti-Semites.

No sir, the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua is King of the Jews, in holiness and all glory! He is the one and only great God.

O, my friends, it is so well worth it to follow our Lord. Please never give up nor turn away from Him even if there are things difficult to understand (and there will be more of those coming along.)

Stand for truth, stand for our Messiah, stand for Israel and the Jewish people in these days. Stand against the god of this world and all half-heartedness. Be radical, be different, be a child of glory!

I took this picture of my friend, game lodge owner Willie Joubert, easing out with one of his friends out in the African bush.

Job 39:8 “The range of the mountains is His pasture and He searches after every green thing.”
