Edition 400

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

The number of Chrisitan ministers turning to replacement theology is growing in line with the number of the unsaved growing in anti-Semitism - worldwide.

There is huge symbolism in the burning of the Notre-Dame in Paris, with the Al Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount, Jerusalem burning at exactly the same time. It’s a sign of dying Christianity in Europe, but there is more. Notre-Dame was a refuse and centre of the planning and mass murder of millions of Jews in the inquisitions. Even today it is a centre of terrible anti-Semitic art. Europe, - you are on fire – the wrong sort!

Notre Dame is a symbol of pride and pomp, with a historic anti-Israel "flavour" all around it!

You don’t curse Israel and get away with it forever! It is time for “judgment to begin in the house of God.” (1 Peter4:17)

Shabbat (Sabbath) begins on Fridays at 6pm and ends on Saturdays at 6pm. The purpose is to help the church and Israel become reconciled in Messiah and to identify the rift, and the needed restoration. There is much in the church that needs to change before it can be fully reconciled with the Jew. Likewise, changes in Jewish thinking are also needed.

Shabbat Shalom to all and happy Passover!

The hugely important difference between Passover and Easter:

This discourse offers great prophetic insight. It is vital that you see and understand this, because the pressures to conform to error are growing fast. The prophetic message is devastating!

Christian ministers, ignorant of the unadulterated scriptures have the potential to become a Judas.

Woe to those who put stumbling blocks in front of God’s people! We are to worship ourLord in spirit and truth!

(Isaiah 57:14, Leviticus 19:14)

Passover:

The Bible proclaims the seven feasts of the Lord to be “holy convocations.” They are not to be changed or have the order changed, because they represent God’s course of history.

Passover, the first of the seven, found its prophetic fulfilment in the release of the Jews from Egypt, and their journey to the Promised Land. Passover also speaks of the destruction of the gods of Egypt (a type of the world and its god –Satan) Exodus 12:12-13.

Passover also speaks remarkably of the cross of Calvary and the shed blood of our Lord, in the sprinkling of the blood of the lambs, with hyssop on the doorposts, bringing salvation to those on the inside.

Hyssop: A leafy shrub used in ancient Hebrew purification rites.

Psalm 51:7 “Purge me with hyssop and I will be clean. Wash me and I shall be whiter than snow.”

Revelation 7:14 “These are the ones washed white in the blood of the Lamb.”

But, and most importantly, the journey to the Promised Land is prophetic of Israel’s soon coming spiritual journey to the promised land of salvation.

So let’s be very clear, that Passover speaks of: ●Israel’s release from captivity, ●the destruction of the captors, ●and their pagan gods, ●the journey to the Promised Land and, ●the cross of Calvary, which took place over ●three days and nights. ●It speaks of Israel’s return to the land, and the coming salvation of the Jews.

Easter:

Everything about Easter is of Babylonian, pagan, occult origin, created and inserted into church practice by the Jew-hating Catholics, as a replacement for Passover. (Look it up.)

Some history:

Ishtar was the day of celebration of the resurrection of the evil god Tammuz, who was believed to have been immaculately conceived by sex between the sun and moon gods. – The moon goddess, had eggs of fertility named after her, called Ishtar eggs. A round bun with “T” on it was eaten as worship to Tammuz. The pagan worship leaders were to make the sign of the “T” over their hearts in honour of Tammuz. Rabbits, which were sex-symbols as well, were introduced.

The Bible commands the people of God to have nothing to do with this unholy lot.

Easter speaks of the sex symbols of Babylon – rabbits and eggs, which are seen in many ancient murals, sculptures, and wall-reliefs, at the feet of a nude sex goddess - queen Ishstar, who was associated with numerous other pagan gods. The word, “Easter” is a transliteration of “Ishtar.”

Today, supposedly, Easter has become a celebration of the events of the cross of Calvary, but not so fast!

Easter adherents claim the events of the cross fell over two days and nights, making a mockery of the truth of the Bible’s three days and nights. (Look it up) Easter is the counterfeit!

Here is the great big problem, and the identification of the presence of Satan in everything to do with Easter:

►According to Catholic tradition and Easter supporters, Easter does not speak of anything to do with Israel’s release from Egypt (the world), the destruction of the pagan gods, and the journey to the Promised Land. This then nullifies the symbolic message of coming salvation through the cross of the Jews.

Easter has surgically removed the powerful history of the Jews and their glorious future.

Do you see the problem? Do you see how clearly we have the modern history of replacement theology and anti-Semitism spelt out in these great omissions?

While I’m in the process of making a lot of people mad, let me take it further:

Have you noticed that Easter celebrators in the church, never have any Hebraic items in their churches? Have you ever noticed that almost without exception, those into replacement theology are Easter celebrators?

You see, there are spirits at work here and they are stirring, and rising now, because they know that just like at Egypt their days are numbered. These spirits are trying to get rid of God’s call on Israel.

So, what about the churches and ministries who say they support Israel, but also play with pagans in their pews, spewing the names of Baal and associates at Easter?

Last year, I heard a terrible statement from one teacher, whom I will keep my distance from, who said: “You must mix paganism with the church, because you can then reach more people”!

I say this almost every year, but here it comes again. The Bible commands a clear, distinct cut and break from all forms of paganism and the occult, including the names!

Far too many ministers teach the hogwash that they’re just using the names of the sex goddess, and others. They are either trapped by the hierarchy of their denomination rulers, too chicken to rock the boat, or bound by the traditions of their pew-warmers. Or of course they are totally blind.

So, Mr. Minister, you say, you only use the names of the pagan gods and teach others to do the same and spread it all far and wide!

scroll scroll3

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.

Exodus 23:13 “Be circumspect and make no mention of the name of other gods, nor let it be heard from your mouth.”

Jeremiah 10:2 “Do not learn the way of the pagans.” (This goes on to condemn the cutting down of the fir tree, attaching it to the floor, and decorating it with gold and silver balls in honour of the sun and moon gods!)

Deuteronomy 12:30-31 “Take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed before you, and that you do not enquire after their gods, saying ‘How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise.’ You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way...”

Do you see the prophetic element in the great difference between Passover and Easter? Never the twain shall meet!

Easter is full of intentional omissions and changes, incorrect days and is filled with the occult. Easter denigrates Israel.

Passover is a God-ordained, biblical convocation. Easter is pagan, occult, and of human tradition. The symbols and names of both are as far apart as heaven and hell.

There is a further dangerous thing here. It is about the evil, Babylonian, Egyptian influence on the Jews from the church, ahead of their great time of visitation.

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 fathers forgot My name for Baal.’”

(Baal was a Babylonian pagan god of sex and fertility, who also went by the name: “The Shamen Lord of the Heavens”! The name, “Baal” means “lord or owner of the people.”)

The ancient gods, Baal, Ishtar, Nimrod, Tammuz, Semiramis and others are all connected, and are amongst the end-time gods arising in the world right now!

Deuteronomy 23:14 “The Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp to deliver you and give your enemies over to you; therefore your camp shall be holy, that He may see no unclean thing among you, and turn away from you.”

I strongly encourage you to read these verses here again – prayerfully and to obey them.

Here is the commitment of The Prophetic Scroll (TPS)

Joshua 24:15 “If it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served or the gods of the Amorites. But as for me and my house (TPS), we will serve the Lord.”

✡† Shalom...Joel.

Edition 400: January 16^th 2018

Four Hundred and more:

fourhundred

Introduction:

This is Edition 400.

Hebrew is an alpha-numeric language. Each letter has a numeric value to it as well. You can simply add up the numeric value of a word. Bear in mind, that numbers in scripture have meanings as well. Hebrew letters are in picture form which have meaning too.

Don’t go overboard with these things!

This is edition 400. It is also a few weeks into the New-Year 2018, and a few months into the Hebrew year 5778. Is there any significance at all to this? I think so, although I’m most certainly not making a “doctrine” out of this. It’s simply interesting. Time will of course tell, as we move on.

The amazing number 400:

The number “400” is assigned to the Hebrew letter ‘Tav’ - ת. It is the 22^nd and final letter of the Hebrew alphabet and it means “Spiritual enlightenment or insight.” Some other meanings of ‘Tav’ derived from the verses in which it is used, as well as the pictogram are: Division, death and door.

The left leg of the ‘Tav’ looks like a Shofar, giving it the meaning: “Alarming trumpet blast.”

The ‘Tav’ is made up of two other letters: ‘Daleth’ and ‘Nun’ meaning “judgement”.

The letter ‘Tav’ (400) also means: A sign, the cross, and eternity. In the days of Ezekiel, the pictogram of the Tav was a cross as shown in the diagram below. You can see that the modern “Tav” also looks like a doorway.

tav-hebrew

The final letter of the Greek alphabet is “Omega” with numeric value of 800 or 400x2. Tradition implies that the first 400 represents God’s initial work with man, and the second 400 represents God’s final work with man. Therefore we have 400x2.

Interestingly, Strong’s G400 is the word: “Anaphoneo” Meaning to ‘cry out with a loud voice of alarm!’ (Luke 1:42)

400 can also be represented as 40x10. 40 is the number of trial and testing, while 10 is the number of divine order, or complete manifestation.

400 can also be represented as 5x8x10. 5 is the number of grace. 8 is the number of resurrection and 10 divine manifestation.

400 is also 8x50. 8 is the number of resurrection and 50 the number of jubilee or release to freedom. This symbolises a perfect divine period.

What incredible significance all of this has, especially for the Jewish people!

The first occurrence in the Bible of the number 400 relates to the misery of the 400 hundred years of bondage for the children of Israel in Egypt, and their release from it. (Genesis 15:13) The Rabbis see 400 in relation to their deliverance by Messiah.

400 is also associated with the rebuilding of temple. There were 400 pomegranates on the two pillars of the Temple. (2 Chronicles 4:13)

Let’s put it all together:

So then, ‘Tav’ represents: Death, division, lamenting, crying out, alarm, judgement, divine order, jubilee, spiritual enlightenment, a sign, the cross, the temple, eternity.

Now the application:

Note that this is simply and application of these things, nothing more.

When applying these things to the Jews and Bible prophecy we need to consider that the Jews will go through much suffering soon and have a ‘death’ and a ‘judgement’ leaving them ‘crying out’ and ‘lamenting’. A great ‘sign’ will appear for them. (Nothing to do with Revelation 12!) They will suddenly receive ‘spiritual enlightenment’ and see the cross of Messiah! This will have eternal consequences for them.

This is all going to happen anyway because it is part of Bible prophecy. In fact some of it is already starting to “warm up.”

Does this mean that things are all going to begin now? I would not be so presumptuous as to maintain that because this is Edition 400, these things are going to start happening now.

On the other hand, as we look into so many other factors and events, it does look very much like we are on the verge of it all starting up now. I would not be surprised! For me personally there is a message here, but as said earlier, don’t go overboard with these things, just keep them in mind.

Is this the year of the great awakening, the veil lifting and the blindness clearing? If it is, prepare for a most dramatic time ahead!

If we are on the eve of Messiah’s revelation to His people the Jews, these are just some of the things which, are prophetically related, and will also take place around the same time:

Soon to come:

●2018 will be the year of intensive spiritual darkness for the world and much of the church, as the light begins to shine into Jewish hearts.

●Within a section of the church there will be a new form of deep supernatural darkness with accompanying lying signs and wonders that will deceive masses.

●This will also be the time of great revival, especially in the east. The church, open to the Spirit of God, and God’s work in Israel, will grow in leaps and bounds in the face of growing persecution.

●There will be a dual outpouring of the Spirit of God and the spirit of evil. Mixture of true and false doctrine will abound, deceiving many.

●New sets and cults will form quickly and lead many to destruction.

●This will be a time when restraint is broken down more and more, and sin and evil gets worse.

●Unrestrained “self” will be the order of the day. “Me now” will be the call of the world! “Instant gratification” will be the burning desire of the masses. It will all be for the common good of the state and furtherance of the universal man. – All doomed.

●The mass-media will become more and more deadly like poisonous vipers, blind and deaf!

●We will see new wars break out and old ones intensify.

Light and dark and the battle for Israel in these days:

Isaiah 60:2-3 “Behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and deep darkness the people (nations), 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 rising.”

2 Peter 1:19 “We have the prophetic word made more sure (than seeing with our eyes and hearing with our ears – previous verses), which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts.”

In these two powerful verses above we have great insight! Bible prophecy is essential and shines as a light in the intensifying darkness. This severe spiritual darkness will cover the whole earth and all nations as it is beginning to do right now. Israel will be saved in this time and become the world’s most powerful evangelists in the tribulation.

So here we have “darkness, deep darkness”, and the light of Bible prophecy shining in the dark, and “dawning” in the hearts of those who believe in it, bringing them into glorious light.

Beloved brethren, I know Bible prophecy has been, and still is being dealt severe blows of credibility by those who have no place being in ministry. But do not discredit it, and do not cast it or its importance down.

Revelation, spiritual insight and understanding is conditional upon obedience to God’s Spirit and a walk of repentance.

It’s important to understand that God does not run around blinding people spiritually for fun! It’s always as a result of man’s pride, rebellion and disobedience in the first place. It happens to the church just as it has done to Israel.

The verse below shows how it happened to Israel:

Isaiah 29:9-11 “Pause and wonder! Blind yourselves and be blind! They are drunk, but not with wine; they stagger, but not with intoxicating drink. For the Lord has poured out on you the Spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, namely the prophets; and has covered your heads, namely the seers. The whole vision has become to you like the words of a scroll that is sealed...”

The Jews here had in fact blinded themselves by rejecting the Messiah who was clearly revealed to them in the Bible, by their prophets. As a result, God blinded them further and “sealed” the vision of Himself to them! What a great tragedy!

It was their actions in the first place that led to them being blinded.

But, all of that has a time-stamp on it! It’s about to all change dramatically! The repentance of the Jews will lead them into God’s light!

Isaiah 42:16 “I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known, I will make darkness light before them and crooked places straight.”

A great sign:

Jeremiah 32:21 “You have brought Your people Israel out of the land of Egypt with signs and wonders, with a strong hand and outstretched arm and with great terror.” This was after 400-years of Egyptian enslavement. (Genesis 15:13)

The verse below is part of the discourse of God relating to the salvation of the Jews. If you think Isaiah 66 is familiar, you are right!

Isaiah 66, wrongly used, is part of the great deception presented by the Revelation 12-sign teachers, “proving” that the church gets born-again in a day at the rapture and is not actually born-again now.” They have taken that out of the context of the dispensation for Israel and applied it to the church. They did this to support an entire collection of verses all wrongly interpreted and applied – every one, to produce a great deception.

Whenever you find gross misrepresentation and error by a teacher, who later refuses to repent and correct his great deceptions – run away from them fast, because much more will be coming – mark those words!

Isaiah 66 is speaking to and of the Jews and their coming salvation. It has nothing to do with the dispensation of the church!

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

Could this be the sign?

Romans 10:19 “I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation. I will anger you by a foolish nation.”

This verse says that something will happen that will provoke the Jews to “jealousy” and “anger” at the same time. Most analysts agree that this “nation” in the verse above, is in fact the mostly Gentile church.

Could this sign for the Jews be the rapture of the church? It would most certainly make them jealous and angry as they, the chosen people are left behind!

I won’t say more at this stage, because I have spoken on this numerous times, but man-o-man it is exciting stuff – don’t you think?

Time is running out! So much has to happen in a short space of time and then eternity! What joy!

Rewards:

old-keys

God has a secret key for each of us which opens a special room of treasures for us. The world offers many keys to successes – all a waste of time, if not inspired by Him. It’s the ancient, golden key of God that we need to find to unlock great eternal wealth. All the other keys open to empty rooms!

We should not be motivation by seeking to be better than someone else from a pride point of view. We are not to exalt ourselves and put others down. But, nevertheless, there are many important issues and truths in rewards.

Rewards for excellence are part of the package deal! Working for reward alone is putting the cart before the horse. But when the horse is before the cart, the horse does get its reward.

It is perfectly legitimate to know what rewards are coming and why. There are literally hundreds of verses, parables and stories describing in detail much about rewards.

Our motivation is to serve our Lord as best we can. That will be rewarded. You can’t and must not remove that from the Bible.

Colossians 3:23-24 “Whatever you do; do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance, for your service to the Lord Yeshua.”

Isaiah 62:11 “Proclaim to the end of the world: Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘surely your salvation is coming; Behold, His reward is with Him, and His work before Him.’”

Matthew 16:27 “The Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father, with His angels and then He will reward each one according to His works.”

There is nothing at all wrong with running a race to win and get a reward. We are in this race really to exalt and glorify our Lord, but He has promised to reward those that do His will, excellently.

We will only be rewarded for the works we did in response to His prompting, leading and calling. So that shortens the list!

An illiterate toilet janitor called by God to clean toilets, and who does it excellently to the glory of God, will receive a greater reward than the CEO of that company who is called to be a CEO, but does it half heartedly.

Bear in mind that many will suffer loss of reward as they get to heaven and some will scrape in with no reward at all. Consider that rewards create an eternal, recognisable state for that person.

What will we be rewarded for and what not:

The Bible mentions five types of crowns given to believers for different things. They are: ●The crown of life (James1:12), ●The incorruptible crown (1 Corinthians 9:25-27, ●The crown of righteousness (2 Timothy 4:8), ●The crown of glory (1 Peter 5:2-4), ●The crown of exultation and rejoicing (1 Thessalonians 2:19)

There are numerous other rewards for overcoming, service and even martyrdom. (Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 26. Revelation 3:21. Revelation 21:7, Revelation 22:12 and many more)

Here are a few more general “reward” verses: (Hover your mouse over them.)

Romans 2:6, Galatians 6:9, Matthew 25:21, 1 Corinthians 2:9, Hebrews 11:6.

We will not be rewarded for a glass of cold water given to someone who is thirsty. (Mark9:31)

We will be rewarded for a glass of cold water given to someone, in His name.

We will be rewarded for our “confidence / faith” in Messiah. (Hebrews 10:35)

We will be known in all the universe and in all eternity by our reward status. It is God’s final assessment of us –forever. We can’t go back and do it again!

Number your days:

Psalm 90:10-12 “The days of our lives are seventy years...So teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”

This is most important and often underestimated. “Numbering our days” does not necessarily mean just counting them although that may be involved. It really means we are to see and take note of the extreme value in the days our Lord has blessed us with.

Each day of our lives has momentous, vast potential.

Our Lord has given us only so many days. We can make those days count for eternal reward or count for nothing!

Consider the following table:

●70-years as a believer = 25,550 days

●50-years as a believer = 18,250 days

●20-years as a believer = 3,150 days

●1-year as a believer = 365 days.

●6-mths as a believer = 182 days.

If the rapture were to take place on Rosh Hashanah (September 10^th) this year, that’s 238 days from now for all true believers!

When you think of that, and especially when you compare these numbers to eternity, it’s a very, very short time we have on earth in the service of our Lord. It is this short time that determines our eternal state and our eternal “brightness!”

Do you see the gravity of this? Do you see the importance of not wasting your time with stupid, dumb things and just living for self?

Do you want to scrape into heaven by the skin of your teeth, and have no eternal rewards waiting for you? That’s what you call life’s biggest OOPS!

What can I do?

Many people really want to serve our Lord and get moving in the things of God. So many simply don’t know what to do! You must seek the voice of the Lord for you personally. But here are some more general things you must do:

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.”

Let this be your prayer: “Lord, I want to live for You. I want to rise to newness of life even now. Show me what I can and must do for You. Show me your calling”.

“Show me Your heart and passion.”

“Show me how to truly exalt You in my life and glorify You. Lay on my heart Your will for me. Lead me and guide me.”

“Show me how to make my life count for You, so that I may finish my race with joy in you and testify to that.”

“Give me strength to take up my cross, to deny self and to live and walk in holiness.”

Finally

Is Edition 400 a marker? Will we now see things really speed up? As always, I will be waiting and watching and pressing forward into the presence of my Lord God and Saviour more and more, for Him, for me and for you.

This is not the time to gamble with eternity! This is the time to make dramatic changes, for the better in your life for our great God. Clean your life up through repentance, seek God’s will and move forward with Him.
