1 Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (G # 2837) (Dead), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose (G #450) (Resurrected) again, even so them also which sleep (G # 2838) (Rest in Jesus) (Mansion) in Jesus will God bring with him. 15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent (precede) them which are asleep. 16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise (G # 450) first: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. If you will notice the word resurrection is not used in these verses above Context is everything when understanding the resurrection. There are 3 basic meanings to the word itself. 1 -To raise from the dead, 2-to raise to a higher level of thinking- and 3-moral recovery of a spiritual truth. There are only 3. The first explanation; Lazarus would be a good example, he was resurrected from being dead after being dead for 4 days to the point of stinking. This is a specific reference to his carnal body being resurrected back to life. The other side of the first explanation; Jesus was resurrected or raised (rose again) but not His carnal body. He was resurrected to His spiritual body that looks exactly like His old flesh body but they are not one in the same. Keep in mind Jesus is God and he was taken flesh and all to heaven. He was also transfigured along with Moses and Elijah on the mount of transfiguration. Ecclesiastes 12:6 and 7 tell us that regular people like you and me are separated at death (Harpadzo). When you die you are resurrected at that moment to your spiritual body, not at some later point of time. It happens in the moment of a twinkling of the eye as 1 Corinthians 15:52 explains. The corruptible body goes back to the dirt and will never be needed again, you are done with it. Second explanation; 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. In a sense the new man after being saved has been resurrected or raised to a higher level of existence or thinking. The spiritual man has been awakened. Third explanation; When you backslide and then turn back to God you will have a moral recovery of your faith and the truth. You are resurrected through forgiveness back to good standing with God. I listened to some knucklehead the other day who has no business teaching a goat roping much less Gods word. He said at the rapture the spirit body and the old flesh body will join back together when the body comes out of the ground like a zombie and joins the spirit body in the air. This is so ridiculous I had to laugh. Nowhere in God’s word is this mentioned except when Christ rose again and people at that time came out of their graves as a onetime event to proclaim the miracle of Jesus death burial and resurrection. (Matthew 27:53) The concept of rejoining the corruptible and incorruptible bodies back together at the second coming contradicts 1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. Resurrected (You must die at the 7th trump and be changed at this time) 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 2 Corinthians 5:6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: 7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:) 8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. Hebrews 9:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: The above verses are a clear contradiction of rejoining the spirit and flesh at the second coming There are 4 words you must understand in 1 Thessalonians 4 and they are sleep, asleep, rise and rose. What you must understand is where the dead are raising from; a hole in the ground? or are they raising up from paradise where all spirit bodies reside? The way in which the words are used here indicates they are raised from Paradise to the Millennium, from one plain of existence to another. Paradise is a place of holding until the Millennium begins for both the quick and the dead. One of the Greek words used to describe it is Hupnos, it seems to be saying it is a place of holding or suspension in time. The quick and the dead are described in the Greek as: nekros, hoi nekroi, ek nekron and 'ek ton nekron. Rise and Rose are the same Greek word G # 450 anistémi: to raise up, to rise Original Word: ἀνίστημι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: anistémi Phonetic Spelling: (an-is'-tay-mee) Definition: to raise up, to rise Usage: I raise up, set up; I rise from among (the) dead; I arise, appear. arise, jump up, stand up.

To sum up the 8 visions of Zachariah There is a reoccurring theme throughout Gods Word. The children of God turn their back on Him and He demands they repent and get back on track. After many warnings he will then chastise, punish and even pour out His wrath on His children. The penalties can be mild to very harsh but He always gives us a warning through His prophets, who can often be the most hated people in the world. The visions of Zachariah are a glimpse into the mind of YHVH and how He works in the world. The same things reoccur time and again. 1st Vision; is a survey of the condition of the world as a whole just as God did Sodom and Gomorrah before he destroyed it. He sent 2 angels to the town just as He sent the horses or angels to the earth in Zechariah’s time. This is the way God operates. The report was that Gods people had become indifferent to Him and Christianity was losing ground in the world. 2nd Vision; is a description of the powers that control the earthly systems of this world and they have been used to persecute Gods children and scatter the Children of Israel. 3rd Vision; is a description of Gods Elect who see the works of satan and are actively trying to destroy him and his kingdom. 4th Vision; is a description of the size of the Millennial Temple which cannot be numbered with souls yet until the end of this age. It also describes the deliverance of Gods people out of Babylon who call on Him. 5th Vision; Is a description of Jesus Christ 6th Vision; is a description of the 2 Witnesses 7th Vision; is a description of the 7 seals an outline of the last days. It describes the destruction of the beast system and Mystery Babylon 8th Vision is a description of the 4 Horses and the 2 Superpowers of the end times In the end we see a destruction of the beast system that is in control of the 4 hidden powers of Education Religion Finance and Politics. The whole mess is put into a basket and dropped into oblivion forever. The system we now see in the world today has become so corrupt it is collapsing on itself and God will have them all in derision. There will be no earthly justice but in the gates of heaven there will be total and complete justice from YHVH. They are not getting away with anything; they may think they are but God will have the last laugh. False religion will be exposed and all the false ministers of light will be held in contempt before the courts of heaven. Fake Religion will never be used again to deceive Gods children. No more fairy tales will be taught and all the false doctrine and traditions of men will be exposed. There will be only one second coming and all the rapture teachers will be exposed. The Marriage Supper of the Lamb will be held for all of those who were loyal to YHVH and had taken the time to read and understand the great wedding invitation that had been sent to each and every one of us. There is only one wedding and not 2. Have you read? My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

“Rapture” G # 1611 ekstasis: a displacement (of the mind), i.e. bewilderment, ecstasy Original Word: ἔκστασις, εως, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: ekstasis Phonetic Spelling: (ek'-stas-is) Definition: a displacement (of the mind), bewilderment, ecstasy Usage: (properly: distraction or disturbance of mind caused by shock), bewilderment, amazement; a trance. 1839 existémi: to displace, to stand aside from Original Word: ἐξίστημι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: existémi Phonetic Spelling: (ex-is'-tay-mee) Definition: to displace, to stand aside from Usage: (lit: I remove from a standing position), (a) in trans. tenses: I astonish, amaze, (b) in intrans. tenses: I am astonished, amazed; insane… I am out of my mind, am mad. Language is a funny thing; when you speak you want people to understand you. If you use the wrong words to describe your thoughts nobody will understand what you’re saying. With synonyms, colloquialisms and brogues, you can get lost even if you’re familiar with a language. When you translate from one language to another you run into a whole new set of problems. Every language is different and the best way to understand it is to understand the culture of a language. So you ask yourself why would God let mans culture enter into His words to mankind in the Bible? There are many ways you could answer this question but I won’t pretend to know the mind of God. There are some parts of the Bible that are literal and others are allegory and still others are symbolic. There are certain themes that reoccur over and over as types and similitudes. There are very specific dates and times given and yet other themes have no dates and seem to come out of nowhere. There are no contradictions and no mistakes. Only your understanding is misguided. One reoccurring theme in the Bible is acrostics. My favorite is the number 7 that represents the perfection of YHVH. When it is used in prophesy it is rarely actually 7. It is a perfect number to be decided by YHVH and when He is ready to reveal it to you He will. 7 years of Daniel Most of the Hidden Manna will never be understood until you have a working knowledge of the manuscripts in their entirety. The third level of understanding is a mystery to most of the world. God has always preserved this level of understanding to the remnant throughout history. This is found in John 21:15 through 17. Many Christians are stuck on this literal view of scripture. It’s hard for them to take the pages of the Bible and apply them to reality and relate them to the world around them. If reality doesn’t conform to their understanding of scripture they simply discard it. Christianity isn’t a religion it’s a reality and the way things really are. It doesn’t conform to your understanding of it, but the opposite. One example of this is the age of the earth. Many can’t distinguish between a span of time which is called eon in Greek and time itself. This should be an elementary level of understanding but many Christians fail the test of time and dispensations of it. With the mountains of evidence all around them they still claim the earth is only 6000 years old. They fail to see the earth has been rearranged many times by our Father but it is still same the earth. In my travels and interaction with Christians they can be some of the narrowest minded people on earth. Most of them know very little about the Bible and the faith they prescribe too. What is even more troubling to me is that most of them pose as if they are experts. Pastors are by far the worst. For example I will focus on the word “rapture”. When you examine the literal meaning of the English word itself it has nothing to with the second coming or an appearing as they call it. Below is an example from the Webster’s dictionary. rap•ture [ˈrap(t)SHər] NOUN a feeling of intense pleasure or joy: "Leonora listened with rapture" SIMILAR: ecstasy bliss euphoria elation exaltation joy joyfulness NORTH AMERICAN ENGLISH (THE RAPTURE) (according to some millenarian teaching) the transporting of believers to heaven at the Second Coming of Christ: "thousands of Christians gathered outside Rochester and other cities, awaiting the Rapture" "people will be raptured out of automobiles as they are driving along" Even Webster is confused by calling it the second coming when rapture teachers call it an appearing. As you should be able to see the word itself has nothing to do with the second coming or an appearing but it is a description of feelings of euphoria. To top it off the word is not found anywhere in scripture but the word joy is. What is even more troubling is they associate the word rapture with the words “caught up” and the Greek word Harpadzo. Intense joy or euphoria has nothing to do with being caught up. They have high jacked the words caught up and Harpadzo and turned them into a circus side show. These words should never be associated with each other when rightly dividing scripture. They have broken all the rules of hermeneutics and turned Gods word into a Hollywood d rated movie. It is just so fundamentally wrong on so many levels but yet most of the Christian church believes in this fairy tale. The expression “Coming” Strong'’s Greek # 3952 parousia: a presence, a coming Original Word: παρουσία, ας, ἡ: parousia Phonetic Spelling: (par-oo-see'-ah) Short Definition: presence, a coming, arrival, advent Definition: (a) presence, (b) a coming, an arrival, advent, especially of the second coming of Christ. (parousía) is a "technical term with reference to the visit of a king or some other official, 'a royal visit' " (Souter) – "hence, in the NT, specifically of the Advent or Parousia of Christ" Matthew 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man COMING in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. As you can see the words appearing and coming are used in the same verse to describe the second coming; If you come to somebody you will automatically appear to them. The expression “Appearing” Strong's Greek # 3700 appear, look, see optanomai: to appear Word: ὀπτάνομαι Transliteration: optanomai Phonetic Spelling: (op-tan'-om-ahee) I appear, am seen (by), let myself be seen (by).A (middle voice) prolonged form of the primary (middle voice) optomai (op'-tom-ahee); which is used for it in certain tenses; and both as alternate of horao; to gaze (i.e. With wide-open eyes, as at something remarkable; and thus differing from blepo, which denotes simply voluntary observation; and from eido, which expresses merely mechanical, passive or casual vision; while theaomai, and still more emphatically its intensive theoreo, signifies an earnest but more continued inspection; and skopeo a watching from a distance) -- appear, look, see, shew self. 2015 epiphaneia: appearance Original Word: ἐπιφάνεια, ας, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: epiphaneia Phonetic Spelling: (ep-if-an'-i-ah) Definition: appearance Usage: appearing, manifestation, glorious display. appearance, brightness. From epiphanes; a manifestation, i.e. (specially) the advent of Christ (past or future) -- appearing, brightness. see GREEK epiphanes This applies to the past present and future and not just the second coming 2016 epiphanés: notable Original Word: ἐπιφανής, ές Part of Speech: AdjectiveTransliteration: epiphanies Phonetic Spelling: (ep-if-an-ace') Definition: notable Usage: manifest, glorious, illustrious. Caught Up G # 726 harpazó: to seize, catch up, snatch away Original Word: ἁρπάζω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: harpazó Phonetic Spelling: (har-pad'-zo) Definition: to seize, catch up, snatch away Usage: I seize, snatch, obtain by robbery. catch, seize, take by force. From a derivative of haireomai; to seize (in various applications) -- catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force). see GREEK haireomai By all indications the word harpadzo describes the separation of the soul and spirit from the physical body as they are snatched away by force and go back to the Father in heaven. Not the physical body flying around in space and removed from the earth. When is the last time you saw a person fly around in the sky? 142 airó: to raise, take up, lift Original Word: αἴρωPart of Speech: Verb Transliteration: airó Phonetic Spelling: (ah'-ee-ro) Definition: to raise, take up, lift Usage: I raise, lift up, take away, remove. to take up, take away A primary root; to lift up; by implication, to take up or away; figuratively, to raise (the voice), keep in suspense (the mind), specially, to sail away (i.e. Weigh anchor); by Hebraism (compare nasa') to expiate sin -- away with, bear (up), carry, lift up, loose, make to doubt, put away, remove, take (away, up).see HEBREW nasa' 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. >Here are your Greek words that are key to understanding these verses G 726 “caught up” (har-pad'-zo) to seize, catch up, snatch away obtain by robbery. G 3509 “clouds”; nephos a dense crowd, a multitude, great company. G 5590 “psuché”: breath, the soul (a) the vital breath, breath of life, (b) the human soul, Air G#109 aér air, the lower air we breathe. From aemi (to breathe unconsciously, i.e. Respire; by analogy, to blow); "air" (as naturally circumambient) My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

Called –Chosen- Foreknowledge- Predestined –Justified- Glorified Before the Foundations of the Earth Ephesians 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love: 5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. Isaiah 45:4 For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. Isaiah 65:9 And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. Matthew 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. 1 Peter 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Titus 1:1 Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness; 2 Timothy 1:9 Called Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began, Jude 1:1 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called: Called –Chosen- Foreknowledge- Predestined –Justified- Glorified What are these words referring to? How can you be called before the world began? What does Foreknowledge really mean? All of the above words are referring to Gods Elect and what they accomplished in an age or eon of time before this one. Foreknowledge is referring to Gods knowledge of our actions in the first age. He knows what you did before. He also knows what you will do in the future and He can choose to know or He can choose not to know. This is the whole point of free will, you have a choice to love God or not to. In the original purpose of our existence we were to give God pleasure and fellowship and also our love. We were also given free will. Love without the free will to give it isn’t real love; it would be a simple act of obedience. In His infinite wisdom God knew the difference in the first age and everybody including the Anointed Cherub (satan) had free will. At some point in time of this pre existence there was a great rebellion led by satan and a full 1/3rd of Gods children rebelled with him. This age of carnality is a plan of redemption for those who followed satan in that first age. YHVH would go to the ends of the universe to redeem their love. We are now in the councils of YHVH. This will only end after the GWTJ and those who still choose to follow satan will be destroyed. We will then go back to the original propose of YHVH. A glimpse into the first age and the original propose of our existence Job 38:4 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. 5 Who hath laid the measures thereof, if thou knowest? or who hath stretched the line upon it? 6 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof; 7 When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy? YHVH had a contingent plan all along in Jesus Christ as He is called the Word of God and in Him was the plan of redemption for mankind before the foundation of the this world. Dispensations of time are a complete mystery to most Christians, but they are written in plain sight in the Bible. If you can believe in the Millennium and Eternity which are both future dispensations of time, you should be able to open your mind up to past dispensations of time. The Millennium where time does pass and Eternity where time is nonexistent are both dispensations of time. YHVH is the creator of time and He holds the clock in His hand. He can start and stop it at any time He so chooses but Christians can’t see past a 6000 year old earth. Why would Greek words such as Kosmos or Eon even exist if there weren’t dispensations of time? Although it is not conclusive on exactly how old the earth is, science has proven beyond a reasonable doubt the earth is millions of years old. Quantum physics is a proven science and it acknowledges the duality of the temporal and non temporal worlds or dimensions that exist side by side. When you contemplate the vast expanse of the universe and the fact it could take a million years to reach a star, how on earth can you claim the earth is only 6000 years old? The ignorance in Christianity is astounding to me. So much of the Bible will never be understood until you grasp the concept of a timeless God, who has started and then stopped the hands of time whenever He so chooses. He lives outside the bounds of time and space The concept of predestination and free will has to examined in this light in order to understand it in its fullness. Nothing you can do in this dispensation of time will predestinate you to a predetermined outcome if you haven’t done anything to deserve it. It’s not about what you “will do” but rather “what you have done”. Predestination requires a pre-existence…period. Sure, YHVH knows all and has foreknowledge of all so then why is there free will? If everything is predetermined, why bother with Jesus and the plan of salvation? All souls are called to salvation by what Christ did on the cross but you must understand the difference between being called to salvation and the calling of Gods election. Gods elect are called to bring others into salvation and the calling of salvation is given to those with free will. Gods elect have already attained the wife status of YHVH. Those with free will are “called to salvation” and after they are saved they will be betrothed to Christ until the marriage supper of the Lamb. Only then will they proceed to the “married wife” status. Only when you understand the “Fullness of Time”, will you understand who the first-fruits truly are and the difference between free will and predestination. All souls are divided into 3rds depending on what they did in the Great Overthrow of satan in the first world age found in Revelation 12:4. One third stood with God and fought against the dragon. One third didn’t do anything but sit on their duff. The final third stood with satan and worshiped him as if he were god. The third that stood with God and were loyal to Him are Gods elect. The other two thirds have free will. Gods elect are predestined, called and chosen, justified and glorified for their loyalty to YHVH. They are here to help the others find their way back to the Father. It is predetermined that they will see the plan of salvation and accept it. Their footsteps are ordered-ordained by God. Any other understanding of predestination and free will is a fairy tale. The foreknowledge of God is a reference to what you did in the first age, only He knows what you did; it has nothing to do with your future actions. On the other hand YHVH knows all; past, present and future.

To all my Christian and even non Christians friends and neighbors. If you as a US citizen are sitting back in your little comfort zone and doing nothing to stand against the absolute tyranny that has engulfed our nation you are part of the problem. So many Americans are oblivious to what is happening in our nation right now and we are in danger of losing our country and you sit there twitting your thumbs. Freedom requires sacrifice on many levels and if you’re not willing to make the sacrifice you deserve to lose your freedom. Our beloved America is hanging on by a thread. Think of all the men and women who have sacrificed their lives for this nation and you can’t even lift a finger to save her in her time of need. This is especially true in the Churches where they isolate themselves and sing coom by ya while the world is going to hell in a hand basket. Pastors who won’t stand up for righteousness are nothing but gutless wonders that say nothing and do nothing about the evil that has taken over America. If you don’t stand for something you stand for nothing and you’re worthless. Instead of preaching and standing against sin you embrace it in the name of tolerance and sloppy agape love. Without freedom you won’t be able to preach the gospel and then you will be forced to fight for the right or go underground. The great commission is in part dependent on your ability to spread the gospel and standing up for your country should be first priority so you can evangelize. This was the whole point of our founding fathers was to have the freedom to spread the gospel without the hindrance of the tyranny that existed in England at that time. This may be hard for many of my Christian brothers and sisters to hear but it has to be said. Many Christians are too focused on themselves and their walk with God. For them it’s mainly about platitudes and attitudes and their struggles with sin. There’s nothing wrong with this but there is much more to Christianity. The love and forgiveness you have found in God should cause you to want others to have the same thing. This involves many aspects of life. You not only want others to be saved but you should also want an atmosphere for that to happen. You should also want to see others mature in their faith and grow in knowledge and wisdom through the teaching of the Bible. What I see in the Church is a selfish Christianity. Many are focused on Church activities and have isolated themselves from the culture and world around them. As a result the world is becoming more and more anti God every day. What good is the Church or an individual if they have lost their saltiness? If you’re not willing to be a Mathew 10 Christian you are impotent and powerless. Matthew 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. 34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. Every Christian should confront sin and false doctrine in the world and this is found in Jude 1:3. When you earnestly contend for the faith it s like being in a fight to the finish and you should contend to win at all cost. This is not a game. We are not playing Church. Your faith should be in love but it should also be a confrontational faith that will stand for righteousness. This is not about your personal comfort; it’s about the cause of Christ and others. You should be willing to put others before you. You should be willing to also make sacrifices for your country so that future generations can enjoy the freedom you now have. The LORD will stand with those who are willing to fight for freedom and righteousness but He will turn His back on the coward who dies a thousand deaths every day. Politics Conflating your trust in God and your trust in man is a mistake. Trust in man is contingent on his submission to God and your ability to discern the difference. Trust in God is not contingent on God but you. If you are under submission to the Holy Spirit you can be trusted, but if not, you cannot be trusted. The Bible is full of examples of kings-politicians who were under submission of the Holy Spirit to carry out the will of God in the kingdom. Daniel, Joseph, Cyrus, Nebuchadnezzar and even the king of Babylon over Zedekiah were all used by God in the political arena. King Zedekiah disobeyed God by not submitting to the king of Babylon and as a result all of his sons were killed and he had his eyes put out and he was killed also. To say that Christians shouldn’t be involved in politics and the affairs of men is a contradiction of God’s Word and a flaw in your interpretation and thinking. If you look out into the real world and your interpretation of God’s word doesn’t fit real life situations you must adjust your thinking and not adjust the Bible to your thinking. To even further this point, you must not try and convince others of your own flaws in the interpretation of God’s word lest you be held accountable for misleading God’s children. Even bad rulers can be part of the will of God and if is ok with Him it should be ok with us. What should be considered number one on every Christians “to do” list is to preach the gospel to others. By being in submission to higher powers you are able to preach the gospel even if they are evil. Submission doesn’t mean abeyance necessarily. It’s harder to preach the gospel to the masses if you’re in jail. Submission frees you up to spread the gospel even if it is behind closed doors. It was actually Gods will that king Zedekiah be submitted to the king of Babylon. Why? Because Judah had been disobedient to the Lord and deserved His punishment. Kiss the paddle and don’t whine about it-it’s a sign that God loves you and He is willing to take the time to chastise you and get you back on track. This applies to a nation or an individual. The ideal situation is to have the freedom that America has provided to spread the gospel and it should be defended to the last man. We have almost lost this precious freedom while the Church has stood by and let it happen in the name of separation of church and state. Also the threat of the removal of 501C3 status has cut them off at the knees. Pastors have kept their mouths shut for way to long and it’s time to speak out before it’s too late. We should never be involved in the dirty game of partisan politics but we should stand for righteous principles and back those who stand for righteousness. Pastors can use these guidelines with wisdom and be involved in every aspect of leadership in government. Instead they choose to sit back and say nothing out of fear. Faith is the opposite of fear and fear is an enemy of the cause of Christ. We don’t lose ground we take it. By all definitions America has gone into captivity under a foreign power just as the children of Israel. America is in a unique situation, usually power is either taken by force or elected into office in a republic or a democracy. But the current leaders in America have taken power by fraud. There are only two choices we have to take power back or lose it forever. You may answer the question in your own mind. >Now read the words of Paul below with understanding and realize YHVH is in control; In light of that He still gives us the freedom to make our own choices Romans 13:1 Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. 2 Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. 3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: 4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. 5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. 6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Thomas Jefferson 1802 the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution, To messers. Nehemiah Dodge, Ephraim Robbins, & Stephen S. Nelson, a committee of the Danbury Baptist association in the state of Connecticut. Gentlemen The affectionate sentiments of esteem and approbation which you are so good as to express towards me, on behalf of the Danbury Baptist association, give me the highest satisfaction. my duties dictate a faithful and zealous pursuit of the interests of my constituents, & in proportion as they are persuaded of my fidelity to those duties, the discharge of them becomes more and more pleasing. Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, & not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between Church & State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties. I reciprocate your kind prayers for the protection & blessing of the common father and creator of man, and tender you for yourselves & your religious association, assurances of my high respect & esteem. Thomas Jefferson Jan. 2. 1802. Jefferson wrote back that religious liberty, free from state tampering, would be a key part of the American vision. The Constitution, he wrote, would “restore to man all his natural rights.” In this same letter, Jefferson explained the intent of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution, which reads: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…” This, he said, built a “wall of separation of church and state.” Jefferson was not suggesting that religious people or religious motivations should be exiled from public debate. As a matter of fact, the letter was from a religious people appealing to an elected official for their rights — an elected official who, by the way, attended church services during his administration inside the United States Capitol. In its day, a constitutional prohibition that the state would not establish or restrain personal faith was truly revolutionary. Sadly, in many countries today, religious freedom is still revolutionary. America has the obligation to live this truth and demonstrate the depth of this powerful human right.

KJV 2 Thessalonians 2:2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. NIV 2 Thessalonians 2:2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter—asserting that the day of the Lord has already come. ESV 2 Thessalonians 2:2 not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Bible prophesy is for all Christians and not just Israel. After Christ’s death on the cross all prophesy is for all. Anybody who uses the phrase “replacement theology” doesn’t understand the meaning of Peter’s vision. Nothing is being replaced or dislodged it is being included as the graphed seed. Using the word “church” to replace the general term of Christian is also misleading. Nobody who understands the concept of the graphed seed is replacing Israel with the Church or Christian believers we are all one in the same in the eyes of God. “Church” G # 1577ekklésia: an assembly, a (religious) congregation Original Word: ἐκκλησία, ας, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: ekklésia Phonetic Spelling: (ek-klay-see'-ah) Definition: an assembly, a (religious) congregation Usage: an assembly, congregation, church; the Church, the whole body of Christian believers. assembly, church.

Israelite –Gentile Promised seed and Grafted seed The Vision of Peter Before the death burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ the Israelite children were commanded by YHVH not to mingle or mix with the gentiles. But the vision that Peter had was the beginning of the end of that command because of what Christ had accomplished on the Cross. Now the gentiles could be grafted in and adopted into the family of God through Jesus Christ. In this vision God commanded that Peter call no man “common” or “unclean” if they accepted the plan of salvation through Jesus Christ. By comparing the Gentiles to the unclean animals of Leviticus 11:4, God explains to Peter that the gentiles have been washed clean by the Blood of Jesus Christ and they are no longer “unclean” or “common”. These scriptures have nothing to do with the food laws as God was only using these unclean animals as a metaphor. God did not wash pigs, catfish and vultures but He washed mankind with the Blood of Jesus. PETERS VISION was the beginning of the door being opened for the salvation of all of mankind; Israelite and Gentile through the Blood of Jesus Christ. If you read the following verses in context you will have to come to the conclusion that the vision of Peter was not about eating a BigMac but it was about the beginning of something much bigger….THE SALVATION OF ALL OF MANKIND. The beginning of the adoption process of the gentiles. Paul was sent forth to minister to the Gentiles. Peter was the rock that the Church was built upon. Acts 10:10 And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance, 11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth: 12 Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air. (A representation of the gentiles in their current state) 13 And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat. 14 But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean. (Peter did not understand) 15 And the voice spake unto him again the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. (Cleansed by the blood of Jesus) 16 This was done thrice: and the vessel was received up again into heaven. ---Three times? I like the number 3 17 Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made enquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate, (Proof that God can read your mind as God answers Peters question) 18 And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there. 19 While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. 20 Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them. ---Here is the jest of the entire vision below--- 28 And he said unto them, Ye know how that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another NATION; but God hath shewed me that I should not call any man common or unclean. (Here is the where the word “nation” is found) 34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: (God looks at all of us the same; Israelite and Gentile) 35 But in every NATION he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. (Again the word nation. But not the same Greek word) (see below) 43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins. 44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. (The same tongues of fire in Acts 2 and understood by every language) 45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Did you read that? Amazing) 46 For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, 47 Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we? 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Acts 11:8 But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth. 9 But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common. (Cleansed through the Blood of Jesus) 10 And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven. 17 Forasmuch then as God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God? 18 When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then hath God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life. ---And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Unclean animals-Gentiles…Clean animals- Israelites…Now All have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus. The food laws have not been changed. Pigs are still pigs and vultures are still vultures. Catfish are still bottom feeders. They eat poop-you eat poop when you eat them. Oysters are still filters of the sea. On and on… you eat what they eat… The concepts taught in the vision of Peter are universally misunderstood in Christianity and even Peter didn’t understand it in the beginning. But God confirmed the vision with other men that spoke to Peter as revealed in these latter verses. The subject and object being discussed here is the salvation of the gentiles and not whether or not you should eat a pig sandwich.

Most of time the word nation is translated from the Greek word “Ethnos” but here in Acts 10:28 it is translated “allophulos” meaning; specifically a gentile. My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

There are two types of extremes in the Christian Church of today. Those who believe there is a demon behind every bush and those who believe that satan and his evil spirits do not exist. The evidence is clear and satan with his demonic hoards are alive and well in the modern world. Their influence has grown exponentially in the world today because of the luke warm and impotent Church. It should be duly noted that much of the sin of mankind can be blamed on our fallen nature and not the devil. The main focus of the devil is in the Christian Church and especially those who are devout warriors for the cause of Christ. In fact your own pastor may be under the influence of evil spirits and not even be aware of it. The devil is the great obfuscator; he has no ultimate truth to present to you but his plan is to hide it from you. 2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 2 Corinthians 11:15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. The devil doesn’t present himself as some demonic freak with a pitchfork and blood dripping from his mouth. His MO is that of a great play actor, imposter, impersonator who disguises himself as an angel of light. He knows the scriptures inside and out just as he quoted them even to Christ in the wilderness. He will give you 95% TRUTH and 5% lies; which is exactly what you get in many of the pulpits of America and the world. Never underestimate the supernatural ability of satan. The evidence of the existence of satan and his evil spirits is overwhelming and cannot be denied. The scriptures give us a detailed method of operation of satan and his cohorts. The best way to escape the evil influence of these demonics’ is to live a life free from the shackles of sin and the pleasures of the world. Walk in the spirit and not the carnal and see the world for what it really is. We are all sojourners and this life is a drop in the bucket of time. Store up your treasures in heaven and not this world. Take as many out of the fire as you possibly can. Evil can present itself in many forms. It can be simple disobedience to the 10 Commandments or it can be utter debauchery and wickedness. When evil becomes personified in a person’s life they have generally turned their back on God and denied His very existence. God will then give them over to a reprobate mind and their conscious will have been seared with a hot iron. At this point there may be no turning back. They will then do things that almost seem to be inhuman. Did they commit evil on their own or did the devil make them do it? Only God can be the judge. -The Devils names and roles; 1-Devil 2-Satan 3-Serpent 4-False Prophet 5-Antichrist 6-Abomination of Desolation 7-Lucifer 8-Dragon 9-Tree of knowledge of good and evil 10-Prince and the Power of the air 11-Destroyer 12-Abbadon (Greek) 13-Apolyon (Hebrew) 14-Death 15-Accuser of the Brethren 16-Wormwood 17-Protector of the Mercy Seat 18-Man 19-Prince of Tyrus 20- The Assyrian 21-Thief 22-Waster 23-Little Horn 24-Beast 25-The Anointed Cherub, 26-Tempter, 27-Son of perdition, 28-Wicked man of sin, 29- Father of lies. 30-Bright morning star, 31-Halal, 32-Helel, 33-Spoiler Familiar Spirit H # 780 qasam: to practice divination Original Word: קָסַם Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: qasam Phonetic Spelling: (kaw-sam') Definition: to practice divination diviner prudent, soothsayer, use divination A primitive root; properly, to distribute, i.e. Determine by lot or magical scroll; by implication, to divine -- divine(-r, -ation), prudent, soothsayer, use (divination).

Here is wisdom; Count the number of his name; khee xee stig'-ma Revelation 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding “COUNT” the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. “666” Strong's Greek # 5516 - 666 chxs: abbreviation for six hundred sixty-six Original Word: χξϛ Transliteration: chxs Phonetic Spelling: (khee xee stig'-ma) Short Definition: 666 six hundred sixty-six. The 22nd, 14th and an obsolete letter (stigma as a cross) of the Greek alphabet (intermediate between the 5th and 6th), used as numbers; denoting respectively 600, 60, and 6; 666 as a numeral -- six hundred threescore and six. see GREEK stigma Isaiah 14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; 12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! What does it mean to count the number of his name? Whose name? It is satans name and the wisdom spoken of here is found within the cipher of 666. The wisdom is in the fact that this beast who is none other than satan will stand in the holy place and claim to be god at the 666 seal trump and vial, here are the verses to confirm this so very important fact that many overlook. The first seal tells us satan will be riding a white horse just Jesus will be riding. This is of the utmost importance because the first white horse with satan riding appears at the 666 seal trump and vial before the true Christ. This is the wisdom being spoken of in Revelation 13. Six SOTM 6th –Mark 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it (HE) ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Seal 6th -Revelation 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: (Looking forward) 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Trump 6th Revelation 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. (Revelation 12:9) 16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. 20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. 10 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: (looking forward) 2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, 3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: Vial 6th Revelation 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. 16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. 1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 777 seal trump and vial Both the quick and the dead will be raised or resurrected at the last trump which is the 7th seal trump and vial. When you have gained the wisdom spoken of in Revelation 13:18 you will be made aware of the chronology of the second coming; Antichrist at 666 and Jesus Christ at 777 and its just that simple. Another important fact is this will be a de-jure personal appearance of satan and not a man possessed by satan. There is not a man on earth that could fulfill this role. It is satan himself who will stand in the holy place and claim to be god. Paul makes the point of showing us the difference between a proxy satan and his evil spirit and a personal de-jure satan in 2 Thessalonians 2: 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. The way in which Paul words this makes it very clear there is a difference between a proxy satan and a de-jure satan; The mystery of iniquity is satans evil spirit at work in the world today sense the beginning of time. His evil spirit is hidden to many and that’s why he calls it a mystery because it’s hidden to most people. The second half of the verse is speaking about where satan is being held while the mystery of iniquity is at work in the world today. “Only he” is a reference to Michael who is holding satan in heaven at this moment. “Who now letteth will let” is referring to Michael holding satan. “Until he be taken out of the way” is referring to Michael kicking satan out of heaven to the earth in person. Revelation 12:7-9. As you can see there is a big difference between a proxy satan and a de-jure satan. >Satan is called a man in many places in the Bible. He is also called a beast as well. The hallmark and the number of man are also 6. The subject here is satan and his rein on earth in person after being cast out of heaven with his fallen angels as Revelation 12:9 states. It is also important to recognize the identity of the “smooth stones” as well because they are in full operation in the world today. There are no numbers in the Greek language so this number is taken from the Greek cipher in the first and last letters in the Greek word “Christos”. The third Greek letter in this cipher looks like a serpent and that is just one more clue as to who this is. Both the Hebrew and Greek language have no numbers but they have numerical value within the alphabet. The Greek word for this is called Gematria. >Again, the anti-christ appears at the 6th seal the 6th trump and the 6th vial. The analogy given here is to count the number of his name to determine the chronology of his casting down or his return to the earth in person. This order is given by the number of his name that is 666. The order of Jesus Christ’s return is 777 and he is also representative of the number 7 itself. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to determine that 666 comes before 777 therefore by “counting” the number of his name as you “count the stones worn smooth over a long period of time” we are able to see the methodology of satan from his beginning. Jesus Christ is our rock and not satan. The analogy of the stones as they are given in the Greek tongue is the biggest clue in this very important subject in determining the chronology of his return. The stones worn smooth over a long period of time are symbolic of the seed line of Satan’s children the kenites or the sons of Cain. Their method of operation is evident throughout the Word of God if you have the Key of David and you are able to follow these “smooth stones”. Christ told us that many are unaware of who these “smooth stones” are and their identity will only be given to those who are given the HIDDEN MANNA to partake of. They can open doors that no man can open. >Philadelphia and Smyrna were the only two Churches that taught who these SMOOTH STONES are and they were able to COUNT the number of satans name. If you are not in one of these two Churches you are in a false Church. They are found in Revelation 2:9 and 3:9. These two Churches will be kept from the HOUR of TEMPTATION that is the five month period satan will make his final push to make himself ruler of the world. He will almost deceive the entire world.

The Standard of God The Rainbow of Genesis 9:13 The Standard of YHVH Genesis 9:13 I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth (You and me) Revelation 4:3 And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald. Revelation 10:1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: Now the fake bow below; Revelation 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. The Greek word for BOW is “TOXON” as it is used here and the meaning behind it is a “cheap fabric imitation” “Bow” G # 5115 toxon: a bow Original Word: τόξον, ου, τό Part of Speech: Noun, Neuter Transliteration: toxon Phonetic Spelling: (tox'-on) Definition: a bow From the base of tikto; a bow (apparently as the simplest fabric) -- bow. This is the BOW the antichrist will be wearing when he makes his appearance but many will fail to see it is a fake. Do you know the difference? These are the colors of the real Rainbow in this order There are seven colors which represent the perfection of God in Bible acrostics Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. Notice the perversion of the real rainbow below The original, eight-stripe homosexual flag designed by Baker in 1978 had the following meanings for each color: Hot pink = Sex Red = Life Orange = Healing Yellow = Sunlight Green = Nature Turquoise = Magic/Art Indigo = Serenity Violet = Spirit There are other, location-specific versions of the Pride flag with added meanings, such as this eight-stripe flag created in Philadelphia in 2017. The added black and brown stripes represent diversity and inclusivity. You will be included alright, into the arms of satan. In the Image of God We are made in the image of God and not satan. Satan is actively trying to distort the creation of God by making it his creation. “Image” Hebrew # 6754 tselem: an image Original Word: צֶלֶם Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: tselem Phonetic Spelling: (tseh'-lem) Definition: an image From an unused root meaning to shade; a phantom, i.e. (figuratively) illusion, resemblance; hence, a representative figure, Genesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. Essentially, Eve was not to mix her seed with the devil and distort that Image. The battle for control of the DNA of mankind started in the Garden of Eden. Since the beginning of this earth age there has been a battle for the DNA of mankind. Until recently we didn’t know what the Helix Curve was but the Lord knew it all along. The first prophesy in the Bible is regarding the children of cain and the children of Adam who have different fathers and different DNA. The word “Generation” in Hebrew is from the prime “Talad” H # 3205 in the Strong’s means to give birth, or bear children or “Toldah” the Hebrew word # 8435 in the Strong’s meaning descendent, family or birth. We as human beings are made in the image of God and there is a reason why He calls homosexuality an abomination. He knew that it would eventually lead to the utter perversion we now have in the world today. It is a complete distortion of the image of God and not just a sexual perversion or sexual act. If satan can gain control of procreation he will have thwarted the very plan of God for mankind. There is a concerted attack on pro creation from all sides in the world today. Abortion, the institution of marriage, homosexuality, transgenderism, and a multitude of sexual identities, pedophilia, child mutilations and changing a child’s sex even at age 5. We even have men competing in women’s sports and on and on. This perversion must be recognized for what it really is. It is complete rebellion against God Almighty and purely satanic in nature. The world and especially America celebrates this utter perversion for an entire month which just so happens to be the 6th month. Many in the church have also adopted this perversion as if it were normal. Nobody is willing to stand up for God and defend the faith. This is not a battle of the sexes; it is a battle between satan and God and the creation of God. Man and woman can reproduce but only God can procreate. In almost every city in America during the month of June this perversion is paraded in the streets openly worshiping satan and their own debauchery. In 2015 obama openly proclaimed homosexual marriage as the law of the land after the SCOTUS decision and he displayed the homosexual flag on the WH sealing the fate of America. He was sent to destroy America from within and make no mistake about it. I believe with all my heart the black horse was sent to ride in America in 2016 by God after obama had Scalia murdered so he could replace him with a liberal satan worshiper. Sense that point America has fallen apart. If you as a Christian are not standing up for God, you are standing against Him, there is no in-between. If you don’t stand for something you stand for nothing. You can love the sinner but you should hate the sin they are involved in. It really boils down to who are you loyal too? The world and its evil rudiments or do you stand for righteousness and God Almighty The first mention of DNA Genesis 2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; 22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. “Rib” H # 6760 halt A primitive root: probably to curve; used only as denominative from tsela', to limp (as if one-sided) -- halt. see HEBREW tsela' The Helix Curve Angels of Sodom and Gomorrah Genesis 6:5 As I look at the world today I was struck with this question; >Is the heart of mankind on evil continuously? If God sent his Angels to survey the “earth” would He find 50 righteous men? (The population is much greater now) Or would the homosexual community try to “break the door down” to “know” these angels as they lodged here on earth? Genesis 19:5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, where are the men who came in to thee this night? Bring them out unto us, that we may know them. >This word “know” is an interesting word and would better be rendered; that we may “have” them”. Or; have sodomy with the (angels). >The very next day saw the judgment of God come down on Sodom and Gomorrah >Below are Examples of Nations and civilizations that have come under the Judgment of God: 1>Noah’s flood: And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 2>Sodom and Gomorrah: Genesis 18:26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes. Abraham and God talking Genesis19:1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground; 4But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: 5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them. Matthew 24-37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. >Everything that happened during the time of Noah will happen again except there will be no flood, but instead there will be a consuming fire. >In the case of Sodom and Gomorrah the “gay” community actually came to the door of Lot’s house and literally tried to beat it down .They wanted to have sodomy with the two Angels that came to assess the level of sin and mainly for the act of sodomy. I believe this would happen today 6-19-2015, if the same Angels were dispatched to the earth for a survey of the sin and debauchery that is so prevalent today. >In the case of Noah’s flood, the minds of men were on evil continually and the entire human race had mixed with the fallen angels. Noah and his family were the only humans left with a pure pedigree that hadn’t inner-mixed. God had no choice but to destroy every last one of these creatures that sometimes had six toes and six fingers. They were a perversion of His Natural Order, just like homosexuality is. Make no mistake, the plan of God will happen, it is written, it is recorded. The Judgment of God will come! MV 2015 TheRemnantSeed My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

Have you been Sealed or Marked? Seals Trumps Vials 1st Seal Mark 13:5-6 and Revelation 6:1, 2 2nd Seal Mark13:7 and. Revelation 6:3, 4 3rd Seal Mark 13:8 and Revelation 6:5, 6 4th Seal Mark 13:9 and Revelation 6:7, 8 5th Seal Mark 13:10,11,12,13 and Revelation 6:9, 10, 11 6th Seal Mark 13:14 and Revelation 6:12, 13, 14, 15 7th Seal Mark 13:24, 25, 26, 27 and Revelation 8:1 Entire transcript will be posted in the “Penned Comments” If you will notice the Seals Trumps and Vials are different explanations of the same events that Christ laid out in His Sermon on the Mount. This is the main theme of the book of Revelation along with the description of our Father and the place called Heaven. Within the first four seals are the four horses which many call the four horses of the Apocalypse. In my opinion they over dramatize the horses to draw attention to their presentation. In Zachariah they are called the four spirits of God. A horse is a symbol of power and these are the four powers of deception, war, famine and death. The first horse is white and it is the first order of importance because this is satan transforming himself as Christ in his role as antichrist. The bow around his head is a fake just like him and the Geek word used here is TOXON a cheap fabric imitation of the real rainbow. Out of all of the seals trumps and vials this is the most important one to understand. It is my opinion we have already entered into the birth pangs or beginning of sorrows right before the entrance of the antichrist. The world is rapidly descending into chaos and evil has been unleashed like a flood. If you notice there are words in the seals trumps and vials that are used over and over such as fire, blood, waters, the sea, a third part, the moon and the sun and others. Could these be physical terms used to describe the spiritual is not clear. Also, if you will notice the LORD has told satan to keep his grimy hands off of those who have the seal of God in their minds as found in; Revelation 9:4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. One thing is for sure there is no getting to heaven without shedding the flesh body. All must die in one way or another. Some will suffer before death and others will be changed in the moment in the twinkle of an eye as if they never died. In all of the books where the LORDS DAY is mentioned there is not one reference to a pre tribulation rapture or a great escape. It’s not mentioned in the seals trumps and vials and Christ never said a word about it. It’s not mentioned anywhere in the book of Revelation which is an outline of the time right before the LORDS DAY as mentioned by John in Revelation 1:10. The rapture cult claims a rapture is mentioned in Revelation 4:1 and the Church is not mentioned after that. They are sadly mistaken on both accounts. There is no way the wrath of God will be poured out on His servants. If you are in good standing with the LORD His wrath will pass you by, just as the death angel passed by the children of Israel because of their obedience to the Lord and his commandments. If you are sealed in your mind you will have the instructions on how to deal with the devil in his 5 month rein as antichrist in the HOUR of TEMPTATION. He will be an abomination to you and you will know exactly what is happening at the time. (Flood of Noah and Mary’s time in the wilderness is 5 months) Where many go wrong when interpreting the book of Revelation is the chronology of it. It jumps from one age to the next and it has to be rightly dived to understand it. Revelation 12 is a good example of this; it covers a wider span of time than any other chapter in God’s word. There are also parenthetical chapters that break away from the main theme and then go back to it again. The seven seals trumps and vials are used to outline the second coming and the time right before which is called the LORDS DAY in Revelation 1:10. John starts off with the seven churches and then quickly goes into the seven seals. The emphasis on the seals is you the child of God sealing them in your mind before the fact so you will be prepared to recognize them as they come to pass. A seal is a signet as in a king’s signet when he seals an envelope with a message inside and it is only to be read by the person it is addressed to. The 7 seals trumps and vials are to you the Christian. We are currently in a time of sealing and learning to prepare us for the great tribulation to come upon the entire world. Once these truths are sealed in your mind you will be ready for the greatest deception mankind has ever seen. Think of the SEAL as a preservation of truth sealed in your mind In the Sermon on the Mount Christ gives us a step by step outline of the seven seals. Everything you need to prepare is written in Mark 13 Mathew 24 and Luke 21 and if it’s not found there it is not relevant to the time right before the LORDS DAY. The seals found in Revelation 6 and 8 are a further explanation of the Sermon on the Mount and what you must do to prepare. The seals are given to you by order of importance but they are not in chronological succession. Once the truth is sealed in the minds of all who are prescribed in Gods timing the trumps and vials will be ready to sound and the action to be taken. At some point in time the trumpet will sound as a warning to prepare for the vial or action to be carried out. The trumpet is used to announce the action as in a battle call. Our Father in Heaven will give us plenty of warning and He will also give us plenty of time to seal our minds to prepare. The sound of the trumpet may not necessarily be a trumpet The Christians who have taken the time to read the Word of God and understand it will recognize the signs of the times. They will also hear the trump as it sounds and understand the vials are being poured out in the final hours of this age. The vials are a time of action. In Revelation 7:3 YHVH has held back the end of time in order to seal all who are to be sealed with knowledge of the truth to prepare them. We are foretold all things. The first mention of the trumps found in Revelation 8:2 is a further elaboration of the seals and the action to be taken right before the LORDS DAY. When interpreting the Bible some concepts are very literal but the Book of Revelation is very symbolic. Be aware that some of the trumps and vials may run together or even repeat themselves. You won’t hear a literal trumpet blowing and an announcement being made “we are now in the 5th trump”. If you have heard the thunder keep in mind the lightning has already struck. Also keep in mind that some trumps and vials may run together simultaneously. Keep your mind open and be ready to change at any moment, these are only an outline of things to come. There are many things that have happened in the past that would fit the descriptions of the seals trumps and vials but keep in mind that satan has never stood physically in the Holy place and claimed to be god in all of history. In my mind the trumps and vials become sequential at the number 6 and 7; 666 and 777. Satan standing in the Holy place as the abomination of the desolator (antichrist) and then the second coming of Christ have never happened in all of history. Joel chapter 2 and Zachariah 14 both describe the DAY of the LORD as well. It is clear that ALL flesh will die at the second coming and this in itself is very graphic. Everybody at this time is changed into spiritual bodies, good bad and ugly. Some resurrected to immortality and others resurrected to mortality, all will be changed. One SOTM 1st Mark 13:5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you: 6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Seal 1st - Revelation 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. Trump 1st Revelation 8:7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up. Vial 1st Revelation 16:2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. Two SOTM 2nd -Mark 13:7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. Seal 2nd – Revelation 6:3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword. (taking peace isn’t necessarily war) Trump 2nd Revelation 8:8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood; 9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed. Vial 2nd Revelation 16:3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea. Three SOTM 3rd -Mark 13:8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows. Seal 3rd -Revelation-6:5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. (These are the beginnings of birth pangs) Trump 3rd Revelation 8:10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; 11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter. Vial 3rd Revelation 16:4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus. 6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy. 7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments. Four SOTM 4th -Mark 13:9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. Seal 4th –Revelation 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Trump 4th Revelation 8:12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise. 13 And I beheld, and heard an angel (eagle) flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabiters of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound! (Three woe Trumps) Vial 4th Revelation 16:8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. 9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory. Five SOTM 5th -Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations. 11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. 13 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Seal 5th Revelation-6:9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: 10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? 11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled. Trump 5th Revelation 9:1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads. 5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. 6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. 7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. 8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. 9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. 10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months. 11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. 12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter. Vial 5th Revelation 16:10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain, 11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds. Six SOTM 6th –Mark 13:14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it (HE) ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: Seal 6th -Revelation 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: (Looking forward) 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Trump 6th Revelation 9:13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, 14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates. 15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men. (Revelation 12:9) 16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them. 17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone. 18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths. 19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. 20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk: 21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts. 10 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire: (looking forward) 2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth, 3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. 4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. 5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: Vial 6th Revelation 16:12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. 15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. 16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon. Seven SOTM 7th –Mark 13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. Seal 7th-Revelation 8:1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. (Looking from the vantage point of the 6th seal) And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. 3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. 4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. 5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake. 6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound. Trump 7th Revelation10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. Vial 7th Revelation 16:17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done. “Plague” G # 4127 Original Word: πληγή, ῆς, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: plégé Phonetic Spelling: (play-gay') Definition: a blow, wound Usage: a blow, stripe, wound; an affliction, plague. wound, stripe From plesso; a stroke; by implication, a wound; figuratively, a calamity -- plague, stripe, wound(-ed). see GREEK plesso 4141 pléssó: to strike Original Word: πλήσσω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: pléssó Phonetic Spelling: (place'-so) Definition: to strike Usage: I strike, smite.

Zachariah 14:1 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, and thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. 2 For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. 3 Then shall the LORD go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. 4 And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south. 5 And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountains; for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah: and the LORD my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. 6 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: 7 But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. 8 And it shall be in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem; half of them toward the former sea, and half of them toward the hinder sea: in summer and in winter shall it be. 9 And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one. 10 All the land shall be turned as a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem: and it shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananeel unto the king's winepresses. 11 And men shall dwell in it, and there shall be no more utter destruction; but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. 12 And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the people that have fought against Jerusalem; Their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their holes, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth. 13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour. 14 And Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance. 15 And so shall be the plague of the horse, of the mule, of the camel, and of the ass, and of all the beasts that shall be in these tents, as this plague. 16 And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. 17 And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. 18 And if the family of Egypt go not up, and come not, that have no rain; there shall be the plague, wherewith the LORD will smite the heathen that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. 19 This shall be the punishment of Egypt, and the punishment of all nations that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles. 20 In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses, HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD's house shall be like the bowls before the altar. 21 Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holiness unto the LORD of hosts: and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein: and in that day there shall be no more the Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts. Joel 2:1 Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand; 2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. 3 A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. 4 The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. 5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. 6 Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. 7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks: 8 Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded. 9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. 10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: 11 And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? 12 Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. 14 Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the LORD your God? 15 Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: 16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. 17 Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O LORD, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God? 18 Then will the LORD be jealous for his land, and pity his people. 19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen: 20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things. 21 Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things. 22 Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yield their strength. 23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. 24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil. 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. 26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed. 27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed. 28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come. 32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Always keep in mind the antichrist is the greatest actor of all times. He would do anything to take the throne away from our heavenly Father. Everything he does is designed to pull you away from God. One of his main tools is false religion. All the way back to the first age he was the cause of the great overthrow and deception is his game. He will never present a truth to you first hand but he will obfuscate the truth and make it hidden or unrecognizable. He has over 33 roles-titles and occupations but they are all the same entity. He is a supernatural Cherub that once had the title of protector of the mercy seat. Now he comes to steal kill and destroy all who will not follow him. I believe this is why the Greek language uses the title “antichrist” because it best describes all of his titles roles and occupations he uses to deceive you. Isn’t it ironic all of these titles roles and occupations are found in the little preposition “anti” which in the English language has a completely different meaning than the Greek. Even the translations have been used to obfuscate the truth from you the English reader and if you don’t take the time to study the original languages of the Bible this would be hidden from you. It’s up to you to uncover it. If you will notice the word “serpent” is used in the Garden of Eden and it is also used in Revelation 12. Satan is a supernatural liar the great divine orator just as he whispered in Eve’s ear he will do the same to believers in the end times to win their hand in marriage as the false messiah the fake bride groom. He will seduce you just as he did Eve in the Garden of Eden. Paul spoke about this 1 Corinthians 11 and the entire Bible is filled with the same warning. Why is deception one of the main themes of the Bible? Because satan is the great deceiver. Loyalty to our Father is another main theme of the Bible and the only way to find this out is to read it with understanding. This life is a test of your loyalty. Christ said if you love me you will keep my commandments and the first one is, Love the LORD thy God with all your heart. He also said my sheep will know my voice. They will know His voice because they have read His Word. Every title satan is given is a specific role he plays in this game called life. Each role is designed to deceive you and satan believes he can win this game. Your eternal soul is the prize and satan believes he can steal it away from YHVH. This is not a game, it is real and you must play to win and run towards the mark of the high calling of Christ Jesus. How will the end of this age play out? I believe satan will use every trick in his playbook because he knows this is it. Satan knows the Word of God and he will use it to deceive you. He will imitate the second coming in every way to make you believe he is the messiah. If you want to see his MO just look at the real second coming of Jesus Christ. The infrastructure for the greatest deception in history is already in place. What I see is a “deadly wound” to this current beast system that will be catastrophic. It will be worldwide and be nothing like we have ever seen. All of the systems that make this beast system work will fail. Will it be by design or will it be accidental? One thing is for sure it will be so bad that only satan as the false messiah will be able to fix it. He will make his appearance in a peaceful and prosperous way claiming to have all of the solutions. (Daniel 8:25) Satan’s supernatural abilities Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. 2 Thessalonians 2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, Revelation 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. Revelation 16:14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. Matthew 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: 29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit. 30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come. 32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call. Satan will try and imitate all of these verses above. The second coming is brought forth as a wedding ceremony Satan is the false bridegroom The only way you will understand the meaning of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb is if you realize there are two bridegrooms. One is real and other a fake. Every one of the verses below are parables with the same theme, do you as a Christian know the voice of thy Bridegroom? Will you be able to proceed to the Marriage ceremony to being a wife? If you have given your hand in marriage to the fake bridegroom and lost your virginity you will be rejected by the real Bridegroom. 2 Corinthians11:1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. Matthew 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. Matthew 22:3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. Matthew 22:8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Matthew 22:11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: Matthew 22:12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Luke 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately. Revelation 19:9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. Matthew 22:1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Luke 23:29 For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck. Isaiah 54:5 For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called. Isaiah 54 Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD. Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited. ... So in the end the true litmus test is; If everybody is running around saying Christ has returned and you’re still in your flesh body it has not happened yet. My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

The question is; Are there any prophesies that have to be fulfilled before the second coming? The answer is yes and they are obvious. The scripture references are 2 Thessalonians 2:3 and Revelation 11. Also Mark 13 Luke 21 and Mathew 24 are a complete outline of the 7 Trumps and a chronological outline of the end times leading up to the second coming. It is blatantly obvious the so called pre tribulation rapture is not mentioned in Mark 13 Luke 21 or Matthew 24 in Christ’s dissertation to the disciples on the chronology of His Second Coming. Why is that? Because it’s not there. It will not happen in the way these false teachers claim it will. In fact Christ teaches the chronology is the exact opposite of the pre trib rapture people. For example, the rapture people claim 1 Thessalonians 4:17 is the rapture when in reality it is speaking of His second coming. To add insult to injury they also claim the same verse has chronology attached to it because this is their go to verse for the pre tribulation rapture. Their assumptions are wrong on two points right from the start. I call this a bait and switch and textual high jacking. It violates Revelation 22 in every sense of the word. What should be obvious to everybody is Paul’s outline leading up to the second coming or “gathering back” as he calls it in 2 Thessalonians 2. The entire chapter is dedicated to the chronology of the second coming and he starts it off by saying; I beseech you brethren about our gathering together; it will not happen until after the great apostasy and the wicked man of sin is revealed. There is no mention of a pre gathering together or rapture at all. The second epistle of Thessalonians was hastily written in order to clear up the question regarding the gathering together or second coming as many were confused at that time. Some believed Christ had already come back and they missed it and others were expecting Christ to come back at any moment. Paul clears this up and told them what to expect before the second coming. This is the first mention of the “any moment” doctrine or the “imminent return” doctrine. In essence Paul made it clear that the imminent return of Christ was contingent on the two criteria which are; the great apostasy would take place and the wicked man of sin would be revealed before Christ’s return. This will be the great dividing line between now and the second coming of Christ. If you haven’t seen the son of perdition stand in the holy place and claim to be god the second coming of Christ will not be imminent until then. This was the whole point of the entire second chapter of 2 Thessalonians 2. This was for the people of Paul’s time and it is for you now in the current time. You have to ask yourself; why are the pre trib rapture teachers ignoring the teachings of Paul? Why are they claiming the return of Christ is imminent when it’s not? The son of perdition is the cause of the great tribulation in Mathew 24:29 so your chronology of the second coming is made very clear by Paul and Jesus, why would you need to go elsewhere for the chronology of the second coming? Here is another example of the scriptural gymnastics the pre trib rapture people use. They claim 1 Thessalonians 4:17 is the rapture but 2 Thessalonians 2 is post rapture. In reality 2 Thessalonians 2 was written to give chronology to 1 Thessalonians 4:17 which is the second coming. This is the type of contortion and twisting they do in order to make this false doctrine fit their narrative. They have to twist half of God’s word to make this so blatant a lie fit. Another lie put forward by these false teachers is that some of these prophesies regarding the second coming are written only to the Jews. They claim the Jesus is the Messiah to all but His prophesies are not. This is a basic misunderstanding of the “grafted seed” and the gentiles are now included in all of Jesus prophesies. He died on the cross for all of us and His second coming for all who believe on Jesus. I would categorize the second coming with two sets of beliefs. The first would be those who believe there will be only one second coming. The second would be those who believe there will be two second comings or as they would call it; an appearing and a coming. 1st-The chronology of the one and only second coming is clearly laid forth by Jesus and Paul and is specifically laid out in 2 Thessalonians 2, Matthew 24, Luke 21 and Mark 13. Revelation 11 speaks of the last 3-1/2 days of this age before the one and only return of Christ. 2nd-The chronology of the pre trib rapture is not directly referred to anywhere in scripture and cannot be documented. The choice is clear. The pre trib rapture is a fairy tale. I would use the term “fairy tail” because the rapture doctrine is a replay of Revelation 12:4. And his TAIL drew a third part of Gods children into the arms of the antichrist the false messiah and they worshiped him as if he were god therefore taking the mark of the beast. 2 Thessalonians 2 is the only chapter in Gods word that directly refers to the term “gathering back” # 3952 parousia and # 3700 appear, look, see optanomai in the Greek. The word rapture is not there or the concept of two second comings is not there either. If the pre tribulation rapture was a Bible concept this would be the place you would hope to find it. But it is nowhere to be found and it is conspicuously absent. There is no need to consult history or the false accounts of the origins of the rapture doctrine they are all a distraction from the truth. Pre trib, post trib, mid trib, are all unneeded nomenclature. They all post labels on the second coming that are misleading. Christ died for all who believe and He is coming back for all who believe. His second coming will also affect all who are alive and remain on the earth at the time of His second coming because all flesh will perish at this time. If your trumps, seals, vials, woes, appearing, comings, don’t align themselves with 2 Thessalonians 2 Revelation 11 and Mark 13, Luke 21 and Mathew 24, you got it wrong my friends. If you are adding or taking away from any of the words spoken on this issue by Christ, Paul or John you are in violation of; Revelation 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: (The whole Book) 19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. 2 Thessalonians 2 King James Version (KJV) 2 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition 4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Within these verses above and also below is your chronology. The wicked be revealed and immediately after that the second coming and only in that order. Revelation 12:9, Luke 10:18, John 12:31, Revelation 13:13 Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 9 Even him, (Christ) whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, The second coming is after the working of satan which causes the FALLING AWAY. Revelation 11:3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. 10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. 11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. 12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. 13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven. 14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. 15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

The editors of the NA/UBS text severely criticized the Textus Receptus, going as far as characterizing the Textus Receptus as the “poorest form of the New Testament text”. The introduction to the Nestle-Aland 26th edition says: That theology and one’s worldview heavily affect the decisions that go into textual criticism. What is the most alarming fact to me is the insensitivity to the truth that exists in the pulpits of modern Christianity. They seem to have an “Its good enough” attitude towards the new translations without truly examining them. How can they make the decision they are good enough if they haven’t vetted them with the utmost scrutiny? This goes to the heart of the inerrancy of scripture and the Divine inspiration they provide. If it’s not Gods word what is it? If the translation you are reading has been done by a non Christian what are you left with? This is a fundamental issue that is completely overlooked in modern Christianity. At the heart of the matter is our loyalty to the Father in Heaven and His inspired Word to each and every one of us. By using a faulty translation you are usurping His Divine authority and limiting the power of His Written Word. This same attitude is carried forth when it comes to Passover which they call easter and Christ’ birth date they call Christmas. Celebrated on the wrong days and called the wrong names. Not to mention all of the false doctrine brought forward by the modern Church. It’s no wonder Christianity is on the decline. Without Divine inspiration the natural man can never understand the things of God when approached by his own intellect. But yet that is exactly what is happening in the modern Church. They are using translations that have been done by non Christians whether knowingly are unknowingly the result is the same. The Church has lost its power and Divine authority, as a result it has become impotent. As non Greek or Hebrew speakers-readers we can only rely on what the Holy Spirit bears witness to when it comes to our understanding of translations. Just as the Inspired Word was written through the hands of men I believe the Word has also been preserved by the hands of men. The question then becomes; which men? Who has the Divine authority? Being from Whales may include some bias on my behalf but I do feel that YHVH had His hand on King James and the translators He brought forward to preserve His Word in the English. King James had Divine authority to do so. The United Kingdom is called by many in the UK; The United Kingdom of Israel and it just so happens to be a hub for the migrations of the 12 tribes of Israel. Isn’t it ironic the scepter would never depart from Judah and the UK monarchy has never departed from England? Prince Charles was just crowned and the Stone of Scone (Jacobs Pillar) was there in plain sight under the Coronation Chair. It has now been overturned 3 times. It is a well known fact that one of the main duties of the King and Queen of the UK is Protector of the Christian faith. Despite all the criticism of the royal family this is still the case. In my mind the real question when it comes to translations and the controversy about which one is the best comes down to Divine authority. Who actually has the authority to choose which one should be used? No doubt the translators should be Christian and their lives scrutinized to the highest degree possible. Their academic qualifications should be stellar as well but most importantly have they been given the Divine authority by God Himself. In modern times we have basically two sources of manuscripts; The Textus Receptus and the Nestle-Aland/United Bible Society (NA/UBS) text, published by the Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft (German Bible Society). The KJV is based on a Greek New Testament text called the Textus Receptus, first published by Desiderius Erasmus in 1516 and subsequently revised by a number of scholars. From my puny perspective most of the attitudes and platitudes in the NT have been left intact but the more complicated subjects have been altered and especially when it comes to the deity of Christ. The ESV is one of the best translations but it has problems just as the KJV. The alterations are very subtitle and fly under the radar to most. If the devil weren’t involved in this he would be remiss in my humble opinion. He has succeeded in watering down the original text and made it less effective and limited its power…again my opinion. I believe this has contributed to the decline in Christianity among many other things. It is undeniable that the men behind the Textus Receptus were Bible-believers whereas the men behind the NA/UBS text were theological liberals. In making this comparison, one should not assume that a theological liberal would act dishonestly or carelessly in editing a text. However, a Bible-believer and a theological liberal approach the biblical text with very different viewpoints and assumptions. As textual criticism is not an exact science, there are many times when the evidence is divided and either choice may seem reasonable from a naturalistic perspective. The following words of Hort should make us wary of a text that is compiled by theological liberals. The first impulse in dealing with a variation is usually to lean on Intrinsic Probability, that is, to consider which of two readings makes the best sense, and to decide between them accordingly. The decision may be made either by an immediate and as it were intuitive judgment, or by weighing cautiously various elements which go to make up what is called sense, such as conformity to grammar and congruity to the purport of the rest of the sentence and of the larger context; to which may rightly be added congruity to the usual style of the author and to his matter in other passages. (The New Testament in the Original Greek, the Text Revised by B.F. Westcott and F.J.A. Hort (Cambridge : MacMillan & Co., 1882), p. 20)” Should Evangelicals use a text that may have been based on the “intuitive judgment” of theological liberals and Jesuits? Should Evangelicals use a text with readings made congruous with the “usual style of the author” when the editing theological liberal may not even believe that the author is who is stated to be? As textual criticism requires the exercise of discretion, it is impossible to discern the correct reading without the “mind of Christ”. 1 Corinthians 2:14-16 says, “But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.” The Bible is the word of God. Only his sheep can hear his voice through his word. Our Lord said, “My sheep hear my voice” (John 10:27). Since textual criticism is the art of discerning whether a reading is God’s voice or not, the Church must not delegate this deeply spiritual exercise to theological liberals. Evangelicals ought to be more discerning and reclaim the biblical mandate to be its own custodian of the inspired, infallible and inerrant preserved words of God. Old Testament This book found by Hilkiah became the ancestral copy of all the Hebrew manuscripts that exist today. One could speculate that Hilkiah found other manuscripts in other places over time, but that would be a speculation since the Bible does not say so. The Bible clearly portrays this single copy found in the temple as the sole catalyst for the great spiritual revival during Josiah’s time and the rediscovery of God’s words for subsequent generations. Ezra, a direct descendant of Hilkiah (Ezra 7:1), canonized the Old Testament and transmitted it to future generations. Ezra’s Old Testament was surely based on Hilkiah’s copy found in the temple. The readings of this copy eventually diverged into the various Old Testament streams extant today, such as the Masoretic, Dead Sea Scrolls, Samaritan and LXX. Whether or not Hilkiah or Ezra found other manuscripts besides the one found in the temple during Josiah’s reign, the Bible is clear that the number of manuscripts does not matter as long as God providentially provides the manuscripts for a time of spiritual revival. King Josiah saw the hand of God in preserving this single copy and never doubted its authenticity or integrity. He caused the words of this single copy to be read to the people (2 Kings 23:2). There is a strong parallel between Hilkiah and Desiderius Erasmus, the originator of the Textus Receptus. Both were men of high repute and rank. Both were upright while their contemporaries were apostate. Both caused God’s words to be published after a time of spiritual darkness. Both were catalysts of a great spiritual awakening. The Textus Receptus was to the Reformation what Hilkiah’s discovery was to the revival in Josiah’s days. Modern textual critics need to learn what the Bible says about textual transmission. If God wants his words to be published for a time of spiritual awakening, he can do so through even just one manuscript. Psalms 12:6 The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7 Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. John 21:15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. 16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep. 17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. The scribes and the Pharisees sit in the seat of Moses and have taken over Bible translations in modern times. Beware!

Focus point is deception in the end times The world is full of false teachers. The first thing out of the mouth of Christ in His Sermon on the Mount of Olives was; “take heed lest any man deceive you” which is especially relevant in the end times; even more so when it comes to the second coming of Christ. Elaborate on the great overthrow and the two Christs Matthew 24: And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. There are 2 ways to look at verse 5, many will actually claim to be Christ and second, many will claim to be Christ’s possession. John makes it a point to recognize these fakes in; 1 John 2:18 Little children, it is the last time: (end times) and as ye have heard that antichrist (fake christ) shall come, even now are there many antichrists; (fake christs) whereby we know that it is the last time. 11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. (not flying away in rapture beforehand) 9 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! Verse 9 is widely misunderstood, this is a metaphor. The subject is false teachers, what does a woman having a baby to do with false teachers? The child spoken of here is false doctrine and “giving suck’ is saying those who teach false doctrine about the second coming of our Lord are nursing or keeping alive false doctrine. (Pre trib rapture) 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: Here is another metaphor regarding harvest of crops. Crops are never harvested in the winter; this is saying do not be harvested out of season just as the pre trib rapture claims. Being ignorant of the chronology of the second coming pre trib rapture teachers are telling you to be harvested in the winter instead of waiting until fall. 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. All Christians will go through the great tribulation and this discourse is written to you 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. Further proof this discourse is written to Christians and if the Great Tribulation wasn’t shortened even they would be deceived. Pre trib rapture teachers will never explain this verse in their chronology. 23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. When Christ appears at His second coming, all flesh will be changed in the moment of a twinkle of an eye; 1 Corinthians 15:52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: (7th Trump) for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. So if you can still pinch yourself and feel it you are still in the flesh and by this you will know Christ hasn’t returned yet. This is the meaning of verse 23, if they say to you “lo here is Christ and lo here is Christ”, just use this litmus test. Rapture teachers make the false claim that your flesh will be raptured and you will fly away like a bird. This is totally contrary to the teaching of Christ Himself 24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Here is another reference to the elect who are Christians and guess what? They are still here going through the Great Tribulation. Why would the time be shortened if they were already gone in rapture? 25 Behold, I have told you before. 26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. Repeating the verse that says “lo He is here and lo He is there” 27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles (vultures) be gathered together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: Many in the rapture camp make the claim the words “of those days” is some other time period and not the Great Tribulation…don’t be deceived this is a lie! 30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. This is the one and only second coming of Jesus Christ Ladies and gents this isn’t rocket science but the pre trib rapture teachers will muddy the waters to the point of utter confusion. They will throw scripture after scripture at you hoping to prove a point that is just not there. It can’t be documented period. The case for the pre trib rapture foundation is built on pure supposition and the machinations of men. The average Christian is left confused and the real truth has been obfuscated from them and this is the very definition of an antichrist. John 14? Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.

Although a good case could be made for Judas being the son of perdition, there is not one direct reference to him being so. John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. “While I was with them in the world” could be a reference to the disciples but it could also mean all of those He was with including everybody that had believed upon Him while He was in His carnal body because He said “in the world”. He kept those that God had given Him but only the ones that were truly saved and not one was lost but only the son of perdition. Then, He goes on to say “that the scripture might be fulfilled”. If you look at the literal meaning of the word “perdition” it means a literal destruction or perishing, to utterly destroy. If Judas was fulfilling the scriptures why would he be sentenced to death? Why would our Father sentence Judas to death if he was fulfilling His pre ordained plan of salvation? It doesn’t make any sense. Also, when you look at the other times the word “perdition” is used it denotes the same thing; destruction, ruin and perishing. We have three examples that directly point to satan as being the son of perdition and they are 2 Thessalonians 2:3, Revelation 17:8 and 17:11. Also we know that satan is the only entity that has been sentenced to death for his rebellion against God in Revelation 12:4. I believe the trial is mentioned in; Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them. 7 And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. The chronology in Job 1 jumps around a lot and it has to be rightly divided. With that in mind we can only come to two conclusions; “the son of perdition” in John 17:12 is not literal but figurative if it is actually referring to Judas. Second, Jesus is actually referring to satan because he is really the only entity that has already been sentenced to perish but it hasn’t been carried out until after the GWTJ. In that sense, he is the only one who has been “lost”. To those of you who claim that 2 Thessalonians 2:3 is Judas because of John 17:12, you are sadly mistaken. Further evidence of Judas not being the son of perdition He did not commit suicide by hanging himself; he literally choked on his own grief. His bowels gushed out on the ground because he had help. The so called religious leaders could not allow him to expose them so they sliced him from his neck to his groin and his guts fell out on the ground. He was murdered and not by his own hand. The word “hanged” as it is used here is rare. When looked at in context with Acts 1:18 it is not a literal hanging but a choking on his own grief for what he had done to his Lord. Hanged G # 519 apagchó: to strangle, hang oneself Original Word: ἀπάγχω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: apagchó Phonetic Spelling: (ap-ang'-khom-ahee) Definition: to strangle, hang oneself Usage: I choke, strangle; mid: I strangle or hang myself. There is no doubt in my mind Judas knew the Lord was savior but yet he was influenced by satan to betray Him. Yet nothing has taken our God by surprise and Judas was God’s vessel to accomplish His will. Just as Peter denied our Lord 3 times but was brought back into the flock…was Judas also? The fact that Judas took the silver back and threw it on the floor tells me he was remorseful. No doubt Chiapas was behind his murder which is another clue to Judas’ change of heart As found in Matthew 27:3 according to Dr. Strong Repented G # 3338 metamelomai: to regret, repent-Original Word: μεταμέλομαι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: metamelomai Phonetic Spelling: (met-am-el'-lom-ahee) Definition: to regret, repent Usage: (lit: I change one care or interest for another), I change my mind (generally for the better), repent, regret. We can only speculate what was in Judas’ heart but we know what is in the heart of satan Evidence that Judas didn’t actually hang himself below Matthew 27:3Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, Judas repented Acts 1: 16 Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus. 17 For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry. 18 Now this man purchased a field (potter’s field) with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst asunder in the midst, and all his bowels gushed out. 19 And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood. Verses with the word Perdition Philippians 1:28 And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God. 2 Thessalonians 2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; The man of sin will stand in the Holy place and claim to be god 1 Timothy 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. Hebrews 10:39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. 2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.(reference to the fallen angels) Revelation 17:8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (satan mentioned above and below) Revelation 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. No evidence of perdition found in Judas’ name either “Judas” G# 2469 Iskariótés: Iscariot, surname of Judas and his father Original Word: Ἰσκαριώτης, ου, ὁ Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine Transliteration: Iskariótés Phonetic Spelling: (is-kar-ee-o'-tace) Definition: Iscariot, surname of Judas and his father Usage: Iscariot, surname of Judas. Iscariot.Of Hebrew origin (probably 'iysh and qirya'); inhabitant of Kerioth; Iscariotes (i.e. Keriothite), an epithet of Judas the traitor -- Iscariot. see HEBREW 'iysh see HEBREW qirya' “Perdition” G # 684 apóleia: destruction, loss Original Word: ἀπώλεια, ας, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: apóleia Phonetic Spelling: (ap-o'-li-a) Definition: destruction, loss Usage: destruction, ruin, loss, perishing; eternal ruin. “Perish” G # 622 apollumi: to destroy, destroy utterly Original Word: ἀπόλλυμι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: apollumi Phonetic Spelling: (ap-ol'-loo-mee) Definition: to destroy, destroy utterly Usage: (a) I kill, destroy, (b) I lose, mid: I am perishing (the resultant death being viewed as certain). G # 623 Apolluón: "a destroyer," Apollyon, the angel of the abyss Original Word: Ἀπολλύων, ονος, ὁ Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine Transliteration: Apolluón Phonetic Spelling: (ap-ol-loo'-ohn) Definition: "a destroyer", Apollyon, the angel of the abyss Usage: Apollyon, The Destroying One, a Greek translation of the Hebrew: Abaddon. Apollyon. Active participle of apollumi; a destroyer (i.e. Satan) -- Apollyon. see GREEK apollumi The most telling evidence of course is the word perdition. It is one of satans names, Apollyon the destroyer that corresponds with 2 Thessalonians. Judas is never directly called the son of perdition but satan is. I have counted 33 names roles titles that satan is called. The reason I gave the scriptures with the word perdition in them was for context. The key to understanding is found in the word Perdition itself. We can only speculate what was in Judas’ heart but we know what is in the heart of satan. I believe Judas repented and along with the other evidence we have we can only come to one conclusion as to who the literal son of perdition is. Only one verse could be construed as pointing to Judas as the son of perdition in an indirect way but we have many that point directly to satan as being the son of perdition.

The Fifth Kingdom of Daniel 2 The fall of the King of Babylon in the end times Will the antichrist come from Rome the fourth Kingdom? Daniel 7:1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters Daniel chapter 7 takes up to where chapter 2:44-45 ends. The image that Nebuchadnezzar had seen in a dream is further explained to us. The king of Babylon is a type of antichrist and the book of Daniel is a companion to the book of Revelation. If you will notice there is no mention of any country or government. The control of Jerusalem is the focus. (Those who believe the antichrist will rise up out of the Roman Empire are sadly mistaken Chapter 7 transpired 3 years before chapter 5 at around 429 BC.) What I will focus on is the fifth kingdom of Daniel which is mentioned in Daniel 2:41-43. The focus of all of the prophecy surrounds Jerusalem and who is in control of it. Everybody can agree the fourth kingdom is Rome but that is where modern commentary ends. The prophesy of Daniel didn’t end there, it continues. Daniel 2:41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes, part of potters' clay, and part of iron, the kingdom shall be divided; but there shall be in it of the strength of the iron, forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay. 42 And as the toes of the feet were part of iron, and part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly broken. 43 And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay. Who is presently in control of the Dome of the Rock? In 636 AD the Mohammedans took control of it and it has been trodden under foot sense then. Rome controlled it for 666 years beginning in 31 BC in the battle of Actium when Rome took Jerusalem. The fifth power after Rome is described as the “feet and toes”. Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. Daniel 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. 45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure. (At a time in the end of days all of the earthly kingdoms will be destroyed that are mentioned in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream) (The death of the king of Babylon below) Daniel 5:30 In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. 31 And Darius the Median took the kingdom, being about threescore and two years old. (3 years before chapter 7) (The stone that destroyed the image is Jesus Christ at His second coming) Psalm 118:22 The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner. Matthew 21:42 Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Mark 12:10 And have ye not read this scripture; The stone which the builders rejected is become the head of the corner: (The cornerstone is Jesus Christ hewn without hands. He destroyed the image and the King of Babylon in Daniels time and He will destroy the king of Babylon of the end times which was a type or example of the antichrist.) 2 Thessalonians 2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, (Antichrist) whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, (Jesus Christ our cornerstone will destroy the antichrist with the brightness of his coming) Daniel 7:1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters. (This is the last king of Babylon from Daniels time in 429 BC. This is a continuation from the dream of Nebuchadnezzar in chapter 2:44) 2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea. (Reference to the end times and the multitude of people) 3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another. (Religion-Finance-Education-Politics-hidden powers) 4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. (Enosh) (Revelation 13:4 The same Beasts mentioned in Daniel) 5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. (Deadly wound to the beast system) 6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. (Four powers that rule the earth Zachariah 1:18) 7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. (Supernatural Kings) (Final conquest of the King of Babylon below) Revelation 17:11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. 12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast. (Hour of Temptation) (Fallen Angels satan brings with him when he stands in the holy place and claims to be god.) 13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast. 14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful. 15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues. 16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. Daniel 7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things. (Religious beast from the four horns of power) This is the antichrist the devil 9 I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit, whose garment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like the pure wool: his throne was like the fiery flame, and his wheels as burning fire. 10 A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: (Holy Spirit) thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11 I beheld then because of the voice of the great words which the horn spake: I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame. (The offices of the beast and false prophet will be cast into the lake of fire, God the consuming fire below) Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet (antichrist)that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.21 And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh. Daniel 7:12 As concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet their lives were prolonged for a season and time. (Millennial period) 13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. 14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. 15 I Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. 16 I came near unto one of them that stood by, and asked him the truth of all this. So he told me, and made me know the interpretation of the things. (Angel of the LORD) 17 These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth. (Earthly Kings) 18 But the saints of the most High shall take the kingdom, and possess the kingdom for ever, even for ever and ever. 19 Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet; (Antichrist) 20 And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn (little horn) that had eyes, and a mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. (Mark 13, Luke 21, Mathew 24, the saints stand against antichrist in the hour of temptation) 21 I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; 22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. (GWTJ) 23 Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces. (Still yet future when the antichrist will deceive the world) Verse 23 is not the fourth kingdom of Daniel 2 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. (Supernatural fallen angels that satan brings with him at his appearance) 25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. (3-1/2 years shortened to 5 months) 26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. (Christ destroys it) 27 And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. 28 Hitherto is the end of the matter. As for me Daniel, my cogitations much troubled me, and my countenance changed in me: but I kept the matter in my heart.

There is a time for every purpose under Heaven The term “The Dead” is used 5 times in Revelation 20 with the article “The”. The Greek points this out as being spiritually dead, dead to the truth or dead to salvation. Dead apart from the flesh body. In the final analysis they are mortal spiritual bodies who are liable to death. These were all judged at the JSOC and found wanting. They are subject to death and still mortal. The purpose of the millennium is to give them one last chance at eternal life. Otherwise the millennium would be useless. The fact that it is a prescribed time appointed as a thousand years proves that there is passing of time for those who are still mortal. There can be no other reason. This to me is proof of a loving Father who would go to the ends of the universe for HIS children to redeem them. Of course this doesn’t fit the narrative of the modern Church. They would have you believe that this is it. If you don’t accept Christ as your savior you will be punished for all of eternity. Their intentions are to scare you into heaven by threat of an angry vengeful God who wants to punish you forever if you don’t love Him. You might ask, so what is the reason for Christ dying on the cross if there is a second chance? Can any of us predict how many people sense the beginning of this age have never heard the gospel? Answer; No… not one of us can. The plan of YHVH is complete, nobody will fall through the cracks, God will see to it. The whole concept of eternal punishment and “this is the final chance”, is designed to fill churches and beat you into heaven. The word hell has evolved through the centuries to the misguided version we now have today which is totally contrary to the divine word Sheol. It is the place of departed souls who are hidden from the world of the living. The pit or the grave have nothing to do with eternal punishment, it is a total fabrication and the misguided machinations of men. The Lord for some reason has made this crystal clear to me and I have been chosen to be the hair in your biscuit. That is to say, to the people who teach this so great a lie. Revelation 20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. The LORDS DAY is the beginning of the Millennium 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, Satan bound a thousand years for the entire millennium 3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season When the Millennium is over satan will be released to test the spiritually dead who are still mortal 4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The Zadok will rule and reign with Christ for the Millennium 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. The remainder of souls will not be able to live again until after they are tested by satan for the last time. If they are found worthy they will then be able to proceed to the second resurrection and only then will they be given eternal life These are in their spiritual bodies but they are still mortal. “The rest of the dead” is describing all of those who didn’t take part in the first resurrection. Elaborate on the word resurrection 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. The first resurrection takes place the moment every believer dies in this age. You are resurrected to eternal life at the JSOC. They are the first fruits. The second resurrection takes place after the GWTJ The firstfruits are the Zadok and the GWTJ will be reward for them. 7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, He will then test the still mortal spiritual beings for one last time 8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. Gog and Magog simply means from the east to the west 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them. After the GWTJ God the consuming fire will destroy them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. Tartaroo 11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. The GWTJ 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. The spiritually dead are then judged, this is the GWTJ 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. The sea is the multitude of people who were judged, they are still mortal 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. At this time the concept of death and separation from God will be done away with 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is God the consuming fire who will destroy all souls who were not found in the book of life, This is the second death Resurrection G # 386 anastasis: a standing up, i.e. a resurrection, a raising up, rising When the word “resurrection” is mentioned people conjure up all kinds of images in their mind of people rising up out of their graves like a zombie apocalypse. To break it down, one of the meanings is a literal resurrection from the dead. In other words, the flesh comes back to life after it dies like Lazarus did. It’s the same body, it just came back to life. The second meaning is to “rise” to a higher level or even dimension. To rise up, To rise from one plain of existence to another. The third is a (moral) recovery (of spiritual truth) You are elevated or lifted up No… people are not lying in a hole in the ground waiting to resurrect from the dead at the second coming.

“Hell” Appendix 131 "Hell" is the English rendering of two different Greek words in the New Testament. The English word is from the Anglo-Saxon hel, Genitive Case helle = a hidden place, from the Anglo-Saxon helan = to hide. It is in the New Testament used as the translation of two Greek words:— I. Gehenna. Greek geenna. This is the transliteration of the Hebrew Gai' Hinnom, that is to say, the Valley of Hinnom or "the Valley" of [the sons of] Hinnom, where were the fires through which children were passed in the worship of Moloch. In the Old Testament Tophet was the Hebrew word used, because it was a place in this valley. In our Lord's day the idolatry had ceased, but the fires were still continually burning there for the destruction of the refuse of Jerusalem. Hence, geenna was used for the fires of destruction associated with the judgment of God. Sometimes, "geenna of fire". See 2Kings 23:10. Isaiah 30:33. Jeremiah 7:31, 32; 19:11-14. Geenna occurs 12 times, and is always rendered "hell", namely, Matthew 5:22, 29, 30; 10:28; 18:9; 23:15, 33. Mark 9:43, 45, 47. Luke 12:5. James 3:6. II. Hades. Greek hades, from a (privative) and idein, to see (Appendix 133. I. i); used by the Greeks for the unseen world. The meaning which the Greeks put upon it does not concern us; nor have we anything to do with the imaginations of the heathen, or the traditions of Jews or Romanists, or the teachings of demons or evil spirits, or of any who still cling to them. The Holy Spirit has used it as one of the "words pertaining to the earth", and in so doing has "purified" it, "as silver tried in a furnace" (see notes on Psalm 12:6). From this we learn that His own words "are pure", but words belonging to this earth have to be "purified". The Old Testament is the fountain-head of the Hebrew language. It has no literature behind it. But the case is entirely different with the Greek language. The Hebrew Sheol is a word Divine in its origin and usage. The Greek Hades is human in its origin and comes down to us laden with centuries of development, in which it has acquired new senses, meanings, and usages. Seeing that the Holy Spirit has used it in Acts 2:27, 31 as His own equivalent of Sheol in Psalm 16:10, He has settled, once for all, the sense in which we are to understand it. The meaning He has given to Sheol in Psalm 16:10 is the one meaning we are to give it wherever it occurs in the New Testament, whether we transliterate it or translate it. We have no liberty to do otherwise, and must discard everything outside the Word of God Psalms 16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. The word occurs eleven times (Matthew 11:23; 16:18. Luke 10:15; 16:23. Acts 2:27, 31. 1Corinthians 15:55. Revelation 1:18; 6:8; 20:13, 14); and is rendered "hell" in every passage except one, where it is rendered "grave" (1Corinthians 15:55, margin "hell"). In the Revised Version the word is always transliterated "Hades", except in 1Corinthians 15:55 (where "death" is substituted because of the reading, in all the texts, of thanate for hade), and in the American Revised Version also. As Hades is the Divine Scriptural equivalent of Sheol, further light may be gained from Appendix 35, and a reference to the 65 passages there given. It may be well to note that while "Hades" is rendered "hell" in the New Testament (except once, where the rendering "the grave" could not be avoided), Sheol, its Hebrew equivalent, occurs 65 times, and is rendered "the grave" 31 times (or 54%); "hell" 31 times (4 times with margin "the grave", reducing it to 41.5%); and "pit" only 3 times (or 4.5%). "The grave", therefore, is obviously the best rendering, meaning the state of death (German sterbend, for which we have no English equivalent); not the act of dying, as an examination of all the occurrences of both words will show. 1. The rendering "pit" so evidently means "the grave" that it may at once be substituted for it (Numbers 16:30, 33. Job 17:16). 2. The rendering "the grave" (not "a grave", which is Hebrew keber, or bor) exactly expresses the meaning of both Sheol and Hades. For, as to direction, it is always down: as to place, it is in the earth: as to relation, it is always in contrast with the state of the living (Deuteronomy 32:22-25 and 1Samuel 2:6-8); as to association, it is connected with mourning (Genesis 37:34, 35), sorrow (Genesis 42:38. 2Samuel 22:6. Psalm 18:5; 116:3), fright and terror (Numbers 16:27, 34), mourning (Isaiah 38:3, 10, 17, 18), silence (Psalm 6:5; 31:17. Ecclesiastes 9:10), no knowledge (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6, 10), punishment (Numbers 16:29, 34. 1Kings 2:6, 9. Job 24:19. Psalm 9:17 (Revised Version = re-turned)), corruption (Psalm 16:10. Acts 2:27, 31); as to duration, resurrection is the only exit from it (Psalm 16:11. Acts 2:27, 31; 13:33-37. 1Corinthians 15:55. Revelation 1:18; 20:5, 13, 14). III. Tartaroo (occurs only in 2Peter 2:4) = to thrust down to Tartarus, Tartarus being a Greek word, not used elsewhere, or at all in the Septuagint. Homer describes it as subterranean (compare Deuteronomy 32:22, which may refer to this). The Homeric Tartarus is the prison of the Titans, or giants (compare Hebrew Rephaim, Appendix 25), who rebelled against Zeus. Sheol Appendix 35 The first occurrence of this word is in Genesis 37:35, where it is rendered "grave". It occurs sixty-five times in the Hebrew of the Old Testament; and only by studying each passage by itself can the student hope to gather the Biblical usage of the word. All heathen or traditional usages are not only worthless, but mischievous. The following are all the passages where the word "Sheol" occurs, with the rendering in each passage indicated thus: 1 = grave, 2 = pit, 3 = hell. ____________________________ For more information on this subject in the New Testament, see Appendix 131; "The Synonymous Words for Hell".

As meaning "THE grave," it is to be distinguished from keber, A grave, or, burying-place (from kabar, to bury, first occurrence Genesis 23:4): and bor, a pit, generally hewn in the rock, hence used of a cistern (Genesis 37:20) or a dungeon, etc., when dry. (See note on the word "well" ¹ in Genesis 21:19.) ____________________________ ¹ Hebrew beer, a well (dug): not 'ayin, a spring or fountain; or bor, a cistern (hewn). Note brought forward from Genesis 21:19. The dead Appendix 139 The word nekros (Noun and Adjective) has different meanings, according as it is used in different connections:— 1. With the Article (hoi nekroi) it denotes dead bodies, or corpses or carcasses in the grave, apart from the personality they once had. This is the Old Testament idiom also. See Septuagint, Genesis 23:3, 4, 6, 8. Deuteronomy 18:11; 28:26. Jeremiah 7:33; 9:22; 19:7. Ezekiel 37:9. See notes on Matthew 22:31. 1Corinthians 15:35. 2. Without the Article (nekroi) it denotes the persons who were once alive, but who are now alive no longer: that is to say, dead persons as distinct from dead bodies. Compare Deuteronomy 14:1. Judges 4:22. Lamentations 3:6. And see notes on Matthew 22:32. Acts 26:23. 1Corinthians 15:12, 12, 13, 15, 16. Hebrews 13:20, etc. 3. With a Preposition, but without the Article, which may be latent in the Preposition (ek nekron), it denotes out from among dead people. See notes on Mark 9:9, 10. Luke 16:30, 31. John 20:9. Acts 10:41. Romans 6:13; 10:7, 9; 11:15. 1Corinthians 15:12-, 20. Hebrews 11:19. 4. With a Preposition, and with the Article; for example 'ek ton nekron, it denotes emphatically out from among the dead bodies, or corpses. Compare Ephesians 5:14. Colossians 1:18; 2:12. 5. The bearing of this on 1Peter 4:6 will be better seen if we note that we have nekroi (See No. 2, above), meaning people who were then dead, but who had had the Gospel preached (Appendix 121. 4) to them while they were alive; and this is confirmed by the Greek Particle, men (=although) in the next clause, which is ignored both by the Authorized Version and Revised Version. The verse reads thus: "For to this end to those who are (now) dead was the Gospel preached, that though they might be judged in the flesh, according to [the will of] men,¹ yet they might live [again, in resurrection], according to [the will of] God, as regards [the] spirit"; that is to say, in spiritual bodies, spoken of in 1Corinthians 15:44, 45. To this end—to give those to whom the apostle wrote this hope—the Gospel was preached to them, as described in 1Peter 1:12, 25. The hope of glory was thus set over against their sufferings (1Peter 1:11; 4:13). ____________________________ ¹ That this is the meaning may be seen from the use of kata (Ap. 104. x. 2). Rom. 8:27; 15:5. 1Cor. 12:8; 15:32; 2Cor. 11:17. Gal. 1:4, 11. Eph. 1:5, 9, 11, 19; 2:2. Col. 2:8. 1Pet. 4:14, 19. 1John 5:14.

The righteous will see the destruction of the wicked The punishment is severe and final. Verse 20 is a perfect description of the Second Death The righteous will be present and aware of the punishment The Acrostic of Psalms 37 by Dr. E.W. Bullinger Psalm 37. In this Psalm the series is perfect and complete. Every letter has two verses of lines each, except three: verses 7 (, Daleth= D), 20 (, Kaph= K), and 34 (, Koph= K). This describes the theme of Psalms 37. The wicked will be punished with the second death Psalms 37:1 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. 2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. 3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. 5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. 6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. 7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. 8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil. 9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. 11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. 12 The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. 13 The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. 14 The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. 15 Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken. 16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked. 17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous. 18 The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. 19 They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. 20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away. 21 The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. 22 For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. 23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. 24 Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand. 25 I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. 26 He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed. 27 Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. 28 For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. 29 The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever. 30 The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. 31 The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide. 32 The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. 33 The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged. 34 Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. 35 I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. 36 Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found. 37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace. 38 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off. 39 But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble. 40 And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

The myth of eternal punishment There are 3 principal words that the English word “hell ‘is transliterated from, you don’t have any other words used to describe hell. Number one is the Hebrew word Sheol, number two is Gehenna and number three is Hades. “Hell” G # 1067Gehenna, a valley W. and South of Jer., also a symbolic name for the final place of punishment of the ungodly Original Word: γέεννα, ης, ἡ Transliteration: geenna Phonetic Spelling: (gheh'-en-nah) Definition: Gehenna, a valley west and South of Jerusalem: Gehenna, and originally the name of a valley or cavity near Jerusalem, a place underneath the earth, a figurative place of punishment for evil. gehenna, hell.Of Hebrew origin (gay' and Hinnom); valley of (the son of) Hinnom; ge-henna (or Ge-Hinnom), a valley of Jerusalem, used (figuratively) as a name for the place (or state) of everlasting punishment -- hell. see HEBREW gay'see HEBREW Hinnom As used in Luke 16 “Hell” G # 86 hadés: Hades, the abode of departed spirits Original Word: ᾍδης, ου, ὁ Part of Speech: Noun, MasculineTransliteration: hadés Phonetic Spelling: (hah'-dace) Definition: Hades, the abode of departed spirits Usage: Hades, the unseen world. grave, hell. From a (as negative particle) and eido; properly, unseen, i.e. "Hades" or the place (state) of departed souls -- grave, hell. see GREEK a see GREEK eido “Hell” H # 7585 sheol: underworld (place to which people descend at death) Original Word: שְׁאוֹל Part of Speech: Noun Feminine Transliteration: sheol Phonetic Spelling: (sheh-ole') Definition: underworld (place to which people descend at death) grave, hell, pitOr shol {sheh-ole'}; from sha'al; Hades or the world of the dead (as if a subterranean retreat), including its accessories and inmates -- grave, hell, pit. see HEBREW sha'al Etymology of the word Hell in Hebrew H # 7592 prime root shaal: to ask, inquire Original Word: שָׁאַלPart of Speech: Verb Transliteration: shaal Phonetic Spelling: (shaw-al') Definition: to ask, inquire ask counsel, on, beg, borrow, lay to charge, consult, demand, desire, Or shael {shaw-ale'}; a primitive root; to inquire; by implication, to request; by extension, to demand -- ask (counsel, on), beg, borrow, lay to charge, consult, demand, desire, X earnestly, enquire, + greet, obtain leave, lend, pray, request, require, + salute, X straitly, X surely, wish. Glaring contradictions in the eternal punishment doctrine. Does fire have any effect on the spirit body? Answer; No The second death is a complete contradiction of eternal punishment, you can’t have both. Death is final whether it be the flesh or the spirit, death is forever and not the punishment or sentence itself. How can you be placed in hell without first being judged at the GWTJ which does not take place until after the Millennium? How on earth do you jump from Gehenna a garbage pit outside of Jerusalem or Hades which is a state of mind to a lake of fire? The same goes for the Hebrew word Sheol. All three of these examples are the only ones we have to determine the meaning of the English word “hell”. Nowhere in God’s word does it say that hell is a lake of fire. You can only approach this subject from the totality of scripture. Without it your assumptions will be erroneous. In my mind the whole concept of eternal punishment has been created in the mind of some lofty scripture butcher to get people into their Church. Every time the word hell is used it would better be rendered “torment”. God is the lake of fire as described in Hebrews 12:29. He is the only one who can actually consume your soul and destroy it. Fire has no effect on a spirit body. Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. The above verse cannot coexist with the eternal punishment doctrine. For it to exist there has to be awareness of it and this is a complete contradiction of Revelation 21:4. If the flesh body were placed in fire it would only take minutes for it to be completely consumed. Flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom neither does corruption put on incorruption. This concept can only be found in the Greek words; nekros, hoi nekroi, ek nekron and 'ek ton nekron. If you don’t understand these Greek words you will be lost in your understanding of death hell and the grave. With that in mind, the verses below will be clearly understood Revelation 19:20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. (The office the beast and false prophet will be consumed by God the consuming fire of Hebrews 12:29.) Death hell and the grave will also be consumed by God Almighty at the end of the millennium after the GWTJ. The GWTJ at the end of the millennium; Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Consumed by God almighty after the GWTJ Punished for Eternity is the second death-The punishment itself is forever. Once the punishment is carried out the consequences will be forever. Not the person receiving the punishment forever. You can only kill someone’s soul once. It’s really just that simple. The true definition is; you’re gone forever. Blotted out, never to be remembered; as if you never existed. Consumed by YHVH the Consuming Fire. Eternally Punished means to be punished forever-ongoing punishment This is the misguided modern Church version of Hell. Everybody floating on clouds playing harps and over in the distance is a big lake of fire with many of your own relatives burning in it, screaming bloody &*^%$ help me I’m burning. I think most people picture hell as the mouth of a volcano where people are swimming around in hot, fiery molten lava. This is as bad as Santa and the easter bunny. Talk about not getting it? It’s an understatement. The church has used this false version of hell to beat people into heaven for centuries. But in fact in my own experience it has turned many unsaved people away from God. It is by far one of the worst interpretation errors in modern Christianity. Hell is being described as a “state of mind” or torment for your own failure in the NT and the OT. With failure can bring torment, gnashing of teeth, being cast into outer darkness; all symptoms of failure and knowledge of it. Other symptoms of this are; a state of degradation or decay because you know you missed the mark and did not receive eternal life. You’re in a spirit body but you’re still mortal and aware of it. You are in a state of decay. All of the above symptoms are describing what happens after people die who are unsaved. All saved and unsaved people enter paradise whether the left or the right side. These above will go to the left side as goats and then separated from the sheep that go to the right side of the gulf. All are judged at the JSOC the moment they die. The torment described in Luke 16 by the rich man was a symptom of the JSOC and not the GWTJ. The GWTJ will not happen until 1000 years later. Only then will people be sentenced to the second death. This to me is further proof that the description of hell in Luke 16 is only a state of mind being described and not a literal location. How could the rich man go to hell if he hadn’t been sentenced yet? The GWTJ is not until a thousand years later but the text says he woke up in hell. Better said; torment. He woke up in torment not a lake of fire. Only after the GWTJ will people be sentenced to the second death The English word Hell has morphed into this creepy idea of a place where bad people are sent the moment they die. The way in which it’s characterized is misleading. It is very important to know the difference between a location and a state of mind. There is only one place people go after they die…Paradise; The left or right side of the gulf. If you believe hell is a location then show me the scripture. You will be tormented by your decision not to follow Jesus. You will be rewarded if you do. Can you imagine if you died and woke up in paradise and you were with the goats on the left side of the great gulf? At that moment you would realize you had missed a chance at immortality. It would be hell to pay for a thousand years. The absolute grief and torment you would feel would cast you into outer darkness where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. All caused by the realization of your failure and bad decisions, not from swimming in a lake of hot molten lava. The left side of the great gulf in Philippians 1:23 and Luke 26 would best describe the common understanding of where hell is. But it doesn’t have a lake of fire. It’s a place where the unsaved are. All who are there are tormented by their failure. The right side of the great gulf would best describe Heaven or Paradise where there is rejoicing. The verse below is the only verse you need to describe eternal life and the second death John 3:16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Perish G#622 apollumi: to destroy, destroy utterly Original Word: ἀπόλλυμι Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: apollumi Phonetic Spelling: (ap-ol'-loo-mee) Definition: to destroy, destroy utterly Usage: (a) I kill, destroy, (b) I lose, mid: I am perishing (the resultant death being viewed as certain). destroy, die, lose, mar, perish. From apo and the base of olethros; to destroy fully (reflexively, to perish, or lose), literally or figuratively -- destroy, die, lose, mar, perish. see GREEK apo GREEK olethros (Satan is called the destroyer) Revelation 9:11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. Second death Revelation 2:11He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. Revelation 20:6Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. Revelation 20:14And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Revelation 21:8But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. You’ve only got two choices for the word “hell” as it’s used here; Gehenna or Hades. Both of these Greek words are figurative, not literal. Hell is not literally a garbage pit outside of Jerusalem or a cave of hot molten lava at the center of the earth. It is the left side of the gulf where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth for the realization of failure. Torment and cast into outer darkness are descriptions of the realization of failure as well. When you understand this, Luke 16 will make better sense to you. 22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; >The word “buried” (above) is # 6912 in Hebrew and 2290 in Greek and simply means to “enter” or an event, i.e. burial. Not in the literal sense “with dirt” You have to think in the spirit. Is there dirt in heaven? Not in the literal sense. >How could Lazarus see Abraham if he was literally “buried” with dirt? They are both in Heaven, or “paradise” as Jesus said in Luke23:43. “This day you will be in paradise”. 23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. (This should be obvious; hell in the modern false interpretation does not exist until after the GWTJ) The real hell which is an oxymoron is the second death which is not mentioned in Luke 16. 24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. 25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. 26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Philipians 1:23 For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better: Hell is mentioned 31 times in the OT and 23 in the NT The figurative translation and not a transliteration should be rendered; Torment, degradation or decay Luke 16 uses the word torment in conjunction with the word hell. Both mean the same. Deuteronomy 32:22For a fire is kindled in mine anger, and shall burn unto the lowest hell, and shall consume the earth with her increase, and set on fire the foundations of the mountains. 2 Samuel 22:6The sorrows of hell compassed me about; the snares of death prevented me; Job 11:8It is as high as heaven; what canst thou do? deeper than hell; what canst thou know? Job 26:6Hell is naked before him, and destruction hath no covering. Psalm 9:17The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God. Psalm 16:10For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Psalm 18:5The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. Psalm 55:15Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them. Psalm 86:13For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell. Psalm 116:3The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

Isaiah 14:15Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. Isaiah 28:15Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Isaiah 28:18And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it. Isaiah 57:9And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase thyself even unto hell. Ezekiel 31:16I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. Ezekiel 31:17They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.

Ezekiel 32:27And they shall not lie with the mighty that are fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though they were the terror of the mighty in the land of the living. Amos 9:2Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down: Jonah 2:2And said, I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and thou heardest my voice. Habakkuk 2:5Yea also, because he transgresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people: New Testament Matthew 5:22But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire. Matthew 5:29And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 5:30And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. Matthew 10:28And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. Matthew 11:23And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

Matthew 18:9And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire. Many simple minded Christians believe the above verse to be literal. In reality this verse is speaking of the body of Christ in a figurative sense. The concept of hell is the same. Matthew 23:15Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. Matthew 23:33Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

Luke 12:5But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. Luke 16:23And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. Acts 2:27Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. Acts 2:31He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption. James 3:6And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell. 2 Peter 2:4For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; (Tartroo) Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Revelation 6:8And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Revelation 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

Two Edged Sword A Refiners Fire If you as a Christian are not making waves everywhere you go you have lost your saltiness It all starts with the Word of God and everything else is secondary. It is the number one duty of every pastor. Teach the word in its purest form and everything else will fall into place. Matthew 10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. (To draw out the goats from the sheep) 35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. 36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me. The confrontational nature of Christ Matthew 21:12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, John 2:14 And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: John 2:15 And when he had made a scourge of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables; The Word is a Sword, it has a way of separating the goats and the sheep Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Revelation 1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. Psalm 149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand; Revelation 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords. “Sword” G # 4685 The Word is a Sword spaó: to draw (a sword) Original Word: σπάω Part of Speech: Verb Transliteration: spaó Phonetic Spelling: (spah'-o) Definition: to draw (a sword) Usage: I draw (as a sword), pull. draw out. A primary verb; to draw -- draw (out). The Word has a way of drawing out the goats from the sheep and especially in the end times. The Word is a Sword that divides and draws out the true and the fake. Christ is the living Word. Psalm 40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, Hebrews 10:7 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. Mark 13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. Malachi 3:1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the LORD, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the LORD of hosts. But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness. ... The Holy Spirit and His attributes Acts 13:6 And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: 7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God. 8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. 10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand. The duel nature of Jesus Christ Isaiah 11:4 But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. Zephaniah 2:3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD's anger. Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 21:5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. 2 Corinthians 10:1 Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you: Galatians 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Ephesians 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Colossians 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; 1 Timothy 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 2 Timothy 2:25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; Titus 3:2 To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, shewing all meekness unto all men. 1 Peter 3:4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear: Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, 1 Corinthians 13:1 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. 2 Timothy 4:1 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. 5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry. 6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. 7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: These verses should bring a new meaning to WWJD…Remember that cliché? Many fail to look at the two sides of our LORD and His character traits. As Christians we are to discern without Judgment because Judgment is His and His alone. There is a fine line between meekness, humility and righteous indignation.

The Lord will have them all in derision Psalms 82 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods. (Earthly elohiem judges) 2 How long will ye judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah. (Addressed to earthly Judges who are on the take) 3 Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice to the afflicted and needy. 4 Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked. 5 They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out of course. (Because of unrighteous judges) 6 I have said, Ye are gods; (Earthly elohiem) and all of you are children of the most High. 7 But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes. (Because you have become corrupt Judges) 8 Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit all nations. (Deliver us from corrupt judges) John 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God. 34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods? (Gods possession) Are you a god? or are you GOD’s possession? 35 If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; (Again a reference to Gods ownership of all souls) 36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? 37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. 38 But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. 39 Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand, The implication being; we are GOD’S possession and because of that we ought to judge righteously if we are appointed as judges. But as Christians we are not to judge one another or cast stones either. Judges are not above the Law. There is only one Righteous Judge that has actually been appointed by YHVH and that is Jesus Christ. Psalms 84 is speaking to judges who are in the capacity of an appointed judge in civil or criminal proceedings. This is not directed at Christians who are not appointed to an official capacity. Not all Christians are judges and all judges are not Christians. The essence of Christ’s teaching in John 10 is; Jesus Christ is God’s possession and so are we. We are not little gods or little judges running around judging everybody. Isaiah 26:2 Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in. Zachariah 8:16 These are the things that ye shall do; Speak ye every man the truth to his neighbour; execute the judgment of truth and peace in your gates: 17 And let none of you imagine evil in your hearts against his neighbour; and love no false oath: for all these are things that I hate, saith the LORD Amos 5:15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: Proverbs3:27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it. Ecclesiastes 5:8 If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they. Derision Psalm 2:4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision. Psalm 44:13Thou makest us a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and a derision to them that are round about us. Psalm 59:8 But thou, O LORD, shalt laugh at them; thou shalt have all the heathen in derision. Psalm 79:4 We are become a reproach to our neighbours, a scorn and derision to them that are round about us.

Why is Christianity in decline? Why is America in decline? Here is your answer. If we are not willing to take the necessary steps prescribed by YHVH to remedy our problems and our idol worship, YHVH will continue HIS judgments on America and the entire world. How does America remedy all of her problems? Jeremiah, Deuteronomy and Exodus do an excellent job of explaining how and it’s high time the church take heed. Get the Ishtar bunny, santa clause, rapture, the false portrayals of death hell and the grave, using the Gregorian calendar as a time piece out of the Church. Tear down the false church, expel its leaders and start completely over. Even our Bible translations have been contaminated and the leaders are too ignorant to realize they’ve been changed. Problem; Jeremiah 44:18 But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been consumed by the sword and by the famine. (A perfect description of America and the world) Solution; Exodus 34:13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves: Deuteronomy 7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire. Deuteronomy 12:3 And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and burn their groves with fire; and ye shall hew down the graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that place. When the foundations be destroyed what can the righteous do? There it is. Are you as a leader willing to do what it takes to get right with YHVH? If not, you are part of the problem and not the solution. Contaminated Educational institutions and Churches are teaching false and misleading doctrine therefore starving the sheep of the true word of God; Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: Queen of heaven Jeremiah 7:18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. (Cakes are symbolic of the modern day Ishtar eggs) Notice the words “cakes” and “queen of heaven” used by Jeremiah. All of these words are referring to the goddess of fertility “Ishtar”. Easter eggs are the modern day “cakes” spoken of here. They color easter eggs and then hide them for the children to find and all are symbolic gestures of the old pagan practices to the goddess of fertility “Ishtar”. Jeremiah 44:17 But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth, to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her, as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were well, and saw no evil. Jeremiah 44:19 And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? Jeremiah 44:25 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, saying; Ye and your wives have both spoken with your mouths, and fulfilled with your hand, saying, We will surely perform our vows that we have vowed, to burn incense to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her: ye will surely accomplish your vows, and surely perform your vows. “Grove” Strong’s H # 842 Asherah: a Phoenician goddess, also an image of the same Original Word: אֲשֵׁרָה Part of Speech: Proper Name Feminine Transliteration: Asherah Phonetic Spelling: (ash-ay-raw') Short Definition: Asherim Or masheyrah {ash-ay-raw'}; from 'ashar; happy; Asherah (or Astarte) a Phoenician goddess; also an image of the same -- grove. Compare Ashtoreth. see HEBREW 'ashar see HEBREW Ashtoreth Isaiah 1:2 When ye come to appear before me, who hath required this at your hand, to tread my courts? 13 Bring no more vain oblations; incense is an abomination unto me; the new moons and sabbaths, the calling of assemblies, I cannot away with; it is iniquity, even the solemn meeting. 14 Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them. 15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea, when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood. 16 Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil; “Grove” Mentioned over 40 times in the OT Deuteronomy 16:21 Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the altar of the LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee. Judges 3:7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and forgat the LORD their God, and served Baalim and the groves. Judges 6:25 And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Take thy father's young bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that is by it: Judges 6:28 And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was cast down, and the grove was cut down that was by it, and the second bullock was offered upon the altar that was built. Judges 6:30 Then the men of the city said unto Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die: because he hath cast down the altar of Baal, and because he hath cut down the grove that was by it. 1 Kings 14:15 For the LORD shall smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the LORD to anger. 1 Kings 14:23 For they also built them high places, and images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree. 1 Kings 15:13 And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron. 1 Kings 16:33 And Ahab made a grove; and Ahab did more to provoke the LORD God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him. 1 Kings 18:19 Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table. 2 Kings 13:6 Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.) 2 Kings 17:10 And they set them up images and groves in every high hill, and under every green tree: 2 Kings 17:16 And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. 2 Kings 18:4 He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan. 2 Kings 21:3 For he built up again the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he reared up altars for Baal, and made a grove, as did Ahab king of Israel; and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. 2 Kings 21:7 And he set a graven image of the grove that he had made in the house, of which the LORD said to David, and to Solomon his son, In this house, and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all tribes of Israel, will I put my name for ever: 2 Kings 23:4 And the king commanded Hilkiah the high priest, and the priests of the second order, and the keepers of the door, to bring forth out of the temple of the LORD all the vessels that were made for Baal, and for the grove, and for all the host of heaven: and he burned them without Jerusalem in the fields of Kidron, and carried the ashes of them unto Bethel. 2 Kings 23:6 And he brought out the grove from the house of the LORD, without Jerusalem, unto the brook Kidron, and burned it at the brook Kidron, and stamped it small to powder, and cast the powder thereof upon the graves of the children of the people. 2 Kings 23:7 And he brake down the houses of the sodomites, that were by the house of the LORD, where the women wove hangings for the grove. 2 Kings 23:14 And he brake in pieces the images, and cut down the groves, and filled their places with the bones of men. Jeremiah 17:2 Whilst their children remember their altars and their groves by the green trees upon the high hills. Ashtaroth Joshua 9:10 And all that he did to the two kings of the Amorites, that were beyond Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon, and to Og king of Bashan, which was at Ashtaroth Joshua 12:4 And the coast of Og king of Bashan, which was of the remnant of the giants, that dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei, Joshua 13:12 All the kingdom of Og in Bashan, which reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei, who remained of the remnant of the giants: for these did Moses smite, and cast them out. Joshua 13:31 And half Gilead, and Ashtaroth, and Edrei, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were pertaining unto the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even to the one half of the children of Machir by their families. Judges 2:13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth. Judges 10:6 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim, and Ashtaroth, and the gods of Syria, and the gods of Zidon, and the gods of Moab, and the gods of the children of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines, and forsook the LORD, and served not him. 1 Samuel 7:3 And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines. 1 Samuel 7:4 Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and served the LORD only. 1 Samuel 12:10 And they cried unto the LORD, and said, We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD, and have served Baalim and Ashtaroth: but now deliver us out of the hand of our enemies, and we will serve thee. 1 Samuel 31:10 And they put his armour in the house of Ashtaroth: and they fastened his body to the wall of Bethshan. 1 Chronicles 6:71 Unto the sons of Gershom were given out of the family of the half tribe of Manasseh, Golan in Bashan with her suburbs, and Ashtaroth with her suburbs: THE DATES OF PASSOVER AS DIRECTED BY GOD HIMSELF Exodus 12 And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house: ...

Ezra 6:19 And the children of the captivity kept the passover upon the fourteenth day of the first month. Ezekiel 45:21 In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. Matthew 26:2 Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified. 1 Corinthians 5:7Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: LIE Passover falls on the first Sunday after the full moon directly after the spring equinox.. TRUTH Passover occurs 14 days after the spring equinox on roughly April 3rd. (Spring Equinox is roughly March 20th) March 20th is the countdown to Passover. 14 days from March 20th is April 3rd. Nisan is the first month on the Hebrew calendar and Nisan the 1st is the equivalent to March 20th on the Gregorian calendar. The formula is simple, just count 14 days from the Vernal Equinox and you have Passover. Nisan the 1st is the Vernal Equinox on the Hebrew calendar and March 20th is the Vernal Equinox on the Gregorian calendar. Do not in any way use the moon in this calculation because God did not include the moon in His instructions for the date of the Passover. Read the verses I provide and you will not find the moon mentioned anywhere. You then have to ask yourself; so why does modern Christianity and the even the Jews use the moon to calculate the date of Passover? I don’t know why but the instructions couldn’t be any clearer. TRUTH The moon is a measurement of time for the children of satan, but the sun is a measurement of time for the children of GOD. We are children of Light. Here are the verses to explain why we are children of light and how we as Christians are to measure time and its passing; 1 Thessalonians 5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: The time it takes for the earth to revolve around the sun is how the length of a day was originally established. The moon has nothing to do with the length of a day or a year. We as Christians are to use the Sun as our timepiece. LIE There are 3 days between Friday and Sunday. How on earth do you get 3 days and 3 nights from Friday to Sunday? TRUTH Jesus was crucified on a Wednesday and rose from the dead on Sunday sometime in the early morning hours probably shortly after midnight Saturday. There were two Sabbaths during the week of His crucifixion. One was a high Sabbath and the other a regular Sabbath. Easter Sunday is touted as one of the most important religious holidays of Christianity, but Easter was not taught by Christ and his apostles, or anywhere else in The Word of God. Easter is found only once in the KJV of the Bible, in (Acts 12:4) and it was intentionally mistranslated from the Greek word “pascha”, which should have been translated Passover. It was correctly translated “Passover” in 28 other locations in the KJV version of the New Testament. Easter was not celebrated as a Christian holiday until after the "Catholic Council of Nicaea" was convened in 325 AD. This is just one more tradition of man that has nothing to do with real Christianity. Before the time of Christ, Ishtar was a Pagan holiday and it was celebrated for hundreds of years before the birth of Jesus Christ. Ishtar was a false religious celebration to the Pagan "queen of heaven” the mother of life, the goddess Ishtar, the goddess of fertility. Jesus Christ was crucified at the exact time the Passover lambs were being slaughtered for the Passover meal on the day proceeding the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the fourth day of the week, before sundown. After sundown they ate the Passover meal. The next day was the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a "high day," a special Holy Day Sabbath and it was the fifth day of the week. He resurrected on the third day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, on the seventh day Sabbath before sundown. He was in the grave (the heart of the earth) for three days and three nights, as he had predicted to his disciples in Matthew 12:40. The early pagans were engaged in grove worship (orgies). During this time they got up early in the morning at the crack of dawn and worshiped the sun. There were giant phallic symbols displayed everywhere and even in the House of God. Can you imagine the people of God worshiping the anatomy of a man’s sexual organs while in Church? The scholar of scholars Dr. E.W.Bullinger is calling March 21st the first day of Nisan. N.A.S.A. calculates the vernal equinox would have been at 6:47 AM on March 20th, 4 BC. The sun rises at approximately 5:44 AM in Jerusalem near the Vernal Equinox, and Hebrew days begin at sundown, meaning that the previous day was still active until sundown March 20th, at which point began the 1st of Nisan, which continued until sundown March 21st. Dr Bullinger's calculations seem to be correct because Hebrew days don't begin until sundown. Since the Vernal Equinox occurs on or about March 20 pretty consistently, it would seem that the true Hebrew calendar automatically has 365 days, rather than 360, in a year. The Vernal Equinox usually occurs on March 20, but happens on March 21 according to the Gregorian calendar in some years depending on the cycles of the moon. THE FOLOWING IS TAKEN DIRECTLY FROM THE Companion Bible by Dr. EW Bullinger; That the first day of each of the three feasts. Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles, was " a holy convocation", a "sabbath" on which no servile work was to be done. See Leviticus 23:7, 24, 35. Compare Exodus 12:16. "That sabbath" and the "high day" of John 19:31, was the "holy convocation", the first day of the feast, which quite overshadowed the ordinary weekly sabbath. It was called by the Jews Yom tov = (Good day), and this is the greeting on that day in all Jewish tradition up to the present time. This great sabbath, having been mistaken from the earliest times for the weekly sabbath, has led to all the confusion. 1. The "high day" of John 19:31 was the first day of the feast. 2. The "first day of the feast" was on the 15th day of Nisan. 3. The 15th day of Nisan, commenced at sunset on what we should call the 14th. 4. "Six days before the passover" (John 12:1) takes us back to the 9th day of Nisan. 5. "After two days is the passover" (Matthew 26:2. Mark 14:1) takes us to the 13th day of Nisan. 6. "The first day of the week", the day of the resurrection (Matthew 28:1, etc.), was from our Saturday sunset to our Sunday sunset. This fixes the days of the week, just as the above fix the days of the month, for: 7. Reckoning back from this, "three days and three nights" (Matthew 12:40), we arrive at the day of the burial, which must have been before sunset, on the 14th of Nisan; that is to say, before our Wednesday sunset. 8. This makes the sixth day before the passover (the 9th day of Nisan) to be our Thursday sunset to Friday sunset. Therefore Wednesday, Nisan 14th (commencing on the Tuesday at sunset), was "the preparation day", on which the crucifixion took place: for all four Gospels definitely say that this was the day on which the Lord was buried (before our Wednesday sunset), "because it was the preparation day, the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the Sabbath day, "for that Sabbath day was a high day", and, therefore, not the ordinary seventh day, or weekly Sabbath. See John 19:31. 9. It follows, therefore, that the Lord being crucified on "the preparation day" could not have eaten of the Passover lamb, which was not slain until the evening of the 14th of Nisan (that is to say, afternoon). On that day the daily sacrifice was killed at the 6th hour (noon) and offered about the 7th hour (1 p.m.). The killing of the Passover lambs began directly afterwards. Thus it is clear, that if the killing of the Passover lambs did not commence until about four hours after our Lord had been hanging upon the Cross, and would not have been concluded at the ninth hour (3 p.m.) when "He gave up the ghost;" -no "Passover lamb" could have been eaten at the "last supper" on the previous evening. 10. With these facts before us, we are now in a position to fill in the several days of the Lord's last week with the events recorded in the Gospels. By noting that the Lord returned to Bethany (or to the Mount of Olives) each night of that week, we are able to determine both the several days and the events that took place in them. HE HAS RISEN!!! We celebrate Passover to commemorate His death burial and later His Resurrection. We do not substitute Passover with the abominable practice of easter!!! The Resurrection of Christ Luke 24:1 Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. 2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. 3 And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus. 4 And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments: 5 And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? 6 He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee, 7 Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again. Luke 24:46 And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. 48 And ye are witnesses of these things. 49 And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high. Zachariah 13: 6 And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends. 7 Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, and against the man that is my fellow, saith the LORD of hosts: smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered: and I will turn mine hand upon the little ones. Zachariah 9: 9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. Zachariah 8: 8 Hear now, O Joshua the high priest, thou, and thy fellows that sit before thee: for they are men wondered at: for, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH. THE “BRANCH” is JESUS CHRIST 9 For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. Joshua is another name for Jesus, this is Jesus. The seven eyes are the Elect of God. 10 In that day, saith the LORD of hosts, shall ye call every man his neighbour under the vine and under the fig tree Matthew 12:39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: I believe this is the only sign that will be given to an evil and adulterous generation such as ours right now. Many seek after signs and wonders but fail to seek the one who gives the signs and wonders! 40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the (heart) of the earth. A more understandable rendition of these verses would be; Jesus went to paradise and revealed Himself to all who had died from the Genesis of mankind. An interesting word to note here is “HEART”; Strong's Concordance # 2588- Greek word for “heart” kardia: heart Original Word: καρδία, ας, ἡ Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine Transliteration: kardia Phonetic Spelling: (kar-dee'-ah) Short Definition: the heart, inner life, intention Definition: lit: the heart; mind, character, inner self, will, intention, center. the heart, thoughts, feelings Prolonged from a primary kar (Latin cor, "heart"); the heart, i.e. (figuratively) the thoughts or feelings (mind); also (by analogy) the middle -- (+ broken-)heart(-ed). ”Strong's Concordance# 2589 Greek words for “Heart knower” kardiognóstés: knower of heartsOriginal Word: καρδιογνώστης, ου, ὁ Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine Transliteration: kardiognóstés Phonetic Spelling: (kar-dee-og-noce'-tace) Short Definition: a knower of the inner life Definition: a knower of the inner life (character, hearts). which knows the hearts. From kardia and ginosko; a heart-knower -- which knowest the hearts. see GREEK kardia see GREEK ginosko During these three days and three nights after His crucifixion he went to paradise and preached to the hearts and minds of all of mankind and gave them the opportunity to accept the New Testament plan of His salvation. God had set this plan of salvation into motion before the foundation of the world. The modern day rendition of this event is just as bad as the account of Ishtar bunny. Modern day theologians claim that Christ went to the center of the earth in a cavern of hot molten lava where they claim all souls who have died in the past are waiting or sleeping. Then they actually claim there are three days and nights between Friday and Sunday. The modern Church has become nothing more than a den of myths and fairytales. The “sign given” is Jesus Christ in the tomb for three days and three nights and then He resurrected on the third day and it was witnessed by so many to be a fact. Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights and so was Jesus. Key words to understand in this study (Grove worship) (orgies) Dirty deeds done while running naked in the Groves with anyone and anything like a dog in heat. Young children were initiated at this time. (Sun goddess-Sunrise Service) Ishtar-Astaroth The easter sunrise service actually imitates what they did as pagans, worshiping the god of the sun in the early morning. After they worshiped the sun they would have orgies. Groves-Green Trees-High Hills are all symbolic of sexual perversion. (Easter egg) Symbolic of the fertility of a woman’s womb and also the sperm of man(Phallic symbol) Sexual organ of a man. Many churches during these times displayed these symbols in front of, or inside the Church building. They actually worshiped these symbols. So every time you mention the word easter you better know what you are referring to. It is an abomination to even mention this word at the time of Passover or any other time of the year for that matter. Revelation 17 and 18 I sit a Queen The Queen of heaven The harlot city Babylon A city or a world in a state of confusion Mystery Babylon, a blend of religion and corrupt governmental systems. All bound up in one neat package called MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. This is a perfect description of America and much of the world today. All the major pillars of our republic have been contaminated with this mother of harlots. It’s a new way of thinking or a state of mind that is contrary and even hostile to God. It flaunts itself as if it were a whore seductively walking down the street. She infects almost all she seduces into her web of deceit. All the merchants of the earth depend on her She is the queen of heaven… in her own mind This current Beast System including education, politics, religion and the monetary system have all been seduced by Mystery Babylon The Great …the whore of whores. Revelation 17:8 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Revelation 18:6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double. 18:7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Jeremiah 7:18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger. Daniel 12:12 Blessed is he that waiteth, and cometh to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days. 666+666=1332 “double her cup” in Revelation and “blessed is he who waits” the 1335 days of Daniel. 1332 is 3 days short of 1335. 13 But go thou thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest, and stand in thy lot at the end of the days. In the worship of false gods there always seems to be a sexual twist to it. The words idolatry and adultery are closely tied together. Look at today’s world, there is an all out assault on sexuality. Can you just imagine the perverted type of grove worship they would have today? My books are available on Amazon Kindle.

Passover Easter Good Friday conundrum Why would the translators transliterate pashca to Passover 28 times in the NT and then translate it once in Acts 12:4 to Easter? It is intentional deception… just as many of the secular accounts of the etymology of the word itself that are all based on false and misleading historical accounts instead of the Biblical account. The manuscripts give me all of the history I need to connect the queen of heaven to Ishtar and easter. The real issue is, how does the Father see it? First of all the modern church does a bait and switch with Passover and easter. They claim there is 3 days between Friday and Sunday calling Friday Good Friday, Friday being the crucifixion and Sunday the resurrection. Effectively replacing Jesus Christ with the easter bunny that lays eggs and on Christmas the birth of Jesus Christ with Santa Clause and his reindeer. Both are the “golden calves” of our time. 2 Chronicles 13:8 And now ye think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and ye be a great multitude, and there are with your golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods. Christ was the Passover Lamb and he was crucified on Nisan the 14th or April 3rd not a date chosen by man but by God. He was resurrected 3 days later on Nisan the 17th or April 6th. Good enough is not good enough for God, the dates are set in stone and not to be tampered with. Easter is not Passover and Passover is not easter. Why not just call it Passover and celebrate it on the right day? Here is how confused the modern church is; they call Passover easter and they call good Friday the crucifixion. To be consistent in their logic and understanding Friday would have to be easter and Sunday would be the crucifixion. If you’re going to call Passover easter at least get your story straight. Calling it Good Friday is an oxymoron. Passover has nothing to do with easter or Good Friday, they are purely the traditions of men which make void the Word of God. Christ was the Passover Lamb so why would you call it easter? See how confused they are? You can’t just pull a rabbit out of a hat and call the High Holy Day anything you want or celebrate it at any time of the year you want. God punished the children of Israel for doing the same thing. The prescribed time and day is set in stone. It is immutable according to God. Easter aint got nothing to do with the Passover or Good Friday for that matter. Exodus 12:27 That ye shall say, It is the sacrifice of the LORD's passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses. And the people bowed the head and worshipped. Leviticus 23:5 In the fourteenth day of the first month at even is the LORD's passover. The 14th day of Nisan. Nisan the first is the first day of spring, the equivalent to our March 20. Two weeks or 14 days from then is the Passover which is April 3rd. The best way to look at the meaning or etymology of a word is to look at the actions or deeds associated with the word itself. All of the earlier versions of the word Easter are associated with the worship of false gods no matter what you call it. You can claim the etymology of the word easter is incorrect but you can’t distance it from the deeds associated with it. What is sad is the modern church imitates all deeds done by the heathen of old who participated in Grove worship and don’t realize the word Easter represents grove worship and sexual perversion. The word easter is associated with the worship of false gods and should never be used during Passover. ASHTAROTH – ASHTARETH- ISHTAR- EASTER=First used in Genesis 14:5 “Ashtoreth” Hebrew # 6252 Original Word: עַשְׁתֹּ֫רֶת Part of Speech: Proper Name Feminine Transliteration: Ashtoreth Phonetic Spelling: (ash-to'reth) Short Definition: Ashtoreth Ashtoreth Probably for ashtrah; Ashtoreth, the Phoenician goddess of love (and increase) -- Ashtoreth. see HEBREW ashtrah Groves-Green Trees-High Hills All symbolic of sexual perversion. If you are not making the connection to idolatry you’re missing the point. The rabbit, eggs, baskets, the coloring of the eggs and sunrise services, all represent one form or another of idolatry and taken in by the modern church. All are symbols of fertility and grove worship on every high hill and under every green tree. It’s all the things the modern church does on easter that connects it to grove worship. The queen of heaven the goddess of fertility and increase is basically found in the word easter. They get the times and seasons wrong, they call it the wrong name and to top it off they worship other gods on the High Holy Day of Christianity. When children participate in easter egg hunts they are imitating grove worship that is nothing more than a sexual orgy in the groves. They ran around naked early in the morning after worshiping the sun and had sex with anything that moved. “Grove” Strong’s H # 842 Asherah: a Phoenician goddess, also an image of the same Original Word: אֲשֵׁרָה Part of Speech: Proper Name Feminine Transliteration: Asherah Phonetic Spelling: (ash-ay-raw') Short Definition: Asherim Or masheyrah {ash-ay-raw'}; from 'ashar; happy; Asherah (or Astarte) a Phoenician goddess; also an image of the same -- grove. Compare Ashtoreth.see HEBREW 'ashar see HEBREW Ashtoreth Excuses of the modern church The excuse I hear all the time is; we’re not thinking about grove worship or the Phoenician love goddess during easter we’re celebrating the resurrection. Or…we can celebrate it and the dates aren’t that important just so long as we celebrate it. One other thing I hear is that Passover is a Jewish holiday and not Christian. Who did Christ die for? Of course this is utter nonsense, Christ died for all and Passover is exclusively for Christians, Jews and gentiles alike if they believe. Look at Exodus 12:27 and Leviticus 23:5 closely, they are the LORDS Passover, not yours or mine. Ezekiel 8:16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD's house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east. This should raise up a red flag in your mind and bring a new meaning to the “sunrise service”. Yep you are getting “serviced” alright, by the devil himself.

2 Thessalonians 2: The only Bible reference you will need is 2 Thessalonians 2:7-9 for chronology of the second coming. 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. Michael kicks satan (antichrist) out of heaven 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: He is revealed after Michael kicks him out of Heaven. Christ will destroy him with the brightness of His Coming in that order. 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, Even HIM is Jesus who’s coming is AFTER the works of Satan, when he stands in the Holy place and claims to be God. I dont know how I can make any simpler for you. Satan is the cause of the great tribulation because he will steal many souls away from God at this time. Satan at the 666 seal trump and vile and Jesus at the 777 seal trump and vile, satan first and Jesus second. Below are the people who have fallen for false doctrine without examining it. 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. This is the most dangerous doctrine ever taught in the Christian Church. If you are expecting Jesus to return at any moment you will be deceived. The expectation of Christ to return at any moment was debunked by Paul in the early days of Christianity in 2 Thessalonians. He said it wouldn’t happen until after the man of sin is revealed. To go a step further, the two witnesses must be killed and witnessed by the entire world and 3 and one half days later will be the second coming. Only then can the return of Christ be imminent. There are two messiahs, one is real and the other a fake. This theme is woven throughout Gods Word. Malachi 4:6 calls them fathers plural. Paul has made very clear that the first messiah is the false one (antichrist) and Christ will destroy him with the brightness of HIS COMING. In essence the any moment doctrine is teaching its followers the first messiah is the real one contrary to Paul’s teaching. Just to clarify; the first messiah is none other than satan himself who stands in the holy place claiming to be Jesus. Will you lose your virginity before the real wedding takes place? 1 Corinthians 11:1 Would to God ye could bear with me a little in my folly: and indeed bear with me. 2 For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. (There is only one real husband) 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. By worshiping the false messiah you will have taken the dreaded mark of the beast and you could be in danger of losing your salvation. To those of you who teach the greatest lie ever told you will be held responsible for leading countless souls straight into the arms of a False messiah. I would hate to be in your shoes. Coming Appearing? Resurrection Two bodies two sides of the gulf. One body is immortal and the other still mortal For the goats the Millennium is a period of waiting for the next dispensation of time which is the GWTJ. Weeping and gnashing of teeth and being cast into outer darkness are in anticipation of the GWTJ. This proves they’re awake aware and still mortal. Hupnos describes it as being in a state of limbo but fully aware. Its a thousand years of hell. Hades describes it as a state of mind. Gehenna suggests that it is a state of decay and degradation for the realization of failure in the previous life. The rich man was not buried in dirt literally otherwise he could not see Lazarus in the Bosom of Abraham. He was in torment for his failure not because he was swimming in a lake of fire. The flesh body is not needed for a resurrection we are made in the image of God in both bodies. Celestial and terrestrial as Christ our example. People coming out of graves at Christ’s resurrection was a onetime event and never to be repeated. It is appointed to carnal man once to die and after that the judgment. To say our Celestial body is somehow incomplete without the terrestrial counterpart is erroneous. Why would we need an earthly tabernacle in the Millennium? Ecclesiastes 12:6 and 7 tells us what happens to the terrestrial body it goes back to dirt never to be remembered again. Why would you want to drag it to heaven? This is where the rapture doctrine goes haywire. Aint nobody rising up out of a hole in the ground and flying away. Harpadzo is often used by rapture false teachers to describe this, when in essence it is the separation of the spirit from the body as it is snatched away by force from the flesh. Ever been in the room when a loved one dies? There is a jolt so to speak and that is when the flesh dies and the spirit goes back to the Father. Look closer at the word resurrection, it has a threefold meaning; at death we are raised to a higher level to the spiritual body not at some later point in time. This is in complete opposition to the rapture scenario. They believe the terrestrial and celestial bodies will be reunited at the rapture which is contrary to sound doctrine and nothing but a fairy tale. Read Ezekiel 13 KJV Is a scathing report to the false teachers of our time who teach Christians they will fly away to heaven with both bodies. God hates it. Don’t let any false teacher claim it was written only to the Jews. After Christ’s crucifixion we are all grafted in. Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
