Foreword

The Bible is the story of God unfolding Himself from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts–through the Spoken Word–to the manifestation of those eternal thoughts in the glorified flesh of His Family. Through election, the Creator is taking form by creating Himself a part of His creation. "Jesus Christ is the beginning of the creation of God"; the New Testament saints are the continuation of the same Creation.

God's true revelation and purpose is being realized in a threefold manner. First He has revealed the fullness of Himself in Christ, so that second, He might have the preeminence in His Body of believers and live in His people, His true Temple not made with hands; and thirdly, to restore the Kingdom to Edenic perfection.

Christians are written epistles of the "present Truth" promised to their day, not impersonators of the Word for a day gone by. As the end of the Gentile dispensation is nigh the Lord sent William Branham to "restore the apostolic faith" (Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11), "finish the mystery of God," and call Christ's end-time Bride to come out of Babylon to maturity "in the unity of the faith" for the "manifestation of the Sons of God" and the translation (Romans 8:19; Ephesians 4:13; Revelation 10:7; 18:4).

Bible Believers' Newsletter 411

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we appreciate your fellowship.

Modern events are made clear by prophecy, and current events are certainly manifesting the Word God spoke thousands of years ago by fuzzy-faced sages covered in dust whose united voice now calls to the leaders and learned elders of Zion, "Let My people go that they may serve Me in the wilderness" (Revelation 11:1-2,8; 12:14)! Sin is heaped up on the US West Coast as once it accumulated in Jerusalem's temple. The day Los Angeles and Hollywood sink there will be another cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary, fifty days before our ascension as there was between Calvary and Christ's ascension. Satan and his angels will be cast out from heavenly places and God will turn back to Israel. From that point there will never be another Gentile reborn: most of those who call themselves Jews are not, but are liars, and lost (Revelation 2:9; 3:9), having squandered their day of redemption in errant conceit. God will only be dealing with an election of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and only in the Land of the Covenant—Edomites are not descendants of Jacob.

Our ministry is not to Israelites. God has ordained two Hebrew prophets in the Land of Israel with that responsibility. My ministry is to seek the Bride of Christ and preach them into the "rapture." If you are a Jew reading this Newsletter, you are almost certainly not an Israelite. This may be your last opportunity to make a reality check, redress your misguided racialist supremacist ideas, and receive your Messiah. If you are the elect of God, you will. But as the Israelite prophet Paul said, "If any man still disagrees, we will leave him in his ignorance" (I Corinthians 14:38).

This week we Space Cadets continue our study of Israel, God's timepiece for the countdown to dispensation's end, the manifestation of the Sons of God, resurrection and lift off to the celestial Wedding Supper.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

US Attack on Iran: The Perfect Storm for Wider Nuclear Conflict

January 2, 2006– Intelligence and military sources in the United States and abroad are reporting on various factors that indicate a US military hit on Iranian nuclear and military installations, that may involve tactical nuclear weapons, is in the final stages of preparation.

Within the US military and across the globe, there is heightened tension about the intentions of the neocon Bush administration and its allies in Israel. Full story: waynemadsenreport

Comment: Should the "Great Satan" attack Iran in the next few months we may anticipate a spectacular April 18 (Nisan 14) with an earthquake sinking Los Angeles and a 1,500 x 3-400 mile chunk of earth beneath the Pacific, cleaving the mount of Olives and demolishing the Dome of the Rock on the other side of the world. This initiation of Daniel's Seventieth Week and "hot" phase of World War III would be followed in June by Russia's successful attack and invasion of mainland USA. We shall see.

Chemtrails– Predictions

January 5, 2006– If repeatedly dosing people with small amounts of raw petrochemicals and the world's most toxic pesticide would eventually ruin their immune system and make them less resistant to airborne disease (which are in fact some of the known consequences of exposure), the objective of the chemtrail program was to make people more susceptible to airborne diseases, and less capable of surviving them. . . When it is over we can all wonder why the mortality rate in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and most of Europe was so much higher than one would expect of countries with well developed medical systems. And so much lower in those countries where people are in good health but were free of chemtrails.

Considering that the main event is now relatively imminent, I don't think there's much risk in going on the record today to predict that chemtrails will end soon . . . Full story: rense.com

DU and Nuclear Fallout

The radiation fallout map from "Under The Cloud: The Decades of Nuclear Testing" illustrates the effects of 1,200 nuclear weapons tests conducted at the Nevada Test Site. The US Government admitted in November, 2002, that everyone living in the United States between 1958 and 1963 was exposed to fallout from nuclear weapons testing. The United States has an epidemic of radiation related diseases . . .

The long-term effects from over a decade of DU exposure are emerging in southern Iraq. They are devastating. However, the increased amount of radioactive material used in Afghanistan (3 times greater than in Iraq in 1991), and Iraq in 2003 (6-10 times greater than 1991) will travel throughout a larger area . . . Countries within a thousand miles of Iraq will be affected . . . The amount of DU used in Iraq in 2003 is equivalent in atomicity to nearly 250,000 Nagasaki bombs.

Jesus Christ, Outlaw

To marry the two ideologies [like Judaism and Christianity] is ludicrous, inasmuch as Judaism seeks the outright eradication of Christianity and the subjugation of all other races to the Jewish agenda. Think not? The Jews' own Talmud, at Sohar (II 64b), demands that the "Christian birth rate must be diminished materially," while Schabbath (116a) commands that "the books of Christians are to be burned." Soferim 15, Rule 10 demands that "even the best of the Goyim (Christians) should be killed."

Jews don't want you to know this, but their Talmudic book, Hilkoth Melakhim, says that Christians sin by worshiping Jesus, while Hilkoth Maakhaloth boldly states that "Christians are idolaters." Why don't you ever hear about things like this? Consider the following, from the Talmud's Szaaloth-Utszabot, The Book of Jore Dia 17: "A Jew should and must make a false oath when the goyim asks if our books contain anything against them."

A Friend Loves at all Times

A man was walking with his dog enjoying the scenery when it occurred to him that he was dead. He remembered his cruel death, and that the dog had died centuries before him, and wondered where the road was leading. After a while, they came to a high white wall of fine marble, with a grand mother-of-pearl arch resplendent in the sunlight. The street within its magnificent gates looked like pure gold and he could see someone at a desk. When they were close enough, he called out, "Excuse me, where are we?"

"This is Heaven, sir," answered the man.

"Praise God!" exclaimed the man, "Would you happen to have some water?"

"Of course, sir. Come right in. I'll have some ice water brought right up." He beckoned as the gate began to open.

"Can my friend come in, too?" asked the traveler, gesturing toward his dog.

"I'm sorry, sir, no dogs allowed."

The man thought for a moment then turned back toward the road and continued leading his dog the way he had been going.

After another long walk, and at the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road leading through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. There was no fence, and as he approached the gate, he saw a man inside leaning against a tree reading a Book.

"Excuse me!" he called. "Do you have any water?"

"Sure, there's a pump over there, come on in."

"How about my friend here?" (The traveler gestured to the dog).

"There should be a bowl by the pump."

They went through the gate, and sure enough, there was an old fashioned hand pump with a bowl beside it. The traveler filled the bowl and took a long drink himself. When they were satisfied, he and the dog walked back to the man standing by the tree. "What do you call this place?"

"This is Heaven," was the reply.

"Well, that's confusing," said the traveler. "The man down the road said his place was Heaven."

"Oh, you mean the palace with the gold street and pearly gates? That's hell!"

"Doesn't it make you mad that they use your Name like that?"

"No, we're happy they sift out folk who would leave their old friends behind" (Isaiah 49).

Under Messiah Israel shall be delivered from Satan.

Isaiah 34 and 35 form a single prophecy. The former part announces God's judgment against Israel's enemies, represented by Edom, her impersonator (Malachi 1:2-5); the second part portrays the flourishing state of the nation consequent on those judgments when the kingdom is restored. This forms the termination of the prophecies of the first part of Isaiah's Book and is a summary of what went before, setting forth the one main truth, Israel shall be delivered from all its foes, and happier times shall succeed in the Millennium under Messiah.

The judgment of God will begin in heaven and continue on earth Isaiah 34:4-5; Revelation 12:7-9. Messiah will not leave His old friends behind (Zechariah 13:6; John 15:13).

Jubilee Part III

"If you want to see what day of the month it is, look on the calendar. If you want to see what day in the season it is of the Coming of the Lord, watch where Israel's sitting. That's God's timepiece. There she is, sitting in her Homeland" (William Branham, Mark of the Beast, #61-0217). Israel's religious calendar follows an unchanging pattern of seasons and times of meeting with God who keeps all of His appointments and has promised He will return to communion with His servant nation seven years before the Millennium. It behooves us therefore to watch "God's timepiece," a true reading of which will fine-tune our faith and assist us to be prepared for the hour of our departure.

Isaiah 11:10-16 declares the permanent return of Israel to the Promised Land and relates this to the 'parousia' Coming of the Son of man to Israel in Daniel's Seventieth Week. These verses are in parenthesis and should be read between verses 1-5 and 6-9. Verse 10 states plainly that we Gentiles will receive Messiah before Israel and that the promised return and gathering of that nation out of all lands will only take place afterwards.

Isaiah 11:10-12, "In that day the root of Jesse (and Heir of David's Royal grant, our Lord Jesus Christ), shall stand as an ensign of His Spiritual kinfolk: Him shall the Gentiles seek, and the Place of His rest shall be glorious."

The Place of Messiah's rest is where He reveals the fullness of His might and glory: it is "His Body, the Church, filled with Himself, the Author and Giver of all things everywhere" (Ephesians 1:23). Oh, we're watching for the coming of that glad Millennial day when our Lord to earth will come and catch His waiting Bride away . . . the whole creation is in birth pains, waiting for the manifestation of the "third pull" in Sons of God.

"In that day the Lord will extend His hand yet a second time to recover the remnant which is left of His natural kinsmen, from Assyria, from Egypt, from Pathros, from Ethiopia, from Elam, from Shinar, from Hamath, and from the coastlands of the Mediterranean sea. He will raise up an ensign to those nations, not for the Gentiles but as a rallying point for the outcast Israelites, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth." This signal will be of no interest to any Gentiles, whose elect has already been gathered into the Body of Christ in the previous verse. This sign and revelation will be meant exclusively for the Israelites.

In this final regathering the historic rivalry between Ephraim and Judah shall cease, for no Israelite knows his tribal descent, and united they will conquer and subjugate all of their enemies of the past, and the Lord shall overcome any obstruction to their return as once He divided the Red Sea. This has happened, albeit in the presence of a mixed multitude whose wickedness God works toward the blessing of His elect (Romans 8:28-33).

Israel's "remnant" will not include this mixed multitude of non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews or even Israelites of the flesh who imagine salvation and eternal Life are guaranteed through their conception in sin since they are the blood descendants of Abraham. John the Baptist long ago rebuked such hubris when he cried, "You seed of the Serpent! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bear the fruits of repentance. Don't you begin to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as our father: for I tell you, God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham. Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees (or spiritual principles): every tree therefore that does not bear forth good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire" (Luke 3:7-9). From this we see that "not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel . . . for it is not children of the flesh that are the children of God, but the children of Promise are recognized as descendants" (Romans 9:6).

Not all who remain after the great judgments will belong to the "remnant," but only an election that bear the genuine fruits of repentance. Paul confirms this in Romans 11:4-28 where he states that "all Israel shall be saved" then limits the "all" to an "election." This elect remnant is 144,000 blood Israelites as in the days of Elijah (Revelation 7:1-8; I Kings 19:18).

We observe how the State of Israel has been restored in unbelief, for the Lord describes present-day Jerusalem as "Sodom and Egypt spiritually speaking:" (Revelation 11:1-2, 8). So it is not the fleshly descent from Abraham that is the criterion of belonging to the remnant, but the return of individuals of Abraham's seed to God Almighty. Abraham's seed is born of faith in the promised Word for their hour, not by sex.

Jews boast that their dispersion has made them wealthy and enabled them to take dominion over Israel as their father Isaac prophesied (Genesis 27:39-40). But the Israelite knows his dispersion is a reproach and chastisement from the Lord, outside the Promised Land the covenant is not in effect, and he cannot observe his sabbath day, for his one provided place of rest is in Palestine.

The first exile was in Egypt whence the Lord wonderfully redeemed Israel with a "strong hand." The second exile began with Israel's captivity and dispersion in 721BC. This would be followed by the Servitude, Captivity and Desolations of Judah and Jerusalem, beginning in 606BC and continuing until recent times because they rebelled against the Lord in refusing to return from Babylon. This second dispersion had been prophesied in 758BC (Isaiah 6).

Israel did not receive the Lord when He came to His own (John 1:11): I was "found of them who sought Me not, I was made manifest to Gentiles who asked not after Me. But to Israel God said, All day long I have stretched forth My hands to a disobedient and gainsaying people" (Isaiah 65:1-2 LXX; Romans 10:20). Thus Israel would be broken up and scattered into all lands by Titus, the Roman "prince who shall come and destroy the city and the temple" (Daniel 9:26).

The Lord has purchased Israel at great cost, therefore this headstrong nation is His personal property: His servant bound to learn obedience by the rod (Exodus 15:16).

Speaking of the ensign God would raise up as a signal for the outcast Israelites, Brother Branham said, "For twenty-five hundred years the Jews have been scattered to every nation under heaven. As God hardened Pharaoh's heart, bringing them back, He hardened Hitler's heart, Mussolini's heart, and so forth, till He's drove them back to Palestine. Coming back they have made them a nation again, and on May the sixth, 1947, the Jewish flag was raised over Israel for the first time for twenty-five hundred years. The oldest flag in the world was raised for the first time in twenty-five hundred years. And He said in the last days He'd raise up a ensign over Jerusalem, showing that the time is at hand" (The Beginning and Ending of the Gentile Dispensation, p. 10:89; Isaiah 11:10-12; Matthew 24:32-34).

2,520 years of Worldwide Dispersion

Israel has experienced three major dispersions. The first was their sojourn and eventual bondage in Egypt; the second was the Servitude and Captivity in Babylon, and third was an extension of the second by 2,520 years of worldwide dispersal as punishment for refusing to return at the conclusion of the Babylonian Servitude and Captivity. Thus for a further 2,520 years her flag did not fly above an independent nation. Moses, Daniel, Ezekiel and Brother Branham each foretold the number of years the Hebrews would be stateless and scattered among the Gentiles or nations. Brother Branham said, those Israelites who refuse to return from their comfort among the Gentiles in this day will be trapped, forfeiting their redemption.

Daniel 9:24-27 has a period of 490 years divided into three parts:
7 | weeks of years
62 | weeks of years
1 | week of years
Ezekiel 3:24– 4:8 has a period of 430 years divided into two parts:
390 | days of prophetic years
40 | days of prophetic years

Jeremiah's 70 years was an exact period of time. At the end of the Servitude and Captivity in Babylon, Palestine again became an Israelite Homeland. And all who so desired could return.

The prophesied Servitude of seventy years was literally fulfilled by their return as recorded by Ezra and Nehemiah, following the Decree of King Cyrus, fulfilling the Divine promise of Jeremiah 29:10 in accordance with which the fullest liberty was granted to the exiles to return to Palestine (Ezra 1, 2). But until the era of the Desolations had run its course, not one stone was to be set on another on Mount Moriah. This is the key to explaining the seemingly inexplicable fact that the firman to build the temple, granted to eager agents by Cyrus in the zenith of his power, remained in abeyance until his death. Thus a few renegade Samaritans were able to thwart the execution of "the law of the Medes and Persians, which changeth not".

When the years of the Desolations were expired, a prophecy was given by the prophets Haggai and Zechariah for the building of the sanctuary at Jerusalem (Ezra 5:1-2, 5; 6:14). In obedience to that Divine command, and without waiting for permission from the capital, the Hebrews returned to the work in which they had so long been hindered.

But the return from the Babylonian captivity was only partial. The vast majority of Israelites remained in Babylon whose culture and religion were repugnant to Yahweh Torah over which they were imposed in the form of the Talmud and Pharisaism, and Babylon, not Jerusalem, continued to be the centre of Jewish religious scholarship until about AD1200. However, God had revealed to Moses that the punishments handed out to Israel for sin would be multiplied by seven if the people did not repent of their disobedience:

Leviticus 26:25-28, "I will bring a sword upon you that will avenge the breaking of My covenant. When you have gathered in your cities, I will send a plague among you, and you will be delivered into the hand of your enemy. When I break your staff of bread, ten women shall bake your bread in a single oven and return your loaves weighed out; and you shall eat but not be satisfied. If in spite of this you will not hearken to Me but continue in hostile opposition, then I will be hostile toward you, and punish you sevenfold for your sins".

Thus, after the 70 years, Palestine did not become independent—it was always a captive nation. Israel never again had a reigning king and Palestine was in succession dominated by Persia, Greece, Syria and Rome. Finally, they were scattered once more among all nations where they have remained until this day, repeating since 1948 the disobedient behavior of the exiles who did not return from Babylon after 536BC.

At midnight on May 14, 1948, Britain's UN mandate expired. Israel became an independent nation, and worldwide dispersion was over for Israelites who were obedient to the Lord, for outside the Promised Land the Mosaic Covenant is of no effect. For the first time in history a nation that had ceased to exist was restored under its name and her medieval flag was flown over a sovereign land. But Jerusalem was a partitioned city.

Whenever the Israelites have been outside their land, times have been set for their return. In 536BC a small minority returned to Palestine, and history follows their descendants who were in the land at the time of the advent and rejection of Jesus the Messiah. But there is the other dispersion which has existed since the fall of Jerusalem in 586BC.

So there are two lines of history, and two lines of prophecy. One concerns the Hebrews who returned to Palestine in 536BC. The other concerns those Jews that were scattered among the nations and later joined by those from Palestine, and are yet to return to their Land.

Daniel's prophecy follows the Jews who returned from Babylon, rebuilt Jerusalem and its walls, and rejected their Messiah.

Ezekiel's prophecy concerns those who did not return. It was stated in such a way as would not influence its fulfillment nor point to the time of the Resurrection. The time element was somewhat veiled because the return of the Jews is associated so closely in time with the First Resurrection.

Ezekiel's Dramatized Prophecy

Ezekiel was a priest whose commission was probably in 593BC after he had lived among the captives in Babylon for six years (Ezekiel 1:1-2; 33:21). His mute prophecy takes the number of years of eventual dispersion and mimes a prophetic pantomime (Ezekiel 3:24-4:8).

God sealed his lips so he could not reprove Israel, and then instructed His prophet to inscribe a picture or map of Jerusalem on a clay tile and bring against it an irresistible siege, indicated by the iron griddle. (Normally griddles were made of ceramic ware). By glaring at the city he expresses God's Own anger, and in his siege activities he represents Nebuchadnezzar as Jehovah's servant. This mock siege is a sign for "the house of Israel," Ezekiel's companions in Babylon. "Israel" almost always refers to the entire people, and in Ezekiel 2:3 connotes both the people back in Jerusalem as well as the exiles among whom he lived (Ezekiel 3:11).

For 390 days Ezekiel lay on his left side, bearing the iniquity of the House of Israel, a day for a year. He next lay on his right side for 40 days to bear the iniquity of the House of Judah. The 390 years of Israel's sin is reckoned from the day Israel rebelled with Jeroboam against Rehoboam (977BC) and received a covenant of blessing by the prophet Ahijah, to the day they were led away captive (I Kings 11:29-39) and signifies not only the years of apostasy but also the 390 days of the siege of Jerusalem. The 40 years of Judah's sin refers to that part of Manasseh's fifty-five year's reign in which he had not repented, and which, we are expressly told, was the cause of God's removal of Judah, notwithstanding king Josiah's reformation (II Kings 21:10-16; II Kings 23:26-27).

The symbolic action in Ezekiel 4:12-15 changes the setting from the siege of verses 9-11, where an anxious and desolate people were portrayed as eating food of limited weight and drink of limited measure, to life in exile. A Divine command calls upon Ezekiel to bake publicly a barley cake, the food of the poor, on fuel consisting of human dung to signify that the Israelites will have to eat their bread unclean among the nations. Since foreign lands were unclean in themselves, all consumption of food in exile would take place in a condition of uncleanliness (Amos 7:17).

These years began with the siege of Jerusalem in 589BC (Ezekiel 4:16-17). The purpose of the prophecy is to show how long the Israelites will be scattered among the nations one year for each day of Ezekiel's pantomime: 390 + 40 = 430 years.

But the iniquity and dispersion of Israel and Judah did not end in 390 years, or in 40 more years. In fact, these figures from Ezekiel do not point to any experience in the dispersion of the Tribes. Therefore, some other factors or conditions must be applied. Those conditions are found in Leviticus 26:18.

Two periods of punishment are evident. But the length of time of the first punishment is not given in Leviticus, it is given in Jeremiah 29:10 and Daniel 9:2 The Lord said, that if after the first period His people do not leave their sins and turn to God, the balance of the punishment will be multiplied by seven.

Ezekiel in pantomime laid siege to Jerusalem for a total of 430 days, indicating 430 years were determined against Jerusalem for the combined punishment of the twelve tribes. They were punished in Babylon 70 years. 430– 70 = 360 years.

According to Leviticus 26:18, God revealed to Moses, the penalty for refusing His correction was a sevenfold further punishment. 360 x 7 = 2,520 years. The number of years of world-wide dispersion from Jerusalem is therefore 2,520 years from the time of their restoration following the Desolation.

Nebuchadnezzar began the Captivity in about 606BC. He began the invasion of Jerusalem on Tebeth 10, (December 15), 589BC (Ezekiel 24:1-2). The city was taken on the 9th Tammuz, 587 (and burnt on 7th Ab in the eleventh year of Zedekiah, and the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar II Kings 25:2-3, 8-9), called "the twelfth year of our captivity" in Ezekiel 33:21, the news having reached the exiles on 5th Tebeth 586, the year in which the last group of captives were transported to Babylon. The return also took about twenty years.

We are expressly told the period of Desolations was fixed at 70 years because of Israel's neglect of the Sabbath years (II Chronicles 36:21; Leviticus 26:34-35). This explains the fact that a few stubborn Samaritans were allowed to thwart the execution of the work expressly ordered by the edict of Cyrus.

Until the era of the Desolations had run its course, the Divine judgment which rested on the land vetoed rebuilding the sacred Temple. The era ended and the first return commenced 70 years from the invasion, bringing us to Chisleu 24, 520BC in the second year of Darius Hystaspes of Persia: November 21, 520BC (Ezra 4:24; 5:1-2; Haggai 2:10,15-19; Zechariah 1:12).

An interval of seventeen years lapsed between the epoch of the servitude and that of the desolations so the second period extended beyond the first by seventeen years. Seventeen, the seventh prime or indivisible number, is the number of perfection of spiritual order which is why it was so often associated with the ministry of Brother Branham.

Desolations of Jerusalem

Israel lost its independence in 606BC but Jerusalem and its temple were unscathed. The city and Temple were destroyed in 586BC, God's punishment for resisting the "Servitude of the Nation" which began in 606BC with the first siege of Nebuchadnezzar (Jeremiah 27:6,8,11; 29:10; 38:17-21; Daniel 9:2).

Ezekiel 4:1-7 applies to the "Servitude of the Nation to Babylon" but also to the "Desolations of Jerusalem." In calculating these eras, we find ourselves at the end of the enforced dispersion of Daniel's "people" with Israel's restoration to statehood in 1948. Henceforth, those Israelites who do not return to the Homeland will be reprobates who have refused to obey the commands of God and rejected any claim to the Old Covenant. With the return of Daniel's "holy city" to Israel sovereignty the scene is set for God to meet with them in what is, as far as they are aware, God's only provided place of worship (Deuteronomy 16:1-6). For the Promised Land and the City of Jerusalem must both be under Israelite occupation before God can "set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people" and fulfill Daniel's Seventieth Week (Isaiah 11:11; Zechariah 13:7c; Revelation 6:12– 7:8).

430 years– 70 years = 360 years x 7 = 2,520 prophetic years x 360 days = 907,200 days. Let us calculate back from May 14, 1948 using the 25,200 day (70 years) and the 907,200 days (2,520 years):

Everything has been in transition from West to East since 1948. For all prophecy, including Daniel's Seventieth Week, must be fulfilled before the generation that saw Israel restored can pass away (Luke 21:32). Luke was a Greek Gentile (Colossians 4:10-14). This is inferred from the fact he is at pains to explain Jewish customs, sometimes substitutes Greek names for Hebrew, and that he addressed his gospel especially to the Gentiles. The day of the revealing of the Son of man is mentioned only in Luke (17:28-30).

This approximates the date of the Six-Days or Yom Kippur War (5-10 June, 1967), fulfilling 2,520 years from the first return seventy years after the fall of Jerusalem in 587BC. Following this victory, Israel has controlled Jerusalem as an autonomous sovereign nation for the first time since Nebuchadnezzar conquered the city and burned the Temple. When Defense minister Moshe Dayan paid his first visit to the Old City of Jerusalem on June 7, he said, "We have unified Jerusalem, the divided capital of Israel. We have returned to the holiest of our holy places, never to depart from it again." On June 27 the minister of the interior, under a law passed by the Knesset the day before, issued an order extending the limits of Jerusalem and jurisdiction of Israeli law to the eastern part of the city. At noon the next day, all barriers were removed. Now Israel is rapidly becoming what Ezekiel called it, "the center of the earth" (Ezekiel 5:5; 38:12).

We may not have calculated precise days or dates but we have achieved a close reckoning and know that all 2,520 years have expired. If you would like to "prove all things," this Julian, Hebrew, and Gregorian calendar converter, and this calendar converter which also computes the years from Adam will be of great assistance.

The product of the four numbers of perfection is 2,520

3 is the number of Divine perfection.
7 is the number of Spiritual perfection.
10 is the number of Ordinal perfection.
12 is the number of Governmental perfection.
2,520 is the number of chronological perfection.

3 x 7 x 10 x 12 = 2,520. This is the least common multiple of the ten digits governing all numeration, and can therefore be divided by each of the ten digits without a remainder. Because the consummation of man's history will occur within the generation which saw Israel restored to the Promised Land, the prophecy of the 2,520 years concerns both natural and Spiritual Israel.

How close are We to the Hour of Our Pentecostal Jubilee?

The partial fulfilment in our lifetime of the following prophecies among many others spoken millennia ago cannot be disputed. But it is equally clear that these prophecies apply only to the return and restoration of blood Israelites and not to their replacement by Jews unrelated to the people, land or covenants of Israel. Furthermore, these prophecies are conditional to the repentance and conversion of the elect Israelites, which will take place after the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week. Following their conversion the false church and their associates, the self-styled Jews, will martyr these saints of God (Daniel 12:1; Revelation 7:11; 12:17; 13:15-18; 14:12).

Deuteronomy 30:1-6 prophesied 3,457 years ago, "When Israel has experienced all these things, the blessings and the curses I have listed, and you meditate upon them among all the Gentiles where the Lord your God shall have driven you, and you return to the Lord your God, you and your children, and obey His Voice in all that I command you this day, with all your heart and with all your soul, then the Lord your God will restore your fortunes and have compassion on you and gather you again from all the nations where He scattered you. Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the heavens, from there the Lord your God will fetch you back to the land which your fathers possessed that you may possess it. He will make you more prosperous and numerous than your fathers".

Amos 9:14-15 prophesied 2,793 years ago, "I will bring back My exiled people Israel; they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them. They will plant vineyards and drink the wine; they will make gardens and eat the fruit. I will plant them upon their land, never again to be uprooted from the land I have given them, says the Lord your God".

Jeremiah 16:14-15 prophesied 2,607 years ago, "Take notice, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when it shall no longer be said, As the Lord lives who brought up the people of Israel out of Egypt, but as the Lord lives who brought up the people of Israel out of the land of the north country and out of all the countries where He had driven them. For I will bring them back to their own land which I gave to their forefathers".

Luke 21:29-33 prophesied about 1,973 years ago, "Behold the fig tree (Israel), and all the trees (Goy nations); as soon as they put forth leaves (or begin their national revivals as they all did following the independence granted to most former colonies after World War II), you know and do not need to be told that summer (and the harvest of mature fruit or elect of all nations) is at hand. Likewise when you notice these things taking place, be assured that the kingdom of God (on earth—the Millennium) is near. I assure you, this generation shall not pass away, till all of the foregoing prophecies have been fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away and be renewed: but My Words shall not change".

Romans 11:15 prophesied perhaps 1,940 years ago, "If Israel's rejection of Messiah meant the reconciliation of the Gentile world to God, what must their acceptance of Jesus Christ mean but Life from the dead"!

Brother Branham prophesied in 1935, 71 years ago, the year his first son was born, that an earthquake will sink Los Angeles. In 1965, he told his son, "I may not be here, but you won't be an old man until sharks will swim right where we are standing" (Pearry Green, The Acts of the Prophet, p. 119). Brother Billy Paul fulfilled his lifespan on September 13, 2005. Before he becomes "an old man," Los Angeles will slide beneath the Pacific. eb411.htm

Alaska Volcano near Eruption

January 11, 2006– The Augustine Volcano in Alaska could erupt in hours or days, according to the Alaska Volcano Observatory. The level of concern color code is now orange, which indicates it could erupt at any time.

Recent observations indicated the volcano is producing new magma and a thermal camera measured steam temperature from one of the vents at 750 degrees—well above the average temperature. Seismic activity also increased this week. The only color code more serious than orange is red, indicating the volcano is already erupting or is expected to at any time.

The Holocaust® as a Mechanism for Suppressing the Truth

It is now, and only now, that we find out that this second largest mass extermination of human beings in the 20th century did occur in what was formally the greater German Reich. But, the victims were not Jewish concentration camp inmates, and there were not six million murdered during a war, but rather the victims were 9.3 million German civilians and prisoners of war murdered by the Allies after Hitler was dead and after "peace" was declared. . . This real holocaust cannot be denied. For, unlike the holocaust we all grew up hearing about, the numbers are not inflated. . . Full story: louisbeam.com

The CIA's Dangerous Failures in Iran

Philippe Gelie plumbs James Risen's new book State of War, The Secret History of the CIA and the Bush Administration, for revelations that the CIA—far from protecting the US and its citizens—in the great tradition of the Keystone Cops, gave Teheran plans to make the bomb, destroyed its own Iranian network, ignored its own informants about the absence of WMD in Iraq, allowed Afghanistan to revert to narco-state status, and more. . .

Comment: These were not failures, but design. I suspect the disinformation contained within these truths was cunningly crafted to guide the perplexed into believing that 9/11 really was a foreign attack on the USA, and that Iran really is aiming at becoming a nuclear force.

US opening some Private Mail in Terror Fight

Washington, January 10, 2006– US officials are opening personal mail that arrives from abroad when they deem it necessary to protect the country from terrorism, a Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman said Monday.

News of the little-known practice follows revelations government approved eavesdropping on US citizens without judicial oversight after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, which sparked concern from civil liberties advocates and some lawmakers, who called for congressional hearings.

The Witchcraft of the Narnia Chronicles

Very soon our children here in the United States and elsewhere in the world are going to experience a bewitching and a deceptive occult indoctrination. On December 9th, 2005, a new Disney movie was released entitled "The Chronicles of Narnia." The movie is based on the book by C.S. Lewis entitled The Chronicles of Narnia; The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. It is a sad fact that mainstream "Christianity" esteems C.S. Lewis as a great "Christian" author and his writings as edifying with profound themes of "Christian" teachings. The C.S. Lewis books can be found in "Christian" bookstores everywhere, and even Dr. James Dobson's Focus on the Family organization is offering and promoting the works of C.S. Lewis. These same books, however, can also be found in occult bookstores everywhere!

As a former witch, astrologer, and occultist who has been saved by the grace of God, I know that the works of C.S. Lewis are required reading by neophyte witches, especially in the United States and England. This includes The Chronicles of Narnia, because it teaches neophyte, or new witches, the basic mindset of the craft. Isn't it strange, though, that many "Christian" churches and organizations have used The Chronicles of Narnia as Sunday School curriculum?

When I saw the release date of this new movie, I was not surprised. December 9th is the 13th day before the witches' quarter-sabat of Yule. The full cold moon is midway between the release date and the sabat of Yule. The waxing moon is also directly on the equinox on the release date of the movie. This is far too precisely occultic to be coincidental, and the producers of the movie no doubt consulted upper-level witches regarding the perfect day to have the "Chronicles of Narnia" open. . .

Vatican Muscling in on Jerusalem

January 07, 2006– In a statement whose arrogance and contempt he seemingly could not see, the Vatican's legal advisor in Israel, David Jaeger, told an international conference in Haifa Tuesday that Jerusalem was too important a city to leave in the hands of either "Palestinians" or Jews. . .

(Comment: This is axiomatic for those with ears to hear and eyes to see).

Ironically the Vatican, which claims to be spiritual home to one billion of the world's Christians, rejects the biblical stipulation granting everlasting possession of ancient Canaan, inclusive of Jerusalem, to the Jewish people.

(Comment: There is not a single Christian who calls the Vatican "Home." Rome is the enemy of Christ as Jews are the enemy of Israel. There is no stipulation in all the pages of Holy Writ granting Canaan and Jerusalem to the Jewish people. On the contrary, Jerusalem was made the capital of the Israelite nation, and Canaan their Homeland).

Since 1947 it has sought to have Jerusalem internationalized, confident that with Rome's massive global constituency the pope will be able to exercise substantial control over the city. Jaeger is historically on solid ground when he says the Palestinian Arabs should have no say over Jerusalem. The city has never been an Arab capital and the "Palestinians" have no historic or national rights to it (or to any other part of Israel's biblical homeland).

(Comment: This is untruthful. The city was founded as Jebus by the Canaanite tribe of the Jebusites. It came into the hands of Israelites, not Jews, under King David in about 1048BC. It has been under Gentile dominion from 606BC to the present day, and will remain so unto the consummation of all life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2, 8).

Instead of being obsessed by delusions of earthly grandeur which are aberrations of Scripture, the journalist is encouraged to seek Jerusalem that is Above and is the Mother of all who will be born in the heavenly Zion).

The Jews, by contrast, have venerated the city as their holiest site for over 3,000 years. Israel is the only nation that has ever had Jerusalem as its capital. During centuries of exile, Jews everywhere prayed daily to return to Jerusalem in order to be able to once again worship their God in this place.

(Comment: That is the prayer of hypocrites. When Israel was given the liberty to return to Jerusalem in 536BC they refused, preferring to pray long-distance from Babylon. God cursed them seven times more for their iniquity (Leviticus 26:18). Since those additional 2,520 years of worldwide dispersion and expropriation of Israel's capital expired in 1948 and 1967, the Israelites still refuse to return. Meanwhile the Jews are returning to Germany. But Jerusalem is the only place where God met Israel under the Blood of the lamb, and where He will meet Israel under the Blood of Messiah on their day of true Atonement (Joel 2:32; Zechariah 13:6-9). But these things have nothing to do with the Jews who are the historical enemy of Israel and Jerusalem).

Jerusalem is described in the New Testament as the "City of the great King," referring to Jesus of Nazareth who also bears the title King of the Jews.

(Comment: Pontius Pilate named Jesus King of the "Judeans" or residents of the Province of Judea regardless of gender, race or religion. Scripture calls Jesus "the King of Israel," meaning the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—an entirely different race to most Judeans. The City of the Great King is the City of David, King of Israel; his greater Son Jesus Messiah is the Great King of Israel. Herod was King of the Jews).

The book of Revelation, foretelling Jesus' return to Jerusalem, calls Him the Lion of the Tribe of Judah—i.e. He remains Jewish.

(Comment: Jesus was never "Jewish" but a Hebrew and Israelite of the tribe of Judah. Were He Jewish He could not be the kinsman Redeemer for Adam's fallen race. As an infant the Jews sought to kill Him as they had killed all God's righteous prophets from Abel to Zechariah (Matthew 23:33-35). This was why Joseph and Mary fled to Egypt, and why they later dwelt in Galilee of the Gentiles among the Benjaminites whose land had been stolen by the Jews whilst Benjamin was captive in Babylon).

In recent history, it has only been while under Jewish administration that Jerusalem has flourished and that protected access to all of its holy places (including Christian and Muslim sites) has been guaranteed.

(Comment: This is untruthful. The journalist speaks of conditions that prevailed for almost two thousand years prior to the establishment of the Jewish state, when Semitic Hebrews who were Israelites and Semitic Arabs lived together in harmony whether their religious belief was Yahweh Torah, Judaism, Christian, Islam, Druse or whatmore).

Between 1949 and 1967, when the Arab kingdom of Jordan occupied the eastern part of the city, the rights of Jews and Christians to visit their holy places was restricted, sometimes denied. The Jewish Quarter of the Old City was left to rot, its synagogues sacked and burned.

Despite this, the Vatican believes it should have a say that could deny the right of the Jewish people to keep their beloved capital in their hands.

Comment: Christians have no "holy places," and although the Talmud and both Testaments of the Bible foretell Rome will rule Earth from Jerusalem, we support none of her claims but suggest the Journalist confront the Jewish hierarchy in league with the Vatican to employ the prophecies of Scripture to their own ends.

Gathering the Nations to the Sun that rises upon Jerusalem

God has a Plan and His Adversary and ours has a counter plan, and while the unregenerate and babes in Christ can hybrid God's Message into plans of their own, they become variants of Lucifer's plan, so close to the faith as would deceive the very elected if it were possible. But once the elect is exposed to the revelation he sees the Light and repents of his error.

God's Plan and Message are perfect and can never change while Lucifer's plan is in constant flux, and since he has no Absolute, the ends justify the means. Whereas God's Plan is based on love that entails the voluntarily service to another by bringing one's own senses subject to internal principles for the benefit of the other, Lucifer's plan is based upon external laws imposed with the objective of alluring, deceiving or forcing others into his service.

God's plan is to manifest His Attributes in the material form of His glorified Family, a Royal House of priest-kings ruling over a global kingdom ordered by the Light of His Divine Life in them. He created this finished Plan in His great eternal thinking before time and material creation began. Then it was the Kingdom of heaven, but as His thoughts are eternal and they are real, in the fullness of time its Capital, New Jerusalem, will come down from God out of heaven as a bride adorned for her husband, and the Kingdom of Heaven will become the glorified Kingdom of God ruling over all the kingdoms of this Earth.

As New Jerusalem was created in God's eternal thinking consistent with an eternal Plan to display His eternal Attributes it is an eternal City of whose substance the present Jerusalem is merely a shadow. The New Jerusalem is not built of masonry but of God's Attributes of love expressed in the glorified flesh of the saints of all Ages. Metaphorical "lively stones" selected out of every nation, tribe and tongue of Adam's race throughout the world and shaped over 6,000 years through the free will offering of their lives dead to worldly lusts and desires as a service to God and His Word for their hour. This City is Himself manifest in His elect. It is the Lamb's Book of Life, the fruit of the resurrected Messiah (Isaiah 53:8-12; 65:23).

Although the Lord wrote an unchanging specification for each individual stone, its qualities, function and position in the City, its wall, streets, river and parkland, no stone was arbitrarily hand-picked or worked from a rough ashlar into due form. Each stone was selected, worked into due form, and polished to perfection for its unique place by the foolishness of preaching God's spoken Word that declared its purpose in His Plan; and yielded by its own choosing to conform to the Master Plan and Specification.

Over the past two thousand years each elect, precious stone was made ready and laid to rest in the field. When the last stone is perfected, God will raise up the Church Age stones in order to fulfill His promise to Abraham (Matthew 3:9) and bring the building together for the meeting in the Air. By God's grace through individual faith, each stone will perfectly fit its own peculiar position without the sound of any tool of iron, knit together in love to compliment, strengthen and edify the whole (I Kings 6:7; Ephesians 4:11-16).

When you recognize your day and it's Message, you have heard your name called from the Lamb's Book of Life. Not Sue or Melvin, but your part of the Word specifying your position in the City, and the measure of the lively stone you are predestinated to become.

New Jerusalem is the mother of every saint, the mind of God where we were conceived and foreknown because of our own choosing. This City is the creation of God where He dwells in the glorified flesh of His Family. Its King and Queen, Jesus Messiah and the New Testament saints are His living Temple before which the "saved" will worship God throughout eternity (Revelation 3:12; 7:15-17; 21:22-24). New Jerusalem will be God's only provided place of worship because the Name of the City, Jehovah-Shammah, "the Lord is there," is also the Name of their King and His Queen for we are that City. Her foundations, walls and gates, our throne and temple guards, administrators and servants, are the Old Testament saints and the 144,000 elect Israelites regenerated after the Marriage ceremony in the time of Jacob's trouble.

Israel is God's servant nation. A servant is one who obeys His master's commands. Speaking with His disciples who would become the first Christians, Jesus said, "No longer do I call you slaves or servants, for the servant does not know his master's plans; I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you" (John 15:15; 16:13). Contrast our situation with God's servants and you will see they haven't the faintest notion what God has done, or what Jesus is doing now. Grace wrought by faith from within is incomprehensible to those who know only the strong force of external law. Jesus said, "the servant or slave does not abide in the home forever: but the Son continues forever" (John 8:35). And there we see the difference between the Book of Life and the Lamb's Book of Life.

Brother Branham said, "Not one Scripture spoke of the Lord presently compiling a record of names. That is indeed so. However there is a Scripture pointing to a future compilation. It is in the eighty-seventh Psalm. This Psalm speaks of the Lord writing up the names of all those born in Zion. On no account can it be presumed that God has to wait until the end of ages or that period of time dealing with Zion in order to know who all might be born in Zion. Again, that would preclude omniscience. Surely He knows who all comprise that number. But what is it? Is it not simply the revised roll wherein God simply places in a new record those names which remained after the second resurrection and pertained to Zion?" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 285:2).

The various classes of the "saved," those non-elect whose names have remained in the Book of Life (which records the offspring of the first Adam) will be granted into eternal Life by the saints at the White Throne Judgment. These are the citizens of the nations that will populate the renewed heavens and renewed earth outside the City tithing of their increase to Zion "the mountain of the house of the Lord established in the top of the mountains, and exalted above the hills" (Psalm 87:1-7; Isaiah 4:3-4; Joel 3:17; Revelation 20:9,11-13; 21:27; Micah 4:1). On no account are these God's elect. Our names constitute the Lamb's Book of eternal Life (which records the offspring of the last Adam) whence no name can be removed.

Isaiah 60:1-5, "Arise, shine Jerusalem, for your Light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. Behold, darkness will cover the earth, and gross darkness the people of Israel: but the Lord will arise over you Jerusalem, and His glory shall be seen upon you. The Gentiles shall come to your Light, and kings to your dawning radiance. Lift up your eyes and see—all the nations are gathering themselves and coming to you; they are your sons coming from afar, and your daughters carried on the hip. When you see your eyes will light up with joy, your heart shall thrill and rejoice; because the abundance of the sea shall be turned to you, the wealth of the Gentiles shall come to you".

Almost 100 years before Nebuchadnezzar invaded Jerusalem, Isaiah saw a vision of the Sun of righteousness rising over New Jerusalem as the Shekinah of the Logos that once manifest in the flesh of Messiah, then preached "beginning in Jerusalem" (Luke 24:47). This is the City Abraham sought. Throughout eternity this "appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord" will overshadow heavenly Jerusalem manifest on Earth so that "the City has no need of the Sun or the Moon to shine on it, because the God's glory illumines it and its Lamp is the Lamb" (Revelation 21:23).

In a mixed metaphor the prophet overlays present, earthly shadows with the substance of God's heavenly Plan realized on Earth. As he explains, the Light of God in Christ would first dawn over natural Jerusalem when Israel was apostate, and the yet unenlightened Gentile world in spiritual darkness. John 1:11, "He came to His own race, but His own received Him not for gross [Talmudic] darkness covered the people of Israel".

When the tribe of Benjamin returned from the Captivity in Babylon they found their own land had been stolen by the Edomites during their absence, and they were forced to relocate. In 109BC John Hyrcanus forcibly assimilated the Edomites into the Israelite population, culture and religion of Judea, hence the enmity between Jews (or residents of Judea) and Israel's kinsman Redeemer (Josephus, Antiquities, XIII, 9:1; XV, 7:9; Genesis 3:15). So Jesus did not live among the Jews, who sought to kill him as an infant, but in Galilee of the Gentiles with the Benjaminites, the remnant of Napthalim and Zebulon whose people had been deported by the Assyrians, among Phoenicians, and the Gentiles transported into that land.

Speaking of his neighbors, Jesus said, "the people who sat in darkness have seen a great Light; and for them who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned" (Matthew 4:12-17). The spiritual condition of the people has worsened since Isaiah 9:1-2 was written, and the defeated Israelites who then "walked" are now represented passively "sitting" in darkness. But Light unfolded from the Law and the testimony of the prophets (Isaiah 8:20) into a great Light, becoming clearer and brighter and more widely extended (Isaiah 9:1-7), as the Prince of Peace born of the house of David ministered chiefly on the border land of this depressed part of Israel, near the Gentiles rather than in Jerusalem. For Jesus was both "the Light to lighten the Gentiles and the Glory of His people Israel".

"The common people heard him gladly." Galilee's very debasement made it feel its need of a Savior, a feeling unknown to the self-righteous Jews even 2,000 years later (Matthew 9:10-13). In my experience it is generally more fruitful to minister among the less privileged and well-to-do whose needs cannot be met by natural means than among the highly educated worldly-wise who feel they have everything and can fall back upon material means.

Isaiah 9:11-16, "The Lord shall set up the adversaries . . . and they shall devour Israel with open mouth. For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still. For the people did not repent and turn to Him who smote them, nor seek the Lord of hosts. Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, the lofty palm branch and the lowly rush, suddenly, in one day (Isaiah 66:8). The ancient and honorable elder is the head entrusted with leadership, while the prophet who presumes leadership but teaches lies, is the tail. (Instead of leading the people forward as the head, as the vilest part of the animal he is leading them backwards). For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and those who are led of them are destroyed".

It is always the most trusted leaders who deceive a complacent people who "sit in darkness," satisfied with the second-hand religion of a kind old priest who "does their religion for them," instead of turning "to the Law and the testimony of the prophets" to personally "prove all things, hold fast that which is good." Without a hands-on personal relationship with the Word, God's Sun Light cannot warmly embrace, soften and enlighten our soul.

The darkness of a second-hand religion was well-put by Brother J. C. Philpot when he wrote withdrawing his ministry from the Church of England on March 28, 1835:

"Thus, with perhaps a few and rare exceptions, the Clergy of the Church of England, whether Orthodox or Evangelical, correspond to that description given by the Holy Ghost, Micah 3:11, "The heads thereof judge for reward, and the priests thereof teach for hire, and the prophets thereof divine for money, yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among us? None evil can come upon us." And need we wonder if, "as is the priest, so are the people?" The congregation of the High church, or Orthodox clergy, as they proudly call themselves, consists, with possibly a few exceptions, of none but open sinners, self-righteous Pharisees, and dead formalists. In this "congregation of the dead" the blind lead the blind, and all their weekly confessions, absolutions, prayers, praises, services, and sacraments as they will one day find, but one continual mockery of the blessed God, who requires of His worshipers that they "should worship Him in spirit and in truth." Of those who sit under the ministry of the Evangelical clergy, the greater part in no wise differ from "the congregation of the dead" described above, being attracted thither by the superstitious charm of the Parish Church. Of the remaining part, there may be a few seeking souls who range over these barren heaths, until fairly driven from them by starvation, or brought off by tasting the green pastures and still waters of gospel grace under an experimental minister. The rest are mere formalists, with an evangelical creed in their heads, but without any grace in their hearts; or, if the minister be a high Calvinist, such "twice dead" doctrinal professors as never felt the plague in their hearts, never had their consciences ploughed up by the law, never loathed themselves in their own sight, and never "plunged in the ditch till their own clothes abhorred them." Humble, lowly, contrite souls, who are deeply acquainted with the workings of grace and of corruption, whose consciences have been made tender, and who have landmarks of the dealings of God with them, cannot long continue where they have fellowship with neither minister nor people. And, indeed, so opposed is the whole principle and practice of the Church of England to the work of grace upon the souls of the elect, and "to simplicity and godly sincerity," that a minister who is not a hypocrite or a formalist, must, when he has reached a certain point in Christian experience, either flee out of her or awfully sin against the convictions of his own conscience. He may remain in her as a presumptuous dead Calvinist; he may take the highest tone of doctrine, and preach Sunday after Sunday about assurance of personal salvation; but if once he describe the work of the Spirit on the soul he must, at a certain point, either come out of her or, by remaining, contentedly within her pale, manifest himself a hypocrite in experience, of all hypocrites and of all hypocrisies the most deceiving and the most awful. Can a man, for instance, who has known the work of regeneration in his own soul, and whose conscience is made tender by the blessed Spirit, go on long to lie unto God by thanking Him for regenerating infants? Can he who has been sprinkled with the blood of Christ, and been fed with His flesh, continue long to give the elements of His body and blood to the unbeliever, the self-righteous, and the ungodly? Can he who has tasted the covenant of grace, and experimentally entered into the everlasting distinction between the sheep and the goats, go on long to mock God by declaring at the grave's mouth of every departed unbeliever, swearer, and drunkard, that he is a "brother," and is "taken to be with God?" Notions in the head, however correct, doctrines, however high, a presumptuous confidence of salvation, however loud and lofty, may suffer a man thus to trifle with the living Jehovah. But a tender conscience, a godly fear, and a trembling sense of God's holiness and majesty, such as the blessed Spirit works in the soul, must sooner or later bring a man out of this awful mockery".

"From this worldly and unholy system I now secede; and blessed be the Name of God Most High, who has poured Light on my eyes to see these abominations, and given me, I trust, a small portion of that faith of Moses whereby "he was willing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season." For sooner far would I die in a workhouse, under the sweet shinings-in of the eternal Comforter, and His testimony to my conscience that I am born of God, than live and die in ease and independence, without following Jesus in that path of trial and suffering which alone leads to eternal Life".

Israel refused the Light God shone in Jerusalem: we Gentiles and our kings came to His Light. But succeeding generations fail to keep on walking in the Light God continues to unfold because they neglect to establish a personal relationship with Him, and after the initial revival is past they substitute organization and human leadership for the Headship of the Spirit, and man-made traditions eventually shut out or blind them to the Light. Such was the fate of the Church of England which rejected the Light God shone through John Wesley's Message. Such was the fate of Israel whose spiritual blindness to God's Light will persist "until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in." If only they had read to the end of Isaiah 9.

It was God Himself who came to Jerusalem (Isaiah 47:4). Isaiah 59:20-21, "The Lord will come to Zion as her Redeemer and to the Israelite converts of apostasy. And this is My promise to these born-again converts, says the Lord; My Holy Spirit that is upon You (Messiah as their progenitor and ideal representative of Israel's descendants), and My Words which I have put in Your mouth shall not depart from Your mouth nor from the mouth of Your children, nor from the mouth of Your grandchildren, says the Lord, henceforth forever." For they are to be both receivers of truth through eyes and ears and testifiers of it through their mouth like Christ's end-time Bride (Revelation 10:8-11).

Isaiah 60 is not speaking of Jerusalem's restoration, of Israel's return from Babylonian captivity or from worldwide dispersion, but of the enlargement of Jerusalem in order to receive the Gentile converts to the Light first risen in that city 2,000 years ago. It is the fulfillment of Genesis 9:27, and the children brought to Zion are not those she has lost but the full-grown children she has never known. This is the Millennium.

According to Isaiah 49:17-23 the countless children are the Body of Christ consisting primarily of Gentiles converted to the Lord whilst Zion was forsaken and repudiated by her husband and put away as punishment with a view to correction, but not divorced. These children are Spiritual Israel, saints who received the "Spirit" of the prophecies natural Israel refused for the "letter" without the Spirit, and death (53:10).

In Isaiah 49:21-23, Zion ponders in her heart, "Who has born me these? I was bereaved and barren, exiled and put away; who has raised these grown-up children for me? Behold, I was left alone by my Husband; whence have these come?"

"Thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will lift up My hand to the Gentiles, and raise My standard to the peoples: and they shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. And kings shall be your nursing fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers: they shall bow down to you with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of your feet; and you shall know that I am the Lord: for they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me".

Jerusalem or Zion is forsaken of God, her Husband, from the time of the Desolations which began in 589BC to the Millennium. That is, throughout "the times of the Gentiles" as confirmed by Ezekiel 10:18; 43:2; Revelation 7:2. Only then will she learn that it was "Jerusalem that is above" that bore her children for her while she was childless; children begotten by the spoken Word of God.

These are not children Jerusalem had lost but children she had never known before. If they were the returning Israelites she would have recognized them, but they are Gentile Spiritual Israelites. In Revelation 7:1-8 the Israelite apostle John quickly recognized each of 144,000 elect Israelites by their tribal dress, but when he saw the Bride of all seven Church Ages in Revelation 7:9-17, which was the same vision seen by Zion, he too was unable to identify the Gentile saints drawn from every nation, tribe and tongue, and was equally confused by their strange dress and appearance as was Zion.

Through twenty centuries Gentile kings and queens have nurtured heavenly Zion's unknown children in love and reverence, and with their wealth and power watched over them with protective carefulness and encouraged the propagation of the faith.

Isaiah 54:1-3, "Sing, O barren woman, you who did not bear; break forth into a loud and joyful song, Jerusalem, you who did not travail with child: for more are the children of the deserted woman than the children of she who has a husband, says the Lord. Enlarge the place of your tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of your habitations: spare not, lengthen your tent cords, and strengthen your stakes; for you shall break forth on the right hand and on the left; and your seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited".

The elect of every nation tribe and tongue will find Life under the covering of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. As Brother Branham explained, God will assemble this tent or tabernacle on earth during the first resurrection and complete the structure of the tent vision in the body change of the living saints after the manifestation of the Sons of God. Malachi 4:2, "For you who fear My Name the Sun of righteousness will arise with healing in his beams; and you will go forth and leap as calves from the stall."

The strengthening of Zion's tent stakes indicates the greatly enlarged dimensions of God's tabernacle since the middle wall of partition between Israelite and Gentile was broken down in Christ, and also the fact that it is no longer to be the tent of a sojourner. When Ezekiel described the Ark and the four living creatures, they were journeying on wheels (Ezekiel 1). John sees the same vision after the last of the PART-Word saints is redeemed at the close of the Laodicean Church Age when redemption is over. Christ's end-time Bride and the 144,000 elect Israelites were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary because we were predestinated to be reborn by the fullness of the Word, so we have no need of a Mediator for ignorance of the Word. In Revelation 4 and 5 the Ark is stationary, having reached its heavenly destination, and its traveling days are over. Christ's Mediation is fulfilled and the Mercy Seat is now a Judgment Seat surrounded by the redeemed elect of all ages.

"The seed of Zion shall inherit the Gentiles" (Isaiah 54:3; 49:6 ,12, 18 sqq). New Jerusalem shall possess all nations, and not merely control their lands by expelling the inhabitants by force and law, but she will take possession of the inhabitants themselves by grace through faith and the love of God in Christ, the Seed of Abraham. His Spiritual offspring, the elect of every nation, tribe and tongue born of the "heavenly Jerusalem" shall rule the renewed earth, for He is King of kings, and Lord or lords. The seed of Zion are Abraham's seed by the baptism with the Holy Ghost (Galatians 3:29), not the seed of sinful men conceived in Jerusalem now in bondage to the Law and Talmudic loopholes that enable hypocrites to claim the Law whilst evading its requirements.

Galatians 4:22-31, "It is written that Abraham had two sons, one by a slave and one by a free woman. But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, while the son of the freewoman was born only after God had specifically promised he would come. Now this is an allegory: these women indicate two covenants, one from Mount Sinai bearing children into slavery under the curse of the Law, which is Hagar. It corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her children. But our mother-city is the heavenly Jerusalem, which is free and no slave to Jewish laws."

"This is what Isaiah meant when he prophesied, Rejoice, O childless woman; break forth into loud and joyful song, Jerusalem, you who never before bore a child: for I am going to give you many children—more children than the slave wife has."

"Now you and I, dear Brothers and Sisters, like Isaac, are children of God's promise to Abraham—only we were born the second time of the Spoken Word. So we who are born of the Holy Spirit are persecuted now by Jewish Supremacists who would bring us under bondage to their fraudulent Noahide laws, their false Holocaust religion whereby they conspire to supplant the atonement of Yeshua Ha Maschiach, God's sinless kinsman Redeemer, and traditions of the Talmud which make the Law of Moses and the testimony of God's vindicated prophets of no effect. True Spiritual Israel is today persecuted by fleshly Jewish impersonators as Isaac was persecuted by Ishmael".

"But the Scriptures say that God instructed Abraham to cast out the slave and her son: for the son of the slave shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman. So, brethren, we are not slave children obligated to the Jewish laws, but children of the free woman, and acceptable to God being Abraham's seed by our faith".

Thus God cast out the nation of Israel until the last of His Gentile saints is born of "Jerusalem that is Above and free from the Law." His dealings with us end with the apostasy of the Gentile denominations as His dealings with Israel terminated in the apostasy of their denominations. But Christ has come back to earth "as a thief in the night" in WORD form through a prophetic that has "restored the apostolic faith, finished the mystery of God, and proclaimed the day of vengeance of our God." Christ will return to Israel in like manner through the ministry of two Hebrew prophets to fulfill the six-fold purpose of Gabriel's instructions and complete Daniel's Seventieth Week.

Quoting Jesus for Hebrew believers, Matthew 24:27 says, "As the lightning flashes from the East and shines to the West, so will the [parousia] Coming of the Son of Man be." The Light of the Word that arose over earthly Jerusalem in the East has traveled around the Earth and was restored in the West through the ministry of William Branham, the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6. Zechariah 14:6-7 foretold, "It shall come to pass in that hypocritical day of uncertainty, that the Light (of faith or understanding in God's unchanging Word) shall not be clear, nor dark: 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". THUS SAITH THE LORD will lead Christ's elect on the path to Glory.

We live in the evening time of God's grace and of the Gentile dispensation. Spiritual darkness covers the Earth and gross Spiritual darkness still covers the people of natural Israel. After the Lord has gathered Zion's unrecognized children, countless as the stars of heaven or the sand of the sea shore (Genesis 22:17), the Light that appeared to Moses in the burning bush, led the children of Israel through the wilderness, was nailed to Calvary's cruel cross, and will yet overshadow the New Jerusalem, shall be confirmed to Israel a second time by their Hebrew prophets and received by 144,000 elect Israelites in Jerusalem. eb412.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we appreciate your fellowship in Christ.

As people slowly return to their work-a-day grind after the Christmas and New Year holidays, Satan's callous dupes—each a church-going "Christian"—raise the tempo of the drums of war to mask news of their corruption. Hollywood has released a fresh tape of the late Mr. Osama bin Laden whose funeral was reported in a Pakistan Newspaper several years ago. It appears the Establishment has planned another "attack" on US soil.

These words come to mind:

Just a little longer and the trump of God shall sound,
Just a little longer, and we'll all be Glory bound;
Look away to heaven, your redemption draws nigh.
Just a little longer and we'll meet Him in the Sky.

Many Ashkenazi Jews from Four Women

New York, January 13, 2006– Some 3.5 million of today's Ashkenazi Jews– about 40 percent of the total Ashkenazi population– are descended from just four women, a genetic study indicates. Those women apparently lived somewhere in Europe within the last 2,000 years, but not necessarily in the same place or even the same century . . .

Each woman left a genetic signature that shows up in their descendants today . . . Together, their four signatures appear in about 40 percent of Ashkenazi Jews, while being virtually absent in non-Jews and found only rarely in Jews of non-Ashkenazi origin, the researchers said. They said the total Ashkenazi population is estimated at around 8 million people. The estimated world Jewish population is about 13 million. Full story: news.yahoo.com

Comment: If these Jewish experts were guided by the Talmud one would surmise that these breathless by night women were hairdressers by day (Shabbath 104b footnote #2, biblebelievers.org.au).

"It is this Kind of Disrespect . . ."

January 12, 2006– "Last weekend an American special task force unit raided my house. It was precisely the kind of terrifying experience I have had described to me over and over again by Iraqis I have interviewed in the past two-and-a-half years. My wife, Zina, described it as like something out of a Hollywood action movie.

It began at half past midnight on Saturday when explosives blew apart the three entrances to my house. We thought we had been caught in a bombing, but then a rifle sneaked round our bedroom door and shot a couple of bullets blindly; suddenly our room was filled with the wild sounds of US soldiers.

Jailed for 30 years for criticizing 'Free' Iraq

January 11, 2006– Kamal Sayid Qadir wrote an article criticizing the US backed government in Iraqi Kurdistan and now he has been jailed for 30 years. If a writer was jailed for 30 years for exposing government corruption in Iran or Syria, there would be outrage in the US and Britain and demands for military strikes. But when that happens in Iraq there is silence.

George Bush and Tony Blair constantly boast that they have brought freedom and democracy to Iraq. Full story: uruknet.com

The Dollar may fall this March

January 14, 2006– America's foreign debt currently standing at $8,184 trillion will hit the debt ceiling as early as February-March 2006. The United States is heading to financial crisis at top speed. That is correct; America will default on its foreign debt sooner or later if the actual trends remain unchanged. Consequently, the whole dollar-based world (including savings in US currency) may crumble. . .

"We will run out of funds for financing the government operations by mid-March at the latest even if the US Department of the Treasury takes all possible legal measures to keep the foreign debt ceiling from going up" . . . Full story: english.pravda.ru

Comment: On March 23, 2006, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System will cease publication of the M3 monetary aggregate. M3 is the estimate of the total money supply. We wonder what is going on. Why aren't people paying attention to all that is being hidden from us? They are telling us what is going on before it happens and then we allow it to happen anyway. Must be the fall of Rome in the USA . . . (See Newsletter 404).

Bush has Crossed the Rubicon

January 16, 2006– Dictatorships seldom appear full-fledged but emerge piecemeal. When Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon with one Roman legion he broke the tradition that protected the civilian government from victorious generals and launched the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. Fearing that Caesar would become a king, the Senate assassinated him. From the civil wars that followed, Caesar's grandnephew Octavian emerged as the first Roman emperor, Caesar Augustus . . .

There is today no constitutional party. Both political parties, most constitutional lawyers, and the bar associations are willing to set aside the Constitution whenever it interferes with their agendas. Americans have forgotten the prerequisites for freedom, and those pursuing power have forgotten what it means when it falls into other hands. Americans are very close to losing their constitutional system and civil liberties. It is paradoxical that American democracy is the likely casualty of a "war on terror" that is being justified in the name of the expansion of democracy.

Come, let Us return to the Lord

Hosea 6:1-3, "Come, let us return to the Lord: for He has torn us, and He will heal us; He has smitten, and He will bind us up. After two days He will revive us: in the third day He will raise us up that we may once more live before Him. Let us know, let us press on to know the Lord: He will respond to us as surely as the morning sunrise; and He will come to us as the rain, as the latter and former rain that water the earth".

Hosea wrote this prophecy around 780BC when Israel and Judah were steeped in idolatry: Jehovah had become unknown, a strange God to the idolatrous people. And Judah would be blinded to the Good News of Messiah by rabbinical hubris based on the Talmud contrary to the Law and the prophets. God would tear both kingdoms apart so that we Gentiles might receive the blessing of Abraham's grace covenant they had refused.

The aim and consequence of the divine judgment was to cause the people to seek the Lord in hopes of a restoration to His favor, but their sin was as deep-seated and enduring as when Moses first prophesied this judgment and healing of God:

Deuteronomy 32:17-21, 39, "They sacrificed to demons which were no gods; to gods they knew not, newcomers lately arrived were they, before whom your fathers had never stood in awe. You were unmindful of the Rock that begot you, and you forgot the God who gave you being. When the Lord saw it, He detested them, because of the provocation of his sons and daughters. And He said, I will hide My face from them, and see what their end will be, for they are a perverse class of men, children in whom is no faithfulness. They have moved me to jealousy with what is no god; they have provoked me to anger with their idols: and I will stir them to jealousy with those who are no people (us Gentiles); I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. . . See now that I, even I, am He, and there is no God beside Me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of My hand".

Quoting Moses, David and Isaiah in Romans 10:18-21, Paul asked, "Has Israel not heard God's Word? Indeed they have, for David prophesied, "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world" (Psalm 19:4). Again I ask did not Israel understand? First Moses said, "I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, and with a foolish nation I will anger you." Then Isaiah spoke more boldly, prophesying, "I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown Myself to those who did not ask for Me." But of Israel he said, "All day long I have held out My hands to a disobedient and rebellious people" (Isaiah 65:1-2).

On the surface the definite limits "two days" and "in the third day" hold out the prospect of the speedy and sure revival of Israel. But their sin is as deep-seated and enduring today as it was when Moses first prophesied this divine judgment and healing of God. So "the third day" would not be a Monday or a Tuesday, anymore than "the Lord's Day" is a Saturday or a Sunday, but sometime in the third millennium AD, for a day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as a day. We are well into the third day since Hosea wrote, and as Newsletter 411 expounded, the nation state of Israel has been restored in unbelief and Jerusalem recaptured. God is waiting on you and me to have the Token on display, and for the last member of His end-time Bride to recognize her part and position in the Body. Then He will return to Israel and Israel to Him.

Hosea 4:6, "Israel is destroyed for lack of the knowledge of God: because you have despised knowing Me, I will also despise and reject the nation from being a kingdom of priests to Me. Since you have forgotten the Law of your God whereby you could have gained knowledge of Me, I will also forget your children".

Brother Branham cautioned, "No true believer is any stronger and spiritually healthy and alive than his knowledge of and adherence to the pure Word of God, as seen by multitudes of examples in the Old Testament" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 113:1).

Hosea's prophecy of revival and a transparently sinless national life before God had in view more than the recovery of Israel from their future exile, or Judah from her forthcoming captivity. As disclosed by the vision of Ezekiel 37:1-14, Israel will be spiritually awakened by her experiential knowledge of Messiah, God's ideal Israel (Isaiah 49:3), and regenerated to eternal Life in the third day. For the natural types the spiritual (Matthew 2:15; Hosea 11:1; I Corinthians 15:4). Isaiah 53:10, "Israel shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand".
Body of Christ
Our former or teaching rain is Brother Branham's Message that restores the children of God to the faith once delivered to our apostolic fathers, finishes the mystery of God, and brings us to maturity "in the unity of the faith" as the Capstone of the pyramid of the stature of the perfect Man, for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7; Ephesians 4:13-16; Romans 8:19; I Corinthians 15:49-54).

Our latter or harvest rain will fall at the Seventh Trump after the end of the Gentile dispensation. This will herald a time of global natural catastrophes unprecedented since the Flood, and a brief period of public repudiation and persecution of Christ's Bride. Its purpose is to invest the sleeping saints with faith to change in the atoms by placing us who are alive and remain in a situation of intense desperation but with the assurance God will provide our necessities during "the squeeze" by the "third pull," elevating our faith to attain translation grace (Romans 8:19).

Body of ChristOur latter rain will forerun Israel's former rain that will anoint their two prophets. God will restore Israel under the Sixth Seal through justification, sanctification, the baptism with the Holy Ghost, and perfection after they die to man-made religion as He restored Christ's end-time Bride to the fullness of the Word under the Fourth and Seventh Seals (I Corinthians 13:10). Joel 2:23-27 agrees indicating that their former rain will reconfirm the Message of John the Baptist and Jesus or "seal up the vision and prophecy" as foretold in Daniel 9:24. Their latter rain will fall at the public ascension of the two Hebrew prophets, regenerating their souls—"the most holy place" where Christ and His Bride will be anointed with the joy of the Lord; regenerated with boldness to speak "the truth in love" they will "love not their lives unto the death" (Matthew 27:25; Revelation 6:11; 11:7-13; 12:11).

Mount TransfigurationIn Matthew 17 Jesus climbed Mount Transfiguration accompanied by three disciples as earthly witnesses. Peter represented faith, James hope, and John charity, the three greatest gifts (I Corinthians 13:13). In a vision they saw Jesus Messiah transfigured into His glorified form, and with Him two other heavenly witnesses, Moses and Elijah, signifying that through His atonement heaven and earth will embrace one another in agreement as taught in I John 5:1-15.

Moses represented the resurrected saints and Elijah represents we who will be changed in the atoms, while Peter, James, and John represented the 144,000 elect remnant of Israel receiving their revelation of Christ's 'parousia' Coming, saying within their heart, "Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord . . . singing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are Your works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are Your ways, You King of saints. Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your Name? For only You are holy: for all nations shall come and worship before You; for Your judgments are made manifest" (Matthew 23:39; Revelation 15:4-5).

In other words: "Your judgments upon Israel for refusing to receive Messiah's atonement and new birth have been made manifest under the Seven Trumpet judgments expounded by the ministry of the two witnesses of Zechariah 4, Matthew 24:31 and Revelation 11, the antitype of the Feast of Trumpets by which You have gathered the remnant of Israel a second time. Here after the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week we stand on the sea of glass washed in the blood of the Lamb honouring and glorifying You in the reflection of the truth of Your holy Word, having believed in You and surrendered our lives in martyrdom by Rome and renegade Jews" (Revelation 14:1-5, 12– 15:4; Isaiah 11:11). The regeneration of the 144,000 will be the birth of the nation in one day (Isaiah 10:17; 30:26; 66:8; Zechariah 3:9-10).

Isaiah 49:1-23 shows Zion forsaken by God her Husband from the time of the Desolations which began with the destruction of the Temple in 589BC to the consummation. That is, throughout "the times of the Gentiles" (as confirmed by Ezekiel 10:18; 43:2, and Revelation 7:2). When Zion sees Christ's glorified Gentile Bride in Isaiah 49:21-23, she ponders in her heart, "Who has born me these? I was bereaved and barren, exiled and put away; who has raised these grown-up children for me? Behold, I was left alone by my Husband; whence have these come?"

"Thus saith the Lord: Behold, I will beckon to the Gentiles, and raise My standard to the peoples: and they shall bring your Gentile sons in their arms, and your Gentile daughters shall be carried upon their shoulders. And kings shall be your foster fathers, and their queens your nursing mothers: they shall bow down to you with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of your feet; and you shall know that I am the Lord: for they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me".

Church Ages and MessengersZion's sons and daughters are predominately not descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and most definitely not non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews who are Satan's dupes, but Spiritual Israel—ten thousand times ten thousand and thousand thousands of Gentile converts to her rejected Messiah born for her by Jerusalem that is Above, begotten and raised by the spoken Word of God (Genesis 9:27; Isaiah 53:10; 54:1; 60:3).

Throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end-time Bride for the Bible was sealed until the last of the PART-Word or Church Age saints was born-again (Daniel 12:4, 9; Revelation 10:4). So the angel who guides John through the visions can only be William Branham (1909-1965) the seventh angel; the one man to whom Jesus revealed the Seven Seals. In chapter 7 which is in parenthesis, John (as an Israelite himself) recognizes Israel's elect remnant gathered back to the Land of the Covenant under the Sixth Seal of the Great Tribulation (Revelation 6:12-17) and sealed by the revelation of their Seven Trumpet mysteries which reveal their King, Jesus and His Gentile Queen. Like their non-elect fellow servants martyred under the Fifth Seal (Revelation 6:11) the 144,000 will martyred under the Sixth Seal before the four winds of war and strife bring Armageddon and the consummation of life.

In Revelation 7:9-17 John was nonplused when he saw Christ's glorified Bride of all Ages as a countless multitude drawn out of all nations clothed in white and praising the Lamb for their salvation. Like forsaken Zion when she saw the vision eight hundred beforehand, he could not recognize these saints and enquires of one of the twenty-four elders who explains, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb, which is why they are here before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple: and He who sits on the throne shall spread His tent over them (Genesis 9:27). They will nevermore hunger neither thirst, nor will the sun or any scorching heat fall upon them. For the Lamb who is in the center of the throne shall feed them, and will be their shepherd and He will lead them to springs of living Water: and God will wipe away all tears from their eyes".

The Bride of Christ serves and follows her Husband wherever He goes. The great tribulation through which we have lived commenced when Titus besieged and destroyed Jerusalem in AD70 and continued through the Gentile dispensation as Imperial Rome became Papal Rome. After the resurrection and translation of Messiah's Bride it will become "Jacob's trouble" when Israel's elect will be separated from Esau's self-styled Jews by the revelation of the Seven Trumpets, and the foolish virgin distinguished from the false church by the revelation of the Seven Vials and the various classes of the "saved" purged and martyred (Matthew 5:12; 24:21-31; John 15:18-26; Acts 5:40-42; Revelation 1:9).

From Genesis to Revelation the saints of God have experienced tribulation and suffered persecution—chiefly at the hands of the Judaeo-Roman church and those who call themselves "Jews" today (Genesis 3:15; Matthew 23:33-36; Revelation 2:9; 3:9). Of whom Jesus said, "I know you are Abraham's seed [but you are not the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob]; and seek to kill Me because My Word has no place in you . . ." (John 8:37-44).

Revelation 1:10, "I (insert your name little Bride as John represents YOU) was in the Spirit on the Lord's Day, and heard behind me a great Voice like a Trumpet." The Bible was sealed to the time of the end and revealed to Christ's end-time Bride by the ministry of William Branham, the angel to the Laodicean Church Age (Revelation 1:1; 3:14; 10:4, 7; Daniel 12:4, 9). Hereby we know that all seven Church Ages ended along with Christ's Office as Mediator, and that "the time of the end" began in March, 1963 when Christ fulfilled Revelation 4, 5, and 10:1-7.

In the flesh John was in man's day imprisoned on Patmos Island where he would find solitude conducive to receiving and collating the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ into the Book we call The Revelation of Jesus Christ. However his soul was caught up in the Spirit of revelation into the yet future Day of the Lord, which will be signaled by the Seventh Trump of Isaiah 27:13, I Thessalonians 4:16, I Corinthians 15:52, Revelation 11:15, marked by earthquakes that will sink Los Angeles and split the Mount of Olives (Revelation 6:12; 11:19; 16; 19; Isaiah 29:6; Zechariah 14:4).

John heard the Great Trumpet blast behind him, signifying that in the vision dimension it had sounded in the past; it was Israel's Seventh Trumpet signaling the close of man's day, the commencement of the Day of the Lord with the first resurrection, manifestation of the Sons of God and translation preceding Daniel's Seventieth Week. John was caught up into a series of visions over a two year period from AD95-96. In the flesh he was on the Isle of Patmos, but in the Spirit he was caught up into the Day of the Lord which is yet future. The Day of the Lord is not Saturday, Sunday or any other day of the week but a future dispensation commencing with the end of the Gentile dispensation (Isaiah 13:6-18; Jeremiah 46:10; Joel 2; Acts 2:20; I Thessalonians 5:2). As God's hand was upon Daniel and Ezekiel, it was upon John—YOU and ME, secure in the hands of the Lord seeing the same vision as John who represented us because we are at one with the Message seven stars in His right hand (Revelation 1:17, 20; Ezekiel 37:1; Daniel 10:10).

We are inviolate, predestinated never to see death in the flesh but to change in the atoms. In the coming persecution Satan and his children will be unable to harm one hair of our head. John, our representative throughout the Book of Revelation and the sole member of the early apostles who died a natural death, is our example. Like multitudes of others, John suffered imprisonment for the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. When he was arrested, they tried in vain to kill him by boiling him in oil for twenty-four hours. When this caused him no harm the enraged but powerless officials sentenced him to Patmos as a witch. But God was with him, and he was spared to leave the island and return to Ephesus and pastor his Church until the time of his death.

Brother Branham said, "The third pull . . . will not be used in a great way, until this Council begins to tighten up. And . . . when the squeeze comes down, then you'll see what you have seen temporarily, be manifested in the fullness of its power . . . this will be the thing that will start the rapturing faith for the going away."

"There's coming a time in this nation, to where this nation is going to exercise all the power that the beast had before (which was pagan Rome, when it become papal Rome. See?) that this nation will do that. Revelations 13 plainly explains it. . . Roman denomination, a marked Protestant denomination, an image to the beast, making a power that'll force all Protestants like a union. You'll have to be into this Council of Churches, or you won't be able to have fellowship . . . Well, it's practically that way now. You can't go to a church and preach, 'less you have a fellowship card or some identification."

"It's tightening; and then when that time comes, and the press comes to a place to where you're pressed out, then watch . . . watch the third pull then. It'll be absolutely to the total lost, but it will be for the Bride and the Church. . . I do believe that we are so close, that I would never die with old age. Yet at fifty-four years old, I'd never die with old age until He's here. See? Unless I am shot, killed, or something, or other, some way killed; just old age wouldn't kill me, until He's come" (Look Away to Jesus, p. 5:39-51).

Ezekiel was caught up in the same Spirit into a vision in the day of the Lord to see how God would awaken and redeem natural Israel, slain by Satan and spiritually dead but unburied for over 2,520 years and symbolized by an open valley full of very dry bones. Ezekiel 37:11, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts".

God speaks by His prophet (typing Israel's two witnesses) to quicken Israel's bones from death in sin and trespasses; and commands the spiritually dead to hear, lift their eyes to the Cross for illumination, repent, sanctify, and seek newness of Life (Romans 4:17; Ephesians 2:1; 5:14).

One of the most important revelations is contained in I John 1:7 which I shall paraphrase, "Unless our lives are manifesting the present Truth—what Jesus is fulfilling now, we are not and cannot come under the Blood [which is to be born-again], or even fellowship in the Spirit with those who are Christians." The saints predestinated to each of the nine dispensations within the Gentile dispensation were born-again by becoming written epistles of the revealed Word spoken by the "angel" to their Age. Revelation 2– 3, "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to bless the elect Church and rebuke the carnal Churches".

Ezekiel knew "faith comes by hearing and understanding the revealed Word of God" (Romans 10:17). When God asked him, "Prophet, can these bones live"? Ezekiel did not speculate but inquired after THUS SAITH THE LORD. We found the same Spirit in John (Revelation 7:14). When Ezekiel prophesied according to the Words of the Lord there was a rattling noise as the bones came together, not from the Captivity and Desolations, and not the mainly non-Semitic impostors that have stolen and occupied Palestine from 1948 to the present day, for Ezekiel is prophesying of the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who will not return to the Land of the Covenant until the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11-16; 13:14; 27:12-13; 49:17; 65:9-10; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:3, 8; 31:8; Ezekiel 28:24-31; 36:24; 37:14-22; 39:27-28; Hosea 6:1-3; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:9-12; Matthew 24:29-31, etc).

When the sinews, flesh and skin, devoured by Satan typed by the palmerworm, locust, cankerworm and caterpillar of four Gentile world Empires is restored to Israel after the end of the Gentile dispensation, justified and sanctified, she will remain unconverted and dead before God until she receives the breath of Life by the Spirit of the Lord after the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Matthew 24:31; Revelation 7:1-8; Ezekiel 37:1-14; Daniel 9:27).

The captivity and separation of Israel from her land, announced as the last, most severe punishment (Ezekiel 6), is, according to the Law to be conceived as the death of the nation, for the nation is related to its land as the individual soul is to its body. The exiles considered themselves dead men because so long as they are outside the Land they are unable to assemble in Jerusalem for the three compulsory annual feasts, and without atonement for sins; so the faithful regarded the lands of their captivity and dispersion as "graves." Thus the restoration of Israel to favor with God at the close of our dispensation, and the regeneration of the 144,000 will be as "life from the dead" (Romans 11:15). Sadly, most of the captives paid only lip service to the Covenant and did not return from Babylon. But the Old Covenant is without effect outside the Land. Today most Israelites of the twelve tribes remain in the Muslim lands of exile while so-called Jews who pay lip service to the Law, remain in Europe and the USA, from which neither they nor any Israelite will escape. I surmise that as wicked Haman was hanged on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai they will be incarcerated in FEMA camps they have prepared for Christians.

In the vision of Ezekiel 37:15-18, the prophet was told to act a pantomime before the people demonstrating how Israel will again become one nation. He was to take two staffs and write on one, "For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions" (that is, those of the ten tribes who followed the fortunes of Judah). And "for Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions." He was then to join them as one staff, which implies that the bulk of the ten tribes did not return at the restoration from Babylon, but remain distinct from Judah until their coming reunion after the Seventh Trump".

Israel's nationality in Canaan and the unity of the nation is conceived and bound up under the dominion of "David, My Servant"—King Messiah in the millennium where they will live in tribal order purified from idolatry as described in Ezekiel 48. And when the Son of David is King over a restored and redeemed Israel His Gentile Bride will be her Queen (John 10:16).

Ezekiel 37:25-26, "They shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob My servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt [that eliminates the non-Semitic Jews; those that are in Adam's race had better run to the Lord Jesus before the Gentile dispensation expires]. They and their children after them shall dwell there: and My Servant David, their Messiah, shall be their Prince forever. I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant: and I will place and multiply them, and set My sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore" (Ezekiel 34:25; Isaiah 55:3; Jeremiah 32:40).

Ezekiel 36:21-29 speaks of the regeneration of the 144,000 under God's Covenant made in His own blood and given purely by grace through faith for His Name's sake, which Israel have profaned among the heathen wherever they have been to the present day. This prophecy will be gloriously fulfilled in the elect sons of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as it is in the elect Church. John 1:14, "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt or tabernacled among us . . . I will be with you, even in you, to the end of the world".

Revelation 21:3, "I heard a great Voice from the throne saying, Behold, the dwelling place [tabernacle or temple] of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them".

Ezekiel 37:27-28, "My [tabernacle, temple, or] dwelling place shall be over them: and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. Then the nations shall know that I the Lord sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary is in the midst of them for evermore." God's dwelling place is in the heart of all born-again followers of Jesus Messiah (I Corinthians 6:16). eb413.htm

Second Coming of Christ

Bible Believers' Newsletter 414

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

One of the Brothers observed that many in Message circles imitate Brother Branham, "wearing the same funny hat, hunting, and reading a Scofield Bible." Impersonators like cultists imitate the external without studying to understand the inside Life by discerning what the Prophet meant from what he said. He cautioned against receiving the spirit of a man and imitating his speech and mannerisms rather than receiving the Holy Spirit with the Token of Christ's Life.

The Brother continued, "I know he disagreed with most of Scofield's comments and can only reconcile the disturbing fact he personally used a Scofield Bible by his familiarity with its format. It is no wonder many who feed on Scofield's notations espouse his anti-Christ Zionist agenda. Perhaps to "thin out his crowd" the Lord did not have him discourage its use".

Fortunately the elect will "prove all things" and not be deceived by the disreputable Mr. Scofield or the Zionist propaganda in his Bible. I once considered buying this Bible, but was dissuaded by the subjective bias in his notes, and their possible influence in place of the Message.

We are called to follow Christ by the unchanging Word of God's holy prophets and apostles. Not by the "letter" of what was said, but by spiritual revelation of their Messages. Brother Branham's language is at times confusing, but the revelation is THUS SAITH THE LORD that may be confirmed from Genesis to Revelation

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the present Truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother,

Dial 666 for the World Wide Web

There is no "W" in Hebrew, neither are there numerals. The closest character to "W" is "V," VAH, whose numerical value is 6, so every time you connect to the World Wide Web you enter VAH-VAH-VAH, which is 666.

9/11, the Fairy Tale from Hell

The war drums have begun sounding for Iran and Syria, (and they can't even subdue Iraq). Senator Durbin's carefully crafted remarks against our military begin the process of promoting a wild-eyed, jingoistic patriotism. Time to buckle your seat belt for another "9/11"-type event intended to further whip the country into such a patriotic fervor that the reinstatement of the draft will seem an acceptable price to pay to retaliate against those Iranian terrorists who "hate our freedoms."

International Terrorism Does Not Exist

Terrorism is the weapon used in a new type of war. At the same time, international terrorism, in complicity with the media, becomes the manager of global processes. It is precisely the symbiosis between media and terror, which allows modifying international politics and the exiting reality. . .

Only secret services and their current chiefs—or those retired but still having influence inside the state organizations—have the ability to plan, organize and conduct an operation of such magnitude. Generally, secret services create, finance and control extremist organizations. Without the support of secret services, these organizations cannot exist—let alone carry out operations of such magnitude inside countries so well protected. Planning and carrying out an operation on this scale is extremely complex.

Osama bin Laden and "Al Qaeda" cannot be the organizers or the performers of the September 11 attacks. They do not have the necessary organization, resources or leaders. Thus, a team of professionals had to be created and the Arab kamikazes are just extras to mask the operation. . .

The use of the term "international terrorism" has the following goals:

Hiding the real objectives of the forces deployed all over the world in the struggle for dominance and control;

Turning the people's demands to a struggle of undefined goals against an invisible enemy. . .

To organize the interaction of all religious denominations in the world, on behalf of the stability of humanity's development, security and mutual support. Full story: rense.com

Collapse of US Economy Imminent

January 21, 2006– In its attempt to establish a world empire dominating every nation on the planet, the US has exhausted its ability to finance the expansion and the country now faces imminent financial collapse. From all indications, it looks like 2006 will spell the end for America. . .

Be aware—we stand at the threshold of total ruin—the international bankers and war profiteers care little for our lives and families—these demons worship money and all things vile and evil—they have very much to gain from war, misery, disease, famine, chaos and death (our deaths). . .

Should America (along with British and Israeli forces) launch a war against Iran, or another country, without yet paying for, or even recovering from the current losses in Iraq and elsewhere—the costs of such of an invasion will overwhelm an already crippled economy and push the US over the edge into oblivion . . .

Factoring in the aforementioned points of "preparation" engineered by US authorities, I'd say there's a stinking rat in the woodpile . . . Full story: bellaciao.org  truthout.org

Regarding Bank of America and Compass Bank Instructions

A family member from Irvine, CA (who's a branch manager at Bank of America) told us two weeks ago that her bank held a "workshop" where the last two days were dedicated to discussing their bank's new security measures. During these last two days, the workshop included members from the Homeland Security Office who instructed them on how to field calls from customers and what they are to tell them in the event of a national disaster. She said they were told how (during such an event) only agents from Homeland Security would be in charge of opening safe deposit boxes and determining what items would be given to bank customers.

At this point they were told that no weapons, cash, gold, or silver will be allowed to leave the bank—only various paperwork will be given to its owners. After discussing the matter with them at length, she and the other employees were then told not to discuss the subject with anyone.

The family member has since given her notice to quit the bank. Full story: movermike.com

Egypt says Hamas recognizes Existence of Israel

Cairo January 21, 2006– The Palestinian militant group Hamas recognizes the existence of Israel and will go along with negotiations with the Jewish state, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit said in an interview published on Saturday. Full story: nytimes.com

Comment: But of course they will, according to the late Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, US Ambassador to Israel Daniel Kurtzer, the FBI and US intelligence, former State Department officials, and numerous other sources cited in Newsletters 208, 277, 278 and 294 say, "beginning in the late 1970s, Tel Aviv gave direct and indirect financial aid and training to Hamas over a period of years." They encouraged and funded Islamic education and the development of fundamentalist zealotry as a foil to Palestinian nationalism.

George W. Bush, Zionist Double Agent, American Traitor

My investigation of the Bush-Jewish connection has been in progress for six years now. One thing I discovered is that George W. Bush is a devoted student of the Jewish Talmud, as were Marx, Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin. He is also, I am persuaded, a dedicated agent of Zionist Israel, which makes him double agent and traitor to the United States of America.

Bush has adopted the same techniques of torture, political deceit, perpetual war, and pure hatred of perceived enemies, as has the notorious Israeli spy agency, Mossad. The Mossad's motto is "By Way of Deception Thou Shalt Make War." This, not coincidentally, is also George W. Bush's motto. How very Talmudic. How very satanic. Full story: texemarrs.com

'Suicide Seeds' could spell Death of Peasant Agriculture

United Nations, January 25, 2006– The group is among organizations urging United Nations experts to recommend that governments adopt tough laws against field testing and selling Terminator technology, which refers to plants that have had their genes altered so that they render sterile seeds at harvest. Because of this trait, some activists call Terminator products 'suicide seeds.'

Developed by multinational agribusinesses and the US government, Terminator has the effect of preventing farmers from saving or replanting seeds from one growing season to the next. Full story: news.yahoo.com

The Coming God

We learned from Ezekiel 37 and Hosea 4:6 that Israel was perishing spiritually and suffering physically through their "lack of the knowledge" of God. Their rabbis knew by heart the dead letter of the Law and the testimony of the prophets but without the Spirit they knew not God. The nonpareil of theological learning without faith, they killed the Prince of Peace Who is the Logos manifest in virgin-born flesh, because His faith exposed the contemptuous affront of their man-made dogma.

Since the assimilation of so-called Jews over almost three thousand years, the pure blood of Israel has experienced new depths of Spiritual ignorance. Under their influence and the god of this evil age, Gentile nations once raised out of heathenism to know the God of Israel, their Redeemer, are now perishing in a careless, sensual ignorance, and willful abandonment of the knowledge of God, "and professing themselves to be wise, have became fools" (Romans 1:16-32; Revelation 3:17-20).

At some time during the tribulation when the various classes of the "saved" will realize that the first resurrection and translation have passed. They will understand that to maintain their name on the Book of Life it will be necessary for them to surrender their life in martyrdom, and mourn their lack of diligence. And when Israel's elect recognize the Jesus whom their fathers killed with wicked hands is God's Messiah, they will mourn their Day of Atonement as Moses foretold (Leviticus 23:26-32). Meanwhile a more numerous class will mourn the loss of their commercial and worldly interests, and curse God to His face.

Every one of us must weep for his sins; the time for true repentance and holy mourning is when we hear His Voice—before the dispensation change. Today, if you should hear His Voice, harden not your heart like Esau, Pharaoh and the Israelites in the wilderness, who came to the time of no more repentance. Do not hide your sin, but know as you are known. Repent! Place your burden on the Lord, and do so now!

The intensity with which the City of London is provoking Iran, her innocent Muslim brothers and Russia to fulfill Ezekiel 38-39, and the impending bankruptcy of the United States which reached her place of no more national repentance in 1957, indicate the prospect that this will take place in the coming months. If you have heard God's Voice, when will you mourn for your sins and pray, if not as Paul taught, "Today"?

Hebrews 3:12-14; 4:1-11, "Take care of your own heart, brethren, lest you find that it, too, is evil and unbelieving, leading you away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. For only if we maintain our original assurance firmly to the end are we sharers in Christ . . ."

"Let us therefore be on our guard, so that while the promise of entering into God's rest still holds good, none of us may be found to be delinquent. For the gospel was preached to us, just as it was preached to Israel under the Old Testament; but the Message they heard did not benefit them because it did not find faith in the hearers. But we who have believed do enter into rest. As He said, I have sworn in My wrath, they who did not believe will not enter into My rest, although His works were finished from the foundation of the world" (Psalm 95:11; Revelation 13:8). "For God spoke in Exodus 20:8-11 of the seventh day like this, And God rested the seventh day from all His works. And in Psalm 95:11 again regarding the unbelieving adult Israelites who refused to enter Canaan, They shall never enter into My rest" (John 6:49).

"Since therefore it remains that some must enter into the rest of God, and natural Israel who formerly heard the good news entered not because of unbelief, God limited another certain day for entering in, when David prophesied long afterward (concerning the day of Pentecost following Messiah's first Advent), Today, when you hear His Voice, do not harden your hearts (as there is another sabbath coming). But if Jesus had given them another sabbath day (when the dispensation changed from the Law to grace) God would have spoken (through David) of another day."

"Consequently there remains a sabbath of rest to the people of God; for he who has entered into the rest of God has also ceased from his own works of trying to earn salvation as God ceased from His works. Let us therefore lay aside all obstacles to faith to enter and remain in that rest, and be careful not to disbelieve God as the children of Israel did, thus failing to enter in".

There are three sabbaths. The original sabbath was the rest of God; when He had finished His work of speaking creation, God rested and watched His Word manifest into material form (Genesis 2:1-3). The second sabbath was a day given only to Israel on Mount Sinai under the curse of the Law to be observed as one nation in one place (Exodus 20:8-11; Numbers 23:9). The third sabbath was received by the Church on the day of Pentecost—when they were all with one mind and in one place they became a part of God in Christ (Acts 2:1-4; Galatians 3:7-18).

Paul explains the fact that God, after introducing a disobedient Israel into the Promised Land, spoke of a day in which His Voice would summons an obedient people into His own Rest. Paul proves that the Rest of God that has existed since the creation, the Rest man forsook, taking the whole of creation into the bondage of corruption following the Fall, is not identical with the rest proclaimed to Israel by Moses and secured for them under Joshua. He explains that this entire proceeding with the Israelites is simply for the instruction of that nation (Galatians 3:21-25) and has its fulfilment through Christ's Atonement and the new birth under the New Testament.

Israel dwelt alone in their own land separated from other nations in a common time zone where it was possible for them to observe the seventh day in which to rest their body and mortal spirit. Christ's resurrection on the eighth day gave eternal Life and eternal rest for the soul. The sabbath can only be observed in the place God has chosen (Isaiah 66:1-2). The sabbath day can only be observed in the land of Israel. Outside that land the Old Covenant is not in effect. The place of our sabbath in not in geography but in Christ, the Word for our day. God has gathered we Gentiles from the four corners of the earth and various time zones into one mind and one common place, which is the present Truth—what Jesus is doing now—our position in the unfailing Body-Word of the Son of man (I Corinthians 12:12-27). We enter and remain in our sabbath twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week (Ephesians 4:30; Hebrews 9:12); Israel could not do this, having only a shadow of the true substance we enjoy.

Jesus "magnified the Law" (Isaiah 42:21), so we who have been reconciled with the Logos do not observe certain days because when our soul came into Christ it entered eternity and the Sabbath of peace with God (II Corinthians 5:13-21; Galatians 4:1– 5:9; Colossians 2:10-17; John 14:20; 17:21). When Jesus died on Calvary, He overcame death, hell and the grave and cried, "The work of salvation is finished!" By grace through faith in the Word for our day we are joint heirs in the blessing of Abraham (I John 3:1-16; Galatians 3:14-29).

Our rest is a Sabbath for the soul. Matthew 11:28-30, "All things are delivered unto Me of My Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. Come unto Me, all you who labour (trying to "earn" your salvation by self-righteous works) and are heavy laden (with unremitted sins), and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find sabbath for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light".

In Isaiah 28:5-6 God set a prophetic date which intimates that when Ephraim lost his deceptive earthly crown Jehovah would take his place in Messiah, the ideal Israel of Isaiah 49:3, and assume Headship over His people who belong to Him. This took place in Jesus' death, burial and resurrection wherein He purchased Israel's debt of sin (Leviticus 16:20-22). Then on the day of Pentecost He became the place of eternal Sabbath for the elect remnant of Israel to whom the Lord Jesus Christ was their crown of glory by the coming of the Holy Spirit as a diadem of beauty, a spirit of judgment to His Bride who sits in judgment (I Corinthians 2:5-16; I Peter 4:17), and the strength of those standing with Him to repulse the enemy (Zechariah 4:6-7). Our sabbath and strength lie not in theology or the will worship of organized religion but in the Holy Spirit– the Rest of the apostolic saints.

In verses 7 and 8 Isaiah turns from Samaria to Jerusalem which will share in the full measure of Ephraim's threatening judgment under Shalmaneser through God's judgments on Judah under the four Gentile world powers of Daniel 2 and share His promise to the remnant "in the third day," almost 3,000 years thence (Hosea 6:1-2; Zechariah 12-14; Revelation 11).

The apostasy of the Hebrew people was a type of the apostasy of the present-day nominal church that will close the Gentile dispensation in unbelief following the example of unbelief that terminated the Hebrew dispensation (Romans 11:32).

Isaiah 28:8-13, "All the tables (upon which the slain offerings were flayed and inspected for sacrificial purity) are polluted by the vomit and filthiness of Judah's drunken priests, so that there is no place clean."

Likewise in the present apostasy, ministers smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol, women wear trousers, paint their face and cut their hair. And imitating Israel's mistake in the first exodus, unconverted liars, thieves, prostitutes, drug addicts and others attend the Lord's Table and partake communion as the unconverted mixed multitude accompanying Israel polluted their sacrifice. God told Moses, "when a stranger sojourns with you and you keep the Lord's Passover, let all his males be circumcised; then allow him to keep it as one born in the land: no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof" (Exodus 12:37-50). Thus no one uncircumcised in heart and ears or born-again should participate in the Lord's Supper, for it is death not to take it, and death to take it unworthily.

I Corinthians 11:1-34, "Let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. For he who eats and drinks unworthily, eats and drinks damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's Body [which is the Church]. For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep (i.e. they are dead). For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. . ."

"To whom shall He teach knowledge; and whom shall He make to understand doctrine?" (Like the Gentile denominations of today Israel had their childish man-made theology back then). Mature believers: those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts. For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little (from Genesis to Revelation): for with stammering lips and another tongue will God speak to this people."

On the day of Pentecost the Gospel delivered by Peter and those from the upper room released the Holy Spirit upon the remnant of Israel and Gentile proselytes who heard in their native tongues, believed and were converted. But the Jews scoffed, "These men are full of new wine," stammering childish nonsense like our temple priests (Acts 2:11-15). The names of those reprobates who refused to receive rest and comfort offered to the weary by the Word of Jehovah were instantly removed from the Book of Life, and in AD70 General Titus destroyed the city and the temple God abandoned in about 594BC as He abandoned the denominations in AD1963 (Ezekiel 10:18; Matthew 25:6; Revelation 18:4).

"To whom He said, This is the rest (prophesied by David in Psalm 95:11) wherewith you may cause the weary to rest, and this is the refreshing or new birth (Acts 3:18-26): yet they would not hear. But the Word of the Lord was spelt out for them by rote and in simplicity, precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken".

In these last days God sent Brother Branham, the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, to restore the heart of God's elect children to the apostolic faith and "finish the mystery of God" by revealing the Seven Seals that bound the Revelation of Jesus Christ who is the mystery of God revealed. Commencing with a Message titled 'God in Simplicity,' he "restored all things God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began." That is, the fullness of the Word, which is Christ. But the Gentile denominations would not listen, and fell back upon their man-made traditions under Satan's strong delusion where they were broken, and snared, and imprisoned by him.

The coming God was crucified and buried on the sixth day, the day of man. On the seventh day He preached to souls in prison who failed to repent in the days of the previous prophets, and vindicated the departed saints. On the eighth day He rose from dead and ascended on High where He cleansed the heavenly sanctuary or remitted the accumulated sins of the Old Testament saints. Then He descended and led them captive of eternal Life (Matthew 27:52-53; Ephesians 4:8-10). "The same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in their midst, and said to them, Peace be unto you" (John 20:19).

Christians have no prescribed or sabbath day for meeting and worship; but to establish order in our lives and in society we customarily meet on the eighth day, which is Sunday, in honor of the resurrection. Those who claim to be Christians yet observe a sabbath day are denying the resurrection and the coming of the Holy Ghost to redeem and renew their soul for eternity.

Here is what Brother Branham wrote regarding the Coming God:

Revelation 1:7, "Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen."

"He is coming. Jesus is coming. God is coming. The Prophet is coming. The Priest and King is coming. The all in all is coming. Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly. Amen."

"He is coming. He is coming in clouds, clouds of glory as when He was seen upon the Mount of Transfiguration, and His garments were shining as the power of God enfolded Him. And every eye shall see Him. That means this is not the Rapture. This is when He comes to take over His rightful place as World Ruler. This is when those who have pierced Him with their creeds and denominational doctrines shall mourn, and all the people shall wail in terror because of Him Who is the Word."

(Revelation 11:7-13, "When the two Hebrew prophets have finished their testimony, Lucifer, the beast that ascended out of the bottomless pit will make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them (Daniel 12:7; Revelation 12:14-17; 13:1-7; 17:8-18). And their dead bodies shall lie in derision, unburied in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. Many peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will gaze at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and no one will be allowed to bury them. There will be a worldwide holiday—people everywhere will rejoice and send one another gifts to celebrate the death of the two prophets who had tormented the inhabitants of earth. And after three and a half days the Spirit of God's own Life entered into them, and they rose to their feet; and great fear fell upon all who saw them. And the two Hebrew prophets heard a great voice from heaven saying, Come up here. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud in the sight of their enemies (Matthew 16:28– 17:9). The same hour there was a tremendous earthquake, and a tenth of Jerusalem fell, killing seven thousand: and the remnant was terrified, and gave glory to the God of heaven".

Christ is our sanctuary, all outside of Christ is the world, the great city, wherein all the martyrdoms of saints have taken place. Babylon marks her idolatry, Egypt her tyranny, Sodom her desperate corruption, Jerusalem her pretensions to sanctity on the ground of spiritual privileges, yet all the while it is the murderer of Christ in the members of His Body (Matthew 23:29-39). All of which is also true of Rome, which in agreement with the Jews, will remove her headquarters to Jerusalem and seek to destroy all true believers (Daniel 9:27; 11:45; Revelation 18:24).

By becoming the world's capital of idolatrous apostasy such as Babylon originally was, and Rome has been, Jerusalem is here called also "Sodom and Egypt" for in this trinity the three are one in perfect hostility to the one true God, His servants, and His people.

Paul regarded Jerusalem as the world city whence believers were then to depart in order to "seek a continuing City to come" (Hebrews 13:12-14). Jesus said, "All the righteous blood shed upon earth shall come upon the Jews and Jerusalem" (Matthew 23:37-38). It follows that Jerusalem will be the last capital of world apostasy and so receive the last and worst visitation of all the judgments ever inflicted on the apostate world).

"This is the revelation story of Zechariah 12:9-14. Zechariah prophesied this about 2,500 years ago. It is just about to take place."

(A clear understanding of Bible prophecy must precede its fulfilment. It is revelation that separates the sinner from the saint. Christ must take His rightful place as World Ruler in the heart of His servant nation, that is, the elect remnant of Israel who must obey their Master by faith and love, not Law and government, before He can deliver them and restore the Kingdom to Israel on earth in the Millennium.

Revelation 10:1– 11:13 is in parenthesis and describes Christ's 'parousia' Coming to we Gentiles through the ministry of Brother Branham, the prophet-messenger to the Seventh Church Age between Israel's Sixth and Seventh Trumpet Judgments, which are the "Woes" of World Wars II and III. These verses also give Christ's Bride a preview of God's dealings with Israel under the Seventh Trumpet which ends the Gentile dispensation, calls the resurrection of the sleeping saints and the manifestation of the Sons of God for the great translation and Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the Sky, then summons Israel to their Atonement under the feast of Trumpets (I Thessalonians 4:16; I Corinthians 15:42-54; Revelation 11:14).

Revelation 11:14-19, "The Second Woe (which was the Second World War) is past; behold, the Third Woe is soon to come. (Indeed it has come, only it has not yet reached the "hot" stage). And the Seventh Trumpet Angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, The kingdom of this world has become the Kingdom of our Lord, and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever. And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God, fell on their faces and worshipped God, saying, We give You thanks, Lord God Almighty, who is, and was, because You have assumed Your great power, and have begun to reign. The nations raged, and Your wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that You should give reward to Your servants the prophets, and to the saints, and all who fear Your Name, small and great; and for destroying those who are destroying the earth" (Daniel 12:1).

"And the sanctuary of God's temple in heaven was opened and the Ark of His Covenant with Israel (Jesus Christ, the Son of Man) was seen by revelation (as a sign of God's grace and favor restored to Israel), and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail".

This is not the physical return of the glorified Jesus with the saints of all Ages to step out on the ashes of the wicked following Armageddon. This is the realization of His 'parousia' Coming by the 144,000 elect Israelites and their new birth when He takes His rightful place as World Ruler in their hearts. Quoting from Newsletter 413:

Revelation 21:3, "I heard a great Voice from the throne saying, Behold, the dwelling place (tabernacle or temple) of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be with them".

Ezekiel 37:27-28, "My (tabernacle, temple, or) dwelling place shall be over them: and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. Then the nations shall know that I the Lord sanctify Israel, when My sanctuary is in the midst of them for evermore." God's dwelling place is in the heart of all born-again followers of Jesus Messiah– I Corinthians 6:16).

"Listen. And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me Whom they have pierced. . ."

(This "day" will be early in the second half of Daniel's Seventieth Week when faith takes hold of Israel following the death and resurrection of their prophets and the nation of 144,000 is born-again in one day (Isaiah 10:17; 30:26; 66:8; Zechariah 3:9-10).

Some time after Israel's regeneration—after Rome and renegade Jews martyr the Hebrew saints—after Rome breaks her covenant with the self-styled Jewish banksters—after the Jews defect to Judaeo-Communist Russia and annihilate Vatican City and the United States, Armageddon will break out. Then the nations will come against Jerusalem to destroy Roman Catholicism, Judaism, atheism, Communism and all religions, and receive "pure light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time" (Matthew 4:8-9). It is at this time that God will seek to destroy those nations– Zechariah 12:9; Revelation 11:18).

"Now, when is the Gospel returning to the Jews? When the day of the Gentiles is finished. The Gospel is ready to go back to the Jews. Oh, if I could just tell you something that is about to happen right in this our day. This great thing that is about to happen will carry over to Revelation 11 and pick up those two witnesses, those two prophets, Moses and Elijah, turning the Gospel back to the Jews. We're ready for it. Everything is in order."

("The great thing that is about to happen right in this our day" was the 'parousia' Coming of the Son of man. The revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in WORD form "as a thief in the night" (Acts 3:21; I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7). Christ's end-time Bride and the 144,000 Israelites were all fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary as we were predestinated to be regenerated by the fullness of the Word after PART-Word and Christ's mediation in the office of Son of God were done away").

"As the Jews brought the Message to the Gentiles, even so the Gentiles will take it right back to the Jews, and the Rapture will come."

(God allowed Israel's denominations to be Spiritually blinded by the anti-Christ teachings of the Talmud (Matthew 15:1-9), causing them to reject their Elijah of Isaiah 40:3-5 and Malachi 3:1 so that we Gentiles could join Shem under the tent of the Word. The apostolic saints or elect remnant of Israel brought the Message—Christ, the fullness of the Word—to we Gentiles when Israel was apostate. Now that the Gentile denominations are "materially rich and in need of nothing, but Spiritually wretched, miserable, poor, blind, naked, and know it not," having rejected the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6, their blindness in rejecting the fullness of the Word will turn the Message back to Israel (Zechariah 14:7-8) through the ministry of their Moses and Elijah of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11 after the close of our dispensation.

Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming is by revelation, first to we Gentiles, then to Israel. His precious feet will not touch this earth until He returns for the Millennium with the glorified saints (Romans 11:25-32). Thus the Gentile denominations could not see His second Coming any more than the Jewish denominations could see His first or second Comings, because they are both looking through the eyes of carnal theologians for the wrong scenario instead of seeking the fulfilment of God's Word.

One more point we will have in common with apostolic saints at the dispensation change will be the persecution of the righteous. As the righteous were persecuted at Christ's first Coming, and have been ever since, we will be persecuted at the close of this dispensation. Brother Branham said, "Remember we have shown clearly all through the ages that even as Adam and Eve fell because they left the Word, so the Ephesian Age fell by turning slightly from the Word, until with every age continuing to turn away, we have a final repudiation of the Word by the World Church system. This Laodicean Age ends in a blackout of the Word, thereby causing a departure of the Lord from the midst. He stands outside calling to His own that follow Him by obedience to the Word. (Thus Matthew 25:6 and Revelation 18:4 are the antitype of Hebrews 13:12-14– Ed). After a short and powerful demonstration of the Spirit this little hunted and persecuted group will go to be with Jesus" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 361.1).

"Now, remember what we have read in Revelation and Zechariah. Both come right after the tribulation. The Church of the First-born does not go through the tribulation. We know that. The Bible teaches that."

(God cannot deal with Israel until He has finished dealing with we Gentiles. Brother Branham is referring to the tribulation of the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week when the Church is in glory for the Marriage Supper of the Lamb).

"At that time it says that God is going to pour out His Spirit upon the house of Israel. It is the same Spirit that was poured upon the Gentiles in their day. "And they shall look upon Me Whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourneth for his only son, and they shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon. And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart. . ." and each one of the houses apart when He comes in clouds of glory at His Second Coming. Those Jews that pierced Him shall see Him as it says in another Scripture, "Whence did You get those wounds?" and He will say, "In the house of My friends." Not only will it be a mournful time for the Jews who rejected Him as Messiah, but it will be a mournful time for those left of the Gentiles who have rejected Him as the Saviour of this day."

(Brother Branham is speaking of Christ's 'parousia' Coming to Israel by revelation, and not the physical 'erchomai' return of the glorified Jesus. This is what he called "the revelation story of Zechariah 12:9-14").

"There'll be weeping and wailing. The sleeping virgins will be wailing. They represent the church that refused to get oil (symbol of the Holy Spirit) in their lamps (symbol of the body or holder of the oil) until it was too late. It wasn't that they were not good people. They were virgins and that signifies a high moral order. But they didn't have oil in their lamps so they were cast out where there was wailing and gnashing of teeth. . ."

While the Church is at the Wedding Supper, the antichrist covenant that the Jews have made with Rome will be broken. Rome and her allies then send their troops to destroy all the God-fearing, Word-abiding Jews.

But as they come against the city to destroy it, there will appear in the heavens the sign of the Coming of the Son of Man with His mighty armies to destroy them who have been destroying the earth. With the enemy repulsed, Jesus then comes and presents Himself to the 144,000. Having seen His mighty acts of salvation, they have come to know His power. But also seeing His wounds and knowing that they had rejected Him even to that moment, causes them to cry out in the agony of terror and fear, even as did their brethren of old when they stood before Joseph, being sore afraid that they would be killed. But as Joseph said, "Don't be angry with yourselves. It is all right. God was in it all. He did it to preserve life." Even so will Jesus speak peace and love to them" (ibid p.36:2-37:3, 41).

The manner in which the Prophet has expressed himself here can be somewhat confusing as some might misconstrue this as Armageddon, which it is not. Matthew addressed his Gospel to the Israelites. The sign in the heavens is the sign of Christ's 'parousia' Coming to Israel. In Matthew 24:3, 30 the disciples asked Jesus, "What shall be the sign of Your 'parousia' Coming"?

In Matthew 24:15-28 He prophesied Titus' destruction of Jerusalem and the tribulation that would befall true believers throughout the coming Gentile dispensation and said that unless He shortened the days for His end-time Bride, they would be martyred along with Israel, and there would be no flesh saved for the rapture. Jesus cautioned us that in the time of the shortening of days, which is the present holy convocation under the "Shout" and "Voice" of His parousia to us, Do not anticipate My glorified 'erchomai' or physical Coming at this time. My 'parousia' will be universal, and no man can appear universally. This is the Coming of the fullness of the Word once delivered to the apostolic saints in the East restored in the West to gather Jehovah's eagles into the threefold rapture (Zechariah 14:7; I Thessalonians 4:16).

Matthew 24:29-31 speaks of the Seventh Trump and the manifestation of the Sixth Seal, the sign of Christ's 'parousia' Coming to Israel—not His physical return—and Israel's two "angels" or prophets at the Seventh Trump, anointed with the Spirit and authority of Moses and Elijah to gather the 144,000 by their faith in the Message they bring. These events are not in strict chronological order.

Once again, this is not Christ's physical return, but "the revelation story of Zechariah 9-14 and Revelation 11:12-13."

Israel will not physically see the wounds in Jesus' hands, they will "see" or comprehend them by revelation (Zechariah 13:6). Nor will His feet physically stand upon the Mount of Olives but He will place judgment on that offending mountain (Zechariah 14:4). "The sign of the Coming of the Son of Man with His mighty armies to destroy them who have been destroying the earth" is explained in Revelation 19:11-21, speaks of His vindicated Word that will smite the nations in what remains of Daniel's Seventieth Week. The Word that regenerated the saints will destroy the sinners.

Brother Branham goes on to say, "With the enemy repulsed, Jesus then comes and presents Himself to the 144,000." This is somewhat confusing as some might imagine that the enemy had been repulsed by military combat, but this is not so.

Revelation 11:11-15, "After three and a half days the Spirit of God's own Life entered into the martyred Hebrew prophets; they arose, and great fear fell on all who saw them. And they heard a great Voice from heaven saying, Come up here. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud while their enemies looked on. Simultaneously there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell, and seven thousand were killed: and the remnant was affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven".

Revelation 12:14-17 further explains how the enemy was "repulsed." "The serpent cast water as a flood out of his mouth after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood." Or as Brother Branham said, "Rome and her allies then send their troops to destroy all the God-fearing, Word-abiding Jews." (The woman is true Israel, God's elect, whilst the "flood of water" signifies multitudes of troops). "And the earthquake helped the woman by swallowing seven thousand soldiers the Devil-incarnate pope had commanded to destroy the 144,000. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ."

The enemy was "repulsed" not by physical battle with Jesus and the saints, but by fear through the Supernatural vindication of God's prophets, and death by the earthquake.

"Jesus presents Himself" by removing Israel's Spiritual blindness unto faith and new birth. "His mighty acts of salvation" witnessed by the 144,000 were the "third pull" by which their prophets could curse their enemies as Elijah cursed the sinful children (II Kings 2:23-34), and Elisha smote the army of the Syrians with blindness (II Kings 6:13-18). They witnessed their "third pull" "shut heaven, that it rain not . . . turn water into blood, and smite with every plague as oft as they will." Finally they witnessed their resurrection and physical ascension, and the earthquake that destroyed a tenth of Jerusalem, and swallowed seven thousand of their enemy's troops spared their own lives. No wonder they will give glory to the God of heaven.

"Why did the Jews reject Jesus? God was in it all. It was the only way that He could bring out the Gentile Bride. He died on the cross to preserve the life of the Gentile Church" (ibid, p. 41:1).

The Christian Church is the legitimate continuation of the Old Testament Israel. There is but one Israel, one people of God from the beginning to the end (Romans 11:11:17-24). As Paul explained, the dead wood of unbelief was broken off and the new branches grafted in, but there was only one olive tree. Thus when we Gentiles come to Messiah we are incorporated into the commonwealth of Israel, so as to become fellow-citizens with those Old Testament saints who are already glorified and resurrected (Ephesians 2:12-19).

True, Spiritual Israel is all one Body of the first Adam's descendants, whether Hebrew or Gentile, born anew by the last Adam, the coming God. eb414.htm

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are happy to meet with you in God's unchanging Word.

Unreported by the principal news media are many "earthquakes in divers places" and also volcanic activity; while relief and reconstruction efforts in earthquake-ravaged communities of Pakistan, Turkey, Iran, China, India, Sri Lanka and Indonesia is seldom mentioned. Is this old news? One hears barely a whisper about intense tectonic activity on the US West Coast, or Yellowstone National Park. And the Pacific ring of fire is active as we move into the season for the "Big One".

Our main article in this Newsletter is centred on the five-fold ministry, explaining how it will be present and active in the Body until the "squeeze" and the manifestation of the Sons of God. At that time "the church systems will persecute the true Bride. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching, etc. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches the true Church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His Bride for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb (William Branham, An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 377).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Judas Iscariot to get Vatican Makeover

January 12, 2006– Interpretations of Judas Iscariot, the disciple who betrayed Jesus with a kiss, are being rethought by Vatican scholars.

The proposed "rehabilitation" of the man who was paid 30 pieces of silver to identify Jesus to Roman soldiers in the Garden of Gethsemane, comes on the ground that he was not deliberately evil, but was just "fulfilling his part in God's plan" reports the Times newspaper.

Historically Christians have often blamed Judas for aiding and abetting the Crucifixion, and his name is synonymous with treachery. According to St. Luke, Judas was "possessed by Satan".

Now, a campaign led by Monsignor Walter Brandmuller, head of the Pontifical Committee for Historical Science, is aimed at persuading believers to look kindly at a man reviled for 2,000 years, reports the newspaper.

Mgr. Brandmuller told fellow scholars it was time for a "re-reading" of the Judas story. He is supported by Vittorio Messori, a prominent Catholic writer close to both Pope Benedict XVI and the late John Paul II. . . Full story: ekklesia.co.uk

My Congratulations to the People of the Holy Land

By Israel Adam Shamir (Jaffa, Israel)

My beloved countrymen, sons and daughters of Palestine, you defied the orders of the Living Dead; you dared the threats of his servants in Washington, London and Brussels. You chose the party of faith and resistance. You manifested your spirit unbroken by oppression. I feel so proud of your noble daring, of your steadfast belief in God, of your defiant rejection of Tel Aviv's diktat. Even under the foreign military rule, you are the freest people in the world, the most unbending and resilient. You are freer than Americans who submitted to their Patriot Act, you are freer than Europeans who repeat the instructions of Washington and threaten Iran with sanctions and war. You are more pious than the Vatican who toys with the mad idea of beatifying Judas in order to curry favour with the Jews. You can't even move from a village to a village without Jewish permission, but you are free in spirit, and that counts most. Even today they kill your daughters and sons, but can't kill your indomitable spirit . . .

Should the new Hamas-led parliament recognise the supremacist and racist Jewish state? Certainly not. It may reject the partition and invite all permanent residents of the Holy Land to form together a new authority for the whole of Palestine from the River Jordan to the Sea. Full story: yahoo.com

Comment: Whilst we cannot agree with all points made by our friend, Brother Israel Shamir, his generous and noble spirit of goodwill to these brave Semitic people persecuted by the non-Semitic invaders and murderers of Hebrew and Arab brothers is to be commended.

Pentagon can Now Fund Foreign Militaries

January 29, 2006– Congress has granted unusual authority for the Pentagon to spend as much as $200 million of its own budget to aid foreign militaries, a break with the traditional practice of channeling foreign military assistance through the State Department. . .

The final version—Section 1206 of the authorization act—says the Pentagon can provide training, equipment and supplies "to build the capacity" of foreign militaries to conduct counter terrorist operations or join with US forces in stability operations. But the section also stipulates that orders for such aid must originate with the president, and it requires the Pentagon to work closely with the State Department in formulating and implementing the assistance.

This new authority cannot be used to provide any assistance banned by other US laws . . . Having gained this much, the Pentagon and State Department are now setting their sights on a more ambitious overhaul of foreign assistance rules.

"In the longer run, we need to have our assistance structured in a way that will give us even broader flexibility," said Philip Zelikow, the State Department's counselor. "The president and his advisers must be able to devise a program that can allocate money as needed among whatever agencies have the skill sets to deliver the capabilities, whether State, Defense, Justice or other government agencies."

Revelations about the Twin Towers in the 9/11 Oral Histories

"[T]here was just an explosion [in the south tower]. It seemed like on television [when] they blow up these buildings. It seemed like it was going all the way around like a belt, all these explosions."– Firefighter Richard Banaciski

"I saw a flash, flash, flash [at] the lower level of the building. You know like when they demolish a building?"– Assistant Fire Commissioner Stephen Gregory

"[I]t was [like a] professional demolition where they set the charges on certain floors and then you hear 'Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop'."– Paramedic Daniel Rivera

The above quotations come from a collection of 9/11 oral histories that, although recorded by the Fire Department of New York (FDNY) at the end of 2001, were publicly released only on August 12, 2005. Prior to that date, very few Americans knew the content of these accounts or even the fact that they existed.

Why have we not known about them until recently? Part of the answer is that the city of New York would not release them until it was forced to do so . . . Full story: 911truth.org

US in Technical Default

January 27, 2006– In a shocking development, the Treasury Department website is openly stating that as of January 24, 2006 our national debt stood at $8,185.3 billion and on January 26th at $8,190.5 billion.

Yet the US national debt 'ceiling,' the maximum amount of debt the US government may hold at any one time, stands at $8,184 billion a full $5.5 billion less. Although called upon by John Snow, Congress has not yet passed an expansion of the debt ceiling, so the US government is now operating in technical default.

You may recall that when last the debt ceiling was approached in the months surrounding the 2004 elections, the Treasury department furiously employed every accounting trick in the book (and then some) to avoid breaching the limit. They even went so far as to take the unprecedented step of borrowing $14 billion from the Federal Financing Bank to cover up the shortfall.

But they never breached the ceiling. Full story: financialsense.com

Other Dimensions might soon be Detected

Irvine, January 26, 2006– Northeastern University and University of California scientists say they might soon have evidence of extra dimensions and other exotic predictions.

Early results from a neutrino detector at the South Pole called AMANDA suggest ghostlike particles from space could serve as probes to a world beyond our familiar three dimensions, the research team says. The evidence, they say, would come from how neutrinos interact with other forms of matter on Earth.

No more than a dozen high-energy neutrinos have been detected so far. However, the current detection rate and energy range indicate AMANDA's larger successor, called IceCube, now under construction, could provide the first evidence for string theory and other theories that attempt to build upon our current understanding of the universe. An article describing this work appears in the current issue of Physical Review Letters. Full story: upi.com

Let Brotherly Love Continue

For every Israelite or Gentile Christian, "the last days" followed the death and resurrection of Christ and commenced with the giving of the Spirit for regeneration on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:17; Hebrews 1:1-3). However, when the prophets of the Old Testament describe the last days in relation to Israel they are speaking of Daniel's Seventieth Week, because when that nation, blinded by the Talmudic theology of their religious leaders, crucified Jesus, God turned to we Gentiles to call Messiah a Bride, a people for His Name. After the wedding Jesus will reveal Himself to Israel, and in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week they will recognize their King and Queen (Acts 15:7-9, 14-16; Isaiah 11:10-11; 54:1-5; Zechariah 12:10-13:9).

I Timothy 4:1, "The Spirit distinctly states that in the latter times—or during the long days of papal and Greek anti-Christianity—some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils".

Here Paul foretold the manner in which the apostasy would declare itself. Jesus called this Balaamism (Revelation 2:14), which is the substitution of false teachings or interpretations of God's revealed Word. This caused Israel to commit whoredom with the Moabites (Numbers 25) and resulted in the introduction of a pagan trinity of gods, unscriptural baptism in three Titles and the organization of Roman Catholicism at the First Nicaea Council in AD325.

II Timothy 3:1, "This know also, that in the last days—the very end of "the Messianic Age" for we Gentiles in this time of Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming when the apostate end-time conditions of the days of Noah and Christ are replicated along with the conditions of the days of Lot (II Peter 3:3-4; Matthew 24:3, 37-39)—perilous times shall come [suddenly]".

I Thessalonians 5:3-5, "When people say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction will come upon them like the birth pains of a woman; and there will be no escape. But you, brethren, are not in darkness for that day to surprise you as a thief. For you are all sons of Light, and children of the day: we are not of the night or of darkness".

In II Timothy 3 and 4, Paul foretold the outward immorality that would be associated with this inward falling away from the faith after the revelation of the Seven Seals when the conditions of the days of Noah and Lot are replicated. The apostates will remain within Christian circles, holding the Name of Jesus Christ and church form, "to take away their reproach" (Isaiah 4:1). But in this false security of hybrid Christianity they will be snared and taken in the sudden dispensation change, and will not escape the Great Tribulation.

Such prophecy explains how the "little foxes" of careless living, the haphazard understanding of a second-hand or do-it-yourself religion with a form of godliness that denies the revelation of the Word, which is the essence of its authority and power, will cause many to suffer loss (I Corinthians 3:10-15). A little leaven in the primitive Church has leavened the whole lump over 2,000 years of the "last days" such that at the end of the Laodicean Church Age God called a third exodus of the wise and even the foolish virgin out from Rome and her (once) Protestant daughters who will be cast into a lake of Fire at the consummation (Revelation 19:20; 20:10).

The tribulation of the "last days" or Messianic Age of redemption and completion runs from Pentecost to the consummation. Although for Christ's end-time Bride, those days have been shortened by the revelation of the end-time Message drawing us into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation, otherwise there would be no flesh saved for the translation. The rest of earth's population goes into the Great Tribulation; the "saved" and 144,000 Hebrew saints will be martyred while the remainder shall perish in the atomic conflagration of Armageddon.

WMB laying cornerstoneThe morning Brother Branham laid the corner stone for his church building, the Lord spoke to him and said, "This is not your Tabernacle; when you come out of this vision read II Timothy 4." And He set me down under the bright blue sky and said, "Do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry. For the time will come when they won't endure sound doctrine but shall heap for themselves together teachers, having itching ears, and shall be turned from the truth to fables."

God told Brother Branham, "Leave Jeffersonville and do the work of an evangelist." But in deference to the wishes of his mother-in-law, he put off obeying God. Yet obedience is better than sacrifice. If God tells you to do something, you had better obey at once, lest a worse thing come upon you. Thus, in 1937 God took the life of the Prophet's first wife, Sister Hope, and their baby daughter through the flood he had foreseen in a vision at the age of seven wherein the Ohio River rose thirty-two feet above Spring Street, Jeffersonville.

God told him he would travel around the world, praying for kings and potentates. He could not understand how this could be since he had only a seventh grade education. But God said, "As the prophet Moses was given two signs as a vindication, so will you. Take people by their right hand in your left, and keep humble." (A reaction on his hand indicated their ailment). And He said, "It will come to pass that you'll know the very secret of their hearts. This is the same thing our Lord Jesus did on earth. It's the revelation of the Son of Man."

King George VIGod is true to His Word, and Brother Branham's ministry spearheaded the healing revival that followed World War II. He prayed for King George VI, who was healed of multiple sclerosis. William Upshaw, a US Presidential candidate in the days of prohibition, leapt and ran after being confined for 66 years and pushed his wheelchair from the meeting. Even his critics don't deny what God did in this ministry, which revealed Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever by the Messianic Sign of Hebrews 4:12, discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart "as it was in the days of Lot." The dead were raised to life and demons cast out. Cripples were made whole, the blind saw and cancers healed. Some meetings held crowds estimated at 500,000.

When the Lord told Brother Branham in December 1962, Go West for the evening-time Light, his work as an evangelist was fulfilled, and he relocated to Tucson, Arizona. "For the time had come when people would not endure sound doctrine but after their own lusts heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears, and turn away their ears from the truth to fables."

Cloud Acts 1:9-11, Life Magazine May 17, 1963On February 28, 1963, the Supernatural Cloud prophesied in Daniel 7:9, Matthew 24:4,30, Acts 1:9-11 and Revelation 1:7 manifested in Arizona's usually clear blue skies. It was "the sign of the end-time" that would commence when Jesus Christ revealed the Seven Seals thus bringing His 'parousia' Coming (Daniel 12:4, 9; Revelation 10:1, 6). On March 8 the Lord told His Prophet to return to Jeffersonville where He should receive His "Elijah" anointing as Christ revealed the Seven Seals through him to the congregation. God cannot bring the world to judgment without first displaying a sign in the heavens and sending a vindicated prophet with warning and a way to escape the judgment. Yet few have recognized the significance of the Sign in the sky, and despite an abundance of Supernatural vindication in the United States and overseas throughout the years in which he was "doing the work of an evangelist," few received his prophetic ministry.

Four months after the end of the Laodicean Church Age, Brother Branham defined the five gifts or offices of ministry God ordained "to bring the saints to maturity for their work of ministration" in general service, principally to the Body, and "to uphold the truth in love." Each has his different office (Romans 12:4) although mutually dependent upon all other members of the Body (I Corinthians 12:21). Some are doctors, motor mechanics and web administrators, some mothers and nurses. There are "gifts of healings, helps (janitors, librarians, organizers, secretaries), and governments (treasurers, bishops and deacons), diversities of tongues," etc (I Corinthians 12:28). Every member of the Body possesses gifts of practical service in the life of the Body.

The five-fold ministry is to equip us to "always be ready to explain to every man that asks us to account for the hope that is in us with gentleness and reverence." All of this so "that the saints may be fitted for the work of ministration to the Body of Christ to edify or build itself up in brotherly love." In Ephesians 4:12 there is no thought of quantitative increase from without but qualitative increase within the Body by attendance to the needs of individual members through the edification of one by the other. This reinforces the emphasis Brother Branham placed on character-building and having the Token of the Life of Christ on display at all times.

Our character is an ensign of Christ, a written epistle known and read of all men. This is the means by which we sanctify and save our family and friends, the behaviour by which a saintly wife wins her husband to Christ (I Corinthians 7:12-16; I Peter 3:1-2).

The end of the perfecting or complete furnishing of the saints for the work of ministering to the needs of the Brethren and building-up of the Body in love comes into being when "all of Christ's end-time Bride attain to or arrive at the unity of the faith and all alike know Christ, the object of our faith, in personal relationship".

This end is explained in Ephesians 1 where Paul speaks of the translation of Christ's end-time Bride through "the Spirit of wisdom and knowledge of Him: the eyes of our understanding being enlightened; that we may know what is the hope of God's calling, and what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty [resurrection] power, which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places".

Thus the five-fold ministry has an essential role until the early days of the "squeeze" and the manifestation of the Sons of God—our practical test and "finishing school"—after the close of the Gentile dispensation. Then we will look unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith in a one on one relationship with just expectation, if we are in the unity of the faith and intimate knowledge of the Spirit; in "a perfect Man"—His many-membered facsimile in the full Spiritual stature of the full-grown and mature Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:23).

Here is how Brother Branham defined these five offices: "the pastor is a special person. He's built to where he can put up with the fusses of the people. He's a burden-bearer; he's the ox of the team. He's a man that can set down when somebody's got something against somebody else, and set down with them two families, and take neither side, and reason it out, and bring it right back into sweetness. He knows how to take care of things."

"The evangelist is a special man. He's a man that's burning like a fireball. He runs into a city and preaches his message, and gets out of there somewhere else. See, he's a special man."

"The teacher is a special man. He sets back under the anointing of the Spirit and is able to take the Words and put them together by the Holy Spirit, that the pastor or evangelist either one could not compare with him."

"And then we find out the apostle is a special man. He's a setter-in-order. He's a man that's sent from God to set the things in order."

"The prophet is a special man. A prophet is a man whom the Word of the Lord comes to, because the prophet is so designed in life that his subconscious and his first conscious is so close together that he doesn't go to sleep to dream his dream; he sees it when he's wide awake. See? Now, that's something God has to do. . . A prophet foresees way off (See?) the things that is coming. He sees the cup of God's wrath, full, before it is filled. See? He can say, "THUS SAITH THE LORD . . . he's saying what he's looking at. It ain't here yet, but it'll sure be here. That's right. It's going to be here . . . He knows it's coming, years away, yet he sees it" (Warning then Judgment, p. 17:104-109).

In Questions and Answers on the Seals Brother Branham said these "special men" will be in the Bride of Christ (p. 494:Q22; Proving His Word, 12:60-61; Spiritual Food in Due Season, p. 20:142; I Have Heard but Now I See, p. 15:82; Trying to do God a Service without It being God's Will, p. 38:232-237). And in 1964 he taught we should still pay tithes to our minister. Surely if tithing remains obligatory there must be a continuing five-fold ministry to receive our tithes. Since the revelation of the Seven Seals brought us the fullness of the Word, and the mystery of God is finished, the Church should be mature and in order, having put away childish reasonings against faith (Calling Jesus on the Scene, p. 19:127; Influence #22:18, p. 13:98; COD, p. 1034:184-185; God's Chosen Place of Worship, p. 24:115).

On April 18, 1965, before preaching the sermon titled, "Does God ever change His Mind about His Word" (p. 4:19-60), Brother Branham ordained a number of ministers, so there was still a five-fold ministry growing within the circle of this Message three years after the fullness of the Word was delivered. God has not changed His mind about His Word (Malachi 3:16)!

In I Corinthians 12:29-30, Paul asks the rhetorical question, "Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles? Are all nurses, accountants or web administrators? Have all the gifts of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?" Surely not!

Paul spent much of chapter 12 pronouncing against exclusive regard for particular gifts since it was impossible for all to have one alone, and God has distributed diverse gifts and abilities among the members of the body such that no individual saint is an island unto himself but is interdependent upon the other members of the Body as the organs of the human body are mutually dependent one upon another for the health, functioning and welfare of the whole.

As in the body all is not eye, or all foot or all hand, so not everyone in the Church occupy the same offices and possess the same gifts. These God distributes according to His sovereign wisdom and pleasure. None must be discontinued and none must boast. But although all gifts have their value and are conferred by God, yet some are more valuable than others, and Paul encourages us to be more zealous for the gifts most advantageous to attaining the objective of all gifts. Yet besides exhorting us to be zealous of the better gifts, "I show you a more excellent way" as individual Christians than seeking even the greater gifts: the way of love, which embraces faith and hope, bears all of the fruits of the Spirit (I Corinthians 13:1-13; Galatians 5:22-26), and is a more excellent way to obtain the gifts and our objective, which is the Life of Christ in us and the Token on display.

This is Paul's Message in I Corinthians 12– 13 as he explains, "Make charity your great quest, and zealously desire Spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy or speak by revelation" (I Corinthians 14:1, 3, 39). The emphasis is upon spiritual revelation for the edification of the Body and "those who are unlearned or unbelievers." When Brother Branham said, "I'll ride the trail once more" he was referring to the prophesy of the end-time Bride (I Corinthians 14:23; Revelation 10:8-11; Genesis 4:10).

Neither Paul nor Brother Branham implies dissolution of the five fold ministry at the close of the Laodicean Church Age. Indeed, as the denominational churches are apostate and know it not, and we have the fullness of the Word in what Zechariah called "a day in which the Light is neither clear nor dark" the five-fold ministry is more needful now than at any time in history.

Brother Branham explained in 1965, "Jesus Christ is revealing Himself through the ages by His Spirit in the messengers. They are as Moses was to the children of Israel. As Moses had the revelation for his day, so each messenger had God's revelation and ministry for that day."

"Thus when we see that the messengers are in His hand, we see the Lord identifying Himself with these men and granting them His power (Revelation 1:16). It is not enough that He has associated Himself with the whole church, which we saw when He was seen standing amongst the seven golden lamp-stands. Nor is it even enough that we see the five-fold ministry of Ephesians four (apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists, pastors). For in each age the church goes astray, and it is not just the laity but the clergy group—shepherds are wrong as well as sheep. Then God brings Himself on the scene as the Chief Shepherd in the ministries of these seven men to lead His people back to the truth and the abundant power of that truth."

"God is in His people—all of His people, for if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is none of His. And He is the Word. That would be the Word recognized in the people. But He has placed a special leadership in these men of His own choosing and through the determined counsel of His own will. They appear once in each age. It is the same Spirit in them. What a far cry is this from the heresy of Rome. They have a man of their own choosing—one after the other—none producing the power of God—none abiding in the Word of God—each one differing from the one before him and adding what he desires as though he were God. God is not in it. God is in His messenger and he who would have the fullness of God would follow the messenger as the messenger is a follower of the Lord by His Word" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages (p. 251:3. And on page 344:1 the Prophet was still speaking of the currency of the five-fold ministry).

Brother Branham was the angel to the Laodicean Church Age who introduced the end-time Bride to the fullness of the Word. The revelation of the Seven Seals in March, 1963, brought the Chief Shepherd back to earth in WORD form. Since that which is perfect is made known, PART-Word, and Christ's mediation because of its incompleteness, and the leadership of an angel to the Church Ages anointed with a portion of the Spirit, is done away. But the five-fold ministry continues its work.

In 1964 Brother Branham taught, "There are five offices elected of God. For God has set in the church apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors, evangelists." God did that. Man has deacons and so forth, and everything else, but God set in the church for the perfecting of the church—can't divide it."

"Now, the Holy Spirit, when It comes, It is a witness unto you (See?) that this Word is right, the Word for today, not the Word for Luther, the Word, not for Moses. We witness it's the Truth, but it's another day . . ."

"I Corinthians 13 says this: "When that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away with." So all these little things of jumping up-and-down like a kid, trying to talk in tongues, and all these other things, when that which is perfect. . . And we do have today, by God's help, the perfect interpretation of the Word with Divine vindication. Then that which is in part is done away with. "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child; but when I become a man, I put away childish things. . ." (COD, p. 1005:54-57).

It is not the five-fold ministry that is "done away," but the imperfect revelation of PART-Word and guesswork men devised to fill in the blanks so that the Scriptures would conform to their understanding, the "manufacture" of gifts and impersonation of offices for which ignorance Christ interceded.

The responsibility of the five-fold ministry is to keep the saints clean and under preeminence to the Word by the washing of water by the Word, or a clear revelation bringing us to maturity in the unity of the faith. This is accomplished by preaching, which exposes our faults and shortcomings, bringing correction and discipline through sanctification; and by teaching, which shows us our position in the Body.

You might say, "That is the job of the Holy Spirit"!

Indeed it is, and He has ordained the five-fold ministry to accomplish the task. God's Word is Spirit in a form we can receive by faith, and faith is the mind Word of God in us—a clear understanding of His Will. Because the Holy Spirit can only enter the human heart in WORD form—through our eyes or our ears, God in His wisdom chose the foolishness of preaching to impart His Life through the Spirit-quickened Word. The Word is a seed, but if it abides alone it will lay dormant in the hearer until he receives a further portion of Word that brings meaning and Life or understanding to what they have already heard.

Romans 10:14-15, 17, "How shall men call upon Him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in One of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher??? And how can men preach, unless they are sent? As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! So faith comes from hearing, and what is heard comes by the preaching of Christ".

We overcome sin, sickness and worldly temptations by faith in the revealed Word and prayer.

As it was in the days of Noah, the time is near when God will shut the door to the Kingdom. Don't be caught on the wrong side of that door. Only eight overcame by listening to God's Word in the days of Noah, and three of them were subsequently lost. Lot's wife started out as an overcomer by listening to God's Word, but her heart was still in Sodom. She wanted to wear trousers, cut her hair and party with her sinner friends. A woman should put God's will and Word first in her life, then her husband and family, and finally herself.

Israel began their exodus two million strong, but of all the adults who left Egypt, only Joshua and Caleb entered the Promised Land. The denominations did run well but their love for the leaven of their traditions hindered them from stepping into further Light as God continued to reveal It.

People miss the mark of the high calling in Christ Jesus because they fail to abide in the Vine (John 15:7). Jesus is our example; He overcame Satan's temptations by the Word of God. Jesus knew He was the Son of God, so after His forty-day fast when Satan played upon his hunger to cause Him to prove His authority by serving His fleshly desires, but He being under preeminence to God did only what the Father showed Him in a vision and spoke only what He heard from the Father. He was not about to serve the senses of His flesh and mortal spirit at Satan's suggestion. That would have been human reasoning, not faith, and it would not have worked. He responded with the Word: "It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God".

Next Satan tempted Him to promote his ministry by a public display of the Supernatural, and taking Him to a high place in the temple, he quoted Scripture: "If You are the Son of God, throw yourself down: for it is written, He shall give His angels charge concerning you: and in their hands they shall bear You up, lest at any time You dash Your foot against a stone".

Jesus replied, "It is written again, you shall not tempt the Lord Your God." Those with gifts and authorities should wait upon the Lord as His servants, allowing Him to use His gifts through them, not presume to usurp His power for personal glorification. Moses did that when he smote the rock a second time and God forbade him from entering the Promised Land.

Finally, Satan offered to forfeit his world dominion to Jesus, enabling him to avoid Calvary's cross if only he would worship him. Had Jesus accepted Satan's offer He would have forfeited our lives and there could be no eternal Kingdom, which is now being built upon brotherly love and reconciliation (I John 5:14-16; II Corinthians 5:18-21). Those building a New World Order without Christ have accepted the offer Jesus refused, and forfeited eternal Life. Thus Jesus rebuked Satan saying, "Be gone, Satan: for it is written, you shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve".

Jesus chose the hard way of the Lord's despised few and overcame, willingly surrendering His life and prospects of worldly glory that we might have eternal Life. And because Brother Branham also chose the hard way, God ordained that He should "finish the mystery of God" by revealing the Seven Seals. "Let us therefore study to show ourselves approved of God by rightly dividing the Word of Truth . . . and let Brotherly love continue". eb415.htm

Standard & Poor's Specialists predict Global Economic Armageddon

January 31, 2006– Experts of Standard & Poor's forecast a global economic collapse. The collapse will be caused with the demise of the US dollar rate against the European currency by more than 30%. The dollar, specialists say, may lose almost 45% of its current value against the euro. However, it is obvious that even a 30% reduction will affect the international economy greatly.

The Privilege of American Debt

France, February 6, 2006– Starting in 1982, the United States began to accumulate external deficits that have increased significantly during the last five years. These deficits may represent the greatest threat to the global economy, but President Bush was silent on the subject during his State of the Union speech last week. Accounting for these deficits is rather simple at first glance: Americans consume and invest more than they produce. In order to do that, they import more goods than they export, and every year they therefore have to borrow more from the rest of the world. Americans don't want to save (the household savings rate is negative!), and the rest of the world does it for them . . .

The problem with this exorbitant privilege is that it's naturally tempting to exploit it. By getting too far into debt, the United States could endanger the role of the dollar and the stability of its financial markets, both at the very source of its exorbitant privilege.

Syria switches to Euro amid Confrontation with US

Damascus, February 13, 2006– Syria has switched all of the state's foreign currency transactions to euros from dollars amid a political confrontation with the United States, the head of state-owned Commercial Bank of Syria said on Monday. . .

"It looks like a kind of pre-emptive action aimed at making their foreign assets safer, preventing them from getting frozen in case of any conflict," said a Middle East economist who requested anonymity. Full story: news.yahoo.com

Iran's Oil Exchange threatens the Greenback

January 26, 2006– The Bush administration will never allow the Iranian government to open an oil exchange (bourse) that trades petroleum in euros. If that were to happen, hundreds of billions of dollars would come flooding back to the United States crushing the greenback and destroying the economy. This is why Bush and Co. is planning to lead the nation to war against Iran. It is straightforward defense of the current global system and the continuing dominance of the reserve currency, the dollar.

The claim that Iran is developing nuclear weapons is a mere pretext for war. The NIE (National Intelligence Estimate) predicts that Iran will not be able to produce nukes for perhaps a decade. So too, IAEA chief Mohammed El Baradei has said repeatedly that his watchdog agency has found no evidence of a nuclear weapons program.

There are no nuclear weapons or nuclear weapons programs, but Iran's economic plans do pose an existential threat to America, and not one that can be simply brushed aside as the unavoidable workings of the free market. Full story: countercurrents.org

Iran Paper plans Holocaust Cartoons

February 6, 2006– Iran's largest selling newspaper has announced it is holding a contest on cartoons of the Holocaust in response to the publishing in European papers of caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad. . .

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's president, prompted international anger when he said the Holocaust was a "myth" used to justify the creation of Israel. . .

Last week the Iranian Foreign Ministry also invited Tony Blair, the British prime minister, to Tehran to take part in a planned conference on the Holocaust, even though the idea has been branded by Blair as "shocking, ridiculous, stupid".

Blair also said Ahmadinejad "should come and see the evidence of the Holocaust himself in the countries of Europe," to which Iran responded by saying it was willing to send a team of "independent investigators". Full story: aljazeera.net  truthout.org

Comment: In 1934 Emil Ludwig Cohn said: "Hitler does not want war, but we will force it on him." And they did! "Islam does not want war, but those who forced World War II on Hitler will force the hot phase of World War III upon Iran. All three World Wars were planned in the mid-nineteenth century".

Mrs. Merete Eldrup is managing director of JP/Politikens Hus, the company that published anti-Islamic cartoons in Denmark. Her husband, Anders Eldrup, has attended the last five Bilderberg meetings. She is a former Head of Secretariat at the Ministry of Economic and Business Affairs and Deputy Director of the Danish Energy Authority.

She must be a useful contact for her husband who is chairman of DONG, the big State-owned energy company ('Danish Oil and Natural Gas'), which will soon be privatised. Interestingly, a previous editor-in-chief of 'Politiken', another of JP/Politikens Hus's newspapers, namely Toger Seidenfaden, was also a long-time Bilderberger.

Iran has the US's Number

February 14, 2006– The principal obstacle to the propagation of revisionism is, simply, fear. At present, the entrenched legend is protected by a system of legal and extra-legal prohibitions ("taboos"). Nobody could dispute the truth of that statement in Europe, where laws in most countries specifically proscribe the expression of revisionist ideas as criminal offenses. For me, the most painful instance of that intellectual terror is the incarceration of my chemist friend Germar Rudolf, presently being held in solitary confinement in a maximum security prison near Stuttgart.

His heinous crime? As a chemistry graduate student he did a forensic analysis of the walls of the alleged gas chambers, didn't find the cyanide residues that ought to have been there and concluded they weren't gas chambers. The lack of such forensic evidence is well known in the field. For example, in the Wall Street Journal of July 7, 2004, Timothy Ryback wrote that "there is little forensic evidence proving homicidal intent" in the ruins of Auschwitz.

Comment: Meanwhile George II seeks additional US$75-million to reinforce his existing US$10-million propaganda campaign of lies against Iran. Gotta turn WWIII into a "hot" war before the US$ fails. Having manufactured and funded "global Islamist extremism," he submits America's "Long War" as his fait accompli to fight "global Islamist extremism." In truth this is Albert Pike's 150-year-old military blueprint prepared for the Illuminati.

Russian MP says US will Strike Iran in March

February 7, 2006– A top Russian parliamentary leader has told Ekho Moskvy radio station that an attack on Iran is inevitable and that it will occur on March 28th. The leader of the Liberal Democrats Vladimir Zhirinovsky also believes that the Muslim riots were orchestrated by the US to garner European backing for the military strike. . .

Zhirinovsky told the Russian radio station, "The war is inevitable because the Americans want this war. Any country claiming a leading position in the world will need to wage wars. Otherwise it will simply not be able to retain its leading position."

"The date for the strike is already known—it is the election day in Israel (March 28). It is also known how much that war will cost," said Zhirinovsky. . .

The Bilderberg Group is a shadowy organization that meets once a year to steer global policy. It is now widely acknowledged that Bilderberg set the date for the March 2003 invasion of Iraq. Full story: prisonplanet.com  mosnews.com

FEMA Concentration Camps and Executive Orders

There over 800 prison camps in the United States, all fully operational and ready to receive prisoners. They are all staffed and even surrounded by full-time guards, but they are all empty. These camps are to be operated by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) should Martial Law need to be implemented in the United States. All it would take is a presidential signature on a proclamation and the attorney general's signature on a warrant to which a list of names is attached. Ask yourself if you really want to be on Ashcroft's list.

The Rex 84 Program was established on the reasoning that if a "mass exodus" of illegal aliens crossed the Mexican/US border, they would be quickly rounded up and detained in detention centers by FEMA. Rex 84 allowed many military bases to be closed down and to be turned into prisons.

Operation Cable Splicer and Garden Plot are two subprograms which will be implemented once the Rex 84 program is initiated for its proper purpose. Garden Plot is the program to control the population. Cable Splicer is the program for an orderly takeover of the state and local governments by the federal government. FEMA is the executive arm of the coming police state and thus will head up all operations. The Presidential Executive Orders already listed on the Federal Register also are part of the legal framework for this operation.

The camps all have railroad facilities as well as roads leading to and from the detention facilities. Many also have an airport nearby. The majority of the camps can house a population of 20,000 prisoners. Currently, the largest of these facilities is just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Alaskan facility is a massive mental health facility and can hold approximately 2 million people. . . Full story: sianews.com

There is no Fear of God before their Eyes

The amoral god of this world is the sum of wisdom and beauty, the god of science and education for the purpose of control, not moral enlightenment and social advance. Thus life education prescribed by the Establishment is designed to brainwash and enslave us as prisoners of our own minds, beginning at the cradle and continuing to the grave.

Scant few are conscious of entrapment. Few seek liberty. Of those who learn the way less than one in a million follow that path to eternal Life, "because strait is entrance to New Jerusalem, narrow the way, and few there be who discover it" (Matthew 7:14).

Our first twenty or so years of life are committed to the education plant where we learn false science, fraudulent history, mythical economic theory, corrupt law, bad manners and make-believe religious traditions contrary to faith. The following twenty to thirty years are spent establishing a home and raising a family under the latest theories which contradict much of what we were taught to perceive as constants.

Subsequently, some who win emancipation from the television set will begin to think and seek the true Absolute. Their discoveries will uncover lies, hypocrisies and corruption in the disciplines and among the most respected names. Truth is too intimidating for many. Others find themselves estranged from friends and family, ostracized by the community, and soon learn to keep truth to themselves and a like-minded coterie.

This was the apostle Paul's experience when he became a Christian and my experience when I was born-again. I learned that the Sunday school song which says, "Jesus died for all the children, all the children in the world . . ." is not true. It is a lovely thought that has stayed in my mind all these years, but it is unscriptural. Jesus did not die for all the children in the world: He died for all the children of Adam's race.

Because denominational religions fear man more than they fear God, they are afraid to disclose Bible truth lest sinners take offense and stir up criticism among the unbelievers. Cowardice creates confusion, assimilating righteousness with unrighteousness when men who are not entering God's Kingdom steal the key of knowledge, hindering those intent upon entering" (Amos 3:3).

The Bible is the story of two races building opposing kingdoms in a contest between eternal Life and death. The Patriarch of Adam's fallen race is God, creating a Kingdom for His children who are the Attributes of Himself through His love and their faith in His Word and Life. God placed His children on the basis of free moral agency to decide their own destiny, and reflect His character or the nature of children of disobedience.

The vicarious patriarch of Cain's race is also a supernatural being. However Lucifer is not a creator but a perverter of God's creation as when he incarnate the Serpent and seduced Eve. She bore Cain who is not God's Word and Life but a hybrid and death. His kingdom is built upon hubris, chutzpah, and scientific reasoning against the faith.

Character is not a gift: it is the victory of saying, "Not my will Lord, but Thy will be done in me." If we could defeat the god of this world and win in our own strength Jesus died in vain, so the battle is the Lord's. The conflict is long and difficult as our adversary is "the sum of wisdom and beauty," money and power, building a kingdom that will appeal to the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life.

I am privileged of the Lord to have been chosen as a contestant in this horrible battle in order that He may impart His character to make up my lack. For the past twelve years Satan's dupes have persecuted and defamed me, my Church and the Gospel we preach—nationally through the media and internationally via the Internet. Because we have always "turned the other cheek," they have been emboldened to test their lies through government agencies and the courts, utilizing laws drafted by their overseas associates and legislated by our puppet government.

It seems appropriate for the edification of the Body of Christ that we raise the matter in this Newsletter because if Iran is viciously attacked in the next several weeks, we might look forward to the promised earthquake that will sink Los Angeles and end the Gentile dispensation. Then this "squeeze" and persecution will come upon the Christian Church worldwide.

Brother Branham said, "Oh, little flock, do not fear. This age is fast closing. As it does those tares will be bound together, and as a three-fold cord is not easily broken, they will have a tremendous three-fold strength of political, physical, and spiritual (Satanical) power, and they will seek to destroy the Bride of Christ. She will suffer, but she will endure. Fear not those things that are coming upon the earth, for He "Who loved His own, loveth them unto the end" (John 13:1; An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 355:2).

". . . the false vine came into full fruition in this [Laodicean] age. Her fruit would mature and ripen. That is correct. This evil-spirited church, full of iniquity, will be revealed as the mustard seed that grew into a tree wherein lodged the fouls of the air. At her head will be the antichrist, the mystery of iniquity. All this is true. And if this is true, then it must also be true that the Bride Church will mature, and her ripeness shall be an identification with her Lord by means of the Word, and her Head Who will come to her is the Mystery of Godliness, Which indeed is Christ. And as the false church with all cunning and diabolical power made up of political force, physical force and demons of darkness come against this true vine, the true vine with the fullness of the Spirit and the Word will do the very acts of power that Jesus did. Then as she nears her Headstone, becoming like Him through the Word, Jesus will come that the Bride and Groom may be forever united as one" (Ibid p. 363:1).

Every member of the Bride must go to the "finishing school" of the "squeeze" following the close of our dispensation in order that God may prove and manifest who are the Sons of God. Those persecuting our little Church through their power as agents of the 'hidden hand' will be knocking on your door soon after the earthquakes sink Los Angeles and split the mount of Olives, so be Spiritually prepared with Token on display.

While Cain was Eve's firstborn, Abel was Adam's firstborn. Cain lived under the delusion that the birthright, or symbol of election and eternal Life was his, he knew nothing of his parentage. When it came time to seek atonement with God by offering an innocent life in substitution for his guilty life, Cain offered fruit and vegetables—his own carnal works—a type of the Law of sin and death (Romans 8:2) delivered through the mediation of Moses as chastisement for Israel's unbelief in His Word and rejection of Abraham's grace covenant.

Do you see the parallel between the true Church and the false church of today, and between natural Israel and Spiritual Israel? Hebrews 12:17, "Esau having recklessly sold his birthright for a single meal, later desired to inherit the blessing but was rejected: for he found no opportunity to repent though he sought it with tears." A type of Israel and the foolish virgin (Leviticus 23:27-32; Zechariah 12:10-14; Matthew 8:12; 22:13; Revelation 1:7)!

Sin must be atoned before God can bless the thank offering of firstfruits, and His Law of restitution demands the perfect substitution of "a life for a life . . . for without shedding of blood there is no remission" (Exodus 21:23; Hebrews 9:22). God rejected Cain's unrighteous offering of human reasoning against the faith. Besides, it was animal and not vegetable life that was lost in the fall, thus only animal life can atone.

Hebrews 11:4, "By faith Abel offered God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and although he died, his example of faith is still speaking".

Genesis 4:8-16, "So Cain talked with Abel: and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel and slew him. (Having learned the mystery of his hybrid conception through the original sin Cain planned to continue his deception of possessing the birthright). So when the Lord asked Cain, Where is Abel your brother? He said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?"

"And God said, What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries to Me from the ground. And now you are cursed from this earth which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand; when you till the ground, it shall not henceforth yield you its strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shall you be in the earth."

Thus after the Flood the children of Cain were driven out, dispersed and scattered abroad (Genesis 10:15-20).

"Cain said to the Lord, My perversity is greater than I can bear, for this day You have driven me away from the ground; and from Your Presence I shall be hidden; and I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to pass, that whoever discovers my true identity will try to kill me."

"And the Lord replied, On the contrary, whoever slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, lest anyone discovering his true identity should kill him. And Cain went out from the Presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden" (which was in Egypt).

As a result of the Fall we have two races of man upon the earth: Adam's race crowned by his kinsman Redeemer Jesus Messiah, and Cain's race that has no kinsman redeemer despise Messiah, because He is the last Adam and not the last Cain. God set enmity between the offspring of Adam and the children of Cain—an unceasing enmity that shall work on permanently through all generations (Genesis 3:15; 6:1-4; Matthew 24:37).

Cain perpetuates the nature of his vicarious father Lucifer, who was a liar and murderer from the beginning (Genesis 1:11; Exodus 20:5; John 8:44; I John 3:4-16). But why do you suppose he feared Adam's descendants would try to kill his people whenever they discovered their true identity? Could it be because God said Adam's seed born of woman would bruise the head of the Serpent and his seed? Did He not command the children of Israel to "utterly destroy" any of Cain's descendants they encountered in the Promised Land (Deuteronomy 7:1-4; 20:16-18)? And what did they do?

Miscegenation between the two races is genocide to Adam's kind. This was Lucifer's objective in the original sin and is his purpose in the enforcement of multiculturalism today . . . "as it was in the days of Noah" (Matthew 25:37). Certainly no believing Israelite would advocate multiculturalism. If miscegenation so grieved the Lord that He allowed evil men to destroy earth by the Great Flood, won't its repetition in this day grieve the unchanging God such that He will allow them to destroy earth by atomic fire?

Balaam the prophet said, "How can God bless what He has cursed" (Numbers 22:6)? So to this day Cain has hidden or disguised his true identity by working under another name that is highly respected, and in a different occupation.

When Abel revealed his true identity, Cain realized he was a son of perdition damned to total loss and utter destruction, accursed of God with no inheritance in this world and no hope in the world that is to come. Cain did not fear God and was not concerned with salvation for he was a hybrid, not part of God's creation, and he could not be redeemed. Neither could he truly enter God's Presence without a revelation.

Cain's main concern was his loss of preeminence and prestige as Adam's firstborn, and the repugnance with which Adam's race would regard his accursed line that was alien to God's creation. So although he did not fear God, Cain feared for his life because of what man might do whenever he was identified for whom he is. "Behold, my perversity is more than I can bear".

God set a mark upon Cain lest any finding him should kill him and extinguish his race. "And the Lord said, whosoever slays Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." This indicates that the seed of the Serpent and Cain's dominion over evil must continue until the Millennium and be cast into the Lake of Fire after the White Throne Judgment.

Paul, who based all of his teachings upon Moses, declared: "The law is made for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, male prostitutes, sodomites, menstealers, for liars, perjurers and whatever is contrary to sound doctrine that conforms to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust" (I Timothy 1:9-11).

Any behavior not in accordance with "the glorious gospel of God" belongs to the Law, which as the prophet Paul wrote is a jurisdiction foreign to Jesus Christ. This is confirmed in the case of the Brother who was in incest with his father's wife. I Corinthians 5:4-5, "When you are gathered in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, hand this man over to Satan, so that the sinful nature may be destroyed and his soul saved in the day of the Lord".

In Rulers of Evil, Tupper Saussy wrote, "Scripture reduces all human interaction to two great ministries: the ministry of Condemnation (II Corinthians 3:9) and the ministry of Reconciliation (II Corinthians 5:18). Condemnation is the rulership of evil by law; it judges and does justice. Since its subject is the criminal mind ("the strength of the law is sin"), condemnation requires the brilliance of the firstling, Cain, along with the deviousness of Jesuitry and Sun-Tzu. Condemnation enforces its authority with deadly force—it "does not bear the sword for nothing."

"The ministry of Reconciliation teaches and administers the glorious gospel of Christ. Reconciliation does not judge executably or do justice. Rather, it judges spiritually, it loves, nurtures, suffers patiently, forgives, and rejoices in the truth. Reconciliation never fails because its strength is not sin but the power of God. "

"The ministry of Condemnation operates "out from the Presence of the Lord." Its only proof of divine association is an inert substance, a seal, a pallium, a miter, a collar, a badge, the mark of Cain, the insignia of its authority to terrorize evildoers. (What Brother Branham called the "mark of the beast," and a denominational "meal ticket"). The ministry of Reconciliation is directly animated by the Lord operating within. It proves divine association by everything it does: its mere existence is its seal" (p. 287:1-3).

This truth was clear in the original meaning of our English word 'evil,' which was understood as judgment, condemnation and punishment: retribution by a calamity sent as chastisement from God and forewarned by His prophets (Amos 3:1-15). "Shall there be evil (i.e. judgment) in a city, and the Lord has not done it? The Lord God will do nothing without first revealing His secret to the people by His prophets" (Newsletter 327).

What is the mark of Cain but the signature of the subtle man-like creature who seduced Eve, and of Lucifer who incarnate the beast? The mark of Cain is wisdom or reasoning against the revealed Word of God. Cain was a sophist and lawyer or prototype Talmudic philosopher.

Luke 11:46-52, "Jesus said, Woe to you lawyers; for you load men with burdens hard to bear, and you yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers. Woe to you; for you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them. So you are witnesses who consent to the deeds of your fathers: for they killed them, and you build their tombs. Therefore also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute: that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation; from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary: verily I say, It shall be required of this generation. Woe to you lawyers; for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not enter yourselves, and have hindered those who were entering".

This prophecy extends to the consummation. Revelation 18:24, "In her was found the blood of prophets, and saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth." This Babylon is Hollywood, which will perish together with her actors, musicians, craftsmen, merchants and the magical arts employed to deceive all nations when Los Angeles sinks beneath the Pacific.

Cain's mark of protection is the ungodly wisdom of a devious mind. Thus defended He hides in full view, secure in the law of which he is master and in his stolen identity. One dare not harm or even bring his people to justice for fear of a sevenfold vengeance, for they never forgive and never forget.

Cain's physical and spiritual fellow-travelers have no fear of God, yet they do fear man. Christians on the other hand, fear (or reverence) God and not man. Deuteronomy 1:17, "You shall not respect persons in judgment; you shall hear the small and the great; you shall not fear man's displeasure, for the judgment is God's. . ." Proverbs 29:25, "The fear of man lays a snare: but he who trusts in the Lord is safe".

'Fear' can mean dread that strikes terror into the heart of man as in John 7:13, "No man spoke openly of Jesus for fear of the Jews" (John 19:38; 20:19; Galatians 2:12; Esther 8:17). Believers at one with God and under preeminence to the Word have no dread terror of the Almighty but 'fear' Him in the sense of awe and reverence as a woman reverences her husband.

Proverbs 1:7, "The fear (pious reverence) of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (perception, discernment and understanding): but fools despise discipline".

I John 4:17-19, "Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as God is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love. We love Him, because He first loved us".

Fear arises from the unknown, or from a guilty conscience. Luke 12:1-12, "Jesus said (first to His disciples), Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy. For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known. Therefore whatsoever you have spoken in darkness shall be heard in the light; and that which you have spoken in the ear in closets shall be proclaimed upon the housetops. And I say to you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I forewarn you whom you shall fear: Fear him, who after he has killed has power to cast into hell; fear him."

"Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, and not one of them is forgotten before God? But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: you are of more value than many sparrows."

"Also I tell you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: but he who denies Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God. And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he who blasphemes against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven."

"And when they bring you to the synagogues, and to magistrates, and powers, take no thought how or what thing you shall answer, or what you shall say: for the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what you ought to say".

Since the Holy Spirit brings the Word to our remembrance, shows us things which must come to pass in our day, and has restored the apostolic faith and finished the mystery of God through His prophet, William Branham, Christ's end-time Bride need have no fear of the unknown. Furthermore, in every age Christ's Bride was spotless and without sin.

Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation to we who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit" (I John 3:9-12).

Every member of Christ's end-time Bride will be personally subject to a rigorous testing throughout forty days following what will be the greatest natural catastrophe since the Great Flood. Your sole hope and support will be His mind in you to know what to speak in order to operate the "third pull" (John 5:19). We will endure this trial simultaneously, but as individuals we will be alone with the living Word. This "final exam" is for you alone to receive grace for translation faith and your "practical test" will not be a public show.

God is able. Those who are His will be under preeminence to the Word so the battle will be the Lord's. The inspired Word spoken in His Name with the right motive and objective will manifest what you say. Faith alone will produce the "third pull," not determination, good intentions or self-works but God in you willing and doing His own good pleasure. So your motive and your objective must be the mind of God. Brother Branham taught us his gift was the grace to get himself out of the way so God could use him to manifest His Word. He likened himself to a microphone or radio speaker which are themselves mute instruments that can transmit only the Master's Voice.

Luke 12:32, "Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom". eb416.htm

Brightest Galactic Flash ever detected Hits Earth

February, 18 2005– A huge explosion halfway across the galaxy packed so much power it briefly altered Earth's upper atmosphere in December . . . No known eruption beyond our solar system has ever appeared as bright upon arrival. But you could not have seen it . . . In gamma rays, the event equaled the brightness of the full Moon's reflected visible light.

The blast originated about 50,000 light-years away and was detected December 27. A light-year is the distance light travels in a year, about 6 trillion miles (10 trillion kilometers). . .

"Had this happened within 10 light-years of us, it would have severely damaged our atmosphere and possibly have triggered a mass extinction," said Bryan Gaensler of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) Full story: space.com

Comment: Is it "better late than never?" No . . . these souls are imprisoned now!

Brother Branham said, "The wrath of God is belching right beneath you. How much longer He'll hold this sandbar hanging over that, when that ocean out yonder a mile deep will slide in there plumb back to the Salton Sea. It'll be worse than the last day of Pompeii. Repent, Los Angeles. Repent the rest of you and turn to God. The hour of His wrath is upon the earth. Flee while there's time to flee and come into Christ" (Choosing a Bride, p. 35:5).

"The Salton Sea is about two hundred feet below sea level . . . with hundreds of square miles, hundreds and hundreds of square miles sinking into the earth, that'll throw a tidal wave plumb to Arizona" (Ashamed, p. 9:61).

"A prophecy that I made about 1935 said: "The time would come that the sea would weep its way into the desert." Look what'll take place. If that thousands of square miles falls down into the lava of the earth and slides in, there'll be millions die at one time. And that'll cause such a tidal wave. . . Remember, plumb up into the Salton Sea is a hundred or two hundred feet lower than the sea level. That water will probably come almost to Tucson . . ." (Trying to Do God A Service, p. 6:25).

"The water will come plumb back into the Salton Sea. Los Angeles is doomed for judgment" (Works is Faith Expressed, p. 8:63).

Intensified Development raises Catastrophic Flood Risk around US, Experts Say

Saint Louis, February 20, 2006– Concentrated development in flood-prone parts of Missouri, California and other states has significantly raised the risk of New Orleans-style flooding as people snap up new homes even in areas recently deluged, researchers said Saturday.

Around St. Louis, where the Mississippi River lapped at the steps of the Gateway Arch during the 1993 flood, more than 14,000 acres (5,600 hectares) of flood plain have since been developed. That has reduced the region's ability to store water during future floods and potentially put more people in harm's way . . .

The Sacramento-San Joaquin delta, which covers 738,000 acres (295,200 hectares), receives runoff from more than 40 percent of California. Much of the land is below sea level and relies on more than 1,000 miles (1,600 kilometers) of levees for protection against flooding, according to the California Department of Water Resources . . .

. . . as much as 85 percent of the Mississippi in St. Louis is confined behind levees, which have raised flood levels 10 feet to 12 feet (3 meters to 3.6 meters) higher than they were just a century ago. That parallels the situation in New Orleans . . . Full story: enn.com

Philippines raises Alert against Mayon Volcano

The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) Tuesday raised the alert level of Mayon volcano that erupted violently in the past years in Albay Province, Central Philippines.

In an interview with local TV ANC, PHIVOLCS director Renato Solidum warned the public not to venture within the volcano's six-kilometer danger zone. Solidum said his agency has advised the Albay provincial coordinating council to be on alert level 2. The volcano's lava dome increases in size up to now, according to PHIVOLCS' watch. Albay resident volcanologist Ed Laguerta said that a low frequency volcanic quake was registered in their latest monitoring. Full story: english.people.com.cn

February 19, 2006– . . . now its official: under orders from Vice President Cheney's office, the Pentagon has developed "last resort" aerial-assault plans using long-distance B2 bombers and submarine-launched ballistic missiles with both conventional and nuclear weapons.

How ironic that the Pentagon proposes using nuclear weapons on the pretext of protecting the world from nuclear weapons.

Bush bankrupts America

February 19, 2006– Under George W. Bush's $2.77 trillion budget for fiscal 2007, federal spending would top revenue by $354 billion, following a six-year string of staggering deficits—2005's was $429 billion. And that's just for openers. Step right up, it's the greatest rip on earth!

But like the good Duce he is, he won't go away fast, at least not until he breaks the economy and he gets busted himself for his various illegalities: lying about Iraq Weapons of Mass Destruction; killing Iraq citizens and American soldiers; outing a CIA operative whose husband, Joe Wilson, caught him lying about yellow-cake uranium from Niger; okaying NSA spying on US Citizens; torturing Abu Ghraib prisoners against the Geneva Conventions; not to mention the ever-widening, well-documented case that the administration participated in and engineered 9-11.

Repeal the 22nd Amendment?

There is a proposed resolution NOW in Congress to repeal the 22nd Amendment. This Amendment limits any one person to two terms max as president. Without this Amendment someone can stay in office indefinitely. For the moment let's put aside who is or isn't in office right now and ask ourselves why was the amendment put in place to begin with? Then we must ask what impact this will have if someone we dislike is in office who does not act in the best interest of the country cannot be accused of an impeachable offense.

Jacob's Stairway to Heaven

Esau despised his birthright and traded it for a single meal, a type of Israel who rejected Abraham's grace covenant for the curse of the Law of sin and death, and the worldly church system which rejected Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming to earth in 1963 by the revelation of the Seven Seals as prophesied in Scripture, and have become souls in prison now, en route to the Great Tribulation.

God foreknew and chose Jacob from the foundation of the world because he longed for and believed in the birthright. As soon as he received the Promise it caused a separation from his brother Esau, but when a man is born-again he separates from his old church if it's carnal and from his old friends and associates. That was Paul's experience, and it is my testimony also. That yearning in his heart which hungered for God will in his life calls for a separation from the love of the world and worldly things once it has received the birthright (II Corinthians 6:14-18).

Jacob obtained his brother's birthright lawfully but stole his blessing by deceiving Isaac, their father. Esau was furious and swore he would kill Jacob after Isaac's death (Genesis 27:41). From that day, Esau/Edom has been killing Jacob/Israel to recover the birthright as we see in the present destruction of Iraq, and planned aggression against Iran, Syria and other nations thence the ten Northern Tribes were dispersed, and whence they will soon be gathered back into the Promised Land (Isaiah 11:11-12).

Jacob fled to Padan-aram in Mesopotamia to live with his uncle Laban until Esau's anger had turned away. His father sent him on his journey with this blessing: Genesis 28:3-4, "God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a multitude of people; and give the blessing of Abraham to you, and to your seed; that you may inherit the land wherein you are a stranger, which God gave to Abraham".

Note that Abraham's blessing to natural Israel was not to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Esau, but to the offspring of Abraham and Isaac through Jacob who is called Israel (John 8:33-44).

Genesis 28:10-22, "Jacob left Beersheba, and as he journeyed toward Haran he reached a certain place where he spent the night, because the sun had set. Taking a stone for a pillow he lay down to sleep, and he dreamed there was a ladder standing on the earth and whose top reached to heaven. He saw the angels of God ascending and descending on it, and at the top of the ladder stood the Lord, who said, I am the Lord God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac: I will give the land on which you lie to you and your descendants; and they shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in you and in your Seed (which is Christ) shall all the families of the earth be blessed. Moreover, I am with you, and will protect you wherever you go, and will bring you back safely to this land. I will be with you constantly until I have done everything that I have promised you."

In other words, "My constant Presence will be with Abraham's seed which will cover the earth from sunrise to sunset, and from noonday to midnight, as the waters cover the sea" (Isaiah 11:9-10; Habakkuk 2:14). It is this knowledge of the Glory of the Lord that makes you, my Brother or Sister, Abraham's seed and the Glory of the Lord (Galatians 3:27-29; I Corinthians 11:1-16; Ephesians 5:22-32). God was confirming His promise to Abraham whose name means "father of the Gentiles"—speaking here of an election from every nation, tribe and tongue of Adam's race throughout the earth who will be blessed in Jesus Christ, who is Abraham's seed. This clearly transcends the destiny of Abraham's natural seed.

"Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, Surely the Lord is in this place; and I did not know it. And he was afraid, and said, This place is awesome! It is none other than God's house, and the gate of heaven. So Jacob rose early in the morning, and he took the stone he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on the top of it. And he called the name of that place Bethel (which means "House of God"), but the previous name of the nearest village was Luz" (which means "almond tree").

Then in thankful acknowledgement of the divine assurance "Jacob made a vow, saying, If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and give me bread to eat, and raiment to put on, and bring me back safely to my father's house, then the Lord shall be my God. And this stone, which I have set for a memorial pillar, shall be God's house: and I will return to You a tenth of all that You give me".

What a beautiful promise God has given to the seed of Jacob/Israel through Christ. A ladder is a way of escape, the narrow way from earth to Glory, and represents God's covenant. His personal protection and guidance included security against Esau. It represents the history of the Old Testament and the security of the New Testament saints against the Esau's who will confront us.

As Jacob is now at the starting point of his independent development, Jehovah standing above the ladder appears in His descent incarnate as "the beginning of the creation of God," the virgin-born flesh of the seed of Jacob, the last Adam and kinsman Redeemer of the first Adam. "He that descended is the One who ascended far above all heavens that He might fill all things with His glory. He resurrected the saints who had been captive of death, made them captives of eternal Life, and gave gifts unto men" (Ephesians 4:8-11).

The Covenant is secured to the throne of God in Glory, and it stands upon earth on the sure foundation on the Rock of Jesus Christ. He could not rest the ladder on Abraham who lied about his wife, and He could not stand it upon Jacob the supplanter; neither could he subsequently base it on the Israelite nation or David who took Bathsheba in adultery and had Uriah her husband killed. Nor could He rest it on the temple, because Jesus said, "There will not be one stone left upon another that will not be thrown down" (Isaiah 6; Daniel 9:27; Matthew 24:2).

Christ was that pillar of Rock. He is the promised Seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He is God's House or dwelling place as signified by the name "Bethel" (Matthew 3:17). He is the strait Gate through which we enter New Jerusalem, and the Door to the sheepfold (Matthew 7:14; John 2:19; 14:6). Through the New Covenant we have a personal living communion with God signified by the angel messengers ascending and descending.

Tithe BoxThe tithe is sacred revenue. As the number "ten" concludes the prime numbers it expresses the completion of some whole thing. The tithe on one's increase therefore represents the whole of what was due from man to God, and recognizes God's claim on the whole, allowing the believer a sanctified use and enjoyment of what is left. "Seek ye first the Kingdom of God." Have you ever witnessed that to be the truth? Put God first. Pay your tithes first. Pray first thing in the morning. Pray throughout the day, and if you give God the first place in everything, you will be a witness to the truth of Malachi 3:8-12, "Will a man rob God? Surely not! Yet you have robbed Me. But you say, How are we robbing You?"

"You have robbed your tithes and offerings due to Me. You are cursed with a curse: for you have robbed Me, the whole nation of you. Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, so that there will be food enough in My house, and put Me to the test. If you do I will open the windows of heaven for you, and pour out a blessing so great you will not have room enough to receive it. And I will protect your crops from insects and plagues, and your grapes will not shrivel away before they ripen, says the Lord of hosts. Then all nations will call you blessed: for you will be a land of delight, says the Lord of hosts".

"Obedience to belief in faith brings promised blessings, and is better than sacrifice for unbelief" (I Samuel 15:22).

Brother Branham told how one of the Sisters was praying in her darkened room around three o'clock one afternoon when the Pillar of Fire appeared as a rainbow over the head of the Lord Jesus in a picture of the Last Supper. She watched it for a few minutes then told her sister. They watched it for a long time then called a neighboring minister and watched it together until about five o'clock. Later, during a service, the Lord gave a message in tongues: the interpretation explained that the sign had been intended as an acknowledgement of their belief in the Message going forth from the Tabernacle, and that they were going to see far greater things than this. They would even see angels ascending, and descending and ascending (Respects 2:6-7). Sabino Canyon, Sunset Mountain, Matthew 13:36-39; Revelation 4, 5, and 10:1-7 have since been fulfilled: the resurrection and translation will follow quickly.

In John 1:47-51, "Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him, and discerning the thoughts and intents of his heart He exclaimed, Here is a true Israelite in whom is no deceit!"

"When did you know me? Nathanael demanded."

"Before Philip called you, I saw you (in a vision) under your fig tree."

"Nathanael replied, Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!"

"Jesus marveled, So quickly convinced, and on the sole evidence that I discerned the thoughts and intents of your heart and reported a vision, saying, I saw you under the fig tree? You shall see greater things than this. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man".

In other words, "Nathaniel, you will see the fulfillment of Jacob's vision".

"Verily, verily" is a double "Amen." While "I say unto you" differs from THUS SAITH THE LORD only inasmuch as Christ the Lord Himself differs from the prophets. Whereas He is the Logos—Truth itself made flesh—they who speak the Word of God in the Name of God are witnesses of the truth.

Brother Branham said, "Heaven consists of the Word." The idea here is that heaven was closed before the incarnation of Christ the Word; and the beginning of His public ministry and the first recognition of His Messianic dignity is meant as the starting-point of an unbroken communion between God and man and an exchange of divine grace and human prayers (Matthew 3:16; I Timothy 2:5). Thus a closed heaven signifies missing rungs or the absence of a ladder and divine help through communion with the Word, and impending judgment (Isaiah 34:4; Revelation 6:14).

Jesus allusion to the vision of Jacob's ladder was obviously prompted by Nathanael's instantaneous vindication of His discernment, "Here is a true Israelite without deceit," when Nathanael caught the revelation and said—"Rabbi, You are the Son of God; You are the King of Israel."

Jacob, the first Israel, saw heavens opened, but only in a dream. The living intercourse between God and Israel announced itself and had begun in the old theocracy with the Lord standing above the ladder speaking from heaven. Jesus told Nathanael that what the first Israel saw in a dream was now fulfilled in reality: the Lord and last Israel had descended to earth by the ladder of the Old Covenant in the Office of Son of Man, and was speaking with Nathanael face to face. The Word was made flesh and the tabernacle or house of God was with men; communication between heaven and earth was wide open, for Jesus is also the gate of heaven.

Jesus Messiah is the beginning of the Logos being created into the flesh of God's Family through faith in the spoken Word in its season. Christ's Bride is the continuation of the same creation just as Eve was a continuation of the creation of Adam (Revelation 3:14; I Corinthians 3:16-17; Revelation 21:22). The Bible is the story of God changing His form from the Eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts into the flesh of His glorified Family.

By the grace of God this revelation and experiential communication with the Lord God is not strange to the end-time Bride of Christ. But to the vast majority of sincere nominal Christians today it is all one way, as it was for most Israelites in the days of His flesh. To both groups it seems God is "long distance" as Elijah implied to the priests of Baal, "Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleeps, and must be awakened".

Daniel's sixty-ninth week of the Hebrew dispensation ended with the crucifixion of Messiah, and although Israel had rejected His ministry, it continued when He descended into the realm of the departed. There He vindicated the faith of the Old Testament saints thereby preaching condemnation to the souls of sinners in the same dimension, who, having spurned mercy in their lifetime when they might have repented, could now no longer be forgiven, and were lost. Nothing remained for them but the judgment (Hebrews 9:27).

Jude 5-6, "I will therefore put you in remembrance, though you once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. And the angels which kept not their first estate (of faith in the Word of God's promise to Abraham), but left their own habitation, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day." Of the adults who left Egypt, only Joshua and Caleb lived to enter Canaan. Their generation all died physically: most became souls in prison, lost the instant God removed their names from the Book of Life (Psalm 95:11; John 6:49).

II Peter 2:4-5, "For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them into hell, chained in darkness until the judgment day; and spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the Flood upon the world of the ungodly . . ."

These "angels" were foreknown of God and on the Book of Life in heaven since they were sons of Adam. But they entered misalliances with the daughters of Cain and when they rejected Noah's Message their names were removed from the Book of Life (Genesis 6:1-4). I Peter 3:18-20, "For Christ also once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God. Though His body died, His soul lived on, and quickened by the Spirit He went and preached to the souls in prison; who were disobedient during the longsuffering of God in which He withheld judgment while Noah was constructing an ark wherein eight souls were saved through the water. Its counterpart, water baptism, saves us now, not because our bodies are washed clean by immersion, but by faith through the earnest seeking of a conscience that is clear in God's Presence through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, who has gone into heaven and sits at the right hand of God, with angels, authorities and powers subject to Him".

It is not by self-works that are we received of God and put on the character of Christ, but by grace through faith whereby the revelation of His mind in us cleanses our soul of all unrighteousness as typed by Israel's waters of separation (Ephesians 5:26; Numbers 19:9). This simple revelation exposes the folly of the Two Souls cult.

These "angels" were not supernatural beings but unrepentant sinners: mortal men like the "angel" David (Hebrews 2:1-7). Revelation 12:3-4, "There appeared another sign in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns on his heads. (This was Imperial Rome in the days of our Lord). And his tail (propaganda or false prophecy) drew the third part of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered, to devour her child as soon as it was born".

The third part of the stars of heaven, or Adam's fallen race, is Shem. Satan sought to destroy the prince of the house of David in his infancy. By deceiving the Israelite nation and uniting their priesthood with Rome he caused them to crucify Messiah. Hereby their names were removed from the Book of Life and they were metaphorically cast down to earth, becoming souls in prison while they lived, with no hope in this world or in the world that is to come.

If your name is on the Book of Life you are ordained to become an angel or messenger of God, because as a son of Adam you are by inheritance a son of God. But since you are on free moral agency, you can choose, or you may refuse. Souls that have been removed from, or like Cain's descendants, were never in the Book of Life, are angels of Darkness. Galatians 1:7-9, "There are some who trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you have received, let him be accursed".

By God's foreknowledge of how we would exercise our own free will, we are each predestinated to Glory or damnation.

Brother Branham's ministry revealed Jesus Messiah the same yesterday, and today, and forever, as prophesied in Luke 17:28-30. As Brother Branham was baptizing in the Ohio River, the Pillar of Fire manifest in the form of a star, and a Voice from heaven said, "As John the Baptist foreran My first Coming, your Message will forerun My second Coming"—the image of John's baptism of Jesus in the river Jordan. Veiled behind the flesh of this sinner-saved-by-grace, God discerned the thoughts and intents of men's hearts, healed the sick and raised the dead, as He had done behind Messiah's virgin-born flesh.

Brother Branham said all ministries have three pulls. Noah's third pull was to the lost after God had closed the door to the ark and let it sit seven-days on top of a mountain. Mercy was over, for no one could enter and those aboard were sealed for deliverance. The third pull in the days of Lot came after Abraham had implored God to save Sodom and the five cities on the plain if He could find two righteous men in each city. Ten could not be found so God departed from His elect and destroyed the city. Moses' third pull was when he poured water on the ground and it became blood, a symbol of death.

The third pull of Christ's end-time Bride is to preach to souls who are imprisoned now behind the bars of their sinful minds in man-made religious systems; many of them 'good people,' but forever condemned: lost through unbelief in the revealed Word for their day (Revelation 11:8-11). There is a ministry of reconciliation, but there is also a ministry of condemnation. When the Word of reconciliation has been refused, unbelief makes it the Word of condemnation (John 3:18; Isaiah 61:2).

The other aspect of the "third pull" is given to produce translation faith in the heart of the Bride but this will not manifest in the fullness of its power until after Satan has been cast down to earth. At that time Rome and her (once) Protestant image will apply the "squeeze" to shut down or restrict the ministry of the Christian Church and bring us under submission to the World Council of Churches. Let me assure you from personal experience, Satan has laid his groundwork, and without the express intervention of God through the unity of the faith you will not escape. But watch the "third pull" when you are pressed out of society. It will condemn those who are totally lost, but it will be the blessing of the Bride to start translation faith unto the going away by providing for our needs, even restoring missing limbs as we speak the Word.

Praise the Lord for Jacob's ladder of the New Covenant that rests upon the Rock of the Lord Jesus Christ, and for God's prophet through whom He has restored the apostolic faith, finished the mystery of God, introduced Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming, and is calling the wise and foolish virgin out from all man-made systems into the unity of the faith, for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation. eb417.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This issue marks the eighth anniversary of Bible Believers' free weekly Newsletter. Please printout or email a copy to share with your friends who might otherwise never encounter the present truth—what Jesus is doing now, and invite them to subscribe.

The Lord Jesus answered your effectual, fervent prayers last week with abundant grace and we thank you dearly. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but truth, prayer and faith in the living Word of God. Now is the time to transform our intellectual faith into "third pull" experience for this "squeeze" is coming not just against myself, our little Church and Website: we are simply among the forerunners of religious oppression. May our predicament be a sign of the times and a warning to you.

News in this and previous issues of our Newsletter confirms the parallel government has legislation and infrastructure in place whereby national force will put the church in the World Council of Churches and incarcerate dissenters. But while Christ and His end-time Bride are coming into one mind in one Place, Satan and his demons are roaming around like a roaring lion on the open veldt, seeking whom they may devour.

The Seven Seals represent Spiritual warfare. Israel's Seven Trumpets represent natural wars. Believers in Christ worldwide will be persecuted following Israel's Seventh Trump at the close of the Gentile dispensation, when earthquakes sink Los Angeles and destroy al Aqsa Mosque, bringing war upon Israel unto the consummation. Whereas after a brief and powerful display of the Supernatural, Christ's hunted and persecuted little flock will go to be with the Lord, the foolish virgin and other classes of the "saved" will be hunted down like dogs by Judaeo-Communist and Roman parties, and lay down their lives for their testimony (Revelation 12:17).

Now is the time for us to exercise our faith muscles and have our judgment exercised to discern both good and evil. Christ's Bride will be on earth at the start of the Tribulation, and unless we possess the Life of Christ before the end of the Gentile dispensation, we will not be able to manifest that we are the Sons of God in the start of Jacob's trouble. Now is the time to examine ourselves.

Last week I had a lovely conversation with a nun I met on the subway. On the journey I was able to explain how God had sent us a prophet whose Message restored the apostolic faith, finished the mystery of God, introduced Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming, and is calling the wise and foolish virgin out from Rome and her (once) Protestant daughter churches into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation. She was thoroughly versed in the Scriptures and had no difficulty in seeing what I was sharing with her from God's unchanging Word.

Once again we welcome Israeli author and contributor, Brother Israel Shamir. In another of his plain-speaking essays he writes of the rapid rise of Jewish racial supremacism and how their holocaust religion is being enforced in challenge to the substitutionary death of Messiah on Calvary's cruel cross. This is necessary to reinforce the blasphemous claim of the Babylonian Talmud that "Without metaphor the Jewish people as a whole will be its own Messiah." It will attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy, and by the establishment of a world republic in which the Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship. In this new world order the children of Israel will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition" (Baruch Levy, in a letter to Karl Marx, La Revue de Paris, p. 574, June 1, 1928).

The Governments of the different peoples forming the world republic will fall without difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then be possible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property, and everywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus will the promise of the Talmud be fulfilled, in which is said that when the Messianic time is come, the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their hands" (a perverse interpretation of Isaiah 66 ibid, p. 574).

"The nations will gather and pay homage to the people of God: All the fortunes of the nations will pass to the Jewish people, they will march captive behind the Jewish people in chains and prostrate themselves before them, their kings will bring up their sons, and their princesses will nurse their children. The Jews command the nations: they will summon peoples whom they do not know, and people who do not know them will hasten to them. The riches of the sea and the wealth of the nations will come to the Jews of their own right. Any people or kingdom who will not serve Israel will be destroyed" (a similar perversion of Isaiah 66 by Rabbi Isidore Loeb, La Literature Des Pauvres Dans La Bible, p. 219-220).

According to the Jew's false messianic tradition, whilst the laws of Torah and Talmud, amounting to 613 commandments, were granted by God solely for Jews as his Chosen People, we satanic, animalistic Gentiles are to be tamed under the seven laws of Noah.

According to Adept and Prince of Masonry, Albert Mackey, who wrote the Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, "After Noah's emergence from the Ark, he is said to have promulgated seven precepts for the government of the new race of men of whom he was to be the progenitor . . ." This is unscriptural and impossible, as the woman Noah took with him in the ark was Naamah, sister of Tubal-cain, the Serpent's seed. Ham was the progenitor of her illegitimate son, Canaan, so we continue to have the race of Cain along with the race of Adam and the enmity God set between them is extant (Genesis 9:18-28; 3:15).

In analysing current world events and studying prophetic and historical facts, as distinct from believing the lies presented by Rockefeller's franchise on education and the media, you will have recognized these plans of the 'hidden hand' being executed by jelly fish we elect to govern our Hegelian sham democracies, and how the Protocols are enforced by an expenditure of Gentile blood and taxes "for fear of the Jews" who assert:

"We must be in a position to respond to every act of opposition by war with the neighbors of that country which dares to oppose us: but if these neighbors should also venture to stand collectively together against us, then we must offer resistance by a universal war. The principal factor of success in the political is the secrecy of its undertakings: the word should not agree with the deeds of the diplomat" (Protocol VII:3-4).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

The Truth is out There!

February 21, 2006– US wants holocaust records released that will prove factually only 74,000 people died in World War II concentration camps! Records from International Red Cross are housed in Germany, but German government says the records should be kept secret.

Of course they want the records kept secret; those official records prove the holocaust is a huge lie. If those records come out, it will prove that only 74,000 people died in those camps during WW II, and they died from disease and starvation . . . nothing else.

When the German People find out they've been forced into collective guilt for 60 years over a LIE, they will oust the German government. While the German government worries about being ousted, Jews are FAR more concerned. These records will expose Jews as having intentionally lied for decades. The records will prove that people in those camps were reunited with their families but that many of those families deliberately defrauded people for years; claiming benefits for a "holocaust" which did not happen. Full story: halturnershow.com  timesonline.co.uk

Comment: According to the Auschwitz Death Registers captured in 1945 when the Red Army overran Germany and released to the Red Cross in 1989 by Mr. Gorbechev, 74,000 persons died in Auschwitz, mostly from disease resulting from the disruption of supplies owing to allied bombing at war's end. Of these, approximately 30,000 were Jews.

Bush's Mysterious 'New Programs'

February 21, 2006– a new target for the administration's domestic operations—Fifth Columnists—supposedly disloyal Americans who sympathize and collaborate with the enemy. . . Top US officials have cited the need to challenge news that undercuts Bush's actions as a key front in defeating the terrorists, who are aided by "news informers. . ."

The New York Times reported "KBR would build the centers for the Homeland Security Department for an unexpected influx of immigrants, to house people in the event of a natural disaster or for new programs that require additional detention space. . ."

There also was another little-noticed item posted at the US Army Web site, about the Pentagon's Civilian Inmate Labor Program. This program "provides Army policy and guidance for establishing civilian inmate labor programs and civilian prison camps on Army installations . . ."

Despite the Posse Comitatus Act's prohibitions against US military personnel engaging in domestic law enforcement, the Pentagon has expanded its operations beyond previous boundaries, such as its role in domestic surveillance activities. . . As the administration scoops up more and more names, members of Congress also have questioned the elasticity of Bush's definitions for words like terrorist "affiliates," used to justify wiretapping Americans allegedly in contact with such people or entities. . .

. . . a form of martial law already exists in the United States and has been in place since shortly after the 9/11 attacks when Bush issued Military Order No. 1 which empowered him to detain any non-citizen as an international terrorist or enemy combatant. . . the American people might legitimately ask exactly what the Bush administration means by the "rapid development of new programs," which might require the construction of a new network of detention camps.

Constitution has been ripped to Shreads

The revised version of the Patriot Act is on a fast track for congressional approval, indicating the level of corruption in the US Senate calls for each and every Senator to be removed from office on charges of treason.

While millions of Americans throughout the country protest the erosion of their privacy rights, the hijacking of the US Constitution is in its final stages on Capitol Hill, as the severe revisions of the Patriot Act are set for "permanent" approval. . .

While the corrupt powers, including the mainstream press, have pinned the terrorist threat on al Qaeda solely, many Americans have come to the sad conclusion the "real enemy" resides within the US government.

And those who have come to this conclusion say the real reason for passage of the Patriot Act is to deflect attention to a "phony enemy" while at the same time allowing the criminals within the US government the ability to keep their cover by controlling any dissident movements. . .

Killer Drought threatens East Africa

In cracked riverbeds once flowing with water, dozens of hippos lie decomposing in the stifling heat. The thin, delicate frames of rare Grevy's zebras lie on parched grass, felled by anthrax. The wildlife in East Africa is dying of thirst and starvation, the people are suffering—and now the lack of rain threatens even the Serengeti migrations.

Judge tosses Case of Atheist vs. Priest

Rome, February 10, 2006– An Italian judge has dismissed an atheist's petition that a small-town priest should stand trial for asserting that Jesus Christ existed, both sides said on Friday.

Luigi Cascioli, a 72-year-old retired agronomist, had accused the Rev. Enrico Righi of violating two laws (one barring "abuse of popular belief," or fraudulently deceiving people; and another barring "impersonation" or personal gain from attributing a false name to someone) with the assertion, which he called a deceptive fable propagated by the Roman Catholic Church.

"The Rev. Righi is very satisfied and moved," Righi's attorney, Severo Bruno, said. "He is an old, small-town parish priest who never would have thought he'd be in the spotlight for something like this." . . Full story: beliefnet.com

Comment: "Open season" has been declared on "small-town parish ministers" and believers in Jesus Christ. Vexatious and frivolous litigation has also been brought against our "small-town" Church (John 3:18).

For Whom the Bell Tolls

By Israel Shamir

David Irving was sent to jail for denying Jewish superiority. His doom seals the reign of freedom that began with the fall of the Bastille.

"Do not ask for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee," said the English poet, John Donne. A shameful Austrian verdict bodes ill not only for the English historian David Irving (sentenced to three years of gaol) but for our freedom as well. Never has our feeling of justice been insulted like this! When an occasional dissident was jailed in Brezhnev's Russia or Ne Win's Burma, there was always an uproar of protest. Now the only response to the Irving verdict is stunned silence. When they sent innocent Muslims to the living hell of Guantanamo, we could think: they are people of the Third World: different rules apply. A Batista policeman in Graham Greene's Our Man in Havana had said: some people can be tortured, and some can not. When Ernst Zundel was kidnapped in the US and brought to trial in Germany, we could think: it is a German internal affair. Now an eminent man of letters, an author of widely read and acclaimed books, a recognized European figure was snatched from a civilised country and jailed for irreverence to the Jews.[1]

Technically, David Irving was sentenced for so-called "holocaust denial." But the concept of the Jewish holocaust being the only enforced dogma of supposedly secular Europe has little to do with the Second World War and its atrocities. It has everything to do with the Jewish claim of superiority and exclusivity. There is a Jewish prayer saying: "Bless you, Lord, that you created me a Jew, that you separated between Jews and the earth folks, like you separated between the Holy and Profane, that our fate is not like their fate." The Holocaust concept is just another form of this prayer. They say that even their death is not like the death of anybody else. We must deny the concept of Holocaust without doubt and hesitation, even if every story of Holocaust down to the most fantastic invention of Wiesel were absolutely true. Therefore the technical discussions of Jewish mortality are perfectly legitimate but superfluous, just as the argument whether a great fish could swallow Jonah is superfluous to an atheist.

Legal enforcers of the Holocaust want us to bow down to the idol of Jewish superiority, or else! They won't jail Deborah Lipstadt for denial of the Holocaust of Dresden, or Guenter Lewy who penned a lengthy piece entitled Were American Indians the Victims of Genocide? denying the genocide of native Americans. Jews produced and published these denials for the same reason they published the Satanic Pictures—in order to emphasise the difference between a goy and a Jew. They want you to remember: you may profane Islam and Christianity, but not Judaism. You may discount the suffering of anybody but the Jews.

Thus we should say: David Irving was sentenced for denial of Jewish superiority. His doom seals the reign of (albeit limited) freedom that began with the fall of the Bastille. European history went full circle: from rejecting the rule of Church and embracing free thought, to the new Jewish mind-control on a world scale. Not only is Western Christian civilisation dead, but even its successor, secular European civilisation, has met its demise only a few days after its proud and last celebration by the Danish scribes. It was short-lived: about two hundred years from beginning to the end, the Europeans may once have had the illusion that they can live without an ideological supremacy. Now this illusion is over; and the Jews came in the stead of the old and tired See of St Peter to rule over the minds and souls of Europeans.

In 1962, Look magazine invited founder of the Jewish state David Ben-Gurion to picture the world 25 years into the future. He predicted that World Government would already be in place by 1987, with the Supreme Court for Mankind (the higher ecclesiastic body) established in Jerusalem, along with a shrine there commemorating the Jewish role in the bringing-together of mankind. He was mistaken by only a few years. The world is not fully subdued yet, but it already knows its new master.

In the 19th century, Europeans could not fully colonise China. But there was an obvious mark of their supremacy: the Settlement System. It divided the residents of China into two categories: the supreme human beings (the Europeans) and the lowly natives. A native who raised his hand against a superior European was tried by European colonial law, a European whose misdeed caused harm to a native was out of bounds of native justice. This system of "settlements" was dismantled by Chairman Mao after the Communist victory of 1949. Similar systems of colonial justice went down with the colonial empires that employed them, and for a short while afterwards, every country was sovereign over its land.

Some time ago, the Knesset of the Jewish State revived the Settlement System for the non-yet-fully-colonised world: an offender against the Jews, wherever he lives, wherever he commits his offence, can be brought to the Jewish court. The offended Jew may have no connection whatsoever to the Jewish State, the offence may not be considered an offence by the local native law, but he still can be brought to Jewish justice in Jerusalem. This law claimed supreme sovereignty of the Jews over the rest of mankind. This law denied the sovereignty of all nations save one. Such a claim had to be treated as any hostile attempt of the nations' sovereignty: as an act of war. But it passed in silence due to a marvellous Jewish invention: gradualness.

This method was explained by Amira Hass, the Haaretz correspondent in colonised Palestine. She wrote: "If you throw a frog into boiling water, it will jump out and save its life. But a frog swimming in room temperature water that is gradually heated will grow used to the heat; by the time the water boils, it's too late and the frog dies. In the development of the Israeli system of control over the Palestinian people and their land, the Israeli occupation has raised to the level of genius the use of gradualness as a means of making people grow used to something." This gradualness was used by the Jews—not only in regard to the Palestinians.

The Settlement System started small: the Long Arm of the Jews snatched Adolf Eichmann in Argentina and brought him to Jewish justice in Jerusalem. Adolf Eichmann was a bad guy who did a lot of harm to Jews in a big way, so many countries chose to disregard this grievous infringement of Argentine sovereignty. And it was just the beginning:

A few years later, the Polish court demanded the extradition of a Jewish mass murderer, Solomon Morel. This Morel tortured and killed with his own hands hundreds of ethnic Germans in a concentration camp in postwar Poland. His crimes were exposed by the late American journalist John Sack. Morel escaped to Tel Aviv, and the Jewish state replied to the Polish demand with imperial haughtiness: "What Chutzpah! These natives do not know their place!" Probably, Queen Victoria would reply like that if a native African chief were to demand the surrender of one of her officials to his justice.

Since then, every country, big and small, has accepted the notion of the Jews being above the law. The wealthy Russian Jewish crook Nevzlin escaped Russia and lives peacefully in Tel Aviv, next to Flatto-Sharon, a French-Jewish crook, not far from a murderer of a Canadian child, within reach of many other killers and crooks. A powerful Jewish organisation called Khabad wrote in its charter: there should be no Jews in goys' jails. By bribes and persuasion they release Jewish criminals from jails and ship them to the Jewish state. The Khabad founder, Lubawitsch Rebbe's birthday is celebrated as a holiday, "Education Day," in the USA.

In property cases Jews are also above the law. Jewish property is sacrosanct. They have demanded and received back all property that once belonged to Jews in Germany, Austria, France, and in the Baltic states. If a Jew had no heirs, his property went to World Jewry. But 90% of goys' property was confiscated by the Jewish state in 1948, and since then 50% of the lands conquered in 1967. Even last year thousands of dunams of goys' lands were taken over in the Jerusalem area, for a goy has no real title to property, according to Jewish law.

A taste of Jewish justice is provided in the case of an Israeli captain who murdered a schoolgirl, 13, in full sight of his soldiers. He emptied his gun unto her body and was found not guilty by the Jewish court. Actually, none of the non-Jewish children's murderers (two hundred in the last three years) was ever punished by a Jewish court. Not many of them were even brought to justice, but whoever was got off lightly. The settler Nachum Korman murdered a 10-year-old boy, Hilmi Shusha, in the village of Hussan. He was apprehended, taken to the court and forensic evidence against him was brought by the highest Israeli forensic institution, but the judge dismissed the evidence and sentenced the murderer to six months of social work. On mere suspicion of having committed such a crime against a Jewish child, a goy gets a life sentence.

Jewish justice makes us look back at the Inquisition trials with some nostalgia. When Galileo repented, he was allowed to continue his studies unhindered. The repentance of Irving did not help him a bit. The judge said: "The regret he showed was considered to be mere lip service to the law." And "independent expert" Dina Porat, head of Tel Aviv University's Institute for the Study of Contemporary Anti-Semitism and Racism, said that "Irving's purported repentance is motivated by his fear of a verdict that could amount to 10 years' imprisonment."

Now, Jewish justice is being enforced on a global scale. The European Jewish Congress is set to file a complaint in the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague against Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for "incitement to genocide," but all attempts to bring Ariel Sharon to justice predictably failed. The greater Jewish state, the US, also adopted its smaller sister's idea of unlimited supreme sovereignty. An offence against an American citizen can be brought to an American court wherever it occurred. Surprisingly, this Imperial claim, akin to the Settlement system of old, was also utilised mainly in the Jewish interests. Whenever Jewish settlers—American citizens—were killed in the course of the Middle Eastern conflict, American judges ruled against the Palestinian National Authority, Iran, Hamas and the whole world, and granted the victims' survivors multimillion dollar damages. But nobody can sue the Jews: whether they kill Rachel Corrie, the American peace activist, with a bulldozer in Gaza, or they strafe American sailors on board USS Liberty or kill and maim American Palestinians.

With the Austrian verdict, Jewish supremacy ceased to be a paranoid's nightmare, and became a fact bound in law, like the Viking supremacy in Danelaw, in East Anglia of old, with this one difference: the Jewish supremacy has religious overtones while the Vikings relied upon their swords and their dogs.

This is openly discussed in the Jewish world. "We live in the full blossom of Messiah Days, free from our political adversaries and soon to be freed from the Satanic goys', Uriel Tal wrote.[2] While Christians believe that the Second Coming of Christ will usher a completely new world of miracles, the Jewish view expressed by Maimonides is that the world in the Days of Messiah will not differ much from the world we knew, except for the triumph of Jewish supremacy, Gedulath Israel (Hilchoth Teshuva 9:2). Based on this understanding, the Sanhedrin, the Jewish supreme religious court, was established a year ago to judge the world. It is led by Rabbi Adin Steinzaltz, and the goyim who observe the Noahide commandments made their obeisance to him.

Some months ago I was brought to the police station in my home town of Jaffa, and asked to answer the complaint of the French Jewish organisation, LICRA.

– "Did you write about Jewish supremacy and world dominion?" a policeman asked.
– "So what if I did?" I replied. "Every second Rabbi has expressed this view."
– "Yes, but they see it in a positive light!" said the policeman.

Thus there is no argument about the fact of Jewish supremacy, only about its assessment. If you think it is good, you may even be a US president—if you think it is bad, your place is in jail! Meanwhile, Jewish supremacy is hard on those who challenge it as Irving did. Gradually—oh ever so gradually, so as not to frighten the frog from the heating water—the screw will tighten.

Eventually it may become unpleasant: Jewish justice can give a handsome handicap to its nearest competitor in ruthlessness, Genghis Khan. It is partial, and proud of it. By Jewish law, a Jew vs. a Goy is always right, even if he is wrong. The Europeans will feel the tender mercy of the Jews, until now the exclusive privilege of Palestinians. There may well be poetic justice in this turn of events.

Ordinary Jews aren't going to enjoy the new-old order of things. If there is something Jewish justice likes even less than a goy, it's a stray Jew. Apostates, that is Jews who turned to Christ, should be killed, according to Maimonides. The extremely clement Rabbi Asher tore off the noses of Jewish women who had intercourse with a goy, while Jewish men were normally flogged for this transgression. Well, certain obligations accompany superior status.

Christianity will probably dwindle; only its Jew-worshipping sects, similar to the US Christian Zionists, will survive. Others will be prosecuted for their antisemitism and will be disbanded. The churches will be destroyed, in accordance with the Jewish commandment. They should not be allowed to compete with the Temple in Jerusalem which will be rebuilt on the ruins of the al Aqsa Mosque. The rebuilding will be quite painless: after the forthcoming attack on Iran, Muslims will have other things to worry about—for instance, their physical survival! This can't be guaranteed, as they were proclaimed "Amalek," and their mass annihilation is a religious duty of the Jews. The road to this future is opened by the fateful ruling of the Austrians.

Always looking for the bright side of things: now the Europeans do not have to worry about the dark prophecy of the Protocols. "The rule of the Elders of Zion is already upon us, and egad!– it is not half as bad as we feared. At least . . . not yet".

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Robert Faurissson

Our guest contributor is revisionist historian Professor Robert Faurisson, who, as you see, is a veteran wounded in the war for truth in history. Truth is a word, and like all words, is used, and misused, and confused. The truth is to do with a logical and practical appreciation of life; it is not an imagined, selfish truth of airy-fairy ideology. No, our truth is just "the truth." Every lying persuasion, cancer-like, deforms the logical ability of the brain.

Edward L. Bernays is credited as the original genius of Public Relations propaganda (PR). His work brought quick advance to the science of mind manipulation: and manipulators, prideful, now reveal new dimensions of their inhuman trade.

At first it seemed this could be fixed by exposure of simple facts, people then would understand this trickery and, just by seeing it, the problem would be fixed. But, as time passed, it became clear that people could no longer believe, or not always accept, the obvious. We had to look to a broad spectrum and avoid extremists who confuse all reform by falling for so many of the manipulators' decoys.

Looking at various aspects of mind manipulation we see that Public Relations as a commercial tool is in disguise of its true use. The true use of PR is political/cultural manipulation. It has proven that it can get an unknown candidate elected before one known and respected; create public support for war; infuse hate and promote (by the use of Hegelian Dialectic principles) all aspects of the deadly humanist ideology now ruling culture. Our Lord Jesus has promised, "If you continue in My Word, then you are My disciples indeed; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free".

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive "the truth" is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything presented here should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,
Anthony Grigor-Scott

Who was behind the 'Danish' Cartoons?

February 23, 2006– Mainstream media coverage of the anti-Islamic cartoons ignores the fact that the publication of the images was a "calculated offense" commissioned by a Jewish "Danish" colleague of the Jewish neo-con ideologue Daniel Pipes and was meant to incite violence and promote the Jewish "clash of civilizations" between Muslims and Christians . . .

"The rioting that has erupted across the Middle East is a predictable if overwrought reaction to what now seems like a calculated offense against Islam," the Miami Herald wrote in its lead editorial on February 7, 2006. "It is not necessary to reprint the offending cartoons for US readers to understand the issue," the Knight-Ridder paper said. "A religious taboo was violated, and those involved knew full well what they were doing. The incident fell all too neatly into the hands of those who would exacerbate tensions between Europe and the Muslim world."

The Zionist Flemming Rose, the cultural editor of Jyllands-Posten (JP), is the person who commissioned and published the offensive cartoons knowing that the images would exacerbate tensions between Europe and the Islamic nations. . .

In an article entitled "Cartoons and Islamic Imperialism", written as the Danish embassies smoldered, Jewish Pipes framed the "key issue at stake in the battle over the 12 "Danish" cartoons. "Will the West stand up for its customs and mores, including freedom of speech, or will Muslims impose their way of life on the West? Ultimately, there is no compromise," Pipes wrote! "Westerners will either retain their civilization, including the right to insult and blaspheme, or not."

Repeated questions to Rose, Pipes, and the editors of JP about whether Europeans should also have the right to "insult and blaspheme" the Zionist Jewish version of the "Holocaust" went unanswered. . . Full story: tehrantimes.com

Comment: Multiculturalism leads to miscegenation, and a repetition of the original sin, which so grieved God He allowed man to destroy all life in Noah's Flood, and is accursed of God! Jesus said this sin would repeat in our day and result in the consummation by (atomic) fire. The once Christian West, ever anxious to serve human reasoning rather than the clear commandment of God's unchanging Word, is now wretched and miserable, Spiritually blind, morally bankrupt, naked of the Blood of the last Adam, and snared in the Hegelian trap of those God set at enmity against the first Adam (Genesis 3:16).

German Intelligence gave US Iraqi Defense Plan

Washington, February 27, 2006– German intelligence agents in Baghdad obtained a copy of Saddam Hussein's plan to defend the Iraqi capital, which a German official passed to American commanders a month before the invasion, according to a classified study by the United States military . . . Egypt gave access for refueling planes, while Saudi Arabia allowed American special operations forces to initiate attacks from its territory . . . Full story: truthout.org

Who Benefits?

February 24, 2006– Abdul Jabbar Waheed, the head of the Misan provincial council in southern Iraq, announced his councils' decision to lift the immunity British forces have enjoyed, so that the soldiers who beat the young Iraqis can be tried in Iraqi courts. . . This deeply meaningful event, if replicated around Iraq, will generate a huge rift between the occupiers and local governments. A rift which, of course, the puppet government in Baghdad will be unable to mend.

The other huge event which drew Iraqis into greater solidarity with one another was more photos and video aired depicting atrocities within Abu Ghraib at the hands of US occupation forces. The inherent desecration of Islam and shaming of the Iraqi people shown in these images enrages all Iraqis . . .

The horrific attack which destroyed much of the Golden Mosque generated sectarian outrage which led to attacks on over 50 Sunni mosques. Many Sunni mosques in Baghdad were shot, burnt, or taken over. Three Imams were killed, along with scores of others in widespread violence. This is what was shown by western corporate media.

As quickly as these horrible events began, they were called to an end and replaced by acts of solidarity between Sunni and Shia across Iraq. This, however, was not shown by western corporate media. . . Full story: truthout.org

Comment: Unseen and behind the scenes, the 'hidden hand' is determined to divide and conquer the world, and will force war upon innocent Islam who want peace. These unfortunate "pawns" in the millennium endgame are being brought from Russia into the United States so homefolks will find out what "divide and conquer" and the "squeeze" is all about.

A Judicial Green Light for Torture

February 26, 2006 - The administration's tendency to dodge accountability for lawless actions by resorting to secrecy and claims of national security is on sharp display in the case of a Syrian-born Canadian, Maher Arar, who spent months under torture because of United States action. A federal trial judge in Brooklyn has refused to stand up to the executive branch, in a decision that is both chilling and ripe for prompt overturning.

Mr. Arar, a 35-year-old software engineer . . . was detained at Kennedy Airport in 2002 while on his way home from a family vacation. He was held in solitary confinement in a Brooklyn detention center and interrogated without proper access to legal counsel. Finally, he was shipped off to a Syrian prison. There, he was held for 10 months in an underground rat-infested dungeon and brutally tortured because officials suspected that he was a member of Al Qaeda. All this was part of a morally and legally unsupportable United States practice known as "extraordinary rendition," in which the federal government outsources interrogations to regimes known to use torture and lacking fundamental human rights protections.

The Queen's Death Star

February 19, 2006– A shocking scientific study authored by British scientists Dr. Chris Busby and Saoirse Morgan: "Did the use of Uranium weapons in Gulf War 2 result in contamination of Europe? Evidence from the measurements of the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE), Aldermaston, Berkshire, UK." The highest levels of depleted uranium ever measured in the atmosphere in Britain, were transported on air currents from the Middle East and Central Asia; of special significance were those from the Tora Bora bombing in Afghanistan in 2001, and the "Shock & Awe" bombing during Gulf War II in Iraq in 2003. Out of concern for the public, the official British government air monitoring facility, known as the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE), at Aldermaston was established years ago, to measure radioactive emissions from British nuclear power plants and atomic weapons facilities.

The British government facility (AWE) was taken over 3 years ago by Halliburton, which refused at first to release air monitoring data, as required by law, to Dr. Busby. . . Full story: rense.com

Palestinians Face Financial Collapse

International envoy James Wolfensohn told Middle East mediators that the Palestinian Authority faces financial collapse within two weeks because of Israel's decision to cut off tax transfers after Hamas's election win. Even if the Palestinian Authority survives the coming month with emergency funding, Wolfensohn said that "violence and chaos" would break out unless a long-term funding plan is developed for when a government led by the Islamic militant group is in place.

They argued that it was "hate speech" to deny their propaganda surrounding fictitious claims . . . Full story: honestmediatoday.com

For Hossein Amiri

By Robert Faurisson

I have not yet met Hossein Amiri, who works at the Iranian press agency Mehr News, and have not read the manuscript of the book on the "Holocaust" and on revisionism that, as he tells me, he plans to have published soon by the Center for Palestine and Middle East Records and Strategic Studies (Tehran). Nonetheless, I have been able to carry on a correspondence with him that gives me the impression of an effective activist for historical revisionism, and I consider that in this quality he deserves the support of revisionists in the entire world. In the fight that we are waging against the myth of the alleged "Holocaust" of the Jews, researchers and activists from Iran or the Arab countries remain still so few that the advent amongst the revisionists of a man like Hossein Amiri is to be warmly welcomed.

The myth of the "Holocaust" or "Shoah" is at the basis of the creation, in 1947-1948, of the State of Israel and has, with time, become that State's sword and shield. To combat this myth and its harmful effects, historical revisionism presents itself as the only possible recourse. As such, revisionism is the atomic weapon of the poor and weak against the Great Lie of the rich and mighty of this world. Without killing anyone, revisionism could undo, down to its foundations, one of the most dangerous historical lies of all time, that of the alleged genocide of the Jews of Europe (with its millions of "survivors"!) and that of the alleged Hitlerite gas chambers (which, in reality, never existed either at Auschwitz or anywhere else!).

From 1945 onwards, with the Second World War just ended, the Western European powers saw their colonies swiftly vanish. However it was precisely during this period that, paradoxically, two deviant phenomena, both born in 1948, in the very midst of that general decolonization, were seen to arise and gain strength: in South Africa, the institution of apartheid and, in the Middle East, the creation, through violence, of a racialist and colonialist territorial entity that styled itself a "Jewish State" and endowed itself with a "Jewish Army".

South African apartheid provoked such a negative reaction on the part of what one may call the international community that it wound up disappearing. But the State of Israel, at its end, has maintained itself in the land of Palestine and is, today more than ever, financed and armed by the big Western powers, first and foremost Germany and the United States. It has even become a nuclear power.

The anomaly comprised by that brutal colonization of Palestine in the middle of a worldwide process of decolonization is easy to explain. In 1945, tricked by the Jewish and Zionist propaganda machine, the peoples of the Western world let themselves be convinced that, during the Second World War, Adolf Hitler had attempted to exterminate the Jews, and in a particularly atrocious, systematic manner. Hitler, apparently, had succeeded in having six million innocent Jews killed, notably in chemical slaughterhouses called "gas chambers." Thus, in 1947, the reasoning of the members of the United Nations Organization, created in 1945, was somewhat as follows:

1.   in the recent war, the Germans inflicted hardships upon the European Jews amounting to an unprecedented martyrdom;
2.   it is therefore imperative to come to the aid of the survivors of that community;
3.   it is fitting to compensate these people by all possible means;
4.   for exceptional sufferings, an exceptional remedy: it is of course not normal to grant, albeit only in part, to one people a land belonging to another people but, for the Jews, who have suffered so much, an exception will be made, to the detriment . . . of the Palestinians. ("Why not to the detriment of the European criminals?" wondered aloud the late British historian Arnold Toynbee, himself a believer in the "Holocaust").

It is usually forbidden to grab hold of another's belongings, to chase a people out of its land through violence, to seek to enslave that people, to deny it the right to a State of its own, an army, a currency, to dictate its law and lock it up in Bantustans, keeping it in a prison whose barriers are a good deal higher and more forbidding than the "Berlin wall." Nonetheless, that is what the Jews of the Diaspora, in defiance of the most basic rules and rights, have since 1948 managed to accomplish in Palestine. They have ignored all their promises to the UN to respect, in part, the Palestinians' rights and, afterwards, they have considered all the UN's calls to order null and void. Today, the Jews and the Zionists term whoever resists them with weapons a "terrorist." Whoever speaks out against their colonialism is declared an "anti-Semite." Finally, whoever proves that their "Holocaust" or "Shoah" is, in fact, but a myth is denounced as a "denier" or a "negationist," prompted by the diabolical spirit of doubt.

"Terrorist," "anti-Semite," "denier" or "negationist": these words stamp the mark of Cain on your forehead. But the duty of the historian or researcher is to go and see, up close, the reality hiding behind those insults. And the reality in question is that Jews and Zionists have been lying and continue to lie. Their alleged "Holocaust" is a historical lie, which is extraordinarily profitable for them and, from their point of view, must be safeguarded at all costs. In the light of this exorbitant lie and this swindle of near-planetary dimensions, the actions of both the Zionists, who have gone on robbing and killing the Palestinians, and the Diaspora Jews, who approve of Zionism and fund it, are all the graver.

Hitler did effectively try to expel the Jews from Europe. A good number of other countries before Germany, through the millennia and up to modern times, had wished to proceed with an expulsion of the Jews from their respective territories. On the motives for this quasi-universal rejection, the first page of Jewish writer Bernard Lazare's 1894 book "Anti-Semitism: Its History and Causes" is worthwhile reading. In a summing-up, he wrote that it was by their very own conduct, in every place and at every time, that the Jews, at first welcomed, in the long run brought on the natives' impatience and revolt.

Before and during the war, on numerous occasions and even as late as in April 1945, Hitler and the National Socialist leaders publicly proposed that the Allies take the Jews of Europe into their own countries. "Have them, these Jews you find so wonderful; we'll make a present of them to you. Why do you hesitate?": the National Socialists put it in words clearly to that effect. Apart from a few rare cases, the Allies replied either with silence or refusal, for they knew perfectly well that Hitler was not at all going about exterminating the Jews. We have, for example, documentary proof that the senior Allied officials did not believe the madcap stories of gas chambers, a fact that explains why, either during or after the war, Churchill, De Gaulle, Eisenhower, Stalin, Benes and others of their station never spoke of those vaudeville-hall monstrosities. Hitler sought merely to achieve a "final territorial solution to the Jewish question." The court historians systematically erase the cumbersome adjective "territorial," preferring to speak only of a "final solution" and, thanks to this wrongful shortening of a phrase, let people understand that it was a matter of solving the Jewish question through a methodical extermination! Hitler, in reality, wanted to see a territory reserved for the Jews somewhere outside of Europe, but not in Palestine.

Still, in the face of the practical impossibility of ridding himself of a few million Jews or of finding them a territory during the war, he decided to pen a certain number of them (not all!) in concentration camps or labor camps, hopeful of resolving "the Jewish question" after the end of the conflict. Despite the efforts made by the camp administrators and physicians in the field of health and hygiene, dreadful epidemics, particularly of typhus, wreaked havoc there. It must be said that, for some generations, typhus had been endemically rife among the Jews of the East. In the last months of the war, especially under the effects of Anglo-American bombing raids and the steady incursion of Soviet troops, Germany lived through an apocalypse and, what with the paralysis of her industries and transport, everyone's lot worsened considerably. When the Allies liberated the camps, they insistently photographed the dead and the dying and diffused the images throughout the world, whilst keeping to themselves their photographs showing crowds of internees who, in spite of all, had remained in good health. They filmed the crematory ovens as though the Germans had used them to kill people whereas those ovens had served to incinerate corpses, cremation being a more healthful and modern method than burial, especially in places where the risks of epidemics and contamination reigned. The Allies also showed disinfection gas chambers as if they had served to kill detainees whereas in reality they were used to disinfect clothing and, thus, to protect the health of all. They exhibited cans of an insecticide (Zyklon B) as if that product had been employed to asphyxiate humans whereas it served to kill lice, carriers of typhus. They showed piles of hair, shoes, eyeglasses or clothes as if those objects had belonged to the "gassed" whereas it is well known that, in all of blockaded Europe at war, with the ensuing scarcity and shortages of nearly everything, the recovery for recycling of all possible substances was carried out, including that of human hair, which was used in the textile industry of the time; therefore it was normal that, both inside and outside of the camps, numerous storehouses or workshops should be found in which the authorities had been trying to recycle all those objects and materials. In other words, to sum up, what Germany, a modern nation, had undertaken in order to save people's lives and ensure her survival in a context of both war and a war economy, the Allies managed, by a clever propaganda, to present as an enterprise of the physical extermination of human beings. That propaganda knew how to exploit the old superstitions according to which the doctor, chemist and scholar are more or less hand in glove with the Devil.

As for Germany, completely flattened as she was, there was no course open but to submit to the conquerors' will. At the Nuremberg trial and in a hundred other such courtroom spectacles, she was prevented from freely making a case in her defense and, without any veritable evidence, without any veritable technical or scientific investigation, her conquerors pronounced her guilty of incredible outrages. She bowed before them, accused herself as well and, for sixty years, her leaders and her elites have never ceased practicing the self flagellation imposed on the great vanquished nation. Germany has no other choice. Today, if ever a senior German official were to come out and denounce the lie of the "Holocaust," the resulting clamor of the Jews and the world media's indignation would take on such proportions that a boycott of Germany would be decreed, German equities would collapse in value and the country would head straight towards massive unemployment and ruin.

The revisionists have amply demonstrated that there never existed, nor could exist, a single order by Hitler to kill the Jews. We have proof that, even during the war, German soldiers or officers guilty of killing even just one Jewish man or woman could be brought to court martial, sentenced to death and shot, a fact which of course does not mean that, for example, caught in the heat of battle, notably in the face of snipers and partisans, German troops, like all other troops in the world, were not capable of committing excesses or outrages towards civilians. There did not exist in National Socialist Germany any order, directive, or instruction telling anyone to murder Jews. Nor did there exist any measures for the monitoring of the purported extermination project: no budget, no agency nor any official in charge of carrying out such a policy. On January 20, 1942, at the gathering called "Wannsee Conference," fifteen German officials vaguely discussed for a few hours a program of expulsion of the Jews from the European domain and, provisionally, whilst awaiting the war's end, of putting to forced labor those among them, men and women, who were able to work. During the same meeting, there was envisaged a Jewish "renewal" somewhere outside of Europe after the war, with a "germinal cell" made up of the best elements, i.e. those Jews who would have survived the deportation and forced labor. Before the war, and still in the early stages thereof, the Germans had seriously considered as a solution the settling of European Jews on the island of Madagascar. In doing so they were taking up an idea that had been studied in 1937 by the Polish, French and British authorities, and even by the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, but, with the intensification of the conflict, they had to abandon that idea. As for the settling of European Jews in Palestine, they had ended up firmly opposing it. As late as in January 1944, during talks with the British, the German foreign office stated that, if the British would in fact agree to take in a convoy of 5,000 Jews comprised of children (85%) and accompanying adults (15%), it could only be on condition of accepting them definitively and of prohibiting their subsequent emigration to Palestine:

The Government of the Reich cannot take part in a maneuver aimed at allowing the Jews to chase the noble and valiant Palestinian people from their mother country, Palestine. These talks can continue only on condition that the British Government declare its readiness to accommodate the Jews in Great Britain and not in Palestine, and that it guarantee them the possibility to settle there definitively (reminder from von Thadden, of the German foreign office's Gruppe Inland II, Berlin, 29 April, 1944; document catalogued by the Allies under the number NG-1794 and reproduced in French by Henri Monneray, former assistant in the French delegation's office of prosecution at the Nuremberg trial, in his work La Persécution des juifs dans les Pays de l'Est, assemblage of documents, Paris, Editions du Centre [i.e., the Centre de documentation juive contemporaine], 1949, p. 169-170).

On January 18, 1945 Heinrich Himmler wrote in a personal note made after a meeting with Swiss president Jean-Marie Lusy, who served as intermediary with the Americans:

Once again I more precisely stated to him my view [on the Jews]. We put our Jews to work, including, of course, in heavy labor, such as road and canal construction, in mining operations, and as a result there has been a high death rate. Since negotiations began about improving the lot of the Jews, they have been assigned to normal work, although naturally they have to work, just like Germans, in the armaments industry. Our point of view on the Jewish question is this: we are not at all interested in the position taken by America and England regarding the Jews. One thing is clear: based on our decades of experience with them since the [first] world war, we do not want them in Germany or in the German living space, and in this matter we will not allow any discussion. If America wants them, we welcome that. It is not to be permitted– and for this a guarantee must be given– that the Jews whom we let out by way of Switzerland ever be transferred to Palestine. We know that the Arabs reject the Jews just as much as we Germans do and we will not permit the indecency [Unanständigkeit] of sending still more Jews to that poor nation already tormented by the Jews (original document, with Himmler's hand-written annotations, as reproduced by Werner Maser, Nürnberg, Tribunal der Sieger, Droemer Knaur, Munich-Zurich, 1979, p. 262-263).

In their common war against, on the one hand, the British and, on the other hand, Soviet communism, Adolf Hitler and the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hajj Amin Al Husseini, were allies. SS formations, such as the "Handschar" (scimitar) and "Skanderbeg" (the Albanian national hero) divisions, were either largely or wholly made up of Moslems and in various spots in Europe, beginning with France, Arabs had rallied to the German cause. In Iraq, Rashid Ali and, in India, Subhas Chandra Bose, founder of the Indian National Army, had also taken sides with Germany and against Britain.

Today, the Jewish and Zionist propaganda seeks to sully the names of those men as it the rest of the world. It accuses the Allies of having remained indifferent to the calamitous fate of the Jews. It rebukes the neutrals for not having participated in the crusade against Germany. It accuses the Vatican. It accuses the International Committee of the Red Cross. It accuses the Jews who, during the war, belonged to the "Jewish Councils" maintaining relations with the Germans. It accuses the Zionists of the Stern Group who, in 1941, offered Germany a military alliance against Britain. It rebukes all those Zionists who had settled in Palestine, along with their press, for having, during the war, received with skepticism the rumors circulating about the massacres of Jews at Babi Yar or elsewhere and about the gas chambers. It accuses the entire world, or just about.

It is high time that an end were put to this flood of accusations, which stems from the myth of the "Holocaust." Since the 1980s, important historians or other authors, some of whom of Jewish origin, have ended up realizing the solidness of the revisionist argumentation and, consequently, relinquishing entire sections of their belief in the "Holocaust" doctrine with its fake "gas chambers" and its alleged "six million victims." In parallel manner, senior representatives of Zionism have little by little found themselves compelled to relinquish entire sections of their belief in the "Greater Israel" utopia. These two beliefs, these two myths, which amount to one and the same, will finish in the rubbish bins of history.

Iran and its president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, have put themselves at the forefront in the struggle against that double myth. It is not only Palestine and the Arabo-Moslem community that should be grateful to them but, as may be seen, the entire world, or just about. eb419.htm

Second Coming of Christ

Bible Believers' Newsletter 420

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; you are welcome.

Brother Branham taught the 'kosmos' or world order is falling apart spiritually, politically, morally and economically. "It is in this age that the churches are going to come together. And as they are even now controlling world politics, they will soon control the finances of the world. Then, if you don't belong to the world organization of churches, you won't be able to buy or to sell. You will lose all. Those who stay true to God and keep their garments clean from the defilement of this 'world-system' of church orders will be physically bereft" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 265:1).

He made the private prediction, not prophecy, "that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium" (ibid p. 322:4). This came to pass as the revelation of Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming began to unfold to Christ's end-time Bride, for it is this revelation that will "terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium" as it fulfills the "shout" and "the Voice of the Archangel" of I Thessalonians 4:16.

The world is also falling apart in the natural realm. Previous issues of this Newsletter have reported the activity of the Augustine volcano in Alaska and scores of volcanoes in the Pacific Rim. Rothschild's Reuters News Service announced on January 12, that Mount Fuji in Japan has no snow. Sections of the Amazon River have dried, polar ice caps are breaking-up, and an ongoing explosion has caused a black hole to swallow a mass of about 300,000,000 stars (The Weekend Australian, January 8-9, 2006). Chicken Little will be vindicated when the Sixth Seal manifests and "heaven departs as a scroll when it is rolled together" (Revelation 6:14).

Watch for a major catastrophe manufactured by the City to provide the United States with a pretext for aggression against Iran in order to prevent trading OPEC oil in euros, which is scheduled to begin when its new bourse opens on March 20, reducing demand for and devaluing the US dollar which is presently backed by oil as sales are denominated in US dollars. Through their central banks Rothschild's world franchise over credit and money will profit whether the dollar can, for the time being, maintain its status as the world reserve currency, or is replaced by euros, provided they are able to "manage" its demise. Only US interests and "long" positions in the dollar will suffer in any serious depreciation of the greenback (I Timothy 6:10).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

Engineering Armageddon

Evidence has surfaced indicating the inevitability of major seismic events occurring soon on the western coast of North America. These events will be caused by the aggressive use of scalar tectonic weaponr . . .

Many have heard of the infamous "Ring of Fire" . . . a ring of active volcanoes that have formed near tectonic plate margins. . . . Herein lies a part of the danger to the west coast of North America. . . Alaska has more than 40 active volcanoes located along the Ring of Fire that passes through and forms the Aleutian volcanic Islands. The area is one of constant seismic activity . . .

These events are being artificially and purposefully created with bad intent using scalar tectonic weapons technology. It's been going on for some time . . .

Many of the unusual seismograms you viewed earlier show resonant scalar tectonic attacks. The waves are at the resonant frequency of the mass being attacked. That's why they appear so big and are of one frequency. Yet, while there is a lot of movement involved, the rate of these waves is very slow, so people in the area may not notice anything different. But the net mass of the target at resonance will undergo changes in its modulus of elasticity and soften . . . producing changes in the lattice structure of the material. This sets the target area up for a disaster, or stores energy that can be moved to another target.

Imagine applying that kind of force to Mt. Rainier or the San Andreas Fault or the Philippine Sea Plate, which is jammed up against Japan. The possibilities are endless. Sometimes the targeting is indirect, you push something over here to get a result over there. In recent weeks, the Galapagos Islands and Greenland have come under scalar tectonic attacks. . . Aren't the Aleutian Islands on the Ring of Fire with all those active volcanoes and continuous seismic activity? Yes they are, and things are escalating very quickly now. Alaska is one of the places where scalar tectonic weapons are located. The factions are trying to hit each other's weapons . . .

Given the current situation, unbelievably chaotic destruction is about to occur. In the case of America, a best-case scenario would be one or more magnitude 9+ earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest. These quakes will strike near Seattle Washington and Portland Oregon, resulting in tsunamis all along the west coast. If sufficient in intensity, Mt. Rainier, already sufficiently primed, will erupt explosively. Millions could die.

In a worst-case scenario, there will be many large quakes all along the west coast, and the North American plate will shear from Puget Sound in Washington to the east of Baja in the Bay of California—at the shear zone north of the mid-America trench. There have already been six earthquakes in Baja this month. This plate shear will serve to ignite the eruptions of many of the volcanoes that run from Washington State through California. The Long Valley Caldera and the Yellowstone Caldera could undergo massive eruption. It will be the "Big One" that has been talked about for years, but it will not be from natural causes, unless you are watching CNN or FOX. The destruction will decimate America. Martial law will be declared immediately. America as we know it will have come to an end.

The ash and gasses from the wall of eruptions will travel eastward, forcing people to abandon their homes and flee. The economic infrastructure of America will immediately collapse, already prepared to do so from accumulated and unserviceable national debt. There will be riots and looting from lack of food and water as gasoline disappears and anarchy kicks in. The military, badly needed to restore civil order, will be in stuck in Iraq, Afghanistan and overseas bases. Then, massive seismic events will begin along the New Madrid fault and the eastern coastline of what was once America. Everything will happen according to the operational plans of the perpetrators, for they have engineered Armageddon. Full story: weatherwars.info  weatherwars.info  weatherwars.info

Comment: As God allowed man to destroy life by the Great Flood, He will allow man to destroy life by atomic fire seven years after Los Angeles is sunk by what may well be a man-made earthquake.

In 1964 Brother Branham said, "In a few days a great earthquake's going to strike on the west. And it won't stop. California, Los Angeles will sink. It's going down. It'll slide right into the ocean." And [on Good Friday] two days after that, the Alaskan earthquake shook Alaska. It was a judgment sign" (Works is Faith Expressed, p. 8:60).

"Since that earthquake, there is a two or three-inch crack that come in the earth, starting in Alaska, goes around through the Aleutian Islands, comes out about a hundred and fifty or two hundred miles in the sea, comes back up at San Diego; takes in Los Angeles, and comes out again just below the northern part of California there, a little place called San Jose, just below there" (Ashamed, p. 9:52).

One Sunday morning in June, 1933, the Lord showed him in seven continuous visions, seven major events that would transpire before His Coming in judgment. "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America."

". . . What is left? Nothing except Hebrews 12:26. "Whose Voice then shook the earth: but now He hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven." Once more God will shake the earth and with it shake everything loose that can be shaken. Then He will renovate it. Just last March, 1964, that Good Friday earthquake of Alaska shook the whole world though it did not unbalance it. But God was warning by a world tremor what He will soon do on a greater scale. He is going to blast and rock this sin-cursed world, my brother, my sister, and there is only one place that can stand that shock, and that is in the fold of the Lord Jesus. And I would beseech you while God's mercy is still available to you, give your whole life, unreservedly to Jesus Christ, Who as the faithful Shepherd will save you and care for you and present you faultless in glory with exceeding great joy" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3,5).

US endorsed Iranian Plans to build Massive Nuclear Energy Industry

March 5, 2006– In 1976, President Gerald R. Ford signed a directive that granted Iran the opportunity to purchase US built reprocessing equipment and facilities designed to extract plutonium from nuclear reactor fuel.

In August 1974, the current Secretary of Defense, Donald H. Rumsfeld served as Chairman of the transition to the Presidency of Gerald R. Ford. He then became Chief of Staff of the White House and a member of the President's Cabinet (1974-1975) and was the Ford Administration's Secretary of Defense from 1975–1977.

The current President of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz served in the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency under President Gerald Ford. Wolfowitz is considered as a prominent architect of the Bush Doctrine, which has come to be identified with a policy that permits pre-emptive war . . . Full story: teamliberty.net

Catholic Writers recruited to support Bush War on Iraq

In old but telling news we learn that Michael Novak was hired to undermine Pope John Paul II's position.

President Bush's Ambassador to the Holy See has asked Michael Novak to develop even further his theological theory of justification for preventive war to support Bush. Novak will present his ideas in February at a conference on the just war organized by the Ambassador. In the past several months Novak, along with fellow neo-conservative writers George Weigel and Robert Royal have been publishing their own just war theories in favor of an attack on Iraq in direct opposition to the Vatican. . .

These men, close to the Bush administration and known as Neocons, represent the most powerful hierarchy in the United States. This means power, not wisdom. Full story: Houston Catholic Worker (Vol. XXIII, No. 1, January-February 2003).

Negroponte's 'Serious Setback'

March 3, 2006– John Negroponte, the US National Intelligence Director, provided testimony Tuesday at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing on "global threats."

Negroponte, who was the US ambassador to Iraq from June 2004 to April 2005, was immediately promoted to his current position after his presence in Iraq. Ironically, he warned the committee on Tuesday, "If chaos was to descend upon Iraq or the forces of democracy were to be defeated in that country . . . this would have implications for the rest of the Middle East region and, indeed, the world."

Warning of the outcome of a possible civil war in Iraq, Negroponte said sectarian civil war in Iraq would be a "serious setback" to the global war on terror. Note—he did not say it would be a "serious setback" to the Iraqi people, over 1,400 of whom have been slaughtered in sectarian violence touched off by the bombing of the Golden Mosque last week in Samarra.

No, the violence and instability in Iraq would be a "serious setback" to the global "war on terror."

But it's interesting for him to continue, "The consequences for the people of Iraq would be catastrophic," whilst feigning his concern. Because generating catastrophic consequences for civilian populations just happens to be his specialty.

If we briefly review the political history of John Negroponte, we find a man who has had a career bent toward generating civilian death and widespread human rights abuses, and promoting sectarian and ethnic violence.

He has been described as an "old fashioned imperialist" and got his start during the Vietnam War in the CIA's Phoenix program, which assassinated some 40,000 Vietnamese "subversives."

Negroponte's death squads used electric shock and suffocation devices in interrogations, kept their prisoners naked, and when a prisoner was no longer useful he was brutally executed.

Shiite Cleric Muqtada Al Sadr blamed the United States occupation for the current violence. . . "We say that the occupiers are responsible for such crises [as the Golden Mosque bombing] . . . there is only one enemy. The occupier." Full story: truthout.org

Be Strong and Very Courageous

Today we are at the very end of the third exodus of God's people. As Moses led natural Israel out from Egypt and into the Promised Land, and Paul led the Church out of Israel into the blessing of Abraham (Galatians 3:14), the Son of Man, Jesus Messiah, is leading His end-time Bride out of the church into the eternal land of the Millennium.

Moses typed church organization which failed God, for he took glory to himself when he struck the Rock a second time. This showed the insufficiency of PART-Word to bring the Church Age saints under preeminence to the Word so they could manifest the Sons of God and be translated without death at the resurrection of the sleeping saints. Moses' action signified the church in this day would crucify unto itself the Son of God afresh, as it is now doing, and die.

Joshua, who faithfully observed God's commandments to Moses, led the new generation of Israelites who passed over Jordan, a type of death, and into the Promised Land. He types our new leader, the Son of man, taking His end-time Bride into the eternal Land of the Millennium without death. The very name Joshua is the Hebrew form of "Jesus," and means "Jehovah-Saviour." Caleb, his faithful partner types Christ's end-time Bride who is under preeminence and will be changed in the atoms without death.

Like Israel in Egypt, the organized church has grown comfortable in this world. Indeed, without the Holy Ghost she is nothing but the world with God's Name on it. As the time for deliverance drew nigh, there arose a pharaoh who knew not Joseph, Roman Catholic President John Kennedy. But God sent the Christian prophet, William Branham, to rightly divide the Word of truth and define the inheritance of the nine dispensations in the Body of Christ, as Joshua had divided the Promised Land for an inheritance among the twelve Tribes, so the end-time Bride could recognize her rightful position and not impersonate the Word for and age gone by.

Joshua 1:1-9, "After the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, God said to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, Moses My servant is dead; therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you and the whole nation of Israel, into the land which I give them. Every place on which the sole of your foot shall tread I have I given you, as I said to Moses. Your territory shall be from the wilderness and this Lebanon as far as the great river Euphrates, including all the land of the Hittites, even to the great western sea."

"None will be able to hold out before you all the days of your life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with you: I will not fail you or forsake you. Be strong and of a good courage: for unto this people you will divide for an inheritance the land, which I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the Law which Moses My servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper everywhere you go."

"This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may be careful to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and have good success. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be dismayed: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go".

God commissioned His Prophet William Branham with this Scripture and spoke with him lip to ear from the Pillar of Fire as He spoke with Moses from the burning bush that was not consumed. Before he died, Brother Branham counseled: "Say only what the tapes say. Say what the visions say." He was instructing us to prove his Message with Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, to receive the mind of the Holy Spirit, and then follow the Son of man by understanding what He meant. Faith!

God had prophesied the length of Israel's sojourn in Egypt, and Moses, knowing he was born to be their deliverer and that the time was at hand, tried to effect their departure in his own strength by inciting rebellion and became a fugitive. We likewise see the cup of iniquity of the Amorites is full (Revelation 17:4; 18:6); we've seen the sign of Christ's second Coming, we know the rapture has been in process since 1963 and are anxious to receive rapturing faith that will unite the Bride as one and change our corruptible bodies to incorruption.

We look for the "squeeze" to tighten. It already holds our Church in its firm embrace. We also await a series of massive earthquakes in different parts of the world that will mark the end of the Gentile dispensation, herald martial law, force the "squeeze" worldwide and activate the "third pull" in the Bride.

Intellectually, we know who we are and what will take place just as Moses rationalized his calling and destiny but sought to fulfill prophecy by human logic—trying to do God a service without it being His will. Yet God's work is not achieved by might and power, but by His Spirit. After forty years when Moses had learned meekness the hard way, living in the outback with his hot-tempered wife, God said, "Go, and deliver My people. I will be with you, even in you so long as you speak only the Words I reveal to you" (Exodus 4:14-15; Deuteronomy 11:25; Joshua 1:5).

Speaking God's Words in Egypt produced the ten plagues of Moses' "third pull." Seeing God confirm the Words he spoke made Moses resolute and absolutely secure in the authority of divine inspiration: bold and very courageous in exercising the "third pull" with utmost confidence in the most dire situations.

God can only declare Himself in the "third pull" when He finds someone who has cast down vain reasoning and is resting in faith. Once God demonstrated his first and second pulls—turning Moses' staff into a snake and then back into a staff, and making his right hand leprous, then making it whole—all doubts were gone. Moses knew he was anointed and resolved to deliver Israel from the military Superpower of that day armed with the Word of the Lord and a crooked stick.

What Moses said God honored, because it was His mind Moses was expressing and the glory was the Lord's. But when Moses struck the Rock a second time, he took His glory to himself. We must say the right thing to God if we want Him to honor our words. Jesus has promised He will be with us, even in us to the end of the age, and if He is we will speak the truth in faith and love; only then will our Word be His mind expressed in due season with the right motive and objective. If Moses' "third pull" under the blood of bulls and goats could create billions of lice and flies and millions of frogs, then turn daylight into darkness, what will our "third pull" produce under the Blood of Christ but rapturing faith for translation from death to glorification in manifested eternal Life.

First you must have a clear revelation of your identity as a Son or Daughter of God, and know His will and purpose for you. Uncertainty will not manifest the "third pull," neither will self-confidence or bluff. God did not create the universe by chutzpah but by faith in His creative Word properly placed in its designated season. Moses knew his calling and by revelation he knew God's program and the sequence of prophetic events. He learned the hard way, that what was prophesied could not take place until every element of the vision was present. And before your expectation of the revealed Word can come to pass the details of the vision must be realized in your time-space because visions provide a glimpse of God's foreknowledge from the foundation of the world, showing you a preview of what will take place (Matthew 4:4).

Brother Branham explained this when he recalled two visions and how they were fulfilled:

"Here some time ago, you might have noticed in the paper at Denver, Colorado. They never knew what happened. The Lord had sent me over there. He showed me a place. He said, "Now, there's a place where there'll be a car parked this a way," in a vision. He said, "It's a gray car. You'll be going down the street this a way, and there's a white house. And when you look in behind there, there's a gate that opens. And there's hoe laying right down behind the gate."

And said, "There'll be a man come out and get in a car packing a briefcase. Go at the door." And said, "When you do, there'll be a woman weeping. And when you go in, lay your hat down on the bed, and then she'll pick it up and lay it over here on a television. And there'll be another lady come in with a red sweater on and set down here. Then go lay your hands on this sick baby and say, 'THUS SAITH THE LORD.'"

See? I knew what it was.

Then He showed me a man coming down. I looked, and I seen a clock. And I heard something going squeak, squeak, squeak, and I looked, and there was a man coming down in a wheelchair. That's the one the papers wrote up, in a wheelchair holding a Bible, crying. He said, "Walk out to him, and speak with him, and tell him to raise up." And said, "You'll notice that the clock, it'll be just ten minutes before three." And I got up, set about it, out of the vision.

And about two or three days after that, telegrams coming everywhere, and, "Come here to pray for this one. Come pray for that one. Come pray for this one, everywhere." You know. And after while I picked up one, and it said, "Come to Denver. A man with TB, dying. Come at once." Something just said to me, "Go."

And I didn't know where the vision was going to be. I went, got off the plane, got a cab, and went to this address, prayed for the man. Never did hear what happened. So it was a little time before the plane was going to leave, so I thought instead of calling the cab, I'll just walk down town. And I won't even think about that vision or nothing. I just knowed it was going to happen.

Started walking down the street, walking along, like that. And all at once, I heard somebody say, "Well, good-bye, Doctor," and looked around. And here come a man packing a brief case, walking down a step. And I thought, "I've seen that man somewhere. Isn't that strange?" And I looked, here sat that little gray Ford setting on this side of the street. I said, "That's the vision." And he come out. I walked on up. I said, "How do you do?"

He said, "How do you do, sir?" got in the car, drove away.

I ran over this street and looked down. There laid the hoe. I said, "This is it." Went right on up the steps, knocked at the door; lady came, she was weeping. I said, "You have a sick baby, do you, lady?"

She said, "Yes, sir." She said, "Are you a doctor?"

I said, "No, ma'am," I said, "I'm a minister."

She said, "Oh, yes, sir."

And I said, "My name is Branham. I am Reverend Branham."

She said, "I don't believe I know you, Mr. Branham."

I said, "No, I'm a stranger. Could I see your baby a minute?" She said, "Yes, sir."

I said, "Thank you." I stepped in. I asked her what was the matter; it had congested lungs, pneumonia. Little bitty fellow laying there. . . And I thought, looked in the room, just right, laid my hat down on the bed. But the lady went over and sat down; she never moved the hat. So I thought, can't say a word now, or say about the vision or nothing, just have to wait.

I just keep talking to her; never asked prayer or nothing. I said, "And your baby, how old is it? And how long you lived here?" and so forth like that. And we got to talking. Well, then she got up and got my hat after while; I'd walked over side of the bed. She got my hat and laid it over on the television, but the lady wasn't there with the red sweater on. Can't pray. See? He isn't there yet. So then I kept talking, set down again.

And then, after while, the lady come in and set down. Another lady come in, which had been out in another room, or somewhere, she come in and set down, with the red sweater on. The lady with the brown coat on got up and went out. Can't say nothing yet. Just wait there.

And when they all got setting together, just right, then I said, "Stand up just a minute." I walked over to the baby. And I said, "You don't know me. But THUS SAITH THE LORD; the baby's healed. The little baby turned over, and begin calling for its mother. That's it.

I got out of their place, and went down, started walking down; I thought, "I'll get me a cab right quick." And I ran into somebody there. And I thought, "Well, I wonder where I could catch a cab here on this corner?" I was trying to catch a cab to get out to the airport, 'cause my plane was about ready to leave. And I was trying to hail a cab like that.

And I stepped back in the side of a ten cent store there, like. And I thought, "Surely a cab come by in a minute." And I looked right across from me, and there was a clock. I thought, "It looks like I've seen that clock. Why, sure." In just a few minutes here come the squeaking of the wheelchair, and here was the man with his Bible in his hand, just exactly ten minutes to three, at perfect.

Walked out there, And I said, "Do you believe that Book you're reading?"

He said, "Yes, sir, I do."

I said, "In there holds the Words of Eternal Life."

He said, "Yes, sir. I believe that."

I said, "Did you ever read in There where Jesus heals the sick?"

He said, "Yes, sir."

I said, "Do you believe that?"

He said, "Yes, sir, I do."

I said, "In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ stand up, for THUS SAITH THE LORD, you are healed."

And he said, "You mean I can get up now?"

I said, "Get up."

And the nurse that was pushing him; she said, "Well, he can't get up."

I said, "Raise up, sir; take my word."

He said, "Who are you?"

I said, "That doesn't matter. Raise up."

He said, "Looky here, nurse." And he started running like that.

And I slipped back out of the ten cent store, went down the alley, went on the other side, and caught a cab, and went out. A piece in the paper like that, "Mystic healing of a man on the street." Never did know what happened. See? It was the Lord" (Workings of the Holy Spirit, #56-0816).

Brother Branham was demonstrating the "third pull." Like Jesus, he did nothing until the Father showed him first (John 5:19). We must be still so we can hear God speak to us and wait patiently for conditions to match His Word lest we speak in vain.

We are waiting for earthquakes to sink Los Angeles and Florida, split the Mount of Olives and ignite the Pacific ring of fire, sending tidal waves around the world. You and I can't produce these events, but I believe George II and the 'hidden hand' can, and very likely will. The evidence indicates they are working on it. Watch this space and do not leave your rest to try doing God a service without it being His will.

Brother Branham said, "Science has broke into God's great laboratory until they are going to destroy themselves."

"God always lets wisdom destroy himself. God doesn't destroy anything. Man destroys himself by wisdom as he did at the beginning, taking Satan's wisdom instead of God's Word" (Birth Pains, p. 16:1-2).

As we look upon the promises of God for this day we know the time for the close of our dispensation is at the door. However, not until all these visions and prophecies that God revealed through Brother Branham's ministry begin to come to pass will we have THUS SAITH THE LORD, "this is the day and the hour." When they actually manifest you will know that the right Words spoken under preeminence will furnish all of your needs.

No matter what the church or any other voice says, when the Scriptures come to life in the manifestation of their prophecies, look beyond your circumstances to the Promise of the "third pull," and speak the Word. If you are ordained to eternal Life you will have authority to call upon the Life of the Word to accomplish what was spoken. Faith is not restricted by natural circumstances but predicated on the Promise of God's Word.

When Pharaoh's armies had Moses and the children of Israel trapped on Nuweiba beach they became anxious for their lives, and Moses cried, "Lord, what must I do." But God had already promised "I will be with you; and this shall be a token to you, that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God upon this mount" Sinai in Arabia (Exodus 3:12).

God prophesied the end of the supremacy of the nation in which Moses was raised, and He has prophesied the subservience of the United States in which Brother Branham was raised. "I don't even pray for it" (Trying to do God a Service without it being the Will of God, p. 23:136). "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3).

In the days of Moses and the first exodus, a pharaoh rose up who did not know Joseph and in these last days a pharaoh who did not know Joseph arose in the United States, since when there has not been a Christian in the White House.

ShekinahLike Moses, Christ's end-time Bride has the perfect interpretation of the revealed Word. The Pillar of Fire has returned, God has worked many signs and miracles by His prophet, for all things are possible to those who believe, and we are commissioned to "witness his Message to many peoples and nations and tongues and kings and their relationship to God" (Revelation 10:11). In the Scriptural sense of the word a prophet is one who speaks for another as Aaron is called the prophet or spokesman of Moses (Exodus 4:15-16; 7:1). The prophets of God were His spokesmen, and Christ's end-time Bride speaks for Brother Branham. We are to "prophesy again" not the "letter" so much as the revelation of His Message, which is the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, and the "shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16 that calls the wise and foolish virgin out from Rome and the Protestant churches (Revelation 18:4) "into the unity of the faith" (Ephesians 4:13) for the "manifestation of the Sons of God," the first resurrection and the translation (Romans 8:19; I Corinthians 15:47-58).

In his sermon, "And Knoweth it Not," Brother Branham interpreted a Spiritual dream for Rev. Orland Walker, in which the Prophet who was mounted on a white horse screamed, "I'll ride this trail once more!" and the whole earth shook. He is now "riding the trail once more" in the ministry of His end-time Bride who are "prophesying again" the strait and narrow way to New Jerusalem, "turning not from it to the right hand or to the left" (Joshua 1:7).

Being "in the unity of the faith" as Jesus prayed in John 17:20-26, "The Spirit and the Bride both say, Come. And let he who hears say, Come. And let he who thirsts come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of Life freely. For I testify to everyone who hears the revelation of the prophecy of this Book, (which is Brother Branham's Message as the Book was sealed to the time of the end and revealed only to the seventh angel—Revelation 1:1; 10:4,7). If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this Book: and if anyone takes away from the words of the Book of this prophecy, God will 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" (Revelation 22:17-19).

The Amalekites are upon us, Brethren. They want nothing to do with our Jesus because He is the last Adam and not the last Cain: He could not be their Saviour even if they desired Him since He is not their kinsman (Leviticus 25:47-55). Thus they are at enmity with the children of the last Adam (Isaiah 53:10; 65:23) as they are with the children of the first Adam (Genesis 3:15). Yet we are commissioned to repeat the end-time Message by "proclaiming the day of vengeance of our God" (Isaiah 60:2; Revelation 10:11). To those who are able to become one with that Word as Jesus prayed in John 17:20-26, it brings eternal Life and peace; those who refuse are removed from the Book of Life (if ever they were in it) and become souls in prison now, pending annihilation in the lake of Fire.

Nothing can stand in the way of your commission, if you appropriate faith and are in the line of duty.

Exodus 14:13-16, "Moses told Israel, Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will work for you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see again. The Lord will fight, and you won't need to lift a finger."

"The Lord told Moses, Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward: lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it, that the children of Israel may go on dry ground through the midst of the sea".

Like Moses, we already have the promise and command of the Lord; let us not ask Him for what He has already given: that would be unbelief. As He said to Moses, "Why do you cry to Me? Speak the Word, and go forward"! As long as you have witness that you are called, elected and born-again, filled and led by the Spirit, and under preeminence to the Word, there is no need to pray or consult God about it—He has already given you authority by the Word of faith—move forward and fulfill your responsibility.

In Mark 11:23-24 Jesus said, "Whoever shall say to this mountain, (not pray to this mountain), Be removed and cast into the sea; and not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says will come to pass, he shall have what he has said. Whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours".

If you ask presumptuously it won't happen, but if you have a revelation it must happen.

John 14:12-14, "He who believes on Me the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My Name, I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My Name, I will do it".

John 15:7-8, "If you abide in Me and My Words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples".

Matthew 6:25, 32-34, "Do not be anxious for your life, what you are to eat or drink; or about your body, what you are to wear. Is not the life more important than its nourishment and the body than its clothing? . . . On all these things the pagans center their interest; and your heavenly Father knows you need them all. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. So don't be anxious about tomorrow. God will take care of tomorrow too, live one day at a time".

When Joshua was in battle against the Amorites, the Lord said, "Fear them not: I have delivered them into your hand; not a man of them shall stand before you" (Joshua 10:8). This is the revelation on which Joshua based his "third pull." Night was falling, but Joshua needed more time, "and he prayed aloud before the eyes of Israel: Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and Moon, wait in the valley of Ajalon. And the Sun stood still, and the Moon stayed, until Israel had destroyed its enemies" (Joshua 10:12-13). God cast down great hailstones from heaven as the Amorites fled, and more of the enemy perished by the hailstones than Israel slew with the sword.

Joshua was commissioned, he was in the line of duty fulfilling a revelation from the Lord, and he had a need, so he spoke the Word and God did what he had said because he had the mind of the Lord.

On a hunting trip, and separated from his brethren, the sleet, snow and wind of an approaching blizzard caused Brother Branham to retreat to the creek by way of which he would be able to find his way back to camp when his visibility was impeded. Half way down the mountain a Voice said, "Stop and go back." He retraced his steps and "after waiting a few minutes and just as plain as I've ever want to hear, a Voice said, "I am the Creator of heavens and earth. I make the wind and the rain."

I took off my hat; I said, "Great Jehovah, is that You?"

He said, "I was the One Who made the winds to cease upon the sea. I was the One Who made the waves to go down. I created heavens and earth. Was not I the One that told you to speak for squirrels and they came into existence? I am God."

Now, when a voice speaks to you, watch the Scripture. If it's not Scriptural, you leave it alone; I don't care how plain it is; you stay away from it.

I said, "Yes, Lord."

He said, "Speak to those winds and that storm, and it'll go away." Now, this Bible lays before me, which my life is in That.

I raised up; I said, "I do not doubt Your Voice, Lord." I said, Clouds, snow, rain, sleet, I resent your coming. In the Name of Jesus Christ, go to your places. I say that the sun must come out immediately and shine for four days till our hunting trip is over and I leave with my brethren."

It was just gushing, just going "Whooosssh," like that. And it started going, "Whoosh"; and then went "whew, whew, whew, whew." Stopped. . . I stood real still. My brethren up there, wondering what was happening. And the sleet and rain stopped. There came a wind whirling down through the mountain, lifted up the clouds, and one went this way: east, north, west, and south. And within a few minutes, the sun was shining nice and warm. That's truth. God knows that's truth. I just stood there, just looking around with my hat off, looking.

"I got numb all over. I thought, "The very God of creation, it's all in His hand. What's He telling me?"

And I picked up my gun, wiped off the scope, started walk back, go down the hill. And Something said to me, "Why don't you stroll with Me through this wilderness, walk with Me?"

I said, "Yes, Lord, with all my heart, would be one of the greatest things I could do was walk with You." So I put my gun over my shoulder, and I started walking down through that (never a axe laid in it), virgin timber, walking through there".

The prophet did not speak presumptuously. He was in the will of the Lord, he spoke by revelation of the Lord, and God did what he had said. That was the "third pull".

We know the "third pull" as the manifestation of the Spoken Word, but it is more common than you have ever considered. Nothing need be said, for the "third pull" is the manifestation of the mind of God when our heart is at one with Him.

Acts 5:12-16, "Many signs and wonders were done among the people by the apostles for they were all in one accord in Solomon's porch. The unconverted dared not join them, but held them in high esteem. And more and more believers were added to the Lord, multitudes of men and women, so that they brought their sick into the streets and laid them on rugs and mats so that, as Peter passed by, at least his shadow might fall on some of them. And crowds gathered from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing the sick, and those afflicted with unclean spirits: and they were all healed".

How were these people healed? By exercising faith they came into agreement with the mind of the Lord and received the grace of the Lord who is "not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." The atonement is twofold—physical healing of the body and remission of past sins (Isaiah 53:5). If we align our heart and life with God's revealed Word for our hour and situation, what we desire must come to pass because we are only asking for what we are.

Often when Brother Branham was praying for a patient on the platform, the Lord would identify others in the auditorium who were suffering from the same disease or need, and pronounce them whole. How was this? Scripture tells us "the Word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than a two-edged 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" (Hebrews 4:12).

The Word is God's thoughts, and since God is eternal and omniscient, His thoughts are complete and cannot be added to or diminished (Deuteronomy 12:32; Revelation 22:18-19). The hearts of those in the congregation who were in empathy with the plight of the patient because they were suffering from the same complaint, were raised to faith and expectation, knowing that the God who discerned and healed the sickness in the patient was also aware of their need, and could heal them as well.

All things are possible if we believe and agree with the Lord God. We must recognize and work within His Spiritual laws if we want His will to live through our life, just as we must learn and comply with the laws of nature if we are to prosper in this world.

I learnt a great deal about nature from the Jewish skipper of one of the yachts on which I sailed. Alan knew the sea, and 'Hurricane' was rigged for solo sailing. Instead of a tiller or wheel it had a joystick, and the halyards, sheets and braces, etc., all came aft to the cockpit. I learned the necessity of working with wind, current and wave to ensure safe passage and a happy landfall, for nature is more powerful than any vessel; to defy her is to court disaster, for God's laws are in nature. So the natural types the Spiritual.

Matthew 16:1-4, "The Pharisees and the Sadducees approached, and asked Jesus to show them a sign from heaven, to test him".

Let us not be like these unbelievers who never received faith although Jesus performed so many signs and wonders. All the signs God promised us in this day have already been displayed in the heavens and in the ministry of Brother Branham. God has confirmed His promises to us, let us take Him at His Word and advance.

"Jesus answered and said, When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. You hypocrites, you can interpret the face of the sky; but you cannot discern the Scriptural signs of the times! A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. And He just walked away from them," for the election was off.

If we cannot take God at His Word which He has vindicated before us in this day by many signs and wonders and miracles, and express it in our lives and lips, the election is off, and He has walked away from us.

Our generation has seen all manner of natural, Scriptural signs. The world is in a Sodom condition, and as it was in the days of Lot, three messengers have visited our Gentile civilization. God veiled Himself behind one man and discerned the thoughts and intents of the heart, revealing Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever, while the other two preached a basic salvation message to the churches in Sodom (Luke 17:28-30).

People are "running to and fro" traveling the globe; knowledge has increased, and the Son of man has returned, but the wicked continue to do wickedly, and although both the wise and foolish virgin have been called out of the denominations, only the wise will understand (Daniel 12:4-10).

Pillar of CloudThe Pillar of Fire and Cloud has been seen by millions, and photographed (Acts 1:9-11; Revelation 1:7). The dead have been restored to life, cripples made whole, the blind have received sight, and demons cast out (Luke 17:28-30). The third pull has manifest, opening Seven Seals and finishing the mystery of God for the believer. The revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in WORD form, "as a thief in the night," but only His Bride can see Him, because only God's elect can understand His Word (John 3:3).

Signs, signs. "A wicked and adulterous generation seeks for a sign," but where is faith? When the sign is given they do not believe.

Israel is in the Homeland, we live in an amoral and immoral scientific age "like the days of Noah." People scoff at the righteous as they did then but you will know the awesome vindication of God's prophet when Los Angeles sinks beneath the sea, comparable only to the Flood that vindicated Enoch's ministry (Matthew 24:32-42). This will signify that the "third pull" is in effect for the Bride alone: speak the Word, press forward, be strong and very courageous. eb420.htm

Bible Believers' Newsletter 421

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, it's good to see you.

One of our brethren sent us a letter that is doing the rounds. It concerns a book whose author claims to have discovered a secret computer code whereby he is able to confirm recent worldly events in the Bible, although some of this "history" is untrue. The book has long been exposed by competent computer professionals as another fraud designed to prey upon gullible and unstable souls and mislead genuine seekers of truth unskilled in the Word of God. The ridiculous claims of this book were allegedly commended from the pulpit of the oldest tabernacle in the circle of this Message, and this letter written by a minister was circulated by someone claiming forty year's experience in the Message.

Two virulent responses to our note and invitation to subscribe to this Newsletter whose revelation was denied by the 'elder' of forty years study confirms "they are not all in the Message who are of the circle of the Message" (Romans 9:6) My purpose in sharing this matter is to demonstrate that in the time of the "squeeze" the enemies of the Church will include those of our own household (Zechariah 13:6; Acts 1:16-17).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,
Anthony Grigor-Scott

The Most Powerful Weapon in the World

March 8, 2006– In a world where the perception is the reality, all countries need to have the capability to manage their own perceptual alignment—otherwise someone else will. We live in a global village, which is reliant on communication and perception.

Every country needs the tools to be part of that game.

brainGeorge Orwell was right on the money when he envisaged the coming 21st century as a battle based on the PERCEPTION of reality. In "1984," his classic warning to the world, Orwell told us that we would have to face this threat. . . "The Party said that Oceania had never been in alliance with Eurasia. He, Winston Smith, knew that Oceania had been in alliance with Eurasia as short a time as four years ago. But where did that knowledge exist? Only in his own consciousness, which in any case must soon be annihilated. And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. "Who controls the past," ran the Party slogan, "controls the future: who controls the present controls the past." And yet the past, though of its nature alterable, never had been altered.

Whatever was true now was true from everlasting to everlasting. It was quite simple. All that was needed was an unending series of victories over your own memory. "Reality control," they called it: in Newspeak, "doublethink" (George Orwell, 1984, Chapter 3).

Formed in 1993, SCL's customers include NGOs, police departments, military forces, municipal authorities, and the UN. According to the website, funding for SCL has been provided by a number of "private high net worth individuals" all based in the UK.

The company has invested nearly $20 million into research at what they call the Behavioural Dynamics Institute (BDI), the world's leading authority on persuasion, communication psychology and public diplomacy. Given that they are the "World's leaders" it is strange that they do not have a website.

SCL is about selling to the military and Governments, or those that wish to control the military and the Government, the tools that they need to fight and win the information war for people's minds. Full story: infowars.net

The Holographic Universe: Does Objective Reality Exist?

March 12, 2006– Physicist Alain Aspect and his team discovered that under certain circumstances subatomic particles such as electrons are able to instantaneously communicate with each other regardless of the distance separating them. It doesn't matter whether they are 10 feet or 10 billion miles apart . . .

University of London physicist David Bohm, for example, believes Aspect's findings imply that objective reality does not exist, that despite its apparent solidity the universe is at heart a phantasm, a gigantic and splendidly detailed hologram . . .

The most mind-boggling aspect of Stanford neurophysiologist Karl Pribram's holographic model of the brain is what happens when it is put together with Bohm's theory. For if the concreteness of the world is but a secondary reality and what is "there" is actually a holographic blur of frequencies, and if the brain is also a hologram and only selects some of the frequencies out of this blur and mathematically transforms them into sensory perceptions, what becomes of objective reality?

Put quite simply, it ceases to exist. As the religions of the East have long upheld, the material world is Maya, an illusion, and although we may think we are physical beings moving through a physical world, this too is an illusion . . . Full story: rense.com

Washington, March 14, 2006– The Pentagon is looking into the possibility of Israel launching a strike against Iran's nuclear facilities.

One of the main questions presented in these discussions was whether Israel would inform the US in advance in case such an attack is to take place and when would such an advance notice be given.

It has taken more than three years, tens of thousands of Iraqi and American lives, and $200 billion– all to achieve a chaos verging on open civil war.

The Devastation of Iraq by War and Sanctions

The reasons for US actions in the Middle East and Gulf are no mystery. The British withdrawal from the region, beginning fifty years ago, left up for grabs the vast oil resources and strategic area where southwest Asia and northeast Africa front on Europe. The whole region began to be shaken by anti-colonial nationalist movements. US policy makers, as an excuse for intervention, used the argument that it was exposed to Soviet seizure, with Israel unprotected on its eastern flank. . . Full story: iacenter.org  truthout.org

Reflections on the Situation in Iraq

Pseudo-transcript of Prime Minister John Howard's Address to the "Deakin Society".

Melbourne, March 12, 2006– On May 19, 2004, after my return from a visit to Baghdad, I told the Institute of Public Affairs in Melbourne that the situation in Iraq was rapidly improving. . . I said then that electricity, water, telephone and sanitation were gradually being restored to pre-war levels or above. Sadly, this did not happen. As of February this year, 125 projects to provide electricity have been cancelled. Of the 136 projects that were originally pledged to improve Iraqi water and sanitation, only 49 will be ever finished.

I said then that six major water treatment plants had been rehabilitated. Perhaps I should have pointed out that these plants had previously been destroyed by British and US bombs during the 12 years of UN sanctions against the Hussein regime. Today, the water situation in Iraq is dire. Billions of dollars have been shifted from rebuilding vital infrastructure to guarding the borders of Iraq.

I said that all 240 hospitals as well as 1,200 health clinics were fully operational, which was the advice we had received from the then administrator, Mr. Paul Bremer. Unfortunately, this turned out to be overly optimistic. On November 2004, at the start the coalition's pacification of the city of Fallujah, the city's General Hospital was occupied by US troops and—I am sorry to say—that hospital staff were handcuffed and some patients were dragged from their beds; perhaps for good reasons. Snipers were posted on the roof of the building and ambulances were strafed. On November, 6, the BBC reported that US air strikes had reduced the newly built Nazzal Emergency Hospital to rubble.

One doctor reportedly told Reuters, and I quote: "There is not a single surgeon in Fallujah. We had one ambulance hit by US fire and a doctor wounded. There are scores of injured civilians in their homes whom we can't move. A 13-year-old child just died in my hands". . . Full story: johnhowardpm.org  news.independent.co.uk  guardian.co.uk

They don't want You to remember the Oil

March 1, 2006– The USA and our British partner cannot pull out because the industrial companies our leaders have placed in charge of the oil fields all over Iraq cannot hold the territory without our troops.

Our 200,000 soldiers have to keep 15 million Iraqi's imprisoned in big city gulags so the people don't bother the folks who control and guard the oil field.

If our leaders withdraw our military, Halliburton, the Seven Sisters, and hundreds of their illegitimate brats who are profiteering in Iraq, would all have to go home. The people of Iraq have shown that they are willing to die for what they consider theirs; the Warmaker's private armies do not have the stomach for such a conflict without our full military support.

Autopsy shows Milosevic died of Heart Attack

The Hague (New York Times) March 12, 2006– The UN war crimes tribunal here said tonight that preliminary autopsy results showed that Slobodan Milosevic, the former Yugoslav president, had died of a heart attack. He was found dead in his cell Saturday.

But the day after his death, speculation remained about what might have caused the heart attack. Mr. Milosevic, 64, was believed to have taken medicines not prescribed by his physicians, including an antibiotic known to diminish or halt the effect of the medicines he was taking for his heart and blood pressure problems.

The autopsy was performed by Dutch pathologists in The Hague and two pathologists from Belgrade, Serbia, attended the procedure. Their report identified "two heart conditions" that Mr. Milosevic suffered, which they said might explain the heart attack. A toxicological report will be available later this week . . . Lawyers close to Mr. Milosevic said the autopsy could reveal substances in his blood that might have contributed to his death. . . Full story: truthout.org

A Closer Walk with Thee

This little ministry can only be of value if you prove and believe the Message we preach is the truth. And if you do believe, you will certainly see the Glory of God.

When the Angel of the Lord visited Brother Branham in 1946 he told him he would have the gift of divine healing, "And if you will be sincere and can get the people to believe you, nothing will stand before your prayer, not even cancer." His responsibility was to be sincere so the people would be confident he was speaking God's Word by commission and believe for its fulfillment. He was a servant delivering the promise of his Master. The responsibility of his listeners was to believe his Master's Voice and have faith that what God has promised He will perform.

Hebrews 11:1-6, "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of unseen realities. By faith men of God in days of old received Divine approval. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the Word of God, so that what is seen was made out of things which do not appear."

"By faith Abel offered to God a more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts by accepting Abel and his revelation: and though he died, through his faith he is still speaking."

"By faith Enoch (our type) was translated so that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had the testimony that he pleased God (our testimony). But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he who draws near to God must believe He exists, and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him".

I Corinthians 12:1-11, "I do not wish you to be ill-informed concerning spiritual gifts. You will recall that when you were heathens, you were led astray from one idol to another, not one of which could utter a single word. But now you are meeting people who claim to speak messages by the Spirit of God, so how can you know whether they are really inspired of God or fraudulent? Here is the test: no one speaking by the Spirit of God can say "Jesus is cursed:" neither can anyone say "Jesus is the Lord" except by the revelation of the Holy Ghost."

To the natural mind the testimony and ministry of a Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, Tommy Osborne and the tele-evangelists should convert the world en masse. Healings do take place: miracles too, in spite of human showmanship; but if their testimony and life is not according to the present truth, you know that ministry was not sent for God's elect.

"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are different kinds of service to God but it is the same Lord we are serving. There are many ways in which God works in and into our lives, but it is the same God who does the work through all of us who are His. To each saint is granted the evidence of the Holy Spirit for the mutual benefit of the entire Church. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit. To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these abilities are inspired and energized by the selfsame Spirit, who distributes to each individual as He pleases".

He who draws near to God must have faith, believing that He exists and that He is a Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. This world and everything in it is the manifestation of God's faith in His spoken Word. You turn on your computer by faith in its hardware and software; you connect to the internet by faith in the lines of communication through the telephone network and i.s.p's. just as you are reading this Newsletter in the expectation of an unseen reality.

"Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of unseen realities." It's an unseen substance that is real, not something you think you have, but something you actually possess and can use with confident expectation. When you turn on the tap for a glass of water, or walk. You do so in the confident expectation that unseen plumbing will deliver water, or unseen muscles, bones and ligaments will coordinate your limbs so that you walk.

There is a gift of faith just as there is a gift of healing. You may have a measure of faith and pray for the sick who are healed: that is not the gift of healing, it is exercising a measure of faith. For the gifts and calling of God are foreordained from the foundation of the world, and being irrevocable, they cannot be withdrawn. Gifts of healing, faith, miracles, the word of wisdom, the word of knowledge, speaking with unknown tongues, interpretation of tongues, discerning of spirits, and prophecy, are gifts given by the Lord to particular individuals for particular circumstances.

The gifts are not callings. For instance, someone with the gift of prophecy is not a prophet, and their pronouncements must be judged by two or three spiritual judges, but God's prophets have THUS SAITH THE LORD and can never err when speaking in the Name of the Lord. It may happen that the gift of prophecy in a person is used of God only once in their lifetime. The gifts of the Spirit can all be impersonated, just like the fruits of the Spirit, and all too often we find man exercising God's gift without authority instead of God operating His gift through a saint under preeminence.

In praying for the sick Brother Branham encountered genuine Christians with insufficient faith to be healed yet a sinner would request prayer and his faith would make him whole. The gift of faith has nothing to do with how well you serve God, it is a gift you possess, like a photographic memory, an ability with figures, the talent to draw, paint, sew, or to understand and speak fluently in six or eight languages. These natural and Spiritual gifts are all sovereignly given of God. The three gifts that will remain after these others have all passed away are faith, hope and charity; but the greatest of these is charity.

Our word "charity" is the Greek 'agape' from 'agapao,' which means to esteem, and is a love of preeminence or high regard and high moral purpose. The verb 'agapao' is the love of intelligence, reason and comprehension, coupled with the corresponding purpose; in this it vastly outranks the other type of love. The Greek 'phileo' is the love of mere personal affection or liking, including even the passions where the context requires, and no intelligence or high purpose is involved. This content places the verb on a low level. So the greatest of the gifts is that which we have in the Capstone Bride. It encompasses all seven virtues or Church Age "tokens" and completes the Body of Christ. So without us the Church Age saints cannot be made perfect or glorified.

Charity or 'agape' love requires faith or a clear understanding of the object of affectionate esteem, rather than sincere emotional appreciation.

John 21:15-17, "After breakfast Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love Me ('agapas' esteem Me and comprehend My office and mission) more than these others? He said to Him, Yes, Lord; You know that I love You ('philo' or love you as a dear Friend). He said to him, Feed My lambs. A second time He said to him, Simon, son of John, do you love Me ('agapas' or truly understand Who I am)? He said to Him, Yes, Lord; You know that I love ('philo') You. He said to him, Feed My sheep. A third time He said, Simon, son of John, do you love ('phileis') Me? Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, Do you love ('phileis,' or have affection for) Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know all things; You know that I love ('philo') You. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep".

It could never be said of God that He 'philise' or befriended the sinful world. As far as 'phileo' is concerned, He could only abominate the foul world. Jesus never asked us to love our enemies in the sense of 'phileo'; He never Himself loved His enemies in this way. But 'agapao'—yes, with this love, God did love the world, and we can love our enemies, comprehending all that is wrong, sanctifying the world, reconciling our enemies. Compare John 3:16 and every other passage in which either of the verbs is used in this Gospel. Only in a few cases, where either type of love would apply, might either verb be used; but even then the great distinction would remain—the two are never equal.

What went to Peter's heart was this verb 'phileo' in the final question, "Do you have affection for Me?" When Jesus twice asked about the higher love, once as to its degree compared with others and then about its very presence, Peter with all due humility ventured to assert only the lower form of love. But now in this third question Jesus probed even for this lower love, of which Peter felt so sure of its presence in his heart he could appeal to the discernment of Jesus. This grieved Peter so deeply (German Bible Scholar, Richard C.H. Lenski).

Many people think they believe when in actual fact they do not believe. They said, we will believe when we see Jesus rise from the dead on the third day. But after 2,000 years they still have not believed despite the fact it was foretold by vindicated prophets they acknowledge as their own. Brother Branham prayed for a man who was pronounced dead by three doctors and laid out in the morgue. He said, "He's driving a Pennsylvania locomotive tonight," and still they don't believe.

People are so blinded by the world and the things of the world they cannot recognize the Presence of God, although He is in their midst, and they pass Him by as it was in the days of His flesh.

Brother Branham went to pray for a seventeen year old girl who was to be operated on the next morning. It was feared she would not survive the trip to the other hospital as her appendix had ruptured and was ready to burst. Brother Branham knew she would die before she got there.

Looking at the Prophet, she asked, "Oh, Brother Branham, do you think I'll live?"

"I believe you will. Now, do you believe?"

"Oh, yes, yes, I believe. I don't care what my church says, but I'm scared of the operation,"

The girl thought she believed, just like many who come down the prayer line think they believe, but she did not believe. She was an emergency case. Her life was at stake. Something had to be done. So he said, "Sister, I do not mean to hurt your feelings, but you do not believe."

She had hope, but faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of reality unseen. You see what I mean? Her hope was not founded upon the unseen substance of faith. "Sister, ordinarily I could let you have time, but you've got to have immediate attention, right now. For to be honest with you. You'll not live to see the hospital."

Her parents didn't appreciate that very much at the time, but he was not wrestling with flesh and blood. Now Brother Branham is going to explain something for our benefit: "I want you (Bride) to be real careful now and take up every word so you can divide it, of a little something that God permitted there. And I'll see if you've got faith".

"Sister, you do not have faith."

"Oh, Reverend Branham, I have faith to believe anything."

I want to show you (Bride) that you do not have faith. Now, listen and catch every word of this.

Hanging from a light fitting in the room was a string on the end of which was a little bracelet which a child had probably been playing with.

I said to the young lady, "How far are you away from that bracelet?"

"Approximately fifteen feet."

"Something has to be done immediately. Now, you parents, you just turn your back."

I said to the young lady; "Now, you tell me you've got faith to believe for all things."

"I have, sir."

"How long has it been since you've eaten?"

"About three days," said, "I can't even keep water on my stomach."

"Now, if you believe with all your heart, you will prove to me now that you've got faith. Look directly at that bracelet, and you make that bracelet swing around and around in the room. Then you make it swing back and forth in the room, and then stop it, and I'll believe you have faith."

"Oh, Brother Branham, why ask me something like that?"

"I wanted to see if you had faith. Jesus said, All things are possible if you believe."

Now, that's just pure faith. Magicians use it many times to play pranks, burst glasses and so forth, which it will, if you believe. They have the gift of faith which they misuse just as genuine mediums misuse the gift of prophecy and impersonate a prophet, which is blasphemy. Brother Branham is trying to explain faith so you, Bride, will know what he is talking about and be able to separate the gift of faith, which is without repentance to sinner or saint, from faith that is a clear understanding of God's Word by grace to you who are Christians (I Corinthians 12:1,3).

"Why, Brother Branham, no one could do that."

"Anyone who believes can do it."

"Well, I don't believe that anyone could do that."

"I thought you said you believed for all things." See how she was caught right there. "You said you believed all things. I want you to prove it."

"I don't believe there's anyone can do that; that's material, Brother Branham. Could you do it?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Well, could I see it done?"

"If you desire."

"I desire."

Then of course, putting my mind on it, and having her to watch that and not me. As many times in a meeting, I can take any cross-eyed child without even praying for it. Just let me look at it straight in the eyes and I'll make its eyes come straight. But when I turn my head those eyes will cross again. However, when God heals crossed eyes, they become perfectly normal. That's the difference between your faith and the faith of God working through you.

Of course, fastening my eyes on that bracelet, which you can do yourself if you don't doubt in your heart, it started moving around; then it moved back and forth, around, crossways, and stopped.

"Brother Branham," she said, "that's spiritualism."

"I thought maybe you'd say something like that." Isn't it strange how people who profess to know God, know so little about Him?

She said, "You know, we belong to the Church of Christ, we speak where the Bible speaks and are silent where the Bible's silent. There's no such a thing can be found in the Bible."

"Sure, that's in the Bible."

"Well, I don't believe it."

"All right," I said, "You don't believe it?"

"No. You show me where that's found in the Bible."

"One morning Jesus came to a fig tree having leaves hoping to find some fruit. As it was fruitless, He cursed the tree and it began to die from the roots. Passing that way at evening, Peter remarked how quickly the tree had died. Jesus replied, Have faith in God. For I assure you, That whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be removed, and cast into the sea; and not doubt in his heart but believe that those things which he said shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he said." Did He say that? Sure, He did."

"I know your unbelieving pastor, trying to justify his unbelief, said that was a mountain of sin. I went to school myself. Jesus was kneeling by the Mount Olives. If you'd say in your heart for it to be moved and don't doubt . . ." And He said, "If you had faith, the size of a mustard seed . . ."

"Now, if faith the size of a mustard seed would move that mountain, how little faith would you need just to move that bracelet?"

A mustard seed is small, but its importance in this story is that it cannot be hybrid. Nothing will mix with mustard seed. It's all mustard. If you have that much faith, though it is small, so long as it is not mixed with unbelief, you may ask what you will and it will be given to you. But it must be unwavering, genuine mustard seed faith.

She asked, "Did God move that or did the devil move that?"

"Neither one moved that."

"Then how in the world did it move?"

"I moved it."

"Well, you're fifteen feet or better away from it."

"No, it's my faith that moved it. If you ask anything and don't doubt . . . See what I mean? . . . faith, but you're a free moral agent. If you resent it in your heart, faith cannot touch you. Jesus could not do many mighty works because of people's unbelief."

See how little people know about faith?

Then she said, "What part does God play in that?"

"An Angel told me that I was foreordained to have the gift of divine healing, and that it was for the people. And if I could get the people to believe me (believe me), and would be sincere when I prayed, that nothing would stand before the prayer."

"I spoke face to face with this supernatural Being, so I believe it with all my heart. And if I can get you to believe me with all of your heart, that's what moves God, and then you're healed. Your faith has saved you. You see what I mean? Your faith to believe has saved you. Not what you worked up and thought in your mind, but what you really know, the very evidence of things not seen. You see what I mean?"

Christian faith, rapturing faith, is not one of the Spiritual gifts, it is grace: unmerited favor with God through your Spiritual understanding of and agreement with His revealed Word for the hour. Therefore Christian faith is God's mind in you.

Then the girl said, "Brother Branham, I truly know that there's something above where I have ever reached. I'll try with all my heart and God have mercy on me. Let me believe."

I took a hold of her hand then. There was a vibration pouring from that ruptured appendix, I prayed for her and it stopped immediately. I said, "God bless you, sister. Your faith now has saved you."

A moment later Brother Branham fell asleep in the chair, and as he slept they cancelled the ambulance. When he was woken by one of the family, the girl was out of bed and had eaten a pint of ice cream.

Our lesson is not that we should aspire to the gift of faith to move the bracelet because most of us will never possess that gift which is not necessarily associated with salvation or new birth, for God's gifts are sovereignly given to sinners as well as saints (Matthew 5:45; Acts 2:17). We must own faith to believe that God is able and will do what we ask, provided we are abiding in the Vine (John 15:1-8).

In I Corinthians, Paul was laboring to remove the misuse of the gifts, particularly in public worship. Brother Branham found the same abuse among the Pentecostal people, which is why he set rules for conduct, order and doctrine of the Church like Paul before him. For the Pentecostals, having turned aside from plain, practical Christianity, were using the gifts of the Spirit without regard to Church edification, putting the greatest value on their most striking features, and prizing most those best calculated to impress the senses. Like Paul, he instructed them in the true and proper use of these gifts and warned against confounding a genuine inspiration with fanatical excitement.

There are five senses that control the human body. See, taste, feel, smell, and hear, but none of them declare faith. Faith is the sixth sense. Six is the number of man, who is the only creature endowed with faith. Faith is the only sense that cannot be touched by the body or influenced by material circumstances. Faith is the sense by which man touches God. Faith is more than sight. Faith is more than feeling. You do not feel faith. You don't taste faith. You don't smell faith. You don't see faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of unseen realities.

"Here, in my pocket, I think there's an old Barlow knife I've carried for years. Now, I do not see that knife. I do not feel that knife. I do not taste that knife. I do not smell that knife. But I know that knife is in there. How do I know? Because I believe it's in there. Now, if it is not in there, faith will put it in there."

"That is true. If you believe, all things are possible. Do not be afraid to take God at His Word. Now, I might have left that knife laying on the dresser where I changed clothes. But just as sure as that knife is on the dresser right now, if I believe it with all my heart, it will be in my pocket. And God is able to put it there if you believe it."

"Here, I want to show you something. Come here, Reverend Kidson. Sister Marse, would you stand up just a moment?"

"Now, look friends, I want to show you something. I believe there's a woman standing in front of me. Could you tell me I'm wrong?"

Brother Kidson replies, "But you don't hear any woman?"

"No, I don't hear any woman."

"You don't feel any woman?"

"No, sir."

"You don't taste any woman?"

"No."

"Then how can you tell there's a woman there?"

"Because the sense of sight tells me I see a woman."

"Well, are you sure?"

"I'm positive there's a woman standing there. Do you believe that I'm right?"

"Yes."

"Audience, you think I am right? Now, is it possible I could be wrong? Yes. Every one of us may be deceived by our eyes. That might be a vision. Remember the five senses of the body are not infallible. Only faith is absolute."

"Now, I know there's a woman standing there because the sense of sight tells me there's a woman standing there. You see what I mean? Now, you think you could persuade me otherwise? You think you could out-argue me? No, sir, because I know this sense of sight is direct, and I'm looking at that woman, and I know she's standing there. Yet the only thing that I know is the sense of sight. Now, I want you to notice. Now, I'm going to close my eyes."

"Now, I feel a woman's hand. I can tell it's a woman. She has a woman's hat on. She has a woman's hair; it's a woman's hand. I know it's a woman, because I feel her. You think you could out-argue me?"

"No."

"I know that was a woman. I've got my back turned to her, but yet I know it's a woman. Because the sense of feeling tells me there's a woman there. You see what I mean?"

"Now, sight told me there's one there now. I don't feel her. That's the sense of sight. I know she's standing there, because I'm looking at her. I close my eyes. I know she's standing there now, not because I see her; because I feel her hand. I know she's standing there. I don't see her, but yet I feel her. The sense of feeling declares there's a woman standing there. See what I mean?"

"Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for, the positive evidence of things not seen, just as positive as sight or feeling. You see what I mean?"

"So many people try to work themselves up and say, "Oh, I've got faith." But, friends, it's not there. If it was, it would react. See? You know what I mean?"

"I saw the woman and I knew she was there by the sense of sight. I closed my eyes; I didn't have sight. Then I felt her, and the sense of feeling said she was there. The sense of feeling was just as positive as the sense of sight, because it was a direct evidence. Now, faith is a direct evidence of things not seen, felt, tasted, smelled, or heard. Now, look here. I'm going to close my eyes now. Watch."

Brother Kidson says, "Drink this."

"That was orange juice."

Brother Kidson says, "You don't see any oranges."

"No, sir."

"You don't hear any oranges."

"No, sir."

"You don't feel any oranges."

"No, sir."

"You don't smell any oranges."

"No, sir."

"What makes you think that is orange?"

"Because I tasted it."

"Are you positive?"

I'm positive that was orange juice. That could not have been lemon; it could not have been grape. It could not have been grapefruit. It was orange juice, because the sense of taste told me that was orange juice. You think I'm right?"

"You are right."

"Why, the sense of taste proved that it was orange juice. Now, no matter how much you tell me it was water; I know it's orange juice. I tasted it. See? You could taste it too, and if you have a sense of taste, you will know it was orange juice. And if you have got faith you will know what I am talking about. Now, watch here again."

"I smell perfume. That's perfume."

Brother Kidson says, "You can't see any."

"I don't see any perfume."

"You don't hear any."

"I don't hear any perfume."

"You don't taste any."

"I don't taste it."

"You don't feel any."

"I don't feel it."

"What makes you think that it's perfume?"

"I can smell it. The sense of smell tells me that was perfume before my nose. I didn't see it, did I? Did I see it? I had my eyes closed. Did I taste it? No, I didn't have it in my mouth. Did I feel it? Never had my hands about it. How did I know it then? Did I hear it? No, I smelled it, and that was the direct evidence that that was perfume. I know it."

"Watch again. That's music!"

Brother Kidson says, "You don't feel any music."

"No, sir."

"You don't taste any music."

"No, sir."

"Well, what makes you think that's music?"

"I hear it, and I know it's music."

"Are you sure about that?"

"I'm positive. The lady's playing "Only Believe." You think I'm right?"

"You're right."

"Try to argue me out of it. I don't see it. I don't taste it. I don't feel it. I don't smell it. But I hear it. Was I positive? Do I know that I'm right? Why?"

"Now, there are the five senses of the body. They are a positive first-hand experience, aren't they? You know when they happen. You know I'm looking at an audience. You know you're looking at me. And faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. It's positive. You know it. There's no need of anybody telling you anything more about it. It's declared just as certainly as any of these five senses of the body."

It isn't what you try to make yourself believe. If, for instance I try to make-believe I'm hearing music, I wouldn't hear it. Or try to make myself believe I'm smelling perfume. It's just not there. I have to actually do it. You see what I mean? And faith is that positive. It is an act of positive reality. You know it.

It's the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. You don't see it. You don't taste it. Somebody might say, "I don't feel any better."

"Well, what's the matter? Why don't you feel any better? If you have faith, according to your faith be it unto you."

"No matter how you feel, you're healed anyhow. No matter what you see, you're healed anyhow. Do you see what I mean? You know it. There's nothing can take it out of your heart. You know it."

"If you could only know what I'm talking about, something would react right now. See? It's a positive. It's right there, just as positive as these other five senses. These five senses are of the natural man. Faith is of God. The natural man can be wrong but God cannot be wrong."

Think of it. And people tell me they have faith and say they can't believe in divine healing? If you don't believe in divine healing, you're lost. If you can't have faith enough for God to patch up this body to glorify Him in, how are you going to have faith to believe that God will take this old mortal and make immortality out of it to take it up. That's a direct divine healing. Oh, my, there's going to be some awful disappointments at the first resurrection.

"We have to have faith that pleases God so we can be translated like Enoch was. "Without faith it's impossible to please God." You've got to have the same kind of faith; faith whereby you believe, and know."

It's nothing you can work yourself up to. Faith is something that's already in your heart. You just come and believe.

"God testified of Abel's gift." God always testifies of His gifts.

Joseph led Israel into Egypt but after four hundred and twenty years there raised up a pharaoh who did not know Joseph. He put Israel under bondage and they began to cry to God for a deliverer. After their God-ordained deliverer had come to maturity he saw an Egyptian mistreating a Hebrew: Moses slew and buried the Egyptian. The following day when he interceded between two Hebrews striving with one another, they said, "Will you kill us as you killed the Egyptian?"

Moses was their deliverer, God's gift to the people, but they did not recognize him. Moses thought they would surely understand that he was their gift to deliver them. But they did not understand.

Today thousands of people are missing their gift. They look and say, "Oh, he's just a man." That's true. Was it God or Moses who delivered the people? It was God in Moses. See? They cried for a deliverer, but when God sent the deliverer to them, they failed to see it, because he was a man. But it wasn't a man; it was God in the man. And it was not Brother Branham, but God veiled behind the flesh of Brother Branham.

John 14:10, "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The Words that I give you are not spoken on My own authority: the Father who dwells in Me does His works." Jesus was God's Gift to the world. God gave Him for you and I.

Those who believe that God gave Him can be saved. But those who do not believe cannot be saved. There is no other way to enter the Kingdom than by the kinsman Redeemer who voluntarily gave His Life as an acceptable sin offering in substitution for your unacceptable, sinful life. If you believe that, you can be saved. But if you don't believe it, you can't be saved because He is God's Gift.

John 3:2, "Nicodemus, a Pharisee and member of the Sanhedrin, visited Jesus by night so he would not be seen, and said, Rabbi, we Pharisees know You are a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that You do, except God is with Him".

God was testifying by the spokesman for those hypocrites that He was in Christ. God was testifying of His Gift. Matthew 3:17, "This is My beloved Son in whom I am pleased to dwell in."

Jesus said, "If I do the works of My Father, though you don't believe Me, believe the works: that you may know, and believe, that the Father is in Me, and I in Him" (John 10:37-38).

John 5:31-34, "If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true. There is Another who testifies of Me; and I know that His witness is true. You inquired of John, and he bore witness of the truth. However, I do not rest My claim upon human testimony, I say this in order that you might be saved."

And if Brother Branham tells us about a gift of divine healing and God doesn't testify of it, leave it alone, it is false. But if God testifies of it, believe it for it is God's gift to you.

Jesus prayed for many people who saw no results because they did not believe. They didn't believe that He was God's Son. They said, "He makes Himself God. He forgives sins on earth. He's a blasphemer."

They said the same thing about Moses. "We would rather have died in Egypt, than be brought out here to starve in the wilderness." They said the same thing about Elijah. God's messengers have always been rejected.

When Israel was in need of a Saviour. God sent Christ into the world. When He was taken Home, many of the people of God were sick and afflicted, and God gave Peter the gift of divine healing. People were healed because God testified through Peter of the gift of divine healing. Just as He testified through Elijah's office by vindicating his Words, through Moses as a deliverer, through Christ as a Son. He testified through Peter as a healer. There was such a crowd Peter could not pray for them all, or shake their hands and bless them. But they knew this apostle was God's gift to them and they laid their sick and afflicted in the street, believing that even his shadow passing over them would make them whole. And it did because they knew that Peter was the gift of healing sent from God to them.

It was God's gift, not Peter that was doing the healing.

God is not in material things, and the Holy Ghost never fell on organizations; it fell upon individuals. One person said, "Should we be baptized over now in order to be prayed for?" No! You must have faith in God; you don't need to belong to any church. But if you are healed and sin again, that sickness will return far worse than it was in the first place. You go to church somewhere and serve God. God heals you for His glory.

God honored the gift of Abel. He honored the gift of Moses. And Moses thought the people would understand. But they did not understand, it still goes over the head of the majority.

Elijah the prophet was God's gift and in his days Satan raised up false prophets, but God testified of the prophecy of Elijah. If it's of God, God will testify of it. Elijah was God's gift to Israel. He was Ahab and Jezebel's pastor. She didn't want to admit it. She hated him, yet he was God's provided gift to let her know her sins; and she failed to see him.

Jesus was God's gift to Israel, and to the world. "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son." He said, "It's not Me that does the works, but My Father who dwells in Me." It was God in Christ. That's why Martha said, "I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God who should come into the world." She believed it. And there all the people believed on Him.

If you will just believe and show respect, God will testify of His gifts. That's right. He did for Abel. He did for Elijah. He did for Moses. He did for Peter. He did for Paul. He did it for Brother Branham, and He will do it for you, whatever your gift may be.

Brother Branham went into a pharmacy wearing his ranger's uniform, and as he left with his purchase a man touched him on the shoulder and said, "I see you are an official. I would like to ask you a question. You may think I'm kind of crazy."

"What's the matter, sir?"

"I live in Paducah, Kentucky. I've been failing in health for about two years, and last week I dreamt that I should come to Jeffersonville, Indiana, to get somebody by the name of Branham to pray for me. Do you know whether there are any Branhams who live here?"

I thought, "Oh, God's testifying." And I said, "Yes, sir, I know Branhams live here."

He said, "Do you know if there is anybody who prays for the sick?"

I said, "I'm the one."

He just looked at the Prophet, and tears began to roll down his cheeks.

"He just took me by the hand. I held him by the hand, took off my hat, laid my gun down in my hat, knelt down on the side of the street and began praying for him right there. When I raised up there were mothers standing, holding the little children back, and men with their hats off. Many things have been done in Jeffersonville, and they knew what was going on. When we raised up, they were all standing with their heads down listening to the prayer. I raised up. And the brother put his arms around me, commenced to patting me. I've never seen him from that day to this. God healed him.

One morning Brother Branham was taking a meeting in Houston, Texas, with hundreds of people about four abreast in the prayer line, when all at once a lady ran in holding a little boy in her arms. She called, "Just a minute, just a minute." And everyone stopped. "I don't like to stop that prayer line, but I want to tell you, I live over on the west side of Houston. . ."

"This morning my neighbor, the mother of this little child, said her father was an old Methodist preacher. He's been dead twenty years. And he used to go around preaching, saying someday God would restore the gift of healing to the church for the Gentiles before the end of our dispensation, as He did for the Jews."

"This is his daughter's sick baby. This morning after cleaning house, she was lying down resting and in a dream she saw a big black cloud rising, and out of that cloud came her dead father who said, Rise and take the child and go to the Houston Gospel Tabernacle. The gift of Divine healing is there."

She had never heard of Houston Gospel Tabernacle and thought it was just a dream. After a little while she fell asleep, and she saw the dream a second time. She got up and did some more housework, lay down and dreamt the same dream a third time.

The baby had infantile paralysis and its little legs were crippled. And the lady was weak so her neighbor brought the child. Brother Branham said, "Bring me the baby," and God testified of His gift.

God will testify and vindicate your gift if you let your Token shine before men. Don't hide your Light under a bushel, invest the gift the Lord has given you so that others may be blessed. Your gift is given that He may be glorified. Let it be seen. There is no need for self-promotion, your gift will declare itself so long as it is not hidden.

Now is the time to discover and exercise your gift, while grace remains. Know your gift and how you may edify and build up your Brothers and Sisters in the Body. Discover their needs. Pray for them. God will vindicate your gift, increase the intimacy of your relationship with Him, and make clear the path before you.

If you will be sincere with God and get Him believe you, nothing will stand before your prayer, not even cancer. It is the "third pull." If you are one with the Lord as Jesus prayed in John 17, you can ask what you will and He will do what you said for you are expressing His thoughts in your words for His glory: asking for what you are. eb421.htm

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you have joined us in fellowship.

The Law of God's Holy Bible is superior to the King's law but the days when parliaments, monarchs and judges honored the Absolute, or even national constitutions and Common Law, are past. Truth and righteousness, morals and ethics, national interest and a fair go have been forsaken for the love of money. Wealth and power speak with the loudest voice. Everything rests upon economic benefit . . . but for whom?

Truth is not paramount in this age of lawlessness. Character is no longer the measure of the man; prestige is bound up in winning by fair means or foul. Thus our (once Christian) Western nations are ruled by liars and war criminals as confirmed in an analysis of 9/11. Not content with genocide and nuclear contamination of Afghanistan and Iraq they now threaten Iran and are waving a finger at China, their military at the Euphrates that divides the Roman Empire from the kings of the East. When they are defeated Christendom will end in apostasy and "know it not" (Romans 11:32; Revelation 3:17-20).

Amschel Mayer Rothschild said, "Let us issue and control the money of a nation and we care not who make its laws. . . On the ruins of the natural and genealogical aristocracy of the Goyim we have set up the aristocracy of money. The qualification for this aristocracy is wealth which is dependent upon us".

Paul taught, "Godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and obviously we can carry nothing out. When we have food and clothing let us be content with them. But those who are eager to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful desires that plunge men into destruction and ruin. For the love of money is the root of all evils. In striving for money, some have wandered away from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows."

"But you, O man of God, shun these things and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, take hold of the eternal life, to which you were called as you made a good confession before many witnesses" (I Timothy 6:6-12).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,
Anthony Grigor-Scott

Arab Central Banks move Assets out of Dollar

March 14, 2006– Middle Eastern anger over the decision by the US to block a Dubai company from buying five of its ports hit the dollar yesterday as a number of central banks said they were considering switching reserves into euros.

The United Arab Emirates, which includes Dubai, said it was looking to move one-tenth of its dollar reserves into euros, while the governor of the Saudi Arabian central bank condemned the US move as "discrimination".

Separately, Syria responded to US sanctions against two of its banks by confirming plans to use euros instead of dollars for its external transactions. The remarks combined to knock the dollar, which fell against the euro, pound and yen yesterday as analysts warned other central banks might follow suit.

Last week the US caused dismay after political opposition to the takeover of P&O by Dubai Ports World forced DPW to agree to transfer P&O's US port management business to a "US entity" . . . Full story: news.independent.co.uk

Dubai and the Straits of Hormuz

United Arab Emirates is located at the center of an oil-dependent world. This tiny state forms the promontory that juts out into the famed Straits of Hormuz through which 40% of the world's oil passes every day. Across the narrow straights sits Iran, the next victim on the list of "axis of evil" nations. Any attack on Iran will require that military forces quickly deploy to Dubai to forestall the closing of the straits and the subsequent devastation that would cost to world oil supplies and financial markets.

This is the critical point which is being intentionally concealed by America's diversionary media. This is the reason that President Bush continues to force the Dubai port-plan even though 70% of the American people and Congress resoundingly oppose it.

The importance of UAE as a staging area for future hostilities cannot be overstated. No military strategy can hope to succeed without first establishing a beachhead across the straits in Iran so that the danger of blowing up oil tankers and blocking passage is removed. This tells us that plans for an attack may be on track for late March as originally threatened by Israel. . . The die was cast for war with Iran nearly a decade ago in policy papers drawn up by far-right political ideologues that now control all the levers of foreign policy in the Bush White House.

America's Glorious Empire of Debt

Let us take a moment to stand back and gaze at America's great Empire of Debt. It is the largest edifice of debt ever put up. It sustains the most magnificent world economy ever assembled. It brings more wealth to more people than any system ever before devised.

Not only is it incomparably effective, it is also immeasurably entertaining. For it has its burnished helmets and flying banners; its intellectuals and its gladiators; its Caesars, Antonys, Neros, and Caligulas. It has its temples, its forum, its Capitol, its senators; its praetorian guards; its via Appia; its proconsuls, centurions, and legions all over the world as well as its bread and its circuses in the homeland and its costly wars in periphery areas.

The Roman Empire rested on a classical model of imperial finance. Beneath a complex and nuanced pyramid of relationships was a foundation of tribute formed with the hard rock of brute force. America's empire of debt, on the other hand, stands not as a solid pyramid of trust, authority, and power relationships but as a rickety slum of delusion, fraud, and misapprehension.

Rest Easy, Bill Clinton: Milosevic Can't Talk Anymore

What the corporate media overwhelmingly ignores in Milosevic's death is what they ignored in his life as well—his intimate knowledge of US war crimes in Yugoslavia. While Milosevic was undoubtedly a war criminal who deserved to be tried for his crimes, he was also the only man in the unique position of being able to expose and detail the full extent of the US role in the bloody disintegration of Yugoslavia in the 1990s. In fact, that is precisely what he was fighting to do at his war crimes trial when he died. Full story: antiwar.com

Desperate Australian Catholics importing Priests

We've all heard about the shortage of vocations to the Catholic priesthood. In Australia the priesthood is ageing and priests are increasingly being called on to administer two or more parishes. Some bishops are trying to solve the problem by importing priests from overseas, and in some dioceses, up to 40% of the priests are now newly arrived on contracts from places like Burma, India, Vietnam and Poland. . .

"There does seem to me occasionally that there's a view that Father Joseph's a very lovely Indian priest but we can't understand a word he's saying." Full story: abc.net.au

Rabbi: Holocaust® Politically Motivated

London, March 20, 2006 (IranMania)– A leading Austrian Jewish Rabbi said that holocaust catastrophe in Europe, which victimized millions of Jews, is nowadays used as an instrument for suppressing the rightful demands of the world nations. . . Rabbi Moishe Fridmann, who leads the Association of Anti-Zionist Jews in Austria, made the remark late Saturday on the sidelines of the two-day "Global Conference on Constructive Interaction among Divine Religions: A Framework for International Order".

He said a limited number of people, advocating certain notions during the past two centuries, have been trying to establish a universal society void of any religious notions with God and holy prophets having no places in it because such a society would create them an economic paradise, IRNA added.

Saying that both the world wars during the past century were provoked and administered by this limited group, the Rabbi said they tried to abuse differences between Muslim Arabs and the west as the founding base of a new power structure in the world which victimized the Jews at the very first step.

Terming as "vain" Zionist regime's attempts to introduce itself as the representative of the Jewish community to the world, Fridmann said since the regime in Israel was a secular it could not function as so in any possible manner.

Commenting on the remarks of Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad regarding the Holocaust in Europe, the rabbi noted those who are now lamenting over the catastrophic event of massacre of millions of Jews in the Nazi camps were themselves the real initiators of the horrendous act. . .

Louis Farrakhan rips 'Wicked Jews' in Hollywood

March 21, 2006– It's been nearly a month since Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakahan blamed "Zionists and neo-cons" for "manipulating" President Bush into invading Iraq—before blasting "wicked Jews" in Hollywood for promoting "lesbianism [and] homosexuality."

Yet, outside of a few newspapers in Chicago, the same press that showers positive coverage on Farrakhan's Million Man marches has yet to get around to covering his Feb. 26 Saviours Day speech. Full story: newsmax.com

Comment: I know of a mighty prophet who spoke just like Mr. Farrakhan. Several such.

Pope Benedict XVI calls for Respect of all Religions

Vatican City, March 16, 2006– A Jewish delegation from the United States met with Pope Benedict XVI on Thursday and one member said it was wonderful to hear his "profound commitment" to Catholic-Jewish relations. American Jewish Committee delegation member Rabbi David Rosen, director of inter-religious relations for the New York-based group, described the encounter with the pope as "extremely warm and intimate."

Benedict has made improving relations Jews a priority of his pontificate, continuing the groundbreaking work of his predecessor John Paul II. The Vatican has an office that deals specifically with relations with Jews, whom John Paul once called the "older brothers" of Christians.

Benedict became the second pope in history to enter a synagogue during a trip to Cologne, Germany, in August.

The pope, meanwhile, called for respect of all religious symbols and places of worship, and said that Christian, Jewish and Muslim leaders should work together for world peace (Haaretz, March 16, 2006).

I will Restore

When Adam stepped over the Word from eternity into time, not only did he begin to die but he lost his inheritance in life because before the Fall he had supreme dominion over all the earth; he was the first god of this earth (Genesis 1:26-31). God is the God of the universe, but His son had this earth under his own control (Isaiah 66:1). As he knew no sin he could speak the Word, and what he said came to be for his words were the mind of the Lord. By divine inspiration, he named all of the creatures as God created them, and because he had dominion over the earth he could stop nature. But when he crossed from faith in God's Word, which is the mind of the Spirit, to Satan's reasonings against the Word, he severed his unity with the Tree of Life, and sold his dominion over the earth to Satan, inhibiting his operation of the gifts of the Spirit.

Before the Fall Adam could say, "Let this mountain here be moved over there," and his gift of faith would move it as Brother Branham's gift of faith moved a bracelet suspended from a light fitting. Adam could say, "Let this tree here, be plucked up and planted over there," for he had absolute dominion over earth as a minor god manifesting that he was a Son of God so long as he was under pre-eminence to God our Father.

Adam looked upon the beauty of Eve, touched her flesh and said, "Why, she's flesh of my flesh and bone of my bone." Taking her by the arm they walked through the garden—they did not know what sin was.

The winds blew, and she said, "Oh dear, that wind!"

In his sinless state Adam said, "Peace," and the wind stopped.

"Oh, Adam, don't you think this tree would look much prettier sitting over here?"

"Tree, be plucked up and planted over here, and it did so.

The last Adam proved it can be done. He walked upon water, stilled stormy seas, cursed the fig tree, turned water into wine, and death into Life. He controlled all nature by the dominion given into the first Adam's hands. When his last elect offspring is redeemed to his first estate in faith, his dominion and the "third pull" will be restored. Amen!

The gifts of the Spirit with which the early Church was endowed as an earnest of the "restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began," lay dormant through unbelief until rediscovered in the Laodicean Church Age. The fullness of the Word restored in this present holy convocation is drawing Christ's end-time Bride back under pre-eminence to the Word whence Adam fell. It is our assurance that we stand unspotted by sin and without condemnation in the Presence of God with perfect faith in the exercise of our gifts, so that from the sounding of Israel's Seventh Trumpet we will be equipped to manifest that we are the Sons of God (Romans 8:11-23).

The Son of God, our forerunner, the last Adam said, "The works that I do, shall you do also." He revealed Himself by doing the same works in the ministry of His forerunner, William Branham, the firstfruit of we who are Christ's at His second or 'parousia' Coming (Luke 17:28-30; Hebrews 13:8; I Corinthians 15:23).

The gifts of the Spirit were God's pledges of the full dominion over nature, which we will realize in the redemption of our bodies from the bondage of corruption by the working of faith in us. Faith elevated to hitherto before unrealized heights in the manifestation of the Sons of God during the "squeeze" will enable this mastery, changing us from earthly creatures of time to heavenly creatures of eternity.

I Corinthians 12:7-11, "To each saint is granted the evidence of the Holy Spirit for the mutual benefit of the entire Church. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit. To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; to another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues; but all these abilities are inspired and energized by the selfsame Spirit, who distributes to each individual as He pleases".

These gifts operated by saints of God under pre-eminence to the Word of God are the manifestation of God for the mutual benefit of the members of the Body, and therefore the entire Body since we are interdependent like the limbs and organs of the human body (I Corinthians 12:12-27).

The Gifts of the Spirit evince the working of the Spirit, but not necessarily new birth. The evidence of new birth is a life lived by a clear revelation of the Word for the hour. It is the Life of Christ on display in your life. Acts 10:45-46, "While Peter yet spoke the Word of the hour, the Holy Ghost fell on all who heard the Word. And they of the circumcision were astonished when they saw that the gift of the Holy Ghost was poured out on the Gentiles also."

How did they understand this? "They heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God" consequent to a clear revelation of the present Truth. These Hebrew Christians heard in Galilaean what the Gentiles of several different nations spoke in their native tongues. By this manifestation of the Spirit their joy edified the Hebrew Christians, and profited the whole Body. This is the common objective of all of the gifts, which are not intended for the gratification of the recipients, but for the profit of the Body, just as hearing is not designed for the benefit of the ear, but to serve the whole body of the individual.

Some seek the gifts rather than the Giver, and by God's permissive will they receive the gifts of the Spirit without the Holy Spirit and regeneration. Others employ the gifts for self-aggrandisement whereas the manifestation of the Spirit is given to profit the whole Body.

The gift of wisdom is the ability to discern and expound new revelations from Scripture which cannot be understood by human intelligence and require the Holy Spirit operating through the gift of wisdom (Ephesians 6:19). Revelation 13:18, "Here is wisdom. Let he who has wisdom count the number of the beast. . ." Wisdom or revelation belongs to the "prophets," those who are not prophets must write down their revelation and have it discerned by three spiritual judges before delivering it to the people.

Paul distinguishes wisdom (revelation) from knowledge in I Corinthians 14:6, "If I come to you speaking with tongues you cannot understand, how would that help you? But if I speak plainly what God has revealed to me (i.e. by the word of wisdom), or tell you things I know (i.e. by the word of knowledge), or prophesy what is going to happen, or impart the great truths of doctrinal teaching—that is what you need, and what will help you?"

Seek the best things first. Without wisdom, how will you apply the gift of knowledge or any of the lesser gifts? It takes God's wisdom. Solomon had wisdom to discern between two women which was the real mother of the child under disputation (I Kings 3:16-28), whereas the Pentecostals desired to speak with unknown tongues and denominated that confusion as the Methodists glorified sanctification instead of the Holy One.

The second gift is knowledge to see a revelation already revealed and to identify and prove it from Genesis to Revelation. Knowledge belongs to the teachers; if a gifted saint is not a prophet he must declare his knowledge on paper, and submit it to three Spiritual judges for approval before he delivers it to the people. Even bishops and deacons are permitted only to espouse doctrine that has been taught by their pastor.

Wisdom is the objective, extensive, all-encompassing form of knowledge that captures the aims and purposes of God in the entire scheme of redemption, whereas knowledge is the subjective and intense form of understanding particular things. In Proverbs 8 and 9 "wisdom" is impersonated as the unchanging principles of eternal order, but I Corinthians 13:8-12 says that since we are not omniscient and know so very little, "knowledge" shall become obsolescent and lose its relevance as childish things are discarded in adulthood.

The Word of wisdom and the Word of knowledge are each associated with deep study, intellectual energy and seclusion with God. The second category of gifts have to do with faith itself and the practical workings of faith in gifts of healings, the working of miracles, prophecy, and discernment of spirits.

The gift of faith is not "justifying faith" which receives salvation and eternal Life through a comprehension of doctrines, but a strong confidence in the Divine omnipotence as able to manifest itself in extraordinary deeds, or a confidence which will enable man to accomplish these deeds or call upon this help. Such faith enables one to extend himself beyond the region of mere moral certainty in the actual realization of things believed.

Brother Branham said, "A gift of faith is not something you take and do something with. The gift of faith is getting your own self out of the way."

Turning on the television in his hotel room he saw "Oral Roberts praying for a little sick baby from up in Canada. It had a bad eye. And I believe the parents were Catholic. And Brother Roberts in his real way of faith, he slammed his hand down on the little baby and prayed for it, and the little baby was healed."

"Now, that's a real gift of faith that Brother Roberts has. And we know that Brother Jack Coe used to have a little anvil laying by the side of his desk. If somebody came up with glasses on, he'd take the glasses off and break them up with the hammer, throw them over. Have crutches, he'd take their crutches first, and chop them up, and throw them away; he burnt every bridge. They only made one Jack Coe, you know. The world couldn't stand two at one time. . ." (Queen of Sheba, #60-0710).

"Balaam had a gift of faith and could have used it to the perfect original Word of God. Many men on the field today with gifts of healing could do the same thing. Many men out here, people speaking in tongues, people prophesying, a gift—could use it for the Kingdom of God, but they don't do it. And God blesses them anyhow, in His permissive will. But for popularity and pleasure, personal gain, they sell their birthrights as Esau did, sell out to organization, sold out like Balaam did. See? And so many today are doing the same thing. We know that's right. They sell out their birthright. Women professing the Holy Ghost, wearing shorts, men permitting them in the pulpit, bobbed-haired women in the pulpit, paint on their face, with religious gowns on, it's the biggest stumbling block the church has ever had" (Does God ever change His Mind about His Word? p. 31:167).

Gifts of healings, plural as in the Greek, refers to the many different means by which God heals the sick. Some preach the Word of God, some pray, and some lay hands on a patient with overpowering faith. It is not the gifted person who does the healing but their faith and the faith of the patient. Belief and the right mental attitude towards any promise of God will bring it to pass. Any Christian has a right to confront Satan and defeat him by standing on God's Word. One doesn't require gifts of healing to heal the sick, just faith in God's Word and the finished work on Calvary (Isaiah 53:5).

The working of miracles denotes things accomplished by miraculous power, such as the instantaneous normalization of a short leg, club foot, blind eyes, the restoration of the dead to life or the infliction of death or blindness by a word. In other words, "the third pull" (Acts 5:1-10; 13:8-12; 19:11).

The gift of prophecy is quite distinct from the office of a prophet. It depends on "faith" and involves an inspired disclosure of the future by the Spirit through an inspired insight into the obscurer parts of existing Scripture but not public teaching (Romans 12:6; I Corinthians 14:24, 32-40). Its pronouncements must be judged by two or three judges before it is disclosed to the Church. The gift of prophecy might be upon a person today for a particular circumstance and never again for the rest of their life.

The gift of discerning of spirits is the judicial power to distinguish true prophecy from false—to discern between pure inspiration and the impure excitements either of the unaided human spirit or evil spirits and the divine (I Corinthians 14:29; I Thessalonians 5:20-21; I John 4:1).

The third category of gifts refers to utterance in known and unknown tongues.

The gift of speaking in human and supernatural tongues. This is a gift of speaking in different tongues under the inspiration of the Spirit (I Corinthians 14:1-12). The speaker does not acquire different languages whereby he can prophesy at will, converse with understanding or comprehend what he has said if he spoke in a strange tongue. Publicly He should only speak under inspiration, and only if he or someone present has the gift of interpretation.

I Corinthians 14:27-28, "If someone speaks in an unknown tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in his turn; and let one give an interpretation. But if there is no one to interpret, let them keep silence in the church and let each speak to himself and to God".

The gift of interpreting tongues operates only by faith under inspiration. The interpreter does not learn and translate various tongues of men and angels; he hears in his own language the words spoken in other tongues and declares what he has heard. Often when preaching to people who do not understand English some have followed and understood my words if there was no interpreter, of listened to and understood me even though there was an interpreter. And on the day of Pentecost Peter and the Galilean—not Jewish—converts, spoke in Galilean, but the Hebrew and Gentile proselytes heard their preaching in their own tongues.

Acts 2:4-11, "They were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Now there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven and when they heard the commotion a crowd gathered and were confounded, because every man heard them speak in his own language."

"Astonished, they said, Are not all these who speak Galileans? How is it we hear every man in our own native tongue? Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, in Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia, Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, and in parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretes and Arabians, we hear them tell in our languages the excellencies of God".

On the day of Pentecost Peter pointed these people to the prophecy of Joel 2:28 which foretold that "in the last days" or Messianic age, God would pour out His Spirit upon all flesh—Hebrew and Gentile, sinner and saint, bond and free, male and female. Our Lord before His crucifixion promised to send the Comforter, who is the Holy Ghost, to guide His Church into all truth (John 14-16).

After His resurrection Jesus said, "These signs shall follow them who believe; In My Name they will cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover" (Mark 16:17-18).

Immediately before His ascension Jesus said, "You shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days from now" (Acts 1:5). And on the day of Pentecost God honored His Word, not restricting the new birth to any race, gender or class of people. The baptism with the Holy Ghost and the endowment of spiritual gifts were granted to Israelites and Gentiles, bond and free, male and female (Galatians 3:28).

These nine Spiritual gifts will be in the Body until the close of our dispensation. However, since "that which is perfect or complete has come with the revelation of the Seven Seals, PART-Word and a Mediator have been done away," and we find the manifestation of the Gifts has diminished since we have the perfect interpretation of the Word.

Paul looked forward to our day he called, "the dispensation of the fullness of times," when God would "gather together all members of the Body to be with Christ forever, whether they be in heaven or living here on earth." He prayed, "asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation for an understanding in the knowledge of Himself, that the eyes of your heart being enlightened may know the nature of the hope to which you are called, and what is the wealth of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and how overwhelmingly great is His power in us who believe. It is that same mighty power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead, and seated Him at His right hand in heavenly places" (Ephesians 1:10,17-20).

The Spirit of wisdom and revelation has been presented to us through the revelation of the Seven Seals, which is the key that unlocks the mystery of God. The New Testament saints all possessed "the keys to the kingdom of heaven," which was the Word for their day that granted entrance into the Kingdom by the baptism with the Holy Spirit or new birth. Christ's end-time Bride also hold "the keys of hell and of death" by the Spirit of wisdom and revelation for an understanding in the finished mystery of God by which we have the hope of glorification and translation without death by the power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead and seated Him at God's right hand (Ephesians 2:19-23).

The battle is ongoing, but having done all, we must stand our ground with the belt of truth fastened about our waist, wearing the breastplate of righteousness and love, with the readiness of the Good News of peace bound upon our feet. Above all taking up the shield of faith with which we will be able to quench all the flaming darts of the evil one, and take the helmet of the hope in our salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.

When our corruptible flesh puts on immortality, these gifts of the Spirit will be redundant except for the wisdom of faith, hope and charity. And during a millennium of peace God's elect will live harmoniously together in a restored world of manifested Word, learning how to govern, tend and care for the Kingdom. eb422.htm

Next Big Quake? Maybe East of Bay Area

Hayward, Calif., March 25, 2006– New cracks appear in Elke DeMuynck's ceiling every few weeks, zigzagging across her living room, creeping toward the fireplace, veering down the wall. Month after month, year after year, she patches, paints and waits.

"It definitely lets you know your house is constantly shifting," DeMuynck said. So does the gate outside that swings uselessly 2½ inches from its latch, the strange bulges in the street and the geology students who make pilgrimages to her cul-de-sac.

DeMuynck could throw her paint brush from her front stoop and hit the Hayward Fault, which geologists consider the most dangerous in the San Francisco Bay Area, if not the nation. Like others who live here, she gets by on a blend of denial, hope and humor. Full story: yahoo.com

An "Alliance" of Violence

March 29, 2006– A disturbing trend noticeable in Iraq for quite some time now is that each aggressive Israeli military operation in the occupied territories results in a corresponding increase in the number of attacks on US forces in Iraq. One of the first instances of this was the assassination of Hamas leader Sheikh Ahmed Yassin in March 2004 and the reaction it set off across Shia and Sunni, ultimately spiraling into the siege and devastation of Fallujah. Fallujah is but one example one may use to demonstrate how the ongoing use of heavy handed tactics by the US-Israel alliance is proving to be as suicidal as it is homicidal. US troops in Iraq and Israeli civilians in their homes can bear testimony to this, as they are the ones who bear the brunt. Not to mention the collateral damage in Iraq. . .

It is clear that the longer the two countries continue with the use of their brute military power as the prime strategy in their war on terrorism, the greater grows the threat to the civilians they claim to protect. Full story: truthout.org

US Casualty Rate in Iraq Increasing Dramatically

Over the past month, the average rate at which US troops have been killed in Iraq has significantly fallen, but the rates at which they are being wounded have dramatically increased. In the 39 days from February 11 through March 21, 616 US soldiers were injured in Iraq, an average of 15.8 per day. Full story: truthout.org

The 9/11 Truth Revolution

Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth: MUJCA-NET is a group of scholars, religious leaders and activists dedicated to uniting members of the Jewish, Christian and Islamic faiths in pursuit of 9/11 truth. We believe that the process of joining together in search of the truth about 9/11 will bring enormous benefits, regardless of what truths we may discover. While our endorsers and supporters have different views about the probable level of US government complicity in 9/11, all of us agree that a new, honest investigation of the possibility of official complicity is a matter of the most urgent national and global importance.

The Sixth Sense

The prize of eternal Life is prepared for overcomers like Israel who contended with God and prevailed, becoming a prince or ruler with God. Jacob was the natural type of true Israel, our Lord Jesus Christ, who overcame the desires of his natural senses through prayer in the garden of Gethsemane and voluntarily surrendered His life on Calvary to perform the Father's will as Kinsman Redeemer for Adam's race.

Isaiah 49:6-8, "The Lord said, It is too light a thing that You should be My servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also make You a Light to the Gentiles, that My salvation may reach to the end of the earth. THUS SAITH THE LORD, the Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, to One despised by men, abhorred by the nation and the servant of rulers: Kings shall see and be upstanding, princes also shall pay homage; because of the Lord who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel, who has chosen You. THUS SAITH THE LORD, In an acceptable time I have answered You, and in a day of salvation I have helped You: and I will preserve You, and make You a covenantal pledge to Israel to re-establish the land and cause to re-inherit the desolate heritages" . . . in the Millennium.

Christians have overcome the natural world by denying the five senses of their mortal spirit: conscience, imagination, memory, reasoning, and affection, in order to activate faith in the Word for their day that will baptize them into the mystic body of Christ by the Spirit of the Lord. In Christ we are sealed to the day of our redemption and grow to maturity by taking dominion over our little world of mortal spirit and corruptible flesh, and bringing it subject to our Spirit-quickened soul by applied faith in the Word of God, and prayer.

Our body is pure animal with five senses: seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and feeling, by which it contacts this three-dimensional world of light, matter and time. As human beings we have a soul which is our true being, our Spirit-man or angel made in the image and likeness of the Holy Spirit. In the normal course of time our mortal spirit will break up and our body being dead will return to the elements whence it was taken, but the soul, if we are in Adam's race, will go on to the destination determined by its life decisions for or against the revealed Word of God.

The unchanging God has placed each soul on the same basis as Adam and Eve in the beginning, with absolute liberty to choose or to refuse to serve His will. And each of us is presented with the opportunity of receiving a sixth sense not given to pure animals which are without a soul. This sixth sense is faith. We are at liberty to receive faith and eternal Life, or choose doubt and unbelief with its consequences.

The sixth sense is offered to us by the grace of God to contact Him in the seventh dimension through the fourth dimension. There are seven dimensions: Light; Matter; Time; Communication with the unseen world (whose existence is demonstrated naturally by radio and TV) through dreams, visions and revelation; the Unrest of departed souls, both lost and saved; Rest (Theophany) of the departed souls in Christ, and God Alone.

Only God's elected can receive the sixth sense. Those who are not elect will likely have a measure of faith, even "intellectual faith" that can see some of the deeper things, but natural understandings will not convert the soul. The sixth sense is the mind of God in you and the answer to Jesus' prayer in the garden of Gethsemane. The sixth sense is the Spirit of God in you.

The evidence of the new birth is the Life of Christ living the present Truth through your body as it manifested the present Truth through Jesus in the days of His flesh. This is possible only through a clear understanding of the Word for your day, or faith, and a life surrendered to that understanding.

God did not arbitrarily declare particular individuals from among Adam's race to be elect, non-elect, or reprobate. This would eliminate free moral agency, making Him an eternal Puppet Master instead of the God of love and our Redeemer. Those whom He foreknew as drawn to Him in love by grace through their sixth sense are predestinated to be His children. Law, government and other means of force, even natural birth and inheritance cannot raise sons to God as prophesied in Isaiah 49:6-8, and confirmed since Calvary.

I Peter 1:2 explains this mystery. "We are Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, and consecrated by the Spirit for obedience to Jesus Christ and for the sprinkling of His blood" or new birth. Election is a product of God's foreknowledge of the decisions each of us would freely make and their outcome in our lives. Those who make right choices will surrender the desires of their natural senses to fulfill His Word. God's Word is His Spirit in a form we can receive by faith. Faith is a clear understanding of His unchanging Word, which is His will that cleanses our mind (Ephesians 5:26), enabling it to bring our flesh under obedience to Christ and our soul into agreement with the Word for our day for its regeneration.

I John 1:7, "If we walk in the Light of the present Truth, as God is in It, we are free from sin and in consequence of this communion with God we have fellowship with the Brethren, through which the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses those in fellowship from all unbelief in His revealed Word."

Christians are the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Ghost because the life is in the blood, and since the Life of Christ is in the born-again believer this cleansing of unbelief takes place inside the fellowship of the Body of Christ. It is through fellowship with one another that the Blood of Jesus Christ cleanses the members of the Body as the circulating blood cleanses all of the members of your natural body. "As iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens his Brother in fellowship" (Proverbs 27:17).

Fellowship is essential to and established for redemption. Isaiah 1:18, "Come now, and let us talk this over, says the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall become as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." Fellowship or communion with one another brings more excellent understanding among those whose hearts are already in broad agreement with the revealed Word of the hour (Amos 3:3; John 17:21-26).

This what Paul taught in Ephesians 4:12-32 where he explained that the function of the five-fold ministry is "to equip the saints for the task of ministering toward the building up of the Body until we all come into the unity of the faith and that understanding of the Son of God that brings completeness of character, tending toward the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ:"

"As a result we should no longer be babes, swung back and forth and carried here and there with every wind of teaching that springs from human craftiness and ingenuity for devising error; but, telling the Truth in love, we should grow up in every way toward Him who is the Head—Christ, from whom the entire body is fitted together and united by every contributing ligament, when each part is working properly, makes bodily development and upbuilds itself in love . . . rid yourself of your old nature with your previous habits, corrupted as it is by deceitful lusts: that you be renewed in your mental attitude, and put on the new nature that is created in God's likeness in genuine righteousness and holiness. Therefore, laying all falsehood aside, let everyone speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. . . And be kind toward one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you".

Hebrews 10:24-25, "Let us outdo each other in being helpful and kind to each other and in doing good, not neglecting to meet together for fellowship, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more so since you see the Day drawing near".

However, fellowship on the revealed Word of God is not possible with those who do not have the sixth sense. This is obvious from the hundreds of different denominations and religions listed in the telephone directory. Why are they not together in the love of God? Why do they not all worship together? Every one of their members has five senses but lacks the sixth sense. Hence they cannot be one with the Father and Messiah as Jesus prayed.

The mind of Christ or sixth sense in you brings the Word to remembrance and guides you into all truth. Your five senses cannot do that. They can perhaps lead you to justification and sanctification, but not to the "third pull," which is the opening of the Word. Revelation! You can be justified and not sanctified, and sanctified without being justified, or both justified and sanctified yet still lost. It takes that sixth sense to seal your soul to the day of your physical redemption.

Brother Branham spoke of the wise and foolish virgin who were woken by the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, which was the "shout" of his Message (I Thessalonians 4:16). He was the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6, the angel to the Laodicean Church Age calling the wise and foolish virgin out from Rome and her once Protestant daughter denominations into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the great translation (Revelation 10:7; 18:4; Ephesians 4:13; Romans 8:19; I Corinthians 15:47-58).

Both the wise and foolish virgin are justified and sanctified, and so long as the names of the foolish remain in the Book of Life they are saved and will be granted into eternal Life by the wise at the white throne judgment. Both answered the call of the seventh angel, came out from their denominations and received the "letter" of his end-time Message. They recognized William Branham was God's vindicated prophet and began listening to his tapes and reading transcripts of his sermons. They saw the true oneness of the godhead and were rebaptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. They gathered for worship in "Message" Churches, but from the mid-seventies, the revelation and Life of the Message began to unfold to God's elect, causing separation on doctrinal grounds from those who held to the "letter" without the Spirit.

Revelation 3:20: "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if anyone listens to My Voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me".

Christ's Bride is now feasting with the Lord on a seven course meal of the living Body Word revealed by the opening of the Seals. When the churches refused the revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963 they rejected Christ, who is the fullness of the Word hidden under the Seals. Today He stands without these cities of refuge, knocking, preaching grace to souls in these denominational prison houses, as God preached grace to Pharaoh through Moses' ministry. But the more persistently He knocks, the more they ignore Him and harden their hearts. But His petition is to individual souls, not organizations: "If any person hearkens to My Message and grants it an entrance, I will come in to him as an individual, and we two will dine together".

This is "lamp-trimming time." When the revelation of the Message began to unfold, the foolish virgin tried to trim their understanding but discovered they had insufficient Oil of the Spirit to illuminate the "letter" of the Message to show them clearly what the Prophet meant. They said to the wise, "Give us some of your Oil of the Spirit." But the wise could not teach Pentecostal babies Supernatural things and said, "Go to those who sell, (since Christ is not communicating His secrets to you). Ask your pastor".

When we awoke from our denominational slumber we were shocked to learn God's Word means what it says. We thought it O.K. to go mixed bathing, dancing, smoking, drinking, and even gambling. Women cut their hair, painted their face, wore miniskirts, trousers and clothes designed to display their form, while men wore uncut hair, short pants, and drank beer. Movies and television soapies were considered "harmless entertainment," and morals patterned after Hollywood.

We found Message Churches not at all like the denominations, which we quickly realized were nothing more than the world with God's Name on it. As we began to fellowship with real Christians and genuine elders, conduct, order and doctrine practiced according to the Bible was a real Armenian shock to the system, and we had to shape up to God's unchanging Word, or ship out.

Our early experience with real Christianity was like "boot camp:" legalistic but sanctifying. We needed discipline by the Word in body, spirit and soul before God could take us beyond the "letter" into the "Spirit" of the Message. Many ministers from those days, being Pentecostals have no part in Christ's end-time Bride. Consequently they do not see the Bride's revelation and cover this deficiency by preaching the "letter" of "The Prophet said, the Prophet said" and press legalism beyond anything "the Prophet said." Many of these Brothers are still ministering the "letter" without the "Spirit".

Romans 4:4, "Righteousness is the gift of grace through faith. If one could earn eternal Life by his good works, God would be in debt to the worker."

The elect either separated or were "squeezed" out from legalist assemblies that believed the Prophet of God but did not know the God of the Prophet, and they established new assemblies. Even so, every true Church has within it three kinds of believers. There is the elect or true Spiritual believer, the make-believer who is deceived (like the foolish virgin) and deceivers of others, and there is the unbeliever who is lost.

The foolish virgin do not possess the Spirit in sufficient measure to unlock the fullness of the Word. They are in the circle of this Message, and although they have the "letter" of the Message, can quote chapter and verse, speak with new tongues, and preach paint off the walls, the revelation and Life of the Message is absent because they lack the true baptism of the Holy Spirit. Evidently they were never presented with the revelation because their pastor is a Laodicean saint and not predestinated to receive it, or he is no saint at all; or because they were slothful and instead of searching the Scriptures daily for an understanding of those things that were new or different, they adopted the attitude, "If God wants me to understand this, He will reveal It to me."

Those to whom the revelation of the Message has been clearly explained, but rejected, are lost (I John 5:16-18; Hebrews 6:4). Christians are guided by their sixth sense, which is the Holy Spirit who guides us into ALL truth. Our five senses contact the world. Conscience, imagination, memory, reasoning, and affection are not infallible but must be brought under submission to the sixth sense witnessed by the Word of God.

Satan is the sum of knowledge and intellectual wisdom; he possesses all five senses and he can use your five senses to deceive, but he is without faith. The sixth sense enables you to believe the substance of God's promises because you see it typed in Bible history which foreshadows natural events prophesied for our day. The sixth sense will not rely on what it can see, hear or feel, or what imagination, memory or reason tell it, but upon what is revealed to it by God's unfailing Word of promise.

Sinner or saint all are born with these natural senses but when our soul is supernaturally re-born from Above we receive a sixth sense that elevates our attitudes, objectives and expectations far above the aspirations of our earth-born cousin, we begin to understand the mind of Christ and bring our spirit and flesh subject to faith.

Israel sought to serve God by obedience to Law in the strength of their earthly senses, without faith. God desires obedience from the inner man of the heart not sin offerings from the outer man, so He put away Israel with their sacrifices and self-works (I Samuel 15:22).

Brother Branham said, "To convert people to Christianity and to its government is not God's thought at all."

You say, "We made converts to Christianity by His government." That's not it.

"Well, they're not supposed to drink; they're not supposed to lie."

"Do you know the Mohammedans can outshine. . . Do you know the heathens in Africa, them black men. . . And they got laws among their tribe that'll outshine anything you can produce in Christianity."

"Why, I went to that tribe of Shangai there. If a young girl isn't married by a certain age, she has to leave the tribe, take off her tribal paint. She goes into the city; she's just a roustabout. Before she's married, she has to be tested for her virginity. If she be found guilty of committing adultery with some man, she has to tell who it is, and they're both killed together."

"Oh, they can outshine what these so-called. . . What if you did that in so-called Christians? Ninety-nine percent of them would die before daylight (that's right. Right.), both man and women. You know that's right."

"You say, "Well, I'm pure."

"Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery with her in his heart already." What about that? What about you sister, who presented yourself to that man like that? You're just as guilty as if you did it."

"Oh, but it's all right." Pastor's afraid to say that, 'cause why? His denominational headquarters will kick him out if he gets straight on that. They're hybrid. They don't take the Word. The Word said that's true. Jesus said that it's true, and He's the Head."

"Now, notice, God making Himself known. We're not supposed to make converts to Christianity by a government, but by the revelation of Christ in you as God was in Christ. As God was in Christ, Christ is in you. What God did in Christ, Christ does in you. What signs God did in Christ, Christ does in you. Oh, isn't that beautiful? Oh, my. I like that."

"Jesus said at that day (that's this day)—at that day (when this revelation's made known) you will know that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me, I in you, and you in Me. (When the revelation's made manifest), at that day, you shall know that I and the Father are One. I'm in the Father, and the Father's in Me. Then when the revelation comes forth, then it's I in you and you in Me" (Christ is the Mystery of God Revealed, p. 58:443-448).

I Corinthians 12:3, "No man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the revelation of the Holy Ghost or new birth".

John 14:19-20, "In a little while the world will see Me no longer; but you will see Me because I will be present with you; for I will live again, and because I have eternal Life you will live again. In that day when you are born-again with the sixth sense you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you".

Brother Branham said, "God making Himself known. We're not supposed to make converts to Christianity by a government, but by the revelation of Christ in you as God was in Christ." That's God making Himself known. How many Jews, Muslims, Methodists, Nazarenes and ministers in the circle of this Message try to make converts by applying government or legalism to a person's natural senses rather than leading them by 'agape' love to the present Truth so they can unite with the mind of God as Jesus prayed, and receive that sixth sense in their soul to lead and guide into all Truth through submission to the Word in love. Unlike 'phileo' love, 'agape' requires the sixth sense to unveil a clear revelation of the object of affectionate esteem, a quality the five senses cannot supply.

People seeking the Lord hear and are attracted to the Message because it unlocks the hidden meaning of Scripture. Suddenly they begin to understand what Moses and Isaiah, and Jesus and Paul meant beyond the dead letter of what they said. Something in their soul begins to stir. They start reading their Bible "to prove all things," attending church and fellowshipping with the saints. Perhaps they are rebaptized according to Scripture, or baptized for the first time. Maybe they are born-again Spirit babes.

Then what happens if some heavy-handed pastor, his deacon or over-zealous Brother or Sister starts laying down the law on wearing jewellery, smoking cigarettes, dress codes and conduct? The right doctrine introduced in the wrong way may retard the Spiritual growth of that babe-in-Christ. We are not sanctified by obeying laws through force, but by the obedience of faith. There is no righteousness in blind obedience. Believers need to understand by history, prophecy, and shadows and types from Genesis to Revelation the revelation behind a law.

Take the rules forbidding women from preaching God's Word, on modesty, marriage and divorce, non-cutting of hair and subjection to man. Paul's teachings in I Timothy 2 and I Corinthians 11 are firmly based on the revelation God gave to Moses on creation and the original sin. Such fundamental doctrines should be taught over the pulpit with additional explanation to particular individuals.

What heavenly purpose could be served by a congregation obeying the "letter" of these doctrines without the "Spirit?" This is not worship in Spirit and in Truth! In order to be able to explain his behavior and the reason for the hope within his heart to a seeker of truth one must understand the doctrine. If he is in the faith he will understand what he believes and why he behaves as he does, not blindly follow ritual which Brother Branham called, "manufactured holiness" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 38).

Colossians 2:20-23, "Since you are accounted dead with Christ, death has set you free from the elementary principles of the world, so why allow regulations to be imposed on you as if you still belonged to the world? Don't touch this, don't taste that, and don't handle the other! Such rules are mere human teachings referring to things which all perish as they are used. Such rules have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting rigor of devotion and self-abasement and unsparing severity of the body, but are of no value in combating evil thoughts and desires, serving only to indulge the flesh in pride".

That is the difference between "religion" and faith. Faith automatically produces the Life while religion works up a pretence. When you walk, do you consciously instruct each leg in its next step, or does it perambulate automatically? Even so, when the sixth sense has pre-eminence over your ten natural senses, the Token of the Life of Christ will be automatically displayed in your life.

In addition to the revelation, certain natural points should be explained before baptism so that candidates present themselves in attire that will maintain their modesty when wet. Further instructions in conduct, church order and doctrine, like the Lord's Supper, foot washing, tithing, and conduct in the sanctuary, should be taught from the pulpit.

God takes account of our motive and our objective in all that we do. The right motive and objective are more important than the result. Our objective is the purpose or aim we seek to accomplish, and our motive is what impels us to action: the love of God, or the pride of life? And how we set about accomplishing our purpose: according to God's Word in its season, or "whatever it takes?"

For example, what is the motive and objective of the brother or sister who wears a ring? Is it to signify they are a married person? Or is it an ostentatious display of riches and worldliness? Is that necklace or brooch something simple, perhaps a gift from a loved one, or is it a display of worldly excess? With what will people identify you, will it be jewellery and haute couture, or the Token on display (I Timothy 2:8-11; I Peter 3:1-6)? Will they see the glare of the world, or the glow of Christ? That is the question.

Although Scripture and Message quotes provide the answers, simply put it is a matter of moderation guided by the sixth sense. I John 3:18-22, "My little children let us not love in word and tongue, but in deed and truth. By this we will know that we are of the truth, and in His Presence we shall set our hearts at rest. When our hearts condemn us for wrongdoing surely God will feel it even more, for He knows everything we do. Beloved, if our consciences are clear, we can come to the Lord with perfect assurance that whatsoever we ask we receive from Him, for we keep His commandments and do what pleases Him".

When the answers to such questions are explained to a saint with the sixth sense those revelations will discipline their mortal spirit. This will bring their flesh into obedience, and the revelation will automatically take life in them. But if the Scriptural revelation behind the answer is not expounded, the obedience of the outer man will be the learned form and practiced ritual of a trained animal. This is make-belief, a sham religion and not the living Body-Word of the risen Christ.

Nonetheless, we should be longsuffering, remembering that some are slower than others and not every soul in the congregation is elect of God. This is not to imply they are not precious in His sight or that He will not use them for His glory as He used the wise counsel of Gamaliel, who quoted a string of Israel's false messiahs to preserve the lives of Peter and the apostles. For these non-elect love the Lord with all of their heart and perform great service to the Church.

As a revelation becomes clear it brings conviction: national or worldly customs, inconvenient habits and religious traditions pass away—not by the exercise of outward law or compulsion but by conviction in the inner man, and the sixth sense manifests the Life of Christ automatically.

Worldly folk sometimes speak of "blind faith:" this is an oxymoron. Faith is the infallible mind of God in you. Faith is the sixth sense given by grace, not government; imparted by the foolishness of preaching, not by demanding the law. However, some ministers are authoritarian and behave as though they are the master and the congregation is their slave, but the word "minister" means servant, and "pulling rank" as a so-called fivefold minister is no substitute for a clear Scriptural answer to a doctrinal question. Pastors make mistakes, and a pastor's word on a revelation does not make it THUS SAITH THE LORD or dissolve doubts. Scripture instructs us not to believe anything on the say-so of a man. A pastor's "Believe me" is code for "I don't know the answer to your question, and I will intimidate you into silent retreat." Don't pin your eternal Life on anything less than two or three witnesses of Scripture.

Ministers have no monopoly over the sixth sense; they are just a gift from God to keep the Body clean by the washing of water by the Word, and to bring it to maturity by the same means. Every Christian possesses the sixth sense in a different measure and every Christian in the assembly, including the pastor, has but one vote.

Your Absolute is God's unchanging Word from Genesis to Revelation. If the teaching of your pastor or Brother Branham or me does not match God's Word—fivefold ministry or no fivefold ministry—your sixth sense will not receive it. When Brother Branham made a mistake in answering a question on the Seals, his sixth sense and that of a Brother corrected him straight away (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 500-501). The elect of God cannot be deceived on the revealed Word of God (Matthew 24:24; John 10:1-5). Authority comes only by the Word of God to which we must each submit.

We follow Christ the Word. Not the "letter only" but its revelation by the Spirit. When the letter is revealed to you by your sixth sense it becomes God in you, to both will and do His good pleasure. God will receive the sacrifice of our life lived according to the sixth sense and that alone. eb423.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The 'hidden hand' has sucked in all power like a black hole and their 'human cattle' are apprehensive as a seventy percent cull is planned. But when earthquakes move earth from its axis at the opening of the Sixth Seal, the powers of heaven will be shaken. The firmament will dissolve as a scroll when it is rolled together. The sun will become black, the full moon will be red with volcanic eruptions, and the stars will seem to fall as Satan and his angels are cast out into the earth. But perfect love casts out foreboding of the unknown future as revelation dissolves ignorance of things that are to be.

Peter tells us to put on the character and virtues of Christ, "For if you possess these qualities increasingly, they will render your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ neither inactive nor unproductive; while he who does not have these is blind, short-sighted, and has forgotten that he was purged of his unbelief. Therefore, brethren, be zealous to confirm your calling and election, for if you do these things you will never fall".

Paul lamented over a Brother backslidden into Israelitish works of self-righteousness, declaring, "I fear and am afraid I have labored over you in vain".

This week I heard from a Brother who saw and heard things contrary to the truths we have taught. And processing his carnal experience through reasoning, memory, conscience, affection and imagination, listened to Satan's "strong delusion with all deceivableness of unrighteousness."

Brethren, we are not to trust our ten senses, which were given to contact this material world. God is not building His Kingdom on what ten senses tell us. We are to filter all things through the rock of Spiritual revelation of His Word and hard facts, then believe our sixth sense which is the mind of God in us.

Our Brother listened to my ministry and believed. But belief means little until it becomes faith. Faith is the evidence of things not seen, touched, heard, tasted or smelled. Faith comes from "receiving the word with all readiness of mind, then proving all things" so your soul is anchored in unshakable truths personally established, not in a second-hand religion.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,
Anthony Grigor-Scott

Earthquake Risk rattles Allstate

March 24, 2006– The chance of a major earthquake hitting Ohio may be low, but it's not remote enough for one major insurer.

Allstate Insurance Co., battered over the past 15 months by seven of the 10 most-expensive catastrophes in the company's history, is taking steps to reduce its exposure to disasters by discontinuing writing residential and commercial earthquake coverage in most of the nation, including Ohio. The company also is planning to shed some of the 407,000 earthquake policies it has in force nationwide.

"What we're doing is a prudent action to reduce property exposure to catastrophic events," Karen Spica, a spokeswoman for the Chicago-based company, told Business First. Full story: columbus.bizjournals.com

Is Western North America targeted by Scalar Weapons?

March 28, 2006– As Americans are distracted by manufactured news of an impending attack on Iran or the baseless threat of a bird flu epidemic, a dedicated campaign of electronic scalar tectonic warfare is ongoing worldwide that will bring America to the brink of destruction.

Within months, and possibly weeks, the northwestern coast of the United States will experience a tectonic and volcanic cataclysm quite unlike any other in recorded history. In the process, millions of people will die or be injured. The American economy will be shaken to its very foundations. In the process, a draconian form of martial law will be declared that will make our once cherished institute of constitutional democracy a thing of the past.

What would you think if you were told that America was being subjected to a series of irregular, electronically induced scalar tectonic attacks? What if you were shown seismic waveforms with anomalies that do not correspond to normal earthquake activity? Most people would think those waveforms and the claims that preceded them were just a hoax. Unfortunately, what you are about to view is not a hoax. . .

Where before it was guns and bombs, now there is electronic technology available that allows for a new kind of war: One that can do infinitely greater harm than previous weaponry. One that is essentially invisible. One that is relatively inexpensive. One that requires no dispute or adversary. One that can be conveniently blamed on Mother Nature.

It is easy to see why this technology is attractive to an elite intent on dominating our planet—and taking a large percentage of the population out while doing it. A perfect example is the Andaman Island earthquake and tsunami of December 26, 2004. This event was created by the sudden vertical slip of over 1000km of tectonic plate margin. Peak vertical slip was up to 20 meters in some areas. Talk about a whack attack! There were no large aftershocks. The event took the lives of 217,000 innocent people, left millions of others homeless and caused billions of dollars in damage. This campaign was over within a matter of hours. Others to follow will end just as quickly and with even more spectacular results. When the giant waves settle, fingers will point at Mother Nature as the culprit.

The next target on the hit list is the western portion of the North American continent. In this campaign, work is afoot on several fronts since the goal is far greater destruction. Many "atmosphere heaters" are involved in this effort, but not in the atmosphere. The impending events will involve earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and the eruptions of possibly two gigantic calderas. The combined magnitude of all these events will be so great that it will bring down the nation of America and, quite frankly, change life on our planet forever. The attacks that will accomplish this have been ongoing for some time and the results of these efforts will soon reveal themselves with catastrophic consequences.

Like the Andaman Island earthquake, there is a buildup of energy required to achieve the desired and quite sudden result. The larger the target, the more time and energy are required. And, because of the nature of scalar tectonic attack mechanisms, there is little evidence that they are now taking place.

What usually happens when tectonic plates move rapidly with respect to each other? Earthquakes and their resulting tsunamis Volcanic eruptions Death and destruction Secondary effects including disease, famine, economic and even political disruption

A tectonic weapon is able to achieve all the results shown above in a localized and controlled fashion. It is in fact the perfect weapon for world conquest. But to be effective on something as large as a tectonic plate, it takes two or three scalar tectonic weapons operating in unison at the resonant frequency of the target. Tectonic plates are massive objects requiring tremendous amounts of energy to move, if you can imagine that as a possibility. While multiple scalar tectonic weapons operating at the resonant frequency of their target produce heretofore-unseen amounts of energy, they only have the capability at present to affect the movement of smaller tectonic plates. These are very small movements. . . Full story: weatherwars.info

US to test 700-Tonne Explosive

March 30, 2006– The US military plans to detonate a 700 tonne explosive charge in a test called "Divine Strake" that will send a mushroom cloud over Las Vegas, a senior defense official said.

"I don't want to sound glib here but it is the first time in Nevada that you'll see a mushroom cloud over Las Vegas since we stopped testing nuclear weapons," said James Tegnelia, head of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

Tegnelia said the test was part of a US effort to develop weapons capable of destroying deeply buried bunkers housing nuclear, chemical or biological weapons . . .

He said the Russians have been notified of the test, which is scheduled for the first week of June at the Nevada test range. Full story: breitbart.com   Comment: How to make earthquakes in your own backyard.

Privatizing the Apocalypse

"Privatization" has been in the news ever since George W. Bush became president. His administration has radically reduced the size of government, turning over to private companies critical governmental functions involving prisons, schools, water, welfare, Medicare, and utilities as well as war-fighting. Now, the long arm of privatization is reaching deep into an almost unimaginable place at the heart of the national security apparatus—the laboratory where scientists learned to harness the power of the atom more than 60 years ago and created weapons of apocalyptic proportions. Construction giant Bechtel won a contract to run the sprawling complex. Why this urge to privatize the apocalypse?

Ascendancy of Finance Capital: Record Profits and Rising Authoritarianism

March 28, 2006– Financial capital wields enormous power over government economic policy through its direct representation in the controlling body of US monetary policy via the President and Executive Board of the Federal Reserve. The key explicit criteria for the appointment of the President of the Federal Reserve is the "confidence", close ties and solid relations which the candidate has with Wall Street. The same criteria are applied to all the key economic appointees, including Treasury, Commerce, World Bank and International Monetary Fund.

Long time Federal Reserve President Greenspan was highly respected and lauded not for his abysmal economic performance but for his policies favorable to Wall Street Bankers. Under Greenspan's Presidency, the US economy de-industrialized, accumulated huge trade and budget deficits and went through two speculative bubbles (information technology and savings and loans). He presided over an economy which reached unprecedented levels of public debt—doubling in five years. Greenspan's backing of Bush's tax cuts for the rich (income, capital gains etc) contributed to the huge budget deficit and widening inequalities. His policy of low interest rates fueled the speculative bubbles at the expense of productive investments. His backing for unregulated capital (dubbed "globalization") led to the re-location of US multi-nationals abroad (many of whom export to the US) and led to huge trade and balance of payment deficits. Yet all these policies which led to the disastrous state of the national economy, created extraordinarily favorable conditions for the domestic and international expansion of finance capital, as well as the concentration and centralization of banks into ten controlling units. . .

US and UK Forces establish "Enduring Bases" in Iraq

April 2, 2006– The Pentagon has revealed that coalition forces are spending millions of dollars establishing at least six "enduring" bases in Iraq—raising the prospect that US and UK forces could be involved in a long-term deployment in the country. It said it assumed British troops would operate one of the bases. . .

Some analysts believe the desire to establish a long-term US military presence in Iraq was always one of the reasons behind the 2003 invasion. Joseph Gerson, a historian of American military bases, said: "The Bush administration's intention is to have a long-term military presence in the region . . . For a number of years the US has sought to use a number of means to make sure it dominates in the Middle East . . . The Bush administration sees Iraq as an unsinkable aircraft carrier for its troops and bases for years to come."

Zoltan Grossman, a geographer at Evergreen State College in Washington, said: "After every US military intervention since 1990 the Pentagon has left behind clusters of new bases in areas where it never before had a foothold. The new string of bases stretch from Kosovo and adjacent Balkan states, to Iraq and other Persian Gulf states, into Afghanistan and other central Asian states . . . The only two obstacles to a geographically contiguous US sphere of influence are Iran and Syria." Full story: news.independent.co.uk

Biological Threat and Executive Order 13292

Avian Flu to be used as pretext for attack, not Iran's nuclear program.

April 4, 2006– We are back to the good old days when a Declaration of War preceded the start of a war. . . the formal war declaration against Iran, the National Security Strategy of March 16, 2006, stated:

"We may face no greater challenge from a single country than from Iran."

"The Iranian regime sponsors terrorism; threatens Israel; seeks to thwart Middle East peace; disrupts democracy in Iraq; and denies the aspirations of its people for freedom."

"[T]he first duty of the United States Government remains what it always has been: to protect the American people and American interests. It is an enduring American principle that this duty obligates the government to anticipate and counter threats, using all elements of national power, before the threats can do grave damage."

"The greater the threat, the greater is the risk of inaction ð and the more compelling the case for taking anticipatory action to defend ourselves, even if uncertainty remains as to the time and place of the enemy's attack. There are few greater threats than a terrorist attack with WMD."

"To forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries, the United States will, if necessary, act preemptively."

"When the consequences of an attack with WMD are potentially so devastating, we cannot afford to stand idly by as grave dangers materialize."

"[T]here will always be some uncertainty about the status of hidden programs."

"Advances in biotechnology provide greater opportunities for state and non-state actors to obtain dangerous pathogens and equipment."

"Biological weapons also pose a grave WMD threat because of the risks of contagion that would spread disease across large populations and around the globe."

"Countering the spread of biological weapons . . . . will also enhance our Nation's ability to respond to pandemic public health threats, such as avian influenza."

This has to be combined with the 2005 US State Department "FINDING. The United States judges that based on all available information Iran has an offensive biological weapons program in violation of the BWC."

In addition, the March 16 declaration makes it clear that the US will use nuclear weapons in the war against Iran:

". . . using all elements of national power. . ."

"Safe, credible, and reliable nuclear forces continue to play a critical role. We are strengthening deterrence by developing a New Triad composed of offensive strike systems (both nuclear and improved conventional capabilities)."

"Offensive operations may include kinetic (both conventional and nuclear) and/or non-kinetic options (e.g. information operations) to deter or defeat a WMD threat or subsequent use of WMD". . .

The Bush administration declares that a civilian nuclear program that gives Iran "knowledge" or "capability" to build a nuclear weapon is unacceptable. It could apply exactly the same logic to biotechnology.

The State Department says that "Iran is expanding its biotechnology and biomedical industries by building large, state-of-the-art research and pharmaceutical production facilities. These industries could easily hide pilot to industrial-scale production capabilities for a potential BW program, and could mask procurement of BW-related process equipment." Why isn't the US demanding that Iran stops its biotechnology research and development, and that it transfers all biotech related activities to Russia?

The key lies in Executive Order 13292, which made information on "weapons of mass destruction" and on "defense against transnational terrorism" classified. . .

On March 15th, right before the disclosure of the new National Security Strategy, I suggested the bird flu casus belli against Iran, that would "necessitate" bombing of Iranian facilities before the bird migration season begins in the Spring. Several elements emphasized in the March 16 NSS appear to support that scenario, as discussed above. . . An aerial attack on Iranian installations may be touted as the "squelching" of the bird flu pandemic spark. Full story: rense.com

Bush wants Capacity to make 125 Nukes a Year

April 6, 2006– The administration wants the capability to turn out 125 new nuclear bombs per year by 2022, as the Pentagon retires older bombs that it claims will no longer be reliable or safe. The plan calls for the most sweeping realignment and modernization of the nation's massive system of laboratories and factories for nuclear bombs since the end of the Cold War.

Government in Secret Talks about Strike against Iran

April 2, 2006– There will be no invasion of Iran but the nuclear sites will be destroyed. This is not something that will happen imminently, maybe this year, maybe next year. Jack Straw is making exactly the same noises that the Government did in March 2003 when it spoke about the likelihood of a war in Iraq.

"Then Government said the war was neither inevitable nor imminent . . . and attacked."

There are thought to be at least eight known sites within Iran involved in the production of nuclear materials, although it is generally accepted that there are many more secret installations.

Iran has successfully tested a Fajr-3 missile that can reach Israel, avoiding radar and hitting several targets using multiple warheads, its military has confirmed. Full story: truthout.org

Cultural Lobotomy: the Consequences

The elitist "Global 2000" genocide plan was submitted to President Carter by the US State Department. It called for the elimination of 2 billion humans by year 2000. This plan was endorsed by the Carter administration as official policy in 1980.

Don't be fooled by timing: dates are set early to negate those few who find out and try to warn others. When warnings look unreal and fail to happen on time, the public sees the warnings as 'scare mongering'; this increases their trust in criminal governments. Release of a highly virulent "bird flu" may well achieve the stated objective especially when aided by vulnerable "third world" populations already weakened by the AIDS virus. Do not be fooled by their pretend efforts to protect us, inoculations only become effective after the exact strain of a virus becomes known!

Note:

1: Government action, both national and international, is not conciliatory.
2: Industrial production now concentrating away from user nations.
3: Cultures are being mixed and distrust increased.
4: World economy collapse added to a world-wide health crisis would result in transport failure; critical shortages; valueless money. Rioting and killing, under pressure of starvation and disease, then become mindless and uncontrollable.

If you think this scenario extreme then realize that 'population dumbing down' in 'advanced' countries began a century ago! Would people, fully able to use human thought and reason, accept public announcements that future education would ignore needs of reading, writing and arithmetic? . . Full Story: themindweb.com

Meeting Doctor Doom

Austin, March 3-4, 2006– University of Texas professor Dr. Eric Pianka says the Earth would be better off with 90 percent of the human population dead. . . One of Pianka's earliest points was a condemnation of anthropocentrism, or the idea that humankind occupies a privileged position in the Universe. . . "We're no better than bacteria!"

War and famine would not do, he explained. Instead, disease offered the most efficient and fastest way to kill the billions that must soon die if the population crisis is to be solved. Full story: sas.org

Comment: Henry Kissinger's US Office of Population Control proved Piaska's assertion in the depopulation experiment known as the Vietnam War.

The Roots of Pianka's Genocide Endorsement

April 3, 2006– Eric Pianka knows that his genocide plan has its roots in the Morgenthau Plan for Germany, which was eventually halted by James Forrestal, who paid for his humanitarianism and his antipathy to the Zionist state with his life.

This is a Capitalist-Communist plan. Please don't fall for their WWII propaganda lies about Germany. The Zionists also claimed that during World War I six million had been exterminated. It didn't happen then or thirty years later. Never happened. But it is crucial to the justification of the Capitalist-Communist alliance that this lie be believed. How else can we reconcile America and the Soviet Union in a military partnership for three and a half years?

There was never a German plan or intent or the practice of mass murder of Jews or Poles or Gypsies or homosexuals or Russians or anyone. Neither you nor anyone else has any evidence to the contrary. All of the Hollywood-Nuremberg nonsense has no basis in fact.

What did happen, however, was a mass murder of millions of Germans by the US, England and the Soviets, in accordance with FDR's Morgenthau Plan, which was one of four main purposes of World War II: to save Communist Russia, to slaughter as many Germans as possible, to create the state of Israel and to Communize China. The overall purpose of this genocide and chaos was to support the price structure of raw materials, mainly crude oil. Communist countries can't produce anything very well due to inefficiency. Israel's placement in the center of the oil-producing Mid East guaranteed destabilization and higher prices for oil. Germany had to be liquidated due to her industrial competitiveness and general excellence. That is why half of Germany was Communized, the other half Capitalized, and all of East Europe and China Communized. That was the plan for as long as it would last, and it lasted until recently. Nixon then presided in '72 over the eventual acceptance of Chinese slave products after the American-sponsored Communists had stripped China of the entrepreneurial class, which had taken 64 million murders, according to the US Congress, by 1964.

At the same time as the German high command was being accused of bogus crimes at Nuremberg, General Eisenhower was slaughtering millions of German civilians and POWs by starvation and exposure. He was also sending millions of Russians and others to be slaughtered by his pal Stalin in Operation Keelhaul.

Why do you think the post-wartime memoirs of Eisenhower, Churchill, Patton and all the rest did not mention the mass murder of Jews or anyone else? It was because that they knew that all the death by starvation and disease they saw after the war was caused by them, not by Germany. They knew the extent of war crimes and post-war crimes committed against Germany by the Allies on a daily basis. They knew the truth, which is only now leaking out due to their guilty secrecy for decades. . . Full story: rense.com

Holocaust® is a Religion of Zionism for Gentiles

Teheran, January 24, 2006– The US Constitution mandates a separation of Church and State; that is to say, there can be no establishment of any single religion as the official creed on the US government. The Judaics managed to get around this through the "Holocaust." By pretending that the "Holocaust" is history, they turn what is actually a synagogue into a "Holocaust museum". . .

Skepticism is not allowed because the "Holocaust" does not entail the history of World War Two, rather it is a religion, the religion of Judaism for Gentiles. To question the details of the gas chambers is to be a "hater" and an "anti-Semite". Historical accounts can be questioned and doubted. Religion cannot be questioned or doubted. The Holocaust is a religious cult masquerading as history. It is a means for Judaising the West . . .

I don't think you can have real history by decree. Real history is based on curiosity and investigation, not dogma and preconception. The truth about the alleged homicidal gas chambers of Auschwitz, like the truth about the religion of Judaism itself (which is not based on the Old Testament, but on the traditions of the rabbis), would destabilize the whole raison d'être of modern Europe. . .

The President of Iran was quite correct when he pointed out that the prophets of the Bible may be attacked and insulted with impunity. The Talmud itself insults the prophet Isaiah by saying that he deserved to be killed for criticizing Israel. Because above the prophets are the rabbis. This too is a Talmudic principle. So we observe today in Europe the rabbinic tale of the homicidal gas chambers and the Kabalistic figure of "Six Million" dead, which is the last sacred dogma in the otherwise agnostic West. . .

Then shall the End Come

Matthew 24:14-15, "This gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in all the world for a witness to all Gentiles; and then shall the end come. So when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place—let the reader take note" . . . because from thereon, Jews and the children of Israel would be expelled from Jerusalem, and Israelites who are Christians would carry the Gospel to the Gentiles.

This apostle was writing to Israelite believers. In Matthew 24:1-3 Jesus' disciples asked Him three questions:

1. "When will the temple be destroyed?

2. "What will be the sign of Your 'parousia' Coming",

3. "What will be the sign of the (Gk. 'sunteleia') end or consummation of the dispensations of man's day and the beginning of the day of the Lord?"

Jesus prophesied the first two Seals in Matthew 24:4-5 and 5-6, then He said, "the (Gk. 'telos') end or termination of the successive Gentile dispensations is not yet." In verse 7 He prophesied the Third Seal, and in verse 8 the Fourth Seal with its three "woes." Then in verses 9-13, the Fifth Seal, which concerns the Israelite martyrs under their first Six Trumpet Judgments which manifest during the time of the first Four Seals under which we Gentiles are spiritually redeemed.

Once again we note the finer definition of meanings in the Greek in comparison with our English translations in which clarity of meaning is often lost and revelations hidden.

In verse 13 Jesus reveals that blood Israelites under the Fifth Seal who are obedient to Moses and the prophets—not the Talmud—"and are martyred for their testimony, shall be saved." These are not God's elect or they would be Christians, and although they are not born-again they are "saved" and will be granted into eternal Life at the white throne judgment, for Jesus said, "He who endures unto martyrdom (Gk. 'telos') shall be saved" (Revelation 12:17).

"And this Good News of the Kingdom"—the one great joyful sign of the approaching end of the Gentile dispensation and man's day, which contrasts with and outweighs all the preliminary sorrowful signs—"will be promulgated in all the world—for the preaching of the Gospel throughout the Roman empire preceded the destruction of Jerusalem and the end of the Hebrew state (Romans 1:8; 10:17-18; Colossians 1:6,23)—"as a testimony to all Gentiles even unto your death; and then shall the (Gk. 'telos') end or termination of man's day and the Gentile dispensation come".

We are not to read the Bible like a newspaper as it does not describe events in chronological order. These verses are a précis of Jesus' conversation and Daniel's visions and the reader must distinguish past history from the present hour and future unfulfilled prophecy. If we were reporting His conversation we would no doubt record many tapes or fill many note pads with Pitman scribblings.

Notice Jesus said, "This Good News of the Kingdom," not a denominational substitute of a false trinity, unscriptural Apostles' Creed or baptism in the titles, Father, Son and Holy Ghost instead of the Name of the One Person of God to whom those dispensation claims pertain (Matthew 28:19; Luke 24:47; Acts 2:38-39; Ephesians 4:5). So the end of the Gentile dispensation could not come before the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6, Matthew 17:11, and Acts 3:19-21 turned the heart of God's children back to the faith of their apostolic fathers and called the wise and foolish virgin out of Babylon to be filled with the Spirit (Matthew 25:6; Revelation 18:4).

God can do nothing of great moment without "first revealing His secret to His servants the prophets" (Amos 3:7). The apostolic faith once delivered to the saints had to be restored to bring Christ's end-time Bride into the unity of the faith (Ephesians 4:13) for the manifestation of the Sons of God (Romans 8:19) and the translation (I Corinthians 15:47-55).

Revelation 22:17-19 says the Spirit and the Christ's end-time Bride will speak the same thing. Zechariah 14:7 said, "It will be Light in the evening time," and Jesus said, the revelation that lightened the elect for the morning offering by the Gospel will be restored for the evening sacrifice of faith (Matthew 24:27-28). This is the Message Christ's end-time Bride is now preaching "in all the world" (Revelation 10:8-11).

In Matthew 24:15, Jesus said, "When you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" to which Matthew added, "let the reader take note".

In response to His disciples' first question, Jesus foretold "when" the temple would be thrown down and He warned Christians to evacuate Jerusalem as soon as they saw the abominable ensigns of the Roman Eagle on the Mount of Olives rising over the site of the temple. The same warning applies today to any Christian living in Israel as the standard of Rome's image, the American eagle, overshadows the once holy land. "The holy place" here spoken of was not the temple sanctuary but the territory round about Jerusalem, for it would be too late to flee once the temple had been captured. Besides, once the siege had begun, the city gates would be shut as on the sabbath.

Luke 19:41-44, "When Jesus came near and saw the city He wept over it, prophesying, If you only knew, even today, how you might enjoy peace! But now that is hid from your eyes. For the days will come upon you when your enemies will throw up ramparts and surround you, and hem you in on every side, and lay you and your children within you level with the ground; and they will not leave one stone upon another in you; because you did not know the time of your visitation".

On June 28, AD70 "the daily sacrifice ceased" from want of an officiating priest (Wars of the Jews Or the History of the Destruction of Jerusalem, Josephus, v, 2:1; Daniel 9:27), and on July 15, contrary to Titus' intention, a soldier fired the temple, and all Titus' efforts to stop the fire were unavailing. This was the very same month and day that Nebuchadnezzar burnt the first temple, God marking the judgment plainly as from Him. Titus himself recognized this: "We fought with God on our side, it is God who pulled the Jews out of these strongholds, for what could the hands of men or machines have availed against these towers".

Fulfilling Christ's words, the 10th Legion under Terentius Rufus "so thoroughly leveled and dug up, that no one visiting Jerusalem would believe it had ever been inhabited"  (ibid, vii, 1:1). Hadrian completed the fulfillment of Christ's words by razing the ruins still left and drawing a plough over the temple foundations. Jews were forbidden to enter the city on pain of death, but in the fourth century they got leave to enter it in order to wail on the anniversary of its capture, their place of wailing being then as now by the Western wall of the temple. Here the Jews every Friday at three o'clock, the time of the evening sacrifice, wail over their desecrated temple destroyed because of their unbelief.

Do you see the type of Leviticus 23:27-32? Israel killed the morning Sacrifice when they crucified Messiah. But they recognize Messiah; their evening offering will be the sacrifice of tears, mourning in atonement for two thousand years of blasphemous unbelief (Zechariah 12:9—13:6).

Oh the cruelty of sin, and the penalty it cost to rid sin from our lives. Still blinded after thousands of years, Israel is unrepentant to this day. And now most Gentiles are blinded by unbelief (Romans 11:32; Revelation 3:17-20). Whereas the close of our dispensation marks the end of salvation, God will open the eyes of 144,000 elect Israelites who were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary. Once they are born-again they will be hunted-down, then killed like dogs by renegade Jews and the false church like dogs (Daniel 11:32-35; Zechariah 13:7—14:2; Revelation 6:11; 12:13-17; 13:15-18; 14:1-5, 12—15:4, etc).

In AD638 the Christians surrendered Jerusalem without battle or loss of life to Omar, the second Islamic Caliph, as the Muslims would surrender Jerusalem to the Christian General Allenby in 1917, without battle or loss of life. But since Jews began colonizing Palestine, they have ceaselessly fought Israelites, Muslims and Christians with great loss of life.

Omar declared he would build a dome over a large rock on the temple mount from which Islamic tradition believes Muhammad's winged horse, El Burak, with the head and breasts of a woman and the tail of a peacock, leaped into heaven while he was on a night journey, as described in one of his visions. Rock levels confirm the old tradition that the Kub'bet es Sakhrah, or rock under the dome, was the altar of Araunah's threshing floor upon which Abraham and David sacrificed, and marks the site of Solomon's temple.

Sophronius, the Christian prelate of Jerusalem, was the first to declare the proposed Dome would be, "the abomination of desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet." Omar, however, did not build the Dome as he and also his successor were assassinated. Completed in 691AD and dedicated in 692AD, the Dome of the Rock was built as a shrine to Islam, while the Al Aksa Mosque was built as a replacement for the timber Mosque of Omar previously erected on the site.

The Dome of the Rock desolates not only the temple site and Jerusalem, but also the whole land. Its presence prevents the restoration of the now fulfilled Mosaic sacrifices and temple worship which since Calvary would be equally abominable and desolatary, which was why God destroyed the temple and prevented its reconstruction.

God uses sinners to exercise law and force to chastise His people with a view to their repentance and correction. On Mount Sinai He placed unbelieving Israel under the "Law of sin and death." He raised sinful Assyria to destroy the unbelieving Northern kingdom; Nebuchadnezzar to desecrate the temple and take unbelieving Judah captive; the Samaritans to prevent construction of the second temple until the desolations of Jerusalem were fulfilled; pagan Rome to raze the second temple and the city, and Islam to build the Dome of the Rock to ensure Israel should not return to their substitute animal sacrifices since they had slain the real "Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world."

Now that the Gentiles are apostate God has allowed unbelieving Jews to chastise and overcome us with the twisted laws of Talmudic Judaism, whence comes usury, Zionism, Communism, Nazism, capitalism, humanism, feminism, racism, party political systems, and bad character. As God rose up Nebuchadnezzar to punish Judea, He raised up Godless Communism to destroy the apostate false church (Amos 3:6; Revelation 17:12—18:20).

The Dome of the Rock has served God's purpose well, but the time is near when its function will be fulfilled. Soon He will destroy it by the earthquake prophesied in Zechariah 14:4-5 and Revelation 16:18-19 as a sign to the Hebrew people that He has returned to them with favor, and that the Gentile dispensation is over.

Historically, one is required to submit to Islam, or die. This testifies against free moral agency, which the unchanging God gave to the human family in Adam and Eve at the start. Anything less is an abomination. Enslavement to religious systems is a repudiation of faith and precludes the mutual relationship of deferential love between our heavenly Father His children. But Islam does not believe God has children, so 1.3 billion people are slaves to its traditions. Many will die (Zechariah 13:7– 14:2).

Daniel 2:46—3:30 describe how the times of the Gentiles were ushered in by the forced worship of an image of the holy man, Daniel, and Revelation 13:15-18 describes how they end with the forced worship of the image of a (supposedly) holy man, the then Devil-incarnate pope of Rome.

The Roman armies of Daniel 9:26 were not the only "abomination of desolation," and Titus was not the only Roman prince. Daniel 8:14 speaks of the previous "transgression of desolation" by Antiochus Epiphanes IV, who burned the Torah, burned Jews to death, and desecrated the temple in 167BC. While Daniel 9:27 speaks of a Papal Roman prince to come, the eighth of seven Roman emperors who were worshipped as god in their own lifetimes.

This anti-Christ will be Incarnate of the Devil at the close of the Pentecostal feast. He will sit as Messiah in a new temple to be erected "on the sides of the north . . . exalting his throne above the stars or elect of God" (Isaiah 14:13-14; Revelation 13:4). He will "cause the sacrifice and oblation" that will be reinstated by misguided Jews "to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations" he will force the mark of the beast, which is Trinitarianism, and Roman Catholicism "will make the temple desolate".

Thus we find in Matthew 24:15 a compound interpretation: the Roman legions of Titus, and the Dome of the Rock. The Dome of the Rock will be destroyed by unprecedented convulsions that shake not the earth only but also heaven at Israel's Seventh Trumpet and our Sixth Seal. The close of the Gentile dispensation will be marked by the sinking of Los Angeles and a 1,500 x 3-400 mile section of earth beneath the Pacific, while the cleaving of the mount of Olives will demolish the Dome of the Rock (Hebrews 12:26-29; Revelation 12:7-17; 18:21-24).

The demolition of the Dome of the Rock and a crippling devastation of much of the United States will ignite the presently phony World War III into its "hot" stage with Russian-backed Muslim attacks upon Jerusalem and the successful invasion of mainland USA by Russia. Rome will bring the world's religions together and restore peace, and her success will lead the peoples of the world to subordinate national sovereignty to a totalitarian one world government under the Pope of Rome.

A new edifice will arise on the site of the Dome of the Rock, perhaps "a Shrine of the Prophets to serve the federated union of all continents," as predicted by David Ben Gurion, Israel's first Prime Minister (Look Magazine, January 16, 1962). With Rome establishing its seat of world government in Jerusalem, Israel will become the center of the world (Genesis 48:16; Ezekiel 5:5; 38:12). Construction of a new temple would draw numbers of blood Israelites back to the Promised Land (Isaiah 11:11).

Rome will establish a seven-year agreement with the Jews whereby they will refinance the US dollar and restore world trade. Thus indentured, the United States will serve as Rome's image, enforcing her will, and eventually her false religion upon all peoples of the world (Revelation 13:11-18). In the midst of the seven years and with world prosperity restored, Rome will break her agreement with the usurers, doubtless at the dedication of the new temple at Jerusalem, and demand worship of her religion (Revelation 13:1-10).

The prophecy of Daniel outlines the whole of the "times of the Gentiles," from Nebuchadnezzar's defeat of Judea in 606BC to the consummation of life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2,8). His concern centered on the Spiritual well-being of his people which was bound up in their holy city, for life revolved around the temple worship which was the type of Messiah (Matthew 3:17) and God's elect (John 17:21-26) in that it was His holy dwelling place on earth. In the new heavens and new earth the "saved" will worship God in the form of Jesus Christ and His glorified Bride. Every adult male Israelite was to gather at the temple thrice each year under the shed blood of clean animals whose innocent lives were slain in substitution for their guilty life as a temporary atonement until Messiah, the true kinsman Redeemer, should come and pay sin's penalty by surrendering His spotless, sinless life, to remit their sins.

We can appreciate the concern of this great prophet, for without the temple services, offerings, and a sanctified high priest to mediate with Jehovah, the nation was unclean and out of communion with God. Because of Judah's sin, God raised up Nebuchadnezzar to destroy the temple and take the people captive seventy years. Daniel, who was only a youth when he was taken captive, realized that sixty-eight of the seventy years of the desolations of Jerusalem had transpired, and in two years time God would allow his people to rebuild the temple. Although Cyrus had issued his edict in 536BC (Ezra 1– 2), God used the Samaritans to prevent progress on the restoration until the seventy years of the desolations of Jerusalem had expired. When those years were fulfilled, a prophecy was given by the prophets Haggai and Zechariah for the building of the sanctuary at Jerusalem (Ezra 5:1-2, 5; 6:14). In obedience to that Divine command, and without waiting for permission from the capital, the Hebrews returned to the work in which they had so long been hindered. (See Newsletters 409, 410, 411).

In response to Daniel's prayer, God revealed how the Jews' refusal to repent and their determination to continue in sin would bring upon the people and their city seven times more servitudes, desolations and dispersions (Leviticus 26:23-24). The sixfold purpose of Gabriel's visit to the prophet explained how this wickedness would render them blind to the Word and will of God and deaf to the correction of His prophets. They would become so perverse that they would murder Messiah, and be dispersed throughout the Roman Empire as the Ten Tribes of the Northern kingdom had been dispersed throughout the Assyrian Empire. And outside the Land, the Covenant is not in effect.

Matthew 23:38-39, "Behold, your house is left to you forsaken and desolate. For I tell you, you will not see Me again, until you say, Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord".

Jesus no longer called the temple, "My Father's House," but "your house." His leaving the temple signified that not merely the city, but also the land was abandoned by the Spirit as a desolation or spiritual ruin. His Messianic work is now withdrawn from Israel as a nation although it would continue to glean an election until the destruction of the desolate in AD70. He now completely withdrew (John 12:37-50), and even after His resurrection He revealed Himself only to His own followers (John 16:16-33).

Jesus confirms here that the House of the Nation will not see Him but continue desolate until Israel is born-again in one day in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Isaiah 65:8; Zechariah 12:10-13:9; Romans 11:25-28). At that time the House of the Nation will be a temple not made with hands neither born of the lust of the flesh but 144,000 blood Israelite saints born of the Spirit (Isaiah 66:1; John 1:13; 3:5-8; Acts 7:44-50).

In I Corinthians 3:9-17, Paul says, "You are God's building" and admonishes the saints to build upon the foundation of the apostolic faith only sound doctrine that will pass the Word test. See Ephesians 4:11-16. If it fails the test of Holy Spirit and Fire, although the individual soul is "saved," it will have lost his opportunity for election (II Peter 1:10).

Riding the colt of an ass, a multitude foreran Him, crying, "Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord; Hosanna in the Highest!" But when he came to Jerusalem the people asked, "Who is this?" (Zechariah 9:9; Matthew 21:9-10). This was the dedicated temple of the Lord (Matthew 3:16-17; John 2:19-20).

The sixfold purpose of Gabriel's visit to Daniel points forward to redemption of the nation or people of Jerusalem through the conversion of 144,000 in the midst of the Seventieth Week. The Millennium temple signified in Ezekiel 44-48 is the 144,000.

Let us consider the city of Jerusalem and the abomination of desolation, for the Dome of the Rock is the symbol of Gentile dominion over Jerusalem. It will be destroyed by an act of God at the close of the Gentile dispensation.

Gabriel explains in Daniel 9:24-27 that God has determined 70 weeks of prophetic years in His dealings with Israel commencing from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem. As there are seven days in one week, there would be 7 x 70 = 490 days in seventy weeks. Like Moses in Numbers 14:34-35 and Ezekiel 4:1-8, Daniel assigned one year to each day. After the expiration of 483 of these prophetic years, Israel crucified Messiah so He turned to we Gentiles to call out an election for His Name, a Bride, leaving one week to Israel of which only the first three and a half years pertain to their 144,000 elect.

From chapters ten to twelve, Gabriel reveals the future history of the last three Gentile world kingdoms. Daniel 10:14, "I am here to make you understand what is to befall your people in the latter days: for the vision is for the distant future."

Now when we come to Daniel 11:35 and 40 which speak of Rome and her persecution of the blood Israelites "even to the time of the end . . . at the time of the end the king of the South (the Islamic states) shall push at Papal Rome, and the king of the North, Russia, shall come against him (Daniel 12:10; Zechariah 13:7—14:2; Revelation 12:12-17). As Jesus Messiah lay down His Life to redeem Israel so He could marry His Gentile Bride, now the Israelites must lay down their lives in order to receive His Life.

How close is that day? Daniel 12:4, 9 and Revelation 10:4 inform us, "the time of the end" commenced in March, 1963, when Christ opened the Seven Seals and revealed their hidden mystery through His Prophet, William Branham. We have been living in "the time of the end" for the past forty-three years! The end shall come when Christ's Bride has fulfilled her calling in proclaiming this end-time Message to the Gentiles (Revelation 10:8-11). eb424.htm

Physicist says Thermite with Sulfur dropped WTC

Ephraim, Utah, April 10, 2006– A Brigham Young University physicist said he now believes an incendiary substance called thermite, bolstered by sulfur, was used to generate exceptionally hot fires at the World Trade Center on 9/11, causing the structural steel to fail and the buildings to collapse.

"It looks like thermite with sulfur added, which really is a very clever idea," Steven Jones, professor of physics at BYU, told a meeting of the Utah Academy of Science, Arts and Letters at Snow College Friday. Full story: st911

Comment: Like Kristallnacht, the truth about 9/11 must be suppressed. Added to this is the urgent necessity to maintain oil sales in US dollars in order to support the currency. This is why the "hot" phase of WWIII cannot be delayed much longer.

Mind Games over Iran

April 11, 2006– "[O]ne of their strongest negotiating tools is the widespread belief that [the Bush Whitehouse is] irrational and capable of the most irresponsible actions. That is their record, so they have no need to invent it. If they can use that reputation to keep Iran—and everybody else—off balance, so much the better," he added, noting, however, that if that analysis is correct, "there is always the huge danger of miscalculation and accident".

Graham Fuller, a former CIA officer and Middle East specialist at the RAND Corporation, echoed this view. He told The Forward that the recent spate of articles "shows the fine hand of US (maybe UK too) disinformation and psychological warfare against Iran . . . (that) may now be intensified, perhaps out of frustration that the 'real thing' is not, in fact, on the table anymore."

Other analysts, however, do not see the administration as bluffing.

"For months, I have told interviewers, no senior political or military official was seriously considering a military attack on Iran," wrote Joseph Cirincione, a nuclear proliferation specialist at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (CEIP) last week.

"In the last few weeks, I have changed my view," he went on. "In part, this shift was triggered by colleagues with close ties to the Pentagon and the executive branch that have convinced me that some senior officials have already made up their minds: They want to hit Iran."

Third Retired General wants Rumsfeld Out

Washington, April 10, 2006– Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold, who retired in late 2002, called for replacing Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and "many others unwilling to fundamentally change their approach." He is the third retired senior officer in recent weeks to demand that Mr. Rumsfeld step down. In an essay published Sunday, he states that he regrets that he did not more energetically question those who had ordered the nation to war. He also urged active-duty officers to speak out now if they had doubts about the war. Full story: truthout.org

It is Time to confront the Exclusionary Ethnocentrism in Jewish Sacred Literature

This document is proof positive of the apostasy of the Christ-denying denominations. It is remarkable how these Gentile churches have compromised God's unchanging Word in order to gain favor with Judaism, which is Pharisaism, whose unholy Babylonian Talmud, once called the Tradition of the Elders, "makes the Word of God of no effect to them"  (Matthew 15:1-9).

By compromising, the churches have made God's Word of no effect to themselves, and will never be any more than "lesser brethren" or good little Noahides to the Jews.

In the Words of Jesus they are wretched, and miserable, and poor, naked of the blood and blind to God's Word, having "fallen away" as Paul prophesied (II Thessalonians 2:3). Like the Israelites of His day to this, they honor the Lord with their lips, but their heart is far from Him, so is time for "that man of sin to be revealed to the world". Full story: acjna.org

Total Deliverance calls for a Total Separation from Unbelief

God told the people of Israel, "Take note, I am sending an Angel before you to lead you safely to the land I have prepared for you" (Exodus 23:20-23, 29).

That Angel told us, "I am going to prepare a place for you in My Father's Kingdom, where there are many dwelling places. And I will come again and take you to Myself so that where I am, you also will be" (John 14:2-3).

We look forward to meeting Him in the air and going to the eternal land of the Millennium to which He is guiding us by the Angel of His Presence. This Angel is the manifestation of God and His Name, or the revelation of His essential Being, is in Him. Jehovah-Savior of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old Testament manifest in human flesh (Isaiah 42– 45). He has been Present with us since His second or 'parousia' Coming through the revelation of the Seals in 1963 (Acts 3:21; I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7).

Exodus 23:21-23, "Reverence and obey all of His Word; do not rebel against Him, for He will not pardon your transgression; He is My representative—He bears My Name. But if you are careful to obey His Voice, and do all that I say; then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries. For My Angel shall go before you, and bring you in to the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will eliminate them".

An angel is a messenger. Israel's priests were angels ordained to deliver instruction and guide the nation in the knowledge of God, but they corrupted the covenant of Levi and caused Israel to stumble in sin. "You have wearied the Lord with your words. "Wearied Him?" you ask in feigned surprise. "How have we wearied Him?"

By saying that evil is good, that everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and He delights in them." Or by asking, "Where is the God of Justice?" (Malachi 2:7, 17).

In Malachi 3:1 God says, "Take note! You challenge Me in your unbelief, saying, "Where is the God of Justice?" But your unbelief will not prevent Me from keeping My covenant, and bringing to pass that which you say will never be fulfilled." He promised to send His angel, John the Baptist, to prepare the way before His own Coming veiled in the temple of the virgin-born Jesus Christ. He is the Angel of the Lord and our kinsman Redeemer. He came in grace to redeem Israel, but God knew the wickedness of the nation.

God is not mocked. Knowing the thoughts and intents of their hearts, He came to His own and they received Him not, so He turned to us Gentiles to call Himself a Bride, a Queen for King Messiah to rule His servant nation Israel throughout eternity.

The books of Moses, Ruth and Isaiah 53 declared beforehand Israel's sinfulness. Malachi foretold how Christ had first to redeem the nation that had rejected Him before He could marry His Gentile Bride. He came as Israel's Redeemer, and on Calvary He redeemed the Old Testament saints and the nation—all 144,000 living today were foreknown—when He returns He will be the resurrected Judge Israel murdered.

Malachi 3:2– 4:6 asks, "Who can endure the day of His Coming, and who can stand when He appears . . . Then I will draw near to you in judgment . . . for I am the Lord and I change not . . ."

The Angel of the Covenant ended His ministry of Mediation at the end of the Laodicean Church Age and returned to earth as Judge with the open unsealed Book (Revelation 10:1-7). Redemption was over: like the 144,000 elect Israelites, Christ's end-time Bride was redeemed in Him on Calvary.

"No man has seen God at any time . . . for God is an invisible Spirit," like you and I. "God is love, and if we love one another, God lives in us as He lived in the Angel of the Covenant, and His love is brought to perfection when it is manifested in children born of His Spirit" (John 1:18; 6:63; I John 4:12; Colossians 1:27).

Thus Jesus said to Philip, "Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father" (John 14:9). And Paul said, "Your lives are our revelation of the Son transformed into His Life in you, known and read of all who see you" (II Corinthians 3:2; Revelation 3:20).

"Faith is an invisible substance, the evidence of things unseen" (Hebrews 11:1). Faith is a revelation of the mind of God, and if the mind of God is in you that invisible substance will be seen in your life. God reveals Himself in His people as He revealed Himself in the Angel of the Covenant. He revealed Himself to the congregation of Israel as Guardian and Protector (Exodus 23:20-23), but also as the God of Justice.

Exodus 33:2-3, "I will send an Angel before you to drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, to a land flowing with milk and honey: (God revealed as Covenant-keeper): but I will not travel among you; for you are a stubborn, unruly people, and I would be tempted to destroy you in the way" (God revealed in his Justice).

In verses 18-19, the distinction is between the glory of Jehovah and the goodness of Jehovah. "Moses asked to see God's glory, The Lord replied, I will make all My goodness pass before you, and I will announce the meaning of My Name Jehovah, the Lord: I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy." Jehovah means, "I will be what I will be" (Exodus 3:14).

Exodus 33:23, 11, "You may not see My glory in its full display—the glory of My face—for no man may see Me and live, but you may see its reflected splendor as it passes by in sacred obscurity." So "the Lord spoke with Moses face to face" is a metaphor for a private revelation between Jehovah and His prophet. Thus Moses the prophet stands as Abraham's son higher that Moses the Lawgiver, for the two degrees of revelation—glory and goodness go together.

Paul distinguishes between the form of revelation which Abraham received and the form of revelation by which the people of Israel received the Law. Galatians 3:16, 19, "The promises were spoken to Abraham and his offspring. It does not say the promises were to children, as it would if all his sons were spoken of, but as of one, and to your Child, which is Christ. . . Well then, why was the Law given? It was added to show sins in their true light, until the Offspring (singular) should come to whom the promise was made; and it was given by angels in the hand of a mediator, Moses, who then gave them to the people".

God spoke with Abraham and Moses "lip to ear." They saw the glory and the goodness of God, while Israel received only His goodness, which they tasted and rejected. Since Pentecost we are no longer servants but sons. Galatians 4:6-7, "Because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ".

No second-hand religion for us. John 14:19-21, "In just a little while I will be gone and the world will see Me no more; but you will see Me: because I live, you will receive eternal Life also. From the day of your new birth you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. He who has My Words and keeps them is the one who loves Me: and he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him, and will reveal Myself to him."

If you have seen this Message you have seen the glory and goodness of God. You have "seen God face to face." Jeremiah 31:31-34 prophesied the difference between a second-hand revelation of the Lord through the Law as a servant, and His personal revelation as a Son born of His Spirit.

The Prophet said, "We are living below our God-given privileges. When Jesus died, and rose again, All His works were complete; everything was complete, totally delivered. He totally delivered the leper from his leprosy. He totally delivered the woman from her blood issue. When He died at the day of the atonement, He totally delivered every sin. He totally delivered the world from sin, He delivered the church. So there's no need for us to live as underprivileged people. There's no need for us to live in a defeated state, because He defeated the devil and took all the principalities and powers and subdued them under His feet, and they have no legal rights to rule over you. We are Christians, filled with the Holy Ghost. We don't need to have the devil dictate to us. Christ has delivered us: total deliverance. He delivered us from evil, delivered us from sin, delivered us from habits, delivered us from talking, delivered us from blackguard, delivered us from all kinds of smutty things. He totally delivered us and put us into His holy hands, a complete, total deliverance" (William Branham, A Total Deliverance, p. 17:92).

God has received us in Christ. He accomplished the work of our deliverance on Calvary, and as He died He cried in a loud voice, "It is finished!" Back in the days of Israel He would not receive a sacrifice unless it was without spot or blemish. He was that perfect sacrifice, and if you are in Christ you are without sin before the throne of God. You will live your life as a sacrifice to His Word, acceptable to Him so that the Token of His Life is on display in you.

God's Word calls for a total separation from unbelief, for "How can two walk together except they are agreed on the Word?" We are at the end. When Brother Branham called this "the time of the investigation judgment" he was referring to the Ordeal of Jealousy in Numbers 5. This types the Seven Vials of Revelation 16 which distinguish the "saved" non-elect from the lost non-elect.

Brother Branham's Message will pour out the seventh angel's Vial at the Seventh Trumpet and Sixth Seal. Now is the hour to make your calling and election sure. It will be too late then. "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good . . . study to show yourselves approved unto God rather than men-pleasers".

Our once Christian nations are now ruled by men who know not God and believe not the Old or New Testament. This is the age of lawlessness. George Orwell's "thought police" already have this Church before the court for preaching truth to a dying world, and are doing their utmost to force 1.3 billion innocent but misguided Muslims to their deaths. When Los Angeles sinks and the Mount of Olives cleaves in two, they'll be after you too.

Make your calling and election sure. If you have any doubts in as to the one and only faith. If you are under condemnation for your thoughts and deeds. If you are permitting Satan to torment you over past sin and recent mistakes you have confessed and placed under the Blood, now is the time to accept your release from condemnation and place them back upon Satan.

The great prophet Paul was horsewhipped, stoned, beaten to a pulp and imprisoned by religious demons living under the delusion that they were God's chosen people doing God a service . . . without it being His will. His so-called religious Headquarters had Paul in chains for preaching the Gospel . . . those religious people put a man in chains!

Brother Branham said, "If it just wasn't the Constitution of the United States, they'd do the same thing today. That's right. Just wait till she's broke a little more" (C.O.D., p. 145:201). When God returns to Israel, Rome and her daughters will unite with the Jews for the second crucifixion of the Holy Spirit!

Church and state are uniting again. They can't nail Jesus a second time and will try to destroy His Bride, but she will not be harmed for Christ will take our hunted and persecuted little group Home. Take the unjust persecution of Bible Believers' Church as a harbinger of things that are to be. The persecution has begun. When Los Angeles goes, the false church will unite openly with the state and receive state backing as it did after the First Nicaea Council that preceded their thousand-year spree of killing Christians.

Ensure your life is a perfect and acceptable sacrifice by bringing your mortal spirit and corruptible flesh under preeminence to the Word dwelling in your soul.

As a prisoner on his way to Rome, Paul's ship was buffeted fourteen days and nights by storm. The Angel of the Lord spoke with him by vision and he encouraged the company, "Be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of life among you, but of the ship."

The ship was wrecked and all 276 souls made it safely to land where the natives treated them kindly, but when Paul threw some sticks into the fire and a serpent bit him on the hand, they surmised he must be a murderer, who having escaped the sea, Vengeance, the goddess of Justice, would not suffer to live. Mindful of Jesus' words, "If they pick up serpents they shall not harm them," Paul shook the beast into the fire and felt no harm. He was so full of the Holy Ghost the poison had no effect. The natives then decided he must be a god.

Brother Branham said, "give me a church full of the Holy Ghost. God will do in one year what all theology has failed to do in two thousand years. You wait till the anointing of the church really strikes home. They have faith, the little remnant. After the doors of the Gentiles have closed, oh, God will anoint a Church then. "He who's filthy, let him be filthy still. He who's righteous let him be righteous still, and he who's holy let him be holy still." And God will anoint the church with the power of God, and things will be taken place. Not only that then, but He's doing it now" (ibid, p. 145:203).

Last week our Brother Zbigniew wrote from over the sea to share a type he had drawn from some quotes of the Prophet:

"If our hearts condemn us." We want complete deliverance. We don't want to be a halfway church. We want to be a real Church, or no church at all. We want to be real Christians, or no Christians at all. We want total deliverance from our habits, from our sins, from our evil thinking, from our evil doing, from our negligence, whatever we've done. We want total deliverance, so that when people come into this Church to be prayed for, there'll be just this little group, maybe not over a hundred or two sitting here, but they'll be completely in the hands of God. And when we pray, then God will hear from heaven. God wants somebody that He can hold in His hands, somebody that He can say, "I got confidence in. I can send this, My sick servant, to the Branham Tabernacle at Jeffersonville, and that group of people are one accord." Something will happen.

Well, look what He does for us in the condition that we're in, what would He do if we were one heart and one accord? And the only way we can do that is unify our hearts together with brotherly love, obey the offices of the church and the pastor, and the pastor obey God; then God works through the pastor, through the board, down into the church, and all together are one unit to the Kingdom of God. Then God will hear when we have a unified group. Let nothing bother you. Don't be dismayed in anything.

Now, that's the kind of a person that God ordained to take the land. Moses was complete; he was a man who wouldn't compromise. If there were stews, and fusses, and so forth, he wouldn't compromise. That's what God wants of us now.

Pharaoh wanted to agree, said, "Moses, you all can go, but you leave your children behind, or leave some of your cattle back here."

That's the way the devil wants a Christian to come. "It'll be all right for you to join the church, but don't you never forgive Jones. It'll be all right if you can bring in your. . . You don't have to give up your smoking, your drinking, your lying, your stealing. Your faultfinding, backbiting, you don't have to give that up. Just join the church."

But Moses wasn't a compromiser; he wanted complete deliverance. He said, "We'll not leave one hoof behind. We'll take everything that belongs to us, when we go to worship the Lord."

That's the way the church ought to be. "We'll take righteousness; we'll take holiness; we'll take the Holy Spirit; we'll take a unified group, when we go to the altar. We'll be a real group; we'll leave nothing behind. We'll take everything. There won't be one hoof stay back here." You know, and people can pray in such a way till the Devil will have to give in.

That's the way Moses and his group did. They got over there and got under the blood. You noticed, until they got under the blood there was no total deliverance. Moses, himself, he was unified with God, but Israel wasn't; there was still sin, and they murmured against Moses, and they said, "Why do you do this? You bring more trouble upon us," because Pharaoh just doubled their tally of bricks and so forth. That was Moses; he was completely in the hands of God, totally delivered from sheep-herding to herd God's sheep. He was totally delivered himself; but the people wasn't delivered, because there was still murmuring among them.

One night when God ordained that a lamb should be killed, type of Christ, and the blood was dipped in hyssop, which is (common, humble) weeds, and put over the lintel of the door, and on the posts, that's when Israel become completely delivered, with not a hoof left behind. All that belonged to them was delivered. Their families, their loved ones, and everything was delivered when they completely came under the blood.

That's when the church shall be completely delivered, when everything comes under the Blood. When your sins come under the Blood, when your smoking, when your gambling, when your cheating, when your stealing, when your lying, when everything is brought under the Blood, then there'll be a total deliverance. If you've wronged somebody, make it right. You can't bring that under the Blood; it won't stay. You can't bring it. Something won't let you do it. When your self is completely, totally brought under the Blood, there'll be a total deliverance. Then you'll have a freedom like you've never known before, when everything's brought under the Blood, brought in submission to the Kingdom of God. Then there'll be a real deliverance" (A Total Deliverance, 15:77-86).

Raamses wanted to agree, "Moses, you all can go, but you leave your children behind, or leave some of your cattle back here." But Jannes and Jambres said no!

Brother Zbigniew typed Raamses with America's George II, the pharaoh who doesn't know our "Joseph," the Lord Jesus Christ. He was nominated America's most influential Christian in 2004. He has since slipped into eighth place, ahead of Pope Benedict XVI in forty-fourth. And Jannes and Jambres with Congress and the Senate, "For as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith" in these last days.

Egypt had been plagued with fleas; they'd been plagued with flies; they'd been diseased with boils, and I want you to notice, they had impersonators trying to withstand God's prophet, Jambres and Jannes bringing the same plagues but unable to stop them.

Now, here was a sign. God told Moses to perform healing down in Egypt. The magicians could do all kind of enchantments, Moses would call for fleas; they could call for fleas. Moses would call for lice; they'd call for lice. Moses would call for one thing; they'd call for the same thing. But they couldn't take it away. They could pronounce a curse, but they couldn't take away a curse. When he called for boils, they broke out in them, and they couldn't heal themselves. Do you see the mark of God is divine healing?

Paul said, "As Jambres and Jannes withstood Moses. . ." They could almost do the same things Moses did. There was only one thing that they could not do. They could not heal the sick. That manifested the difference between them. Moses could throw his stick down and it turned into a serpent; so could they. And Moses could call fleas upon the earth; so could they. And Moses could call boils upon the earth; and so could they. They couldn't take them away, but Moses could, showing that God is the only Healer. . . God stood in His power to show that real divine healing was miraculous to prove His omnipotence at the junction in the road.

At the end of the road He will raise the dead and change our corruptible old bodies into youthful, glorified form.

George II and his masters can produce plagues, but they cannot perform divine healing. They can bring AIDS, SARS, Ebola and H5N1 Bird Flu, but they cannot take them away. They can induce tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and freezing winds by employing chemtrails, earthquakes and volcanoes using scalar technology, condemn millions to suffering and death with depleted uranium WMD, but they cannot control or stop these man-made catastrophes.

Brother Zbigniew writes, Raamses, Jannes and Jambres now have only two weeks before they produce plagues which they will not be able to stop.

The iniquity of the Amorites is just about full. God set enmity between us and the natural and spiritual Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. That enmity is now more bitter than ever as they and all of their isms are in charge of governments through the controlled party political system, judiciatures through the B.A.R. (British Assessment Register), banking, money and finance through Rothschild's franchise, education through Rockefeller's franchise (a part of Rothschild), denominational churches through Rome's franchise (a Rothschild interest), the World Council of Churches (a Rockefeller creation).

Naturally, the people of the first and last Adam do not stand a chance. But we live in the Eagle Age, or fourth generation since Paul led the second Exodus. God has promised us a total deliverance in the fourth generation. Until that time we dwell alone, separated from all unbelief. eb425.htm

Mystery Tremors detected deep within Earth

April 13, 2006– Tremors deep inside the Earth are usually produced by magma flowing beneath volcanoes, but a new study suggests they can also be produced by the shifting and sliding of tectonic plates.

Scientists have recorded vibrations from underground tremors at a geologic observatory along the San Andreas Fault, an 800-mile (1,280-kilometer) scar in the earth that runs through California. The fault marks the boundary between the Pacific Tectonic Plate and the North American Plate. Tectonic plates are large pieces of Earth's crust that bump and grind like chunks of sea ice floating atop the ocean. Earth's surface is made up of about 10 major tectonic plates and many more minor ones. Tremors are sustained vibrations that occur deep inside the Earth. "Unlike the sharp jolt of an earthquake, tremors within Earth's crust emerge slowly, rumbling for longer periods of time," explained Kaye Shedlock, the program director for "Earthscope" at the National Science Foundation.

"Earthscope" is a project investigating the structure and evolution of the North American continent and the physical processes controlling earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.

San Andreas faultNormally, tremors are produced by the movement of magma in cracks and other channels beneath volcanoes. But there are no volcanoes located near the Earthscope San Andreas in Parkfield, Calif., where the new tremors were recorded. These are the first recordings of non-volcanic tremors deep inside the Earth. They were recorded in deep boreholes that were drilled down to a depth of about 2 miles (3.2 kilometers). Instead of volcanoes, the scientists think the subterranean rumblings might be caused by processes similar to those that produce tremors near the Cascadia Subduction Zone, an active fault that runs from mid-Vancouver Island to northern California. Those tremors are caused by the sliding of the undersea Juan de Fuca tectonic plate beneath the North American plate. . . The tsunami of April 1, 1946 broke over Pier 1 in Hilo Harbor, Hawaii.

Orphan Tsunami gets a Frightening Parent

December 20, 2005– Around midnight on January 27, 1700, a mysterious tsunami stole through several villages on the eastern coast of Japan. . . The tsunami struck not only without warning, but without an apparent cause. Normally, tsunamis are preceded by earthquakes. . . With no parent earthquake to claim it, the tsunami was labeled an "orphan". . .

Three centuries later, an international team of scientists and scholars has linked the orphan tsunami to a massive earthquake that struck a region in North America called Cascadia. Cascadia is located in the northwestern United States and is bounded on the east by the Cascades—the mountain range that includes the volcanic Mount St. Helens—and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. . .

Based on geologic evidence, scientists think that a massive magnitude-9.0 earthquake rocked the region sometime between 1680 and 1720. The quake must have lasted for several minutes because it caused parts of coastal Washington to plummet by as much as 5 feet (1.5 meters) relative to coastal waters.

In 1997, analysis of tree-rings from the Cascadia region narrowed the time of the natural disaster to a 10-month window, from August 1699 to May 1700.

tsunami

The Japanese written accounts of the orphan tsunami allowed the earthquake to be dated even more precisely. Scientists knew that an earthquake as massive as the one that occurred in Cascadia would have spawned an enormous tsunami—one that could easily travel across the Pacific to affect Japan. The two events had to be related, scientists thought. The researchers knew that a tsunami speeding across the Pacific Ocean travels at jetliner speed—about 500 mph—and it would take about 10 hours for a tsunami originating in Cascadia to reach Japan. . . Japanese written accounts of the tsunami say that the first waves were felt around midnight on Jan. 27 Japan time. Therefore, scientists estimate that the earthquake that generated the tsunami must have struck sometime between 9 and 10 pm Pacific Standard Time on Jan. 26, 1700. Full story: livescience.com

Bush Administration planning possible Major Air Attack on Iran

April 12, 2006– The Defense Science Board is headed by a guy named Dr. William Schneider . . . just as Bush was coming into office for the first term, they produced a paper advocating or saying, 'Let's not rule out the use of nuclear weapons.

Cheney, Rumsfeld order US outsourcing Special Ops, Intelligence to Iraq Terror Group

April 13, 2006– The Pentagon is bypassing official US intelligence channels and turning to a dangerous and unruly cast of characters in order to create strife in Iran in preparation for any possible attack, former and current intelligence officials say.

One of the operational assets being used by the Defense Department is a right-wing terrorist organization known as Mujahedeen-e Khalq (MEK), which is being run in two southern regional areas of Iran. They are Baluchistan, a Sunni stronghold, and Khuzestan, a Shia region where a series of recent attacks has left many dead and hundreds injured in the last three months.

Comment: The fruits of the pouring out of the Sixth Vial prophesied in Revelation 16:12-14 are reflected in Britain's treachery against her Semitic allies when she selfishly allowed herself to be blackmailed by the Balfour Declaration of November 2, 1917, and her division of their oil-rich lands for the benefit of the 'hidden hand' that rules her:

T. E. Lawrence wrote: "The people of England have been led in Mesopotamia into a trap from which it will be hard to escape with dignity and honor. They have been tricked into it by a steady withholding of information. The Baghdad communiqués are belated, insincere, incomplete. Things have been far worse than we have been told, our administration more bloody and inefficient than the public knows . . . We are today not far from a disaster" (The Sunday Times, August 1920).

The same administration now rules the US! The Commander in Chief and manipulators of intelligence and communications have led the people of the United States into a trap from which they cannot regain honor and dignity. In 2004, nominal American Christians voted George II the most influential among blind 'Christian' leaders. How do those who live on the border that divides the Roman empire from the kings of the East view this influential 'christian' who killed their families, destroyed their homes, and devastated their nation?

Niger-Gate: the Scandal behind the Scandal

In his January 28, 2003 State of the Union Speech, President Bush uttered 16 words that have since come back to haunt him. "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

. . . This document . . . was written from plagiarized student thesis papers. In one case, information . . . was 12 years old, . . . but included because it portrayed Iraq as heavily armed with banned weapons. . .

. . . Following Bush's speech repeating the Niger claim that Wilson knew to be false, Wilson went public, writing an op-ed piece in the New York Times in July of 2003 that exposed the claim as deceptive. As part of a campaign to discredit Wilson and prevent him from further exposing the truth of the matter, Joe's wife, Valerie Plame was revealed as a CIA operative. Not only was Plame's career ruined, but the company she worked for, Brewster Jennings & Associates, was exposed as a CIA front. In one of the ironies of the scandal, Brewster Jennings & Associates' mission was to track nuclear weapons in other countries. Since compromised and shut down, this has left the United States without the means to track just who does and does not have nuclear weapons.

. . . This is the scandal behind the scandal. . . . The fact that the Niger documents were fake is hard proof that the lies that tricked this nation into war were not an accident, not "misinterpreted" or "bad" intelligence, but deliberate falsehood with malice aforethought. We The People were lied to intentionally to trick us into supporting a war of conquest against an innocent nation that had done us no wrong.

Where did the forgeries come from? The documents had first surfaced in Italy, and in July, 2005 the Italian Parliament released a report naming four men as the likely forgers of the documents; Michael Ledeen, Dewey Clarridge, Ahmed Chalabi and Francis Brookes. Ahmed Chalabi is the former bank embezzler who was at one time expected to lead Iraq in the post-Saddam period. Of the remaining men, Michael Ledeen deserves special note. Shortly before the forged documents surfaced in Italy, Michael Ledeen paid a visit to the head of Italy's secret service, SISMI. Ledeen's entourage included Larry Franklin, since exposed as a spy for Israel operating in the Pentagon Office of Special Plans, an operational partner to the White House Iraq Group charged with "selling" the war in Iraq to the American people. Larry Franklin has confessed to handing classified information to AIPAC, the Israeli lobby. Presumably the information went from AIPAC to Israel. Less discussed is what disinformation flowed back from Israel through AIPAC, to Larry Franklin. What is known is that the claims regarding Iraq's weapons of mass destruction that came from the Office of Special Plans were as groundless as the claim that Iraq was buying uranium from Niger.

Larry Franklin is not alone in handing classified documents to Israel. Larry's boss at the DPB, Richard Perle, likewise was caught giving classified information to Israel in 1970. Yet another official caught handing America's secrets to Israel is Michael Ledeen himself, as a result of which he (briefly) lost his security clearance. Ledeen was hired by Douglas Feith to start up the Office of Special Plans. As a side note, it was Michael Ledeen who arranged Jonathan Pollard's job with the US Navy, which led to US Nuclear Deterrent Secrets being given to Israel, who in turn traded them to the Russians for increased emigration quotas.

. . . Running through every single aspect of this horrible mess are the clear traces of a foreign spy operation that has infiltrated the government of the United States to the highest levels and subverted the nation to the purposes of that foreign government.

As of this typing, the men who gave classified information to Israel are still in their positions. AIPAC, the Israeli lobby implicated in the spy scandal, still donates money to US politicians. US Politicians, more damning still, continue to take it.

The following actors in the Niger forgery imbroglio have ties to JINSA, The Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs:

1) Dick Cheney, Vice-President of the United States
2) Michael Ledeen, former Pentagon consultant to Doug Feith, head of Office of Special Plans
3) Ahmed Chalabi, former Head of Iraqi National Congress, deputy prime minister of Iraq
4) Major General Amos Gilad, head of Sharon's Office of Special Plans
5) Duane Claridge, JINSA member, military advisor to Iraqi National Congress
6) General Wayne Downing, JINSA, military advisor to Iraqi National Congress
7) John Bolton, UN Ambassador, touted forgeries in State Department "Fact Sheet"
8) Antonio Martino, JINSA defence minister of Italy
9) Michael Mason JINSA Assistant Director of FBI/Head of Washington Field Office.

Americans are the victims of the greatest and most deadly hoax in history; lied into a war of conquest. As we are Americans, and as we are in our hearts moral and just people, we cannot allow a single person who took part in that lie to remain in a position of authority or public trust, whether in government or in the media.

Kucinich demands Answers from Administration

April 14, 2006– The presence of US troops in Iran constitutes a hostile act against that country. At a time when diplomacy is urgently needed, it escalates an international crisis. It undermines any attempt to negotiate with the government of Iran. And will undermine US diplomatic efforts at the UN.

Furthermore, it places US troops occupying neighboring Iraq in greater danger. The achievement of stability and a transition to Iraqi security control will be compromised . . . retired Air Force Col. Sam Gardiner related on CNN that Iranian Ambassador to the IAEA, Aliasghar Soltaniyeh, reported to him that the Iranians have captured dissident forces who have confessed to working with US troops in Iran. . .

Iraq War, Round Two

April 17, 2006– Missing from the discussion over Iraq in the United States is the growing likelihood that the Bush administration will escalate, not de-escalate, the war. If they do, their goal will be to employ another round of "shock and awe"—namely, massive US military air and ground"—in a desperate effort to tip the balance in Iraq in America's favor in advance of the 2006 elections. The failed war in Iraq is overwhelmingly the key factor driving down poll numbers for the president, vice president and the Republican Party in general.

It's by no means clear that Democrats will capture either or both houses of Congress in November, but if they do it will open the floodgates for a never-ending series of partisan investigations by congressional committees, not only into Iraq but the myriad other scandals plaguing the administration. That's a terrifying prospect for the Bush-Cheney team, and one they cannot allow at any cost . . . a new round of US shock-and-awe in the Second War in Iraq must look awfully tempting to the Bush administration.

Rupert Murdoch's Jewish Roots

Murdoch "became an American citizen for business reasons," according to Richard H. Curtiss, editor of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs. . . While Murdoch may have "tried to hide" his Jewish roots, he has been quite forthright about his support for extreme right-wing Zionists, such as Benjamin Netanyahu and Ariel Sharon. . .

"Murdoch is a close friend of Ariel Sharon" . . . "Henry Kissinger, Rupert Murdoch and Mortimer Zuckerman are on the [ADL] dinner committee," according to a recent New York Times report . . . Full story: jewwatch.com

The Zionist Hijacking of the 9/11 Victim Lawsuits

April 14, 2006– While the media plays up the significance of the government show trial of the seemingly deranged "20th hijacker" Zacharias Moussaoui, not one 9/11 victim's lawsuit has been allowed to be heard in a trial by jury. Why have the 9/11 victims' families not been given the same right to have their cases heard in an open trial by a jury of their peers?

Ellen Mariani, who lost her husband Neil on United Air Lines (UAL) Flight 175, filed the first 9/11 wrongful death lawsuit against UAL on December 20, 2001. Interviewed on national television in May 2002 by Bill O'Reilly of FOX News, O'Reilly repeatedly questioned Mariani about why she had chosen to pursue litigation instead of accepting the government fund.

"I want justice," Mariani said. "I want accountability. Who is responsible? I want the truth."

Today, Mariani, like the other 9/11 plaintiffs, is under a legal gag order which prevents her from speaking about her on-going lawsuit. Likewise, thousands of employees of federal agencies, such as the Federal Aviation Administration, have received secret gag orders in the mail preventing them from speaking about what they know about the events of 9/11. . .

All of the relatives' wrongful death lawsuits, i.e. criminal cases, against the airlines and their security companies were consolidated by the presiding judge into a negligence lawsuit, which, as a civil case, is much less likely to be argued or investigated in an open trial with a jury . . .

[Judge] Hellerstein, however, is not the only player overseeing the 9/11 litigation process who has close ties to Israel. In fact, all of the key players and law firms involved are either active Zionists or do a great deal of business representing Israeli companies and/or the state of Israel. . .

The Sixth Vial

Psalm 2:1-3, "Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves against the Lord and against His anointed, and the rulers take counsel together, saying, Let us break His chains, and free ourselves from all this slavery to God".

God Bless you in the wonderful Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Please open your Bibles at Revelation Chapter 16 and follow as we study from verses 12 to 17.

Between the Sixth and Seventh Vials Brother Branham the angel of Revelation 1:1 shows John, who represents Christ's end-time Bride throughout this Book as Ezekiel represented Israel and Judah in chapter 4 of his Book, how the nominally Christian world has become impotent like Samson, having forsaken its vows of separation; and how God is gathering those who trouble us to the place of vengeance (II Thessalonians 1:3-10).

Judaeo-Communism will destroy the apostate Papal Roman Empire of Christendom as king Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Judea, and raze Vatican City with nuclear fire as he burned the Temple at Jerusalem. Under the Sixth Vial, the protection of what little Holy Spirit existed in denominational creeds and fear of Rome's superstitious traditions has atrophied. Her enemy is the rulers over the East, whose godless propaganda has invaded the minds of sinful men by teaching "all men are created equal," thus stripping kings and popes of their authority, and Rome of her religious power. But with the indwelling Spirit as our defence we know Rome presents a greater danger than Communism, and that "the Holy Spirit who now withholds the advent of the Beast will restrain until He is taken from the earth in the translation of Christ's Bride."

As Brother Branham explained, "Joseph was sold for almost thirty pieces of silver by his brothers: the Jewish church betrayed Joseph. Today what is it in this church? A betrayal . . . you just keep this on your mind.

"They're going to have a confederation of churches . . . with the Protestant church and the Catholic church together. And the interdenominations who stand out for the truth, and get away from that dogma that they've got, will be persecuted. The mark of the beast, the Seal of God, the showdown will soon come. And, brother, if That's not in there, you'll be deceived as sure as the world, 'cause it'll look so nice. You'll say, "Now, if Communism . . . let us make another agreement . . . and Christianize the world back." And . . . the people will jump into it. See? They'll confederate the churches, and bring, try to make Christianity one unit. And the Bible says in Revelation that he gave his power and everything, that he made an image unto the beast and exercised all the power the beast did before him . . . see where it's at. You're right here in the end of time, brother. We're at the end of the age" (Israel in Egypt, p. 26:166-167).

Revelation 16:12-14, "The sixth angel poured out his vial on the great river Euphrates; and its water was dried up, so that the kings of the east could march westward. 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. For they are the spirits of demons, working miracles, which confer with the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to muster them for battle on that great day of God Almighty".

Euphrates was the Eastern border and defense of the Roman Empire and signifies the limit of Christian influence. Its source lay on the Northern boundary of Israel and flowed through Babylon into the Deep, which represents the abyss. Israel flowed with the river into Babylon and apostasy. Apostate Israel was the birthplace of Christian faith but the nominal church floated into Babylon and is sinking in the abyss (Romans 11:32).

The drying up of the Euphrates signifies the departure of the Holy Spirit from Rome's once Protestant daughters, as Ezekiel's vision of the Shekinah leaving the temple signified God's departure from Judea. Like Judea, the nominal church surrendered her liberty in the Spirit. By organizing after each revival it was unable to receive further revelation from the Lord but formed a further Roman legion bound in its denominational city of refuge until the death of that Church Age and the Gospel trumpet to the succeeding Age (Numbers 35).

With the drying up of the great river at the end of Laodicea, the church became "the dwelling place of demons, and prison of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird." The "Shout" of the Message of the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7 called the wise and foolish virgin out of Babylon. Denominational religion was no longer a refuge for the Man slayer, and the days of Christ's mediation for PART-Word were over once the revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth as the fullness of the Word (Acts 3:21: I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7).

As God allowed Babylon to rise up and destroy apostate Judah, He has permitted Judaeo-Communism to arise for the destruction of the apostate church. Rome is no longer secure from attack by her barbaric enemies, and must again resort to political and military force to reinstate her authority. This apostasy among the churches signals the imminent end of the Gentile dispensation (II Thessalonians 2:3-7).

These kings whose irreligious socio-political philosophy rules the east are empowered through Roman apostasy, signified by the drying up of the Euphrates. The Seventh Vial is poured out into the air, upon which all creatures depend for natural life and it types the fourth dimension from which we draw our Spiritual Life. The Seventh Vial vindicates the three angels of Revelation 14 who warned of Rome's fall and imminent destruction, which will be lamented by the commercial world (Revelation 18:7-19).

The Zoroastrians of Iran believe the frog was a special agent of Ahriman, or Satan. Zoroaster taught 300 years before Alexander the Great, and is said to have founded the wisdom of the magi. These demons are likened to frogs which are abominable creatures that look back to the First Nicaea Council where they imposed the Babylonian trinitarian religion upon Christianity (Leviticus 11:10).

As Rome is the "mother of harlots and abominations of the earth" it is appropriate that these demons should be identified with Rome and her image (Revelation 18:5). These evil spirits look back like frogs on three stages of Satan's incarnation: the Dragon of Imperial Rome, the beast or incarnate Pope, and the false prophet who is the first Pope and his successors prior to Satan's casting-out from heaven and incarnation at the close of our dispensation. Spirits follow words; Rome's doctrine is deceit and anathema to God's Word. In Revelation 17, the woman controlling the beast is the Roman Catholic church. "And she had in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication," which is the doctrine that came out of her mouth.

I searched the word 'abomination' in the Bible. Aside from foods proscribed by the Law it includes homosexuality, sex with women in menstruation, adultery, buggery, incest, the wages of sexual immorality, fornication, cross-dressing, idolatry, false teaching, atheism, rejecting the faith, and murder. According to Proverbs 6:16-19, "six things does the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto Him: A proud look, lying, murdering, plotting evil, eagerness to do wrong, a false witness, and sowing discord among brethren".

The widely-ranging activity of these spirits signals the spread of falsehood and mutiny against God among world leaders as they are drawn together into the culminating assault of creaturely defiance. Possessed of Satanic power they are able to perform wonders like uniting churches by interfaith unions such as the World Council of Churches; and nations through multiculturalism and miscegenation enforced by United Nations' treaties contrary to faith (Amos 3:3; Genesis 1:11; 6:1-13; Deuteronomy 32:8; Matthew 24:37; Revelation 13-14). Jesus gave believers "power against unclean spirits, to cast them out" (Matthew 10:1). These unclean spirits are only able to manifest through the words of world leaders because the people are not sanctified by God's indwelling Word (Matthew 17:21).

The key word under the Sixth Vial is "sanctification" because the evidence or Token of the Life of Christ in the saints of the Philadelphian Church Age, which began in 1750, was holiness through "experiential" faith in the Message of the "angel" John Wesley. The sixth angel's Vial has been pouring forth since the close of that Age in 1906 to test the confession of the non-elect in order to distinguish the "saved" foolish virgin from the false church.

Rejection of holiness was the fruit of disrespect and unbelief in God's Word—in particular the Message of the messenger to that Age. This manifested in carelessness of speech and manner, immodest dress, the hubris of so-called "higher" criticism of the Word of God, pitting science against faith, experimenting with the occult, eastern religions, socialism, evolution, and "removing the ancient landmark" between East and West as foretold by Jesus in Revelation 16:12-16, expounded by God's prophet Brother Branham, observed and elaborated by Henry Ford:

"Readers of our articles will see at once that we are not actuated by any kind of prejudice, except it may be a prejudice in favor of the principles which have made our civilization".

"There had been observed in this country certain streams of influence which were causing a marked deterioration in our literature, amusements, and social conduct; business was departing from its old-time substantial soundness; a general letting-down of standards were felt everywhere. It was not the robust coarseness of the white man, the rude indelicacy, say, of Shakespeare's characters, but a nasty Orientalism which has insidiously affected every channel of expression—and to such an extent that it was time to challenge it. The fact that these influences are all traceable to one racial source is a fact to be reckoned with . . . Our opposition is only to ideas, false ideas, which are sapping the moral stamina of the people. These ideas proceed from easily identified sources, they are promulgated by easily discoverable methods and they are controlled by mere exposure."

"When people learn to identify the source and nature of the influence swirling around them, it is sufficient. Let the American people once understand that it is not natural degeneracy but calculated subversion that afflicts us, and they are safe."

"The explanation is the cure. This work was taken up without personal motives. When it reached a stage where we believed the American people could grasp the key, we let it rest for the time. Our enemies say that we began it for revenge and that we laid it down in fear. Time will show that our critics are merely dealing in evasion because they dare not tackle the main question."

Eighty years later we find any semblance of sanctification has disappeared even from the worship service. Looking back over the past century since the Sixth Vial was poured out we see in the conduct of the present generation proof positive that the blessings and curses of the Messengers to the seven Church Ages of Revelation 2– 3 are cumulative. This falling away from once-accepted standards "prepared the way for the kings of the East." People understood the "explanation," but the "cure" required they subject their natural senses to God's Holy Word. Discipline fell to compromise, and thought surrendered to sensation. The kings of the East infiltrated the Bible schools and taught men to make friends with the world. Man-pleasing ministers capitulated, fearing "the whole council of God" might scatter their Sunday Christians to rival denominations and upset their earth-bound Head Office.

This new trinity manifested between the Sixth and Seventh Vials, just before the Seals opened to finish the mystery of God. That's when we saw Vatican II, and the ecumenical movement develop among Rome's Protestant daughters. The warning of verse 15, not to be caught "naked" places this at the end of Laodicea (Revelation 3:17; 19:8).

Words carry spirits. We receive the Holy Spirit through faith in the revealed Word of God. There is no other way. Demonic power is also incarnate by words. Curses, spells, incantations, hatred, lies and blasphemies are all invoked by words, as are truths, love, blessings, promises, confessions, healings and forgiveness.

Demonic spirits came from the mouth of the Dragon when Imperial Rome stood before Israel to devour Jesus (Revelation 12); imparted lies through the mouth of papal false prophets, and will rule the NWO through the mouth of the beast or incarnate last pope of Rome. [The Alfa Romeo Logo is the crest of Milan, a composite of the Crusader's Cross on a white field of the Borromeo family, and the Biscione, a viper, swallowing a child, usually described as a Moor, or Saracen. This was the crest of the Visconti and later the Sforza family. The crown signifies the merger of the two families].

Frogs look back through bulging eyes whereas God's living creatures have four heads that see in every direction while always looking forward. These demons look back to the First Nicaea Council where the world power of Imperial Rome was transformed into Papal Rome. Through ecumenism Rome will form yet another image, 'front' or false face behind which she will enforce the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:11-18). The final incarnation of this demonic power, atheistic Judaeo-Communism, will burn Rome and her image and "gather the kings of the world together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon".

These unclean and abominable spirits are uniting world leaders to take global domination. The UN is the vehicle by which they will achieve the first stage of one world government under Rome (Revelation 16:13-14). After the Seventh Trump the language changes from Greek to Hebrew, for after Rome breaks her agreement with the Banksters in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week, Esau will destroy Vatican City and the United States to wrest dominion for Judaeo-Communism (Daniel 9:27; Genesis 27:40-41; Revelation 17:16-18). But Rome and Communism are both expendable once their roles have been fulfilled.

Psalm 2:1-3, "Why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves against the Lord and against His anointed, and the rulers take counsel together, saying, Let us break His chains, and free ourselves from all this slavery to God".

The kings of the East were the traditional enemies of Israel and of Imperial Rome, which became Papal Rome and divided between East and West. After the close of the Gentile dispensation and Russia's successful invasion of mainland USA, and after Rome and the rulers of the West have restored peace, they will form an alliance to establish a NWO, ostensibly to contain Communism from the East (Revelation 13; 16:13-14, 17). Through the UN, both Eastern and Western divisions of the old empire will participate. Already we see some of the satellite countries of the old Warsaw Pact have joined NATO and even the European Union.

Revelation 16:12-16 is the uniting time in the struggle of man against man against God, for the great eschatological battle of Revelation 19:11– 20:10. This union of churches, institutions and nations built upon the shifting sands of nineteenth century rationalization against the faith has distilled in twentieth century atheism, Fascism, Nazism, Communism, Zionism, Humanism, Feminism, Unionism, Capitalism and a host of other "isms"—all born of the same spirit. But for those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, God sent and vindicated the prophet William Branham, who said, "Watch Russia, king of the North"? How many has heard me just say this, wave that over, over? The old-timers (You see?), back in the early part of the church. Just stand there and wave it over and over, "Watch Russia, the king of the North. See, what he would do, for all those isms will heap up into Russia" (Laodicean Church Age, p. 501:44). That is, Judaeo-Communism.

Since that time, Christ has revealed the Seven Seals to gather the children of Light out of all denominations, and prepare us by faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation, while this trinity of evil spirits "gathers the whole world to the battle of that great day of God Almighty." It is "they" who "gather the children of Darkness together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon," impelled by a "strong delusion that they should believe the lie, so that all who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness should be damned" (II Thessalonians 2:11-12).

As the sinner receives the words of error and falsehood he receives the spirit of Satan "who is a liar and the father of lying" (John 8:44). Words carry spirits and those who are deluded are demon-oppressed, or possessed.

The narrative resumes in Revelation 19:19– 20:3, "And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him that sat on the horse, and against His army. 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. And the remnant was 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.

It is not the Salvation Army that makes war with the beast and slays the armies of Rome and the Judaeo-Communist forces, but the Word of God that proceeds from His mouth as the Sword of the Spirit. Words carry spirits.

"And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the Dragon, that old serpent, who is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 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, after which he must be loosed a little season".

Had they but recognized their day and its Message, they would have received their Lord. Let's turn back to verse 15, "Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walks naked, and they see his shame." They imagine they are Christians but they are "wretched and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked (of the blood or Spirit), and know it not". Verse 15 warns Christ's people to be watching for His parousia. Like a thief, His manner in this Coming is unexpected and unseen. His people are admonished to be expectant, and to keep their clothes on, which men usually put off when they sleep, that is, to keep themselves unspotted by the world, and watching, clothed in the righteousness of white linen.

Jesus foretold that after His 'parousia' was introduced, "false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and show signs and wonders, to seduce if it were possible, even the elect" (Mark 13:22; II Thessalonians 2:9-12; I Timothy 4:1; II Timothy 3:1-13). These false anointed ones and false teachers, even within the circle of this Message, are gathering souls by a strong delusion that causes them believe falsehood.

Revelation 16:16, "They gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon," meaning 'hill or city of slaughter.' This verse is set right at the end of the Gentile dispensation, for when it has ended God will speak the Word of Life to 144,000 elect blood Israelites, and Words of condemnation, even damnation, to their impersonators and enemies, as during the Church Ages the Spirit spoke expressly to the Gentile "churches," plural. To the elect and Word-born Bride He spoke Words of blessing and Life, but to the nominal church He spoke Words of correction and rebuke.

This victory will be the Lord's who's enemies will be broken without hand, for it will be won by the manifestation of God's Word that has been spoken. From the sounding of Israel's Seventh Trumpet it will all be "third pull".

Zechariah 12:10-11 speaks of good king Josiah who was slain in the valley of Megiddon. "And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications, and they shall look upon Me Whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning at Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon".

The place of conflict is likened in Joel 3:2 to the valley of Berachah (or "Blessing") where Jehoshaphat defeated the Gentiles. "I will gather the armies of all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will punish them there for harming My people whom they have scattered among the nations, and My heritage, Israel, which they have divided." Moab and Ammon with the Edomites (whom God would not let Israel to invade on their journey to the Promised Land) invaded Israel. But God anointed a Levite, who prophesied "the battle is the Lord's," and when Israel goes to do battle, they should find their enemies have fought themselves to death (II Chronicles 20:22-30).

What a perfect type. This is God's prophecy for the end-time! "It shall come to pass in that day, that they will be seized with great panic from the Lord, and fight against each other in hand-to-hand combat" (Zechariah 14:13, Daniel 12:1,12).

We read in Ezekiel 39:17 and Revelation 19:17-21, "I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, "Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, small and great."

"And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him that sat on the horse, and against His army. 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. And the remnant was slain with the sword of Him that sat upon the horse, which proceeded out of His mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh".

The scene of this final struggle of good against evil is also suggested by that battle plain of Esdraelon, which was famous for two great victories: of Barak over the Canaanites (Judges 5), and of Gideon over the Midianites (Judges 7); and for two great disasters, the deaths of Saul and Josiah (II Kings 23:29). Hence in Revelation a place of great slaughter and the scene of a terrible retribution upon the wicked. (There is a parallel between Judges 5 and Revelation 14 and 15. In Judges we find one of the two Old Testament triumphal songs of Israel; in Revelation, two more). But when we get to the battle in chapter 19, there is no contest. This is confirmed by Ezekiel 39:9. The Rider on the white horse simply captures the beast and false prophet and throws them into the lake of Fire. So what has been going on here is essentially the bluff which began with the anti-Christ spirit in the first Seal, and neither army stands a chance.

Rome will control her US image during the tribulation and deceive all whose names were not in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world: the Serpent's seed and the "kings of the East!" And all of Adam's race whose names not written in the Lamb's Book of Life (William Branham, An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 377; Revelation 13:8; 17:8).

Whose armies are these? People cannot imagine Rome ruling over the USA with ultimate power in a NWO, hence the call to remain watchful and alert in face of the natural might of the kings of the earth, who will give their power and strength to the beast for the coming NWO until the falling-out between Rome and the Jews who, in turning to Judaeo-Communism, will destroy Rome and the US (Romans 9:27; Revelation 17:16-18).

Insider, David Ben Gurion, Prime Minister of Israel, foresaw "Western and Eastern Europe becoming a federation of autonomous states having a Socialist and democratic regime. With the exception of the USSR as a federated Eurasian state, all other continents will become united in a world alliance . . ." (Look Magazine, January 16, 1962). Like Israel today, Russia will become a safe house or refuge for the Man slayer (Numbers 35).

Echoing the prophecies of Ezekiel 38-39 and Daniel 11:40-45, Brother Branham prophesied in 1933, "There's three isms" trying to take ahold of the world today: Fascism, Nazism, and Communism." And what'd I say? They would all wind up in Communism."

"Now, I just had you all to repeat it over: "Keep your eyes on Russia." You remember that? "Keep your eyes on Russia. . ." (The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 136:219).

"Now, we find out that the Angel poured out his vial upon the Euphrates river and dried it up, that the king of the North might come down. . . making way for the king of the North to come down, the kings" (Thy House, #61-0808).

Brethren who study the Message of William Branham understand who has controls Russia, "the king of the North," since they were invaded from the East Side of New York in 1917.

The terror of the Roman empire today is Communism. "Son of man, set your face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, and say, "Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal: and I will turn you back, and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you forth, and all your army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords: Persia, Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet: Gomer, and all his bands; the house of Togarmah of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with you" (Ezekiel 38:2-9).

Magog represents the Scythians, from whom after intermarriage with the Medes, came the Russians. Meschech is Moscow, Tubal is Tobolsk (or Siberia). "Gog" is their "chief" or principal man, the Czar or President of a union of several "lesser" princes, her Socialist Republics. It behooves us to take notice of the political situation in Russia.

Gomer and Togarmah are peoples who lived in the mountainous area southeast of the Black Sea and southwest of the Caspian Sea which is now central Turkey. This was the eastern extremity of the Roman Empire, and among the five toes of the left foot of the image of Nebuchadnezzar's dream which will hate and destroy the beast (Revelation 17:16; 18:17-18).

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." It is the Voice of the Lord Jesus Christ on the judgment seat in the heavenly temple declaring Revelation 16:1 has been fulfilled, and "the Seven Vials of the wrath of God have [all] been poured upon the earth".

At this point in time Israel's Seventh Trumpet has sounded and the Gentile dispensation has ended. This is the order: a Seal is broken and the Messenger or angel to the Age catches the Message—not yet fully revealed. He sounds the Gospel Trumpet and all whose lives become written epistles of Its Message are born-again—Hebrew or Gentile. A persecution falls upon natural Israel and a Church Age begins for the Gentiles. Then God pours out a Vial upon the nominal church to separate the foolish virgin from the false church and the cycle is repeated. But when the Seventh Vial is poured, out the days of man have ended and the great day of God Almighty begins with the resurrection of the sleeping Church, the manifestation and translation of the Sons of God, and the anointing of two prophets to Israel.

(Sinai and Palestine, by A. P. Stanley, p. 251-267 gives an interesting description of the geography and history of the plain of Megiddo (Esdraelon) which lay between Mount Carmel and Mount Tabor). eb426.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Once again we welcome Brother Israel Shamir whose writing expresses the love of Christ. He contributes two essays from his recent book, "Our Lady of Sorrow"; we have aligned both essays with Psychological and Group Defenses and Dissent Treated as Psychopathology, a paper by Dr. Robert John, and with Dr. Kevin MacDonald's book, The Culture of Critique.

God placed "enmity" between the natural and spiritual seed of the Serpent and of the first and the last Adam: "enmity" is hate. "Anti-hate" legislation has been forced upon the Empire of the City of London by Cain's hyper-ethnocentric group working under another name and in a different occupation, for Cain warned, "everyone who discovers our true identity will kill us" (Genesis 4:14).

In this Orwellian age of lawlessness "peace" means "war" and "love" means "hate," so the true objective of this legislation is not to foster love within the brotherhood of man, for only God and His children are "Love," and these chose to walk out from the Presence of the Lord and ordered the party political system to introduce multiculturalism. This would reproduce the original sin and create division. Then pretending to be the innocent victims of hate rather than predatory haters, they demanded "anti-hate" legislation to disempower and conquer native dissidents. This is a classic Hegelian dialectic and the title and content of Dr. John's paper says it all.

Brother Branham taught, "You've got to know your enemy, and you've got to know your Armor. Your Armor is the Word. Your enemy is something that'll reason against it . . . intellectual giants. . . listen . . . he will have you so far away from the truth, till you won't know where you're at. . . so deceiving" (Take on the whole Armor of God, #62-0701).

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

The Broken Cross

'We are grateful to Protestants for their loyalty to our wishes, although most of them are, in the sincerity of their faith, unaware of their loyalty to us. We are grateful to them for the wonderful help they are giving us in our fight against the stronghold of Christian civilization and in our preparations for the advent of our supremacy over the whole world.

'So far we have succeeded in overthrowing most of the thrones of Europe. The rest will follow in the near future. Russia has already worshipped our rule. France is under our thumb. England, in her dependence upon our finance, is under our heel; and in her Protestantism is our best hope for the destruction of the Catholic Church. Spain and Mexico are but toys in our hands. And many other countries, including the United States of America, have already fallen before our scheming.

'But the Catholic Church is still alive. We must destroy her without the least delay and without the slightest mercy. Most of the Press of the world is under our control. Let us intensify our activities. Let us spread the spirit of revolution in the minds of the people. . . Full story: freespace.virgin.net

War on Terror is Elite Mind Control

April 21, 2006 – It is more effective to manage society by mind control than by physical coercion. The events of 9/11 and the "war on terror" are primarily exercises in mass brainwashing.

Theory developed by German psychiatrist Kurt Lewin, director of the Tavistock Institute in the 1930's, explains our present predicament. Jim Keith cites him in his book "Mind Control, World Control" (1997).

"Lewin is credited with much of the original Tavistock research into mass brainwashing, applying the results of repeated trauma and torture [of individuals] in mind control to society at large."

"If terror can be induced on a widespread basis into a society," Lewin has stated, "then society reverts to a tabula rasa, a blank slate, a situation where control can easily be instituted from an external point."

"Put another way: By the creation of controlled chaos, the populace can be brought to the point where it willingly submits to greater control. Lewin maintained that society must be driven into a state equivalent to an 'early childhood situation.' He termed this societal chaos 'fluidity'" (p. 44).

Swedish Central Bank Dumps Dollar

April 22, 2006 – Thanks to a corrupt government and an insanely greedy Fed, America is fast approaching a full-scale economic crisis of epic proportions.

[F]undamentals turned sharply bearish for the dollar this week. On a day devoid of any US economic data, we were surprised to see a fresh wave of selling on news from Sweden [that its] central bank [has] cut their dollar reserves by 17 percent and increased their euro reserves by 13 percent.

Data from Switzerland also indicates that the central bank has reduced the share of dollars in its reserves and instead has increased its share of yen reserves. This comes on the heels of comments by Iceland on Wednesday about their possibility of abandoning the volatile Krona in favor of the more stable euro.

Any move against Iran now will send our economy into a tail-spin. Full story: wakeupfromyourslumber.blogspot.com

April 23, 2006 – From Russia, you might say, with love. This weekend, Alexei Kudrin, Russia's finance minister, dropped a bombshell in Washington.

The greenback's recent volatility and the yawning US trade deficit, "are definitely causing concern with regard to its reserve currency status," he said. "The international community can hardly be satisfied with this instability." Full story: telegraph.co.uk

US will go for other States after Iran and Iraq

Lahore, April 24, 2006– We have leaks from reliable sources that after Iraq and Iran, the US plans to go for Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, [Journalist Eric] Margolis said in an interview with IWT NEWS on Saturday. Margolis supported Iran's nuclear weapons programme, saying that it poses no threat to the world community. US President George W.

Colonization of Palestine Precludes Peace

March 9, 2006– For more than a quarter century, Israeli policy has been in conflict with that of the United States and the international community. Israel's occupation of Palestine has obstructed a comprehensive peace agreement in the Holy Land, regardless of whether Palestinians had no formalized government, one headed by Yasser Arafat or Mahmoud Abbas, or with Abbas as president and Hamas controlling the parliament and cabinet.

The unwavering US position since Dwight Eisenhower's administration has been that Israel's borders coincide with those established in 1949, and, since 1967, the universally adopted UN Resolution 242 has mandated Israel's withdrawal from the occupied territories. This policy was reconfirmed even by Israel in 1978 and 1993, and emphasized by all American presidents, including George W. Bush. As part of the Quartet, including Russia, the UN and the European Union, he has endorsed a "Road Map" for peace. But Israel has officially rejected its basic premises with patently unacceptable caveats and prerequisites.

With Israel's approval, The Carter Center has monitored all three Palestinian elections. Supervised by a blue-ribbon commission of college presidents and distinguished jurists, they have all been honest, fair and peaceful, with the results accepted by winners and losers. . .

A Dictatorship in No Time

In his book, EUSSR: Soviet Roots of European Integration, the former Soviet dissident, Vladimir Bukovsky chronicles a 1989 meeting between Gorbachev and a delegation of the Trilateral Commission. During the meeting, Valery Giscard d'Estaing said to Gorbachev, "Nowadays Western Europe is experiencing a perestroika, hanging its structures. It is difficult to say exactly when this will happen: 5, 10 or 20 years later. But a new modern federal state will emerge in Western Europe. That is where we are going, and the USSR should be prepared to communicate with a large single state of Western Europe:" Keep in mind, it was Giscard d'Estaing who authored the European Constitution 13 years later, in 2002-03.

The original idea, said Bukovsky in his Brussels speech, was for "convergency." The Soviet Union would "mellow" and become more social-democratic; Europe would become more social-democratic and socialist. Then the structures would fit together—converge. "This is why the structures of the European Union were initially built with the purpose of fitting into the Soviet structure," said Bukovsky. "And why they are so similar in function and in structure."

In a speech in Brussels on February 23 (published in the Brussels Journal, February 27, Bukovsky drew attention to the close parallels between organizations within the EU and those of the former USSR.

The European Parliament reminds him of the Supreme Soviet, he says, "because it was designed like it."

The European Commission looks like the Politburo: though its members differ in number, they are, like those in the Politburo, unelected and unaccountable to anyone.

The European Union, with its 80,000 pages of regulations, looks like Gosplan, "an organization which was planning everything in the economy, to the last nut and bolt, five years in advance." Even the type of corruption found within EU entities resembles that of the Soviets, "going from top to bottom rather than going from bottom to top."

The EU is only a milder version of the USSR, says Bukovsky. There's no Gulag, no KGB yet—but he's watching Europol. "That really worries me a lot because this organization will probably have powers bigger than those of the KGB. They will have diplomatic immunity. Can you imagine a KGB with diplomatic immunity? They will have to police us on 32 kinds of crimes—two of which are particularly worrying: one is called racism, another is called xenophobia" (ibid.) . . .

Note Bukovsky's impressions, given his unique perspective. Even as some in the United States are (misguidedly) touting the expansion of democracy in several Middle Eastern nations as representing the infancy of a new era of freedom, Bukovsky is watching the quiet revolution taking place within Europe and coming to an entirely different conclusion: "IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE LIVING IN A PERIOD OF RAPID, SYSTEMATIC AND VERY CONSISTENT DISMANTLEMENT OF DEMOCRACY" (emphasis ours throughout).

Bukovsky makes this alarming statement based on his skepticism toward several trends in European politics: enabling unelected ministers to introduce new laws without telling elected parliamentarians; curtailing freedom of the press; expanding governmental emergency powers; suspending civil liberties. "THIS CAN MAKE A DICTATORSHIP OUT OF YOUR COUNTRY IN NO TIME," he concluded.

This perspective is very different from how most people view the emergence of this united Europe. Generally it is seen as a champion of democracy, freedom and human rights. But that is a diabolical deception!

In the Brussels Journal interview, Bukovsky contested the idea that the integration European members are presently engaged in is voluntary. Denmark voted against the Maastricht Treaty and the euro. Ireland voted against the Nice Treaty. "The people have to vote in referendums until the people vote the way that is wanted. Then they have to stop voting," he said.

At the end of his speech, Bukovsky recommended the EU be stopped before it becomes a full-blown totalitarian entity. "Today it is still simple. If 1 million people march on Brussels today these guys will run away to the Bahamas. . . But I do not know what the situation will be tomorrow with a fully fledged Europol staffed by former Stasi or Securitate officers. Anything may happen. . ."

The EU's Soviet-style structure will not be run by atheistic communism, but a resurrection of the Holy Roman Empire. Full story: thetrumpet.com

Comment: There is direct evidence to suggest that the hidden powers have been planning for the eventual merger of the United States and the Soviet Union all along, but not until after a prolonged period of Cold War had accomplished their objectives. This evidence surfaced during the Reece Committee investigations into tax-exempt foundations during the 1950s. Norman Dodd, the director of research for the committee, had at one point during the investigation been invited to the headquarters of the Ford Foundation by its president. H. Rowan Gaither, who was a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

During this visit Gaither told Dodd: "All of us here at the policymaking level have had experience, either in O.S.S. (Office of Strategic Services) or the European Economic Administration, with directives from the White House. We operate under those directives here. Would you like to know what those directives are?"

Dodd responded that he would, after which Gaither replied: "The substance of them is that we shall use our grant-making power so to alter life in the United States that we can be comfortably merged with the Soviet Union."

Dodd, who was jolted by the frankness of the remarks, asked if Gaither would be willing to repeat his statement before the Reece Committee; to which the Ford Foundation president responded: "That we would not think of doing" (James J. Drummey, "The Internationalist," The New American, 12 March, 1991. p. 29 - 30; Daniel 2:40-45; Revelation 13:11-12; 17:11-13).

God is not Collectivist, He speaks to Individual Souls

Ezekiel 18:20, "The soul that sins shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father; neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself".

Ezekiel did not hold with the "chosen people" theory (II Thessalonians 2:10-12).

Revelation 3:22, "He who has an ear, let Him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches".

This is the admonition of God to each of the seven Church Ages. With one Voice the Spirit was speaking His unchanging will, but as there are three kinds of believers in every gathering, His Message would be heard by two groups of people. To the elect individual it brought Life and peace through faith. To the nominal church of unbelievers and make-believers, rebuke; and without repentance, condemnation and death.

Although His Message was broadcast to the entire group who claimed to be Christians it would only be received by elect individuals, for "Many are called, but few are chosen"  (Matthew 22:14).

Israel types the Church. When God called Israel out of Egypt they numbered perhaps two millions, but only an election entered the Promised Land. One in a million. "Many were called, but few were chosen." The unbelieving Israelites perished in the wilderness and they are lost (Psalm 95:10-11; John 6:49; Hebrews 3:9-19; 6:4-8; Jude 5).

So much for the "chosen people" myth: God's love is elective love. As Nisan 15 2006 has passed and we have grace for another year let us make our calling and election sure. God's promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were an inheritance for their children in the expectation they would raise a godly seed. This inheritance in respect of God's love for the fathers, who were obedient in faith, was conditional upon obedience in the children who would be "called" by hearing the Word of God in a sanctified home environment, not by genetic kinship. All men have been placed on the basis of free moral agency like Adam and Eve at the start. God's elect was "chosen" in Christ from the foundation of the world by His foreknowledge of their obedience in faith.

Israel rejected God's promise to Abraham through their unbelief at Kadesh-Barnea. For His own honour He delivered the nation to the Promised Land and defeated their enemies, but He brought them under the curse of the Law at Mount Sinai, and those unbelievers were blotted from the Book of Life.

In the second exodus God called His Church out of Israel and for the past two thousand years His Message has spoken to that Church. Why so?—in respect of the Church fathers whose calling was to "be instant in season and out of season in preaching the Gospel," thus raising a godly seed in every nation.

Unlike the nation of Israel, God's Family, Jesus Christ and His Church is not increased by sexual reproduction. Isaiah 53:8-12 said, "He shall see His seed," yet sexual reproduction has not produced one "chosen person" in six thousand years: not in Israel, and not in the church. God's choosing is by individual faith. By their faith Messiah raised the saints. Job 19:25-26, "I know my Redeemer lives, and He shall stand upon this earth at last: and after this body has decayed, in this body I shall see God." Messiah is God, and by faith He has raised a godly New Testament seed to eternal Life.

God dealt with Israel as a nation because they possessed His Word. He chose individuals by their faith in that Word as witnessed by the sign of circumcision given to Abraham and confirmed by Ezekiel 18, not by their parentage. The name of this Iraqi means "Father of Gentiles" born into God's family by the blood of Jesus Messiah, not the copulation of two earthly parents. Abraham is the father of faith, not carnal knowledge. He was born into a family of idol-worshipping pagans without faith. God honored his individual faith, not the fertility of his parents. Blood Israelites without faith will perish in their spiritual wilderness today as the Israelites who left Egypt without faith perished in the natural wilderness.

Romans 4:4-12, "Wages are not paid to a workman as an act of grace but by obligation; while to a person who does not work by law but whose faith rests on Him who declares the ungodly righteous, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David mentions the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness without works: blessed are those whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin."

"Is this blessing pronounced only to the circumcised, or also upon the uncircumcised? For faith alone was accounted to Abraham as righteousness without the Law. Then how was it accounted to him? Was it before or after he had been circumcised? It was not after, but before he was circumcised. He received circumcision as a sign or seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while he was uncircumcised. The purpose was to make him the father of all uncircumcised believers to whom righteousness is imputed, and likewise the father of circumcision who are not merely circumcised but also follow the example of the faith our father Abraham had before he was circumcised".

No man was "chosen" without faith, even the first and last Adam were given free moral agency that their righteousness might be of faith and not works. Faith comes by hearing the revealed Word of God for your day. Remember as the "squeeze" tightens on the Bride of Christ, you cannot serve God without faith. The "third pull" is the invisible substance of faith manifest in this three dimensional world: it is God doing the works.

Like Israel's patriarchs the Church fathers were righteous men, and as Israel increased, so confessions multiplied until today we find thousands of sects each working a different gospel, and like the Pharisees, Sadducees, Herodians, Zealots and Essenes in the camp of Israel, making the Word of God of no effect, and like Israel our elect is a "little flock".

God's promises and choosing are not inherited by one's birth into a Christian family any more than they are to one born into the bloodline of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. That would be works without faith. "One must be born of water and of the Spirit . . . for flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of heaven".

Habakkuk 2:4, "He whose soul is not exalted in self-righteousness is not upright, but the righteous shall live by His faith".

Jacob and Esau were born of godly parents in the righteous line, but without faith Esau had no respect to the birthright. Through miscegenation Esau's offspring are Cain's line of impersonators who rule the world today (Genesis 27:39-41; Malachi 1:1-5).

Psalm 20:7, "Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: (and unlike Israel's Patriarchs, some in birth by a Jewish mother): but we will remember the Name of the Lord our God".

As the miner works in gold-bearing country and not in sandstone or shale, the Lord in old times sought an election from among the mass of Word-bearing Israel. He now prospects for elect individuals within the circle that carries the Word for this hour.

Former professor of psychiatric education and polymath, Dr. Robert John, is a diplomatic historian and public educator through writing, lecturing and broadcasting, a member of the Society of Historians of American Foreign Relations, OAH, and an honorary life member of Yale Political Union. His paper, Psychological and Group Defenses and Dissent Treated as Psychopathology, presented to the International Council for Human Ecology and Ethnology, confirms the nature, intent and product of the original sin in the planned destruction of Adam's race, and its imitation through multiculturalism, "as it was in the days of Noah" (Genesis 6:1-4).

Dr. Kevin MacDonald, professor of Psychology at California State University, who wrote the trilogy, A People That Shall Dwell Alone (1994), Separation and Its Discontents (1998) and The Culture of Critique (1998, 2002), was "much-impressed with the theme of hyper-ethnocentrism in the writings of professor Israel Shahak of Israel's Hebrew University, most notably his co-authored Fundamentalism in Israel (Shahak and Mesvinsky, 1999). In their examination of current Jewish fundamentalists and their influence in Israel, Shahak and Mesvinsky argue that present-day fundamentalists attempt to recreate the life of Jewish communities before the Enlightenment (i.e. prior to about 1750). During this period most Jews believed in Cabbala, Jewish mysticism. Influential Jewish scholars like Gershom Scholem ignored the obvious racialist, exclusivist material in the Cabbala by using words like "men", "human beings", and "cosmic" to suggest the Cabbala has a universalist message. The actual text says salvation is only for Jews, while non-Jews have "Satanic souls" (p. 58).

The ethnocentrism apparent in such statements was not only the norm in traditional Jewish society, but remains a powerful current of contemporary Jewish fundamentalism, with important implications for Israeli politics. For example, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, describing the difference between Jews and non-Jews:

"We do not have a case of profound change in which a person is merely on a superior level. Rather we have a case of . . . a totally different species. . . . The body of a Jewish person is of a totally different quality from the body of [members] of all nations of the world . . . The difference of the inner quality [of the body] . . . is so great that the bodies would be considered as completely different species. This is the reason why the Talmud states that there is an halachic difference in attitude about the bodies of non-Jews [as opposed to the bodies of Jews] 'their bodies are in vain'. . . . An even greater difference exists in regard to the soul. Two contrary types of soul exist, a non-Jewish soul comes from three satanic spheres, while the Jewish soul stems from holiness. (In Shahak & Mezvinsky 1999, p. 59-60).

This claim of Jewish uniqueness echoes Holocaust activist Elie Wiesel's (1985, 153– Statement of the AJ Congress, Joint Hearings Before the Subcommittees of the Committees on the Judiciary, 82nd Congress, 1st Sess., on S. 716, H.R. 2379, and H.R. 2816. March 6-April 9, 1951, 391) claim that "everything about us is different." Jews are "ontologically" exceptional.

The Gush Emunim and other Jewish fundamentalist sects described by Shahak and Mezvinsky are thus part of a long mainstream Jewish tradition which considers Jews and non-Jews as completely different species, with Jews absolutely superior to non-Jews and subject to a radically different moral code. Moral universalism is thus antithetical to the Jewish tradition."

"Within Israel, these Jewish fundamentalist groups are not tiny fringe groups, mere relics of traditional Jewish culture. They are widely respected by the Israeli public and by many Jews in the Diaspora. They have a great deal of influence on the government, especially the Likud governments and the recent government of national unity headed by Ariel Sharon. The members of Gush Emunim constitute a significant percentage of the elite units of the Israeli army, and, as expected on the hypothesis that they are extremely ethnocentric, they are much more willing to treat the Palestinians in a savage and brutal manner than are other Israeli soldiers. All together, the religious parties make up about 25% of the Israeli electorate (Shahak & Mezvinsky 1999, 8)—a percentage that is sure to increase because of their high fertility and because intensified troubles with the Palestinians tend to make other Israelis more sympathetic to their cause. Given the fractionated state of Israeli politics and the increasing numbers of the religious groups, it is unlikely that future governments can be formed without their participation. Peace in the Middle East therefore appears unlikely absent the complete capitulation of the Palestinians."

"The point here is not so much about the fundamentalists in contemporary Israel but that traditional Jewish communities were intensely ethnocentric and collectivist—a major theme of all three of my books on Judaism. A thread throughout CofC is that Jewish intellectuals and political activists strongly identified as Jews and saw their work as furthering specific Jewish agendas. Their advocacy of intellectual and political causes, although often expressed in the language of moral universalism, was actually moral particularism in disguise.

Given that ethnocentrism continues to pervade all segments of the Jewish community, the advocacy of the de-ethnicization of Europeans—a common sentiment in the movements I discuss in Culture of Critique—is best seen as a strategic move against peoples regarded as historical enemies. . ." (Kevin MacDonald, Culture of Critique, p. xxxii– xxxiv).

Multiculturalism is a euphemistic misnomer for miscegenation and the replication of the original sin for which God destroyed the world in Noah's Flood. Its intent remains the destruction of Adam's race and usurpation of the kingdom of Messiah as Jesus foretold in Matthew 24:37. Whereas a physical remnant was preserved in the flood, all life on earth will be destroyed in the soon-coming nuclear fire (II Peter 3:5-7).

The Abstract to Dr. John's paper states:

"Evolutionary systems of defense and survival strategies may be dismissed and seemingly discredited by associating them with pathology, by stigmatization. It becomes easier to be dismissive and suppressive without reasoned argument. Ethnocentrism, preference for one's own ethnicity, nationality, race, is mis-diagnosed and called xenophobia, a psychological disorder, but a punishable offence in the European Community. Group strategies are very powerful in competition with individual strategies within a society, as has been the case with Judaism. Although a powerful collectivist oligarchy is acting strongly to suppress it, Free Inquiry is the Western way to improving quality of life with Liberty".

Although he is unconscious of his discovery, Dr. John has uncovered the original sin. His paper is brief, please read it before you continue reading the following essay:

The Origin of Modern Jews

By Israel Shamir

Many modern scholars reject the idea of biological continuity between the Jews of the Talmud and the Jews of our days. Arthur Koestler in The Thirteenth Tribe, using the theory of Prof. Poliak, came to the conclusion that European Jews are descendents of Khazars. Prof. Paul Wexler of Tel Aviv University corrected his theory in his groundbreaking book, Ashkenazi Jews, and demonstrated that we are mainly descendants of various Slav and Turkish tribes, converted into Judaism a thousand years ago. He based his findings on study of Yiddish, the Jewish language of Eastern Europe.

Another concept of modern Jewry's genesis was offered by a bright young Jewish man from Warsaw, Abram Leon, who died in 1944 in Auschwitz. Just before his capture by the Gestapo, this ex-Zionist-turned-Trotskyite completed his only book, the short and brilliant The Jewish Question: A Marxist Interpretation. This book defines Jews as a 'people-class', as a social strata with some quasi-national qualities. According to Leon, medieval Jewry was a motley collection of outlaws who wished to deal with usury and similar occupations.

A descendent of Jews who would rather work the land would leave Jewry and baptize. A Christian who desired to become a usurer or tax farmer would become a Jew, wrote Leon. He quotes in his book some documented examples of Polish nobles who decided to become Jews in order to engage in banking. Poor Jews gave up their Jewishness, as the Jews of Sicily; rich and proper Jews who wished to join the civil society of their lands, embraced Christianity and were ennobled. The remainder were those who chose anti-social occupations: usury, smuggling, sales of alcohol and drugs, the slave trade and the white slave trade. In other words, it was a semi-criminal group, akin to the Guild of Thieves and to Gypsies—another 'people-class' of the Middle Ages.

In G. K. Chesterton's short story, The Purple Wig, there is a Duke of Exmoor, who hides his ear under an unusual purple wig. Folks tell of the deformed ear he inherited from his accursed ancestors, like a sign of the devil, and they pity him. Whoever sees the horrible ear, will certainly lose his mind, goes the legend. Only the modest Catholic priest, Fr. Brown, was not afraid. He took the wig off the Duke, and everybody saw his ordinary ears. The Duke turned out to be a rich Jewish financier, a Mark Rich or Conrad Black of his days, who bought the title of Exmoor complete with the legend of the Curse.

Whether you accept the reading of Leon or Koestler, of Boaz Evron or Paul Wexler, there is no "guilt of deicide," no "racial qualities," no "predestination." But also, there is no great antiquity, so pleasing to our vanity, no basis for the claim to the land of Palestine. The position of Leon became the accepted line of American Trotskyite groups.

However, it is not the only possible reading of history. Lev Gumilev denied the theory of the mass conversion of the Khazars. This expert on the Khazars thought that the Jews ruled in Khazaria, like their brethren ruled in post-Revolutionary Russia and in the modern US, over non-converted Gentiles. Then there were no great masses of converts.

Perhaps modern science will be able to answer this question. The genetic labs of Tel Aviv University try to prove that the Jews are of one stock. Meanwhile they publish a few inconclusive results, which do not exclude some Mediterranean origin of modern Jews. Apparently, some Jews are of Palestinian origin, while some are descendents of converts. The similarity of some Jewish genes and that of Palestinians could become a bridge for racially minded people into the happy future of integration. But this integration needs a religious component in order to transform Jewish immigrants in Palestine into another Palestinian tribe. How can it be done?

Messiah Now!

By Israel Shamir

The rise of anti-Christian Jewry is a symptom of the despotic world of right-wing fantasies. Christ stands for the great idea of the fellowship of Man, of our commonality, of us being joined in spirit. Noam Chomsky expressed it in this way: "the US carries war against the Catholic church, as the church chose to stand by the poor and oppressed people in Latin America". Looking deeper we understand that this choice was not a question of chance, but it was caused by the communal idea of Christ. It is difficult to rob and skin people you share communion with.

The spirit of commonality found a response to the removal of Christ, by bringing forth Communism, a new messianic faith, a new incarnation of Christianity. The Left's purpose was a daring attempt to regain the Kingdom of Heaven upon Earth, to bring Christ back. It was not only about food and housing, but it was the great human desire for a single communion, for a uniting spirit, that moved Communists. The prominence of Jews within the Left made the Jewish rejection of Christ its vulnerable spot and caused a severe distortion in the history and ideology of the Left. The Russian Revolution would have passed without bloody excesses if the revolutionaries had not fought church and faith. This fight broke the spine of Russian history, it created a schism between the Russian people and Communist ideas; it was unnecessary and hurtful. Socialist revolution is not a picnic, but in China and Vietnam it passed with much less bloodshed, as there were no elements dedicated to demolishing faith.

The Jewish revolutionaries of Russia gave up their dead Jewish faith and induced the Russians in return to give up their living one. It was not a fair deal: Jews retained their particularity, while churchless Russians were de-ethnicised. There were the attempts of Obnovlentsy, a Russian church movement, to reconcile Christ and communism. On the level of art, it was expressed by Alexander Blok in his glorious poem, The Twelve, this crown of the revolutionary subconscious. Through darkness and snowstorm, Block's Twelve Russian revolutionary soldiers, unruly and godless, follow the unseen figure of Jesus Christ. If this move had been met by the communists, if Trotsky and Zinoviev, Kaganovitch and Sverdlov had dared to enter the communion of the Russian church, the messianic communist upheaval would have swept Russia and we would live today in a different world. They did not dare, and Communism failed.

Similar processes took place in the West. Though the Jewish revolutionaries were sincere men and women, they failed to rid themselves of the supremacy tradition, and their achievements were used to the full extent by their less scrupulous brethren. The latter saw in the Left movement just a means of group advancement, and eventually turned their back on socialism when it fulfilled its role and removed the old elites. That is why the Jews en masse deserted the Left after the 1968 revolution, and the cause of the Left has failed.

In a similar way, Zionism failed, as it was another Jewish attempt to bring the Messiah forth. The father of Zionism, Theodor Herzl, tried to save Israel by taking them to Palestine, but a few years before that, he dreamed of leading his people into the faith of the Messiah with the bells a-tolling and folks calling, Halleluiah. But then he saw the hardness of their hearts and preferred an easy way of conquering Palestine, getting rid of the native population, terrorising the Middle East and building a Jewish state. He thought it was easier than to deliver the Jews. It was easier, but quite useless: the lofty ideals of messianic Zionism could not be achieved without recognising the Messiah.

Why, actually? Consider a small band of chosen soldiers sent to deliver a secret message to a remote city. They have to cross unknown and hostile territories, encounter unexpected dangers and deliver the secret. It stands to reason that they would be instructed to trust nothing and nobody, to remain aloof, to use and misuse strangers in order to fulfill their all-important mission. It is a long way, and the soldiers get used to the idea. The right to use and misuse is quite a convenient right, and they manage not too badly. By the time they get to their goal, they remain a close-knit group, utterly hostile to their surroundings, devoted to keeping their message secret, and they are unable to deliver it. Eventually the message gets to the city by other means, it becomes a part of daily life for everybody, but this group of old soldiers still feels besieged in hostile territory, still preserves its message, which has been known to the world for a long time. It is time to tell them: you were fine, you did your best, and you delivered the message, now you are free men in the city of the free. Disband, mix freely, and enjoy the world saved thanks to your message.

Those who refuse to join mankind should be treated as Japanese soldiers in the jungle of New Guinea still fighting and hiding fifty years after the war was over—with strict compassion and psychological help. From this point of view, the present philosemitic wave can provide a good support to these misled persons.

Zionism became poison without the Messiah: not in vain did the Jewish religious scriptures ("the instructions to the soldiers") forbid the gathering of the Jews in the Holy Land before the days of the Messiah. The "instructors" knew what we have forgotten: such a gathering, unless by means of accepting the Messiah, would be used by the Antichrist and would poison the earth.

Indeed, we came into this sweet Land and devoured it like locusts. We uprooted olive trees. We caused the springs to dry up and trees to wither. We expelled and imprisoned its people. We wasted the limpid waters of the underground caverns. We sliced strategic roads through the mountain meadows. Now we are locking ourselves in a high-rise ghetto surrounded by the double ring of barbed wire and endless hostility. Inevitably we re-create the way of life of our much-hated ancestors in a Polish schtetl. One cannot escape oneself. We carry Exile in our hearts and that is why we create Exile.

Why would the Messiah change Zionism into a marvellous thing? In the days of the Messiah, all restrictions will be lifted, teaches the Talmud. Commandments and prohibitions will be cancelled. By accepting the Messiah, the Jews become free from the tenets of the Law, and join mankind. This was known to Sabbatai Zevi, the 17th century Messiah: in Jerusalem, he blessed the Lord Who releases from Prohibitions, over prohibited food. (He went a long way, became a Muslim while keeping a crypto-Jewish identity, but did not dare to do the full Monty.) It was known to Rabbi Nachman of Bratzlav, a 19th century Messiah, who "fulfilled the Law', much like Jesus, in the course of one night spent in the Holy Land, and became free from prohibitions and commandments. It was hinted at by Nachmanides, saying that a touch of the Holy Land is more important than the prohibitions and commandments.

It is felt by the Zionist settlers, and Rabbi Ariel, one of the more radical settler Rabbis lamented, "We believed that by encountering the Holy Land, Jewish hearts will be united with the heart of the land. But for the majority of Jews our settlements failed to restore that sacred linkage". Rabbi Ariel did not understand why the scriptures connected the miracle of `sacred linkage' with the miracle of the Messiah. That is why he did not understand the reason for the failure. There is no way around it: the only way leads via accepting the faith of Palestine, and via total integration with the main mass of the descendents of the holy people of Israel, the Palestinians.

Mystics would say that those who can accept the Messiah and join the Palestinians, are the true sons of Israel coming back after a long exile; while those that fail to accept their Palestinian brothers are descendents of Leon's profit seekers attracted by the privileges of the chosen people. That is why Israeli Jews' turn to the Messiah and to their Palestinian brothers, an acceptance of one communion, would separate grain from waste, and complete the redemption.

A Jewish joke tells of an American Jew who complained to God: "I have sent my son to Jerusalem, and he became a Christian!"—"It happened to me as well", replied God. This joke still can become true, as the `Jews' of Israel are looking for their spiritual meaning. They can't find it without the Messiah.

The long history of the Jews is a proof of unavoidability: the Jews had become rich and powerful, and had got the Holy Land, but instead of reuniting with it, only ruined it. A folk tale tells of a thief who was caught stealing cucumbers. The judge offered him a choice of three punishments: to experience a painful intimacy with the cucumbers, to be flogged, or to pay triple. The thief chose the first punishment, but by the third cucumber regretted it and asked to be flogged instead. By the twentieth lash he regretted it as well, and agreed to pay triple. Thus, for his stubbornness he got all three punishments instead of one, and was forced to do the thing he tried to avoid, namely, to pay for the cucumbers. Such a thing happened to us Jews: despite all the trouble we went through, we still have to do the thing we did not want to do in the beginning.

Now for Jews the denial of Christ has had the same dire consequences as for others, namely it arrested their spiritual development. There were hundreds of minor Jewish poets and writers, but none of them reached spiritual or creative heights. Wealthy Jewish men and organizations spent huge sums on promoting their meagre achievements, and some became widely known and read, but none could be described as "a great artist". Many Jews oversee the arts, support artists, own galleries, and write art reviews, and it creates the illusion of artistic involvement and of an "immense Jewish contribution". But in fact, the position of Jews in the arts is similar to that of eunuchs in the seraglio: much activity but little result.

It was well expressed by a brilliant thinker of the Viennese fin-de-siecle, Otto Weininger. A man of Jewish origin, he was a harsh critic of Jewishness and committed suicide at 22, leaving behind his compelling, if dated, bestseller, Sex and Character. He wrote: "The Jew rejects the transcendent; he wishes to make the world as ordinary and insipid as possible. The Jew prefers such understanding of human history that eliminates Spirit from it. The Jew is unable to reach religious or spiritual ecstasy". These qualities are necessary for a poet or painter of genius, and as they are absent, Jewish art remains imitative at best.

It is not a question of race or inherited abilities. There were brilliant poets of Jewish origin—Brodsky, Pasternak, Mandelstam, Tuwim, Heine—but all of them accepted Christ. The Nobel laureate S. Y. Agnon also wrote a short story full of love for Christ, and Rabbis demanded that this story be destroyed. In the Middle Ages, the only important spiritual figures of Jewish origin were those who rejected Judaism and accepted Christ, like St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of God.

The second tier is formed by those who did not quite make it; they rejected Jewishness but did not find Christ. Isaac Deutscher calls them "non-Jewish Jews", those who "transcended Judaism, as they found Jewry too narrow, too archaic, and too constricting": Spinoza, Trotsky, Freud.

This lack of real Jewish creativity is based in the Jewish tradition, which encouraged learning and discouraged originality. On a deeper level, Judaism proclaimed the principle of Divine Non-interference, which is the denial of Spirit. The Talmud contains an archetypical story of an argument between an inspired man, Rabbi Eliezer b. Horlcenos the Great, known as the author of Pirkei Rabbi Eliezer, and the collegium of Rabbis. R. Eliezer asked God for a sign to prove he is right: "if my interpretation is right, let the walls of the House of study prove it," and the walls began to cave in. "The walls have nothing to do with it," the Rabbis replied "Let God be my witness," he said, and the Divine Voice witnessed that Rabbi Eliezer was right. But the Rabbis said: "the keys are given to us, and the Torah is with us, not in Heaven". They rejected God's mercy and involvement, closed the doors and remained in this world, supplanting the Lord Most High with the Prince of this World. Such rejection of Divine intervention is good for study, but deadly for Spirit. This dispute was followed by two thousand barren years in Jewish spiritual life.

The spiritual reason for this bareness was well expressed by Rabbi Isaac Mayer Wise, a champion of liberal Reform Judaism and "the most active and renowned rabbi in the United States" in the nineteenth century. His words were engraved on a memorial tablet in the Memorial Hall of Temple Emanu-El, the great synagogue of Reform Judaism in New York City: "American Judaism. A religion without mystics or miracles. Rational and self-evident, eminently human, universal, liberal and progressive. In perfect harmony with modern science, criticism, and philosophy, and in full sympathy with universal liberty, justice and charity." But a rational religion without mystics or miracles is not a faith in God, as it slams the doors of Creation in the face of Creator. In other words, it is worship of the Prince of this World.

There are two ways of solving the ideological confrontation in Palestine from the theological point of view. One of them, preferred by liberal forces, leads through the separation of Synagogue and State, the creation of a secular state and a "normal" Western development. This would be possible in a separate Jewish state, if it were created on a lone island in the ocean, or less likely, if the Jewish settlers in 1948 had stayed on the seaboard of Palestine. But as they annexed Jerusalem and brought in masses of semi-religious Jews from North Africa, this possibility became non-existent.

There is a second, incredible but more plausible solution: by going through the darkest levels of the Jewish subconscious, to arrive into the Messianic age. It is eagerly expected by thousands of Jews. This expectation is so strong that Messiahs galore appear, the latest being the late Lubawitscher Rebbe. His portraits bearing the legend "Messiah" cover the walls of Israeli homes. These Messianic movements are xenophobic and violent, supremacist and destructive. They are also not sufficiently antinomistic. As opposed to the Messiahs of old, the current Messiahs do not promise release from restrictions and commandments. This could be changed by embracing Jesus as the Messiah. There is no need for a new Messiah appearing on a white donkey. There is no need for a man to deliver us, as it was done by God Himself. It is enough to say, the Messiah is God, God is the Messiah, and we live in the days of the Messiah.

Then the restrictions will be gone, and nothing would stop the Jews from joining the Palestinians, or indeed any other nation. The long mission of Jews will be over.

A finite number of souls are predestinated to the Kingdom. Each individual foreknown by our omniscient God: there will not be one more or one less. Soon the last Gentile will be born into the Kingdom by this Message on which we stand, delivered somewhere by someone. There is no other way. Then God will return to Israel through the ministry of two Hebrew prophets who are Israelites. Three and a half days after their martyrdom their Message will bring the whole nation of Israel to new birth, all 144,000 of them.

Galatians 3:16, "The promises were made to Abraham and his Seed singular. He said not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, and to Your Seed, which is Christ."

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are so pleased you could join us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word.

Thank you for your prayers, emails and words of encouragement prior to the final hearing of the case brought against us by the Executive Council of Australian Jewry. Once again our evidence was unseen but I spoke the truth and did not shun to declare the full counsel of God as expressed in the unread attachments to our affidavits, by Scripture, historic fact, Encyclopaedia Britannica, Jewish encyclopedias, the Babylonian Talmud and other authorities (Ephesians 6:13). Please continue to uphold this matter in prayer as the Judge does not expect to write his decision for another three months. I believe the real purpose of this case has nothing to do with our Church and that we were chosen as a victim with the objective of establishing additional "case law" whereby these people can further elevate their privileged status above the Gentile citizens of this country. And bear in mind "case law" determined in one colony of "the City" can be applied within other jurisdictions, and those who would rule the world openly are "harmonizing" laws worldwide, so an unfavorable decision in this matter will impose itself upon us all regardless of our country of residence.

If we remain faithful I believe that decision will be made in favor of our stand upon truth before the misrepresentation of facts by those who have persecuted us for twelve years.

God does not respect the appearance one presents by his wealth or property, rank or low condition. God judges how He should treat a man by discerning the thoughts and intents of his heart. Those who know not God, "having men's persons in admiration because of advantage," are men-pleasers, whose Absolute is expedience not truth. Our dilemma is exacerbated by the world's apostate condition as it crucifies to itself the Son of God afresh, and in rejecting the Absolute shows that the "squeeze" is not far from each of us.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Please confirm all things personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

Rock Fin grows in Mount St. Helens' Crater

Seattle, May 5, 2006– Volcano watchers who turned out for the reopening of the Johnston Ridge Observatory saw a spectacular view of a hulking slab of rock that's rapidly growing in Mount St. Helens' crater. It's jutting up from one of seven lobes of fresh volcanic rock that have been pushing their way through the surface of the crater since October 2004. The fin-shaped mass is about 300 feet tall and growing 4 feet to 5 feet a day, said Dan Dzurisin, a geologist at the US Geological Survey . . . Full story: news.yahoo.com

Cleric says Christians 'adopted Satan as God'

Jerusalem, May 9, 2006– Christians who support Israel are distorting their true faith, have adapted Satan as god and comprise the greatest danger to world peace, according to a senior Palestinian Authority cleric.

The cleric, whose article on Christianity and Israel is posted on an official PA government website, also accuses Zionist Christians of persecuting Palestinians and directing the war in Iraq, and he calls for pro-Israeli Christian denominations to be expelled from the "world church."

"Very few people know the truth about this [Christian Zionist] movement, which unconditionally supports the Zionist enemy and unconditionally opposes Islam and the Muslims," writes Hamed Al-Tamimi, director of inter-religious dialogue for the PA's Judicial Council. . . Christian Zionists are a group who adopted Satan as god who drives their crazy nature. They have praised depravity and cursed virtue, they have turned the moral scale upside down and have reached [a point] in which forgery, deception and lying have turned into descriptions of world policy, which is led by the Zionism on both its branches—the Jewish and the Christian."

Israeli Anti-Semitic Cartoon Contest

Jewish Correspondent Gilad Atzmon writes: It is crucial to stress the following necessary criticism rather clearly, for in most of the cartoons, the Orthodox Jew, the one with the caftan and the beard, serves as a stereotype of the Jewish protagonist of Zionist crimes. As bizarre as it may sound, Orthodox Jews have very little to do with the crime they are associated with: the Holocaust industry, the Zionist sin which oppresses Palestinians, and American lobbying for Israel. If anything, the converse is true. It is a Jewish Orthodox sect, namely Neturei Karta, that collectively supports the Palestinians and fiercely fights Zionism. The secular Jewish tendency to stereotype the Orthodox Jew may expose two fundamental psychological elements within the collective Jewish secular psyche. . .

Rather than looking in the mirror and engaging in self-reflection, the secular Jew pins the current crimes of Israel and Jewish lobbies on a backward-looking and unattractive man with a big nose and a big black skullcap. As I mentioned above, this is a misleading, manipulative tactic. The crimes of the Jewish state, and its supportive Jewish lobbies, are committed by some handsome Sabras and ordinary looking human beings; people who look more like Mr. Broder than like an Orthodox Rabbi. The Orthodox Jews have no share in this crime, at least not collectively. . . Full story: gilad.co.uk boomka.org

Asia races to find Crops to replace Imported Oil

May 1, 2006– All across Asia, governments are searching for crops that can help them offset a dependence on imported oil that can only skyrocket as their economies soar. . .

Most experts also believe that, using current technologies, there isn't enough land to make a serious dent in oil consumption. Some scientists say production will consume more conventional energy than it will save, and environmentalists came out this month against plans by Indonesia to convert millions of acres of rain forest on the island of Borneo into palm oil plantations.

Georgia Tech Professor Arthur Ragauskas, who co-authored a study of biofuels published in Science magazine, sees other potential pitfalls. "One criticism of biofuels is that if you want to go from 2 percent to 20 percent, you would have to direct so much of that agriculture from food to fuel that there would be real competition between the two," he told The Associated Press in a phone interview.

"Even worse, if we have a famine in part of the world, we would have to make a decision as a society between food or fuel" . . . Full story: msnbc.msn.com truthout.org

Osama connected to 9/11? Not according to the F.B.I.

If you take a minute to visit the F.B.I. website and check out their Most Wanted list, you will run across a familiar face; Osama bin Laden. Of course we know that Osama is wanted by the F.B.I. but did you know he is NOT wanted in connection to the events of September 11th 2001?

As of April 28, 2006, the F.B.I. website listing for Osama notes that it was last updated in November, 2001, after the events of September 11th 2001. [But] . . . makes no mention of the events of September 11th. Full story: tvnewslies.org

Shanghai Cooperation Organisation

April 18, 2006– Shanghai Cooperation Organisation announced that India, Pakistan, Iran and Mongolia would be accepted as full members. The SCO, said to be interested only in promoting mutual security and economic well being, is, nevertheless, the political horse pulling the cart of military cooperation between China and Russia. With full membership being accorded to the above countries, Russia will have completed something that the czars and Leonid Brezhnev only dreamt of, the creation of an unbroken link from the Arctic in the north to the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean in the south. An Iranian spokesman spoke of creating an Iranian-Russian gas and oil arc. Full story: sandersresearch.com

Iran: Euro to replace Dollar as Oil Currency

May 16, 2006– In July Iran will ditch the dollar in favour of the euro as the currency in which it will accept payments for its oil and natural gas exports, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad announced Friday.

The switch, first mooted months ago, was expected but Ahmadinejad's decision comes just as Washington is stepping up pressure on other United Nations Security Council members to act against Tehran for flouting agreements (sic) taken with the UN's nuclear watchdog . . .

Some observers believe the Iranian move could deal a severe blow to the American currency as many central banks from oil importing nations could choose to stock up their currency reserves with euros rather than dollars. Full story: middleeastforex.com

Pressed by US, European Banks limit Iran Deals

Checkpoint Witnesses

Machsom Watch, founded in 2001 by three seasoned activists, consists of some 400 ordinary Israeli women who take turns standing at Israeli-controlled checkpoints, watching for human rights violations and harassment of Palestinian civilians by Israeli soldiers.

Some simply observe and report; others attempt to talk with soldiers or intervene on the part of Palestinians. Each "patrol" produces a report of their shift's events, which is then put up on their website. Most checkpoints the women monitor are inside the West Bank, rather than on border points between Israel and the Palestinian territories. . . Full story: truthout.org

When the Son of Man came, did He find Faith on Earth?

Looking forward to the twentieth century William Booth the founder of the Salvation Army said this before his death:

"The chief danger of the twentieth century will be:
Religion without the Holy Spirit:
Christianity without Christ:
Forgiveness without repentance:
Salvation without regeneration:
Politics without God:
Heaven without hell".

Brother Booth was a student of Revelation 3:17-20, Luke 17:28-37 and 18:1-8. When the Son of man came He found the faith in only one man. He was the angel to the Seventh Church Age through whom God "restored the apostolic faith" and "finished the mystery of God spoken by the mouth of all of His holy prophets since the world began" (Malachi 4:5-6; Acts 3:21; Revelation 10:7).

Brother Branham was the "angel" of Revelation 1:1-3; the one man to whom God revealed the mystery of the Seven Seals. It was through him Jesus Christ communicated the Book of Revelation to John the Divine when he was caught up in the Spirit into the Lord's Day. In the flesh John was imprisoned on the island of Patmos, but in the Spirit he was already in the Lord's Day, which will commence with the Seventh Trumpet about eleven months into our future. Looking back to man's day in a series of visions over two years John saw and heard Brother Branham ministering in the United States in real time—1963-1965. From the revelation of the Seven Seals to the death of this great Prophet, Christ revealed the mystery of God to His Bride.

Forty-three years have passed since the close of the Laodicean Church Age, and it is now forty-one years since Brother Branham was taken Home to be with the Lord. Can the Gentile dispensation last another full year?

The wise and the foolish virgin each heard the "Shout" of the Prophet's Message but not until the 1970s did the wise begin to hear the still small "Voice of the Archangel" placing the Message from Genesis to Revelation. Twelve years after her awakening by the "midnight cry" the wise virgin became accountable to the Message that had called her out of Babylon (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 18:4).

Divine inspiration terminated the "world systems" for the Bride in 1977 as the revelation of the 'parousia' Coming of the Son of man transformed the "letter" of the Message into written epistles of the Spirit in the Bride. Although the Message believers had separated from mainstream denominations, even today many still regard themselves as Pentecostals not understanding that the Laodicean Church Age ended in 1963 and that we live in the holy convocation or fiftieth day of the Pentecostal feast. The "Voice of the Archangel" brought a further separation but most believers remain unwise.

Every age had its wise and foolish virgin, even under the Old Testament there were elect and "saved." The foolish virgins are with us today, for in every true Church there is a minority of elect believers, non-elect make-believers and lost un-believers.

In my experience most people within the circle of the Message believe their assembly is the Bride of Christ, and we minister a positive Message from the pulpit as if they are all saints. Young people especially believe they are wise virgin and that their denominational cousins are foolish virgin. But relationship with God is determined by faith in the individual, the faith of Message-believing parents is not accounted to the child (Ezekiel 18:20).

God is the Father of Message-believing parents who are His elect; however He is not the Grandfather of their children. This was Israel's mistake. The Hebrew people believed they were united with God through a sexual birth in the lineage of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and presumed Him to be a dotard Grandfather. But even within that lineage God was no respecter of persons and regards faith alone, "For they are not all Israel who are of Israel" (Romans 9:6).

Jesus called those once Protestant denominations Rome's harlot daughters and not virgins to the Word. They already have the mark of the beast and know it not. Many within the circle of this Message do not have a clear revelation of the true oneness of the godhead. These will have to surrender their lives in order to maintain their names in the Book of Life and salvation.

In these closing hours the Bride needs to be constantly trimming her lamp as the Message unfolds. Daniel said the wise will know their God, but the foolish will not know. Sincere! But "because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. God will allow them to believe lies and be damned" (II Thessalonians 2:10-12).

I have just spent a day in court where the judge asks people to swear an oath on the Holy Bible to tell the truth, but neither he nor any one present knew or believed what the Bible says, let alone what it means. They had a different view of reality and I suspect they thought "Scotty had been beamed down" through a time warp from the nineteenth century. What I said meant nothing to them, and for a second time my evidence was not allowed to be presented. Their agenda may have been to administer law or to win by "whatever smarts it takes." I simply presented truth, exposed lies, and by God's grace I anticipate justice.

The trials of a Christian are for a purpose. Trials bring out one's true character. Poor Job. One cannot press a button or turn a hot or cold character tap. Character is a victory, not a gift. Our Brothers and Sisters are interred as refugees of the enemy of God and man working under another name and in a different occupation such as the UN and NGOs to facilitate "the city" in its grab for the resources of their homelands.

Desensitized sinners entertained by Hollywood-style TV newscasts reporting the plight of others are blind to the reality that their own nation and lifestyle has been stolen as they slumbered. The destroyers now hold the levers of power in our countries. Silently they stole the value of our money, swapping worthless tickets for our hard assets as in an earlier day baubles, bangles and bright shiny beads were traded for Indian land. Like Germany after the Treaty of Versailles we hold debts that cannot be repudiated under the international laws they wrote.

Because you are in the circle of the Message does not mean you are born-again, or even "saved." Be vigilant, stay alert.

I Peter 4:12-19, "Do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that is coming upon you to try you, for this is nothing strange or unusual. Instead, be joyful that you are partners, sharing to some degree the sufferings of Christ in order that you will have the wonderful joy of sharing His glory when it is displayed."

"If you are defamed for the Name of Christ, you are blessed because the Spirit of glory, yes, the Spirit of God is resting on you. On their part He is evil spoken of, but on your part He is glorified. Of course none of you should suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a busybody in other's affairs. But if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed; but praise God because you bear that Name. For the time has come for judgment to begin with God's household: and if it starts with us, what will be the destiny of those who do not obey the gospel of God? And if the righteous are barely saved, what chance have the pious and sinful?"

"Therefore, if you are suffering according to God's will, keep on doing what is right and trust your soul to God, the faithful Creator, for He will never fail you".

We must not bind our senses to material possessions and earthly ambitions but surrender to the living Word of this hour. This is not to suggest you should forsake or dispose of your possessions but that you could accept their loss with contentment. Now is the hour to discipline ourselves to place our stock in the heavenly treasures of God's promises, for when Israel's Seventh Trumpet sounds, we will have only the "third pull" of His Word to furnish all of our necessities.

Some of our Brethren are experiencing terrible hardship through no fault of their own; others are contending for the faith on the Devil's territory. To those I say with Peter, be joyful and account it an honor God has considered you worthy to share in the sufferings of Christ.

Hebrews 12:3-7, "Compare your experience with that of Jesus, who was willing to stand such hostility from sinners against Himself so that you may not become weary and despondent. In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood, and you have been forgetful of the appeal that speaks to you as sons: 'My son, do not think lightly of the Lord's discipline, neither become discouraged under His reproof; for the Lord disciplines the person He loves, and punishes every son He receives.' You must endure for the sake of correction: God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom the father does not discipline"?

Brother Branham said, "Love is corrective. Always"! These trials are to make you strong in the character of the Lord so you will be able to overcome in His might in the time of the "squeeze" and made fit to rule in the Kingdom.

When God delivered Israel from Egypt He led them by the hard way to prepare them to overcome. God dealt with Israel as a nation. With the exception of Joshua and Caleb every adult perished in the wilderness, but the nation entered the Promised Land. Now God is dealing with us as individuals to instill character that is fit to rule the nation of Israel throughout eternity.

Rejoice saint of God, and continue in righteous well-doing with the Token on display. The hard times of God's discipline are a blessing that will become apparent after the Trumpet of the Lord sounds. Meanwhile, be steadfast in the faith, knowing that your trials betoken you as His placed sons.

Speaking of the Tribulation of Daniel's Seventieth Week where the Stone cut out of the mountain without hands will smite the world system founded upon lies, Isaiah 28 reveals why the Establishment cannot repent and call upon the Lord, for lies are its refuge and falsehood its hiding place. The United States squandered her last opportunity for national repentance in the jubilee of the 1906 Azusa Street Revival. In 1906 the clock of history began the countdown to Armageddon with the pouring out of the Sixth Vial to distinguish the foolish virgin from the unbelievers of the Philadelphian Church Age. The First Woe of World War I followed, initiating earth's birth pains for renewal.

With the opening of the Seven Seals in 1963 the time of Christ's tarrying in mediation for His PART-Word Bride and the Laodicean Church Age ended. Redemption was over. It was time for Him to reveal His secrets by the voice of the seventh angel who conducted John throughout the Book of Revelation (Revelation 10:6-7). We live in that space of time in which His Bride dresses herself in the beauty of His revealed Self (Revelation 8:1; 19:7-9). When Israel's Seventh Trump sounds the alarm for Israel's elect to gather for the revelation of the Feast of the Trumpets at the end of the Gentile dispensation, this will signal our Jubilee, and the clock of history will tick just seven more years.

The once Christian West has turned its back on the Lord and the churches have put Him out; they no longer have the Absolute, and "as it was in the days of Noah," every man does whatsoever is right in his own eyes. That is the spirit of Laodicea, or people's rights—with no responsibility. This is communism, one of three unclean spirits gathering the world to Armageddon (Revelation 19:12-16).

In preparing for this week's hearing in the Federal Court we gathered declassified material from government archives in the USA, Australia, Britain and Finland. This vindicated Henry Ford's book, The International Jews: the World's Foremost Problem, and also his famous saying, "History in bunk." The history we are taught is a compound of lies contradicting the record of truth. As a friend used to say, "History is written by the victor."

Religion is likewise written for "blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch!" The leaders and their followers are blind because they are too lazy to go back to the source or because they ever encountered the revelation of the present Truth and are impersonating the Word for a day gone by. This explains why the foolish virgin are justified and sanctified—"saved"—but not born-again.

An illuminated understanding of history lies not in the details, but in a broad overview in which all of the important aspects fit. As true history is the record of the warfare between God and Satan we should realize that history does not "just happen." History is the episodic outworking of plans prepared centuries in advance. True history is the record of warfare between God and Satan. Bible believers understand God and Satan are building rival kingdoms from God's plan. God is fulfilling His plan by grace through faith in His elect, while Satan, who is the sum of wisdom and beauty, is perverting God's plan to his purpose through knowledge and reasoning against the faith.

Historic details are not unimportant, but the details one places as counterpoint to one's broad view must be confirmed truth, not mere opinion. History books written by Court historians shed no light and are massively distorted by lies. Such corrupt records are impressed upon the masses via school and university curricula, the controlled press and the movie industry—all agents of the 'hidden hand' that controls the Establishment.

Our leaders are imprisoned by the sins of the 'hidden hand.' So fearful they dare not embrace simple truths that will set them free. So fearful they will send your sons to cover their lies under their blood. Sir John Fortescue said, "Treason never prospers, for when it prospers, none dare call it treason." Revelation 6:8, "I beheld a pale horse, and its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him." Brother Branham certainly understood what he was preaching.

The same "City of London" working to bring their present World War III to the "hot" stage has already killed millions of innocent civilians and brave Muslim soldiers defending their homelands.

Now "The City" almost openly rules the once Christian West, which is "naked, miserable, blind and wretched, and ignorant of its condition." Already bowing at Mammon's feet, we could not fight our way out of a wet paper bag let alone sustain a major war. Our foolish "just in time" warehousing is not sustainable since raw materials and components are now sourced from those God has set at enmity with us. Bankrupt, we import our own brands from the enemy on credit, and with our productive industries in foreign, often enemy lands, cannot trade our way out of debt.

Mr. Rothschild knew what he was about when he prepared his strategy. His interests now control all central banks except in Muslim countries. He creates credit out of thin air, and even issues the money for some of our governments.

Having disaffirmed the Absolute of God's Holy Bible, our nations now own no foundation of appeal on which to repent, expose and evict the enemy within. The US is compromised to the point of killing innocent foreigners to ensure oil trades in US dollars. With no demand its worthless greenback would turn to dust, and if the dollar fails the lies will unravel. The US is now only a killing machine as Jesus foretold in Revelation 13:11-18, and because it cannot sustain a long war it must employ nuclear weapons and biological warfare to expedite victory.

Brother Branham said, "The world is falling apart . . . the world systems will end." Not only are history, religion and commerce sustained by lies, the complaint against this Church was a misrepresentation of facts preceded by ten years of defamatory lies in the public media. I believe the aim of the litigation is to establish a precedent by which they might one day appeal to justify legislation granting them even greater preeminence. Their ultimate objective being to bring us Gentiles subject to their fraudulent Noahide laws already legislated in the United States.

For the past twelve years we have "turned the other cheek," and committed the matter to the Lord. God works openly, and as He is no respecter of persons each individual is placed on free moral agency to believe and conduct themselves as they choose. The exercise of free choice determines their destiny and who, from Adam's race, will enter the Kingdom of God. God's Adversary works in darkness, concealed behind another name and in a different occupation (Genesis 3:14-15). Whereas God's program is freely executed by grace through faith in the reciprocal love of the saints, the Adversary's program is enforced by works: coercion, deception and force of law.

Although God has granted liberty to each man to choose as he will there comes a day of reckoning when each must give account as the unjust steward in the parable of Luke 16:1-13 was called by God to account for his mismanagement. Having bestowed full confidence upon this steward God had not previously required a reckoning from him at all, until, suspecting the man's dishonesty he resolved to examine the accounts.

The dishonest steward had charged the tenant farmers an excessive rental, paid his master the fair rental, and squandered the difference. Now he seeks to buy favor with the tenant farmers and to justify himself before the Lord by writing farm contracts that agree with the amount already transmitted to his lord and hide his dishonesty. So one lie is employed to cover a series of earlier lies and simultaneously subordinated the farmers to himself.

The unjust steward intends to continue his deception of the share farmers by creating division between them and their master whilst obligating them by this unexpected favor. One more lie (verse 4).

"And the lord commended the unjust steward because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their lineage wiser than the children of Light" (Luke 16:8).

God commended this steward, not for his injustice but for the worldly-wise cleverness of his foresight and skillful adaptation of a means to an end. The means which prudence manages are temporal, and therefore foreign to the aims of the children of Light who live in the Spirit. And because prudence belongs to the understanding and the expedience of the world, those such as the unjust steward are "children of this world" whose well-considered worldly plans commonly far surpass the worldly abilities of the children of Light who are accustomed to walk in the Light of truth.

(This was the situation in which we found ourselves in the court, for we were on the Devil's territory).

Counseling the publicans and sinners and the Pharisees who were covetous (Luke 15:1; 16:14), Jesus says with cutting sarcasm, "I tell you, use your unrighteous wealth to make friends for yourselves so that when it fails, those you have relieved may witness in your favor at the judgment." Like the unjust steward, these men, even if they abandon their ways, do so only out of worldly self-interest.

Faithfulness is measured not by degree but fidelity. For it is not possible for one to be faithful in greater things and simultaneously unfaithful in lesser things.

Directing Himself to His disciples, Jesus says if they have been like the unjust steward in his former course but not in the prudence with which he, while there was yet time, made good the evil he had committed, who should entrust them to the true good of revelation by which we enter eternal habitations? And if you are not faithful stewards in that which the Lord has entrusted to your use in this earthly life, and which is transitory for it will pass to your heirs, be spoiled or lost, who shall give you that which shall be yours for eternity? That is, a Christ-like character with the Token on display. One cannot serve God and be enslaved to mammon.

In Luke 12:20-21 Jesus says, "He who stores up treasure for himself on earth and is not rich in relation to God in heaven" will lose all. He admonishes us to place our whole trust in the Lord for our earthly necessities, for He will also clothe us with the armor of God.

When He returned "as a thief" from the wedding at the close of Laodicea He knocked on the church doors that have Him shut out. But those who hear the "shout" immediately open their heart: girded with truth he enters and serves them a full seven course meal of strong meat in due season. Jesus was predicting the end of His intercession for ignorance which made it possible for the Church Age saints to be united with Him in a Spiritual wedding union whilst the Book was sealed with Seven Seals.

This Scripture was fulfilled in Christ's 'parousia' Coming in the office of Son of man. You might ask: If the Wedding is over, what about Christ's end-time Bride? The answer is we were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary along with the 144,000 elect Israelites. We are predestinated to the Age of the fullness of the Word and do not require a Mediator—"when He knocks, we open to Him immediately." Christ's end-time Bride is that wise steward of Luke 12:42 blessed with our portion of meat in due season.

Romans 12:1-3, 9-21, "I beseech you brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him. . . Let your love be sincere with abhorrence of evil. Be joined together in a brotherhood of mutual love, trying to outdo one another in showing respect. Never slacking in interest, serving the Lord aglow with the Spirit, joyfully hoping as you endure affliction, persistent in prayer; contributing to the needs of the saints; practicing hospitality.

Bless your persecutors: bless, and do not curse. Share the joy of those who rejoice and the grief of those who grieve. Live in harmony with others, do not aspire to eminence, but associate yourselves with humble people. Never be conceited.

Recompense to no man evil for evil, but determine on the noblest ways of dealing with people. And if possible, so far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Do not avenge yourselves, dear friends, but leave that to God: for it is written, Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.

Instead, if your enemy hunger, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink: for in so doing you will pile burning coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good". eb428.htm

Southern San Andreas Fault waiting to Explode

London, June 21, 2006– The southern end of the San Andreas Fault near Los Angeles, which has been still for more than two centuries, is under immense stress and could produce a massive earthquake at any moment. . . Yuri Fialko, of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at La Jolla, California, said that given average annual movement rates in other areas of the fault, there could be enough pent-up energy in the southern end to trigger a cataclysmic jolt of up to 10 meters (32 ft). "The observed strain rates confirm that the southern section of the San Andreas Fault may be approaching the end of the interseismic phase of the earthquake cycle," he wrote in the science journal Nature. A sudden lateral movement of 7 to 10 meters would be among the largest ever recorded.

According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the earthquake that destroyed San Francisco in 1906 was produced by a sudden movement of the northern end of the fault of up to 21 ft. Full story: reuters.com

Melting Glaciers alter Earth's Surface, spur Quakes, Volcanoes

June 9, 2006– Imagine the surface of Earth as a giant trampoline that accumulated a slab of ice over the winter, and you can get a sense of what a growing number of scientists say is in store for the planet as glaciers keep melting.

Once the trampoline's ice turns to water that drips over the edges in the warm days of spring, the concave elastic slowly rebounds to its original flat shape. That's how Earth responds as glaciers retreat, and the consequences promise to be . . . interesting.

The reason is that one cubic meter of ice weighs just over a ton, and glaciers can be hundreds of meters thick. When they melt and the water runs off, it is literally a weight off Earth's crust. The crust and mantle therefore bounce back, immediately as well as over thousands of years. That "isostatic rebound," according to studies of prehistoric and recent earthquakes and volcanoes, can make the planet's seismic plates slip catastrophically, and cause magma chambers that feed volcanoes to act like bottles of shaken seltzer.

"It's unavoidable that glacial retreat will induce tectonic activity," says geoscientist Allen Glazner of the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Full story: truthout.org  truthout.org

Morgellons– Weird 'Alien' Bug hits USA

America invaded by Aliens!

Most American people really do not know what this is all about or what is soon to happen in our land. This is the beginning of a planned revolution as blueprinted and orchestrated by the masterminds of the Illuminati Great Conspiracy. Before I continue with this thought, I must first point out that it would be both unscriptural and intellectually dishonest to condemn an entire race of people. There are some honest Hispanic people and those of other races who have entered this country legally and have followed proper procedure. There are those who are productive, honest, and most importantly, good Christians. . .

The Illuminists need a revolution in the United States to produce instability and a social cataclysm that will change everything forever and bring forth a quantum leap into a new world order. We know that the US Government purposely allowed many millions of illegal aliens to enter the country and settle . . . Our Congress began to move against them with laws that threaten to make them felons and to face deportation. It was understood in advance that there would be a massive uprising which would start as peaceful protests and eventually become violent riots. . .
Full story: lasttrumpetministries.org

Comment: This is the fulfillment of Matthew 24:37 and the replication of the original sin on a global scale . . . "as it was in the days of Noah." This is the Illuminati's diabolical plan to induce universal hatred and anarchy for their third major revolution which will become Armageddon. The huge waves of refugees artificially generated by the Illuminati are using innocent people as pawns. India is being invaded by thousands of refugees from Sri Lanka; Australia has accepted 19,000 refugees from Somalia, more from other African nations, and is begging to bring in tens of thousands from refugee camps in Pakistan and Burma. Parliamentarians without Christ are falling over one another to open wide our borders on "humanitarian" and "Christian" grounds not realizing that their unscriptural populist stance is playing right into the hands of their hidden masters.

Not only are these deliberately displaced refugees pawns of the elite, so are the citizens of the United States, Australia and the European countries upon which they are being imposed. As a Sister from Nigeria wrote, "By the Grace of God we are heaven bound. All this are just temporary".

The Council on Foreign Relations—often described as a "shadow government"—issued a comprehensive report last year laying out a five-year plan for the 'establishment by 2010 of a North American economic and security community' with a common 'outer security perimeter?'

Roughly translated, in the next few years, according to the 59-page report titled "Building a North American Community," the US must be integrated with the socialism, corruption, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open US borders between the US, Mexico and Canada. As Phyllis Schlafly reveals in Whistleblower: "This CFR document asserts that President Bush, Mexican President Vicente Fox and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin 'committed their governments' to this goal when they met at Bush's ranch and at Waco, Texas, on March 23, 2005. The three adopted the 'Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America' and assigned 'working groups' to fill in the details. It was at this same meeting, grandly called the North American Summit, that President Bush pinned the epithet 'vigilantes' on the volunteers guarding our border in Arizona."

On May 10th the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin reported the US Government was informing Mexico of the exact locations of the Minutemen. President Bush made it clear to Mexican President Fox that stationing National Guardsmen on the border was "not militarization of the border" but the appeasement of "certain Americans who are beginning to ask too many questions"! According to Phyllis Schlafly's column (April 12, 2006) the Los Angeles Times has reported a video produced by George II to win the hearts of Mexican voters in which he is seen waving a Mexican flag and describing Texans as foreigners in Mexico's native land.

US Secret Gun Deal: 200,000 AK-47s Missing

Pentagon has secretly shipped tens of thousands of small arms from Bosnia to Iraq in the past two years, using a web of private companies, at least one of which is a noted arms smuggler blacklisted by Washington and the UN. But though the weaponry was said to be for arming the fledgling Iraqi military, there is no evidence of the guns reaching their recipient. Full story: truthout.org

America– Freedom to Fascism

Cannes– Aaron Russo's incendiary political documentary which exposes many of the governmental organizations and entities that have abridged the freedoms of US citizens had its international premiere at Cannes and won a standing ovation. The event, which was held on the beach and filled to capacity, was open to the public and drew a crowd of people who stood along the boardwalk to watch the film.

Through interviews with US Congressmen, as well the former IRS Commissioner, former IRS and FBI agents, tax attorneys and authors, Russo proves conclusively that there is no law requiring citizens to pay a direct tax on their labor. His film connects the dots between money creation, federal income tax, voter fraud, the national identity card (which becomes law in May 2008) and the implementation of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology to track citizens. Neither left nor right-wing in perspective, the film concludes that the US government is taking on the characteristics of a police state.

The international audience at Cannes as well as the European media has been fascinated by Russo's fiery diatribe against the direction America is heading. View Trailers: freedomtofascism.com

Keeping Iraq's Oil in the Ground

June 14, 2006– World oil production today stands at more than twice the 15-billion a-year maximum projected by Shell Oil in 1956—and reserves are climbing at a faster clip yet. That leaves the question, Why this war?

Did Dick Cheney send us in to seize the last dwindling supplies? Unlikely! Our world's petroleum reserves have doubled in just twenty-five years—and it is in Shell's and the rest of the industry's interest that this doubling doesn't happen again. The neo-cons were hell-bent on raising Iraq's oil production. Big Oil's interest was in suppressing production; that is, keeping Iraq to its OPEC quota or less. This raises the question, did the petroleum industry, which had a direct, if hidden, hand, in promoting invasion, cheerlead for a takeover of Iraq to prevent overproduction? Full story: alternet.org

The Proposed Iranian Oil Bourse

The proposed Iranian Oil Bourse will accelerate the fall of the American Empire.

A nation-state taxes its own citizens, while an empire taxes other nation-states. The history of empires, from Greek and Roman, to Ottoman and British, teaches that the economic foundation of every single empire is the taxation of other nations. The imperial ability to tax has always rested on a better and stronger economy, and as a consequence, a better and stronger military. One part of the subject taxes went to improve the living standards of the empire; the other part went to strengthen the military dominance necessary to enforce the collection of those taxes.

Historically, taxing the subject state has been in various forms—usually gold and silver, where those were considered money, but also slaves, soldiers, crops, cattle, or other agricultural and natural resources, whatever economic goods the empire demanded and the subject-state could deliver. Historically, imperial taxation has always been direct: the subject state handed over the economic goods directly to the empire.

For the first time in history, in the twentieth century, America was able to tax the world indirectly, through inflation. It did not enforce the direct payment of taxes like all of its predecessor empires did, but distributed instead its own fiat currency, the US Dollar, to other nations in exchange for goods with the intended consequence of inflating and devaluing those dollars and paying back later each dollar with less economic goods—the difference capturing the US imperial tax. . .

Russia shifts Part of its Forex Reserves from Dollars to Euros

June 9, 2006– On Thursday, June 8, Russia became the latest in the list of countries that shifted a part of its Central Bank reserves from the dollar. Sergei Ignatyev, chairman of the Central Bank, said that only 50 percent of its reserves are now held in dollars, with 40 percent in euros and the rest in pounds sterling. Earlier it was believed that just 25-30 percent of Russia's reserves were held in euros, with virtually all the rest held in dollars.

Russia's gold and foreign currency reserves have grown rapidly over the last few years in tandem with high oil and gas prices. As MosNews has reported earlier, Russia currently has the world's fourth-largest reserves, after China, Japan and Taiwan, and it looks to overcome Taiwan by the end of the year, with reserves growing by $5-6 billion monthly.

Data on Nuclear Agency Workers Hacked: Lawmaker

Washington, June 10, 2006—A computer hacker got into the US agency that guards the country's nuclear weapons stockpile and stole the personal records of at least 1,500 employees and contractors, a senior US lawmaker said on Friday.

The target of the hacker, the National Nuclear Safety Administration, is the latest agency to reveal that sensitive private information about government workers was stolen . . .

Earlier this week the Pentagon revealed that personal information on about 2.2 million active-duty, National Guard and Reserve troops was stolen last month from a government employee's house.

That comes on top of the theft of data on 26.5 million US military veterans, the Department of Veterans Affairs has said. Full story: abcnews.go.com

Anoint Your Eyes with Eye Salve that you may See

Matthew 4:23-25, "Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in the synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing all manner of sickness and infirmity among the people. So His fame spread throughout Syria: and they brought Him all the sick with various diseases and pains, demoniacs, epileptics and paralytics, and He healed them. And great multitudes followed Him from Galilee, Decapolis, from Jerusalem, Judea and from beyond Jordan".

Brother Branham's ministry paralleled that of our Lord. In revealing Jesus Christ, his first and second "pulls" attracted multitudes wherever he went. People appreciated the blessings of healing and rejoiced in sincere worship, but as it was in the days of Jesus' ministry, few received the revelation of the Message.

Luke 17:26-30, "As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of the Son of man. They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed."

Life goes on as usual. People are oblivious to the fact we live "in the days of the Son of man" or that God sent Billy Graham and Oral Roberts to the church in Sodom and the covenant prophet William Branham to His elect (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7). God veiled Himself behind the flesh of this sinner saved by grace and revealed Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, and today and forever by the Messianic sign of Hebrews 4:12 "discerning the thoughts and intents of people's hearts . . . as He did in the days of Lot;" raising the dead, restoring sight to the blind and introducing Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming. "Willingly ignorant, they walk after their own lusts (as it was in the days of Noah and Lot), saying, 'Where is the promise of His 'parousia'? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation" (II Peter 3:3-5).

I have decided to publish this response to an email disputing elements of the revelation as an exercise for us to review our own understanding of God's unchanging Word. A precious Brother wrote, "For the sake of the truth please explain":

There are some who propagate the teaching that redemption has been over since the year 1963. There are a great many others who deny this fact.

This Church is now at the climax of twelve years of persecution and two years of litigation by a people who deny facts. The first among those who teach this doctrine was our Lord Jesus Christ in chapters four and five of the Book of Revelation. Brother Branham also taught this revelation, which Christ's end-time Bride "prophesies again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings" (Revelation 10:8-11; Matthew 7:14).

Our teachings, "Redemption is Over," and "Christ's Mediation," explained how His end-time Bride and the 144,000 elect Israelites were each fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary but that the Apostolic and Church Age saints could not be fully redeemed on the Cross because so long as the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals they would have only PART-Word and imperfect faith. Consequently their understanding was unacceptable to God as it included "Jewish fables and commandments of men that turn from the truth having backslidden from their first love" in the Ephesian Age (Titus 1:14; Revelation 2:4). These PART-Word saints required a go-between to stand in the breach and mediate between themselves and a jealous God who will only receive His own Word with nothing added to or diminished from it.

When the last of the saints predestinated to the PART-Word divisions of the Body was born-again in the Laodicean Church Age, the blood came off the Mercy Seat in the heavenly tabernacle and it became a judgment seat as described in Revelation 4. The seven portions of the Spirit that had anointed the "angels" to the seven Church Ages, their Messages, and those whose lives became written epistles of the Word for their day, returned to the throne of God where they stood as lamps of Fire.

When the elders called for a kinsman Redeemer in Revelation 5, Jesus advanced from the altar of sacrifice where the body of the Lamb of God slain to take away the sins of the world lay for 2,000 years as a memorial while as High Priest and Mediator in the Office of Son of God, Christ interceded for the errors of the PART-Word saints, receiving the Word for their Age and placing their ignorance under the Blood or in the brazen sea of God's forgetfulness, which is crystal clear in Revelation 4:6, indicating that the last of the PART-Word saints who required mediation had been manifested on earth, or born-again.

Proven worthy to claim the Book redeemed with His own Blood Jesus broke the Seven Seals that had concealed the mystery of God from the foundation of the world. Then in Revelation 10:1-7 He descended with the Church Age saints in WORD form through the mouth of the seventh angel Brother Branham in the "Shout" of the end-time Message, which is the fullness of the Word: Christ the Logos (I Thessalonians 4:14-16; Jude 14-15; Acts 3:21; I Corinthians 13:10). As the prophets foretold, the "end-time" commenced when Jesus opened the Seven Seals (Daniel 12:4, 9; Revelation 5; 6; 10:4).

Christ is the mystery of God revealed. As the image and glory of her Husband, His Bride the true Church is the mystery of Christ revealed in redemption (I Corinthians 11:7; Ephesians 5:23-32). Thus the Bible is the story of God changing His form or unfolding Himself from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts to their manifestation as the members of His glorified family: Jesus Messiah and His Gentile Bride. The Book once sealed but now open in the hand of the Redeemer is the revelation of Himself for it is the Book of Redemption and contains only the names of those born of the Logos.

In God's foreknowledge all of these saints were redeemed from the foundation of the world (Revelation 13:8). He could not fully redeem the Church Age saints on Calvary because they were predestinated to be born the second time while the Book was sealed, and knowing only PART-Word, were in disagreement with the fullness and required a mediator. Through the revelation of the Seven Seals Christ's end-time Bride has the perfect interpretation of the Word—"that which is perfect" or complete—and have no need for a Mediator. So when Christ returned through the revelation of the Seals He was no longer in the office of Son of God and Mediator (John 5:25-26) but Son of man and Judge (John 5:27). There was no more blood on the heavenly throne, and redemption was over.

The Brother wrote: "Brother Branham taught that when the Blood leaves the Mercy Seat the world will witness the outpouring of the wrath of God, which is presently restrained by the presence of the Blood. If the Blood of Jesus Christ was removed from the Mercy Seat, it would cause complete separation of the worshiper from God".

Our Brother overlooks the fact that the Life is in the Blood, and the Bride is the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Ghost (Galatians 3:27-29). During the dispensations of PART-Word the saints were under the blood by virtue of a go-between who interceded for their ignorance of the fullness. Now the last part of the Body is the head or intelligence; Christ's end-time Bride is the Capstone that completes the Body. We are growing to maturity in the unity of the faith under pre-eminence to our Husband, the Word. "The Voice of the Archangel" is in us for the "third pull" in the manifestation of the Sons of God to endue us with rapturing faith for the great translation.

The PART-Word saints were under the Blood, and displayed the measure of the Life of Christ manifest to their Age: "faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, and brotherly kindness"—as explained in II Peter 1:1-8. Now we have the Token which is the Life of Christ in us. The Blood was the evidence that the Life had been surrendered in sacrifice but that Life has come back upon Christ's Bride, and the Token on display in Christ's end-time Bride is the evidence that the Life of Christ is living in us.

"Thus saith the Lord, heaven is My throne, and the Earth is My footstool: where is the house that you build unto Me? And where is the place of My rest?" (Isaiah 66:1; Acts 7:49).

Matthew 11:27-30, "All things are delivered to Me by My Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and He to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him. (It is impossible to know one without knowing the other because Jesus is the Father manifest in flesh as He is the beginning of God creating Himself into His new creation of God-men—I John 2:23; 4:15; Revelation 3:14). Come unto Me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light".

Heaven is God's throne, while Earth is the place of His judgment and Christ's domain. The place of His eternal Sabbath and "House" is Jesus Christ and the Bride of all Ages. Christ's Bride is the Blood of Christ that makes Earth a Mercy Seat. Our presence is withholding the wrath of God and the Great Tribulation. When the resurrection of the sleeping saints is complete and we are changed in the atoms and caught up with the rest of the Body to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the sky, God's wrath will fall. The Holy Spirit leaves Earth in the form of Christ's Bride and comes back to anoint the two Hebrew prophets to Israel when Earth is His Judgment Seat.

John 5:26-27, "as the Father has Life in Himself; He has given to the Son to have Life in Himself; and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of man".

I Corinthians 15:25-28, "Jesus must reign, till He has put all enemies under His feet (or judged the world—Matthew 19:28; 25:31-46; I Corinthians 6:3; Revelation 20:11-15). The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death. For God has put all things in subjection under His feet. But when He says all things are put under Him, it is clear that God who put all things under Him is excepted. And when all things are subdued unto Him, then shall the Son also Himself be subject to God who put all things under Him, so that God may be utterly supreme".

The Brother wrote: Each attribute of God's plan of Redemption, such as the Kinsman Redeemer, the High Priest, the Intercessor, the Mediator, the Sacrifice upon the Mercy Seat, the Throne of Grace would become void. This would cause the breach or chasm to re-occur between God and man, which the condescending of God (through Jesus Christ) had bridged.

Breach between the Church Ages and the SealsThe sacrifice was not upon the Mercy Seat in the Holy of Holies but upon the altar of sacrifice in the Outer Court. This Earth is the throne of grace so long as Christ's Bride is present. The breach re-occurred in 1963 at the close of the Laodicean Church Age. That was Revelation 4 and 5. Since there was no more blood on the Mercy Seat in heaven and Christ was now Judge and not a Mediator, Brother Branham stood in the gap or breach between the Church Ages and the Seals to receive and deliver the fullness of the Word that would enable Christ's end-time Bride to cross that chasm back to God by perfect faith.

We expounded the revelation of the Breach in three parts: Part I– The Kinsman Redeemer, Part II– Standing in the Gap, and Part III– Crossing the Chasm as Sons of God. While in Newsletters 290– 294 we expounded Revelation 4 and 5.

The Brother wrote: By doing away with the Intercession of the Blood of Christ you would do away with numerous gifts and promises given to the Church. For example, Salvation, Grace, Perfection, Divine healing, and free moral agency, would all be gone.

The Blood of Christ was only an evidence that the life had been given, it could not intercede; it was the Word that interceded in response to faith in the Word for the hour (Isaiah 55:11). The other speculations do not merit address.

He went on to say: The following appendix poses pertinent questions based upon Brother Branham's Message concerning the Blood and Redemption as it applies to us today. Please note the date of many of Brother Branham's statements, especially those which are quoted after March, 1963.

Our well-meaning Brother composed sixteen irrelevant questions and proceeded to answer them incorrectly with thirty pages of misplaced quotes from Brother Branham's Message. In trying to unlock the Message by the Message he has fallen into a trap common to so many sincere ministers who have heard the Voice of the seventh angel, I know because I have been in this dilemma. The Message is the key given to Christ's end-time Bride to unlock the Bible, not the Message. We are commanded by Isaiah, Jesus, Paul and Brother Branham, to take the Message back to Scripture from Genesis to Revelation so that we understand what it "means," not learn what it "says" (Isaiah 8:20; Matthew 4:4; Acts 17:11; Romans 3:4; Galatians 1:8-9; I Thessalonians 5:21, etc).

Our Brother has learned the "letter" of the "Shout" of the Message but that just makes him responsible before God. He is not an unbeliever because he has come out of Babylon. He is among the virgin aroused from denominational slumberland and is justified and sanctified; but without a clear revelation of the Message there is at this point no evidence that would identify him among the wise virgin.

We should not create doctrine by quoting Brother Branham's words unless we have taken them back to the Scripture for the understanding the Spirit inspired to the Prophet. We must remember also that the prophets often did not comprehend their inspired Message but knew only that they were delivering THUS SAITH THE LORD (I Peter 1:10-12). From the transcripts of his sermons it is clear Brother Branham did not fully understand everything he had spoken under inspiration until the very end of his ministry.

Isaiah would not have understood how the nation of Israel could be born in one day (Isaiah 66:8). Zechariah did not know that under the Sixth Seal radiation will consume the eyes, tongues and flesh of those who fight against Jerusalem (Zechariah 14:12). John was caught up in the Spirit into the day of the Lord, which follows the opening of the Sixth Seal at the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet, and he looked back and reported upon Brother Branham's ministry in 1963-1965, yet he could not possibly have understood what God was revealing to him in those visions and is probably still questioning what a "Ricketta" might be.

Our Brother has read the Message as if it was describing future events when his quotations embrace prophecies that came to pass 43 years ago. He is faithfully reciting the "letter" but without the Spirit he is out of fellowship since he is not walking in the Light as God is in it, having misplaced or as Brother Branham said, "mislocated" the Scripture, as Israel and the Church at the end of their dispensations mislocated the first and second Comings of Christ.

In teaching and preaching from the "letter" of the Message without entering the same Spirit as the Prophet we overlook God's command to Brother Branham not to explain the "third pull" or opening of the Word as this would invite carnal impersonations of the Message. As He withheld the eyes of Mary, and those who walked with him on the Emmaus road from recognizing the risen Lord (John 20:14-16; Luke 24:13-16), God restrained His prophet from explaining the minutiae of the "third pull." Since its revelation is "hidden between the lines" one cannot intellectually find or pass the Life by preaching the "letter" quote upon quote. Thus Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables but expounded the revelation to His disciples privately (Matthew 13:10-13; John 16).

1. Are we under the Blood or are we not?

If we are born-again we are "under the Blood." But the Blood of Jesus Christ like the blood over the lintels of the Israelites was the evidence of a sacrifice made and received in faith by those dwelling under that sign. The heavenly temple after which the earthly tabernacle and temple were patterned was a schematic diagram whose symbols illustrate the Book of Revelation and direct those to whom their significance is revealed back across the chasm to God. Like the parables of Jesus these earthly signs possessed heavenly meanings so that the signs were not to be read literally but understood as shadows and types by men of faith.

To say we are under the Blood is not to imply that there exists a deposit of Christ's Blood but that the benefits of His sacrifice have been applied to us "Life for life." The blood of Jesus was the spoken Word of God made manifest.

Christ's three Offices2. Will the Blood remain on the Mercy Seat as an Intercessory, as long as Satan, the accuser is present before the Throne?

The Brother has misquoted The Revelation of the Seven Seals, page 305:3, which says: "as long as the Intercessor is still on the throne, Satan can stand there and accuse." The Body of Jesus is on God's throne which was once sprinkled with His Blood. However, as there is no blood on that Mercy Seat Christ is no longer an Intercessor and it is now a Judgment Seat where Jesus is seated in the office of King of kings and Judge.

3. Has the Church Age ended and the rapture already happened?

The Church Age ended and the rapture commenced in March, 1963.

4. Has the resurrection already taken place? Has the "time appointed," (as described by Brother Branham) the time Christ "calls" for His Queen, and "He claims His possession," already happened?

In the sense that Christ does all three—"Shout, Voice and Trump"—as He descends in WORD form with the sleeping saints in theophany or Word form bodies, and heaven has been empty for the space of half an hour, the threefold PROCESS of the resurrection has already advanced to its second phase wherein the Voice of the Archangel is in His end-time Bride.

In expounding Ephesians 4:30, ". . . grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby you are sealed unto the day of your redemption," Brother Branham explained that that day was in March, 1963 when Christ claimed the Book of Redemption and revealed it to His Bride. This is the "shout" of the Message by means of which He has called His Queen (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16). When she receives the revelation she has heard her Name called from the Lamb's Book of Life, recognized her place in the Word and her position in the Body.

The day of redemption was in March 1963 when Christ redeemed the Book, fulfilling Revelation 5:7 by taking possession of all the New Testament saints including the 144,000 elect Israelites. Since then He has opened the Seven Seals and revealed "who's" Names are written and "how" He redeemed them in each Age (Revelation 6:1-8). So the focus of our ministry is no longer on preaching "justification" as it was throughout the Church Ages, but "Redemption Revealed."

Those who are not in the Spiritual cycle of the "shout and the Voice of the Archangel" will have no part in the physical translation or body change following the "Seventh Trumpet" and the manifestation of the Sons of God.

Trying legalistically to define the "letter" which is a shadow of good things to come into the very image of those things is doctrinaire and causes confusion rather than edification.

5. Has the last Gentile been saved? Has the change of dispensations occurred, from the Gentile back to the Jews? If the Blood has been removed from the mercy seat why hasn't the wrath of God fell upon the earth, i.e. the literal opening of the 6th seal, and the tribulation period?

The Brother is confusing "salvation" with election and new birth. Every child of Adam is born "saved" from his mother's womb because the last Adam died to redeem the first Adam, and all of his seed were potentially in him in the Garden of Eden (I John 2:2). To use our Brother's terminology, every child of Adam is "under the Blood" until the age of accountability and thereafter unless or until he comes to the place of no more repentance through the injudicious exercise of his free moral agency like Esau.

There was no change of dispensation from the Jews and there will be no change of dispensation to the Jews. The dispensation for Jews who are in Adam's race is right now, for they are Gentiles. After the Gentile dispensation the Lord will turn back to Israel to call an election of 144,000 from among those who are blood Israelites descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, not to the Jews.

Christians are the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Ghost, and so long as we are on Earth, God's footstool remains a Mercy Seat. When the Bride is taken Home, it becomes His Judgment Seat.

6. If the "last one" had "come in," in March 1963, (after the Seals were opened) why would Brother Branham say in 1964, "He's setting at the right hand of God TONIGHT doing His mediatorial work"?

The answer is in the next three sentences the Brother neglected to quote: ". . . And when that last soul is saved that was redeemed and seen and knowed by God before the foundation of the world, when that last soul's saved, that closes the Book. Then the Lamb comes out and takes the Book out of the right hand of Him that sets upon the throne. Then He's coming then. He's coming to the earth."

Brother Branham was explaining what took place thirteen months before he ministered this sermon in 1964, and forty-three years before the Brother wrote these questions.

In each of the quotes our Brother lists the Prophet was explaining what was fulfilled in 1963. Christ's mediatorial office ceased when the last saint predestinated to Laodicea was baptized into that part of the Body, then He came for His Queen who does not require mediation.

7. If the "last one" has come in, why did Brother Branham claim to still be searching for that "last one" in sermons preached after March 1963?

The Prophet was speaking of the last member of Christ's end-time Bride, not the last member of the PART-Word saints.

8. If Christ had to remain as an Intercessor until every name had been manifested on earth, (which we understand was by being born, . . . a baby becomes a living soul when it takes its first breath . . . ) has there not been one elected seed born since 1963?

We should not understand this as the physical birth by woman through sexual generation to natural life but of the soul being born or spiritually quickened to eternal Life through faith by the Man. Brother Branham was typing the natural birth with the Spiritual as John typed it in I John 5. He was speaking of the earthly manifestation through re-generation of those whose names were written in the Lamb's Book of Life, not our existing manifestation on earth as names written in the Book of Life, which as Paul explained, precedes the Spiritual birth (I Corinthians 15:12-58).

If Christ were to remain an Intercessor until the last person in Adam's race was physically born of woman He would be a Mediator throughout the tribulation.

9. Why would Brother Branham print in the Church Age Book, "His present office . . . ; now" is the High Priest? (Remember, Brother Branham personally edited this book for 5 years . . . then distributed it Dec 4, 1965.)

When John was on the Island of Patmos, and when Brother Branham was preaching the Church Ages for the second time, Christ was in the office of High Priest. However, as we read on we learn that His mediation had to be fulfilled before He could reveal the mystery of the Seven Seals to His Prophet. When He came forward to answer the elders' call for a kinsman Redeemer, His role changed from the bloody sacrificial Lamb to the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, and from High Priest and Mediator to King of kings and Judge as foretold in Revelation 4 and 5. That was fulfilled in 1963 before the revelation of the Seals.

10. If there is no Intercessor or High Priest, (because the Blood has been removed) has the gift of healing been done away with? Has the apostolic age ceased? If the apostolic age is over, why did Brother Branham insist it had not, in 1964?

Christ was a Mediator for the ignorance of the PART-Word saints whilst the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals. He did not intercede for the gift of healing or for the apostolic age. And by the way, Jehovah-Rapha was healing the faithful for four thousand years before the Blood of Christ was created, and Jesus sent forth seventy apostles some years before it was shed.

I Corinthians 13:10, "When that which is perfect or complete has come, which is Christ the Logos or fullness of the Word, then PART-Word and mediation for ignorance of the fullness will be done away".

The revelation of the Seals brought Christ back to earth in WORD form, and as the prophet explained, "We now have the perfect interpretation of the Word," so there is no requirement for mediation among those who have received the Spirit, particularly if they have the gift of the fivefold as distinct from a one fold ministry.

11. Is it possible to separate any of the attributes from the Seven Redemptive Names of Jehovah, manifested through Jesus Christ? Can we do away with parts of the 7 compound redemptive names? Is He no longer Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord's provided sacrifice for salvation, and Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord that heals all our diseases? Why would Brother Branham say the 7 compound names STILL apply to Him in November of 1963?

Unbelief can deny Malachi 3:6 and Hebrews 13:8.

12. If the Blood does not apply to the Bride after 1963, why did Brother Branham say it "perfects the Bride" in 1964? How will the Bride now be perfected without the Blood?

The Blood was the evidence that the natural life of the innocent Sacrifice had been received in substitution for the sinful life of the penitent sinner. Unlike the natural lamb this Victim had a soul with eternal Life. By faith it could come back to slay your soul's husband-part, which is the nature of Satan, and quicken the soul of the penitent to eternal Life in an invisible union of Spiritual marriage or new birth. This Life that was released by the shedding of Jesus' Blood perfects the Bride. Without a Mediator it could not perfect the PART-Word saints because they only had access to PART of the Life so long as the Book was sealed, but they identified with the bloody sacrifice and as High Priest Christ received their faith in the Word for their day and placed their ignorance under the Blood, or "winked" at it as a father ignores certain immaturities in a child, for the Body was still growing into the Head or Capstone where it is today.

13. How does a believer have the Token without first accepting and applying the Blood Atonement?

He doesn't, does he? However the atonement took place 2,000 years ago. Christ's natural Blood fell upon the ground and returned to the elements. In the antitype of the atonement of Israel's first Passover, His blood cleansed the heavenly sanctuary of the accumulated sins of the Old Testament saints, but this is a pantomime or play by which God's children can understand the cruelty of sin, and the penalty that it cost to rid sin from our lives. (See Brother Branham's 1953 sermon by the same title).

Our Brother is trying to apply a literal interpretation to symbols and shadows as if they were the substance they represent. Blood is a chemical that conducts the spirit of natural life throughout the body and cleanses it of physical impurities. Blood cannot cleanse the soul of sin. Blood is a natural substance whereas your soul is a spiritual being that cannot be touched by blood. The Blood of Christ is an earthly evidence of the substitutionary sacrifice of an acceptable natural life which released the Spiritual Life of His soul or Holy Spirit to unite as one or atone the penitent believer by his faith in a new birth through three steps of grace typed by water, blood and the mortal spirit of natural birth. Through faith in the all-sufficient voluntary sacrifice of Jesus' natural life our soul is justified by grace, and as we grow in the faith, our mind, which is the womb of the spirit, is cleansed by the washing of water by the Word, or revelation—"Ooh, I should not cut my hair, paint my face and wear clothes that pertain to a man."—"Aah, I had better dress like a man, cut out mixed bathing, smoking, drinking, and gambling; provide for my family and take headship over my wife."

We are sanctified by the cleansing power of the Life of Christ through faith as natural Blood cleanses our natural life—a further step by grace through revelation. The third step of grace is a further step in faith wherein we recognize and become a written epistle of the Word for our day, which is the new birth and perfection.

Nine dispensations14. If there is no provided place for intercession after March 1963, why did Brother Branham point us to "one provided place" after the Seals were open? Can we be "born again without the Blood cleansing us"?

The Blood was shed 2,000 years ago. Accept it by faith.

In each of the nine dispensations within the Pentecostal feast that types the Gentile dispensations, the sabbath or new birth was produced by recognizing and becoming a written epistle of the present truth (II Peter 1:12; I John 1:7).

15. Why did Brother Branham tell us the Church Age had not ended, and mercy was not over if the Blood has already been removed from the Mercy Seat?

Our Brother has not taken the Prophet's Message back to the Bible to unlock the meaning of the written Word. Instead, he is trying to create doctrine from the "letter" of the spoken Word in contradiction to Scripture and the Prophet's instructions.

All seven Church Ages are over. However, the world remains in Laodicea, or in a Laodicean condition (Revelation 3:17-20), because the only way of escape is by one Spirit baptizing the individual into the holy convocation of the fiftieth day of the Pentecostal Feast.

16. Wasn't free moral agency for every mortal born, just as it was for Adam and Eve? If the Blood has been removed, then there is no choice to be made, therefore there is no free moral agency?

Our precious Brother is without the mind of Christ because he has not obeyed the Word of God "who has made us able ministers of the New Testament; not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter is death to us and to our congregation, ensuring that without intervention they will not be among the wise virgin, for the Spirit gives eternal Life".

Now that we have the perfect interpretation of the Word of God we should not be struggling intellectually to revive Laodicea by trying to "work out" the "letter" of THUS SAITH THE LORD, but "anoint our eyes with eye salve" by taking the spoken Word back to the written Word "that we may see" to enter the sabbath of the holy convocation of the fiftieth day of the Pentecostal feast. eb429.htm

Last week 299,119,597 US citizens (and 25 million illegal aliens) celebrated another Independence Day anniversary, but were these United States ever free or independent? The United States is a belligerent government under the International law of nations, a corporation, not a country, and the people therein are enemy subjects who have never been sovereign; and since 1787, unless they were the wealthy landed aristocracy with perhaps a Crown grant, neither were their forebears.

What will be the "state of the union" this time next year? Will the Russian invasion of the USA be a fait accompli?

Bombs Bursting in Air

"The star-spangled banner does not fill me with pride: it fills me with shame. That flag symbolizes sorrow and corruption to me right now," writes Cindy Sheehan. "The flag represents so much lying, fixed elections, profiting by the war machine, high gas prices, spying on Americans, rapid erosion of our freedoms while BushCo literally gets away with murder, torture and extreme rendition, contaminating the world with depleted uranium, and illegal and immoral wars that are responsible for killing so many. A symbol that used to represent hope to so many around the world now fills so many with disgust." Full story: truthout.org

Our Lost America - A Collection of Quotes

With great sorrow, at the age of 82, I have seen our America descend spiritually, socially and economically into nothing - a nation now despised worldwide. As a Jew who is familiar with The Harold Wallace Rosenthal Interview (1), and The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion (2), I was hoping our Jewish community would divorce itself from the Zionists who highjacked our religion years ago and uses it as a shield to operate behind. Unfortunately, now it's too late, we are heading towards WW3 and probable annihilation of our 'civilization.'

I am not very proficient at writing, so I am enclosing a small collection of quotes, to illustrate to the younger generation what a beautiful America we used to have.

Very respectfully, Binjamin Herzel

Have You been Hornswoggled?

The people of the United States actually have two national flags: one for our military government and another for the civil. Each one has fifty stars in its canton and thirteen red and white stripes, but there are several important differences.

Although most Americans think of the Stars and Stripes (above left) as their only flag, it is actually for military affairs only. The other one, meant by its makers for wider use (peacetime), has vertical stripes with blue stars on a white field (above right). You can see this design, which bears civil jurisdiction, in the US Coast Guard and Customs flags, but their service insignias replace the fifty stars.

The US government hasn't flown the civil flag since the Civil War, as that war is still going on. Peace has never been declared, nor have hostilities against the people ended. The government is still operating under quasi-military rule.

Today the US military flag appears alongside, or in place of, the state flags in nearly all locations within the states. All of the state courts and even the municipal ones now openly display it. This should have raised serious questions from many citizens long ago, but we've been educated to listen and believe what we are told, not to ask questions, or think or search for the truth.

The Founding Fathers were state Citizens, not "US citizens". Unbeknownst to most people, the class termed "US citizen" did not exist as a political status until 1866. It was a class and "political status" created for the newly freed slaves and did not apply to the people inhabiting the states of the union who were at that time state Citizens.

The rules that apply to "US citizens" may be different than the rules that apply to "state Citizens," and that the rights of one are not the same as the other. For example, the "state Citizen" is NOT required to have a driver license to legally use their car to go to the store to buy food or to attend their place of worship, the "US citizen" is required to have a license to do the same thing.

A Subscriber Writes

The battlefield where the Devil has amassed his greatest forces and is thrusting his deadliest armies is the surrender of our national sovereignty and independence, and the creation of global government! Yes, Martha, the Devil has targeted the United States for destruction, and he is using our own political leaders to do his diabolical work!"

I think what you are saying here, is that the battle is against our own political leaders, who have surrendered our national sovereignty and independence in order to make way for the creation of global government. It might strike you as it does me that this is an odd thing to say. The normal expectation is that a surrender occurs after a battle, when one side concedes that it has lost.

Odd, but substantially true in this case. The one thing you leave out, a fact of the highest importance is that our government has been captured by a criminal gang of aliens with the intention of destroying the traditional America, the America distinguished by the Constitution of the United States. This unspeakable crime has been substantially accomplished with the enthusiastic cooperation of America's indigenous money elites and their satellites, and with the mindless cooperation of at least three-quarters of the citizens of the United States.

The sad fact is that America is a pushover. And, indeed, it has been pushed over in a spectacularly brief passage of time, with hardly a peep of objection from anyone. We have thrown away our Constitution of which we have been so proud, and we have trashed our integrity along with it!

Questions from Africa and America

Question: How can Brother Branham be the angel of Revelation 1:1 that explained the mystery to John? This is one of your quotes in the Sixth Vial:

"Between the Sixth and Seventh Vials Brother Branham the angel of Revelation 1:1, shows John, who represents Christ's end-time Bride throughout this Book (as Ezekiel represented Israel and Judah in chapter 4 of his Book), how the nominally Christian world having forsaken its vows of separation, would become impotent like Samson, and that God will gather those who trouble us to the place of vengeance (II Thessalonians 1:3-10)".

Answer: In the flesh John was on the Island of Patmos in about AD95-96, while in the Spirit he was "in the Lord's day," which is yet future, witnessing events that would not be revealed until our day and after the Seventh Trumpet ends our dispensation (Revelation 1:9-10).

Daniel 12:4, 9 and Revelation 10:4, 7 tell us the Bible which is sealed to "the time of the end" will be revealed "in the days of the Voice of the Seventh Angel." According to Revelation 1:1, God revealed these secrets to Jesus Christ when He opened the Book. Jesus did not know these things during the days of His flesh (Matthew 24:36); and they could not be known until the end of the Laodicean Church Age (Revelation 4:1– 5:7; 6:1). Once He had opened the Book Jesus revealed its contents to the angel of Revelation 1:1 who was William Branham, the angel of Revelation 3:14; 10:7; 22:6-10, etc., and the only man to whom these mysteries were revealed. His ministry "finished the mystery of God".

As John was the only man to whom the angel revealed the mysteries, he signifies Christ's end-time Bride who are the only people for whom the seventh angel revealed the mystery.

Question: What has the corruption and violence of Israel to do with the grand conspiracy overtaking all who dwell upon the earth, and how does this reflect God's plan?

Answer: Regarding the criminal state of Israel we must bear in mind Romans 8:28, "all things work together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose." We should also remember Daniel and Jesus prophesied that Israel would be ruled by non-Semitic, anti-Semitic Gentiles throughout the "times of the Gentiles" which began with Judah's defeat by king Nebuchadnezzar and continues through the present day unto the consummation of all life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:2, 8).

God deals with elect Gentiles as individuals, redeeming one here and one there throughout our dispensation, but with Israel as a nation in the Homeland where every elect Israelite will be born-again on the same day (Isaiah 66:8). So the state had to be restored in the Promised Land before He could "set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of Israel and Judah" (Isaiah 11:11-12). God knew it would be restored by impostors as Daniel and Jesus foretold. Thus all things work together for the blessing of God's 144,000 elect Israelites as they do for His elect Gentiles.

In 1948 non-Semitic Zionists stole the land from its Semitic Arab and Hebrew inhabitants who were killed or evicted. The impostors named the new country Israel so it is a land to which blood Israelites could return. Many returnees have been persecuted by the occupiers; still, their kinsmen will also return as Jerusalem is the one place where God will meet Israel under the blood of the lamb slain from the foundation of the world (Exodus 23:14-17; Deuteronomy 16:1-6; Joel 2:32; Zechariah 14:4-8).

Once born-again, this 144,000 will be martyred by Zionists and their Judaeo-Catholic church. The Illuminati believe they are impersonating Bible prophecy to deceive the inhabitants of Earth who will receive their false Messiah "who comes in his own name" and yield them world hegemony. However, they are fulfilling Scripture as antichrist and ignorance will not excuse their dupes: there is no justification for usurpers of the land or Israelis and other Gentiles serving their fraudulent purposes. This conspiracy will end in Armageddon.

Looking beyond the circumstances to the Promise we see God fulfilling His Word. However it happened, the Promised Land has been reclaimed in the name of Israel. There God will deal by faith with an election of blood Israelites—not Jews—through the ministry of two Hebrew prophets in the office of Moses and Elijah.

That Truth which is Ordinarily Never Spoken

The Book of Genesis records the beginning of sin and of faith, loss and the promise of redemption. It speaks of man's fall from grace and the ensuing beginnings of two races: one descended from the Serpent through Cain, the other from Adam through Seth, and the "enmity" God set between them. Cain's race corrupted Adam's line by miscegenation and idolatry, and would have annihilated the kingdom that was to be Christ's had God not allowed them to cause the Great Flood.

The Tree of Knowledge always destroys innocence as we see when we follow the natural and spiritual lineage of the Serpent, which produced mighty men of renown from Cain to the present day—popes, scholars, engineers, scientists, kings and presidents. In contrast, Adam's believing children are a humble people; it was unbelieving Ham's incest with his father's wife that reproduced the Serpent's seed on this side of the Flood.

Ham's son Cush reintroduced pagan worship or spiritual Serpent's seed from the old world. This was the worship of father, son and spirit, three gods who were all equal. Cush was deified as Baal, Moloch, Zeus, Hermes, etc., and his son Nimrod as Tammuz, Bacchus, Apollo, etc., Cush knew about the coming seed of the woman so he introduced a woman and her seed. When Nimrod died, his wife, Semiramis, deified him and made herself the mother of the son and also the mother of the gods as the Roman church have deified Mary, claiming she was without sin and was the Mother of God. Semiramis called Nimrod "Zeroashta" which means, "the woman's promised seed." Nimrod hybridized the sons of God with the daughters of man, established a hybrid religion of reasoning by adding to and taking from God's Word, and built a tower by which knowledge he believed his followers could escape a repetition of God's judgment upon future sin. Like Eve, Nimrod served the Tree of Knowledge which corrupted innocence.

Brother Branham wrote, "Babel is the original name for Babylon. It means confusion. It was literally started by Cush, the son of Ham, but was brought to a kingdom of power and grandeur under his son, Nimrod, the mighty hunter. Nimrod, according to the Genesis eleven account and also according to profane history, set out to accomplish three things. He wanted to build a strong nation, which he did. He wanted to propagate his own religion, which he did. He wanted to make a name for himself, which he also accomplished. His accomplishments were so monumental that the kingdom of Babylon was called the head of gold amongst all world governments. That his religion gained prominence is proven by the fact that Scripture identifies it with Satan completely in Isaiah 14 and in Revelation 17-18. And by history we can prove that it invaded the whole world and is the basis for every system of idolatry, and the theme of mythology, though the names of the gods differ in various sections of the land according to the language of the people. That he made a name for himself and his followers goes without saying, for as long as this present age goes on (until Jesus reveals Himself to His brethren) he will be worshipped and honored, though under a different name from Nimrod, and in a temple slightly different from the one in which he was originally adored" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, page 182:1).

Since the days of Nimrod the world has been controlled by a small number of family dynasties and religious institutions usurping the authority of God and subjecting their fellow men to servitude. The dynastic system was initiated by strongmen such as Nimrod who conquered all nations from Assyria to Libya to forge a hereditary kingdom, and established a universal religious system wherein he was the supreme deity. A religious caste holds the people subject to their supreme authority and in conformity to the establishment. The Babylonian religious system is now universal although the majority of its followers serve it in ignorance, satisfied with a second-hand religion of vain repetition without faith or understanding.

According to Ezekiel 38:5 and Daniel 11:42-44, those nations once ruled by Nimrod's Babylon will soon be crushed by Mystery Babylon the Great. The forces of her United States image are already drafting their campaign.

Because they are "fugitives and vagabonds in the earth, and those who recognize their true identity would kill them," Satan and his children work in darkness under another name and in a different occupation (Genesis 4:14). The children of God on the other hand, walk in the Light of the present Truth and speak plainly as a witness to all (Matthew 5:13-16; I John 1:7). We are not men pleasers, neither do we seek to gather proselytes to the Cause and have no need to employ false flag operations and 'front' organizations.

Paul admonished, "Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman who need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth" (II Timothy 2:15). If we rightly divide the Word of Truth we will recognize our day and its Message and identify prophecies already fulfilled so we do not impersonate the Word for a day gone by, and discern the blind leaders and deceivers and their blind followers from those who are in the faith.

The Babylonian socio-economic caste system within the subjected mass is universal. No longer chattel slaves, they are enslaved to wages and taxation by usury and inflation because the banksters create credit out of thin air which they loan at interest. Without inflation there would be no wage and salary increases from which to pay interest to the usurers. Fractional reserve banking, like the Trinity, was devised in Babylon.

Babylon was the first of four Gentile world empires, and her religion, banking system, and parasitical imperialistic militarism prevails to the present day. That her design is not inspired of God is certain from the fact Babylon was Satan's earthly headquarters whence his worship spread throughout the earth (Genesis 11:1-9; Isaiah 14:4). God is a separator. He separated Noah and his family from the old world and renewed the Adamic Covenant, but Ham's sin culminated in Nimrod's Babylon. God separated Abraham and made a nation of his seed, but Babylon defeated Israel and Judah by idolatry and militarily, taking her best and brightest citizens captive seventy years. During the Captivity they absorbed the Babylonian system of law, commerce and religion. The new dynasty of Pharisaism (now called Judaism) supplanted the Hebrew faith of Yahweh Torah, Babylon remained the centre of Jewish scholarship for seventeen hundred years and the authority of the Talmud has usurped the Law and the Prophets to this day (Matthew 15:1-9).

After the Medes and Persians defeated Babylon her priest-king fled to Pergamum where he re-established his kingdom. The Babylonian kingdom prospered in Satan's care but after several generations the monarch died without an heir and willed his kingdom and priesthood to Rome. Julius Caesar received the kingdom physical and spiritual and in AD63 became Pontiff Maximus. Emperor Gratian refused to wear the purple robe and assume the title Pontifex Maximus, determining first and foremost to be an orthodox Christian emperor.

God called His Church out of Pharisaism but in the Pergamean Age the Babylonian religion was hybridized with nominal Christianity by the organization of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic system of false worship at the First Nicaea Council in AD325. Influenced by the monks of Mount Carmel, a college of the Babylonian religion originally founded by the priests of Jezebel, Damasus bishop of Rome took the title Supreme Pontiff in AD378. Thus the head of the Babylonian order became ruler of the Roman Catholic church Jesus calls "Mystery Babylon the Great." Satan had united Rome and Babylon in one religious dynasty and the Babylonian rites were introduced into nominal Christianity.

Babylon stole innocence from the post diluvian world. Babylon perverted the faith delivered by Moses and the prophets so that Israel crucified her Messiah, and in these last days she has overcome the New Testament denominations causing them to crucify unto themselves the Son of God afresh. The book of Revelation foretells the end of sin and death in the lake of Fire with fresh beginnings in a renewed heavens and earth. Chapter 18 describes two Babylons: Rome will be destroyed by atomic power and her children cast into a lake of Fire, while the earth will swallow Hollywood beneath the Pacific with Los Angeles. This brings us to the soon-coming judgment of the false church.

Ancient Laodicea formed a trivium where three roads converged and met just as the United States of America forms the point where religion, politics and demon power converge in the image of the Roman beast. Like ancient Judah the United States' administration, laws, morals and religion have been taken captive by Babylon.

Frequent earthquakes finally caused ancient Laodicea's complete abandonment. The Muslim Seljuk Turks who conquered Asia, renaming it Turkey after them, destroyed the city which is now a scene of utter desolation. In the apostasy of the modern Laodicea Church Age, friendly Muslim nations have been forced into World War III, long-planned by a people who are neither Muslim nor Christian nor Hebrew. Preying upon the beliefs of billions of carnal believers, these impersonators who do not believe, plan to act out Bible prophecy with the objective of usurping world hegemony, little realizing they are fulfilling God's Word to the letter.

Although Paul had not seen the Christians at either place his letter to the neighboring city of Colosse was designed for Laodicea also (Colossians 2:1-3; 4:16). It tells Laodicea "in whom" to find "hidden all the treasure of wisdom and knowledge" whereas she thought she had all sufficiency in herself, "because you say I am rich . . ." The preaching of the gospel at Ephesus (Acts 18:19-19:41) inevitably resulted in the formation of churches in the neighboring cities, especially where Hebrews were settled; and there were Hebrews in Laodicea. It became a Christian city of eminence, the see of a bishop and a meeting-place of councils. Paul prayed earnestly in behalf of Ephesus and Laodicea that they might be delivered from Judaizing teachers, who blended Eastern theosophy and angel worship with Jewish asceticism and observance of new moons and Sabbaths, professing a deeper insight into the world of spirits and a nearer approach to heavenly purity and intelligence that the simple gospel afforded (Colossians 2:8-9; 16-23).

The Emperor Nero who martyred Paul was a proselyte to Judaism and ordered the murder of thousands of Christians in Rome (Gittin 56a). One of Nero's descendants was Rabbi Meir who enlarged and updated the Babylonian Talmud. Emperor George II is a Jew responsible for the deaths of thousands of nominal Christians with millions more to perish in the six years following the expiration of his second term.

As Laodicea was the last of the seven Churches, a circular letter to these (the Epistle to the Ephesians which was without individual salutation), upon reaching this city, arrived at its final destination just as "the faith once delivered unto the apostolic saints" (Jude 3) restored by the ministry of Brother Branham, the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, marked the end of the seven Church Ages and time to gather the precious sheaves. "God having made known to us the wisdom and insight of His will according to the purpose which He set forth in Christ: a plan to be brought to completion in the dispensation of the fullness of times (or Church Ages), to bring all things together in unity in Christ, both those who are in heaven, and those who are on earth to be with Him in Christ forever" (Ephesians 1:9-10; 4:13; I Thessalonians 4:14-18).

Like Paul's circular letter, the Gospel has travelled the world from the East to the West and is now ready to return to its starting point in Jerusalem where it will be reconfirmed to Israel in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Daniel 9:24, 27; Zechariah 4; Revelation 11:1-13). Furthermore, the "letter" or cannon of the Holy Bible determined at the Council of Laodicea in AD363 was restored as "Spirit" at the end of the Laodicean Church Age. Do you see the type and antitype? We are at the very end of the Gentile dispensation. Brother Branham's ministry has gathered the remnant into the Capstone for union with the resurrected Church Age saints and our Homecoming after the Earthquake sinks Los Angeles.

As the history of ancient Pergamum typed the Pergamean Church Age, so the history of ancient Laodicea types the now apostate Laodicean Church, and Rome types the United States. Laodicea was originally called Diospolis (in honor of the Roman god Zeus) and then Rhoas, but afterwards Laodicea, from Laodice, the wife of Antiochus II, king of Syria, who rebuilt it. Washington D.C. was originally called Rome, and old Rome was originally Saturnia, "city of Saturn," the Roman god of fertility whose Saturnalia was appropriated by the Romish church and renamed Christmas.

Laodicea was one of the richest commercial centres in the ancient world as the United States is the wealthiest nation in the modern world, yet both were spiritually bankrupt. Laodicea was especially noted for its banking, its manufacture of a unique black woollen material, and for a medical school famous for an eye salve made from Phrygian stone. It was such a wealthy city, that although overthrown by an earthquake in AD62 in the reign of Nero, it quickly recovered from its own resources and soon assumed its pristine glory as will Laodicean United States after the soon-coming earthquake.

Hot springs at Hierapolis, a short distance to the north, sent steaming waters into the streams that flowed southward. Those waters were still lukewarm when they reached Laodicea, typifying the Laodicean Church Age whose lukewarm lack of commitment and compromise with the world were condemned by the Absolute who calls Himself the "Amen".

As God called Abraham out of Babylon and promised to make him the father of faith to a Spiritual nation and Royal priesthood called and chosen out of all nations and tongues of Adam's fallen race (Genesis 12:1-3), He is now calling Abraham's promised Seed out of Mystery Babylon the Great into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation (Matthew 25:6; Revelation 18:1-4; Romans 8:19; I Corinthians 15:47-56).

Brother Branham said, "There is coming a time upon, in this nation, to where this nation is going to exercise all the power that the beast had before it, which was pagan Rome when it become papal Rome, see, that this nation will do that" (Look Away to Jesus, Page 6:45).

Revelation 13:1-8 describes Imperial Rome as a beast or power that rose up out of the sea (which symbolizes multitudes of people). This dominant world power was mortally wounded and in political decline but in AD325 she organized the Universal Church and revived as Papal Rome. This union of the state with the false Church has ruled the world ever since and will rule the New World Order unto the consummation (Daniel 2:40-45).

Revelation 13:11-18 speaks of another beast that arises from the sparsely populated earth and forms an image to her Roman type. The antitype is the United States of America in union with the apostate (once) Protestant churches. Like Rome the United States began as a secular republic, but transformed herself over time into a violent imperialist power that is now uniting church and state.

John, who represents Christ's end-time Bride, "saw a second wild untameable power rise up out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb (representing freedom of religion before church and state powers are united) but it spoke with a fearsome voice like the dragon (Rome). And exercised the full power of the first beast with his approval, requiring the inhabitants of earth to worship the first beast, who's deadly wound was healed."

The earthquake followed by Russia's invasion of the United States will inflict a mortal wound upon the image like that which smote its Roman type. Then the Protestants will confederate and agree with Rome; non-Christian religions already have offices in the Vatican. Through this inter-faith agreement the Pope will restore peace and form a bulwark against Judaeo-Communism. Thereafter the United States will be beholden to and controlled by the Roman Dragon, which in league with the international banksters, will refinance a collapsed dollar.

"The United States does great wonders, so that it makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, (atomic and hydrogen bombs by means of which) he will deceive the whole world, commanding them to make an image to Rome—a totalitarian world government. It will be empowered to inaugurate this new incarnation of the Roman world power and cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. And causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand (signifying willing service in fealty to Rome), or in their foreheads (signifying acceptance of Trinitarian doctrine): and that no man can buy or sell unless he has the mark of the beast's name, or the number of his name. This calls for Spiritual discernment. Let him who has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six".

Rome was a type of the United States of America. After ousting the monarchy Rome became an oligarchic republic with all power concentrated into the hands of the patricians, an aristocratic class of wealthy land holders as in the early American Republic. A republic is a state in which the supreme power rests in the people and their elected representatives as opposed to one governed by a king or a dictator. Res publica is a Latin phrase, literally meaning "public thing" or "public matter".

Beginning with the Constitution's adoption, America has been a republic. But the dominant trend has been to make it into a representative democracy as well, also known as a democratic republic, although the Constitution itself was partly a reaction against democracy. In states like Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts, the situation was becoming far too democratic for the moneyed aristocracy that had, since the American Revolution, refused to share power with ordinary men.

The causes of the American Revolution were many, but for the moneyed class there were three principal aims. They sought self-government to rule the colonies themselves and to further their own interests. They sought to protect the institution of slavery, which had been endangered by a ruling against it in the case of James Sommersett, a slave brought to England by his master on a business trip and kept in custody on board a ship in 1772. He applied for and was granted a writ of habeas corpus by Lord Mansfield who ordered him discharged, saying that no law of England sanctioned slavery. And land speculators like George Washington sought to seize more native American Indian land, which had been outlawed by Britain.

In order to win the American Revolution this predatory elite needed help. Their own rhetoric about freedom and equality led to widespread demands for universal suffrage. In other words, the people began demanding democracy. Even the slaves (white and black alike) demanded their freedom and the right to vote.

After the British were defeated a centralized, national government was seen by George Washington and company not as a method of extending freedom and the right to vote, but as a way of keeping control in the hands of the rich. Several anti-democratic provisions were written into the US Constitution. Slavery was institutionalized. The Senate was not to be elected directly by the people; rather Senators were to be appointed by state legislatures. The President was not to be directly elected by the voters, but elected through an electoral college. And the Supreme Court was to be appointed. Only the House of Representatives was elected directly.

The Constitution left the question of who could vote in elections to each individual state. In most states only white men who owned a certain amount of property could vote. So, on the whole, the first federal government that met in 1789 was a republic with only a whisper of democratic representation. Thus the American people really lost their republic when the Constitution was implemented without ratification by the people. US Courts have frequently told Americans, "You are not party to the Constitution, thus your demand for Constitutional Rights is moot." (Some good reading on the false basis for the US Constitution can be found in the writings of 1870s Boston lawyer, Lysander Spooner).

However, the early federal government was not very powerful and in state after state it became easier for white males to qualify to vote so that over time America became a democratic republic by stealth. At the national level the major steps toward democracy can be marked by amendments to the Constitution, principally the Seventeenth Amendment, which took effect in 1913, making senators elected directly by the voters rather than being appointed by the state legislatures. Although there are now no longer any voter-qualification impediments in the United States the will of the people does not prevail because of the influence of the banksters and lobby groups controlled by the hidden hand.

The military reforms of Gaius Marius produced a trained professional army with standardized equipment open to all classes without qualification and with the promise of land grants upon retirement. These reforms transferred loyalty to the generals, rather than to the Roman state and was an important step toward the Roman Civil Wars and empire.

The Roman Republic ended when Julius became dictator. A dictator is a ruler whose word is law. In Rome when a dictator was created all inferior magistracies ceased. Caesar's dictatorship lasted one year. His murder by Brutus ended the Roman Republic, which became Imperial Rome, an Empire with Emperors. His nephew and adopted son, Octavian, became Augustus, the first emperor of the Roman Empire, which succeeded the Republic.

Likewise there was a further unravelling of the concept of America's Republic when President Lincoln put Congress under the Executive Branch in 1861. Congress adjourned sine die (with no date to reassemble) in January of 1861 and without a quorum. Southern congressmen were absent and Lincoln ordered Congress to convene in the summer of 1861, making congress subservient to the President. Then F. D. Roosevelt put the Supreme Court under the President (Executive Branch) in 1938 by way of the Erie Railroad case—changing public law to public policy. Thus, with FDR, the President became 'Emperor'.

Brother Branham called F. D. Roosevelt's fascist presidency "a preliminary dictatorship that destroyed the American Constitution." And he called the ten kingdoms that will unite to support and later destroy Rome ten "dictatorships" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, page 219:7).

"Under that Sixth Seal, these two hundred thousand spiritual demons, started in Rome, Germany—Hitler. Notice, over in the Bible they received power as kings, but wasn't crowned. A dictator's not a crowned king, just receive power as a king. Oh, the Spirit of God is moving through me now (you know?) just saying something; I don't know how to say it, nor what to say and maybe I'd better not" (Feast of Trumpets, p. 23:173-174). Brother Branham was doubtless referring to the dictatorial forty-second US President who has become a law unto himself whilst imposing "democracy" on his enemies out of the barrel of a gun.

Our bankster-controlled Hegelian sham democracies are placing all nations under elected dictatorships they can control from behind the scenes by the political party system. Brother Branham called democracy "all sails and no anchors." People fail to realize that so long as we have political parties there can be no democracy because the party machine is reliant upon the banksters, and representatives are reliant upon bankster-controlled parties for preselection. Thus democracy is an oligarchic mechanism to appease the people by allowing them to choose their slave-masters. The Oligarchs manipulate economic and social structures to keep their subjects striving to maintain and improve their material circumstances, never allowing these to reach a point where independent thought, creativity and altruism may prosper.

In 1961, the Lord showed Brother Branham a vision wherein he shot a caribou with forty-two inch horns and afterwards, a silver tip grizzly bear. The caribou is the North American rein deer. "Rein" has the same meaning as reign, rule, govern or control. A "deer" is to a cud-chewing animal with deciduous horns. A "horn" in Bible symbolism is a power like a king or a dictator. The US "horn" is "deciduous" in the sense that the President has a limited term and is then replaced. George II is the forty-second "horn".

(President Grover Cleveland served two terms in the late 19th century. When he began his first term in office he was the 22nd President. Benjamin Harrison defeated him in the next election and became the 23rd President. When Cleveland defeated Harrison in the next election and took office for his second term he was still only the 22nd individual since George Washington to hold the office of President. Taking this fact into account, George W. Bush is the 42nd President of the United States).

42 is a number connected with Antichrist (Revelation 11:2; 13:5).
42 Generations from Abraham to Jesus.
42 stages of Israel's wanderings mark their conflict with the will of God.
42 Kings from David to the Babylonian captivity.
42 Emperors in Rome till the institution of Papal Rome (by the reckoning of some).
42 Presidents of the USA to the close of the Gentile dispensation or democracy.

The truth which is ordinarily never spoken reveals that very much of the history, religion, science we are taught to perceive as truth and the foundation of our identity and relationship with the world is a lie.

Cornwallis revealed to Washington during his surrender that "a holy war will now begin on America, and when it is ended America will be supposedly the citadel of freedom, but her millions will unknowingly be loyal subjects to the Crown." Cornwallis went on to explain what would seem to be a self contradiction: "Your churches will be used to teach the Jew's religion and in less than two hundred years the whole nation will be working for divine world government. That government that they believe to be divine will be the British Empire. (That is, the Empire of the City of London as confirmed by the Council on Foreign Relations and its affiliates– Ed). All religions will be permeated with Judaism without even being noticed by the masses, and they will all be under the invisible all-seeing eye on the Grand Architect of Freemasonry" (Jonathan Williams, Legions of Satan, (1781). Also see monie, verona and Conspiracy Scholar's Nook).

The Treaty removed the colonies as a liability and obligation of the king who no longer had to ship material and money to support his subjects and his colonies, but retained financial subjection through debt owed after the Treaty. His heirs and successors still reap the benefit of the king's original venture while debt is now being created at millions of dollars a day. A new war was declared when the Treaty was signed. The king wanted his land back and he knew he would be able to regain his property for his heirs with the help of the world banksters.

On November 27, 1781, just six weeks after the capitulation of Yorktown which concluded the Revolutionary War, the king addressed Parliament: "But I should not answer the trust committed to the sovereign of a free people, nor make a suitable return to my subjects for their constant, zealous, and affectionate attachment to my person, family and government, if I consented to sacrifice, either to my own desire of peace, or to their temporary ease and relief, those essential rights and permanent interests, upon the maintenance and preservation of which, the future strength and security of this country must principally depend." The determined language of this speech, pointing to the continuance of the American war, was echoed back by a majority of both Lords and Commons.

On December 12, the House of Commons moved the adoption of a resolution declaring: "That all farther attempts to reduce the Americans to obedience by force would be ineffectual, and injurious to the true interests of Great Britain."

What were the true interests of the king?

Why, the gold, the silver and the copper.

The new war was to be fought without Americans being aware that a war was even being waged; it was to be fought by subterfuge with key personnel placed in key positions. The first two parts of A Country Defeated in Victory explain how this was done and name some of the main players. Every time you pay a tax you are transferring your labor to the king, whose heirs and successors are still receiving interest from the original American Charters.

As the Marian reforms enabled Julius Caesar to seize power as dictator, ending the democratic republic and opening the way for Empire, the emergency powers of F. D. Roosevelt and subsequent Presidential Orders have enabled George II to become dictator and a law unto himself ('fronting' for the 'hidden hand').

The Congressional Record of 1933 quotes Congressman James Beck: "I think of all the damnable heresies that have ever been suggested in connection with the Constitution, the doctrine of emergency is the worst. It means that when Congress declares an emergency there is no Constitution. This means its death . . . But the Constitution of the United States, as a restraining influence in keeping the federal government within the carefully prescribed channels of power, is moribund, if not dead. We are witnessing its death-agonies, for when this bill becomes a law, if unhappily it becomes law, there is no longer any workable Constitution to keep the Congress within the limits of its constitutional powers."

The truth which is ordinarily never spoken: "The USA was empowered to bring totalitarian one world government into existence, and cause all who do not serve this image of Rome to be killed" (Revelation 13:15). eb430.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Having stolen the land of Israel from its Semitic Hebrew and Arab owners whom they murdered and buried in mass graves or exiled from their ancestral home, the alien occupiers are outraged that after sixty years and perhaps 100 UN regulations against Israel, the exiles persist in trying to recover the right to live at peace in their homeland or have the sovereignty of the diminished Palestinian state recognized. The usurpers of the name and nation of Israel are so enraged they are destroying lives and infrastructure in sovereign Lebanon.

Among other objectives this aggression is no doubt designed to entice people to call for "A UN army . . . able to act immediately, anywhere in the world, without the delay involved in each country making its own decisions whether to participate, based on parochial decisions" (Henry Kissinger at a Bilderberger meeting). All nations would be subservient to this one world government.

Recently France installed a telephone hotline: Dial 114 to denounce a Revisionist. This nationwide emergency number allows government to compile a list of Revisionists. In 1994 German president Richard von Weizsaecker publicly called on children to spy upon parents and vice versa. The predictions of "insider" George Orwell were not his private inventions but protocols of "the City".

In World Revolution, Mrs. Nesta Webster illustrated the parallel between the Protocols, Illuminism, Judaeo-Communism and related organs of subversion. In the 1920s Jewish revolutionary V.I. Lenin who succeeded Adriano Lemmi as head of the World Revolutionary Movement stated Illuminati strategic planning when he predicted, "First we will take Eastern Europe, then the masses of Asia, then we will encircle the United States which will be the last bastion of capitalism. We will not have to attack. It will fall like an overripe fruit into our hands".

This has all come to pass thanks in large measure for the treachery of the best presidents and prime ministers money can buy. Veteran scholar of the conspiracy, Alan Gourley writes, "The NWO has passed its point of no return; it now has finite time to conclude its atrocity! Those able should act while torments are small!" To which we add, flee into Christ before the door is shut, for without there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth!

More on Morgellons Syndrome

I came down with Delusions of Parasitosis in 2001. This bizarre syndrome is also called Delusional Parasitosis, Delusionary Parasitosis, Neurocutaneous Syndrome, Monosymptomatic Hypochondriasis, DOP, or DP for short. Although dermatologists think they know everything they need to know about this condition, and can usually diagnose it in minutes, they still do not know what causes it. . .

Delusional Parasitosis described by Karl Ekbom involves the conviction that parasites inhabit the skin, and this remains the most commonly encountered manifestation of the illness. Those of us suffering from delusions of parasitosis believe that we are infected by parasites. We report feeling them crawling on us, stinging or biting us, burrowing into our skin, and often causing itchy rashes and/or painful lesions that last for weeks or months and leave permanent scars, and making our lives miserable. . .

Comment: Brother Branham said, "The Bible predicts that in the last days, that they'll be a germ warfare? That diseases will break out upon the people, and will fall on everyone without the baptism of the Holy Spirit? But with the Angel or who had charge over these plagues was given orders to touch no one on whom the mark was. Why, how much, kind of teachers have we got to be, brethren, to get the church in order to be in that condition? Immune" (God's Provided Way of Healing, #54-0719A).

Job 19:6, "After my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God" (Job 7:5, 21:26).

Acts 12:23, "immediately the angel of the Lord smote King Herod, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost". (Isaiah 66:24; Mark 9:43-88).

"Put you in a sealed-up coffin, whatever it might be, but yet the skin worms don't have to come from the ground; they're in you. Did you notice Job said, "Though my, my skin worms destroys me." Not the worms of the earth, there wouldn't be any. The worms is in you, ready to destroy you, death working in your mortal body. But when you got Christ, then Life is working in your mortal body to raise you up again" (Proving His Word, p. 32:163).

Another shall come in His Own Name, Him shall You Receive

Somebody wrote, "If the Roman church really believed that Christ was on the planet, it would have to accept Him as its Head and the Pope would have to accede to everything said and done by Christ. But before the Pope would turn over the Catholic church he would dare to challenge Christ by his own measures, and since the Church has acknowledged the infallibility of the Pope it would be up to him to decide if the Christ was really the Christ."

"The Catholic church is really an arm of Judaism whose priests denied Christ two thousand years ago and are still awaiting the Messiah. Rome and her denominational daughters are in a similar position today as the Jewish priests were when they denied Jesus". They are looking for the wrong Coming and the wrong manifestation of His Presence. Israel was looking for the third Coming instead of His first; Rome and her denominational daughters are also looking for the third Coming instead of His second. They are too burdened with the cares of this world to recognize Christ's 'parousia' of forty-three years and their man-made traditions they make the Word of God of none effect to their congregations.

Satan is the sum of wisdom and beauty. He knows God's plans and seeks to pre-empt God. Christ's second Coming is a 'parousia' Coming, not His second physical return. Christ has certainly returned to earth in these last days. The revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963 brought Him back to earth in WORD form (Acts 3:21; I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7). Although some false anointed ones are actually looking for Jesus, He said, "Do not look for a Man: look for Light on the Word" (Matthew 24:22-28).

We see Him by revelation only, for in WORD form He is not visible to the eye. Christ is wooing those who are his by love and free moral agency. Satan's 'parousia' is seen in the coercive operations of an invisible force by which he is taking totalitarian control over his subjects by terrorism.

According to Protocol 1, "Our power in the present tottering condition of all forms of power will be more invincible than any other, because it will remain invisible until the moment when it has gained such strength that no cunning can any longer undermine it."

Protocol 4 says, "Who and what is in a position to overthrow an invisible force? And this is precisely what our force is. Gentile Masonry blindly serves as a screen for us and our objects, but the plan of action of our force, even its very abiding-place, remains for the whole people an unknown mystery".

Protocol 17 says, "When the time comes finally to destroy the papal court the finger of an invisible hand will point the nations towards this court. When, however, the nations fling themselves upon it, we shall come forward in the guise of its defenders as if to save excessive bloodshed. By this diversion we shall penetrate to its very bowels and be sure we shall never come out again until we have gnawed through the entire strength of this place".

By command of the 'Hidden Hand,' the best presidents and prime ministers money can buy are borrowing billions from Illuminati banksters to make war against the abstract noun "terrorism". Oh man, what cannot you be brought to believe?

The New American Cold War

Contrary to established opinion, the gravest threats to America's national security are still in Russia. They derive from an unprecedented development that most US policy-makers have recklessly disregarded, as evidenced by the undeclared cold war Washington has waged, under both parties, against post-Communist Russia during the past fifteen years.

As a result of the Soviet breakup in 1991, Russia, a state bearing every nuclear and other device of mass destruction, virtually collapsed. During the 1990s its essential infrastructures - political, economic and social - disintegrated. Moscow's hold on its vast territories was weakened by separatism, official corruption and Mafia-like crime. The worst peacetime depression in modern history brought economic losses more than twice those suffered in World War II. GDP plummeted by nearly half and capital investment by 80 percent. Most Russians were thrown into poverty. Death rates soared and the population shrank. And in August 1998, the financial system imploded.

No one in authority anywhere had ever foreseen that one of the twentieth century's two superpowers would plunge, along with its arsenals of destruction, into such catastrophic circumstances. Even today, we cannot be sure what Russia's collapse might mean for the rest of the world. . . (The Nation, July 10, 2006). Full story: thenation.com

Matters of Life and Death

Pro-life advocates are concerned about investment guru Warren Buffett's massive donation to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation because of the Microsoft founder's support for abortion.

The Gates Foundation has given the Planned Parenthood Federation of America almost $12.5 million since 1998, including funds to persuade teens to support abortion and to lobby the United Nations to advance pro-abortion proposals, reported LifeNews.com

The foundation also has given nearly $21 million to International Planned Parenthood over the last seven years, where funds have been used to promote abortions in third-world nations and to set up pro-abortion family planning centers in South America, Africa and Eastern Europe. Full story: wnd.com

Population Control

The colonisation of the so-called 'under-developed', poorer countries of this world by the more 'developed' capitalist-orientated countries (primarily European), benefitted the latter greatly—at the expense of the former. Slavery was one of the more tragic outcomes—another being that the colonisers, now imbued with racist perceptions, subsequently set up organisations reflecting this. And the fact that the membership lists of these organisations flaunt the names of very influential politicians/statesmen, business tycoons and bankers, surely calls for a closer look at the matter. And because of America's currently leading role in this matter, it is necessary to recall that she gained 'independence' as the United States of America after much infighting between the colonisers (primarily British) who had invaded that country of Indian Tribes—which led to genocidal attacks on those 'Red Indians'. A story not unlike Britain's colonisation of Australia, with its indigenous Aborigines . . .

On June 9th 1969, Dr. D.M. MacArthur, Deputy Director of Research and Technology for the Pentagon, requested a sum of $10 million from the Congressional House Subcommittee on Appropriations to develop a new contagious micro-organism capable of destroying the human immune system—in order to counteract any possible future virus capable of affecting said human immunity. It would therefore be necessary, first, to create such a virus! This resulted in a 'virus' discovered some ten years later in America which became known as 'acquired immune deficiency syndrome' (AIDS). It should be stressed that this virus first appeared in America, and, as noted by Neville Hodgkinson on the website businessonline.com in May 2006: increasingly complex procedures were taken to diagnose this virus in a reliable manner—"but the basic problem—not being able to validate any of these procedures against pure virus taken from patients—still remains". Furthermore, he reveals in comprehensive detail, that both the HIV tests and statistics concerning AIDS have been manipulated in a duplicitous manner. It would seem that the main beneficiaries have been the pharmaceutical firms!

In April 1974, Kissinger drew up a secret plan for population control called the 'National Security Plan of Action 200' (NSSM 200), which was endorsed by the National Security Decision Memorandum 314, and finally declassified in 1900. In brief, it claimed that population growth in the less-developed countries was ". . . creating political or even national security problems for the US", and it would seek help from the UN Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA founded in 1969)—but stressing that it would be under US leadership. NB: this was at a time when America was being wracked by the Watergate scandal, as a result of which its president, Richard Nixon, had to resign. At the very least, it would seem that—in the eyes of the Administration—the policy of 'population control' stood high in its list of priorities. In August 1974, at a meeting in Bucharest, the UN passed a resolution adopting The World Population of Action as proposed by the US delegation. It would seem that US leadership was indeed essential! The UNFPA was to hold similar meetings at 10-year intervals thereafter . . .

Examples of subverted, occupied, undermined or double-crossed nations lend weight to those who contend a US conspiracy for unlimited global power is well underway. "Between 1945 and now, the US has never stopped being at war with the world. For 58 years, there has never been a single year in which it has not bombed and occupied another country, and in most years, it has attacked two or more countries at the same time," said Professor of English literature, Uzma Khan. "I haven't even touched upon America's non-military, CIA-backed interference in the governance of sovereign countries all over the world," she added. Full story: bilderberg.org

Comment: There is a slant throughout this article. Where the writer says "primarily British" we should read, "Empire of the City of London," an entity alien to the people of Britain: the entity behind colonisation, slavery and the Council on Foreign Relations.

Revelation 6:8, "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" (Isaiah 28:18).

The Fountain of the Water of Life

Throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end time Bride. We know this because these mysteries were sealed unto the close of the Laodicean Church Age when Christ's intercession for the PART-Word saints was fulfilled (Revelation 4; 5; 10:1-7). Then He advanced from the Outer Court to the Holy Place where He vindicated His claim as kinsman Redeemer; entering the Holy of Holies He took the Book of the Redeemed, opened the Seven Seals and revealed their mystery to Brother Branham who revealed them to us. So wherever you read John's name in the Book of Revelation, you may replace it with your own if you are a member of Christ's end-time Bride.

John was imprisoned two years on the Isle of Patmos. There he was caught up in the Spirit to witness a series of visions in which he saw Brother Branham in 1963, revealing the mystery of the Seven Seals as Christ revealed them to him. As commanded by the Spirit John recorded his experience in symbols, but he was forbidden to write what the Voices of the seven thunders uttered for this was to be revealed only "in the days of the Voice of the seventh angel" to explain who was redeemed and how Christ redeemed them in the dispensations of PART-Word that are behind us.

Man was made in the spiritual image of God, a living soul to exercise dominion as an amateur god over this earth, and man fell. Then God was manifest in the physical image of man to redeem man. When the Logos made flesh was anointed by the Holy Spirit as God's true Temple signified by the Shekinah in the form of a dove, heaven and earth embraced one another as the Fatherhood in the Sonship (Matthew 3:16-17; John 14:5-21; 17:21).

After the first resurrection and the Millennium, Satan is loosed. He will be judged and cast into the lake of Fire with all whose names are not found written in the Book of Life: those not of Adam's race and Adam's children whose names have been removed from the Book of Life (Revelation 20:1-10). At the judgment the entire course of human history shall be manifest to all (Ecclesiastes 12:14; Matthew 12:36; Luke 12:2-3; Romans 2:16; I Corinthians 3:13-15; 4:5) and each non-elect individual who's name is sanctified by the blood or covered by Christ's vicarious sacrifice and preserved in the Book, publicly acquitted (Matthew 25; II Corinthians 5:10; Jude 6).

In Revelation 21 the Bride is shown a preview of our reality in the new heaven and new earth. Revelation 21:1-8 announces the ideal consummation of heaven descending to earth and earth becoming heaven, or the perfection of God unfolding His Attributes or changing His form from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts to the manifestation of those thoughts in the glorified flesh of His Family. The theophany or film positive of the mind of God having passed through the developing solution of temptation and trial of free moral agency in this fallen world, is returned in glorified material form to a renewed world of righteousness wherein the old antithesis between heaven and earth has been removed and God and man are forever united.

Satan is disempowered throughout the Millennium as his unredeemed subjects are in the grave, and he can have no power over the elect since we be glorified. Afterwards the general resurrection will loose Satan by raising his kingdom of premillennium sinners who are subject to him. And as the beast and the false prophet led the former revolt against Christ and His people, after the White Throne Judgment Satan will gather a resurrected Gog and Magog, and the nations of resurrected unbelievers will go up against the saints encamped around Jerusalem to protect it. This is not the battle of Gog and Magog prophesied in Ezekiel 38– 39, which is the "hot stage" of the present World War III that ignites after the earthquakes sink Los Angeles and destroy the Mount of Olives at the close of the Gentile dispensation. Ezekiel's Gog and Magog come from the north; these come "from the four corners of the earth." Then God will rain down Fire from heaven that will annihilate Satan and his subjects (II Thessalonians 1:6-9; II Peter 3:7-13). This is the second death, which is the death of the soul. Contrary to the Talmudic doctrine of two souls, the first death is the death of the body. Hebrews 9:27, "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." The second death is the death of the soul after the judgment when the unrepentant souls perish in the Supernatural Fire of God's Holy Spirit (Ezekiel 18:4, 20).

Earth will become the lake of natural fire as the oceans explode sending flames thousands of miles into space, fracturing earth's crust to release lava that devours all of man's works and renews earth for eternity (II Peter 3:7-10). Revelation 21:1, "I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea".

Conditions of impermanence and change have no place in eternity. The old corporeal world becomes nothing and the spiritual world becomes all: "flesh and blood cannot inherit kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption . . . the righteous dead were sown in corruption and raised in incorruption: they were sown in dishonour and are raised in glory: sown in weakness and raised in power. They were sown a natural body and raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. Thus it is written, 'The first man Adam was made a living soul': the last Adam is more than that for He is a Life-giving Spirit. First, we have these natural human bodies, and afterward the spiritual. The first man is from the earth, made of dust: the second Man is the Lord from heaven, God's spoken Word made manifest. Every son of Adam has a body made of dust just like Adam's, but all who are Christ's will have a Word body from heaven just like His. As we have borne the likeness of the earthy Adam, so shall we someday bear the likeness of the heavenly Adam" (I Corinthians 15:50, 40-49).

Revelation 20:11-15, "Then I saw a Great White Throne, and one seated upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was no longer any place for them. I also 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 One seated in the Great White Throne is God manifest in the person of Jesus Christ and His Bride (John 5:22; I Corinthians 15:23-28). The twenty-four elders are the Old Testament patriarchs and the twelve apostles (Matthew 19:28; Revelation 21:12-14). We who partake of the first resurrection are the "holy angels" of Matthew 25:31 who sit in judgment of all those not exempted by the first resurrection (Daniel 7:9-10; Jude 14-15; Revelation 21:12-14). Death brings equality regardless of one's station in life for each will give account as his misdeeds are replayed before the White Throne where perfect justice will be delivered to all (I Corinthians 6:2-3).

All the dead from the days of the first Adam to the Second Advent of the last Adam will stand before us. None will escape Judgment, "the sea gave up the dead who were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead who were in them: every man was judged according to his works. And death and hell were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is the second death. Whoever was not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the Lake of Fire".

A great many books are opened in which are recorded the wrong-doings of sinners whose names were never in or have been removed from the Book of Life. These are separated from among the righteous and the Book of Life is opened, which is the genealogy of Adam's race, and all who's names remain in the Book will be granted into eternal Life (Matthew 25:31-46). Then the sinners will rebel and be cast into the lake of Fire where the beast and the false prophet have been since Armageddon.

As the natural life of the "saved" is swallowed up in the spiritual Life, so the natural death is merged into the spiritual death. Natural death is abolished because it belongs to the changing state of birth, becoming an infant, becoming an adult, becoming old and becoming deceased, This state of constant transition has passed away and been replaced with the absolute state of eternal life and infinity. Death and Hades are cast into the lake of Fire. This is the second or conscious, living death and annihilation of the soul of the sinner in the lake of Fire which devours all evil as it rejuvenates heaven and earth.

This Scripture like Matthew 25 dispels the medieval construct of Satan as a fire-demon and prince of hell with hoofs and horns and a pitchfork with which to torment souls in hell.

Revelation 21:1-4, in a fresh vision "I (your name) saw the renewed heaven and renewed earth, (the final goal of all revelations and prophecies): for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I saw (a preview of) the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven after the Judgment, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great Voice out of the Great White Throne saying, Behold, the dwelling place of God is with men, and He will live with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them. And shall wipe away every tear. . ."

New Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from God is the mother of us all (Galatians 4:26-31). It is the Logos or Word of God manifest in the glorified Bride of Christ. Every tear of sorrow, hardship, failure and loss occasioned by man's departure from the Absolute of God in the first world of uncertainty and change is passed away along with time and impermanence. That first life was necessary in order that we might receive and apply faith to gain victory in Christ and put on His character, so that the first man born of carnal desire and fashioned from the dust could give way to the second man born of the Logos from heaven, and the very memory of former things abrogated.

Now the Lord God will dwell among all whose names remained in the Book of Life, tabernacled in the city New Jerusalem His glorified family (John 2:19; I Corinthians 3:16-17; II Corinthians 6:16; Revelation 7:15). Jesus is the beginning of the creation of God and His Bride is the continuation of the same creation. The Spiritual marriage union has made us one and throughout eternity the "saved" will worship God in the form of Jesus Christ and His Gentile Bride (Matthew 19:6; John 17:21-26; Revelation 21:22; 22:1; Amos 9:11-12; Acts 15:7, 14-17). In the new heaven and new earth God will be with and seen as His true expressed Attributes.

Next God commands John to write, "All you have seen is as good as done, for it is THUS SAITH THE LORD. I will give to him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of Life freely" (Revelation 21:1-8).

When? . . . Right now in this fiftieth day of the Pentecostal feast, the Bride's holy convocation where we eat and drink the seven course meal of the fullness of the Word (Revelation 21:6; 22:1-17), for in the new heavens and new earth we "will hunger no more, neither thirst any more" (Revelation 7:16). This satisfying water is the Message of Revelation 10:1-7, and as the world is anointed by the lackadaisical spirit of Laodicea only the Bride can satisfy her thirst.

As in the Church Ages the blessing is to the overcomer, "But the cowardly, and apostates and those who in practicing abomination have made themselves abominable, and murderers and fornicators, and sorcerers and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their time in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone after which they shall be annihilated: which is the second death".

We read in II Samuel 7 how David wanted to build a house for the God of Jacob but God appointed his natural seed to build the temple. David's Spiritual Seed told Israel the time would come when not one stone of Solomon's Temple would be left standing upon another and directed them to the Temple of His Body anointed by God on the River Jordan. Jesus has gone away to prepare that predestinated tabernacle. His Bride has been baptized into that Temple since the day of Pentecost. In every Age it was constructed from the present Truth. Paul laid the foundational Truth but Brother Branham delivered the Capstone Message which completes the place where God will tabernacle with man.

Revelation 3:22, "He that has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."

Brother Branham said, "This is the LAST warning. There will not be another. The throne room has been set up. The twelve foundations have been laid. The streets of gold have been paved. The gates of gigantic pearls are raised and hinged. Like a pyramid she stands so fair and glorious. The heavenly beings who have prepared her watch breathlessly, for she glistens and shines with a glory that is unearthly. Every facet of her beauty tells a story of amazing grace and Jesus' love. She is a city prepared for a prepared people. She awaits only for her inhabitants, and soon they will throng her streets with joy. Yes, it is the last call. The Spirit will not speak in another age. The ages are over.

"But thank God, at this moment, this age is not over. He is yet crying. And His cry is not only in the spiritual ears of men by His Spirit, but once again a prophet is in the land. Once more God will reveal the truth as He did to Paul. In the days of the seventh messenger, in the days of the Laodicean Age, its messenger will reveal the mysteries of God as revealed to Paul. He will speak out, and those who receive that prophet in his own name will receive the beneficent effect of that prophet's ministry. And they that hear him will be blessed and become part of that Bride of the last day who is mentioned in Revelation 22:17, "The Spirit and the Bride say come." The corn of wheat (the Bride Wheat) that fell into the ground at Nicaea has come back to original Word Grain again. Praise God forever. Yes, listen to the authenticated prophet of God who appears in this last age. What he says from God, the Bride will say. The Spirit and the prophet and the Bride will be saying the same thing. And what they will say will have already been said in the Word. They are saying it now, "Come out from among her now and be ye separate." The cry has gone out. The cry is going out. How long will the voice cry? We do not know, but one thing we do know, it won't be long, for this is the last age.

"He that has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches". The Spirit has spoken. The setting sun is about to fade into eternity for the church ages. Then it will be all over. Then it will be too late to come. But if somewhere in this series God has dealt with you by His Spirit, may you even now turn to Him in repentance and give your life to Him that by His Spirit He may give you eternal life (An exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 364:2-365:2). eb431.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel.

300 innocent civilians have been killed, 1,000 injured and 500,000 displaced by Israeli aggression in Lebanon. One reader notes, "During the Great War (1914-1918) the Arabs were welcome to participate in guerilla warfare against the Turks on behalf of Great Britain. The Arabs blew up railroads and ambushed their Turkish overlords . . . the naive Arabs counted on the "word of honour," which has no place in British diplomacy. Arab guerilla warfare in favour of the British was then totally legal, honorable and sanctioned."

"The fact that Israel was created on Arab soil without the consent of a single Arab is disturbing. Today Arabs are fighting for their homeland and naked survival in the same way as they fought ninety years ago—the only difference being that now they called terrorists, condemned by the "international community" and left to bleed against US-Israel hardware".

Douglas Reed wrote, "In those years the little state misnamed "Israel" proved to be something unique in history. It was governed, as it was devised, set up and largely peopled, by non-Semitic Jews from Russia, of the Chazar breed. Founded on a tribal tradition of antiquity, with which these folk could have no conceivable tie of blood, it developed a savage chauvinism based on the literal application of the Law of the Levites in ancient Judah. Tiny, it had no true life of its own and from the start lived only by the wealth and weapons its powerful supporters in the great Western countries could extort from these. During these years it outdid the most bellicose warlords of history in warlike words and deeds. Ruled by men of the same stock as those who wielded the terror in Poland and Hungary, it daily threatened the seven neighbouring Semitic peoples with the destruction and enslavement prescribed for them in Deuteronomy of the Levites".

"It did this in the open belief that its power in the Western capitals was sufficient to deter the governments there from ever gainsaying its will, and to command their support in any circumstances. It behaved as if America, in particular, was its colony, and that country's deeds conformed with that idea. Within its borders its laws against conversion and intermarriage were those of the much-cited Hitler; beyond its borders lay a destitute horde of Arabs, driven into the wilderness by it, whose numbers rose through childbirth to nearly a million as the eight years went by. These, and their involuntary hosts, were by repeated raid and massacre reminded that the fate of Deir Yasin yet hung over them too: 'utterly destroy, man, woman and child . . . leave nothing alive that breatheth'. The Western countries, its creators, murmured reproof while they sent it money and the wherewithal of the war which they claimed to fear; thus, like Frankenstein, they created the destructive agency which they could not control."

"Based on fantasy, the little state had no real existence, only the power to spread unease throughout the world, which from the moment of its creation had no moment's true respite from fear. It began to fulfill the words of the ancient Promise: 'This day will I begin to put the dread of thee and the fear of thee upon the nations that are under the whole heaven. . . who shall be in anguish because of thee'" (The Controversy of Zion, p. 510).

The leopard has not changed his spots since Mr. Reed wrote those words in 1978. Romans 9:6, "It is not as if the Word of God had failed. For they are not all Israel, who are of Israel".

Crisis Centre puts Tsunami Death Toll above 200

Indonesia, July 18, 2006– Rescue workers have warned they fear many more people may be buried under the rubble left in the wake of the tsunami, which hit the shore yesterday afternoon after an undersea earthquake hit off the coast of densely-populated Java.

The head of the crisis centre at Indonesia's health ministry Rustam Pakaya said the figures were compiled from six districts across Central and West Java provinces. "According to our data, 201 have died, 295 are injured and 125 are missing" . . . Full story: abc.net.au

A Brief History of Israel

July 16, 2006– This is to give some perspective on one of the players in the current conflict– Israel. This is just a smattering of highlights of news stories that don't seem to get much play in the US. It's just 6 months in the life of Israel. I think it is important to remember that after Israel killed a family on a beach in Gaza their first reaction was to deny it. Then they tried to pin it on Hamas. After the shrapnel evidence revealed that they were indeed behind it, they reluctantly admitted guilt. I believe that fits the pattern of how they operate and speaks to their character. The current Gaza situation was not started by a soldier being captured. They are not a country that, in my opinion, represents our values but rather one we generally oppose.

New Massacre in Lebanon by Israeli Terrorists

Michael Theodoulou and Christian Henderson in Beirut Lebanon last night warned it faced "real annihilation" by Israel who had dramatically escalated the violence of its campaign after Hezbollah rockets hit the city of Haifa. "We are facing a real annihilation carried out by Israel," Information Minister Ghazi Aridi said after an emergency cabinet meeting. "Israel is using internationally prohibited weapons against civilians."

He did not elaborate on the weapons allegedly used. But Lebanese media reports said Israel had used phosphorus incendiary bombs and vacuum bombs, which suck up the air and collapse buildings. The reports were not confirmed. Large swaths of Beirut were covered in fine white dust from the barrage. Around the Hezbollah compound in the southern district—known as Dahiyah—entire blocks were littered with heaps of rubble and twisted metal, as fires raged. . . Full story: scotsman.com  photostory

Israel Prepares to Invade Syria

July 15, 2006– As to be expected, the story about a Hezbollah drone hitting an Israeli warship was tweaked this morning to fit the emerging agenda. Senior Israeli army officers said Saturday that the rocket which hit an Israeli missile boat off the Lebanese coast Friday night was an Iranian-built radar-guided C-802, reports the Bangkok Post.

How Israel mistook an aircraft rigged with explosives for a missile, as the Associated Press reports, is not explained. However, blaming Iran certainly fits the picture, as both Israel and the United States are trying to drag Iran and Syria into Israel's invasion of Lebanon and thus widen the conflict, as planned.

In a Market Watch article provocatively entitled Bush Points Finger at Hezbollah, Syria, we learn that our ruler, attending a globalist confab in St. Petersburg, Russia, has blamed Syria for Israel's invasion. Full story: kurtnimmo.com

Of Tragedy and Hope

Since the Fall, Satan has been incarnating a worldwide empire that presents as the acme of wisdom, power and beauty. Meanwhile the Holy Spirit has been incarnating a kingdom whose beauty is holiness recognized outwardly by the Token of the inward Life of Christ on display.

We live in the closing hours of Satan's hallucinatory Eden of lust and pride whose citizens small and great are "the cowardly, and apostates and those who in practicing abomination have made themselves abominable, and murderers and fornicators, and sorcerers and idolaters, and all liars, who shall have their time in the lake of fire: which is the second death".

Soon the Lord will return His hand upon Israel's 144,000 "little ones:" blood brothers born of the same Father while He was in a far country to receive for Himself a kingdom, as Benjamin was born of Israel and Rachel during Joseph's absence in Egypt. He will return to a nation occupied by alien impersonators who persecute His "little ones." A nation in covenant with death, whose refuge is lies and whose covering is falsehood rather than the blood of the lamb (Isaiah 8:14-29).

This will be the time of "Jacob's trouble," the crisis of tribulation when those "little ones" wrestle with God until they yield and receive their new birth in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week. Their adversary, the non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews, are presently raising the animosity of the world against Israel, setting conditions for the tribulation when all nations will come against Jerusalem, ending in Armageddon.

Jeremiah 30:3-11, "the days are coming says the Lord, when I will restore the captivity of My people Israel and Judah, and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it. These are the Words that the Lord spoke concerning Israel and concerning Judah."

"Thus saith the Lord: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. Ask now, and see, can a man bear a child? Why then do I see every man with his hands on his loins, like a woman in labor? Why has every face turned pale?"

"Alas, that day is great! There is none like it: it is the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it. And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of hosts, that I will break the yoke from off their neck, and I will burst their bonds, and Serpent's seed (Heb.) shall no more serve themselves of them: But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them (i.e. Jesus Messiah). Therefore fear not, O Jacob My servant, says the Lord; nor be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save you from afar, and your posterity from the land of their captivity; Jacob shall return, and enjoy peace and security, and none shall make him afraid. For I am with you, to save you, says the Lord. I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have scattered you, but of you I will not make a full end: but I will chasten you in just measure, and will by no means leave you unpunished".

Zechariah 12:1-8 announces a threatening prediction that will distress Israel prior to deliverance. In order to assuage doubt and build faith as to the fulfillment of the prophecy, Jehovah reminds Israel that He is not an absentee landlord but the ever-present Sustainer of His creation, daily stretching forth the heavens and laying the foundations of earth, which, were it not upheld by His almighty power, it would wander from its orbit into ruin. There are no restraints upon His ability continuously to mold the thoughts and intents of the heart in order to accomplish His purposes through men.

The country of Judah like her capital will be a cup of trembling to the invaders but the burden will overcome and injure them as one who has overrated his own strength in lifting a stone too heavy for him suffers injury. All the nations of earth will unite in the siege against Judah and Jerusalem.

Whereas after Calvary and throughout the Six Trumpet Judgments under the Gentile dispensation God appeared to have closed His eyes to Israel's chastisement He now opens wide his eyes to see and provide for the needs of Israel while smiting her foes with blindness so they destroy themselves (II Kings 6:18; Zechariah 14:12-13).

Psalm 87:2, "The Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob." When the chiefs of countryside see their blinded enemy smitten with insanity and repulsed by the metropolis they are assured that the Most High who dwells in Jerusalem will also save them, and in consequence of this trust in the Divine election they consume their foes on every hand as a torch burns up a ripe sheaf.

God chooses the weak to confound the mighty, that all human glorying may be set aside. Thus because of her meek acknowledgment of dependence on Jerusalem, subordinate to Jehovah's aid, the Lord first saves the tents of Judah, weak and insecure, spread over the open country in order that the fortified capital may not lift itself above the defenseless land.

Jehovah will exalt the inhabitants of Jerusalem to a degree of strength far exceeding anything in their past experience. Then the stumbler who can scarce hold himself up, much less attack a foe, shall become a hero like David; and even David's house shall exceed its highest fame of old, and become like the Angel of the Lord, that peculiar manifestation of God who once marched at the head of the armies of Israel, and led Brother Branham.

In the following verses Israel is seen standing alone in their relation to Him whom they rejected, and meditating upon the character of their great crime. One thought occupies all minds, one feeling pervades all hearts. Each tribe, family and individual separates to weep in silence and solitude over the grievous infliction. This is Israel's Day of Atonement when they afflict their souls in mourning for their murder of Messiah (Leviticus 23:27-32; Psalm 51).

Brother Branham deals with these verses in An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages (pp. 36-42) where He speaks of the coming God, Jesus Christ:

Revelation 1:7, "Behold, He comes with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also who pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so, Amen."

He is coming. Jesus is coming. God is coming. The Prophet is coming. The Priest and King is coming. The ALL in ALL is coming. Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly. Amen.

He is coming. He is coming in clouds, clouds of glory as when He was seen upon the Mount of Transfiguration, and His garments were shining as the power of God enfolded Him. And every eye shall see Him. That means this is not the Rapture. This is when He comes to take over His rightful place as World Ruler. This is when those who have pierced Him with their creeds and denominational doctrines shall mourn, and all the people shall wail in terror because of Him Who is the Word.

(This is not the physical return of the glorified Jesus, for His precious feet will not touch this earth until the Millennium when He returns with the glorified saints of all Ages and steps out on the atomic ashes of the wicked (Isaiah 13:9; 51:6; Daniel 2:44; Malachi 4:1-3). On that day there will be no one on earth to "see" Him (Nahum 1:5; Zephaniah 3:8).

Revelation 1:7 speaks of three groups of people. The "every eye" group is the Bride who see Him with the eyes of faith or revelation of the Word for the hour. Three and a half years after our translation "those who pierced Him":

John 19:33-37, "When the soldiers came to Jesus, and saw that He was dead already, they did not break His legs: but one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and there came out blood and water. And he who saw it bore record, and his record is true: and he knows that he tells the truth, in order that you might believe. For these things were done, that the Scripture should be fulfilled, 'A bone of Him shall not be broken' (Exodus 12:46; Psalm 34:20). And again another Scripture said, They shall look on Him whom they pierced".

Zechariah 12:10, "And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for His firstborn".

Note the change of person in the quotation—"Him whom," for "Me whom." In John's Gospel the evangelist is speaking of Messiah, while in Zechariah it is Messiah who is speaking of Himself.

There is a preliminary mourning at the crucifixion. Luke 23:46-48, "When Jesus had cried with a loud voice, He said, Father, into Your hands I commend My spirit: and having said this, He gave up the ghost. Now when the centurion saw what had happened, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man. And all the multitudes who assembled to see the sight, when they saw what had taken place, returned home striking their breasts." But the real fulfillment began when the multitudes at Pentecost were "pricked in their heart" (Acts 2:37).

The third group who will "see" Him will be the foolish virgin and other classes of the saved when they realize they have missed the translation and in order to maintain their names in the Book of Life, and their salvation, will have to surrender their lives in martyrdom. "And all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him".

As I have said, this is not the visual (Gk. 'optomai') sighting of the glorified Man but of the sign of Christ's Presence (or Gk. 'parousia') Coming signified by the Pillar of Fire or cloud of glory. A manifestation similar to the Shekinah or Pillar of Cloud that appeared over Arizona for the Bride on February 28, 1963, will appear over Israel in the near future (Matthew 24:3, 30).

Christ's 'parousia' or second Coming to Israel will be the revelation of His invisible arrival and subsequent Presence with His elect in WORD form as it is for we Gentiles. Throughout the Seven Church Ages the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals, and because the saints had only PART-Word, Christ was a Mediator for their ignorance of the whole. The revelation of the mystery of the Seven Seals in 1963 brought Christ back to earth in WORD form through the spoken Word of His prophet, William Branham, for Christ is the fullness of the Word.

Likewise, Christ will return to Israel in WORD form through the Message of two Hebrew prophets. Christ's 'parousia' is not to be confused with the physical return (or Gk. 'erchomai') of the glorified Man, Jesus Christ of Nazareth– Matthew 24:23-31).

Brother Branham continues, "This is the revelation story of Zechariah 12:9-14. Zechariah prophesied this about 2500 years ago. It is just about to take place. Listen. "And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem. And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the Spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced. . ." Now, when is the Gospel returning to Israel? When the day of the Gentiles is finished. The Gospel is ready to go back to the Hebrews. Oh, if I could just tell you something that is about to happen right in this our day. This great thing that is about to happen will carry over to Revelation 11 and pick up those two witnesses, those two prophets, Moses and Elijah, turning the Gospel back to the Hebrews. [That "great something" is Christ's parousia in the former or teaching rain to Israel, which will be the latter or harvest rain to the Gentile Bride]. We're ready for it. Everything is in order. [In the same manner] As the Hebrews brought the message to the Gentiles, even so the Gentiles will take it right back to the Hebrews and the Rapture will come.

(The Message came to we Gentiles after the close of Israel's dispensation when the Hebrew denominations were apostate, having crucified the Lord of glory. It will return back to the Israelites after the close of the Gentile dispensation when our denominations are apostate, having crucified the Son of God afresh unto themselves. Then Christ's Bride will be persecuted by the apostate church as the early Christians were persecuted by the apostate synagogues).

Now, remember what we have read in Revelation and Zechariah. Both come right after the tribulation. [Brother Branham is speaking of the birth of Israel in one day after the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth week]. The Church of the First-born does not go through the tribulation. We know that. The Bible teaches that.

At that time it says that God is going to pour out His Spirit upon the house of Israel. It is the same Spirit that was poured upon the Gentiles in their day. [By the former or teaching rain: "Faith comes by hearing and understanding the revealed Word for your day," making your life a written epistle of that part of the Word]. "And they shall look upon Me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for Him, as one mourns for his only son, and they shall be in bitterness for Him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born. In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadad-rimmon in the valley of Megiddon. And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart . . ." and each one of the houses apart when He comes in clouds of glory at His Second Coming. [This will be the fulfillment of the second purpose of Gabriel's sixfold instructions to Daniel regarding his Seventieth Week: "To make an end of sin," or unbelief in the revealed Word of God– Daniel 9:24].

Those Jews that pierced Him shall see Him as it says in another Scripture, "Whence did You get those wounds?" and He will say, "In the house of My friends." [This will be the fulfillment of the third purpose of Gabriel's sixfold instructions to Daniel regarding his Seventieth Week: "To make reconciliation for iniquity," or doing what you know is wrong– Daniel 9:24].

Not only will it be a mournful time for the Hebrews who rejected Him as Messiah, but it will be a mournful time for those left of the Gentiles who have rejected Him as the Savior of this day.

There'll be weeping and wailing. The sleeping virgins will be wailing. They represent the church that refused to get oil (symbol of the Holy Spirit) in their lamps (symbol of the body or holder of the oil) until it was too late. It wasn't that they were not good people. They were virgins and that signifies a high moral order. But they didn't have oil in their lamps so they were cast out where there was wailing and gnashing of teeth. . ."

"The Bride will be taken off the earth. She will be caught up before the great tribulation to meet her Lord in the air. For three and one-half years while the retributive wrath of God is poured out, she will be in the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Then will He return [through the Message of two prophets], leaving His Bride in "His Father's house," while He makes Himself known to His brethren. [This will be Christ's parousia Coming by revelation in the office of Son of man to regenerate the 144,000 elect Israelites in one day]. At this very time, the antichrist covenant that the Jews have made with Rome will be broken. Rome and her allies then send their troops to destroy all the God-fearing, Word-abiding Jews. But as they come against the city to destroy it, there will appear in the heavens the sign of the Coming of the Son of Man with His mighty armies to destroy them who have been destroying the earth (Revelation 11:18). With the enemy repulsed . . .

(How is "the enemy repulsed"? By Russia bombing Vatican City State and mainland USA after Rome breaks her agreement with Israel and the Jews in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week, because the banksters will side with Judaeo-Communist Russia. The Lord revealed this to Brother Branham in the last of seven consecutive visions in 1933. The enemy will also be repulsed by an earthquake at the visible physical resurrection of Israel's two prophets. Then Rome will begin to force the mark of the beast and 144,000 will flee to the cleft of the Rock (Revelation 11:1-11).

Daniel 12:1-9 is a variant of the vision that appeared on mount transfiguration (Matthew 17:1-8). Here we see Moses on the Old Testament side of Christ who stands on the River of Life (or in another dimension above the elect) and Elijah on the New Testament side of the river. Christ explains that after three and a half years their revelation of Israel's Seven Trumpet mysteries, which were erstwhile sealed, will be complete and themselves martyred. This agrees with what Christ has revealed to us in Revelation 12:7-17 and 13:1-9.

Daniel 12:10-13 tells us Rome will ban the animal sacrifices Jews will have restored immediately after the earthquake has destroyed the Dome of the Rock at the dispensation change, and establish herself as a new desolating abomination to be worshipped (Revelation 11:1-3; 13:4-18). It also provides a timeline for the outcome of the prophetic ministry in the new birth of the elect Israelites who "endure unto the end" (Matthew 24:13; Revelation 13:10).

After the midst of the Week ". . . Jesus . . . presents Himself to the 144,000. Having seen His mighty acts of salvation, they have come to know His power. But also seeing His wounds and knowing that they had rejected Him even to that moment, causes them to cry out in the agony of terror and fear, even as did their brethren of old when they stood before Joseph, being sore afraid that they would be killed. But as Joseph said, "Don't be angry with yourselves. It is all right. God was in it all. He did it to preserve life." Even so will Jesus speak peace and love to them.

Why did the Jews reject Jesus? God was in it all. It was the only way that He could bring out the Gentile Bride. He died on the cross to preserve the life of the Gentile Church.

Now these 144,000 are not in the Bride. In Revelation 14:4 they are called virgins and they follow the Lamb wherever He goes. The fact that they have not defiled themselves with women shows that they are eunuchs (Matthew 19:12). The eunuchs were the keepers of the bridal chambers. They were attendants. Notice that they do not sit in the throne but are before the throne. No, they are not in the Bride, but will be in the glorious millennial reign.

(Israel is God's servant nation, not the Bride of Messiah. These 144,000 elect cannot be in Christ's Bride because the marriage, our new birth, takes place during the Gentile dispensation, and "Israel is blinded until the Gentile dispensation is fulfilled" (Romans 11:25). There are individual Israelites in Christ's Bride, but the nation will be born in one day—all 144,000 of them).

We then see that when these last of Israel have been joined in love to the Lord, and the enemy has been destroyed [in the battle of Armageddon], God will prepare His holy mountain, His new Garden of Eden for the Bride and His and her attendants [the 144,000 elect Israelites] for the thousand year honeymoon upon the earth. As Adam and Eve were in the garden and did not finish out the thousand years, now Jesus our last Adam and His Eve (True Church) will fulfill all the plan of God.

Oh, how the Bible repeats itself. The scene of Joseph and his brethren is about to be repeated, for Jesus is coming [to Israel] soon.

. . . there is one more thing I want to bring to your attention about this end time. You recall that as Joseph stood before his brethren when Benjamin was not with them he spoke through an interpreter though he knew the Hebrew well. He spoke to his brethren in another tongue. Did you know that the first Gentile Age (the head of gold, Babylonian Age) went out with a message in tongues written on a wall? This age is going out the same way. The abundance of tongues in this day is a further proof that the Times of the Gentiles is over and God is turning back to Israel.

He is coming soon. The Alpha and Omega, the Prophet, Priest and King, the All in All, Lord God of Hosts, is coming soon. Even so Lord Jesus, the One and Only True God, come quickly! eb432.htm

A subscriber asks, is this is paranoia or is it fact? The Jews bombard Lebanon because two captured soldiers are there, but Americans are there also yet Bush has not attacked their Jewish assailants or made any effort to protect them from Jewish aggression. How would he react if not Israel but Iran or Syria that was bombing and strafing American citizens?

"About 55 percent of all casualties at the Beirut Government University Hospital are children of 15 years of age or less but many of the injured have been brought in serious condition. Now we have a 30 percent fatality rate here in Beirut. That means that 30 percent of everyone hit by Israeli bombs are dying. It is a catastrophe."

Meanwhile, Israeli attacks in the Gaza strip have seen 140 Palestinians and one Israeli killed.

"Genocide," an article in the National Geographic Magazine, July 2006, confirms history is written by the victor. In a list of nations guilty of genocide in the 20th century the colonies of the City of London are missing yet Britain and America, to name just two, have the blood of millions on their hands.

The article mentions America's hunt for evidence of genocide by Iraq. Is this a ploy to frame Saddam Hussein and justify US aggression in the absence of real WMD thus relieving George II of any anxiety over the possibility of his indictment for war crimes? Could this be the motive behind PM John Howard's insistence that Australian David Hicks, incarcerated four years without charge in Guantanamo Bay, be tried for war crimes? And is the modus operandi behind the capture, torture and incarceration of all other detainees in Camp X-ray to extract false confessions in order to save the bacon of infidels?

"The love of money is the root of all evil" because most men have their price, and "as it was in the days of Noah" there is insufficient moral glue to prevent the world from falling apart again. The prince of the powers of the air is buying men's souls to prosecute world revolution. In Australia the coup has purchased the loyalty of Federal parliamentarians, police, judges, bureaucrats and the military by privatizing the national communications network—the largest corporation in the Southern Hemisphere and means of people-control by the banksters—in order to top up their superannuation and pension schemes and to hell with the plebs. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The domestic legislation and foreign policy of George II is tipping the balance of power, making the rich richer while returning the rest to serfdom.

In 1958 Brother Branham said, "There's nothing left for America but judgment. They've sinned away the day of grace. Exactly right. If you believe me to be His servant, mark that down".

As Toll Rises, Lebanese resort to Mass Graves

Tyre, July 22, 2006– Citizens are burying the dead in mass graves. The government hospital had run out of room for human remains by Friday. More than 100 bomb-wrecked bodies were already crammed into poorly refrigerated container trucks, and more corpses were pouring in daily. So they built cheap coffins of pine. Bulldozers carved 6-foot-deep trenches into a desolate lot littered with old telephone poles. The stench of death seeped into the warm seaside air as the dead were brought out. Children pinched their noses; the men's faces grew a little stonier. Men and boys jostled on the streets and hoisted themselves up hospital walls to better view the spectacle.

US speeds up Bomb Delivery for the Israelis

The Bush administration is rushing precision-guided bombs to Israel. The request for expedited delivery of the satellite and laser-guided bombs was described as an indication that Israel still had a long list of targets in Lebanon to strike. An arms-sale package approved last year allows Israel to purchase from the United States as many as 100 "bunker buster" weapons, GBU-28s developed for penetrating hardened command centers located deep underground . . .

Israel said its air force had dropped 23 tons of explosives Wednesday night alone in Beirut, in an effort to penetrate what was believed to be a bunker used by senior Hezbollah officials. . . Full story: truthout.org

UN Observers asked Israel to Stop Bombing 10 Times

Jerusalem, July 27, 2006– UN observers in Lebanon telephoned the Israeli military 10 times in six hours to ask it to stop shelling near their position before an Israeli attack destroyed their border outpost, killing four observers and sparking widespread international anger with Israel. . . The base near Khiam came under intense Israeli fire 21 times Tuesday—including 12 hits within 100 metres and four direct hits—from 1:20 p.m. until contact was lost with the four peacekeepers inside at 7:17 p.m., Jane Lute, assistant secretary general for peacekeeping, told the UN Security Council in New York.

Afghanistan close to Anarchy, warns General

The most senior British military commander in Afghanistan has described the situation in the country as "close to anarchy" with feuding foreign agencies and unethical private security companies compounding problems caused by local corruption. The stark warning came from Lieutenant General David Richards, head of NATO's international security force in Afghanistan, who warned that western forces there were short of equipment and were "running out of time".

According to Plan

"Sectarian Break-Up of Iraq Is Now Inevitable, Admit Officials," read the headline from Monday's UK Independent. "'Iraq as a political project is finished,' a senior government official was quoted as saying" . . . At a minimum, the predicted Balkanization of Iraq points to nothing more or less than the comprehensive failure of the Bush administration to bring democracy to that nation. . . Consider the speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, who said on July 13th, "Some people say, 'We saw you beheading, kidnapping and killing. These acts are not the work of Iraqis. I am sure that he who does this is a Jew and the son of a Jew. I can tell you about these Jewish, Israelis and Zionists who are using Iraqi money and oil to frustrate the Islamic movement in Iraq". . .

What we are doing in Iraq today will begat the next series of horrors, and the next, and the next. . . It has come down to this; it will always come down to this, because failure is profitable in the long run for a select few. It will always come down to this until the cycle is broken, forever.

Comment: Anarchy and absolute chaos is the plan for the final stage of world takeover after WWIII and after the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week three and a half years later.

Palestinian moderates have been marginalized, leaving nobody for Israeli moderates to negotiate with. Hamas and Hezbollah have more support among Arabs than ever. Israel finds itself more vulnerable militarily, prone to excess, and dangerously isolated from world opinion. As for democracy, our few allies in the region are dictators and kings. Democratic Lebanon is a shambles. The democratically elected government in Iraq has just denounced Israel, and a democratic Palestinian election empowered Hamas.

Bush said you couldn't negotiate with bad guys. In Iraq, where Saddam turned out to be telling the truth about nuclear weapons and Bush turned out to be lying, diplomacy was forsaken for war. Syria, which gave the US genuine intelligence help after 9/11, was deemed a nation not worth diplomatic engagement. As former National Security Council official Flynt Leverett documented, an overture by the then-moderate Iranian government in 2002 was blown off by the United States. Full story: truthout.org

Comment: Protocol 14 states: "The errors of the Goyim governments will be depicted by us in the most vivid hues. (Who runs the media)? We shall implant such an abhorrence of them that the peoples will prefer tranquility in a state of serfdom to those rights of vaunted freedom which have tortured humanity and exhausted the very sources of human existence, sources which have been exploited by a mob of rascally adventurers who know not what they do . . . useless changes of forms of government to which we instigated the "Goyim" when we were undermining their state structures, will have so wearied the peoples by that time that they will prefer to suffer anything under us rather than run the risk of enduring again all the agitations and miseries they have gone through".

What if Israel had never been Created?

July 11, 2006– "What would the world look like, if in 1948, the state of Israel hadn't been created? Unfortunately, President Harry S. Truman, under the "influence of the Zionists," gave his endorsement to that violence-inspiring project. Since that time, life for the Palestinians has become a hell-on-earth under the heel of Israel's brutal Death-Mayhem-and-Occupation Machine. John Lennon said, "Imagine there's no countries." Okay, let's imagine: There is no Israel!" . . .

Thanks mostly to US President Harry S. Truman and his "susceptibility to Zionist influence," Israel came into existence in 1948. Humanity, and in particular, the Palestinians, have paid dearly for his decision. The land on which the Palestinians had been living for centuries in peace with a minority Jewish population has been gradually transformed into an Apartheid state by the machinations of the Zionist Movement. That Apartheid state, in turn, is today dominated by Israel's Death-Mayhem-and-Occupation Machine.

One wonders: What would the world look like today, if the state of Israel had not been created in 1948? Its improvident formation seems to have set in motion a chain of events, mostly negative, in the affairs of Mankind.

In the movie, "Click," the lead character finds a "universal remote" that allows him to rewind to different parts of his life and to change what had happened. If I possessed such a "universal remote" and could stop President Truman from aiding and abetting the establishment of an Israeli state then it is my speculation, (a theory), that the following 25 propositions would probably be our present day reality.

Comment: Rather, imagine modern Israel was populated by the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob rather than "strangers" of the zuwr, nokriy and toshabh class, and lived in harmony with "strangers" of the ger class like the ancient Israel of God.

Opus Dei Financier found dismembered under Bridge

July 22, 2006– The badly beaten and mutilated corpse of Gianmario Roveraro, reputedly one of Italy's most pious financiers, was discovered "cut to pieces" under a motorway overpass near Parma yesterday, some two weeks after he was kidnapped while returning home from a meeting of the conservative Roman Catholic group Opus Dei.

Three people were arrested on suspicion of the kidnapping and macabre murder of Mr. Roveraro, a banker who had been questioned by investigators in connection with the spectacular €14bn (£9.5bn) collapse of the Parmalat food empire in 2003. He was a founder of Akros Finanziaria, a financial services group, and had helped Parmalat list its stock on the market a decade ago.

The killing recalled the murder of Roberto Calvi, the Italian financier known as "God's Banker" for his links to the Vatican, who was found hanged from Blackfriars Bridge in London in 1982. . . Full story: news.independent.co.uk

Comment: Mr. Roveraro experienced the same death as Nimrod (Tammuz, Osiris, Bacchus, etc.), the penalty of a Master Mason who has broken his oath. Nimrod was slain by Shem (Hercules), and his body divided as a terror to any who might afterwards tread in his steps. The cutting of the dead body in pieces, and sending the dismembered parts among the different cities, is paralleled, and its object explained, by what we read in the Bible of the cutting of the dead body of the Levite's concubine in pieces (Judges 29:29), and sending one of the parts to each of the twelve tribes of Israel; and the similar step taken by Saul, when he hewed the two yoke of oxen asunder, and sent them throughout all the coasts of his kingdom (I Samuel 11:7). It is admitted by commentators that both the Levite and Saul acted on a patriarchal custom, according to which summary vengeance would be dealt to those who failed to come to the gathering that in this solemn way was summoned. This was declared in so many words by Saul, when the parts of the slaughtered oxen were sent among the tribes: "Whosoever comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done to his oxen." In like manner, when the dismembered parts of Osiris were sent among the cities by the seventy-two "conspirators"—in other words, by the supreme judges of Egypt, it was equivalent to a solemn declaration in their name, that "whosoever should do as Osiris had done, so should it be done to him; so should he also be cut in pieces."

The Celtic Hercules was called Hercules Ogmius, which, in Chaldee, is "Hercules the Lamenter." No name could be more appropriate, none more descriptive of the history of Shem, than this. Except our first parent, Adam, there was, perhaps, never a mere man that saw so much grief as he. Not only did he see a vast apostasy, which, with his righteous feelings, and witness as he had been of the awful catastrophe of the flood, must have deeply grieved him; but he lived to bury seven generations of his descendants. He lived 502 years after the flood, and as the lives of men were rapidly shortened after that event, no less than seven generations of his lineal descendants died before him (Genesis 9:10-32). How appropriate a name Ogmius, "The Lamenter or Mourner," for one who had such a history! Now, how is this "Mourning" Hercules represented as putting down enormities and redressing wrongs? Not by his club, like the Hercules of the Greeks, but by the force of persuasion (Alexander Hislop, The Two Babylons, p. 65-66).

Isaiah 53:3 calls the last Adam "a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief." He too saw a vast apostasy in the days of His flesh, and He is seeing a far greater apostasy today "as it was in the days of Noah." As the first Adam saw seven generations of his descendents die, the last Adam will see seven generations of His descendents rise Life eternal through their reconciliation to God by faith in His Word.

President Bush aware of 4.5 Trillion Wanta Settlement

July 22, 2006– President George W. Bush received a letter on July 14 from AmeriTrust Groupe, Inc. and former Ambassador Leo Wanta advising him of a massive 4.5 trillion dollar settlement earmarked for the US Treasury. The letter was addressed to Secretary of the Treasury, Henry M. Paulson, Jr., asking him for his prompt attention in releasing the repatriated offshore funds. Wanta on June 12 entered into a negotiated settlement with US authorities ending his quest to recover an estimated 27.5 trillion in funds first generated by Wanta on behalf of President Ronald Reagan at the end of the Cold War.

After Reagan left office, the money was earmarked for the American people with Wanta as legal trustor, but instead he was backstabbed and the money hijacked by President George H. Bush and President William Jefferson Clinton in an elaborate offshore banking scheme to enrich their own pockets and the pockets of a select group of elite friends.

Executive Order 13397– Church as Governmental Agency

July 25, 2006– The separation of church and state—gone with the stroke of a pen. As of March 7, 2006, our nation's leader signed another Executive Order, which tied the Department of Homeland Security to our leader's "faith-based" churches. Okay, all you non-profit churches out there– you now serve the federal government's primary spying agency. That is now your primary function. You are now and officially an organized den of thieves.

I would feel sorry for the pastors, ministers, priests, and rabbis except for the fact that I just can't and won't. How stupid and positively corrupt can you possibly be to take money in exchange for manipulating your flocks of idiot sheep to the national slaughter? And will you also spy on your flocks and provide reports to your new master?

In exchange for money, have you agreed to pacify and organize your flocks in the event of a national emergency? You certainly have, for you have been ordered to do so. And have you been ordered to offer your buildings, your resources, and your labor forces called congregations to serve your newly declared administrator? Full story: newswithviews.com whitehouse.gov

Comment: Revelation 13:11, 14, "I saw another beast coming up out of the earth (the American buffalo); and he had two horns like a lamb, (representing the separation of church and state powers), and he spoke with a fearsome voice like the dragon (Rome) . . . and deceived all who dwell on earth by means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast (uniting religions); saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image (the World Council of Churches) to the beast (Imperial Rome), which had the wound by a sword and revived" (as Papal Rome).

In 1963 Brother Branham said, "If your church is not in this Council of Churches, in time of trouble they can use your church to store ammunition or anything they want to. And if any man is caught having a prayer for anybody, outside of affiliating with this Council of Churches, he can be shot, as a federal offense. That's right. I got the papers on it from Washington. They're going to force you into it. That's why I've been against this organizational system. That's it. I had to keep quiet about it being the mark of the beast, but it's late enough now till you can know it's the truth" (Just Once More Lord, p. 10:52).

Wrestling for Power, or Earnestly Contending for the Will of God?

Wrestling is a close, personal struggle, a contest of strength and skill between two parties. In Ephesians 6:11-12, Paul denies the contest against "flesh and blood," because Satan is the active power behind all that is human and sinful.

"Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood opponents who are merely Satan's tools but are in a hand to hand struggle against unseen rulers without bodies of their own, against the attacking powers, against fallen angels under Satan who are collectively the world-ruling power of the darkness of the world system of this evil age (I John 5:19), against spiritual hosts of wickedness in heavenly places (so-called because their powers are higher than those of mere mortals, although as Christians we are "blessed with all spiritual blessings in the heavenly places in Christ"– Ephesians 1:3).

Under Satan, demonic forces have ruled this present world since Adam forfeited sovereignty over his domain. However, they do not rule the universe because God is All-mighty, and their usurped rule of the world will cease at the Millennium when "He shall come whose right it is" (Ezekiel 21:27).

Our one weapon of attack is the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. And the Word is God (John 1:1). With the spoken Word we who believe shall cast out devils (Mark 16:16), and following the dispensation change the spoken Word will be our sole hope and stay as it was for Moses before pharaoh, and in the wilderness.

Christ's temptation and the entrance of demons into the swine proved Satan is no mere subjective fantasy; so do six thousand years of history and the daily news. You must learn to know the enemy and his tactics, which means you must know yourself because he will attack your weaknesses unless you acknowledge and defend those places behind the full armor of God, which is the pure Word. Your defense is to remain sanctified, wrestling with God in earnest, irresistible prayer. You must not misinterpret or mishandle God's Word, you must not misplace the Word fulfilled in a day gone by or promised for another people in the future, and you must preserve it in context in order for it to produce the "third pull".

God never changes His mind about His Word because it is the Absolute, so if you apply that Word with the mind of Christ in you it will work for you as it worked for the saints who have gone before you. It was the Holy Spirit not Satan who led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted, and Jesus applied the Sword of the Spirit which was the proven Word of the vindicated prophets before Him. This is why Brother Branham stressed that we must "Say what the tapes say," meaning that we should express the "Spirit," not parrot the "letter." In response to Satan tempting the lusts of the flesh, Jesus applied Deuteronomy 8:3 and got him in a head lock. Satan's next temptation was the lust of the eye but Jesus held him in a half Nelson with Psalm 91:11-12. Upping the stakes, Satan hit Him with the pride of life but Jesus responded with Moses' invincible Deuteronomy 6:13 which threw the Devil to his knees, and he left Him.

That's how it's done! If it worked for Moses, David and Jesus, it will work for you. Satan, who is the sum of wisdom and beauty, offered Eve the same temptations. She reasoned with God's Word instead of taking it as her Absolute. Stay off the Devil's ground. Sin means to aim at but miss the mark of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Sin means failure.

The "third pull" is a promise God has waiting for you. It is His tried and proven WISIWIG vindicated Word. If you have faith you will apply it according to the instructions of His Word. If it worked under particular circumstances in a certain situation at one time, it will work under those conditions every other time.

What are demons but fallen angels? Disembodied souls imprisoned by sin. The lost of Adam's race who like Esau came to a place of no more repentance where their names were blotted from the Book of Life, or the departed seed of Cain who are born "lost" since their souls were never in the Book of Life. The physical Serpent's seed have a soul and are thus human. They have a soul since their first mother was Eve and God's law of reproduction states that every seed must reproduce after its own kind (Genesis 1:11). However they are hybrids and not God's Word, and despite his original human bodily form their first father the Serpent did not have a soul and was pure animal.

Anthropologists trace the ancestry of every human race back to one woman who was the adulteress Eve, but have you noticed they cannot trace us all back to a common father? They try to explain this anomaly by the hoax of evolution which is contrary to the laws of physics and a tool by which the antichrist misleads the gullible into atheism. Foolish men cobble together fossils and bones trying to prove man's evolution from the lower animals. But they will never find "the missing link" between human beings and man because they do not believe God's Bible. That missing link is the Serpent but God has changed every bone in his body.

The vast majority of the world's population is physical and/or spiritual Serpent's seed and irredeemable. Adam's race follows a patriarchal lineage, begotten by a son of Adam and born of a daughter of Adam. Some physical Serpent's seed knowing they are not in Adam's race disregard the race of the father and follow a matriarchal lineage. This is the false proof by which powerful men deceitfully trace their genealogy to Eve who was in Adam's race. However her firstborn son and his descendants are not, thus it is biologically impossible to trace a pure lineage through the matriarchal line because woman does not have a seed.

Dead or alive, God has placed "enmity" between the natural and spiritual seed of the Serpent and the seed of the first and Last Adam (Genesis 3:15). And because spirits do not die that enmity persists beyond the grave.

Some demons inhabit damaged cells and take bodily form as tumors or cancers that feed parasitically from the nutrients in your bloodstream or as cataracts, from the mucus of your eye. Other demons remain in spirit form and torment your soul and mortal spirit.

When you are sanctified and in the faith, the demon that is the life in the cancer or diseased cells must recognize your authority in the Name of Jesus Christ, and is bound to obey your command. Seven vagabond sons of the Jewish chief priest Sceva, whose name means "mind reader," were exorcists, and without the faith of Jesus Christ they took it upon themselves to impersonate Paul's ministry, "commanding evil spirits by Jesus whom Paul preaches. And the evil spirit answered and said, I recognize the authority of Jesus and of Paul; but who are you? And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded" (Acts 19:13-20).

Evil spirits or demons are a perverted form of life, being something that is added to or taken from the pure Word of God which is Spirit and Life (John 6:63; Revelation 22:17-19). As it no longer has a body of its own in which to manifest that life will enter and inhabit a sick mind, a weak soul or damaged cell where its nature or character can take expression as insanity, bad habits, dishonesty, evil, sickness, disease, epilepsy or physical deformity. Demons are helpless until they can occupy your mind, or your body, or take over your soul. They are powerless without your co-operation or some physical, mental or spiritual weakness they can attack and overcome. Satan only has the power we yield to him.

Brother Branham said, "Sight and time is God's worst enemy in divine healing . . . just as sure as faith took it out, unbelief brings it right back again. As faith kills it, unbelief resurrects it. Jesus said, "When the unclean spirit's gone out of a man, he walks in dry places and he returns back with seven other devils. And if the good man of the house isn't standing there to protect that door, he will come right on in. And the good man of your house is your faith, say, "Stay away." That's it".

The demon is the life living in those corrupted cells which multiply as they feed upon your life. When the demon is cast out, the growth is dead, but those dead cells are trapped within your body. With their life cast out they will shrink for about three days, just as the human or animal body shrinks for the first three days after death. The patient begins to feel well but after the first seventy-two hours those cells begin to swell as putrefaction sets in. Then the patient feels sick with aches and pains and a fever as his bloodstream works to neutralize the impurities and clear the alien carcass from within his own body.

The symptoms of these new phenomena bring your body and spirit into conflict with faith in your soul, causing you to doubt God's Word. Here faith needs to take its stand upon the promise of the spoken Word which is stronger than the physical symptoms because this sickness is the best indication of your healing.

Divine healing is not a miracle. With miracles the evil spirit and the body in which it lived are both instantly banished. In the film, Deep Calleth unto Deep you can witness the Lord remove a goiter from the throat of a lady in response to her faith and Brother Branham's prayer. In Divine healing the spirit is cast out in obedience to the Word of God and faith, but its body or the cells it inhabited have still to be cleansed from your body by the bloodstream in the process of time.

The armor of God consists of the attributes of His Spirit—truth, righteousness, the preparation of the Gospel of peace, faith, salvation and the spoken Word or "third pull." The fruits of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance, likewise are derivatives of the Supernatural unseen promises of God's Word, not our natural sense of sight, hearing, taste, scent, touch, conscience, memory, reasoning, affection and imagination by which we contact the material world.

Christ's Bride is a Supernatural people begotten of the unseen Spirit taken from the side of Jesus Christ on Calvary and expressing His attributes. As God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them, now we are made the righteousness of God in Christ that we might continue His ministry of reconciliation by the spoken Word.

Faith has no substitute. Faith is communion, a revelation from God to you personally. Faith is the reason for the hope within your heart unless that faith is in your head and intellectual (Galatians 5:5; I Peter 3:15). We who are in the faith will be accountable for the manner in which we have invested this treasure entrusted to us for the increase of the Family of God, so discern the spirits and speak the Word of God. "Jesus Christ gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our father" (Galatians 1:4). Now we have been given the ministry of reconciling others to God by our chaste conduct and the spoken Word.

Ephesians 2:2, "Whereas you once went along with the crowd and conducted yourselves according to the system of this present world (as opposed to the world that is to come– I Corinthians 2:6, 12), following Satan, chief ruler of demonic powers in the fourth dimension, those seducing spirits still working in the children of disobedience (as in former times they worked in you)—men who are not disobedient merely by accident but are essentially sons of disobedience itself, (that is, not natural, but spiritual Serpent's seed– Matthew 3:7), of whom Satan is prince".

The powers of the air or fourth dimension are the embodiment of that evil spirit which is the ruling principle of unbelievers whose potency is displayed in the disobedience of those yielded to it. Deuteronomy 32:20, "children in whom is no faith" (Isaiah 30:9; 57:4). II Thessalonians, 1:8, "who know not God and obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ".

The objective of Satan and the children of disobedience is power. As the rider of the white horse under the First Seal, Satan gained spiritual power culminating in the organization of the Roman Catholic false church as the church of state or empire. Under the Second Seal he rode his red horse enforcing his religion upon the empire thus accumulating spiritual power, and under the Third Seal he went forth on his black horse to garner demon power. Now the world system is approaching its climax we see Satan riding his pale green horse and identified as Death as he unites all three powers in one totalitarian world government. Soon he will incarnate the pope of Rome, making war upon God and His saints and blaspheming the Christian Church at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the sky. The military forces of an apostate and bankrupt United States will enforce his ungodly edicts (Daniel 11:38; Revelation 13:11-18).

Daniel 2:31-45; 9:27 as well as Revelation 17 and 18 foretold how a revived Roman Empire will take power over nominal Christianity and all other religions. By "flatteries" it has already established an accommodation with the world's religions (Daniel 11:32-39).

Interviewed on his book, Windswept House, Malachi Martin said, "I think that from the very start John Paul II for whatever reasons has sought after one thing and one thing only. The formation of what now appears to be in his mind, a universal assemblage of Catholics at the core; grouped with them the Protestant denominations, sects and churches; grouped around them believing Jews, believing Muslims, believing Hindus, believing Buddhists. And that would be a universal religious assembly that could have a powerful dynamic kick in civilization and in solving the problems of men and women today. That is the only thing you can really say this man has sought heart and soul and body with all his travelling. When he went to churches all over the world, member churches of the Catholic Church in all the countries, he was bolstering the reputation of the papacy and he was speaking Catholic dogma, Catholic belief, Catholic morals. But in reality he was reaching out to everybody. He wanted to make friends with everybody."

"And what about the widespread homosexuality, pedophilia and satanic rituals in the Church, common knowledge he avers known to all Vatican insiders? Since as he wrote, Christ is no longer honored in the tabernacle, what does he think will happen?"

"Once the tabernacle is emptied of Christ's real presence, then the Church ceases to be holy and therefore it's going to be entered by the opposite power, Lucifer," says Martin. "And this is taking place now. Not widespread, but it is taking place. There's no doubt about that."

"So will the Church fall on its own?"

"It's disintegrating slowly," says Martin. "As an organization, it's being marginalized sociopolitically and culturally. And religiously, it's weakening and decaying, obsolescing . . ."

"If you look at any country today there are three identifiable components of that State. One, the government. Two, there is industry. Third, there are what we call NGOs, the non-governmental organizations. That's everything from Mothers Against Drunk Drivers to the Catholic Church. And they're just simply lumped together, voluntary associations with as much power as they can grasp but of no special importance. Now fifty or seventy years ago, when an ethical or moral question arose, people and governments looked to the churches. Now they don't any longer."

Satan and the children of disobedience will reveal their political power after the earthquakes sinks Los Angeles and the US dollar, splits the mount of Olives, destroying the Dome of the Rock and igniting the "hot" stage of World War III, which despite their provocative lies and the murder of millions of innocent Muslims, the City of London has been unable to light because it is not yet God's time (Ezekiel 38:4).

II Thessalonians 2:6-12, "You know that the Holy Spirit is restraining Satan from being revealed in the man of sin until it is His time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work: only the Holy Spirit will restrain until He leaves this earth in the translation of Christ's end-time Bride. Then that lawless man of sin will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus shall burn up with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His 'parousia' Coming to Israel. This lawless one will come by the activity of Satan with great power, false signs and lying wonders, and with limitless deceit of unrighteousness for those who, because they received not the love of the truth that they might be saved, are bound for destruction. And for this reason God sends strong delusion upon them to make them believe the falsehood: (as they have believed the sinking of the USS Maine was caused by Spain rather than sabotage, the "unprovoked" attack upon the Lusitania, Japan's "surprise" attack upon Pearl Harbor, the Holocaust, "Cold War," Mr. Hussein's non-existent WMD, 9/11, and numerous other lying delusions), so that all who have not believed the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness may be damned".

Satan has employed these hoaxes and deceptions to "train" those without the Spirit to react like Pavlov's dogs.

This brief World War III will see Russia's successful invasion of mainland USA. Heading a coalition of the world's religions, the pope will order the withdrawal of Russian troops, restore world peace and strike a deal with the self-styled Jews to refinance the US dollar with gold backing. Thereupon the peoples of the world will implore him to become president of one totalitarian world government.

The earthquakes will signify the sounding of Israel's Seventh Trumpet that ends the Gentile dispensation. Satan will be cast down to earth to incarnate the pope of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church. His demons will make war against the saints in the manifestation of the Sons of God, against Israel's two prophets, their 144,000 elect and the different classes of the "saved".

The motivation behind Judaeo-Roman Catholicism, Judaeo-Capitalism, Judaeo-Communism and Zionism is Satan's lust for power. These "isms" all stem from Pharisaism, the daughter of ancient Babylon and are all supported by the power of fiat money and Babylon's usurious fractional reserve banking system (Matthew 23:35; Revelation 18:24).

This Satanic cabal of religious, political and demonic power represents the fruit of one tree, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. In the Garden of Eden it opposed the Tree of Life and seduced Eve to usurp power which it is God's sovereign authority and sole prerogative to delegate.

Meyer Amschel Rothschild of Germany once said: "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws . . . enforced unemployment and hunger, imposed on the masses because of the power we have to create shortages of food, will create the right of Capital to rule more surely than it was given to the real aristocracy."

Speaking of world government he said, "It will be necessary to establish huge monopolies, reservoirs of such colossal riches that even the largest fortunes of the goiim will depend on us to such an extent that they will go to the bottom together with the credit of their governments on the day after the great political smash."

Today the five-pointed pentagram representing the five Rothschild brothers with their banks, which possess the greatest accumulation of wealth ever known, emblazons the flags of the United States, Russia and other subject nations. Can you say Federal Reserve?

Churchill knew Rothschild's plan to return society to serfdom by retarding industry and encouraging debt. So did President Carter who endorsed the Global 2000 and Global Future Reports which spell out US policy intent.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is the front organization and debt collector for Rothschild's heirs and kinsmen whom Brother Branham called "Wall Street crooks." The colonial troops of the United States will be their enforcers.

In his account of the questioning of Christian G. Rakovsky, one of the Jewish founders of Soviet Judaeo-Communism, by Soviet foreign agent Gavriil Gavrillovitch (the French Jew Rene Duval), Dr. J. Landowsky records:

"The understanding of how the financial International has gradually, right up to our epoch, become the master of money, this magical talisman, which has become for people that which God and the nation had been formerly, is something which exceeds in scientific interest even the art of revolutionary strategy, since this is also an art and also a revolution. I shall explain it to you. Historiographers and the masses, blinded by the shouts and the pomp of the French revolution, the people, intoxicated by the fact that it had succeeded in taking all power from the King and the privileged classes, did not notice how a small group of mysterious, careful and insignificant people had taken possession of the real Royal power, the magical power, almost divine, which it obtained almost without knowing it. The masses did not notice that the power had been seized by others and that soon they had subjected them to a slavery more cruel than the King, since the latter, in view of his religious and moral prejudices, was incapable of taking advantage of such a power. So it came about that the supreme Royal power was taken over by persons, whose moral, intellectual and cosmopolitan qualities did allow them to use it. It is clear that these were people who had never been Christians, but cosmopolitans.

They had acquired for themselves the real privilege of coining money. . . It is clear that in your imagination there immediately appeared pictures of real money of metal and paper. But that is not so. Money is now not that, real circulating coin is a true anachronism. If it still exists and circulates, then it is only thanks to atavism, only because it is convenient to maintain the illusion, a purely imaginary fiction for the present day.

If you like, this is perhaps brilliant, but it is not a paradox. I know—and that is why you smiled—that States still coin money on pieces of metal or paper with Royal busts or national crests; well, so what? A great part of the money circulating, money for big affairs, as representative of all national wealth, money, yes money—it was being issued by those few people about whom I had hinted. Titles, figures, cheques, promissory notes, endorsements, discount, quotations, figures without end flooded States like a waterfall. What are in comparison with these the metallic and paper moneys? . . . Something devoid of influence, some kind of minimum in the face of the growing flood of the all-flooding financial money. They, being the most subtle psychologists, were able to gain even more without trouble, thanks to a lack of understanding. In addition to the immensely varied different forms of financial moneys, they created credit-money with a view to making its volume close to infinite. And to give it the speed of sound . . . it is an abstraction, a being of thought, a figure, number; credit, faith. . .

Do you understand already? . . . Fraud; false moneys, given a legal standing . . . , using other terminology, so that you should understand me. Banks, the stock exchanges and the whole world financial system—is a gigantic machine for the purpose of bringing about unnatural scandals, according to Aristotle's expression; to force money to produce moneys—that is something that if it is a crime in economics, then in relations to finances it is a crime against the criminal code, since it is usury. I do not know by what arguments all this is justified: by the proposition that they receive legal interest. . . Even accepting that, and even that admission is more than is necessary, we see that usury still exists, since even if the interest received is legal, then it invents and falsifies the non-existent capital. Banks have always by way of deposits or moneys in productive movement a certain quantity of money which is five or perhaps even a hundred times greater than there are physically coined moneys of metal or paper. I shall say nothing of those cases when the credit-moneys, i.e. false, fabricated ones, are greater than the quantity of moneys paid out as capital. Bearing in mind that lawful interest is fixed not on real capital but on non-existing capital, the interest is illegal by so many times as the fictional capital is greater than the real one.

Bear in mind that this system, which I am describing in detail, is one of the most innocent among those used for the fabrication of false money. Imagine to yourself, if you can, a small number of people, having unlimited power through the possession of real wealth, and you will see that they are the absolute dictators of the stock-exchange; and as a result of this also the dictators of production and distribution and also of work and consumption. If you have enough imagination then multiply this by the global factor and you will see its anarchical, moral and social influence, i.e. a revolutionary one. . . Do you now understand?

Is it not a miracle that a wooden bench has been transformed into a temple? And yet such a miracle has been seen by people a thousand times, and they did not bat an eyelid, during a whole century. Since this was an extraordinary miracle that the benches on which sat the greasy usurers to trade in their moneys, have now been converted into temples, which stand magnificently at every corner of contemporary big towns with their heathen colonnades, and crowds go there with a faith which they are already not given by heavenly gods, in order to bring assiduously their deposits of all their possessions to the god of money, who, they imagine, lives in the steel safes of the bankers, and who is preordained, thanks to his divine mission to increase the wealth to a metaphysical infinity" (Des Griffin, Fourth Reich of the Rich, p. 273-275).

In Newsletter 404 we reported: On March 23, 2006, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System will cease publication of the M3 monetary aggregate. The Board will also cease publishing the following components: large-denomination time deposits, repurchase agreements, and Eurodollars. The Board will continue to publish institutional money market mutual funds as a memorandum item in this release (federalreserve.gov). So you will never know the ratio of credit created out of thin air to Federal Reserve Notes printed on worthless paper.

Now the temples of usury are disappearing underground in fiber optic cables as metal coinage and paper notes give place to invisible electronic banking and remote control of people and property so "that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is the name of the beast, or the number of his name" (Revelation 13:17).

Thus some have prevailed upon Satan for the power of Death over men, while some have wrestled to yield to the Will of God with eternal Life. eb433.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

When the Pharisees tempted Jesus, He replied "but from the beginning it was not so," indicating that their teachers were teaching error. So is it within the circle of this Message today. Yet God is not the author of confusion but of rest: the mystery of God was finished forty-three years ago and we stand at the climax of the Gentile dispensation. In order to rightly divide God's Word we need to distinguish "the times of the Gentiles" from the Gentile dispensation, and "those who say they are Jews" from Israelites descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The answers are in God's Holy Bible.

As you read these words, alien invaders who have stolen the land and identity of the Israelites are slaughtering innocent Lebanese civilians. Why would they sell their soul to Satan and risk their lives to kill strangers? Many are sincere men and women who know not who they really are, and are not, being deceived by the lies of Pharisees: lies that will steal salvation from those of them who are in Adam's race.

Under the heading "A brief History of the Terms for Jew" on page 3 of the 1980 edition of the Jewish Almanac, we read: "Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an Ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew." That ought to be a signal for seekers of Truth desiring eternal Life.

All Jewish and every other encyclopaedia declares the truth of Romans 9:6. Your own Bible, Jewish historians and Brother Branham also teach this truth. Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you." These so-called Jews have been deceived by their spiritual leaders. How about you Brother and Sister Seed? Have you been deceived by your pastor? Or is slothfulness causing you to be a foolish virgin? Simply browsing the articles in this Newsletter is not sufficient; you must follow the links, study the Christian resources on our Church Website, and prove all things in your own Bible. You may discover Jesus Christ is not the Man you imagine.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Iran's Dirty Bombs Located!!!

July 25, 2006– The above headline might have appeared across the globe had Bulgarian border guards not been a little more vigilant. And what's the betting that the intercepted shipment of nuclear materials reported below, was sent with the approval and maybe even organised by Britain's intelligence services?

That way they could accuse Iran of trying to build Weapons of Mass Destruction, and unlike Saddam's WMD, not be embarrassed later when they were found to be non-existent. Instead, they could point to the exact location of Iran's WMD and use it to justify any number of scenarios, from sanctions to all out war. Ed.

Outcry as border guards seize British 'dirty bomb' lorry heading for Iran

The Peculiar Disappearance of the War in Iraq

"CNN will surely remind us today that it is Day 19 of the Israel-Hezbollah war—now branded as Crisis in the Middle East—but you won't catch anyone saying it's Day 1,229 of the war in Iraq. On the Big Three networks' evening newscasts, the time devoted to Iraq has fallen 60 percent between 2003 and this spring, as clocked by the television monitor, the Tyndall Report. The steady falloff in Iraq coverage isn't happenstance. It's a barometer of the scope of the tragedy," writes Frank Rich. Full story: truthout.org

Comment: War in Iraq has disappeared from the Australian broadsheets. George II is sacrificing Lebanese men, women and children to divert media attention from the quagmire in Iraq. How many millions of lives would this 21st century Esau have on his conscience . . . were it not seared with a hot iron?

Who Are the Real Terrorists in the Middle East?

Human Rights:

The basic rule is article 48 of Protocol I of 1977 additional to the 4th Geneva Convention, which obliges belligerents to distinguish between the civilian population and combatants, and article 51 which prohibits indiscriminate attacks.

Articles 146 and 147 of the 4th Geneva Convention and article 85 of Protocol I require that States themselves repress and punish breaches. The international community must demand that Israel punish its commanders and that the US stop supplying arms to Israel.

Under international law, the US is an accomplice in war crimes and crimes against humanity, including attacks on civilians.

Who Are the Real Terrorists in the Middle East?

Silence about the immoral core of Israeli statehood makes us all complicit in breeding the terrorism that threatens a catastrophe which could tear the world apart . . . The very creation of Israel required an act of terror. In 1948, most of the non-Jewish indigenous people were ethnically cleansed from the part of Palestine which became Israel. This action was carefully planned. Without it, no state with a Jewish majority and character would have been possible. Since 1948, the "Israeli Arabs," those Palestinians who avoided expulsion, have suffered continuous discrimination. Indeed, many have been internally displaced, ostensibly for "security reasons," but really to acquire their lands for Jews. Full story: informationclearinghouse.info

Indulging Folly

It seems astonishing that the world is still watching rather than acting two weeks after the Lebanon war began . . . The US alliance with Israel has been a fact of international life for decades, but seldom has Washington acted so blatantly in support of the country and with such disregard for the rest of the international community. By blocking diplomatic action, the US has alienated the Arab world even further. And Britain, shamefully, has been a party to this. Full story: guardian.co.uk

Comment: This Machiavellian masterstroke is necessary to generate irreconcilable hatred between the political Zionists and innocent Islam, both cannon fodder in this long-planned World War III the 'hidden hand' is impatient to transform to the "hot" stage and lever for delivering world hegemony via the 'front' of the Roman Catholic church and the enactment of Ezekiel 38-39. To guarantee bloodshed in Israel and the Occupied Territories, Israel's high court has upheld a request by the Temple Mount Terrorists for the right to enter the Al-Aqsa mosque compound.

What is this Carnage really all About?

The Rothschild cabal could care less about Jews. To them they are a means to an end for global control. The first leader of Israel, David Ben-Gurion, summed up this mind set when he said:

'If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, and only half by transferring them to the Land of Israel, I would choose the latter, for before us lies not only the numbers of these children but the historical reckoning of the people of Israel.' (Quoted on pp 855-56 in Shabtai Teveth's Ben-Gurion).

The 'Jewish homeland' was from the start a Rothschild fiefdom orchestrated through a global secret society network of interbreeding families known as the Illuminati. The goal of these families is domination of the planet through a world government dictatorship, a world army and a micro-chipped population . . .

The Rothschilds funded the early European settlers in Israel, manipulated events in Germany that led to the horrific treatment of Jewish people and others, and then used that as the excuse to reach their long-term goal—a Rothschild-Illuminati stronghold in Palestine using the Jewish population as fodder to be used and abused as necessary. They called their plan 'Zionism'. This term is often used as a synonym for Jewish people when it is actually a political movement devised and promoted through the House of Rothschild and opposed by many Jews. . .

Backpedaling at the IRS

July 28, 2006– The New York Times reported this week that the Bush administration is eliminating almost half of the lawyers at the Internal Revenue Service who audit the tax returns of the wealthiest Americans. These lawyers specialize in auditing the returns of those who are subject to gift and estate taxes. Since taking office in 2001 President Bush has consistently lobbied Congress to repeal the estate tax, but he hasn't been able to get Congress to go along with him. Instead, the Bush administration has now decided to force the IRS to backpedal and circumvent the tax laws.

The IRS will cut 157 of the agency's 345 estate tax lawyers and 17 of the support staff personnel assigned to them. Six of the IRS lawyers who are likely to be laid off acknowledged that the cuts were simply the latest moves behind the scenes at the IRS to protect people with political connections and complex tax-avoidance schemes from detailed audits. Kevin Brown, an IRS deputy commissioner, says the agency is auditing enough returns to catch cheaters. But during the Clinton administration, the IRS stated that cheating by affluent Americans was one of its biggest problems. Full story: truthout.org

Comment: In staging a coup it is essential the plotters purchase the loyalty of the instruments of power and influence—the plutocracy, media, judges, police and the military.

Bush Submits New Terror Detainee Bill

Washington, July 28 2006– US citizens suspected of terror ties might be detained indefinitely and barred from access to civilian courts under legislation proposed by the Bush administration, say legal experts reviewing an early version of the bill. A 32-page draft measure is intended to authorize the Pentagon's tribunal system, established shortly after the 2001 terrorist attacks to detain and prosecute detainees captured in the war on terror. The tribunal system was thrown out last month by the Supreme Court.

Administration officials, who declined to comment on the draft, said the proposal was still under discussion and no final decisions had been made. . . Full story: truthout.org

Comment: Earthquakes will soon rock earth and the heavens; volcanoes will erupt, and tidal waves shall pound the shores. Satan will be cast out, the first resurrection will commence as martial law is invoked worldwide. Christ's Bride will be a hunted and persecuted little group and the nations will fill their internment camps—but not with Christ's Bride.

The Secretive Fight against Bioterror

July 30, 2006– The government is building a highly classified facility to research biological weapons, but its closed-door approach has raised concerns.

On the grounds of a military base an hour's drive from the capital, the Bush administration is building a massive biodefense laboratory unlike any seen since biological weapons were banned 34 years ago.

The heart of the lab is a cluster of sealed chambers built to contain the world's deadliest bacteria and viruses. There, scientists will spend their days simulating the unthinkable: bioterrorism attacks in the form of lethal anthrax spores rendered as wispy powders that can drift for miles on a summer breeze, or common viruses turned into deadly superbugs that ordinary drugs and vaccines cannot stop . . .

Already, they say, there is evidence abroad of what some are calling a "global biodefense boom." In the past five years, numerous governments, including some in the developing world—India, China and Cuba among them—have begun building high-security labs for studying the most lethal bacteria and viruses.

Brother Branham said, "Did you know that the Bible predicts that in the last days, that they'll be a germ warfare? That diseases will break out upon the people, and will fall on everyone without the baptism of the Holy Spirit? But with the Angel or who had charge over these plagues was given orders to touch no one on whom the mark was" (God's Provided Way of Healing, #54-0719A).

A Primeval Tide of Toxins

July 30 2006– Runoff from modern life is feeding an explosion of primitive organisms. This "rise of slime," as one scientist calls it, is killing larger species and sickening people.

Morton Bay, Australia—The fireweed began each spring as tufts of hairy growth and spread across the seafloor fast enough to cover a football field in an hour.

When fishermen touched it, their skin broke out in searing welts. Their lips blistered and peeled. Their eyes burned and swelled shut. Water that splashed from their nets spread the inflammation to their legs and torsos.

"It comes up like little boils," said Randolph Van Dyk, a fisherman whose powerful legs are pocked with scars. "At nighttime, you can feel them burning. I tried everything to get rid of them. Nothing worked."

As the weed blanketed miles of the bay over the last decade, it stained fishing nets a dark purple and left them coated with a powdery residue. When fishermen tried to shake it off the webbing, their throats constricted and they gasped for air. . . Full story: truthout.org

The Times of the Gentiles

Daniel the prophet dated the beginning of the "times of the Gentiles" in the reign of Nebuchadnezzar when he interpreted the king's dream which the Lord portrayed in a vision showing the entire history of Gentile dominion over Israel, ending in the consummation of all life on earth (Daniel 2:31-45). Daniel foretold how the "times of the Gentiles" will end with "multiculturalism" which is the curse of miscegenation or "original sin" that caused the "Fall" in the Garden of Eden. 630 years later, Jesus and Peter confirmed Daniel's prophecy, stating the abominable sin of miscegenation would bring God's wrath upon Earth in these last days "as it was in the days of Noah" (Matthew 24:37; II Peter 3:1-12).

Daniel 2:43, "Whereas you saw 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".

Brother Branham placed this Scripture in the days when the USSR and the United States, East and West, tried to reach an accommodation in the United Nations without the authority of the 'hidden hand' who controls both hemispheres. He foretold the fall of the Berlin Wall separating the Judaeo-Communist East from the Judaeo-Roman West, which has led to miscegenation between the descendants of Adam and the children of Cain and the mingling of Eastern reasoning with Christian faith. This is evident in "liberation theology," feminism, homosexuality, immodest dressing, the mantra of "vain repetitions" and ungodly music that has replaced heartfelt singing, familiarity, humanism, etc.).

The trail of the Serpent which began in the garden of Eden will end in the battle of Armageddon, and in the days of these mingled Gentile kingdoms of Cain and Adam, Christ will restore the Kingdom to Israel following the destruction of all life on earth. This Millennial "Kingdom 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" (Isaiah 65:19-25; Daniel 2:44; Habakkuk 2:14; Revelation 19).

In describing Daniel's interpretation of Nebuchadnezzar's dream Brother Branham said, "Herein is revealed an exact account of future, unfilled history that was prophesied to come upon the earth from the time of Daniel until Jesus would come and reign as the Son of David. It is known as "the times of the Gentiles." It had within it four historical divisions which were known by the dominating empire in each division: Babylonian, Medo-Persian, Grecian, Roman."

"The greatest and most absolute monarchy was the Babylonian which was typified as the head of gold."

"The next in glory was the Medo-Persian which as history bore out was truly less glorious and was typified as the breast and arms of silver."

"Then there followed the Grecian age whose king was the most brilliant of all military leaders the world has ever known so it was fittingly typified as the belly and thighs of brass. It was less glorious than the other two preceding it."

"Finally came the last kingdom which was the Roman Empire typified as the legs and feet. But wherein the former kingdoms were typified as pure minerals (pure gold, silver and brass) this last empire was pure iron only in the legs, for when it came to the feet it was a mixture of iron and clay, and mineral and soil just don't mix and produce constancy and strength. But not only is this so, but most amazing, this last empire (Roman) would endure in its peculiar 'mixed state' right up until Jesus returns."

"This Roman Empire of iron (iron signifying power and great destructive force against opposition) was to be made of two main divisions. And it certainly was for the empire literally split into two—East and West. Both were very powerful, crushing all before them."

"But as the glory and power of all empires fail, so this empire began to fall also. Thus Rome fell. Pagan Imperial Rome was no longer iron. She crumbled. She was wounded to death. Rome could not now rule. It was all over; so thought the world. But how wrong the world was, for that head (Rome) though wounded was not wounded unto death. (Wuest, translation of Revelation 13:3, "And one of his heads appeared to have been mortally wounded, the throat having been slashed. And his death stroke was healed. And the whole earth followed after the Wild Beast in amazement").

"People look at Rome. They look at the nation of Italy. And as they look they do not realize that Rome with her strict confines where the pope has an actual area as his domain is literally a nation within a nation, and she has ambassadors and receives ambassadors. PAPAL FALSE CHRISTIAN ROME (she is even called the eternal city—how blasphemous) NOW CONTROLS BY RELIGION EVEN MORE ABLY THAN WHEN PAGAN IMPERIAL ROME CONTROLLED BY THE PURE IRON OF FORCE. Rome took on a new lease of life when Constantine joined church and state and backed the union by force. The spirit that motivated pagan Rome is the same spirit that now motivates false Christian Rome. You can see that is so because you now know that the fourth empire never went out of existence; it just changed in its outer texture" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, 194-195:1).

"The times of the Gentiles," that is, the times of Gentile rule over Israel, extend from Nebuchadnezzar's overthrow of the Southern kingdom of Judah unto the consummation of all life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-3).

Some ministers in the circle of this Message are either willfully ignorant and preaching the wisdom of their own conceits to congregations of foolish virgin, or deceitful toadies sowing lying propaganda of the sworn enemy of God and Adam's race who impersonate the blood descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Genesis 27:39-41; II Thessalonians 2:11-12).

Romans 11:25-27, "I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceits: spiritual blindness has overcome Israel until the full number of Gentiles come into Christ at the end of their dispensation. As it is written, 'The Deliverer shall come out of Zion and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.' This is My covenant with them when I have taken away their sins. Then all Israel will be saved".

When does this Covenant come into effect? "When Jesus Messiah has remitted the sins of 144,000 elect Israelites, and not one minute earlier!" That is, in midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week, three and a half years after the resurrection and translation of Christ's Bride.

Moses said, "At the mouth of two witnesses or three witnesses, shall the matter be established" (Deuteronomy 19:15). Daniel, Zechariah and Jesus Christ are three witnesses who foretold God would send two witnesses to Israel to establish His New Covenant which an election will recognize after the martyrdom of these prophets, and not before (Daniel 12:5-7; Zechariah 4:11-14; 12:10-14; Matthew 17:1-7; 24:31; Revelation 11:1-11).

Jesus said, "Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled" (Luke 21:24). He was not speaking of the Gentile dispensation but of the times of Gentile rule over Israel. That is, until the consummation of all life in the atomic conflagration of Armageddon. To pretend modern Israel is ruled by the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is to deny the Holy Spirit who spoke through the prophets of the Old and New Testaments.

We should take the prophet Jesus Messiah at His Word. He was one witness; Paul and Brother Branham are two additional witnesses to this same truth. Paul was the prophet who wrote the New Testament and Brother Branham was the prophet who restored the revelation of Paul's Message. We should believe God's prophets, not anti-Semitic Zionist propaganda. Newsletter 430 quoted 82-year-old Mr. Binjamin Herzel who wrote: "I was hoping our Jewish community would divorce itself from the Zionists who highjacked our religion years ago and use it as a shield to operate behind. Unfortunately, now it's too late, we are heading towards World War Three and probable annihilation of our 'civilization'."

In Genesis 27:39-41 Isaac prophesied Esau should live by his sword and serve his brother for a time but that he should finally break the yoke from his neck. Esau hated Jacob for stealing his blessing, and swore he would kill him. Esau/Edom has had the dominion over Jacob/Israel since the days of John Hyrcanus who defeated and forcibly assimilated Edom into Judah 100 years before the birth of Christ. Hence Jesus would not live in Judea "for fear of the Jews" who were largely Edomites, that is physical Serpent's seed, through Esau's intermarriage with a Hittite and a Canaanite. As I write they are killing blood Israelites and other Semitic people in Lebanon, Palestine and Iraq in preparation for an invasion of Syria and Iran where many Israelites have lived since the destruction of the Northern Kingdom. If you doubt me, go next door and watch the television news.

Malachi 1:3-5, "I have hated Esau and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the jackals of the wilderness. If Edom says, We are shattered but we will rebuild the ruins; thus saith the Lord of hosts, They may build, but I will destroy again, till they are called 'the Land of wickedness,' and 'the people against whom the Lord has indignation forever.' Your eyes Jacob/Israel, shall see this, and you shall say, The Lord be magnified beyond the borders of Israel".

God's love is elective love. No matter how Esau/Edom wanted to restore his heritage in ancient times, or how he plans to rebuild in the Land of Palestine today, God will cast down his work and bless His elect Israelites though their adversary has stolen their identity and their land, is twice as religious and boasts, "We Jews control America, and they know it."

Since they organized their Roman Catholic church at the First Nicaea Council then as the Holy Roman Empire forced their false religion at the point of a sword, Esau/Edom has had dominion over nominally Spiritual Israel. They opened the gates to the Islamic invaders at both Constantinople and Spain, and as Senator Jacob Javits boasted in his 1951 article, Lets open the Gates, they have been the primary force that has opened the immigration gates of the West in the last 50 years in fulfillment of the prophecies of Daniel and Jesus (Daniel 2:43; Matthew 24:37).

Some having been expelled from Spain financed William the Conqueror's invasion of England and 2,600 followed him, but their evil became more than the English could bear and eventually they were expelled. Another group who had relocated to Holland financed the invasion of William of Orange, since when England has been a conquered nation under covert dominion. The "British" Empire was always the Empire of the City of London, a one-mile square independent country like Vatican City State in Italy and Washington DC in the United States.

In his commentary on Professor Kevin MacDonald book Henry Makow notes: "The Culture of Critique" (2002) portrays the 20th century as a Jewish century. A hundred years ago, Jews were an impoverished people living mostly in Eastern Europe surrounded by hostile populations. Today Israel is firmly established in the Middle East and Jews have become the wealthiest and most powerful elite in the United States and other Western countries.

More significantly, according to MacDonald, the Western intellectual world has become Judaized. Jewish values and attitudes now constitute the culture of the West. Because of deep-seated Jewish hostility toward traditional Western (i.e. Christian) culture, the founding peoples "have been made to feel deeply ashamed of their own history, surely the prelude to their demise as a culture and a people" (ibid, p. lxix).

Specifically, Jewish organizations promote policies and ideologies aimed at undermining cultural cohesion while practicing the opposite policies themselves. While they promote multiculturalism and internationalism in the West, they insist that Israel remain a racially pure national enclave for Jews.

"The present immigration policy essentially places the United States and other Western societies "in play" in an evolutionary sense which does not apply to other nations of the world," MacDonald writes. "Notice that American Jews have no interest in proposing that immigration to Israel should be similarly multiethnic, or . . . threaten the hegemony of the Jews." (ibid p. 323) . . .

In his book, The Jewish Century, Yuri Slezkine, Professor of History at the University of California, Berkeley, called the 20th century the Jewish Century because "modernization is about everyone becoming Jewish," or, to use his term, Mercurians—protégés of Mercury—as against Apollonians, settled agriculturalists under the patronage of Apollo.

"I define as Jews the members of traditional Jewish communities in the Diaspora, and more specifically, in the Russian case, the residents of the Pale of Settlement, as well as their children and grandchildren. So it is an ethnic genealogical definition of Jewishness. What I also argue is that Diaspora Jews had certain qualities and engaged in certain occupations that made them remarkably successful in the modern world, but what I'm arguing is that key modern qualities such as being urban, mobile, literate, articulate, intellectually intricate, physically fastidious, and occupationally flexible were specific to Diaspora Jews in the Pale and in the ghettos. So becoming modern is, in effect, everyone becoming Jewish, metaphorically speaking" (Book Talk).

The prophecy of Isaac is fulfilled with predominantly Jewish interests now openly ruling the English-speaking world once perceived as the "British" Empire but in fact the Empire of the City of London. The Judaeo-Catholic church has progressed about as far as it can in gathering her denominational chickens back under her wings without some unifying catastrophe; and Judaeo-Communism once confined to prison states like Russia, China and their satellites, has overcome the whole world by the strategy of Fabian socialist gradualism taking root in the fallow ground of unconverted hearts with the promise of Satan's scientific Eden without Calvary and the faith of Jesus Christ. The authors of these diabolical conspiracies have shed the blood of billions, having forgotten the prophecy of the Pharisaic high priest, "It is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not" (John 11:50). Jesus Christ prophesied that in the aftermath of apostate Laodicea, which means "people's rights," the Mercurial spirit of Judaeo-Communism would sweep the whole world identified as Gog and Magog, and destroy the neo-Holy (sic) Roman Empire, her (once) Protestant United States image, and all life on Earth (Ezekiel 38-39; Revelation 17-19).

With the cowardly compliance of the best morally bankrupt, spiritually blind, naked, miserable and wretched false Christian politicians money can buy, the 'hidden hand' is provoking Iran into unwilling combat in World War III as they provoked Japan into World War II. If the 20th century was the century of the non-Semitic self-styled Jews, the 21st Century will usher in Israel's millennium. Soon the Gentile dispensation will end, followed by Daniel's Seventieth Week in which Jesus Messiah reveals Himself to Israel. When "all Israel is re-born in one day" and martyred by Romanized Jews, "the times of the Gentiles" will end with a real nuclear holocaust and the Kingdom will be restored to Israel (Isaiah 9:6-7; Acts 1:6).

Writing in about 780BC the prophet Hosea (6:1-3) prophesied, "Come, let us return to the Lord: for He has torn, and He will heal us; He has smitten, and He will bind us up. After two days will He revive us: in the third day He will raise us up, and we shall live in His sight. Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and He shall come to us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth".

"One day is as a thousand years to the Lord" (II Peter 3:8). After 2,786 years we are well into the "third day."

The day of redemption is near,
Men's hearts are failing for fear
Be filled with the Spirit,
Your lamp's filled with cheer,
Look up, your redemption is near.

According to Israeli human rights activist the late Israel Shahak, "The wish for peace, so often assumed as the Israeli aim, is not in my view a principle of Israeli policy, while the wish to extend Israeli domination and influence is." And "Israel is preparing for a war, nuclear if need be, for the sake of averting domestic change not to its liking, if it occurs in some or any Middle Eastern states . . . Israel clearly prepares itself to seek overtly a hegemony over the entire Middle East . . , without hesitating to use for the purpose all means available, including nuclear ones."

Israeli Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said; "acquiring a superior weapons system (read nuclear) would mean the possibility of using it for compellent purposes—that is forcing the other side to accept Israeli political demands, which presumably include a demand that the traditional status quo be accepted and a peace treaty signed." From a slightly different perspective, Robert Tuckerr asked in a Commentary magazine article in defense of Israeli nukes, "What would prevent Israel . . . from pursuing a hawkish policy employing a nuclear deterrent to freeze the status quo?"

Another major use of the Israeli bomb is to compel the US to act in Israel's favor, even when it runs counter to its own strategic interests. As early as 1956 Francis Perrin, head of the French A-bomb project wrote "We thought the Israeli Bomb was aimed at the Americans, not to launch it at the Americans, but to say, 'If you don't want to help us in a critical situation we will require you to help us; otherwise we will use our nuclear bombs.'" During the 1973 war, Israel used nuclear blackmail to force Kissinger and Nixon to airlift massive amounts of military hardware to Israel. The Israeli Ambassador, Simha Dinitz, is quoted as saying, at the time, "If a massive airlift to Israel does not start immediately, then I will know that the US is reneging on its promises and . . . we will have to draw very serious conclusions . . ." Just one example of this strategy was spelled out in 1987 by Amos Rubin, economic adviser to Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, who said, "If left to its own Israel will have no choice but to fall back on a riskier defense which will endanger itself and the world at large. . . To enable Israel to abstain from dependence on nuclear arms calls for $2 to 3 billion per year in US aid."

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said, "We Jews control America, and they know it".

It is clear from Israel Shahak that Israel has no interest in peace except that which is dictated on its own terms, and has absolutely no intention of negotiating in good faith to curtail its nuclear program or discuss seriously a nuclear-free Middle East, "Israel's insistence on the independent use of its nuclear weapons can be seen as the foundation on which Israeli grand strategy rests."

According to Seymour Hersh, "the size and sophistication of Israel's nuclear arsenal allows men such as Ariel Sharon to dream of redrawing the map of the Middle East aided by the implicit threat of nuclear force." . . . Ze'ev Shiff, an Israeli military expert writing in Haaretz said, "Whoever believes that Israel will ever sign the UN Convention prohibiting the proliferation of nuclear weapons . . . is day dreaming," and Munya Mardoch, Director of the Israeli Institute for the Development of Weaponry, said in 1994, "The moral and political meaning of nuclear weapons is that states which renounce their use are acquiescing to the status of Vassal states. All those states which feel satisfied with possessing conventional weapons alone are fated to become vassal states."

Will the conspirators under the 'hidden hand' be so bold as to engineer the last of a series of seven continuous visions the Lord showed His prophet in 1933? "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America". eb434.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; thanks for your fellowship in God's unchanging Word.

Nations are breaking, Israel's not yet awakening.
The signs that the prophets foretold;
The Gentile days numbered, with horrors encumbered;
Eternity soon will unfold.

Politicians anxious for glory they do not merit, and will not receive, have led Israel into the valley of the shadow of death as planned by the 'hidden hand' to whom they are compliant pawns in his endgame for world hegemony. As the prophet Balaam said, "God cannot bless what He has cursed." God said to Israel, "Stand at the Crossroads, and look; ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is; then walk in it, and find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk in it".

In this issue of the Newsletter we illustrate the beatitudes in Lebanon and signs of the uniting time. As Israel pulls the world into the "hot" stage of World War III, the Lord will "put hooks in the jaws" of the king of the North, and mobilize his host. The Trumpet of the Lord will sound, and after a short and powerful demonstration of the "third pull," time shall be no more for Christ's hunted and persecuted little Bride.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

On Catholics and Pentecostals– A Historical Overview

(by Father Juan Usma Gómez,Official of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity).

Vatican City, July 20, 2006– Catholics and Pentecostals meet all over the world and confront each other everywhere. Aggression and diffidence have frequently been at the root of their relations: the desire to convert clouds minds and hearts. Pentecostals have difficulty in recognizing the saving value of the Catholic Church and of the sacraments, whereas many Catholics view with suspicion the proliferation of divine interventions and consider the promises of healing, prophecies and spiritual gifts as forms of proselytism.

The Catholic-Pentecostal international dialogue began in 1972. It should be remembered that 40 years ago, Catholics were in the dark about Pentecostal spirituality and missiology. Nor did the majority of Pentecostals know of the rich spirituality and missionary vitality of Catholics. Catholics and Pentecostals were diffident and wary of each other.

The contact established between them, thanks to the appearance of Catholic Charismatic Renewal together with the participation of a Pentecostal leader (David du Plessis) in the Second Vatican Council, made it possible to initiate a dialogue with several leaders and groups of the classical Pentecostals. This dialogue aimed at deepening their knowledge of each other and at overcoming reciprocal misunderstandings.

Today, through documents published for the International Catholic Pentecostal Dialogue, Catholics and Pentecostals can recognize certain confessional traits proper to their dialogue partner and can understand the basic reasons for some of their attitudes. The process is far from easy. Indeed, their missiology and expression of spirituality are not the same, while their approach to theology is radically different. . . Full story: zenit.org

Comment: In 1963 Brother Branham said, "The Council of churches over there now that's meeting in Rome. This circular letter that my good friend, David duPlessis, when I set there and cried to him about it, at Fourteen Mile Creek, not long ago; not realizing he swung the church right into Babylon, when everybody saying, "Oh, all the churches are going to be one now." Yeah, I know that, see, just exactly what's wrote on my book of prophecy in 1933, that would take place. Why, don't you realize that's Satan uniting together? The Bible says that. And just after a bit, just a little while, as soon as they become one, then the interdenominational is finished. See? There'll be your mark of the beast rise. See?" (Souls in Prison Now, p. 30:202).

Freedom Filmmaker

"[The Rockefeller family member] asked me what I thought of the 'women's movement,' and I told him that I support equal opportunity," Russo continues. "He looked at me and said, 'You know, you're such an idiot in some ways. We'—meaning the people he works with—'created the women's movement, and we promote it. And it's not about equal opportunity. It's designed to get both parents out of the home and into the workforce, where they will pay taxes. And then we can decide how the children will be raised and educated.' That's how they control society—by removing the parents from the home and then raising the children as the elitists see fit."

Russo recalls conversations in 2000 with his Rockefeller acquaintance that, in hindsight, seemed to portend 9/11 and its aftermath.

"About a year before 9/11, this guy was telling me that there would be 'an event' in this country that would change it dramatically," declares Russo. "He was predicting a war in Afghanistan and in the Middle East to control the region's energy reserves, and at some points he was actually laughing about it."

"I know how evil these people are," Russo said grimly. Full story: thenewamerican.com

Behind the feminist movement, like a shadow, was the super elite lusting for control—over men, over women, over children, over the workplace, over education, eventually over society itself. Radical feminists—obsessed with gender politics but never looking behind the scenes—have been great useful idiots for over 40 years. Feminism was never really about women or their opportunities, which is why its benefits, viewed objectively, turn out to be illusory. A lot of women have filled their prescribed roles unwittingly. Still more have followed their leaders naively. Political correctness has been a good tool for gaining the cooperation of men—or, at least, intimidating many of them into silence. Thus today's "feminized" order: women don't trust men; men don't trust women. Women have careers in record numbers; their children are in state-sponsored daycare where they begin their indoctrination into New World Order globalism and the Earth Charter. Neither men nor women have lives. Neither pays significant attention to their real enemies at the top.

Hezbollah's Attacks stem from Israeli incursions into Lebanon

August 1, 2006– As pundits and policymakers scramble to explain events in Lebanon, their conclusions are virtually unanimous: Hezbollah created this crisis. Israel is defending itself. The underlying problem is Arab extremism.

Sadly, this is pure analytical nonsense. Hezbollah's capture of two Israeli soldiers on July 12 was a direct result of Israel's silent but unrelenting aggression against Lebanon, which in turn is part of a six-decades long Arab-Israeli conflict.

Since its withdrawal of occupation forces from southern Lebanon in May 2000, Israel has violated the United Nations-monitored "blue line" on an almost daily basis, according to UN reports. Hezbollah's military doctrine, articulated in the early 1990s, states that it will fire Katyusha rockets into Israel only in response to Israeli attacks on Lebanese civilians or Hezbollah's leadership; this indeed has been the pattern.

In the process of its violations, Israel has terrorized the general population, destroyed private property, and killed numerous civilians. This past February, for instance, 15-year-old shepherd Yusuf Rahil was killed by unprovoked Israeli cross-border fire as he tended his flock in southern Lebanon. Israel has assassinated its enemies in the streets of Lebanese cities and continues to occupy Lebanon's Shebaa Farms area, while refusing to hand over the maps of mine fields that continue to kill and cripple civilians in southern Lebanon more than six years after the war supposedly ended. What peace did Hezbollah shatter?

Hizbullah's capture of the soldiers took place in the context of this ongoing conflict, which in turn is fundamentally shaped by realities in the Palestinian territories. To the vexation of Israel and its allies, Hezbollah—easily the most popular political movement in the Middle East—unflinchingly stands with the Palestinians. . . Full story: csmonitor.com

Israeli Justice Minister Haim Ramon announced on Israeli army radio, "All those in south Lebanon are terrorists who are related in some way to Hezbollah." Full story: countercurrents.org

The Mark of Cain: Ungodly, Inhuman, Cowardly, Immoral and Illegal

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they who do hunger and thirst after righteousness:
for they shall be filled.

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake:
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you, when men shall revile you, and persecute you,
and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for My sake.

Jeremiah 6, "The rabbis give assurances of peace when there is war.
Was Israel ashamed when they worshipped abominations? Not at all—they didn't even blush. Therefore they shall lie among the slain. They shall die beneath My anger. . .
I set watchmen over you who warned you saying, Give heed to the sound of the trumpet! But you said, We will not hear. Therefore hear, O nations, and know what will happen to them. . . Thus saith the Lord, A people come from the north country, and a great nation is rising from the extremity of the earth".

President John F. Kennedy certainly receives a bad press within the circle of this Message but he recognized the enemies of America and the world in the natural sphere. Listen as he speaks on Secret Societies and Freedom of the Press. How would JFK view today's "false flag" airlines scare to detract attention from Israel's slaughter in Lebanon, and the City of London's slaughter in Afghanistan and Iraq?

Christ's promise is "to him that overcometh." The overcomer is the Christian who comes off victorious over all His foes, holding fast his faith even unto death against the power of his foes and temptations and persecutions. And when he is arraigned or goes to law to win the case and maintain the cause, stands with the Token on display. One could hardly find a more fitting example of faith, virtue, Godly knowledge, temperance, patience, Godliness, brotherly kindness and love than that represented in the Great Pyramid. It is God's second Bible and a prophetic memorial to the overcomer in every age. Built by Enoch before the Flood, it has stood the test of time and portrays New Jerusalem: Jesus Christ and His Bride with the household of saints overshadowed by the Shekinah. Like the Royal Household, in their mortal sojourn the Great Pyramid has endured the elements and insidious attacks of the cowan and intruder. Holding dominion over the center of the Earth it signifies our destiny.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Presbyterian Church publishes 9/11 Conspiracy Theory

August 8, 2006– The decision by the 160-year-old Westminster John Knox Press, the trade and academic publishing imprint of the Presbyterian Publishing Corp., to attribute the attacks on the World Trade Center brings into the US religious mainstream a conspiracy theory long held by the world's jihadists.

In "Christian Faith and the Truth behind 9/11: A Call to Reflection and Action," author David Ray Griffin calls the United States the world's chief embodiment of demonic power," and says he initially scoffed at 9/11 conspiracy theories.

But after investigating he concluded that the Twin Towers were brought down by controlled demolition, military personnel were given stand-down orders not to intercept hijacked flights and the 9/11 Commission, ostensibly created to uncover the truth behind the events of 9/11, "simply ignored evidence" that the administration was involved in the attacks.

Griffin further asserts that such events such as that of 9/11 are part of a long history of "false-flag attacks," attacks orchestrated by governments against their own people to garner popular support for military action.

Griffin is a professor at California's Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Graduate University, and a codirector of the Center for Process Studies. Full story: malaysiasun.com

New and Unknown Deadly Weapons used by Israeli Forces

August 7, 2006– By now there are countless reports, from hospitals, witnesses, armament experts and journalists that strongly suggest that in the present offensive of Israeli forces against Lebanon and Gaza 'new weapons' are being used.

New and strange symptoms are reported amongst the wounded and the dead.

Bodies with dead tissues and no apparent wounds; 'shrunken' corpses; civilians with heavy damage to lower limbs that require amputation, which is nevertheless followed by unstoppable necrosis and death; descriptions of extensive internal wounds with no trace of shrapnel, corpses blackened but not burnt, and others heavily wounded that did not bleed.

Many of these descriptions suggest the possibility that the new weapons used include 'direct energy' weapons, and chemical and/or biological agents, in a sort of macabre experiment of future warfare, where there is no respect for anything: International rules (from the Geneva Convention to the treaties on biological and chemical weapons), refugees, hospitals and the Red Cross, not to mention the people, their future, their children, the environment, which is poisoned through dissemination of Depleted Uranium and toxic substances released after oil and chemical depots are bombed. . .

When the Skies rain Death

The culture of the fighter plane is the culture of annihilation.

The fighter plane is the quintessence of modern civilisation, the modern goddess. It is the product of the collective input of all the sciences and the neutralisation of all morals and values. In it converge the laser, micro-optics, microelectronics and high-tech aerodynamics, allowing precision flying, hairline guidance, dead-on targeting and surgical destruction. It is hygienic and ultra-precise and its factories, hangars and assembly plants are as tall and spacious as cathedrals. These planes are only manufactured in the most industrially developed states, assembled by huge corporations whose employees inhabit equality-oriented societies and receive high salaries. They can only be piloted by highly qualified individuals. They are simultaneously a product of absolute individualism and institutionalised collective labour. The employees who contribute to their manufacture embody societies that have achieved much; they are the elite, a cut above the rest . . .

Israel was built on targeting civilians. In 1948 it targeted them in order to displace them and usurp their land. It targeted entire villages it alleged were fedayeen—resistance fighter—bases. The "strategy" was founded upon two tenets: the need to deter civilians from supporting the resistance, which is to say to repress the expression of any political or social position, and the need to feed and quench the Israeli thirst for revenge. This two-pronged military creed was epitomised by Unit 101, led by Ariel Sharon in the early 1950s. It raided villages, blew up houses and slaughtered the residents. Among the most notorious fruits of this philosophy were the massacres of Qubya, Nahalin and Al-Bureij in the fifties, and the massacres of Jabalya, Beit Hanoun, Al-Shajaiya, Qasba in Nablus and Jenin in more recent times. To perform these deeds Israel needed butchers, though it called them "legendary warriors". It was a hands-on approach. It did not involve F-16s, just spoiled youths of the appropriate religious affiliation with hearts set on an American consumerist lifestyle.

Israel is deliberately targeting civilians in Lebanon, capitalising on an expedient moment. Its aims are to punish anyone who might have supported the resistance, to displace civilians northward in order to aggravate sectarian tensions in the country and to quench its barbaric thirst for revenge. The current attack, in all its ferocity and with its toll of innocent victims, was planned well in advance, with malice aforethought. Israel is a terrorist state. The diabolical logic of this state is actively supported by another terrorist state led by George Bush, a very dangerous, pathologically violent and sadistic man surrounded by a gang of cool and calculating Machiavellians and apologists for state terrorism. They ardently believe that civilians who don't own fighter planes are so far down the rungs of the ladder in the survival of the fittest that if they die, well that's their own fault, a result of their own lack of realism.

US/Israeli Kain versus the Lebanese Abel– Shame on the Warmongering Propaganda Media

August 06, 2006– The ethnic cleansing of Lebanon, and the grabbing of land and Litani water by the US/Israeli war machine—'debated' in the US/Israel-managed United Nations' so-called 'Security' Council—is a shame for all involved who do not protest this bellicose disaster. Their names will be remembered for the war crimes tribunals to come: after the Nuremberg Tribunals the NAZI warmongers and their propagandists were hanged by the 'Americans' for their crimes against humanity. Are the henchmen going to commit suicide now by hanging themselves?

Staggering examples of how the mainstream media in the warmongers' propaganda channels, also via the pro-Israel Google selection on Internet, are spreading and brainwashing people concerning the US/Israeli holocaust in Lebanon. Nearly all their propaganda sewers—in most countries—using the same stories with the same headlines and the same lies.

Today the health of Cuban leader Fidel Castro gets 2,473 related articles, while the illegal and inhuman slaughter in Lebanon, the bombings, death and destruction by Israel's IDF and other mercenaries goes on, and this Sunday morning gets only half (1,197) of the global 'coverage' as dictated by the malignant media moguls. With the open support of the US, the 'London War Lords' managing England's war criminal Tony Blair and the cowards and collaborators in the Quisling group called the 'Coalition of the Killing'. . .

Not all displaced Palestinians are Muslims

Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" is playing to full houses in the Syrian capital Damascus. Watching it here turns out to be much the same as watching it on opening night in New York—customarily rowdy moviegoers observe a reverent silence, the usual sound of candy wrappers is replaced by sobbing and gasping, and, at the end of it all, the audience files out of the theater in silence and contemplation.

Many of those watching the movie on this occasion are Palestinian Christian refugees whose parents or grandparents were purged from their homeland—the land of Christ—at the foundation of Israel in 1948. For them the movie has an underlying symbolic meaning not easily perceived in the West: not only is it a depiction of the trial, scourging, and death of Jesus, it is also a symbolic depiction of the fate of the Palestinian people. "This is how we feel," says Zaki, a 27-year old Palestinian Christian whose family hails from Haifa. "We take beating after beating at the hands of the world, they crucify our people, they insult us, but we refuse to surrender" . . . Full story: amconmag.com

Death Squad Democracy

March 20, 2006– In Max Fuller's seminal article "For Iraq, the 'Salvador Option' becomes Reality" the author disproves the idea "that sectarianism is a sufficient explanation for the violence in Iraq." Instead, Fuller says it is "structurally at the hands of the state as part of the ongoing economic subjugation of Iraq." Full story: globalresearch.ca

It is simply impossible to grasp what is taking place in Iraq without reading Fuller's well-documented article. His clear-eyed analysis is invaluable in making sense of the apparent chaos:

"In Iraq the war comes in two phases. The first phase is complete: the destruction of the existing state, which did not comply with the interests of British and American capital. The second phase consists of building a new state tied to those interests and smashing every dissenting sector of society. Openly, this involves applying the same sort of economic shock therapy that has done so much damage in swathes of the Third World and Eastern Europe. Covertly, it means intimidating, kidnapping and murdering opposition voices" . . . Full story: countercurrents.org  countercurrents.org

Lobbying for Armageddon

August 3, 2006– In a perfect world, a reporter at last week's press conference with George Bush and Tony Blair would have asked Bush, in the presence of his principal European ally, if he believes the European Union is the Antichrist. . .

Comment: Pastor Strangelove will get a shock when Russia invades mainland USA.

Earth will become a Garden of Eden . . . after all life has been destroyed.

Iran says Oil may hit $100/Barrel

Iran signs $2.7bln Refinery Deal with China

LONDON, August 1– OPEC member Iran has signed a 2.7-billion-dollar oil refinery upgrade deal with China which will help feed the Islamic republic's hunger for fuel . . . Under the accord, a consortium led by Chinese firm Sinopec will upgrade capacity at a refinery in the central Iranian city of Arak from the current 150,000 barrels of crude oil per day to 250,000 barrels.

"Currently, Arak refinery produces about six million liters (1.6 million gallons) of petrol a day and when the upgrade operation is done the figure will reach about 16 million liters (four million gallons)," said deputy oil minister in charge of refining affairs. . . Full story: iranmania.com

Time to Shake Up the Anti-War Movement

In what country would a huge peace coalition hold an anti-war rally that has nothing to say about Iran, Israel and Palestine or Afghanistan?

Is the answer Israel? Turkey? Micronesia?

Sadly it was the USA.

On April 29 United for Peace and Justice held a big demonstration in New York City called "March for Peace, Justice and Democracy." THE ONLY "PEACE" DEMAND MENTIONED WAS BRINGING TROOPS HOME FROM IRAQ.

The silence about Iran is staggering. On April 9 the Washington Post reported on US military planning for an attack. It includes this sentence, "Pentagon planners are studying how to penetrate eight-foot-deep targets and are contemplating tactical nuclear devices".

Contemplating? We're not talking about mediation here, but dropping "tactical" Hiroshima-size atomic bombs.

Thousands of Troops say they Won't Fight

Since 2000, about 40,000 troops from all branches of the military have deserted. Those who help war resisters say desertion is more prevalent than the military has admitted.

Ehren Watada, the first commissioned officer to refuse deployment to the war in Iraq. Full story: airforcetimes.com

Morgellons Syndrome

People who worry about the future need to realize that it has been here for a long time.

While many doctors and others who supposedly work for the public good sit someplace as I write this, complacent and self-satisfied, financially more than comfortable and with egos intact, thousands sit crying, wondering whether they can go on another day or night because they are so sick. Thousands of people as you read this feel as if there are hundreds of wasps stinging them all over their bodies; thousands of people are having up to their tenth course of diarrhea for the day; thousands of people cannot read or even watch TV because their sight is going; thousands of people have no hair on their heads.

If you are reading this late at night, say, around midnight, know that there are many, many people shopping at all-night stores because their faces are so disfigured by lesions that they do not want any more people to see them than necessary.

While you sit with your families, know that many people sit alone because their own families are afraid to be near them and catch whatever this is, or because they make their families stay away so as not to give it to them.

If you are a veterinarian in your local feed store buying supplies, the person next to you buying Ivermectin for horses might be buying it for themselves, because in spite of the fact that their doctor cannot or will not diagnose or treat them, and in spite of the fact that they have begged their doctor for parasitic medicine, they have been told that "we do not have parasites in this country" or that they are delusional.

As you read this in your warm and safe home, know that people are receiving foreclosure notices because they are too sick to work and, without a diagnosis cannot get disability or financial aid.

As you go forth in the world with confidence and self-esteem intact, know that many, many people venture out in shame because they are disfigured and sick, and have been told that they are delusional while continuing to suffer from all too real physical symptoms caused by a disease that does not exist in America.

Then think about the news stories concerning biological warfare and Cloning and the environment. Think about the fact that many environmental pollutants are tiny and spore-like and that the ash from Mt. St. Helen's traveled around the world three times. Think about the garbage, filled with living organisms, floating in waters that eventually merge. Think about the big pharmaceutical companies and large health agencies here in American who have experimented and purposefully caused diseases, for which the drug companies then develop cures and are applauded for their humanitarianism (see mycoplasma experiments, Merck, CDC and NIH by the Scott brothers, Canada). Think about the fact that when large numbers of feed animals are crowded together in huge feedlots, infection and parasites increase, as do flies who carry disease and waste that travels as dust through the air you breathe.

Would you be surprised to read that many diseases, such as MS and Aids, can be caused on purpose? Would you be upset that a simple tribe of people living in Hawaii (the Fior) were experimented on and almost wiped out, and then when their disease was "discovered" someone involved in causing the disease won a Nobel Peace Prize for their work on this? These people were given the equivalent of mad cow disease and the brains of 65% of them turned to mush. There is now mad deer disease, mad elk disease and more.

There is research being done. There are still a few people in America who give a damn. The hordes of people who are suffering with this will not quit or give in and die off. We will keep writing to our officials and to anyone else we can think of. We will organize and put pressure on where it is needed. Full story: curezone.com

A Jesuit Anniversary

August 9, 2006– The Jesuits are celebrating a big anniversary this year: its 450 years since the death of their founder, St. Ignatius Loyola in 1556, and 500 years since the birth of two of the order's other great founding saints, Francis Xavier and Peter Faber.

The Society of Jesus has been described as 'the most successful organisation in Western history.' Between the formal approval for the establishment of the order by Pope Paul III in 1540 and its suppression by order of Pope Clement XIV in 1773, the Society of Jesus represents not just the Catholic Church at the height of its game, but a concentration of individual and organisational genius unparalleled in Europe since ancient times.

The Jesuits spearheaded the counter-reformation in Europe, and took the gospel to India, China, Japan, Northern Africa and North and South America. In 1548, just eight years after the order was founded, St Francis Xavier was stepping off a boat in Yokahama speaking Japanese, and 30 years later the Jesuits were governing the city of Nagasaki. They came within a hair's breadth of converting the Grand Mogul Akhbar in India, and the Emperors of China and Japan.

They brought the umbrella back from China; they sailed up the Mississippi and discovered the Great Lakes. It's been argued that it's because of the Jesuits that the United States Constitution came to include the principle of religious tolerance . . .

And it's arguable that the single greatest catastrophe ever to befall the Catholic church is that Pope Clement XIV suppressed the order in 1773 just as the French Revolution was about to hit, leaving the church without the one source of sensible, forward-looking advice that it needed to navigate its way into the modern world.

. . . in the 1970s the great Jesuit General, Pedro Arrupe embraced the principle of liberation theology . . . the Jesuit General for the past 25 years, Peter Hans Kolvenbach and the much anticipated general congregation which the order is planning for next year, where they'll elect a new leaders and plan their strategy for the years ahead. . .

The Spoken Word Tabernacle

I once worked out of Spoken Word Tabernacle in Wichita, Kansas, pastored by (the late) Walter Higgins who appropriately redefined the word "beatitude" or "blessedness" to mean "let this be your attitude." With this new definition and our inheritance in mind we will read the first and third beatitudes from Christ's sermon on the M ount to establish a context for this Message.

Matthew 5:3, "Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." This blessing is to those who feel themselves insufficient, being destitute of a wealth of learning and academic culture—"ignorant and unlearned men"—as Caiaphas and his officers considered Peter and John (Acts 4:13). This consciousness of a deep, inexpressible want of the Spirit and longing for a closer relationship with our Lord is the contra pole of the Laodicean condition of this present world which majors on scientific learning and worldly approval with the objective of personal prestige and material advantage (Revelation 3:17).

Matthew 11:25, 29-39, "Jesus said, I thank You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hid these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to untaught and unskilled babes as will learn . . . Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light".

Persons of the untaught class most readily give themselves up to Christ's teaching and prove themselves fitted to lay hold of the heavenly treasure. They have no status in life, no certificates of learning to uphold and are not burdened with the weight of this world like Atlas or Sisyphus. Their desire is righteousness, to receive correction where they are in error, trusting in the Lord to lead and guide them.

Matthew 5:5, "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth".

Meekness toward God is that disposition of spirit in which we accept His dealings with us as good, and therefore without disputing or resisting. In the Old Testament, the meek were those wholly relying on God rather than their own strength to defend them against injustice. Numbers 12:3, "Moses was very meek, (humble and gentle), more than any other man on Earth".

Thus, meekness toward evil people means knowing God is permitting the injuries they inflict, that He is using them to purify His elect, and that He will deliver His elect in His time (Isaiah 41:17; Luke 18:1-8). Gentleness or meekness is the opposite of self-assertiveness and self interest. It stems from trust in God's goodness and control over the situation. The gentle person is not occupied with self at all. This quality is a work of the Holy Ghost, not of the human will (Galatians 5:23).

Zechariah 4:6, "The angel said, This is the Word of the Lord to Zerubbabel, Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord of hosts".

Our late Brother Dave Hatch was a meek man who assisted this Church to enter cyberspace with Bible Believers BBS, and Brethren who came to the Lord through the BBS worship with us to this day. Dave told me Brother Branham was so meek, one was not conscious of his presence on the platform. He testified of a miracle God performed in him through his ministry.

The Prophet said, "By a Divine gift, if I can just get myself out of the way, let the Holy Spirit say what He wants to do, and do what He wishes to do. Now, that's a gift, not just imaginary. And if it's imaginary, it won't work. If it is real, it works. That's what Jesus said, "It's not Me that doeth the works; it's My Father that dwelleth in Me." So it couldn't be me. He was the Son of God; I'm a sinner saved by His grace.

In order to receive the kingdom of heaven, which is the kingdom of God, we must be "poor in spirit" to be able to surrender human reasoning and receive the mind of Christ by a clear understanding of the revealed Word of God. As Jesus explained to the Pharisees who were full of intellectual learning: "The coming of the Kingdom of God is not something that can be observed like the entrance of a victorious king and his host into a conquered city, their banners flying. Neither is the Kingdom of God a piece of geography over here or over there, for the Kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:20-21).

The Kingdom of God is a revelation. It is the new birth which was potentially in the souls of all who had received the Gospel before Calvary and Pentecost. Only the meek can receive it. The rest of the world live in their own strength and are so busy pursuing worldly agendas they cannot hear the Voice of the Lord.

II Peter 3:10-16, "(In spite of the mockers, and notwithstanding the delay), the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works therein (trees, plants, minerals, animals, cities, houses, provisions, instruments, etc.,) shall be burned up. Since all these things are to be dissolved, how consecrated and reverent ought our behavior to be, prayerfully and zealously expecting and hastening on the coming of the day of God, on account of which the heavens will be on fire and be dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt like wax (as our igneous rocks were once in a liquid state) and disappear with the flames."

"Nevertheless in accord with His promise we look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness is at home. Therefore, beloved, since you have these expectations, do your utmost to be found at peace with Him—without spot and blameless. And count the continued patience of our Lord the foundation of your salvation (and of those yet to be gathered into the Church: whereas those scoffers "account it as slackness" on the Lord's part– II Peter 3:9), as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom granted to him (I Corinthians 3;10), speaking of these things as he does in all his epistles (which were by this time the common property of all of the churches), in which some statements are hard to understand. The unlearned and unstable twist those writings, as they do the other Scriptures to their own destruction." (Paul's Epistles were by this time recognized in the Church as Scripture).

Those whose attitude is "poor in spirit" and not puffed up with intellectual knowledge, and who are "meek," resting in the Lord (Romans 8:28), have invested their heart's treasures in the promise of renewed heavens and a renewed earth where righteousness is at home.

Sin placed man in the cycle of time, but Ephesians 1:10-11 says, "In the dispensation of the fullness of times God will unite all things in Christ, things in heaven, and things on earth. And in Christ we too were made God's heritage, being predestinated according to the purpose of He who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of His own will." So our journey through time makes it possible for God in longsuffering patience to display His attributes of mercy, judgment, salvation, healing, provision, Fatherhood, Sonship, Redeemer, in His Family, and gather glory to Himself when His Character is reflected in Jesus Christ and His children.

The story of redemption began outside the garden of Eden when God placed Adam and Eve under the blood of two innocent lambs but the saints and the saved must each fulfill their part in the cycle of time before creation can return to the holy convocation whence our first parents were evicted by sin.

The Gentile Church has completed its cycle through the "fullness of times" and is in an eighth day holy convocation as the fiftieth day of the Pentecostal Feast. Laodicea was a type of sabbath wherein the "loose ends" of the works of the previous six Church Ages were gathered in by the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 to restore the faith once delivered to the apostolic saints, as on the sabbath day the Israelites in their journey through the wilderness ate of the manna gathered on the sixth day. The revelation of the Seven Seals in the fullness of the seven times or Church Ages brought Christ back to Earth in Word form. There was no further delay required for Mediation in behalf of the PART-Word saints (Revelation 10:6). Christ's Bride is now waiting in the Presence of the Son-Light for Israel's Seventh Trumpet to call the resurrection, the manifestation of the Sons of God and our translation to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the Sky.

God allowed the "traditions of the Elders" or Talmud, which Jesus said "makes the Word of God of no effect" to blind Israel to the Good News (Matthew 15:1-9). Today He has allowed Gentiles who have heard and ignored the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, which is the "Shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16, Revelation 18:4, Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, to be blinded by their traditions and apostatize. Brother Branham's Message is God's last warning before Tribulation judgments fall upon all outside Israel. She still has the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week in which to catch up spiritually with Christ's Church and fulfill the sixfold purpose of Gabriel's instructions to Daniel.

The antitype of Israel's feast of Trumpets will be the ministry of two Hebrew prophets in the Spirit and power of Moses and Elijah revealing their Seven Trumpet mysteries during the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week. This holy convocation is called "a memorial of blowing of Trumpets" during which their two witnesses will bring to remembrance and explain the Seven Trumpets of judgment upon Israel for rejecting and crucifying Jesus Messiah, their Passover Lamb, and call them to mourn their Atonement.

These seven last judgments, "seven times more for your sins," followed Calvary and terminate with Armageddon after the 144,000 are blessed with regeneration on the "thousand three hundred and thirty-fifth day" (Daniel 12:12; Revelation 7:3; 11:13b). Their new birth will fulfill the mourning of Israel's Day of Atonement (Leviticus 23:26-32; Zechariah 12:10– 14:8). Thereafter they will be martyred (Revelation 6:11; 14:1-5, 13).

The Tribulation period will purge the 144,000 to bring them into line with the "common faith" so they can return to Earth with us for the thousand years of peace when the Kingdom is restored to Israel with the King of Peace enthroned as Son of David and His Bride beside Him. This will be man's seventh day of a thousand years, a sabbath through which God's people will live in His sight, take dominion over the Earth and not see death.

The foolish virgin and other classes of the "saved" will also be purged and martyred during the Tribulation to prepare them for the general resurrection and White Throne Judgment that follows the Millennium. They will be judged by the saints and granted into eternal Life as kingdom subjects for the eighth day, which is eternity after Earth has been redeemed.

When Adam took back his adulterous wife he forfeited his dominion over nature. Thus cursed, Earth was subject to Satan's governance and has suffered for six days of a thousand years while man labors against sin. In contrast to the destructive effects of the day of the Lord, Earth will be purged and cleansed for the Millennium when the atomic fires of Armageddon destroy all life and melt the elements. However, that cannot destroy Satan and his angels who will be present throughout the Millennium but in bondage as their subjects are in the grave. At the general resurrection after the Millennium they will seek to deceive the non-elect once more. However, they have no hold over the glorified saints.

Following the White Throne Judgment heavens and Earth will receive their baptism with the Holy Ghost and Fire to renew them for the eternal holy convocation of the eighth day where all of God's new creation is aligned in perfect harmony and the absolute of Ephesians 1:10 realized. "The fullness of times" is realized in eternity with the resurrection and "restitution of all things spoken by the mouth of God's holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21).

The inheritance of the saints is not somewhere in the sky but here on this Earth which is being redeemed and restored by the same threefold process by which God is redeeming His people. It was justified and baptized under Noah's Flood, sanctified by the blood of Christ falling upon it, and its baptism with the Holy Ghost shall destroy Satan and his angels, while fire will purify and renew Earth's structure so as to be the renovated abode of regenerated man, wholly freed from the curse.

As we read of this restored heavens and earth in Revelation 21:1-2, remember that John represents Christ's end-time Bride so you should replace his name with your own name.

"I (your name here) saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I (your name here) saw the holy city, New Jerusalem (Christ's Bride with the saints of all Ages), coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband".

This Scripture is based on Isaiah 65:17-25, "Behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former things not be remembered or come into mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in My creation: for I will recreate Jerusalem as a place of rejoicing, and her people a joy. I too will rejoice in Jerusalem, and delight in My people; and the voice of weeping and crying will not be heard there anymore."

"No longer will babies die when only a few days old, or old men not fulfill their days: for the child shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner an hundred years old shall be accursed." (This is hyperbole as there will be no babies and no sinners, for we will all be in the prime of ageless eternal Life. There will be no sickness, curse or death).

"They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. They shall not build, and another inhabit, nor plant and another eat: for the days of My people will be like the perpetual lifetime of a tree, and My elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain for enemies to devour their harvests, nor bring forth children for sudden terror; for they are the seed of the blessed of the Lord, Jesus Messiah, and their offspring with them"—our converts in fulfillment of God's Commandment in Genesis 1:28, "be fruitful and multiply and fill the Earth".

The battle will be over then and we will share the victory of Christ our Lord. There we will build free from mortgages, theft, storm and tempest. Keep the faith in patience and you will realize all of your desires, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." With eternal Life in glorified flesh we will enjoy the fruits of our labors without fear of sickness, accident, fire or the infirmity of age. Having been fruitful in multiplying the Kingdom through the Spoken Word of God we are predestined to "subdue the Earth, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth".

"And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. (But of course: we have the mind of the Lord). The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the bullock, and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain, says the Lord".

God's holy mountain is the future home of the earthly Bride and the Heavenly Groom, an elevated Zion fifteen hundred miles square and fifteen hundred miles high as represented by the Great Pyramid of Giza. This Mount Zion will rise over the renewed earth after the Millennium and the White Throne Judgment, and New Jerusalem will descend from God out of heaven and rest upon that sacred mount throughout eternity.

When Moses dedicated the tabernacle in the wilderness the Pillar of Fire overshadowed the tent and the Shekinah filled the tabernacle indicating God had taken his abode with His people (Exodus 40:34-38). When Solomon dedicated the temple and the priests brought the Ark of the Covenant, a type of Christ, into the Holy of Holies, the Pillar of Cloud filled the house with the glory of the Lord (I Kings 8:7-11).

Acts 17:24, "God made the world and everything in it, and since He is Lord of heaven and earth, He does not live in temples made with hands; and human hands cannot serve him—as if He lacked anything, seeing He is the giver of life and breath and all things to every one".

Hebrews 10:5-7, "Consequently, when Messiah came into the world, He said, Sacrifices and offerings You have not desired, but You have prepared My body to lay as a sacrifice upon Your altar. You were not satisfied with burnt offerings and sin offerings. Then I said, See, I have come to do Your will, O God, as it is written of Me in Psalm 40:6-8, that I should die for the sins of the world, in order that all who believe may be saved, not by animal sacrifices, but by My death as their kinsman Redeemer."

After John had washed and dedicated the Sacrifice to God, heavens opened a vision as promised (John 1:31-33) and he saw the Shekinah in the form of a dove descend and remain upon Jesus while a Voice confirmed, "This is He who will baptize with the Holy Ghost." The unchanging God indicated by the same sign this Jesus is His true Temple not made with human hands, the beginning of God creating Himself a part of His creation in whom He has taken His abode (Revelation 3:14; Matthew 3:17).

Acts 2:1-3, "On the fiftieth day of Pentecost the believers were gathered in one mind in the upper room when suddenly there came a roaring from heaven like the rush of a mighty wind; it filled the whole house where they were meeting, and the Shekinah appeared as tongues of Fire resting upon each one of them." The unchanging God indicated by the same sign He has taken abode in the Temple of Christ's Bride, for through the invisible union the two are one.

We are not another creation but the continuation of the creation of God in the last Adam as Eve was a continuation of man in the first Adam, God having completed that creation thirty-odd years before he formed her from Adam's flesh and bone. Ephesians 2:10, "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God ordained beforehand that we should walk in them." The true Church is made from the Holy Spirit taken from Jesus' side after God put Him to sleep on Calvary. Thus we too are God's Spoken Word Tabernacle, "known and read of all men," and part of the Logos which is Christ. We are His Body and He is our Head as in the natural the husband is head of his wife.

Satan's Illuminati did not fully realize what it was doing in 1933 when it put its own insignia, the Great Seal of the United States, on his Federal Reserve one dollar bill. In that year God showed His Prophet in seven continuous visions, significant events that would come to pass from that time to the termination of the world systems. The Great Seal is the Headstone, Christ, who caps the Pyramid of His Body by incarnating His end-time Bride who is the Capstone, or as Brother Branham described her, "the second Masterpiece," because when He is smitten the second time we will speak.

The foundation of that pyramid bears 1776 in Roman numerals, the year in which the Illuminati originated and America declared her independence. Brother Branham said, "According to history there has never been a democracy at any time last over two hundred years." He also said "I sincerely believe and maintain as a private student of the Word, along with Divine inspiration that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:4).

The "letter" of the mystery of God was finished in 1965 with the passing of the Prophet of Revelation 10:7. Twelve years later, in 1977, when she reached the age of accountability, the "Spirit" began to unfold the revelation to Christ's Bride. Forty-one years later, few within the circle of the Message see the revelation and seem satisfied with 'church,' yet what they have seen has terminated the world system for all Message virgins and ushered in the millennium for the wise.

According to Dr. Nick Lomb, Curator of Astronomy at the Sydney Observatory and Powerhouse Museum, "As the Hebrew Calendar is based on a 19-year lunar cycle, 2015 could be taken to correspond to 1977 in some aspects." This could be interesting if we subtract the Seventieth Week of Daniel.

The Prophet said, ". . . the churches are going to come together. And as they are even now controlling world politics, they will soon control the finances of the world. Then, if you don't belong to the world organization of churches, you won't be able to buy or to sell. You will lose all. Those who stay true to God and keep their garments clean from the defilement of this 'world-system' of church orders will be physically bereft" (ibid p. 265:1).

Notice, the pyramid of God represents his "holy mountain," that beautiful city of gold—transparently pure Deity—while Lucifer's pyramid is a city of the kind of gold that buys material luxuries, "horses, and chariots, and slaves, and the souls of men" (Revelation 18:11-17). The Roman Church is controlling the last or fourth Gentile Empire. "With the world church system under her Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system) will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world. Thus all the people have to belong to the world church system or be at the mercy of the elements for they cannot buy or sell without the mark of the beast in the hand or head. This mark in the head means that they will have to take the doctrine of the world church system which is trinitarianism, etc., and the mark in the hand which means to do the will of the world church. With this great power the church systems will persecute the true Bride. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching, etc. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches the true church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His Bride for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb (ibid. p. 377).

Revelation 21:10-11, 22-25, "In a vision he took me (your name here) to a great and high mountain from where I saw that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. Her lustre was like a most precious gem, crystal cut like jasper . . . No temple could be seen in the city, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are worshipped in it everywhere. And the city had no need of the Sun or Moon to light it: for the glory of God and of the Lamb illuminate it. And the nations of the saved shall walk by its Light, and the kings of the earth shall tithe the increase of their splendor, and its gates shall never be shut for there shall be no night there".

Whilst the Millennium temple will be the 144,000 elect Israelites in whose hearts Messiah and His Bride will dwell throughout the thousand years' peace, New Jerusalem is the elect of all Ages anointed by the transparent gold of the Shekinah, the dwelling place of God manifest in Christ and His Bride who are His temple, so there can be no shadow or darkness around the City. The nations of the "saved" will live and work around the Earth and deliver their tithes to the city where God is worshipped throughout eternity in the form of His glorified Family, Jesus Christ and His Bride, His Spoken Word Tabernacle. eb436.htm

101 Uses of Chaos

August 10, 2006– With George Bush still insisting on the need to fight "Islamic fascism" to the bitter end, Labor Party Defense Minister Amir Peretz imploring Israeli soldiers to turn southern Lebanon "to dust," and Iran's Mahmud Ahmedinejad declaring the need to wipe Israel off the map, the hubris, arrogance, and utter disdain for human life that has brought the Middle East to its latest precipice continues to harden the hearts of leaders and peoples alike. And all will be the losers because of it. Full Story: truthout.org

Israel's Self Deception

August 11, 2006– Jews are masters of propaganda but believing it ultimately may prove their downfall. The same applies to Westerners who accept the distorted Zionist view of reality. . . The pride of Israeli manhood is cannon fodder for globalist plans to build a "new Middle East," one that may not even include Israel. . .

star of DavidIsrael was not created so Jews could have a "national homeland." The Rothschilds who are Freemasons, created Israel in order to advance their plan for world dictatorship. They tipped their hand with the new Israeli Supreme Court building which they designed and funded. Full of Masonic symbolism bewildering to most Jews, it is the intended Supreme Court of the New World Order.

The Rothschilds' emblem is on the Israeli flag. Their image is on the currency. They financed the Knesset building, just like their henchmen, the Rockefellers donated the land for the UN. The hardest part for Jews to admit is that the Rothschilds financed Hitler through intermediaries, partly to motivate Jews to start a "Jewish" state. The reason that Israel enjoys a blank cheque with the US Treasury is that the Rothschilds control the credit of the US and Europe and every country except Iran and North Korea. . .

I have an Excellent Idea

In 1895 Edmond James de Rothschild, youngest son of Jacob (James) Mayer Rothschild visited Palestine and subsequently supplied the funds to found the first Jewish colonies there, this was to further their long term objective of creating a Rothschild-owned country.

In 1897 the Rothschilds organized the First Zionist Congress to promote Zionism (a political movement with the sole aim of moving all Jews into Rothschild's Jewish private nation state). They arranged its first meeting in Munich; however, due to extreme opposition from local Jews who were happy living in Germany, the meeting had to be moved to Basle, Switzerland. It was chaired by Ashkenazi Jew, Theodor Herzl, who wrote in his diary:

"It is essential that the sufferings of Jews . . . become worse . . . this will assist in realization of our plans . . . I have an excellent idea . . . I shall induce anti-Semites to liquidate Jewish wealth . . . The anti-Semites will assist us thereby in that they will strengthen the persecution and oppression of Jews. The anti-Semites shall be our best friends."

Herzl was subsequently elected President of the Zionist Organisation which adopted the Rothschild Red Hexagram as the Zionist flag which 51 years later became the flag of Israel. This year Edward Henry Harriman became a director of the Union Pacific Railroad and went on to take control of the Southern Pacific Railroad—all financed by the Rothschilds. (Can you associate this name with three other Jews—Prescott, George H. W., and George W. Bush)?

In a very famous speech in London in 1938, Zionist David Ben Gurion formulated the JA rescue policy as follows: "If I knew that it would be possible to save all the children in Germany by bringing them over to England and only half of them by transporting them to Eretz Yisrael, then I would opt for the second alternative. For we must weigh not only the lives of these children, but also the history of the People of Israel" (Lenni Brenner, Perdition, p. 76).

On February 18, 1943, Zionist Izaak Greenbaum, head of the Jewish Agency Rescue Committee, in a speech to the Zionist Executive Council stated:

"If I am asked, could you give from the UJA (United Jewish Appeal) monies to rescue Jews, I say, no and I say again no!"

"One cow in Palestine is worth more than all the Jews in Poland!"

This is not a surprise. How else could the Zionists ensure Jews leave the beautiful European cities in which they lived in order to settle in a desert!

In his book, The Founding Myths of Israeli Politics, Roger Garaudy documents the Zionist mastermind behind Jewish persecution in World War II. Full story: iamthewitness.com

Comment: Jack Bernstein wrote, The Life of an American Jew in Racist Marxist Israel; Lenni Brenner wrote, Zionism in the Age of the Dictators– A Reappraisal, the ideological background of Zionism and fascism, Herzl's pragmatic utilization of anti-Semitism and collaboration with Italian Fascism and German Nazism. His latest book is 51 Documents: Zionist Collaboration with the Nazis. Torah True Jews are against Zionism and crimes, and they equate Zionism with anti-Semitism; Jews Not Zionists and Neturei Karta are just two of many other Orthodox Jewish groups that repudiate Zionism.

The 'Dirty Work' of Zionism is Unfinished

August 4, 2006– Setting precedent could loosely be defined as establishing a pattern. In today's world when we turn on the television we are constantly and consistently bombarded by pro-Israeli propaganda, there are no two ways about it; it's a fact manifestly evident to anyone with the capacity to think. On the one hand we are currently being subjected to a smear campaign against Mel Gibson, who allegedly made some so called "anti-Semitic" comments about the Jews being behind all the wars in the world today, and on the other we are being told that no matter how many Lebanese children die, it's all Hezboallah's fault and/or the fault of their so-called sponsors, Syria and Iran. There is one consistency in all this, a common denominator that never changes, the Israeli's and Jews in general are always faultless, inevitably the victims of others, never the perpetrators, and anyone who questions this special status is a no good anti-Semite and/or, a terrorist.

We never hear in the media about the countless acts of terror Israel is guilty of. . . Full story: pcapostate.blogspot.com

Replacement Theology Part I

My precious Brothers and Sisters, there remains no further time for stubborn grandstanding on unscriptural errors based on the "letter" of Brother Branham's prophecy without the "Spirit." The countdown is on, and if you are not "a written epistle, read and known of all men," the daily news is! Please read the following headlines:

NATO Forces have taken over from US Forces in Afghanistan.

A reviving Holy (sic) Judaeo-Roman Empire has taken charge over Afghanistan which they believe is in desperate need of a Rothschild-controlled central bank. The purpose of the "war on terror" is bring the world under submission to the pagan Money Power. Not by deploying the City of London's Red Coats or their Bolshevik cut-throats, but electronic cash and high speed telecommunications. Physical violence is a logistically costly exercise, nowadays reserved for dissident nations and individuals. Under the Noahide laws introduced into the US by edict of George I, dissidence will not be tolerated (Revelation 6:11; 13:11-18; 20:4).

Revelation 13:11-18 calls this colony of the City of London, the image of the beast of Imperial Rome that transformed itself into Papal Rome at the First Nicaea Council of AD325. Daniel, chapters 2 and 7 to 12, and Revelation 17:1-6 explain how in her Papal form, Rome will rule the world including Israel until the consummation of all life on Earth, and empower the United States to "deceive the inhabitants of Earth by means of her nuclear power and the miracle of uniting disparate religious groups into a Protestant image of the beast, a World Council of Churches that will enforce the mark of Papal Rome, the trinitarian religion of ancient Babylon."

Nothing happens by chance. Jewish President F. D. Roosevelt said, "If something happens in politics you can bet it was planned that way." All of history is pre-planned. God has His unchanging plan set forth together with His foreknowledge in the Holy Bible, and Satan has his plans while we humans make free will decisions as to which plan we will fulfill.

The following quotations demonstrate in part Satan's plan:

Israel's first Prime Minister, non-Semitic self-styled Jew David Ben-Gurion, candidly described Zionist (i.e. Rothschild) aims in his diary of May 21, 1948: "The Achilles heel of the Arab coalition is the Lebanon. Muslim supremacy in this country is artificial and can easily be overthrown. A Christian State ought to be set up there, with its southern frontier on the river Litani. We would sign a treaty of alliance with this State. Thus when we have broken the strength of the Arab Legion and bombed Amman, we could wipe out Trans-Jordan, after that Syria would fall. And if Egypt still dared to make war on us, we would bomb Port Said, Alexandria and Cairo. We should thus end the war and would have but paid to Egypt, Assyria and Chaldea on behalf of our ancestors."

Note the vindictive "enmity" of Ben Gurion's race toward Babylonian and Assyrian root stock of the Israelites, and against the Egyptians, British, Germans, Americans et al prescribed by Genesis 3:15, and his repudiation of Deuteronomy 32:41. Ben-Gurion's plan formed the basis of Israel's treachery in 1967, and her aggression against Lebanon this past month? Is it any wonder the UN is having difficulty finding any nation willing to participate in a "peacekeeping force" in Lebanon. Their Illuminus leaders are no doubt familiar with Ben Gurion's chutzpah, and aware of the grand plan. Robert Fisk writes: "Desert of trapped corpses testify to Israel's failure."

According to the military blueprint of Rothschild's Albert Pike, drawn up between 1859 and 1871, three global wars and three major revolutions were to place the High Priests of the Luciferian Creed in position to usurp world powers. Two World Wars have been fought according to schedule. The Russian and Chinese revolutions have achieved success. Communism has been built up in strength and Christendom weakened. World War Three is now in the making. If it is allowed to break out, all remaining nations will be further weakened, and Islam and political Zionism will both be destroyed as world powers. The Arab world is made up of millions of people, many of whom are Christians, many are Jews, and many are Muslim.

Those who direct the Luciferian conspiracy realize only too well that before they can provoke the final social cataclysm, they must first of all bring about the destruction of Islam as a world power, because if Islam were not destroyed, it would undoubtedly line up with Christianity in the event of an all out war with Communism. If that were allowed to happen, the balance of power would be held by Christianity allied to Islam, and it would be very unlikely that both sides would conquer and exterminate each other [as required by the conspirators working under a different name and in another occupation] (Captain William Guy Carr, Satan, Prince of this World, p. 50).

The events of the past half century to the present indicate that we are rapidly approaching that period of the world's history when, if it were not for the intervention of God in sending us the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, "No flesh would survive for the translation" (Matthew 24:22).

The Masonic motto shouts "Out of Chaos, Order," and their Illuminati logo on the Great Seal of the United States signals a New Secular Order. Under another name and in a different occupation the 'Hidden Hand' creates strategic chaos that will realize his pre-planned order. Thus there was an attack on Pearl Harbor before the alien-controlled US Administration could justify declaring war on Japan, and a 9/11 before they could make war on the Islamic nations.

There must be an action before there can be a reaction.

Just before the Zionist Jew Winston Churchill visited Palestine in March, 1921, Rothschild agent Chaim Weizmann made an official statement of policy in which he said, "We will establish ourselves in Palestine whether you like it or not . . . You can hasten our arrival or you can equally retard it. It is however better for you to help us so as to avoid our constructive powers being turned into a destructive power which will overthrow the world" (Judische Rundschau, 1 No. 4, 1920).

Weizmann's statement must be studied in conjunction with another declaration made by an international banker to a gathering of Zionists in Budapest in 1919. When discussing the probabilities of a super-government he was quoted by Comte de St. Aulaire as saying: "In the management of the New World we give proof of our organization both for revolution and for construction by the creation of the League of Nations, which is our work. Bolshevism is the accelerator, and the League of Nations is the brake on the mechanism of which we supply both the motive force and the guiding power . . . What is the end? That is already determined by our mission" (Comte de Saint-Aulaire, Geneva versus Peace, p. 83). One World government.

The two statements combined show the international extent of their secret ambitions as confirmed by this report published in "Common Sense" by Mr. Eustace Mullins on the speech of Rabbi Emanuel Rabinovich before a special meeting of the Emergency Council of European Rabbis in Budapest, Hungary, January 12, 1952:

"Greetings, my children: You have been called here to recapitulate the principal steps of our new programme. As you know, we had hoped to have twenty years between wars to consolidate the great gains which we made from World War II, but our increasing numbers in certain vital areas is arousing opposition to us, and we must now work with every means at our disposal to precipitate World War III within five years.

"The goal for which we have striven so concertedly for three thousand years is at last within our reach, and because its fulfillment as so apparent, it behooves us to increase our efforts, and our caution, tenfold. I can safely promise you that before ten years have passed, our race will take its rightful place in the world, with every Jew a king, and every Gentile a slave. (Applause from the gathering). You remember the success of our propaganda campaign during the 1930's, which aroused anti-American passions in Germany at the same time as we were arousing anti-German passions in America, a campaign which culminated in the Second World War. A similar propaganda campaign is now being waged intensively throughout the world. A war fever is being worked up in Russia by an incessant anti-American barrage, while a nation-wide anti-Communist scare is sweeping America. This campaign is forcing all of the smaller nations to choose between the partnership of Russia or an alliance with the United States.

"Our most pressing problem at the moment is to inflame the lagging militaristic spirit of the Americans. The failure of the Universal Military Training Act was a great setback to our plans, but we are assured that a suitable measure will be rushed through Congress immediately after the 1952 elections. The Russian, as well as the Asiatic peoples, are well under control and offer no objections to war, but we must wait to secure the Americans. This we hope to do with the issue of anti-Semitism, which worked so well in uniting the Americans against Germany. We are counting heavily on reports of anti-Semitic outrages in Russia to help whip up indignation in the United States and produce a front of solidarity against the Soviet power. Simultaneously, to demonstrate to Americans the reality of anti-Semitism, we will advance through new sources large sums of money to outspokenly anti-Semitic elements in America to increase their effectiveness, and we shall stage anti-Semitic outbreaks in several of their larger cities. This will serve the double purpose of exposing reactionary sectors in America, which can be silenced, and of welding the United States into a devoted anti-Russian unit.

"Within five years, this programme will achieve its objective, the Third World War, which will surpass in destruction all previous contests. Israel, of course, will remain neutral, and when both sides are devastated and exhausted we will arbitrate, sending our Control Commission into all wrecked countries. This war will end for all time our struggle against the Gentiles.

Rabbi Emanuel RabinovichWe will openly reveal our identity with the races of Asia and Africa. I can state with assurance that the last generation of white children is now being born. Our Control Commissions will, in the interests of peace and wiping out inter-racial tensions, forbid the whites to mate with whites. The white women must cohabit with members of the dark races, the white men with black women. Thus the white race will disappear, for mixing the dark with the white means the end of the white man, and our most dangerous enemy will become only a memory. We shall embark upon an era of ten thousand years of peace and plenty, the Pax Judaica, and our race will rule undisputed over the world. Our superior intelligence will easily enable us to retain mastery over a world of dark peoples."

Question from the gathering: "Rabbi Rabinovich, what about the various religions after the Third World War?"

Rabinovich: "There will be no more religions. Not only would the existence of a priest class remain a constant danger to our rule, but belief in an after-life would give spiritual strength to irreconcilable elements in many countries, and enable them to resist us. We will, however, retain the rituals and customs of Judaism, as the mark of our hereditary ruling caste, strengthening our racial laws so that no Jew will be allowed to marry outside our race, nor will any stranger be accepted by us.

"We may have to repeat the grim days of World War II, when we were forced to let the Hitlerite bandits sacrifice some of our people, in order that we may have adequate documentation and witnesses to legally justify our trial and execution of the leaders of America and Russia as war criminals, after we have dictated the Peace. I am sure you will need little preparation for such a duty, for sacrifice has always been the watchword of our people, and the death of a few thousand Jews in exchange for world leadership is indeed a small price to pay.

"To convince you of the certainty of that leadership, let me point out to you how we have turned all of the inventions of the white man into weapons against him. His printing presses and radios are the mouth pieces of our desires, and his heavy industry manufactures the instruments which he sends out to arm Asia and Africa against him. Our interests in Washington are greatly extending the Four Point Programme for developing industry in backward areas of the world, so that after the industrial plants and cities of Europe and America are destroyed by atomic warfare, the whites can offer no resistance against the large masses of the dark races, who will maintain an unchallenged technological superiority."

"And so, with the vision of world victory before you, go back to your countries and intensify your good work, until that approaching day when Israel will reveal herself in all her glorious destiny as the Light of the World." Illuminati means "Holder of the Light."

This speech also confirms the manner in which the Secret Powers have deliberately stirred up anti-Semitism to suit their purposes and also anti-Communism. It proves the Illuminati have used Communism, Zionism and Fascism under the Sixth Vial to further their secret ambitions (Revelation 16:12-13), and will use nominally-Christian democracy against Communism to bring about the next phase of their long range plan as Jesus foretold in Revelation 17. But the most illuminating feature of the speech is the fact it discloses the manner in which the Illuminati use a Jewish Rabbi to convince other co-religionists that they will be the governing class in the New World Order—a fact that past history would indicate is very doubtful. Satanism . . . will rule (based on Pawns in the Game, by Captain William Guy Carr, p. 104-107).

As we signaled in last week's editorial, a new "false flag" operation was perpetrated by the not so 'Hidden Hand':

Former NSA Official: Terror Plot Cooked by Bush Blair Mafia

August 11 2006– According to knowledgeable sources in the UK and other countries, the Tony Blair government, under siege by a Labor Party revolt, cleverly cooked up a new "terror" scare to avert the public's eyes away from his increasing political woes.

British law enforcement; neo-con and intelligence operatives in the United States, Israel and Britain; and Rupert Murdoch's global media empire cooked up the terrorist plot, liberally borrowing from the failed 1995 "Oplan Bojinka" plot by Pakistan, and Philippines-based terrorist Ramzi Ahmad Yousef to crash 11 trans-Pacific airliners bound from Asia to the United States. In the latest plot, it is reported that liquid bombs were to be detonated on 10 trans-Atlantic planes outbound from Britain to the United States.

British and American authorities permitted a man with a liquid bomb to board a US-bound flight in Heathrow on August 6– the pilot foiled secret UK-US attempt to hype an incident en-route to or at Boston Logan.

The London terror plan was "known" last Sunday by British and American authorities, according to the Indian press. American Airlines flight 109 from London Heathrow to Boston boarded a family of five . . .

British sources report that the reason for the delay in informing the airlines and traveling public about the liquid bomb on the American flight was to maximize the beneficial political impact for Blair and George W. Bush, both plummeting in the polls from the situations in Iraq and Lebanon.

. . . What prompted Murdoch and Blair to hype a new global "terror" threat was what Murdoch learned from eavesdropping on the phone calls of Prince Charles' staff at the future king's office, home, and limousine. The eavesdropping revealed that Charles was working with Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown, who is to the left of Blair, to conduct the same type of political maneuver that John Major used to oust Margaret Thatcher from office.

. . . What is suspect is the Murdoch media empire that makes up news and commits illegal acts to provide cover for the false flag operations being conducted by Britain, the US, and Israel.

Pakistan's Inter Service Intelligence agency has helped provide the cover story for the alleged liquid bombers. Working with British and US intelligence, the ISI says it broke up the plot after arresting terrorist suspects in Lahore and Karachi. However, the ISI claims the men were affiliated with the Kashmiri terrorist group Lashkar-e-Toiba, a group that is run and funded by the ISI itself. . .

Muslim Leaders say Foreign Policy makes UK Target

Leading UK Muslims have united to tell Tony Blair his foreign policy in Iraq and on Israel offers "ammunition to extremists" and puts British lives "at increased risk." An open letter signed by three of the four Muslim MPs, three of the four peers, and 38 organisations including the Muslim Council of Britain and the Muslim Association of Britain, was greeted with dismay in Downing Street.

Comment: Is Downing Street playing dumb? The objective of the 'Hidden Hand' of the oligarchy is to put everyone worldwide "at increased risk," causing such chaos that every nation becomes ungovernable and susceptible to their coup for global hegemony, in the first instance behind the 'front' of Rome.

Comment: The term is intended to "inflame anti-Muslim tensions." How else can they intimidate these innocents to fight World War III between the political Zionists and Islam? To date the aggression has all been one-sided. The Muslims will not act out the plans of Rothschild and Albert Pike as annunciated by David Ben Gurion. Only the political Zionists want war.

US gave Green Light to Lebanon Attack

The New Yorker's Seymour Hersh has alleged that Israel had planned a military strategy to take on Hezbollah in Lebanon, and shared that strategy with the Bush administration well before the kidnappings last month that triggered the current war . . . the United States gave the green light to the attack on Hezbollah because of its own plans for Iran . . . what a good idea. Let the Israelis do it. . .

One, we're having a tremendous fight inside our own military with our own plans for bombing Iran, and the White House is very eager for the Air Force to come up with a very tough plan to take out the Iranians. . . So there you have a chance to show that bombing can work against a tough, dug-in target. . .

Two, if you're going to go to Iran, one of the deterrents is Hezbollah's missiles. . . the United States cannot attack Iran as long as Hezbollah can attack Haifa and Tel Aviv with missiles. We have to get rid of those. So that gets rid of those.

And three, we show everybody, all those sceptics in the military, Look, bombing can work. Full story: abc.net.au

Comment: Typing the incumbent in the White House with pharaoh, Brother Branham said, "Raamses in Egypt was growing. His power's growing. The natural man, Raamses, was growing. The natural man, the antichrist, is growing now through politics. He's already got to the White House. In religion, he's got all the people so scrupled up till actually they'd fall right for it. And the denominational leaders . . . Practically every church in the nation is already in the confederation of churches. Raamses is growing, and they're all uniting together, and that's what they'll have. And what does it do? It makes a power, a beast just like the first one.

Then there's a persecution coming upon all those who won't unite with it, and a boycott. It'll be too late then; you've already took the mark. Don't say, "I'll do it then." You better do it now. Raamses was growing.

And he didn't know what the spiritual side was; he was only a political genius, that he could take Ethiopia and all the rest of the countries under military might, and that's all he knew was the military might (The Third Exodus, p. 24:5-7; 20:4).

A German Intelligence report examines the Role of the (so-called) Christian Fundamentalists like George II in American Politics and their unscriptural fantasies.

Lebanese direct Growing Anger at US

With his arm raised and fist clenched, Sheikh Hussein furiously expressed a sentiment rapidly taking hold here. "We know who our first enemy is: America." Hospitals were running out of food, fuel and other supplies in southern Lebanon. Medecins Sans Frontieres said that since an Israeli air strike destroyed the last coastal river crossing for trucks to the south on Monday, aid agencies had been reduced to carrying supplies by hand over a log across the Litani river.

Anti-War Challengers across US get a Vote of Confidence

In October 2002, lawmakers in Congress were presented with a pre-election test about where they stood on Iraq, and most answered it by siding with President Bush, voting to authorize his use of force against Saddam Hussein and promising an anxious electorate that they would be protected against a potential threat from Iraq. Four years later, with nearly 2,600 US soldiers dead and no trace of the weapons of mass destruction that the White House said Hussein possessed; it is the Iraq war hawks who are on the defensive.

Judas' spirit is with us today as the Prophet foretold. The Jews, hoodwinked and blindfolded by false leaders, imagine they are Israelites and know not they are "useful idiots," whose mob fanaticism is directed by the 'Hidden Hand' who also preys on the carnal mind of nominal Christians: his pawns in a plan to checkmate God by fulfilling the Dark Side of prophecy and gain world hegemony through his Roman bishop. Our blind religious, political and business leaders of the blind have all been compromised in some way.

The cruelest, most wicked treachery comes from Jewish and Gentile religious leaders who for political purposes would have us believe that Jews are the children of Israel and sons of Moses when according to Scripture and contemporary records the vast majority of so-called Jews are Gentiles. Those who are in Adam's race are being robbed of their sole opportunity for salvation and eternal Life which they must secure in the Gentile dispensation. Thereafter God will be dealing exclusively with an election of Israelites of the blood of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob resident in Israel.

Jews and Gentiles are taught that Judaism is the religion of ancient Israel and the "elder brother" of Christianity. This is a lie. It was Flavius Josephus, writing for the instruction of Greeks and Romans who coined the word "Judaism" in the first century in order to pit it against Hellenism . . . by Hellenism was understood the civilization, comprising language, poetry, religion, art, science, manners, customs, institutions, which. . . had spread from Greece, its original home, over vast regions of Europe, Asia and Africa . . . The Christians eagerly seized upon the name. . . The Jews themselves, who intensely detested the traitor Josephus, refrained from reading his works . . . hence the term Judaism coined by Josephus remained absolutely unknown to them . . . it was only in comparatively recent times, after the Jews became familiar with modern Christian literature, that they began to name their religion Judaism" (Rabbi Adolph Moses and Rabbi H.G. Enlow, "Yahvism, and Other Discourses," p. 1).

Judaism is Pharisaism based on the Talmud and anathema to Yahweh Torah: ". . . Pharisaism became Talmudism, Talmudism became Medieval Rabbinism, and Medieval Rabbinism became Modern Rabbinism. But throughout these changes in name . . . the spirit of the ancient Pharisees survives, unaltered . . . From Palestine to Babylonia; from Babylonia to North Africa, Italy, Spain, France and Germany; from these to Poland, Russia, and eastern Europe generally, ancient Pharisaism has wandered . . . "demonstrates the enduring importance which attaches to Pharisaism as a religious movement ..." (Rabbi Louis Finkelstein, The Pharisees, The Sociological Background of Their Faith", p. XXI).

We are told that the Holy Book of the Jews is the Old Testament of our Bible, however when a Jewish leader says "Torah," he is not referring to the Pentateuch or five Books of Moses but to the fraudulent "Oral Torah" or Babylonian Talmud which negates the Torah (Matthew 15:1-9). As a Rule "Torah" is verbal sleight of hand and means Talmud, the deceit being justified as the alias "Oral Torah." The word "Torah" does not refer to the Bible in Sanhedrin 59a: "A heathen who studies the Torah deserves death, for it is written, Moses commanded us a law for an inheritance; it is our inheritance, not theirs." Reference is then made to the "Noachide laws" which the non-Jew may study "but not laws which do not pertain to them." Also: ". . . (the) objection was to the studying of the Oral Law . . . Rabbi Tohanan feared the knowledge of Gentiles in matters of Jurisprudence, as they would use it against the Jews in their opponents' courts." In other words, since all Talmud laws discriminate against the non-Jew and rank him as an animal, knowledge of this was dangerous. The Jewish Encyclopedia is still more open about Sanhedrin 59a, threatening death to any Jew who revealed the "Torah" laws (by which is implied the fraudulent "Oral Torah" or Talmud) to Gentiles "for such knowledge might have operated against the Jews in our opponents' courts." This follows a dissertation on the laws on cheating and getting the best of Gentiles in trade and in court. "Noachim" is just another name for non-Jews, using this double-talk to deceive the reader . . .

Gentiles May Not Be Taught the Torah (i.e. the fraudulent "Oral Torah" or Talmud– Ed).

Inasmuch as the Jews had their own distinct jurisdiction, it would have been unwise to reveal their laws to the Gentiles, for such knowledge might have operated against the Jews in their opponents' courts. Hence the Talmud prohibited the teaching to a Gentile of the Torah, "the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob" (Deut. xxxiii. 4). R. Johanan says of one so teaching: "Such a person deserves death" (an idiom used to express indignation). . .

Resh Lakish (d. 278) said, "A Gentile observing the Sabbath deserves death" (Sanh. 58b). This refers to a Gentile who accepted the seven laws of the Noachidae, inasmuch as 'the Sabbath is a sign between God and Israel alone" . . . "not even on Mondays [is the Gentile allowed to rest]" . . . (Read the Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. V, p. 619– 622, Gentiles").

Bava Metzia 33a states: "Those who devote themselves to reading the Bible exercise a certain virtue, but not very much; those who study the Mishnah exercise virtue for which they will receive a reward; those however who take upon themselves to study the Gemara exercize the highest virtue."

Michael Hoffman III comments, "The Bible ranks last in the Talmud's scale of importance; there is "not much" virtue in studying it. But the canonical rabbinic texts (Mishnah and especially the Talmud, i.e. Gemara) are rewarding and of the highest virtue".

Sanhedrin 90a states: "Rabbi Akiva says: also someone who reads heretical books containing interpretations of the Bible that do not follow Rabbinic tradition" are "sinners who do not have a portion in the world to come."

Sabbath 116a states: "The books of the Christians may not be saved from the fire but they must be burnt."

Ministers in the circle of this end-time Message who perpetuate Jewish lies are the enemy of honorable Jews and Israelites seeking the Truth and deceivers of their own congregations. Their unwise disciples have the "letter" of the Message but a second-hand religion without the Spirit of God (Acts 17:11; Romans 3:4; Galatians 1:8-9; Ephesians 4:5; I Thessalonians 5:21; Revelation 22:17-19).

The purpose of Zionism was to force Jews to migrate to Palestine to establish Rothschilds' private fiefdom from which they can rule the world. Jews are pawns in their political goal, which is to be achieved by preying upon the superstitious beliefs of misguided religious people and harnessing the directed energies of ancient hatreds and rivalries.

The enemy of God and His people established the modern state of Israel by stealing the land, expelling its Arab and Hebrew occupants, both equally despised and persecuted in Gentile Israel and by continuing the deception that Jews are Israelites (Genesis 27:39-41; Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2, 8). However, God is working this evil for good to gather the dispersed children of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—not Jews—into the Land of Israel, the only place on earth where He can deal with Israel as a nation under the covenant.

World War I was fought to enable the Illuminati to overthrow the Tzars (in vindictive payback for their aid to President Lincoln when their banksters were seeking to take over the United States) and turn Russia into the stronghold of atheistic Judaeo-Communism. The differences stirred up between the British and German Empires were used to foment this war. After the war ended, Communism was built up to be used to destroy other governments and weaken religions.

Of the Treaty of Versailles Hitler wrote: "It was not a British interest (intention) but, in the first place, a Jewish one to destroy Germany." He also wrote: "Even in England there is a continual struggle going on between the representatives of British States' interests and the Jewish World dictatorship. Whilst England is exhausting herself in maintaining her position in the world, the Jew to-day is a rebel in England and the struggle against the Jewish world menace will be started there also" (Pawns in the Game, p. 188).

Since the Great War the international bankers had set up twenty-six central banks. They were modeled after the Federal Reserve Banks in the United States, which had been established in 1913 according to the theories of Mr. Paul Warburg, the German who had gone to America in 1907 and become a partner in Kuhn-Loeb & Co. of New York.

Mr. Paul Warburg's creation of 1913 had been steadily attempting to set up a 'Central Banking Organization' which would acknowledge no authority on this planet as above it. Hitler knew that if Warburg and associates had their way, the Bank of International Settlements would become as autocratic in regard to international affairs, as the (Rothschild-owned) Bank of England is in regard to British National Affairs and Foreign Policy. . . (ibid, p. 154).

"On the ruins of the natural and genealogical aristocracy of the Goyim we have set up the aristocracy of our educated class headed by the aristocracy of money. The qualifications for this aristocracy we have established in wealth, which is dependent upon us, and in knowledge, for which our learned elders provide the motive force" (Protocol 1).

World War II was fomented using the differences between Fascists and Political Zionists so that National Socialism or Nazism would be destroyed and the power of Political Zionism increased so that the Zionist state of Israel could be established in Palestine, and the world made a safe place for Communism. Nationalism and nation states must all be destroyed to remove any organized opposition to the sons of Cain who are "citizens of the world" with no inheritance (Genesis 4:11-14). This is the objective of the UN, Globalization and Free Trade Agreements. International Communism was to be built up until it was equal in strength with united Christendom then contained and kept in check until required for the final social cataclysm.

This is the program Rabbi Rabinovich was annunciating in his address to the rabbis. Jesus prophesied Albert Pike's blueprint for world hegemony would take place under the Sixth Vial, and it has. The de-industrialization of the once Christian West is "preparing the way of the kings of the East," and by devastating Iraq, George II eliminated the historical buffer between Christendom and her enemies (Revelation 16:12-14).

World War III has been fomented between the Political Zionists and innocent Islam. It was to be directed in such a manner that the Arab World and Islam, and Political Zionism (including the State of Israel) will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining nations, once more divided against each other on this issue and forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically.

Zionism is a political weapon employed to establish the State of Israel for the Illuminati, and then bring all nations to war in the Middle East so that they can impersonate the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. However, innocent Islam has no mind for war, particularly the unequal war of homemade rockets against one of the most powerful nuclear forces in the world, so the nations are going to move "peacekeeping knights" into position on this grand chessboard called Lebanon, where they will cry, "Peace, peace"! But there will be no peace. At the Seventh Trump, earthquakes will sink Los Angeles, split the Mount of Olives and destroy the Dome of the Rock, igniting the "hot" phase of the war.

The Muslim peoples will attack Jerusalem in order to defend the Mosque, and Russia will invade the United States. Being cast out, Satan will incarnate the pope and under a coalition of world religions he will restore peace and become head over one World government in Jerusalem. With this objective accomplished and Israel a quasi-Christian state, Zionism and the Zionists will have fulfilled their utility. But when 144,000 elect Israelites are born-again in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week and the mark of the beast is forced, Jews will either convert to Judaeo-Catholicism and martyr the elect Israelites, or ally with Judaeo-Communism and make war on the United States and Vatican Rome.

If you are a child of God born of the end-time Message, Brother Judas will not deceive you with replacement theology: Jews are not Israelites or even a Semitic people; under the Old Covenant the sabbath was a "rest" for the body and mortal spirit that could be observed only in the land of Israel whilst under the New Covenant it is the new birth or "rest" for the soul attained only in the "present Truth": the Word for your day; God is one Person, not a trinity; water baptism is in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, not in three Titles of Father, Son and Holy Ghost; Israel will be ruled by Gentiles unto the consummation of all life on earth, not by the sons of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and until the Seventh Trumpet sounds God will be redeeming His Gentile Church which is Spiritual Israel but not the sons of Jacob. eb437.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; it is good to fellowship around God's unchanging Word.

World War III is the controlled conflict between political Zionism and Islam to weaken the power of both elements; to grant Rome world hegemony under "the real Pope of the universe, the Patriarch of the International Church" (Protocol 17) and make him president of one world government ruling from Jerusalem; to suppress the present leadership of Russia after it has successfully invaded mainland USA, heightening the enmity between Russia and the USA and reviving Communism which will ultimately destroy the false church and the United States; to make America subservient to Rome as enforcer of her will; to ally the international banksters with Rome in order to refinance the US dollar and restore the world economy; and to restore Khazar dominion over "the kingdom of the North . . . as Gog, chief ruler of Magog".

Russia Overtakes Saudi Arabia as World's Leading Oil Producer– OPEC

August 23, 2006– Statistics recently published by the oil cartel OPEC show that Russia is currently extracting more oil than Saudi Arabia, making it the biggest producer of "black gold" in the world, the British Financial Times reported. . . Full story: mosnews.com  truthout.org

Comment: Brother Branham said, "The word of the little lamb that rose up in Revelations 13, a lamb. Two little. . . Probably a little horn—civil and ecclesiastical power. But after is lamb, freedom of religion and so forth. But after while, he spake like a beast, like the dragon, and exercised all the power the dragon did before him, a bitter religious persecution. We're nearing that time."

"You remember, Church, that you're living in the best day that you've ever will live in, right now, until Jesus comes. It shall gradually. . . Not gradually, but rapidly get worse and worse."

"When Russia goes down there to get that oil, look out. That's all she needs. That's what the prophet said it would do. And we're ready for it then. So Church, get ready to meet Christ" (The Angel of the Lord, #51-0502).

7 Facts You Might Not Know about the Iraq War

August 20, 2006– The final link in the terrorist chain can also be traced back to the occupation. In January of 2005, Newsweek broke the story that the US was establishing (Shiite) "death squads" within the Iraqi Ministry of Interior, modeled after the assassination teams that the CIA had helped organize in El Salvador during the 1980s. These death squads were intended to assassinate activists and supporters of the Sunni resistance. Particularly after the bombing of the Golden Dome, an important Shia shrine in Samarra, in March 2006, they became a fixture in Baghdad, where thousands of corpses—virtually all Sunni men—have been found with signs of torture, including electric-drill holes, in their bodies and bullet holes in their heads. Here, again, the logic is the same: to use terror to stop the Sunni community from nurturing and harboring both the terrorist car bombers and the anti-American resistance fighters.

While there is disagreement about whether the Americans, the Shia-controlled Iraqi Ministry of Defense, or the Shia political parties should shoulder the most responsibility for loosing these death squads on Baghdad, one conclusion is indisputable: They have earned their place in the ignominious triumvirate of Iraqi terrorism.

One might say that the war has converted one of President Bush's biggest lies into an unimaginably horrible truth: Iraq is now the epicenter of worldwide terrorism . . .

When the US toppled the Hussein regime; there was little sectarian sentiment outside of Kurdistan, which had longstanding nationalist ambitions. Even today, opinion polls show that more than two-thirds of Sunnis and Shia stand opposed to the idea of any further weakening of the central government and are not in favor of federation, no less dividing Iraq into three separate nations.

Nevertheless, ethnic cleansing by both Shia and Sunni has become the order of the day in many of the neighborhoods of Baghdad, replete with house burnings, physical assaults, torture, and murder, all directed against those who resist leaving their homes. These acts are aimed at creating religiously homogeneous neighborhoods. Full story: truthout.org

Former British Ambassador says Terror Alert is "Propaganda"

August 16, 2006– Former British Ambassador to Uzbekistan Craig Murray says the alleged transatlantic liquid bomb plot is staged-managed propaganda on behalf of Bush and Blair—who yearn for a "new 9/11" to absolve them of domestic political trouble.

Murray previously blew the whistle on how the British government was using evidence obtained from torture in Uzbekistan—inflicted on its population by the US-funded regime of Islam Karimov—the dictator who likes to boil people alive. . .

"None of the alleged terrorists had made a bomb. None had bought a plane ticket. Many did not even have passports, which given the efficiency of the UK Passport Agency would mean they couldn't be a plane bomber for quite some time. . .

Freedom and Democracy Down Under

Interviewed on the Robyn Williams' radio program, Ockham's Razor last Sunday, Melbourne barrister Julian Burnside said:

In late 2005, the Commonwealth Parliament passed draconian anti-terrorist legislation. One provision allows a member of the Federal Police to apply for a preventative detention order in relation to a person. A preventative detention order will result in a person being jailed for up to 14 days because it is thought that they might otherwise commit an offence. A preventative detention order is obtained in secret, without a trial of any sort. The person jailed is not allowed to know the evidence which was used against them.

People can now be legally 'disappeared' in Australia, and you can be jailed for publishing the fact.

Another provision allows the Federal Police to obtain a control order, which can include house arrest for up to 12 months, without access to telephone or the internet. Control orders are obtained without any trial, and on secret evidence.

Any challenge to orders like these is likely to be frustrated by the Attorney-General, who has power to prevent a party from hearing the evidence against him, or even from hearing the government's submissions in his case. For example, a recent certificate by the Attorney-General certifies that disclosure of the contents of the government's documents in the case would be contrary to the public interest. And it also certifies that evidence proposed to be adduced and submissions proposed to be made in the case are of such a nature that the disclosure would be contrary to the public interest.

And he goes on to withhold his consent to any person representing the applicant being present in the tribunal while the evidence is given and the submissions are made. By that certificate he guarantees a secret trial on secret evidence.

In addition, the Attorney-General can prevent a party from producing exculpatory evidence in legal proceedings if that evidence might adversely affect our national security interests. Unfortunately, our 'national security interest' is a defined expression, and the definition is extremely wide. Revealing the CIA's activities in Baghdad or Guantanamo Bay is deemed, by the legislation, to affect our national security interests.

Secret trials on secret evidence are a real possibility in Australia right now. The legislation which makes it possible is a betrayal of basic democratic principles. It is a supreme irony that the legislation which makes it possible has been justified as part of the war which is supposed to save our democracy from terrorism. Full story: abc.net.au

Comment: Treasurer and Prime Ministerial hopeful Peter Costello announced last week that the 'war on terrorism' is likely to last 50 years or more. For an abstract noun, 'terrorism' fights like a Trojan. Mr. Costello may have to prevail upon Noah Webster to excise it from the English language.

Replacement Theology Part II

Does your faith rest on the immovable rock of a clear understanding of God's unchanging Word? Have you personally proven your revelation from Genesis to Revelation, with true historical records and scientific evidences? Or are you relying on a second-hand religion passed on by your parents, the media, a preacher, or this Newsletter?

Men make mistakes. Your to duty God and your obligation to your soul is to "receive the word with all readiness of mind, then search the Scriptures daily, whether those things are so." In Ages gone by when the Book was sealed God placed man's ignorance of the hidden mysteries under the Blood (Deuteronomy 29:29), but since "the mystery of God is finished," and there is no more Blood on the Mercy Seat, God will only receive the faith of Jesus Christ as He is no longer 'winking' at the error of PART-Word.

If you are a child of God born of the end-time Message, Brother Judas will not deceive you with his replacement theology. You will know from your Bible and their own records that Jews are not Israelites or even a Semitic people; that Semitic Arabs and other followers of Islam do not and cannot present any threat to Israel or the world because God said they will never reach agreement among themselves (Genesis 16:12); that under the Old Covenant the sabbath was a rest for the body and mortal spirit and can be observed only in the land of Israel, whilst under the New Covenant it is new birth and rest for the soul attained only in the "present Truth," or Word for your day. God's children know He is one Person, not a trinity; that water baptism is in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ not in three Titles of Father, Son and Holy Ghost; that Israel will be ruled by Gentiles unto the consummation of all life on earth, not by the sons of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and that until the Seventh Trumpet sounds God will be redeeming His Gentile Church which is Spiritual Israel and not the sons of Jacob as the British Israel/Christian Identity cult believe.

Isaiah and Paul taught that natural Israel will be spiritually blind until the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week when that elect nation of 144,000 is born-again in one day. When the Northern Kingdom forsook the faith of Moses and worshipped the Babylonian trinity God sent Sennacharib to destroy the nation, disperse its people among the Assyrian conquests and transport strangers into Israel. (The United Nations world government employs the same strategy to divide and conquer the Gentile lands by refugee resettlement plans. The League and United Nations have eliminated peace since World War I (Matthew 24:8). Contrived war, rebellion, rape and pillage create impoverished inassimilable human time bombs guaranteed to explode civil unrest in host countries led by politicians ignorant of God's Word, and who unwisely grant them residency thus becoming accessories to a horrendous crime designated to destroy their own race by miscegenation and divide their nations as Jesus foretold (Matthew 24:37; Genesis 6:1-4). This is not to imply these innocent human pawns are not 'good people' but to expose the sons of Cain working under another name and in a different occupation behind the 'front' of the UN). The so-called "lost" ten tribes remain in those countries where their forefathers were driven and find themselves on the short list of Esau's City of London marked for ethnic cleansing (Genesis 27:39-41). Although most of these people are probably Muslims today, a remnant will return as Isaiah 11:11 and Daniel 11 foretold.

Emulating her sister, the Southern Kingdom committed idolatry with the trinity which was spiritual adultery against the one true God (Hosea 1– 2) who sent Nebuchadnezzar to conquer Judea and take her people captive. Because of subsequent disobedience God had Nebuchadnezzar destroy Jerusalem and burn the temple. Thus began the "times of the Gentiles" which will continue until the consummation of all life on earth (Daniel 2:31-45; 9:27; Revelation 11:1-2, 8).

The Judeans prospered in Babylon as the Jews prosper in Gentile nations today and had no desire to return to Jerusalem any more than modern Jews wish to relocate to Israel, so for the next 1,500 years Babylon remained the center of Jewish scholarship. Here they became increasingly worldly, adopting Babylon's fractional reserve banking system, mercantile law and calendar. They devised the synagogue form of worship wherein rabbis usurped the Levitical priesthood, and reasoning mired THUS SAITH THE LORD with replacement theology—eventually codified as the Jerusalem and the Babylonian Talmud—a perversion that "makes the Word of God of no effect" (Matthew 15:1-9).

The Talmud, which Jews deceitfully refer to as "the oral Torah," is a lewd book of blasphemy and unimaginable depravity that is the antithesis of Moses and the prophets.

Replacement theology of man-made traditions has also apostatized denominational Christianity and is present in the circle of this Message. We will examine the widespread heresy commonly called "Two Souls;" in theological terms, Manichaeism or dualism, later adopted by Cabalistic Jews whose Gnostic reasoning is not dissimilar to the enticing manner in which the "letter" of the Message has been assembled to present a vision not evident when the "Spirit" is consulted.

Manichaeism is a sect founded by Manes, a Persian, who in the third century became a nominal Christian and sought to introduce into Christian theology and philosophy the Parsee conception of the dualism of God and Matter. There is no doubt that his followers, in developing the teachings of the founder of the sect, were influenced to a large extent by the Gnostic dualism, and laid claim, as the Gnostics did, to a special gnosis. They concerned themselves chiefly with the problem of evil, assuming the existence of two eternal principles, the one essentially good and the other essentially evil, and deriving from the latter all the evil, physical and moral, which exists in the world. They maintained that from the good principle there emanated, in the first place, primeval man, who was the first to enter into the struggle with evil; in the next place the Spirit of Life, who rescued primeval man from the powers of darkness; finally the World-Soul, Christ, the Son of primeval man, who restored to man the light which he had lost in the struggle with darkness. They distinguished in man two souls—the soul that animates the body, and the soul of light, which is part of the World-Soul, Christ. The former is the creation of the powers of darkness; the latter is an emanation from light itself. Thus, man's soul is a battlefield on which light and darkness are at war, as they are in the universe. Human action depends on the outcome of the contest: there is no freedom of choice. All matter is evil and the cause of evil (nd.edu).

Manichaeism is a dualistic religion, a theme gleaned from the Persian religion of Zoroastrianism. Mani postulated two natures that existed from the beginning: light and darkness. The realm of light lived in peace, while the realm of darkness was in constant conflict with itself. The universe is the temporary result of an attack of the realm of darkness on the realm of light, and was created by the Living Spirit, an emanation of the light realm, out of the mixture of light and darkness.

The Manicheans made every effort to include all known religious traditions in their faith. As a result, they preserved many apocryphal Christian works, such as the Acts of Thomas, that otherwise would have been lost. And although Mani was eager to describe himself as a "disciple of Jesus Christ", the early Christian church rejected him as a heretic.

A key Manichaean belief is that there is no omnipotent good power. This claim addresses a theoretical part of the problem of evil by denying the infinite perfection of God and postulating the two equal and opposite powers mentioned previously. (Grand Commander, Sovereign Pontiff of Universal Freemasonry, Albert Pike, postulated a similar belief in his book Morals and Dogma).

Augustine of Hippo (who taught that it was in harmony with the Word of God to kill the heretics and apostates of Roman Catholicism) had been a Manichean for eight or nine years, thereafter he became a potent adversary of Manichaeism according to his Confessions of St. Augustine. His treatise concerning the Manicheans and their Two Souls heresy (AD391) is called De Duabus Animabus Contra Manichaeos.

The Two Souls doctrine is not dissimilar to Talmudic doctrines that "make the Law and the prophets of no effect to those who follow its teachings." In other words, they are not in the economy of God, whether they are impersonators of Yahweh Torah, or claim the New Covenant and follow Brother Branham's Message by the "letter" without the "Spirit." For when we "add" our uninspired interpretations to the spoken or written Word of God this indicates we are not elect, and if our names are not in the Lambs Book of Life we will be purged and martyred in the great tribulation. While if we "take from" the written or spoken Word of God our name will be removed from the Book of Life which leads to the second death (Revelation 22:18-19).

Hebrews 9:27, "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." The first death is the death of the body but the second death is that of the soul (Ezekiel 18:4, 20; Revelation 20:14). Revelation 2:11, "He who overcomes shall not be hurt of the second death".

These Scriptures demonstrate the falsehood of the "Two Souls" doctrine which claims that God's elect are born with a "seed" in their soul, and in their new birth the Holy Spirit and Fire annihilates their old sinful soul and quickens the seed of God into a new, sinless and perfect soul.

The soul is sometimes referred to as the feminine of God because in the invisible union of Christ with His Bride "God and the spirit that's joined with God is one Spirit" (William Branham, Hebrews 313:639; Genesis 2:24; John 3:6; 17:21-26; I Corinthians 6:17; 12:13; Hebrews 2:11). The natural types the spiritual and the human soul is the feminine of the Word (Ephesians 5:22-33).

However, Brother Branham said "the woman does not have a seed" (Oneness, 16:89-92). So unless she has lain with her husband she has a virgin womb like Mary and like Christ's Bride who is a virgin to the Word. Brother Branham said, "Christ is now taking Himself a Bride to be pregnated with His own Seed Word in Her womb (spirit womb) and in Her mind, and won't mix with any denominational trash with it. She is a virgin to Him" (Spoken Word is the Original Seed, p. 98:1).

Luke 8:11, "The seed is the Word of God:" the Holy Spirit in a form we can receive by faith (or Spiritual understanding). The inspired Seed Word of Isaiah 7:14 passed to the Virgin Mary by the spoken Word of the Angel Gabriel, "Fear not, Mary: for you have found favour with God. And you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and call His Name Jesus. He will be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give to Him the throne of His father David: And He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of His kingdom there shall be no end" (Luke 1:31-33; Isaiah 9:7; Daniel 2:44).

Jesus was not Mary's seed or ovum, otherwise he would have been sinful flesh and not "God's Holy One" prophesied by David in Psalm 16:10. John 1:14 says, "The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us".

I Peter 1:22-25, "Seeing you have purified (not replaced) your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that you love one another with a pure heart fervently: being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which lives and abides for ever . . . And this (seed) is the Word which by the Good News is preached unto you".

We receive the Seed, which is the Gospel of our salvation or Word for our day, by the foolishness of preaching. Romans 10:14-17, "How shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things! But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah said, Lord, who has believed our report? So then faith comes by hearing, and what is heard comes by the Word of God".

God's Seed is the Holy Spirit in a form we can receive by the hearing of faith (Galatians 3:2).

If as Two Souls believers claim, the elect are born with a seed in their soul then they are not born virgins. Only idolaters or denominational harlots whose little souls have been pregnated by Satan, or some spirit other than God can be with seed. The seed is either the wheat of God's Word or the tare of discrepancy and can only be communicated to the soul through the eyes or ears. Clearly even the elect are not born with God's seed in their heart for that seed is faith, and faith comes from understanding. For this reason the Lord does not hold children responsible until they reach the age of accountability.

The Bible is the story of our near Kinsman redeeming that which was potentially lost, not replacing it with something else. When we were born from mother's womb, our soul was dead in unbelief because we were unable to speak let alone understand the revealed Word of God (Ephesians 2:5). The "seed" of God is the revelation of His Word. When you receive this "seed" of the incorruptible Word God for your day it quickens your soul to eternal Life in Christ made manifest in you (Luke 8:11; I Peter 1:22-25). Your second birth is this quickening of the soul (John 5:25).

Christ, the Angel who spoke through Brother Branham to indict the beast from the sea and his image from the earth, commanded us "take and eat" and become one with the open Book. This is how we become the seed of Christ the Word in the end-time or eat of the Tree of Life that was in the midst of the Garden of Eden (Revelation 2:7; 10:1-11; 22:6-19).

Isaiah 53:10-11 exposes the heresy of Two Souls doctrine. "Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief: when You shall make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in His hand. He shall see the travail of His soul, and shall be satisfied: by His knowledge shall My righteous Servant justify many; for He shall bear their iniquities".

Why should He bear their iniquities and carry them away as symbolized by the scape goat in Israel's Day of Atonement if those justified souls are to be replaced by another?

Galatians 3:26-29, "For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. . . And if you are Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise".

So election does not come through one's birth in the righteous lineage, or Esau, Dathan, Korah and Judas Iscariot would be the elect of God. No, God's children are not born of human relations but through faith. "Abraham's seed" is the baptism with the Holy Spirit, or new birth.

As Brother Branham explained in his Message, "The Future Home of the Earthly Bride and Heavenly Groom," God will renew heavens and earth wherein a people renewed in soul and body will dwell through eternity. Scripture proclaims a restoration of original creation by redemption and renewal, not replacement. Heavens and earth will cleansed and renewed by natural and Supernatural Fire, not replaced; and the souls of God's elect and the "saved" will be cleansed, redeemed and renewed by the Holy Spirit and Fire, not replaced. Christ's Bride is waiting on the last of His elect to recognize their place in the Kingdom, and He is depending upon you to hunt up that last elect by your testimony of the present Truth!

A sixteenth century heresy claims Jews have the potential for a second soul, rendering them a separate species. And that the soul with which they were born and lived a life of sin is annihilated together with their sins, and a brand new soul is born in them. This teaching is anathema and like all Talmudic doctrines, it makes Calvary and the Word of God of no effect to those who hold them (Mark 7:13). As surely as Scripture cites the Talmud as the cause of Israel rejecting Messiah, Talmudic teachings promoted by Message cults will prevent multitudes from entering the Kingdom. "For the Kingdom of God is within you"—it is the eternal Life you have received by faith, and G_d will not share His glory with spiritual Serpent's seed of Talmudic discrepancy.

As Rabbi Judah Halevy, a famous medieval poet and philosopher, explains in Kuzari, "The Jewish people constitute a separate entity, a species unique in Creation, differing from nations in the same manner as man differs from the beast or the beast from the plant . . . although Jews are physically similar to all other men, yet they are endowed with a "second soul" that renders them a separate species." (Zimmer, Uriel, Torah-Judaism and the State of Israel, Congregation Kehillath Yaakov, Inc., NY, 5732 (1972), p. 12).

The Cabalistic tradition of Judaism as it relates to the divine origin of the Jews and the lower level of Gentiles is also explained by Rabbi Jacob Agus: "It is axiomatic in Cabalistic writings that the higher souls of Jewish people are derived from the divine pleroma—the realm of Sefirot—whereas the souls of all other nations are derived from the "shells." Rabbi Hayim Vital does not exempt converts from this rule (Aitz Hayim 7, 10, 7; Aitz Hadaat, Bemidbar). The "Tanya" of Rav Sheneur Zalman was written for the general public. Its view of Gentile souls is in Chapter 6. The Zohar follows the same line, save that in the Midrash Haneelam; we note a certain effort to account for this difference. Before Adam sinned, he possessed the higher soul; after his sin, only his animal soul remained. Thereafter, the divine soul comes only to those who are preoccupied with Torah, entering the body of the Jewish male at age thirteen" (Rabbi Jacob Agus, Meta-Myth: The Diaspora and Israel Zohar Hodosh, Bereshit 18b-19a, Midrash Hane'elam. Etan Levine [ed.], Diaspora: Exile and the Jewish Condition, New York, Jason Aronson. 1983. p. 139).

The rabbi has unintentionally confirmed Galatians 3:28-29, "There is neither Judean nor Gentile, bond nor free, male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you are Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise." He understands that no one is born with faith, which is a revelation that comes by hearing after the age of accountability. Although his teaching denies the fact, he has seen that election is not inherited through a Jewish mother but is ordained by God's foreknowledge of what one will do with the revealed Word when it is presented.

Once upon a time Scheherazade's Aladdin cried, "New lamps for old" but there is no replacement of sinful old souls with new, unused souls. Jesus Messiah is in the recycling business: saving and redeeming old souls. The replacement theology called "Two Souls" is a heresy introduced into Judaism after Pentecost by unregenerate sinners. It is anathema to the teachings of Moses, Messiah and all other Old Testament prophets, and to the New Testament prophets including William Branham. I speak as an "insider," for there was a time in which I too believed this "spiritual schizophrenia," concocted by teaching from the "letter" of the Message without taking it to Scripture for the Revelation.

The first Adam set a type for the last Adam who also surrendered His life for His Bride but was raised victorious over death for her justification. John 3:16, "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that all those souls who believe in Him should not perish and be replaced, but be redeemed and receive eternal Life." II Peter 3:9, "The Lord . . . is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any soul should perish, but that all should come to repentance." This eliminates soul replacement theology.

The genesis of the world to come was the spoken Word birth of the first God-man who became Adam's Kinsman Redeemer. His death and resurrection reconciled to God every soul that will live in the renewed world. Romans 5:8, "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for our souls" and His Spirit returned on the day of Pentecost to baptize, cleanse and infuse our soul with God's Life-giving power (Matthew 3:11). He renews our soul by drawing us into agreement in the unity of the faith. This common faith, which is the mind of Christ in us, purges the soul of sin or unbelief and brings it to new Life in Christ. Soon God will renew our bodies, and following the White Throne Judgment at the end of the Millennium this whole earth will be renewed by its baptism of Fire.

God is love. Love is forgiving, offering Life and redemption, not death and replacement. The Bible is the story of our near Kinsman redeeming the lost, not replacing them with others but finding, recovering and reinstating souls as in the parable of the prodigal son.

One who has never heard or read the Word for their day, which is the seed or germ of eternal Life, cannot receive the new birth. A permanently blind deaf and dumb mute can be "saved" but he can never be born-again because the seed Word of God can only be communicated to establish faith through the natural senses they lack. The seed of God produces our second birth as the seed of man produced our first birth.

Two souls believers have confused the natural birth with the Spiritual birth as they have confused the natural death of the body with spiritual death of the soul. The first birth and death apply to the physical life of the body; the second birth and death concern the spiritual life of the soul. Before "the soul that sins" can die its earthly body must first be raised in the general resurrection and stand before the White Throne judgment, then cast into the lake of Fire with its soul (Galatians 6:7-9; I Corinthians 5:10). The death of the soul is the second death (Revelation 20:14-15).

I Corinthians 15:46, "The spiritual is not first, but the natural, and afterwards the spiritual".

Human beings consist of a body, a mortal spirit and a soul. Animals have a body and mortal spirit but lack a soul which is the part of man made in the image and after the likeness of God. All three elements are necessary to make a human being. This explains why stillborn babies are only potentially human and have no part in salvation or the kingdom of God since there is no preexistence of souls and they were only ever a body with neither mortal spirit nor soul.

The Book of Life is Adam's genealogy or family tree that was compiled in God's foreknowledge before there was a world. When it was written it contained the name of every soul ever to be born in Adam's race. It is the record of our first birth with the nature of the world through father and mother. No names can be added to this Book for that would preclude the omniscience of God. Yet the vast majority of names will be removed from the Book. These together with the physical Serpent's seed who were never written in this book are the lost.

With the exception of the saints, every soul that was ever named in the Book of Life must stand before Jesus Christ and His saints at the White Throne judgment. Those whose names have been removed will be cast into the lake of Fire and annihilated. Those whose names remain in this Book are the "saved" who will be granted into eternal Life. We see here the foundation of justice wherein one is judged by a jury of one's peers rather than a lone judge or magistrate (Daniel 7:9-10; Matthew 25:31-46; John 5:21-22, 26-32; I Corinthians 6:2-3; Revelation 3:21; 20:11-15).

The Book of Life contains a brief section called the Lamb's Book of Life which records God's foreknowledge of His Family—those souls who will be born the second time through Jesus Christ the last Adam. This is the Book of God's redeemed from which no names can be added or removed. It is the inventory of lively stones that form the foundation, walls, gates, and streets of New Jerusalem—the City of the Living God Jesus has gone away to prepare—a City made not with human hands, eternal in the heavens (Matthew 3:9). Each stone by its own choosing is a living witness to the nature and character of God shining forth His glory in one harmonious amber Shekinah so that there is no need of the sun or moon to shine upon the City.

At the Fall man forfeited Earth's dominion to Satan, and death reigns in each of us until the jubilee because we were conceived in sin, born in iniquity and subject to the world. Our bodies are of the earth and the so-called Adamic nature on our mortal spirit is worldly because the senses of our flesh (sight, touch, hearing, taste and smell) and spirit (conscience, reasoning, memory, affections and imagination) only enable us to contact the natural, material world of which we are part and under Satan's governance. Until faith quickens our soul to the Word of the hour it lays dead in trespasses and sin and subject to the natural, worldly desires of our ten senses. As long as we love the world and the things of the world the love of God—His own Life by new birth—is not in us.

I Corinthians 15:44, "[the resurrected dead were] sown a natural body and raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body." God's law of reproduction states that every specie brings forth after its own kind so our birth into the first Adam's family gave us a spirit of nature, a spirit of this world, a spirit of the god of this world in a body that could not live forever, so we must be born-again by the last Adam in order to receive His Holy Spirit and eternal Life into our soul to be raised in a glorified body.

A "nature" is the sum of spiritual and physical qualities and propensities which make up the essential features and elements of character. It is the intrinsic disposition, inherent tendency or character of a person, object or being.

The nature of a Christian is to have the Token on display. The nature of a dog is to bark at strangers, eat almost anything and bury bones. The nature of your car might be a reluctance to start. The nature of a mule is stubbornness.

A nature is not a soul as Two Souls believers assert but as Brother Branham and the Bible teach; the soul is the nature of the spirit it serves. Until our soul is born-again or quickened into union by agreement with the revealed Word for our day, our life cannot become a written epistle of that part of the Word, but is ruled by our mortal spirit and flesh whose desires are worldly. And since Satan is the Prince of this world, his nature is the ultimate ruler of that unregenerate soul.

When our soul agrees with the present Truth—what Jesus is doing now—it repents of its old worldly ways and identifies with every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Cleansed of its sinful past, dead to the worldly desires of the spirit and corruptible flesh, and in union with the Word, it brings them subject to God's Word. Our old soul, quickened to eternal Life, now has a new nature because its Husband is the Word. Whereas the old nature of that soul was to lie and cheat, lust and hate, the new nature is love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance, etc.,

The soul reflects the nature of the spirit that is on it: the nature of the world, or the nature of the Holy Spirit. Whereas the spirit and flesh each have five senses, the soul has only one—faith or unbelief in the revealed Word of God. The unregenerate soul is ruled by the nature of the spirit which is the nature of this world. The regenerated soul is ruled by the Word of God that transforms the mortal spirit into obedience to reflect the nature of Christ and bring the flesh subject to the Word. It is the nature on our old soul that dies, and not the soul itself.

Let us quote William Branham: "If you are born again, your entire nature is changed. You are dead to the things you once thought" (Is Your Life Worthy of the Gospel, p. 28:139).

"Now, the Holy Spirit will not misbehave itself in one person, and behave itself in another. It'll make each person come into its character because it's a Spirit that leads you. It makes you subject to its nature. You don't bring it subject to your nature; it makes you subject to its nature. And the Holy Spirit makes you live and love to do it. Oh, how you love to give up the things of the world when the Holy Spirit comes in. How it cleanses you and washes you, and puts a desire in you to follow Him, and a thirst and a hunger for more of it, just bathing yourself. He brings realities" (The Unfailing Realities of the Living God, p. 11:76).

"If you're born again and have a new Parent, then you've got a new nature. The old nature's dead, and you have a new nature. You once were going one way; now you're going another way. You once were going in this a-way, down, now you're going this a-way, up. Your affections are set on things above: a new affection. You don't love the things of the world no more; your affection's of God. You don't care what man says, how they laugh at you and say you're old model, or whatever it is like that, you don't care, because you're born from above and your affections are set on things above. God's not ashamed of you, and you're not ashamed of Him. That's right. . . Read the 11th chapter of Hebrews right here . . . why people in that day, destitute, and everything else, of whom the world's not even worthy of. Read it; it'll be good for you. And you can see there, what happens to people when their nature is changed."

(These Old Testament saints were not born-again for their sins were only covered, not remitted, and according to Two Souls teaching had therefore not received a new soul. But they were baptized with the Holy Ghost and their nature had changed from the nature of the world to the nature of the Holy Spirit now ruling their soul).

What kind of a nature have you got then, Brother Branham? His nature. If I had my father's nature, then I'd do the things my father did. But now that I'm born again . . . your Father is God, and you're born in the family of God, you seek those things that pertain to God. That's right. Then you are God's child. Your nature is God's nature" (You must be Born Again, p.21:83-84).

Now no man can have his father's soul, but he could have the nature of his father.

"That soul is what God's a working on, (see), if He can only get that nature of that spirit to agree with Him, then that nature dies. The nature and the love of the world dies and the things of the world are dead (see?); because if you love the world or the things of the world, the love of God is not in you. . . so this nature has to die, and the nature of God comes and lives in you. And God is the only thing there is that never did begin or never can end."

"So therefore He has partnershipped you, and taken this man, earthly, and this eternal Spirit and put it together. . . That's why we're baptized into His Name that we might come forth in His Name, in His death, in His resurrection, that we rise again testifying to the world that we have new Life, that the old man is dead. We buried that first nature. See, that first nature is gone, and now we are the nature of Him. He lives in us, and we don't do our own will; we do His will. We don't think our own thoughts. The mind is what thinks. The mind that was in Christ Jesus is in every believer. See? . . ." (Souls that are in Prison Now, p. 8:44-47).

Romans 7:1-6 is a prophecy for the Church in every age, especially in these last days when the apostate denominations are dead to us, and we are reunited with Christ the fullness of the Word. It is also as a teaching on marriage and divorce. Let us consider the Spiritual marriage of Christ and His Bride which is typed by the natural marriage of a man and a woman.

"Don't you know, brethren, (for I speak to those who know the Law), how the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives? For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he lives; but if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband. So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband dies, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man."

"Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the Law through the body of Christ; that you may be married to another, even to Him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit to God. For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bring forth fruit to death. But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in newness of Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter".

Our first birth was associated with nature and therefore with death. The first husband or ruler of our soul was the nature of the world, and as we have read, that first husband must be dead in order that we may be married to Christ, the Word.

When we hear Christ's proposal of marriage and separate from that old husband or Adamic nature that tricked us into fornication with the world, and take the Name of Jesus Christ in water baptism, we are justified by grace through faith. But separation or divorce from that old nature will not permit us to remarry so long as it lives. Every speck of him has to die.

Sanctification by the Blood of the Word cleanses us of our worldly desires, transforming us by the renewing of our mind, which is our spirit, and training us in ways that will please our espoused.

Finally, a clear revelation of the present Truth brings the Holy Ghost into our heart with the Pillar of Fire that burns out and annihilates that old worldly nature that once ruled our soul, uniting us with the Word of the hour. This is the invisible union of the Bride with Christ.

You can't sit on the fence; you're going to be filled with something. You can't be a human being without being filled. Soon all those without the Seal of God will be forced to take the mark of the beast, or be killed. When this day of grace has ended, men without the nature of Christ will be forced into that decision.

Don't imagine that you can be popular with the world and accepted by mainstream or Message denominational people if you declare the revelation of the present Truth. If you hide your Light under a bushel, aren't you ashamed of Christ (Luke 7:23)? And if the wedding band of His nature is not on display, making your yes mean "Yes," and your no an unequivocal "No," won't He be ashamed to call you His Wife?

Paul displayed the nature of Christ when he said: "I am innocent of the blood of all men because I have not shunned to declare unto you the whole counsel of God" (Acts 20:26-27). Are you innocent, or are you guilty of the blood of your denominational acquaintances?

In order to be born-again or married to Christ the fullness of the Word, that old husband of PART-Word and denominational replacement theology must be dead. Christ will not marry an adulteress or denominational harlot to the Word. You must be loosed from the law of that old husband by his death as the Law had to be dead to the Hebrew converts.

Deuteronomy 16:5-6, "You may not sacrifice the Passover (or worship the risen Christ) within any place of assembly which the Lord your God has given you: but at the place which the Lord your God shall choose to place His Name in, there you shall sacrifice the Passover" or worship. That is, in the revelation predestinated to your day.

Or as we paraphrase I John 1:7, "Unless we are walking in the Light of the present Truth—the Word for this day—we are not and cannot come under the Blood and be born-again, or even share true Spiritual fellowship with those who are genuine Christians".

Paul taught the early Christians that in order to be married to Christ, their old husband or ruler, the Law, had to be dead to them. And today, no Christian can worship in Spirit and in Truth, or find Spiritual fellowship with an Anglican, Lutheran or Presbyterian because their churches are impersonating the Light Christ was in during the Sardis Age (1520-1750); neither can one identify with Methodists or Baptists who are impersonating the Light Christ shone for the Philadelphian Church Age (1750-1906), nor with the Pentecostals who are impersonating the Light of the Laodicean Church Age (1906-1963) which apostatized and put Christ out when He came "as a thief in the night" just as Israel crucified Him outside of the City (Revelation 3:17-20).

Christians nowadays can't worship according to the traditions and Scriptures where Christ met believers in days gone by. Those places in the Word have been fulfilled. We must meet Him "in the place of His rest," the ground of the Word He is fulfilling without the camp in this day (Isaiah 66:1). God can't make us written epistles of the Word for a bygone day; He can only express the present Truth.

Amos 3:3, "How can two walk together unless they are agreed on the Word"?

After He had overcome in Gethsemane but before He surrendered to the Jews, Jesus prayed, "Not for the world, but for those whom You have given Me out of the world, for they are Yours. . . Neither do I pray for these alone, but those who will believe on Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me".

Those who are Jesus' sheep will receive His Word; those who dispute the revelation after the first and second admonition are unable to receive it because they are not His sheep. God's love is corrective. If you have the love of God or new birth you will live and declare His Truth without fear or partiality because His Spirit is united with your soul which reflects His nature so the Token or evidence of the Life of Christ is on display.

Abraham's seed is the baptism with the Holy Ghost or new birth which in each of the New Testament dispensations is the product of a life lived by a clear revelation of the Word for that Age. At the end of the Message to each dispensation Jesus says, "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the true and false Churches"—His promise and His reproach.

A Brother wrote this week to say, "My pastor does not believe in two souls, but believes the old soul dies, and a new soul is received."

Let me repeat, new birth is the soul's redemption, not its replacement. You are your soul. The soul is the part of man that is made in the likeness of God. All souls are immortal until after the appeal at the White Throne judgment, then those souls that were never on or have been removed from the Book of Life will be annihilated. Were your soul to die it would mean your total loss and annihilation. Such is the destiny of the mob. However, the first death is physical, the death of the body. Your body is the house in which you reside. Your mortal spirit is the power that operates your mind and your body. It comes from God but it is not of God. eb438.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Israel's planned attack against Lebanon is luring Asian and European "peace-keeping" (sic) troops into position as cannon fodder for the "hot stage" of the City's World War III, a diversion from the coming Russian invasion of that alien-controlled wildcard, the United States of America. This pre-planned war will be a Vatican coup de théâtre for although Rome is being played as a pawn to simulate Bible Prophecy and deliver world hegemony to the City, once she has consolidated renewed hold on temporal power she will sit as a queen (Daniel 9:27; Revelation 18).

There is a full day's study in this edition of the Newsletter: you must follow all of the links in order to understand events of the recent past and bring yourself up-to-date with geopolitical and geostrategic realities that help to unfold the Message.

Our contributor, Dr. Peter Beter (1921-1987), practiced general law in Washington, D.C., from 1951 to 1961, becoming a member of the US Court of Military Appeals in 1952 and the US Supreme Court in 1964. Many of his cases were against the federal government, all of which he won—including one case in which he caught the US Department of Justice burning records in an attempt to defeat him. The resulting decision—Farley vs. U.S., 131 C. . 776 (1955), 127 F Supp. 562—made new law.

In 1961 President John F. Kennedy appointed Dr. Beter Counsel to the US Export-Import Bank where he served until 1967. After leaving the Ex-Im Bank, he became an international financial and legal consultant, as well as one of the chief developers of private international business in the Republic of Zaire.

As a political and economic commentator, he worked with Wall Street luminaries including Franz Pick, Edward Durell, Colonel Curtis Dall, Norman Dodd and Emmanuel Josephson. His prolific writings include The Conspiracy Against the Dollar. A précis of 80 Audio Letters published between 1975 and 1982 will help you "connect the dots" between the written and spoken Word and recognize the material fulfillment of certain prophecies.

Our Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Morgellons: First Observations

August 16, 2006– Morgellons disease is characterized in part by the presence of a host of unusual skin conditions, commonly including persistent lesions and unusual fibers or filaments. Clifford Carnicom is using 5600x microscope which shows these fibers in detail. The illness causes much pain and suffering. However, acceptance of the illness by the formal medical community remains controversial, despite increasing and widespread evidence of its existence. Evidence appears to associate Morgellons with chemtrails. Full story: carnicom.com carnicom.com

Humanists of Hungary

August 26, 2006– Today in Budapest the "humanists" of Hungary call upon all countries possessing some nuclear arsenal, especially the United States, England, France, India, Pakistan, North Korea, Russia and China to destroy those weapons.

(As you see it, the "humanists" guided by the Jewish freemasonry don't call upon the State of Israel to destroy its nuclear arsenal. If the Jewish State remains the only atomic power, then the Jews can subdue the world as Theodor Herzl has set as an aim for the Jews in his book entitled "Programme for the Jewish World-Colony." This final end got new corroboration according to my book "The Secrets of the Nietzschean Empire." Full story: monusaron.com

Connecting the Dots

As we approach the climax of six thousand years of warfare between God and Lucifer incarnating their kingdom subjects on earth, we acknowledge that the battle is the Lord's being a contest for the perception of heart over mind.

II Corinthians 10:3-5, "Though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ".

Satan is a liar, but the very elect cannot be deceived on the revealed Word of God.

Psalm 91:7, "A thousand shall fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you".

Brother Branham said, "The handwriting's on the wall. All the time that we've been spending our money, and jokes . . . laughing at religion, making fun of it. . . Russia has been putting things in the air that's so far ahead of us, till they're years and years and years ahead of us. You remember the Medo-Persians were at the gate, waiting, when these things happened; and they knew nothing about it" (Uncertain Sound, #61-0415E).

As you read Dr. Beter's Audio Letter you will recognize the ungodly leaders of the apostate Western world are leading their people into the valley of Death. The things Russia has been putting in the air are the "investigating judgment angels" of which Brother Branham spoke. Once more, nominal Christians are being betrayed into conflict against nominal Christians by leaders who are at enmity with God and Adam's race. As in the World Wars I and II in which the motive of Germany was more honourable, today the motive of the Russia is more honourable.

Brother Branham said, "We had a great nation; but she is now rottening and crumbling and shaking and giving away, and trying to tax people to get money to send over yonder to buy friendship with our enemies. They're throwing it back in our face. One World War, two World Wars, and still moving on to a third one" (This Day this Scripture if Fulfilled, p. 16:131-132).

The Prophet scolded America for spending billions trying to buy the friendship of her enemies who hate Jesus Christ and all she once represented. When Rome breaks her covenant with the international banksters in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week, America's mendicant friend and ally will side with Communism and blast both the Vatican and the United States from the face of the earth.

Blind Laodicea has lost the battle of perception. Satan has you financing and arming the Serpent. Dr. Beter explains why America's demonic rulers are desperate to concentrate power in themselves and regard any group, nation or individual that does not submit to their terrorism as an enemy to be destroyed (Revelation 13:11; 3:17-20). You will know why the United States, the most feared and hated nation on earth, will be destroyed, and appreciate the frustration of Nikita Khrushschev who was hindered from establishing friendship with the blind American people whose hidden rulers are the alien invaders of Russia. Deposed by Khrushschev's loyalist faction, they immigrated to the US where they usurped their kindred and now dominate the Administration as Ariel Sharon so bluntly stated. Because of this takeover the Administration has made the US Russia's enemy rather than her friend. Misperception caused by apostasy has blinded Americans to the enemy within their gates. The policy of these aliens has made the United States a defenseless self-defeated state which does not want peace. Having forsaken the Lord she rests in chutzpah, not faith, and the sacrifice of most of her population in an ill-fated pre-emptive first strike nuclear war against Russia determined by the enemy within her gates.

Brother Branham said, "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3).

Russia's invasion of the United States is likely to be a desperate measure of self-defense against the bloody-minded plans of America's hidden rulers to sacrifice American lives and civilization in a pre-emptive first-strike nuclear attack against the overwhelming superiority of Russian military technology. Speaking of world politics, the Voice in the third vision said, "WATCH RUSSIA, WATCH RUSSIA. Keep your eye on the King of the North." Russia's invasion will follow earthquakes that sink Los Angeles, generate tsunamis, activate the Pacific Ring of Fire and split the Mount of Olives. As the Great Flood was caused by man's atomic power, the California earthquake is likely to be induced by either Russia or the megalomaniacs administering the United States seeking to blame Russia and justify a pre-emptive attack in supposed self-defense.

Historically, America's alien rulers have shown no compunction in flying a false flag to deceive US citizens into laying down their lives for the cause of world government. We cite the sabotage of the USS Maine, untrue reports of the sinking of the SS Sussex President Wilson used to declare war on Germany, Roosevelt's sacrifice of 2,000 American lives in the "surprise" attack on Pearl Harbour on a date Soviet spy Richard Sorge advised the Kremlin 60 days beforehand, the fraudulent Gulf of Tonkin lie used to justify open warfare against North Vietnam, the deception of Iraq by which Bush I caused Gulf War I, Bush II's sacrifice of 3,000 American lives in 9/11 to justify World War III, his lies about Iraq's WMD in order to justify Gulf War II, and more recently his lies against Hezbollah, Syria and Iran in order to hasten the "hot stage" of World War III. As suggested by experts, it seems the Boxing Day earthquake and tsunami off Sumatra were man-made demonstrations of the power of the hidden government of the USA, perhaps sending a warning to Russia. Life is cheap!

When I was ministering in Holland, Pastor Harry Van Der Stel told me a Russian commander had explained on television how he had navigated his submarine many miles inland through the labyrinth beneath Los Angeles. Perhaps his mission was to plant a device such as the short-range underwater-launched nuclear missiles that have ringed United States territorial waters since the mid-seventies.

At any event, Rome and her temporary partners will bring the US under subjection and subdue Russia until the final destruction of Christendom represented by Rome and her (once) Protestant image in the third major revolution planned to transfer all power to their Illuminati masters, but which will become Armageddon and the consummation of all life on earth.

Three incestuously related dynasties seek world hegemony, each presenting the public face of evil to its detractors: the Black Nobility, Rome, and Communism. Each is a pawn destined for destruction in the millennium endgame.

There is an ongoing power struggle of titanic dimensions which constantly shapes the news, but which is little understood—indeed unsuspected—by most people. If these forces are not recognized or understood, current events are inherently baffling, no matter how diligently one may follow the news. This leaves even the best-educated and most intelligent of persons vulnerable to manipulation to suit the purposes of those who pull the strings behind the scenes. By contrast, if the largely unseen forces are known and understood, major events become far more understandable and even, to some extent, predictable. Those informed about these things become far less vulnerable and more difficult to fool by manipulated news and news events.

The Bolshevik-Zionist Axis

By Dr. Peter Beter

In 1917, during the height of World War I, two events took place which were destined to shape much of the history of the Twentieth Century. One was the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. The other was the Balfour Declaration, by which the government of Britain threw its support behind the concept of creating a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Both Bolshevism and the political force known as Zionism have common roots which are not widely known. Both were created by the Rothschild interests, whose support was also responsible for the meteoric rise to riches of John D. Rockefeller, Sr., a century ago. Bolshevism and Zionism also have common historical roots in the so-called "Kingdom of the Jews" . . . It consisted of a people known as the Khazars of a Mongol-Turkic origin whose leader officially adopted Judaism as the state religion. This was done as a political ploy to enable Khazaria to maintain its political independence of two powerful neighbors. These were the super-powers of that day: the Moslem empire of the Caliphs to the South and the Christian empire of Byzantium to the west. . .

Khazar rule was brutal and oppressive . . . Finally the Christian forces of Prince Vladimir's Russia and Byzantium combined to attack the Khazar "Kingdom of the Jews," so-called, and utterly destroy it. The Khazar "Jews" were driven out of their homeland between the seas, many of them into Eastern Europe. There they mingled to some extent with Jews of the diaspora from Palestine, but they carried with them a . . . heritage of bitter hatred for Christianity in general and for Russian Christians in particular.

Down through the centuries, the "Khazar Jew" dream of regaining their lost empire has been passed down from generation to generation. This dream has developed into two branches. One branch emphasizes restoration of power over Russia, and crystallized into Bolshevism. The other branch, emphasizing the old, falsely religious "Kingdom of the Jews" concept, emerged as the political force known as Zionism. Both are aimed at world power. Both are equally ruthless, devoid of regard for human life. They differ only in geographic emphasis and in some tactics. With their common roots and common basic objectives, the Bolsheviks and Zionists work together hand in glove.

When Bolshevism was injected into Christian Russia in 1917, it was done with the help of the Rockefeller Cartel. From that time onward there was a covert alliance between those who controlled American policies behind the scenes (the Rockefeller Cartel) and those who ran the Soviet Union (the Bolsheviks) . . .

While the United States and the Soviet Union pretended to be at odds, they actually were involved in a pincers movement to gobble up the entire world. The falsified animosity between Washington and Moscow was staged in order to polarize the world and cause nations to form up into two camps dominated by the two super-powers. Those who chose to remain independent of both the United States and the Soviet Union—the so-called "Third World"— were targeted for brushfire wars and revolutions to bring them to heel, one by one. Meanwhile the long-term goal was—in the words of a secret White House directive—"to so alter life in the United States that it can be comfortably merged with life in the Soviet Union." In this way, an all-powerful "one world" government would ultimately be achieved. That was to be the fulfillment of a "commitment" established early in the Twentieth Century by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and allied foundations in the Rockefeller orbit.

In order to "merge" American life into the pattern of Soviet life under the Bolsheviks, it was clear that the quality of American life would have to be lowered a great deal. It required subtle movement of the American political system in the direction of dictatorship. It required weakening of America's financial and monetary system. And to bring about the radical changes desired, it meant wars with the United States carefully maneuvered into a losing position. America's first no-win war was the Korean War. A decade later, America became embroiled in the losing Vietnam War, which was artificially dragged out with all possibilities for military victory vetoed by the White House.

The final war was to be a carefully programmed "Nuclear War I," fought primarily on American soil, between the United States and the Soviet Union. Plans called for it to erupt in the late 1970's, but developments in Russia changed that. The Bolsheviks who had run the Kremlin since 1917 were the targets of a decades-long overthrow campaign by a tough sect of native Russian Christians. Their power had begun to outweigh that of the Bolsheviks in certain areas starting in 1953, when Stalin died. This was the reason for Nikita Khrushchev's famous "de-Stalinization" campaign afterward. In the mid-1970's this anti-Bolshevik sect finally reached such a level of power that they completely overthrew and expelled the remaining Bolsheviks in the Kremlin. There followed a heavy wave of expulsions of Bolsheviks from positions of power in Russia, which was depicted in the Western press as emigration.

As the Bolsheviks were losing their grip on Russia, so-called détente fell on hard times. The Rockefeller-Soviet alliance had been based on Bolshevik control on the Soviet side, and when that was terminated, so was the secret alliance. The alliance was fractured by the still-secret Underwater Missile Crisis of 1976; a year later it was broken completely by the equally secret the first part Battle of the Harvest Moon in space. (You should read the entire book).

At that point the four Rockefeller brothers made a fatal mistake. Since their former secret allies in the Soviet Union had been the Bolsheviks, they welcomed the expelled Bolsheviks from Russia into positions of power here in the United States. They reasoned that the expelled Bolsheviks would know the weak spots of the upstart new group who had taken over the Kremlin and could help the Rockefeller Cartel deal with them.

What the Rockefeller brothers forgot is that the Bolsheviks are incapable of sharing power with anyone. Worse yet, the Bolsheviks are state socialists, who seek to concentrate all power into the hands of a few (themselves) by way of government. The Rockefeller Cartel, by contrast, represents corporate socialism—the concentration of power into the hands of a few by way of corporations, with minimum governmental interference. Both seek the same goal, but by means which are diametrically opposed. They cannot coexist within the same society.

The Bolsheviks no sooner acquired positions of power here in the United States than they began using it to topple the four Rockefeller brothers. By mid-1978, Bolshevik influence within the Pentagon was causing a radical shift of American strategic policy onto a first-strike nuclear posture. Meanwhile in July 1978, the death of John D. Rockefeller, 3rd, took place, weakening what had been the four-brother unit. In November 1978 the Guyana Massacre took place, as part of a military operation masterminded by the Pentagon Bolsheviks and with crucial participation by Israeli commandoes. Then in January 1979, the all-out Bolshevik grab for power began with the murder of Nelson Rockefeller.

During the first few months of 1979, Rockefeller power over the United States Government was shattered by the Bolsheviks here. However, the Bolsheviks were stopped short of complete success in their takeover bid by the intervention of Russia's KGB. The new Kremlin rulers knew that a complete takeover by the Bolsheviks here would lead quickly to nuclear war, and they acted to prevent it. Even so, Bolshevik control over the Pentagon has been strong ever since early 1979 . . .

A fierce power struggle is underway within the United States Government between the now entrenched Bolsheviks and the Rockefeller Cartel, which is trying to take back its former power. In addition, a limited new quid pro quo against the Bolsheviks was established by the Rockefeller Cartel and the New Kremlin early in 1982. The Cartel and the Kremlin still have some accounts to settle with each other, but both are deadly enemies of the Bolsheviks. To destroy them, they have agreed to work together in certain ways.

The Bolsheviks here in the United States have as a major goal a deliberate nuclear war by which to smash the Russia which overthrew them. As an avenue toward that war, the Middle East is critical. In that area, the Bolsheviks here are relying upon their close allies, the Zionists, to pave the way for war.

Just as most Americans are unaware of the Bolshevized nature of their government, most Israeli citizens are unaware of the true goals of their Zionist government. Americans and Israelis alike scratch their heads with worry and puzzlement over actions of their respective governments. While constantly talking peace, both are systematically increasing the dangers of war.

The radical Zionist regime in power in Israel from 1977 onward is headed by men who were terrorists in the 1940's. Today, as heads of the world's third most powerful military power, they continue to practice terrorism but on a grander scale. Theirs is a doctrine of military terrorism, designed to lead deliberately to new and wider conflicts as the map of Israel grows steadily. The country which calls itself "Israel" today bears little resemblance to the promises of the small but vocal Zionist minority who brought about the Balfour Declaration in 1917. The peaceful, tranquil haven for oppressed Jews does not exist. Instead, the dire warnings published in 1919 by a galaxy of prominent anti-Zionist American Jews have been fulfilled in the bloody history of Zionist Israel.

The New Kremlin Rulers

Dr. Beter first revealed in late 1977 that a new, non-Bolshevik ruling group had taken the reins of top power in the Soviet Union. In the autumn of 1978, he devoted a complete AUDIO LETTER tape (#38) to a special report on Russia and her new rulers.

To those who depend upon pronouncements of the United States Government for their image of Russia, Dr. Beter's reports about the New Kremlin tend to come as a distinct shock. Unlike the atheistic, Satanic Bolsheviks recently overthrown, Russia's new top rulers are members of a sect of native Russian Christians. This sect is at least two centuries old, and at times had considerable influence with the Czars.

Dr. Beter cautions his listeners not to assume that the New Kremlin rulers look at everything in the same way as Western Christians might. For one thing, he points out that it required a patient, arduous campaign of six decades for them to oust the Bolsheviks from top power in Russia. That experience has left them with very definite, vivid opinions about what does and does not work when dealing with people like the Bolsheviks and Zionists. They also know that rapid, radical change of any type opens the door for revolution—and where there is revolution, Bolshevik-Zionist agents will be there to exploit it. They are introducing liberalizing changes in Russia gradually, one step at a time. Having come this far, they are trying not to move too fast and thereby risk allowing it all to be undone.

Even so, visible changes are occurring. Early in 1979 the first legal shipment of Bibles into Russia since the Bolshevik Revolution took place. That Easter, Handel's Messiah was performed in Russia for the first time since the Bolshevik Revolution—and not in some out-of-the-way place, but at the Moscow Conservatory. Churches are reopening, one by one, all over the Soviet Union—and they are packed, as Dr. Billy Graham told the world upon returning from a Moscow religious conference in May 1982.

For saying what he did about what he had seen of religion in Russia, Dr. Graham ran into a hostile reception here in the United States. The Satanic Bolsheviks who now dominate the United States Government are doing everything in their power to paint Russia as an enemy worthy of hate. Anything which interferes with that image is suppressed. Because someday, the Bolsheviks here want America to go to war against Russia.

Economics: Manmade Causes of Worldwide Economic Disaster

Centuries ago Mayer Amschel Rothschild, founder of the Rothschild Dynasty, said: "Give me the power to issue a nation's money, and I care not who writes the laws."

Money is a necessary ingredient in the advancement of civilization itself. As a store of value and a medium of exchange, money is vastly more convenient and flexible than any system of barter, which is the only alternative. Money facilitates division of labor, specialization by individuals according to their talents, and organization of human activity into complex patterns necessary for advancement in virtually all realms of endeavor. It even helps to make possible economies of scale and other efficiencies which raise human productivity far beyond the levels required for mere survival. This makes it possible for a society to support artistic and other cultural advancements by which a civilization becomes more refined and rich.

In short, money is the economic glue which holds a society together. If it is honest, stable and unmanipulated, money plays a neutral role which is equally beneficial to all members of society. By working hard, for example, a person may earn more than is needed immediately to pay for whatever he buys from others. The excess can be saved, then spent whenever desired to meet an extraordinary expense, buy something special, or retire from work and live off the fruits of past labor. Money earned reflects work which is valued by society and for which one is paid.

It is this role of money as the economic common denominator of society that makes it such a tool of immense power—satanic power—in the wrong hands. He who issues a nation's money can create out of thin air what all the rest of us have to earn by honest labor. The issuer of money thus acquires unparalleled power over other individuals, since at the stroke of a pen he can make others wealthy who cooperate in advancing his fraudulent schemes. In any society there are always more than enough individuals available who are eager to be comfortably corrupted in this way, and it is they who are helped into positions of governmental power. That is what Rothschild meant when he said, "I care not who writes the laws." The power to issue money is the power to shape government to one's own ends.

If one has the power to issue a nation's money, then he also has the power to change its value. This changes the yardstick by which every single economic transaction in a society is measured, and is a way to steal from an entire society at once. He who sets aside the excess fruits of his labor in the form of money is robbed if, when he is ready to use it later, it is no longer worth the same amount. That is happening today in the United States, of course; it is called inflation.

By the time of the American Revolution, Rothschild financial power in Europe, and especially in Britain, was great. The Stamp Tax and other oppressive measures which helped trigger the Revolution bore the signature of King George, but they originated in the House of Rothschild. The Revolution broke the former colonies free of Rothschild money control.

The framers of the United States Constitution well understood the evils of corrupt, privately issued money. Therefore they refused to countenance the creation of any type of privately owned central bank. Instead, they gave the United States Congress the constitutional duty to issue and regulate the nation's money. The theory was that since Congress represents all the people, congressional control of our money should be the fairest and most equitable system possible.

From then until the early Twentieth Century, there were repeated attempts by the Rothschild interests to re-establish their lost money power here, either directly or indirectly. One example was the Bank of the United States, whose charter was cancelled by President Andrew Jackson in 1832. Likewise the Civil War involved, not just questions of slavery and states' rights, but also a strong component of struggle over the issuance of money. But once again the attempt failed, thanks partly to intervention by the Russian Navy at a critical tide in the war to prevent Britain and France from dismembering the war-torn United States.

For doing that, Russia was slated for destruction by the Rothschild interests. It was also decided that the best way to regain control over America's money was from within. To that end the Rothschilds lent support to several promising groups within the United States, spawning the era of the "robber barons." Out of that group, the Rockefellers soon rose to the top. In 1913 the Rothschilds finally saw the creation of what they had sought here in the United States: a privately owned central banking system, called the Federal Reserve System. It was a joint venture involving very heavy participation—in fact a lead role—by the increasingly powerful Rockefeller interests. But at least the Rothschilds at last had their foot back in the door for control of America's currency. In 1917 the Rothschilds accomplished their other goal, the destruction of Christian Russia, by way of the Bolshevik Revolution. As in the case of the Federal Reserve System, the basic concept was Rothschild-inspired . . . but it was Rockefeller muscle that made the plan a success. Having started out as Rothschild proteges, the Rockefeller Cartel had risen already to the status of partners. And during the decades that followed—especially after World War II—the Rockefellers pulled ahead and eclipsed Rothschild power on the world stage. That situation continued until the end of the 1970's. Now, with the collapse of the family Rockefeller Dynasty, the balance between the Rockefeller and Rothschild factions is in a state of flux, with both struggling for renewed supremacy.

The Federal Reserve System was sold to the public as a prescription for improved economic stability. But the record shows that the stock market crash of 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression were brought about in large part by deliberate Federal Reserve actions. The Great Bull Market of the 1920's was set in motion and sustained for most of a decade by means of easy credit. By 1929 the towering stock market was resting upon a huge, wobbly foundation of credit—that is, debt. The Federal Reserve Board then destroyed that foundation over a matter of mere months by severely contracting credit. The excuse given was designed to sound good, namely a crackdown on harmful speculation. But the real and predictable effect was to cause masses of investors to be suddenly unable to cover their "margin" stock-market purchases, forcing them to sell stock to raise cash. The sell-off thus triggered fed upon itself, while the Federal Reserve Board did nothing to halt the plunge. The stock market crashed.

Having set economic disaster in motion, the Federal Reserve Board soon thereafter made sure that it would mushroom into an all-out depression. This was brought about, not by the stock market crash itself, but by the failure of the American banking system afterward. A key purpose of the Federal Reserve System is supposed to be the preservation of banking stability, by stepping in as the lender of last resort (among other things) to prevent a localized banking problem from spreading. But in the early 1930's, a then-major bank—the United States Bank of New York—collapsed while the Federal Reserve System steadfastly refused to lift a finger to stop it. This created a chain reaction which pulled down additional banks, which dragged down still others, and so on. The Federal Reserve System, far from stopping this process, had set it in motion and did not intervene as it progressed. This plunged America and then the entire world into the Great Depression of the 1930's.

To most people a depression is an unmitigated disaster. It is hard to imagine that anyone could benefit from it, much less bring it about deliberately. But for the money controllers and their wealthy allies, the Great Depression provided enormous opportunities for increased wealth and power. Knowing what was coming, they were able to avoid the crushing financial losses which befell everyone else. Then during the depths of the Depression, they were in a position to buy up companies, real estate and other assets at a penny on the dollar. When the economy revived later on, these assets regained their value, producing vast profits for their new owners.

Ironically, by using their money control to plunge the American economy into disaster, the moneychangers set the stage for still greater expansion of their authority over America's monetary system. When President Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in 1933, he launched a series of sweeping moves that began with the declaration of a bank holiday. The United States was taken off the gold standard. Americans were required to turn in all of their gold coins. Title to America's gold was then handed over—as a gift!—to the Federal Reserve System. However, the Federal Reserve System was relieved of any need to spend time and money to take care of the gold which it now owned, as the US Treasury Department was made physical custodian of the gold.

The Federal Reserve System became freer than ever to tinker with America's economy by printing paper and controlling credit. The freedom grew steadily over the years as gold backing for the dollar was decreased. In 1968 President Johnson signed into law an act removing the final 25% gold backing requirement from the dollar. In 1971 President Nixon closed the international gold window, discontinuing settlement of international debts in gold. This left the United States dollar purely a piece of paper, totally divorced from gold or anything else of intrinsic value. This is an ideal situation for the money controllers, made to order for manipulation to enrich themselves at everyone else's expense. Since the dollar has been a worldwide reserve currency since 1944, this means that everyone on earth is victimized by the dollar manipulation now underway in the US.

From 1971 onward, inflation has been an ever-increasing problem in the United States and therefore worldwide. Each time it is damped down temporarily, it is slowed at the expense of rising unemployment and slumping economic activity. When the economy revives, inflation soon takes off again to new and higher levels. The Federal Reserve Board, claiming (as in 1929) to be looking out for our best interests, responds with crushing new interest rates that reach new historical highs. Again unemployment shoots up, without ever having quite recovered from the previous cycle. Cycle after cycle, inflation and economic stagnation both keep getting worse. The balance between the two conditions keeps shifting back and forth, but both inflation and stagnation are with us continually and simultaneously. We are caught in the "stagflation" era foreseen by Dr. Beter in his 1973 book, The Conspiracy Against the Dollar.

The crumbling of the once powerful United States economy is a direct consequence, and an intended one, of the destruction of the dollar itself which is underway. The time will come when the dollar will collapse altogether, and with it the economy of the United States and much of the world as we know it. At that point the same thing will have to be done that has always been done when other currencies have collapsed. There will have to be a new currency—a new dollar—with something behind it to restore confidence. The one commodity which has been a reliable, universally accepted basis for monetary confidence for thousands of years is gold. And so, gold will have to be used in setting up a new system of stable international currencies, including a new dollar.

Meanwhile there will come a period of international monetary turbulence during which only gold or strongly gold-backed currencies will be trusted. During that period of time, assets measured in dollars will shrivel—as they are already doing now, at a less frantic pace. Those who have cornered the world's gold supply will be in a perfect position to vastly expand their own holdings and power. And so, contrary to the official books of the US Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve System, America's monetary gold hoard has been largely spirited away. It began in 1961 under the London Gold Pool Agreement: for seven years enormous loads of American monetary gold were hemorrhaged out of Fort Knox and other depositories and sent overseas. In addition there have been secret shipments of gold which are not reflected in official records at all.

Through their control and manipulation of money—specifically the United States dollar—the moneychangers are stealing vast amounts of what countless millions have worked hard to produce. And just as they did in 1929 and afterward, they are again positioning themselves to set off economic disaster worldwide.

Military: The Secret Plans and Weapons for Armageddon

To most people war is a supreme evil among human events, to be avoided if at all possible . . . and yet, we go right on having wars. To those who rule nations, war is a tool of power which is used deliberately. War can be used for external reasons, such as to increase the geographical extent of a nation's power. More importantly, war provides the perfect excuse for a government to impose increased controls on its own people. By citing "national security" the government can persuade the people that even highly dictatorial controls are for their own good.

These principles are among those laid out centuries ago by Machiavelli, who recommended to all rulers that they use wars regularly as a tool of power. But early in the Twentieth Century, the Carnegie, Rockefeller and allied interests of the day dreamed of a world in which their power would be absolute, and permanently assured. It would be a world at "peace"—the peace of a world inescapably within their grip. They formed a "commitment" to establish an eventual "one world" government.

A leading institution which was created to coordinate this one-world "commitment" was a tax-exempt foundation: the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. In order to bring about the envisioned "peace" of a one-world government, it was clear that vast changes would have to be wrought in the lives of Americans, as well as of the other peoples of the world. Several years before World War I the trustees spent an entire year debating the question: "Is there any means known to man that is more effective than war in changing the life of an entire nation?" They concluded that the answer was: "No."

And so, to start bringing about the changes needed under the long-range commitment for a one-world government, somehow America had to be gotten into war. The trustees debated how this could be done and concluded that it would be necessary to control the foreign policy machinery of the United States. That implied, in turn, that control had to be established over the State Department. (See CFR, and Illuminati and CFR).

Within a few years the fruits of these deliberations began to be seen in US actions. President Woodrow Wilson won re-election in 1916 on the theme, "He kept us out of war," and then promptly took the United States into World War I. On at least one occasion the trustees of the Carnegie Endowment sent a telegram to Wilson urging him not to let American involvement in the war end too soon. The changes in American life which they desired were beginning to take place.

World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War all were orchestrated in ways designed to serve the purposes of the long-range one-world commitment. But during the decades beginning with World War II, a factor unforeseen by the initiators of the one-world commitment grew steadily in importance. This factor was the ever-accelerating advancement of weapons technology. Starting with the atomic bomb, weaponry has advanced in ways not dreamed of in the early years of the Twentieth Century. And these new technological capabilities have played a role in the progressive collapse of the one-world commitment as originally envisioned.

In 1960 American scientists invented the laser—a device which produces an intense, narrow beam of light. Early lasers were crude and not very powerful, yet it was clear from theoretical studies that someday laser beam weapons would be possible. Other types of beam weapons were also foreseen which were potentially even more devastating than lasers.

Suddenly there was a fatal flaw in the "one world" commitment. The flaw was that it envisioned only one world—the Earth—as the entire arena of human activity. That was beginning to change . . . because mankind was beginning the conquest of space. In 1957, three years before the invention of the laser, the world's first manmade earth satellite had been orbited by the Soviet Union—Sputnik I. The honor of being the first nation in history to do this had been handed to the Soviet Union, even though the United States had been technically capable of doing it first. The Soviet space program was far ahead of that of the United States when, in 1960, the invention of the laser suddenly added an urgent new dimension to the space race. The beam from a laser or other beam weapon can travel through space at the speed of light to strike a target a million miles away within a matter of seconds. Suddenly the moon had become a prize piece of military real estate: whoever controlled the moon could someday use it as a base for beam weapons to control the Earth.

In 1961 the four Rockefeller brothers inaugurated an elaborate, two-pronged program for world domination, with seizure of the moon as its centerpiece. On one hand, the United States would embark on a program of supposed disarmament, whittling back the power of America's visible military forces. But on the other hand, there would be increased emphasis upon development of advanced new secret weapons, unknown to the public and largely unknown even to Congress. And under the guise of a great adventure, the moon would be seized for unadmitted military purposes by way of the Apollo Project.

The four Rockefeller brothers had in mind an eventual double-cross of their secret ally, the Soviet Union, in the programmed nuclear war to come. By seizing control of the moon and installing devastating beam weapons there, they expected to emerge as the final, absolute rulers of the entire world.

In May 1961, President John F. Kennedy announced that the United States would land a man on the moon and return him safely to Earth before the end of the decade. Thus began a crash program ten times bigger than the Manhattan Project to develop the atomic bomb during World War II. It was too big to hide, so instead its military nature was disguised by a constant glare of publicity to portray it all as a lark to pick up some moon rocks. And it succeeded.

When Neil Armstrong planted man's first footprints on the moon in July 1969, it was a sensational event the world over. Little more than three years later, however, it was becoming routine enough in the public eye for America's manned moon program to be removed from public view. The final publicly admitted moon flight was Apollo 17 in December 1972. Thereafter, as the American public became increasingly absorbed in the Watergate Scandal and other matters, the US moon program continued secretly from a new base: the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. Different launch techniques were used there, involving the Skylab space station as a way station to the moon.

While all of this was going on, unexpected developments were brewing in the Soviet Union: a progressive overthrow of the Bolsheviks was steadily accelerating. By the mid-1960's the emerging new Kremlin rulers had learned about the planned Rockefeller double-cross in a programmed nuclear war to come. They redoubled their efforts to complete their overthrow of the Bolsheviks. They also began preparing to beat the Rockefeller brothers to the punch with their own double-cross.

By the mid-1970's, present-day trustees of the major Rockefeller tax-exempt foundations were growing increasingly worried. Signs were multiplying that the one-world commitment formed two generations earlier had jumped the tracks. They were right.

In the summer of 1976 Dr. Beter reported on a major crisis which, to this day, has never been made public officially. This was the Underwater Missile Crisis, in which the Soviet Navy was planting small underwater-launch, short-range missiles with nuclear warheads inside American territorial waters. These were planted close to their targets, able to be fired at a moment's notice by satellite command. If fired, they would destroy coastal target areas with essentially zero warning time—the perfect "first strike." They were planted by means of small sonar-absorbing, super-quiet minisubmarines, designed to move in and out of American territorial waters without being detected by coastal sonar defense nets.

The limited exposure of this crisis by way of the Dr. Beter AUDIO LETTER reports enabled the late General George S. Brown, then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to take action. Over protests by then-Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, General Brown persuaded then-President Gerald Ford to give him the go-ahead to order the US Navy to remove the missiles. In September 1976 Dr. Beter and an associate met with General Brown in his Pentagon office to discuss the crisis. In that meeting, Dr. Beter provided General Brown with the locations of a second round of Soviet underwater missiles. This was information General Brown did not have, thanks to an "intelligence gap" created by Kissinger in context with the former Rockefeller-Soviet alliance.

Exposure of the Soviet missile-planting program took away the crucial element of surprise and helped to avert war at that time. Even so, General Brown was soon neutralized as part of a hopeless Rockefeller attempt to restore the former Rockefeller-Soviet alliance, and many Soviet missiles were never removed from American waters.

As the immediate crisis over the Soviet underwater missiles died down, Dr. Beter learned that other missiles also were planted under the sea. These had been planted earlier and were not Soviet, but American. In violation of international treaties, the United States had planted mammoth multi-warhead missiles on the ocean floor in the Atlantic and Pacific, targeted on the Soviet Union.

The new Kremlin rulers bided their time, allowing the four Rockefeller brothers to convince themselves that they were succeeding in patching up the former alliance. But they were routing the Bolsheviks out of the Kremlin and out of many other high-level positions of power in Russia. At the same time they were finalizing preparations for a surprise many times more decisive than that of the Underwater Missile Crisis.

As the autumn of 1977 approached, American beam weapons were nearing operational status at a secret military base nestled in Copernicus Crater on the moon. But on the night of the Harvest Moon, September 27, 1977, the base was attacked and put out of action by the Soviet Union. For ten years the Russians had been involved in a crash program to develop a family of particle beam weapons, which fire subatomic particles at a target at virtually the speed of light. A neutron beam weapon, fired from an orbiting, manned satellite, killed all the astronauts at the American moon base. (The Russian satellite was partially disabled during the encounter. This was the nuclear-powered satellite, Cosmos 954, which four months later created a worldwide sensation by coming to earth in northern Canada. It was not a crash, but an emergency landing).

The silencing of the secret US moon base was the beginning of a lightning military takeover of space by the Soviet Union. During the final months of 1977, the Soviet Union deployed a "space triad" of manned strategic weapons, to which the United States has no counterpart. First came the "cosmos interceptor" killer satellites, which use particle beam weapons to blast other satellites out of existence. These started hunting down and destroying American spy and early-warning satellites, one by one. Within about six months—by the spring of 1978—they completed the job. Meanwhile Russia's new rulers were demanding that the United States begin laying down its arms by way of SALT II or risk unspecified dire consequences. These circumstances led to a desperate intelligence mission in April 1978, in which a Korean airliner flew into the most sensitive military airspace in the Soviet Union. Russian jet fighters forced the airliner down, but only after special equipment mounted in the plane radioed vital data on the Soviet military alert status to CIA receivers.

In addition to spy satellites, a Russian cosmos interceptor also destroyed the Skylab space station in mid-October, 1977, in order to block any American attempt to return to the moon. Skylab died in a giant fireball seen over much of the United States on October 18, 1977. NASA waited a week or so for all the puzzled questions over the mystery giant fireball to die away and then began a lengthy coverup project, saying Skylab was sinking unexpectedly from orbit.

The second leg of the Russian space triad was deployed and initially tested during October and November of 1977. It is a network of high-power particle beam weapons on the moon, aimed at Earth. The first test of these in November 1977 was carried out under cover of a cyclone in the Bay of Bengal. The beam weapons produced a gigantic double flash. Due apparently to an aiming error in this first test shot, they also created a huge tidal wave which came racing out of the cyclone without warning to inundate large areas of the southeastern Indian coastline. Since that time, the lunar beam weapons have been fired only at target areas well out to sea, for weather modification purposes.

Dr. Beter first reported on the characteristic brilliant double flash produced by the Russian lunar beam weapons in late 1977. Nearly two years later, an aging American Vela satellite happened to detect one of these double flash episodes in the South Atlantic. This led to dramatic rumors for awhile that Israel had tested an atomic bomb in that area with the help of South Africa, since nuclear weapons produce a somewhat similar double flash. But nuclear weapons also produce several additional kinds of radiation along with the double flash, none of which were present in the South Atlantic episode. What the satellite accidentally detected was a test of a new technique for generating artificial storms . . . Since then such artificial storms have been used repeatedly as a weapon of weather warfare.

The third leg of the Russian "space triad" is a fleet of electrogravitic hovering platforms called "cosmospheres." These could have been developed by the United States, and in the early 1960's the late General Thomas Power (then commander of the Strategic Air Command) and others urged that this be done. But instead, all of America's secret space eggs were put into the basket of the Project Apollo moon program. Meanwhile the Soviet Union went ahead with development of these platforms, and in December 1977 their operational deployment began. For several months they announced their presence in hair-raising fashion along the US East Coast and elsewhere by creating mysterious giant air booms. They did this by firing their powerful charged particle beam weapons into the atmosphere in a de-focused mode, in effect causing the air itself to explode. The air booms were an attempt at intimidation of the US Government, but did not accomplish much in that regard. After a few months, the air booms were halted.

Today Russian cosmospheres routinely patrol high above all kinds of American strategic targets. They stand guard especially over American ICBM bases, ready to use their beam weapons to blast the missiles at the moment of launch in the event of war.

The strategic weapons programs of the United States today are designed, first and foremost, to try to counter the secret "space triad" weapons of the Soviet Union. These weapons have yet to be made public by Russia's new rulers, who are well aware that it would precipitate a propaganda disaster for them if they did so. Likewise, America's rulers dare not publicly admit the existence of these weapons which Russia has but America does not. They are afraid that the American public would react with everything from panic, to anger over America's "space gap", to rage at having been lied to up to now. Congress too, having been largely manipulated and kept uninformed, could become unruly in the extreme.

And so, while crash secret weapons programs have been underway in the United States since early 1978, they are kept hidden or their true nature is disguised. A wide range of weapons are involved, from high-power laser weapons with new infrared targeting, to retrofitting of Titan II ICBM's for fractional orbital bombardment with super-yield "doomsday" cobalt-bomb warheads.

It is not practical to review all of these developments reported by Dr. Beter in this "Bird's-Eye View" section. Instead, the basic situation can be illustrated by considering just two weapons programs: the MX missile and the "stealth" aircraft program. The official justifications for these programs are always couched in terms of Russian weapons which everyone knows about—primarily Russia's large missiles. These explanations never quite add up, because they are not the truth. As a result controversy and questions keep swirling around these programs. As old rationales fray and fall apart, new ones are devised which also don't quite add up. Only when the truth about Russia's "space triad" is known do the American weapons programs make sense. Not pleasant sense, but sense.

In June, 1980, Dr. Beter described in detail what the MX program is all about. The big MX missile itself is actually of little importance—but the MX program is being used as an umbrella under which another, completely secret, missile system is being financed and deployed. Dr. Beter reported that the controversy then raging over proposals for a "racetrack" mobile basing system for the MX was only a lightning rod to draw attention away from deployment of America's real mobile missile. This is a much smaller missile, called the Minuteman TX. It was developed virtually from off-the-shelf hardware, and is deployed on America's railroads aboard special rail cars. Dr. Beter described these unique rail cars, and later several listeners spotted them and took photographs which were published in a special bulletin for AUDIO LETTER listeners.

In October, 1981, President Reagan shocked a lot of people by announcing that the MX missile would not be made mobile after all. The ridiculous "racetrack" scheme had served its purpose, which was deception, and was dropped. The controversy has continued, but the MX program has remained alive through it all. Early in 1983, after the termination of the AUDIO LETTER report series, the concept of a smaller mobile missile was the key new ingredient in the public recommendations of the Scowcroft Commission on strategic nuclear forces. Supposedly such a small mobile missile, nicknamed "Midgetman", could not be deployed until the early 1990's. But in actuality, that type of missile is deployed already . . . the Minuteman TX. Its biggest advantage has nothing to do with the alleged first-strike threat of Russian ICBM's. Instead, the deployment of large numbers of small Minuteman TX missiles is intended to make it impossible for Russia's cosmosphere fleet to keep tabs on them all. . . the mobile fleet of Minuteman TX missiles are not designed merely to survive a Soviet nuclear first strike. Instead, the Pentagon Bolsheviks intend to use them as the key to an eventual US first strike against Russia.

The other example to consider is the "stealth" program. This is a multi-faceted program, which actually involves not only aircraft but also a highly secret category of naval warships with their own special bases. Shortly after Dr. Beter reported on the existence of these special bases in the spring of 1982, they spawned naval warfare in the Southern Hemisphere. The visible portion of that conflict was the Falklands War.

Restricting attention to the stealth aircraft program, the most radical and promising development is that of the "phantom warplane." First revealed by Dr. Beter in the spring of 1982, the phantom warplane is as radical an advance in this computer age as the atomic bomb was in an age of adding machines and slide rules. By using powerful computer techniques, Einstein's semi-finished Unified Field Theory has been used to design superconducting electromagnetic field equipment which can bend light waves. Built into an aircraft, this equipment creates a zone around the aircraft which light cannot penetrate: instead, it flows around and onward, like water around a boulder in a stream. The result is that at a distance the airplane is invisible, not only to radar, but even to the eye.

Public comments about the stealth program refer only to radar evasion, not to the far more startling capability of optical invisibility. Once again, this is done in order to limit discussion to a range of weaponry capabilities which will not raise too many public eyebrows. If the full capabilities of the phantom warplane were known, it would raise the question: why is something so radical needed?

The answer lies with Russia's still-secret beam weapons. The most important fact about the invisibility field of a phantom warplane is not the invisibility itself, but the protection which the same field provides against all types of beam weapons.

The Bolsheviks who now control the United States Pentagon want to use all these weapons to crush the Soviet Union from which they have been overthrown and expelled. They have devised elaborate plans . . . to set off a nuclear first strike by the United States against Russia. Nuclear "false alarms," so-called, have been staged in order to test their ability to trigger what will look afterward like accidental nuclear war. American nuclear forces will be led to believe that they are retaliating, instead of striking first.

The United States remains locked out of any large-scale, sustained military presence in space. Even so, a few key reconnaissance and other military tasks must be carried out in space in order to prepare for war. For that purpose the Space Shuttle is being used in ways hidden from public view. The NASA Space Shuttle program is nominally civilian, but after the first Space Shuttle launch the civilian director of the program was eased out. Today the Shuttle director is Air Force General James Abrahamson.

It is often said that the world today lives under the threat of a Battle of Armageddon which, for the first time in history, could conceivably live up its apocalyptic description in the Bible. What is less well known is that certain satanic forces are actively planning for such a conflict and trying to bring it about. And they are harnessing the ingenuity of man to create Armageddon-style weapons about which the public is never informed.

Summary

In surveying the 80 cassette tapes of the AUDIO LETTER report series, a single gigantic picture emerges. The most striking thing about this picture is that countless seemingly unrelated, chaotic-appearing news events turn out not to be chaotic after all. Instead they are all tied together by a limited number of forces at work behind the scenes. Once one knows these forces, one becomes far better able to sort out the true meaning of events.

Three major power groups are struggling today for worldwide influence and power. Like icebergs, they are partially visible but mostly hidden. From a secular American perspective the three primary power factions are the Rockefeller Cartel of big oil, big banking and big business; the Bolshevik-Zionist Axis; and the New Kremlin rulers of Russia.

The relationships among these groups have shifted radically over the past decade or so. The Bolsheviks used to control the Soviet Union, and while they did there was a secret alliance between them and the Rockefeller Cartel. But they have been overthrown and expelled from top levels of power in Russia by the New Kremlin rulers, who are anti-Bolshevik and are, in fact, a secret sect of native Russian Christians. During 1976 and 1977 Russia's new rulers unilaterally terminated the long-time Rockefeller-Soviet alliance, together with its plans for programmed nuclear war on the way to a "one world" government. The four Rockefeller brothers, then in control of the Rockefeller Cartel, welcomed the expelled Bolsheviks from Russia into positions of power here in the United States. That was a fatal mistake, which led to the overthrow of the four Rockefeller brothers at Bolshevik hands from mid-1978 to early 1979. Since that time there has been a steadily intensifying power struggle between the Bolsheviks here and the regrouped Rockefeller Cartel for control over the US Government. Generally speaking, the Bolsheviks have been getting their way in military affairs, while the Rockefeller Cartel has greater power in the economic realm. Since early 1982, there has been a limited quid pro quo between the Rockefeller Cartel and the New Kremlin against their common bitter enemy, the Bolsheviks. Meanwhile the strong links between the American Bolsheviks and the Zionist rulers of Israel have been forged into a secret joint military junta—the Bolshevik-Zionist Axis—bent on war.

Politics, economics, and international relations (including war) are constantly used by these world power factions as they struggle with one another. Economic manipulations, covert intelligence maneuvers and a proliferating array of secret weapons are features of this struggle. But as made clear in many of Dr. Beter's tapes, the basic struggle is a spiritual one.

Dr. Beter terminated his AUDIO LETTER report series in November 1982 due to declining health. Events which have taken place since then are beyond the scope of this précis. Even so, peppered throughout the tapes are many discussions of plans and events still in gestation, and knowing those plans can help provide many clues to the meaning of events still to come. Beyond that, the past is always prologue to the future. By studying the many events which ran their course during the seven-odd years of the Dr. Beter AUDIO LETTER series, one can learn a great deal about the underlying forces still at work in our world.

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, we appreciate your fellowship in God's unchanging Word.

As our Church will be before the Federal Court at 10:30 am on September 14 we do not anticipate publishing a Newsletter next week. This will allow you time to read the on-line book and Audio Letters linked to our main article. Please uphold us in prayer as the decision will potentially affect everyone - not only Christians - and not only in Australia. Although we rest upon Scriptural and historical truths, an adverse decision will become "case law" employed to intimidate and oppress others even more severely than we have suffered.

Under another name and in a different occupation, Esau/Edom lives by his sword in every nation (Genesis 4:14; 27:39-40). People and nations tread down rather than honour Jacob/Israel in accordance with the prophecy of Isaac when he gave Israel Esau's blessing (Genesis 27:28-29). Today Israel is ruled by Esau/Edom who was forcibly assimilated in 109BC under John Hyrcanus, and by Edom's pagan kinfolk of Khazaria, a people twenty times more numerous than Israel, who adopted Talmudic Judaism overnight in AD740, "so they are not all Israel, who are of Israel" (Romans 9:6).

Until "the fullness of the Gentile dispensation has come in" (Romans 11:25), the descendents of Israel will remain blind to God's Word and their nation will be ruled by Gentiles, as it is today, to the consummation of life on earth (Jeremiah 5:21; Daniel 9:27; Matthew 23:39; Luke 21:24; Romans 11:25-28; Revelation 11:1-2, 8).

Benjamin Freedman's Address to US Marine Cadets in 1974

"Dr. Samuel Johnson wrote the first English Dictionary in 1797. That's only a few years from 1800, which isn't so very long ago! It consists of two thick volumes. And it has possibly every word that was then used in the English language. I have shown that too many important people in all walks of life, and they were amazed, because when I told them what I am going to tell you now, they didn't believe me. So I acquired these two books—cost a little money. They're first editions, rare! In that book, in those two volumes, the first English dictionary ever published by Dr. Samuel Johnson, (about whom, many of you know), the word 'Jew' does not appear"!

Comment: It is an incontestable fact that the word "Jew" did not come into existence until the year 1775.

The Jerusalem Declaration on Christian Zionism

Christian Zionism is a modern theological and political movement that embraces the most extreme ideological positions of Zionism, thereby becoming detrimental to a just peace within Palestine and Israel. The Christian Zionist programme provides a worldview where the Gospel is identified with the ideology of empire, colonialism and militarism. In its extreme form, it laces an emphasis on apocalyptic events leading to the end of history rather than living Christ's love and justice today.

We categorically reject Christian Zionist doctrines as false teaching that corrupts the biblical message of love, justice and reconciliation. Full story: j-diocese.com

Manhattan Project a Ruse

Science is decades in advance of what the public are led to believe. As Henry Ford said, "History is bunk"!

Interviewed on Dr. Bill Deagle's radio program, Mr. John Ragsdale said his father had been a physicist working on the NWO atomic bomb program with German and Japanese scientists in the 1930s. He claims an atomic bomb was detonated in the Baltic Sea in 1938 and on Bikini Atoll before 1940. He also said that a Canadian Army division secured Moscow for the Bolsheviks and garrisoned it for the Red Army. . . (as US troops defended railways, oil wells and other infrastructure in behalf of the Judaeo-Communist invaders).

"John Ragsdale told how in 1939 his father witnessed a joint US-German nuclear test of a plutonium bomb three hundred miles off Bikini Atoll and stated that there was US-German-Japan collaboration in the atom bomb." (Dr. Peter Beter says the bombs dropped on Japan were "Made in Germany," having been captured by the US). Listen: nutrimedical.com

Bush pushes Nuclear Weapons Development in US

In the face of increased Congressional opposition to US nuclear weapons development, the Bush administration appears to be making an end run around governmental checks and balances. The bizarrely named Divine Strake project is a 700-ton explosive experiment first scheduled to detonate at the Nevada Test Site in June of this year. Thanks to furious grass-roots opposition to the proposal, Divine Strake has been twice delayed, and is currently projecting a detonation date of no sooner than early 2007. Full story: truthout.org

War on the Homeland Retroactive Legislation being rushed to
protect Administration Officials from War Crimes Prosecution

Paul Craig Roberts, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan administration, Associate Editor of the Wall Street Journal editorial page, Contributing Editor of National Review, and co-author of The Tyranny of Good Intentions writes:

On August 23 the BBC reported that Amnesty International has brought war crimes charges against Israel for deliberately targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure as an "integral part" of Israel's strategy in its recent invasion of Lebanon. Bush blocked the attempt to stop Israel's aggression and is, thereby, equally responsible for the war crimes. Indeed, a number of reports claim that Bush instigated the Israeli aggression against Lebanon. Bush has other war crime problems. . .

Under the Nuremberg standard, Bush is definitely a war criminal. The US Supreme Court also exposed Bush to war crime charges under both the US War Crimes Act of 1996 and the Geneva Conventions when the Court ruled in Hamdan -v- Rumsfeld against the Bush administration's military tribunals and inhumane treatment of detainees. President Bush and his Attorney General agree that under existing laws and treaties Bush is a war criminal together with many members of his government. . . Full story: rense.com

Former Senator, Jesse Helms, Dissects the NWO

December 15, 1987– Senator Jesse Helms addresses the US Senate on warning against the New World Order: "This campaign against the American people—against traditional American culture and values—is systematic psychological warfare. It is orchestrated by a vast array of interests comprising not only the Eastern establishment but also the radical left. Among this group we find the Department of State, the Department of Commerce, the money center banks and multinational corporations, the media, the educational establishment, the entertainment industry, and the large tax-exempt foundations.

Mr. President, a careful examination of what is happening behind the scenes reveals that all of these interests are working in concert with the masters of the Kremlin in order to create what some refer to as a New World Order. Private organizations such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Trilateral Commission, Dartmouth Conference, Aspen Institute for Humanistic Studies, Atlantic Institute, and the Bilderberger Group serve to disseminate and to coordinate the plans for this so-called New World Order in powerful business, financial, academic, and official circles. . . .

In this point of view, the activities of international financial and industrial forces should be oriented to bringing this one-world design—with a convergence of the Soviet and American systems as its centerpiece—into being. . . . All that matters to this club is the maximization of profits resulting from the practice of what can be described as finance capitalism, a system which rests upon the twin pillars of debt and monopoly. This isn't real capitalism. It is the road to economic concentration and to political slavery." Full story: rense.com

Conspirators' Hierarchy: Story of the Committee of 300

Above all, the battle is a spiritual one. Unfortunately, the Christian churches have become little more than social clubs run by the infinitely evil World Council of Churches (WCC), whose beginnings lie not in Moscow but in the City of London, as we see from the chart at the end of the book which gives the structure of the One World Government Church. This body was set up in the 1920's to serve as a vehicle for One World Government policies, and stands as a monument to the long-range planning capabilities of the Committee of 300. Another corrupt body similar in structure and design to the WCC is the Union of Concerned Scientists, set up by the Trilateral Commission, and funded by the Carnegie Endowment Fund, the Ford Foundation and Aspen Institute. This is the group that has led the fight to prevent the United States from mounting an effective deterrent against Soviet Cosmospheres, space-based laser beam weapons which can destroy selected targets in the United States or elsewhere from outer space. The United States SDI program was designed to counter the threat posed by Soviet Cosmospheres, a threat which still exists in spite of the assurances that "communism is dead." Soviet spokesman Georgi Arbatov told a meeting of the Union of Concerned Scientists that it is important for them to oppose the SDI program, because if the SDI program became operational, "it will be a military catastrophe." Year after year the Union of Concerned Scientists has opposed every budget which included funding for the vital SDI program, until by the end of 1991, there is not even enough money to fund further research still required let alone place the system in orbit. The Union of Concerned Scientists is run by the Royal Institute for International Affairs and is heavily infiltrated with M16 British intelligence agents. Full story: bibliotecapleyades.net

Russia develops New Space Station without NASA's Help

August 30, 2006– Directors of the Russian space enterprise Roskosmos were quite late with their answer to US President George W. Bush who ordered NASA specialists last year to shift their attention from near-Earth orbit works to ambitious plans connected with the exploration of the Moon and Mars. Deputy Head of Roskosmos, Vitaly Davidov, stated at the 5th International Space Congress in Moscow that Russia would be able to implement its programs without the cooperation with other leading space powers. According to the official, Russia plans to launch a new manned station into orbit after 2015.

Unlike the International Space Station, the new station, Davidov said, will be oriented at space exploration in Russia's interests. The zone to observe Russia from space will be expanded considerably too (the ISS currently observes only ten percent of Russia's territory). . . The statement about the long-term sovereign plans of the Russian space industry was made at the moment when NASA had to indefinitely delay the launch of Shuttle Atlantis. ISS partners had to adjust the schedule of their space flights. The US space industry has not been able to recover completely after the catastrophe with Shuttle Columbia. . . Full story: pravda.ru

Murdered sect leader 'was secret Catholic'

September 8, 2006 – Just over a year ago, Brother Roger, aged 90, was stabbed to death in public by a deranged Romanian pilgrim in the community he founded to promote unity in the Christian Church. The following week he was given a funeral service according to Catholic rites, fulfilling a wish he expressed before he died . . . a former Catholic bishop of Autun, whose diocese includes the village of Taizé, has said Brother Roger made a Catholic "profession of faith" in 1972. "Brother Roger himself told me he was a Catholic," Monseigneur Raymond Séguy said. His Catholic allegiance was never made public as Brother Roger did not want to destroy his ecumenical achievements at Taizé . . . At the funeral of Pope John Paul II last year, Brother Roger was seen to take communion from the hands of Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger. The future Pope Benedict XVI had always opposed proposals that, in the name of Christian unity, Protestants should be allowed to participate in the Catholic mass.

The mystery of how the "Protestant" Brother Roger came to receive the host from Cardinal Ratzinger's own hand has now been solved. Full story: independent.co.uk

Comment: How many Judaeo-Catholics are there within the circle of this Message, Brother Judas? Satan's objective is the miraculous union of churches (Revelation 13:14), God is calling the wise and foolish virgin out from every denomination into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation (Revelation 18:4).

Monsanto Buys 'Terminator' Seeds Company

The United States Government has been financing research on a genetic engineering technology which, when commercialized, will give its owners the power to control the food seed of entire nations or regions. The Government has been working quietly on this technology since 1983. Now, the little-known company that has been working in this genetic research with the Government's US Department of Agriculture—Delta & Pine Land—is about to become part of the world's largest supplier of patented genetically-modified seeds (GMO), Monsanto Corporation of St. Louis, Missouri.

Relations between Monsanto, Delta & Pine Land and the USDA, on closer scrutiny, show the deep and dark side of the much-heralded genetic revolution in agriculture. It proves deep-held suspicions that the Gene Revolution is not about 'solving the world hunger problem' as its advocates claim. It's about handing over control of the seeds for mankind's basic food supply—rice, corn, soybeans, wheat, even fruit, vegetables and cotton—to privately owned corporations. . . They wanted to get Terminator seeds into the developing world where the Rockefeller Foundation had made eventual proliferation of genetically engineered crops the heart of its GMO strategy from the beginnings of its rice genome project . . .

In October 1999, however, following a worldwide storm of protest against Terminator seeds that threatened the very future of the Rockefeller Foundation's 'Gene Revolution' Dr. Gordon Conway, President of the prestigious Rockefeller Foundation, met privately with the Board of Directors of Monsanto. Conway convinced Monsanto that for the long-term future of their GMO Project, they must go public to indicate to a worried world that it would not 'commercialize' Terminator. . . The world was left with the (misleading) impression that Terminator was dead. Reality was it was anything but dead. Seven years later, long after public outcry against Terminator technology had died down, Monsanto re-entered and bought Delta & Pine Land and its Terminator patents . . .

The key scientific member of the Delta & Pine Land board since 1993 has been Dr. Nam-Hai Chua. Chua, 62, is also head of the Rockefeller University Plant Molecular Biology Laboratory in New York, and has been for over 25 years, the labs which are at the heart of the Rockefeller Foundation's decades-long development, and spending of more than $100 millions of its own research grants to create their Gene Revolution. Until 1995, Chua was also a scientific consultant to Monsanto Corporation, as well as to DuPont's Pioneer Hi-Bred International. Chua is at the heart of Rockefeller's Gene Revolution. And, clearly, Delta & Pine Land and their research on Terminator have been in the center of that work. Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: Rockefeller and the image unto the beast have turned food crops for life into WMD for death. Daniel 6:25, "By peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand".

Pray Not for this People

Jeremiah 7:8-16, "Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot profit. Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, and swear falsely, burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you have not known, and then come and stand before Me in this house, which is called by My Name, and say, 'We are delivered,' only to go on committing all these abominations? Has this house, which is called by My Name, become a den of robbers in your eyes? Behold, even I Myself have seen it, says the Lord."

"Go now to My place which was in Shiloh, where I caused My Name to dwell at the first, and see what I did to it on account of the wickedness of My people Israel. And now, because you have done all these things, says the Lord, and when I spoke to you persistently you did not listen; and when I called you, you did not answer; therefore I will do to the house which is called by My Name, and in which you are trusting, and to the place which I gave to you and your fathers, as I did to Shiloh. I will cast you out of My sight, as I cast out all your kinsmen, all the offspring of Ephraim."

"As for you, pray not for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them, do not intercede to Me: for I will not hear you".

In the first seven verses the Lord admonished Judah to amend its ways from worshipping "other gods" with Him, and opposed their false confidence in the apparently infallible objective guarantee of salvation in the possession of the outward temple while in the remainder of this chapter He exhorts and threatens the people for their pseudo-worship of Jehovah, idolatry, impenitence, falsehood, deceit, violence, and finally exile in Babylon and destruction of the temple. It was not the outward temple with its ritual that ensures the favour of Jehovah, but the service which is offered in His temple by sanctified hearts and which manifests in works of righteousness. The people lived under the delusion that the temple could not be destroyed because it belonged to Jehovah, but God destroyed both the temple and condemned His people to a lifetime of captivity.

Romans 2:28-29, "One is not a Jew from his outward appearance; nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh: but a Jew is one inwardly; and so circumcision is that of the heart, a Spiritual revelation rather than a mere literal observance of the letter. Such a man's praise comes not from men but from God".

Israel did not follow the exhortation of Jeremiah but regarded the external place of grace with carnal superstition as though it were a magic spot where one need only to present himself in order to be delivered from all the evil consequences of sin, and the sanctuary thus used became a den of robbers. Jesus made the same accusation six hundred and forty-four years later, and once again God destroyed that temple made with hands (Matthew 21:13).

God dispels this allusion as to the infallible power to save of the supposed irrevocably chosen place of grace by pointing to Shiloh. In the days when Eli Judged Israel and the nation was deep in idolatry and morally corrupt (I Samuel 2:22-25; 7:3; Psalms 78:58-64), God brought it subject to the Philistines. But instead of cherishing a spirit of deep humiliation and sincere repentance, resolving on the abolition of existing abuses and restoring the pure faith (as God admonished us Gentiles by the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:1-11), Israel placed their trust in ceremonial observances as the Roman Catholic charismatic revival and ecumenical movement has done, carrying the outward Ark into the battlefield to ensure victory—like their idolatrous neighbors who carried their idol Dagon into war, or as Roman Catholics who parade the monstrance and images, believing that the power of their divinities was inseparably associated with or residing in their images—when their first work ought to have been a complete reformation and universal return to purity of worship and morals. Following their shout of Pentecostal joy the Philistines slew thirty thousand Israelites and captured the Ark. When Eli's daughter-in-law heard the news and learned that Eli and her husband were dead, she gave birth, and as she died, she named her child Ichabod, saying, "The glory is departed from Israel: for the Ark of God is taken" (I Samuel 4).

Unbeknownst to her citizens the United States is a proxy fighter for the City of London, following the motto, "By Way of Deception Thou shalt make War." The United States is a type of Israel as it was settled by a people seeking freedom to worship the one true God, but it rejected its last call to national repentance in 1956/7 which was the Jubilee of the 1906 Azusa Street, Los Angeles revival, from which the Laodicean Church Age is dated. Since that time the United States has been sliding toward the abyss and has lost every war in which it has involved itself. Very soon earth will open her mouth to devour Los Angeles and a 1,500x3-400 mile section of earth, "for the glory is departed from (Spiritual) Israel"—so-called.

Brother Branham said of the United States, "It's a million miles from being a Christian country. I don't even pray for it. How can I pray for it, and it won't repent under the mighty powers of God demonstrated before it, and denying, and closing the doors to it, and walking away? I commit it to God. And she's going further away, and now she's going to sink. Just watch what happens" (Trying to do God a Service, p. 23:136).

The United States is as far West as the Gospel can travel before it skips the pagan lands of Cain who "went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of wandering, on the east of Eden" and returns to Jerusalem. Thus the West coast of the United States, which pollutes the whole world with sin and is controlled by the enemy of God and man, represents the end of Christendom.

I John 5:16, "If any man see his brother sin a sin which is not unto death, he shall ask, and God will give him Life for those whose sin is not unto death. There is a sin unto death: I do not say that he shall pray for it." The one sin unto death is blaspheming the Holy Spirit (Matthew 12:31-32; Mark 3:28-29; John 3:18; Hebrews 6:6-8; 10:26).

If one is born-again, it is impossible to commit the unpardonable sin. I John 3:9, "Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for His seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God." Also I Peter 1:22-25. Hebrews 10:2, "The Old Testament sacrifices have ceased to be offered because those who worship God in Spirit and truth, being once purged by the Blood of Jesus, have no more desire to sin." But if the desire remains, your heart is not right with God.

Now sin still resides in your mortal spirit and corruptible flesh, which you must bring under submission to the Word in your soul. You will make mistakes and do wrong as Paul explains in Romans 7:13-25 but you won't do it willfully. It's just that your ten senses are carnal, for their nature is of "the first man who is born of the earth, earthy" (I Corinthians 15:47-48); they temporarily evaded the authority of the second man in your soul. You, your heaven-born soul did not willfully do wrong, you were trapped by that worldly nature in your unredeemed body and spirit and will repent as soon as you recognize you've done wrong.

Norman Dodd, research director for the US House of Congress Special Committee to Investigate Tax-Exempt Foundations was invited to examine the warehoused records of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. The minutes, inspected by a Dodd researcher, revealed that in 1910 the Carnegie trustees asked: "Is there any way known to man more effective than war, to so alter the life of an entire people?" The trustees ultimately decided that war was the most effective way to change people. A year later the minutes showed that the trustees asked: "How do we involve the United States in a war?" And they answered: "We must control the diplomatic machinery of the United States," by first gaining "control of the State Department." The answer was the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) founded in 1921 as successor to an inactive organization of the same name founded in 1919 and the above ground 'front' for the Round Table of the City of London. The trustees also sent a confidential message to President Wilson insisting that World War I not end too quickly. Dodd also found that all high appointments in the State Department took place only after they had been cleared by the Council of Learned Societies (established by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace).

Andrew Carnegie established The Church Peace Union at a meeting in his home in 1914 with an endowment of over $2 million. The organization convened its first international conference on August 1, 1914, the eve of the German invasion of Belgium, on the shore of Lake Constance in Southern Germany. Just as the delegates were pledging their determination to end war forever, trains carrying delegates were halted and turned back; other delegates were arrested by German authorities and imprisoned for several weeks. Whereas it once focused on the role of religious leaders in peace work—first known as The Church Peace Union, it was renamed in the early 1960s to the Council on Religion and International Affairs—the institution is currently dedicated to the study of how ethics can be combined with international affairs.  Can you say "the union of church and state"?

Early in 1963 the exact form of the Iron Mountain 15-member peace study by the Hudson Institute was worked out. In 1976 Taylor Caldwell summarized the 1967 Report from Iron Mountain on the Possibility and Desirability of Peace, "There will be no peace in the tormented world, only a programmed and systematic series of wars and calamities—until the plotters have gained their objective: an exhausted world willing to submit to a planned Marxist economy and total and meek enslavement—in the name of peace"—in other words, perpetual war for perpetual peace. It has taken almost 100 years but George II has accomplished their objective with World War III. Jesus said that beginning with World War I; there will be no peace (Matthew 24:7-9).

As Emperor Constantine united church and state by events that culminated in the First Nicaea Council of AD325, on March 7, George II moved closer to uniting church and state with his Executive Order #13397. The purpose of this Executive Order appears to be to establish a comprehensive data bank on all "faith based" entities in the United States, which, because of their 501C3 tax-free status are now designated agencies of the government, and hence liable to government regulation and control, "harmonized" and subject to central oversight by Homeland Security. "As directed by the President, the Center will conduct a department-wide audit to identify barriers to faith-based and other community organizations' participation in our programs and activities, and propose ways to remove these barriers and to better integrate the community into our efforts." Revelation 13:15, "The US government has power to give life to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast (a union of church and state) should both declare and enforce Presidential Executive Orders, so that as many as would not serve the image of the beast should be killed".

George II has threatened, "Those who are not with us are against us." Already the United States is speaking like the Roman Dragon before her, "working those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to the inhabiters of earth that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live" (Revelation 13:14). "These miracles" constitute the union of once Protestant churches with the State to form an image unto Rome.

George II is enacting the centralized policy of a satanic higher authority. Australia's government has also made so-called "faith based" institutions responsible for administering certain welfare programs on a "for profit" basis, causing them to establish infrastructure with hundreds, even thousands of employees and "customers." Without the leading of the Spirit these religious institutions and their members are being brought under central, secular control with the threat of financial collapse and community opprobrium should they fail to follow orders from a Satanic higher authority and have their funding withdrawn (I Timothy 6:10). This is the proven system employed for over a century by the Rockefeller organization to gain worldwide control of perception by education and communications (media and entertainment) programmed to direct outcomes that will realize hidden, pre-planned objectives.

Bertrand Russell said, "I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology. . . Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these the most influential is what is called 'education.' Religion plays a part, though a diminishing one; the press, the cinema, and the radio play an increasing part. . . It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment. This subject will make great strides when it is taken up by scientists under a scientific dictatorship . . ."

"Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. When the technique has been perfected, every government that has been in charge of education for a generation will be able to control its subjects securely without the need of armies or policemen" (The Impact of Science on Society, 1953).

Now you see why government is so against home schooling—state schooling is a Judaeo-Communist system to tailor minds and bodies to fit state plans for the next fifty years. You should also see why you should not have television in the home.

Brother Branham said, "At this time Raamses in Egypt was growing. His power's growing. The natural man, Raamses, was growing. The natural man, the antichrist, is growing now through politics. He's already got to the White House (a pharaoh who does not know Joseph– Ed.). In religion, he's got all the people so scrupled up till actually they'd fall right for it. And the denominational leaders . . . Practically every church that there is in the nation is already in the confederation of churches. Raamses is growing, and they're all uniting together, and that's what they'll have. And what does it do? It makes a power, a beast just like the first one."

"Then there's a persecution coming upon all those who won't unite with it, and a boycott. It'll be too late then; you've already took the mark. Don't say, "I'll do it then." You better do it now. Raamses was growing."

"But remember while Raamses was growing in the power in Egypt, God had Moses in the wilderness. He was growing too. (Moses means "taken," or "drawn out" and he represents Christ's end-time Bride, separated from the world and dwelling alone in the wilderness—Revelation 12:6). Raamses had a political system. God had a spiritual system under a prophet ready to come down and speak to the people. They're both growing again. It'll be a showdown one of these days. The time ain't far off when there'll come a showdown" (Third Exodus, p. 24:5-8).

Moses' two sons, Gershom, meaning "a stranger here" and Eliezer which means "God of help" were born in the wilderness, not in Egypt. They type Israel's two prophets now living in Jerusalem "which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt where our Lord was crucified" (Revelation 11:8). Israel's war against Lebanon caused a cancellation of the World Pride 2006 parade in Jerusalem organized by Jewish sodomites. It was to have retraced the path of Jesus' Cross and terminate in a rally at the Temple Mount and Dome of the Rock.

"Oh, come, Oh, come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel".

Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Daniel and all of the Old Testament prophets spoke at great length on the current and future geopolitical situation. So did Jesus Christ in the Gospels and in the Book of Revelation. The Prophet Paul commanded: "Study to show yourself approved of God by rightly dividing the Word of Truth." Brother Branham instructed us to study our enemy to know his moves so that like a boxer we can defend our own weaknesses. This is something only you can do. As the old truism says, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink".

This ministry has led us to the water of the present truth prophesied by Daniel and Jesus in particular and revealed by Brother Branham in these last days. His expositions reveal the signs of the time. We must recognize, turn and follow to where they are leading in order for God to unfold the Message in its fullness personally to us. It will lead us to a clear understanding of God's revealed Word and show us what Jesus is doing now, and what we must do in order to fullfil our part of His Word.

In Hosea 4:6 God said, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." The foolish virgin is without oil is either because her pastor has insufficient oil to impart the Life of Christ. In other words, he is not born-again and without the revelation of the Message, a Laodicean saint without the present truth, or because they are content to rejoice in the singing and hear the ministry, but too slothful to "receive the Word with all readiness of mind then search the Scripture, whether those things are so" (Acts 17:11). Foolish virgin content to receive a second-hand religion delivered by their pastor have a denominational spirit and forget the need for THUS SAITH THE LORD of a personal confirmation by the Spirit, for "the letter without the Spirit is death".

This is why I encourage you to read the book linked to Newsletter #439 and read through Dr. Peter Beter's Audio Letters. This reading will probably take about five or more days but it will bring enhance your understanding of scientific progress and geopolitical activities that have been taking place behind the 'front' of the puppet elected governments of our sham Hegelian democracies. Our perception is fifty or more years behind reality. These Audio Letters bring out the meaning of Brother Branham's words: "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America. Based on these seven visions, along with the rapid changes which have swept the world in the last fifty years, I PREDICT (I do not prophesy) that these visions will have all come to pass by 1977 . . . I repeat, I sincerely believe and maintain as a private student of the Word, along with Divine inspiration that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3-4).

Dr. Bryan Monahan wrote on September 23, 1967, ". . . Just about all that is left is the threat of a nuclear confrontation, and even this becomes less credible as we are told, whether truthfully or not, that the USSR is closing the nuclear 'gap' and perfecting a system of anti-missile missiles while the American Secretary for 'Defence' steadfastly refuses even to initiate such a system, which at this stage would require more time to complete than almost certainly is now available. Khrushchev meant that he would bury us, and his boast that our grandsons would be Communists probably disguised the intent to consolidate victory well before most of us have grandchildren" (The Moving Storm, p: 72:3).

Last week, three weeks short of forty years since Dr. Monahan wrote those words, George II announced some successful tests in the development of a US missile defense system.

Russia's scientific superiority enabled her nuclear-armed submarines to encircle the US and also to achieve victory in the Battle of the Harvest Moon in space in 1977, hastening US acceptance of the SALT (Strategic Arms Limitation Talks) II agreement, a continuation of agreements made under the SALT I talks. This sought to curtail the manufacture of strategic nuclear weapons which would have disarmed the United States, leaving Russia with weapons far more sophisticated than nuclear bombs. Six months after the signing, the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, and as such the treaty was never ratified by the United States Senate. Its terms were nonetheless honored by both sides. Once she was disarmed, the intention of the Kremlin's leaders was to ultimately strike the United States in a devastating military blow, as Brother Branham forewarned in 1957: "They got a sputnik, and they can put a man in it, dozens of them, send them up there in sky, and move right over this United States" (Speak to this Mountain, #57:1215) and 1958, "Surrender or go to dust. What could we do? O God, the church will be gone then" (Have Faith in God, #58-0510). The more fully America can be disarmed beforehand, the less suffering will have to be endured by Russia as the price of destroying America for all time. Up until February 2002, the United States had produced a total of 70,000 nuclear weapons of seventy-one major types over the course of the past half-century and its current arsenal remains central to its military posture.

In the natural we see how "the world systems" were terminated in 1977 and the Millennium began to be ushered in. In the Spiritual, 1977 marked twelve years after the Message was complete and saw the Bride reach the age of accountability. The revelation of the Message began to unfold to her, and today just one more inch of the distance between the 42-inch horns of the beast of Brother Branham's vision remains before its independent sovereign reign is terminated under the forty-second presidency, and "a most beautiful, but cruel woman arises in America," the rise of the Roman Catholic church fulfilling the sixth of seven consecutive visions the Lord revealed in 1933.

Legislation that could proscribe political and religious thought and expression antithetical to the policy of the hidden hand behind our governments is on the statute books now, or in Presidential Executive Orders, all that is required to commence the boycott and persecution of religious, social or political dissenters is the next pre-planned "Pearl Harbour" incident, the earthquake that will sink Los Angeles and ignite the Pacific ring of fire accompanied perhaps by a triggering of the nuclear devices planted throughout the United States, fulfilling the seventh consecutive vision the Lord showed to His Prophet. I believe this tectonic cataclysm will be induced by man as the rain that caused the Great Flood was induced by man.

There's a new world coming. Both Testaments declare, "I will show signs and wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. The Sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the great and terrible day of the Lord" (Joel 2:30-32; Acts 2:19-20).

"A man that could take the challenge of a priest, and let a drunken soldier spit in His face . . . Today we got the wrong conception of power. Power is overcoming, returning good for evil, that's real power that can love your enemy, do good to those that do evil to you. That's real power; that's God power. Yes! Maniacs can break chains. But it takes a real man to return good for evil, from his heart, not because of religious duty, but from his heart" (William Branham, From that Time, #61-0520). eb440.htm

US War Prisons Legal Vacuum for 14,000

September 16, 2006– In the few short years since the first shackled Afghan shuffled off to Guantanamo, the US military has created a global network of overseas prisons, its islands of high security keeping 14,000 detainees beyond the reach of established law. Disclosures of torture and long-term arbitrary detentions have won rebuke from leading voices including the UN secretary-general and the US Supreme Court. But the bitterest words come from inside the system, the size of several major US penitentiaries. "It was hard to believe I'd get out," Baghdad shopkeeper Amjad Qassim al-Aliyawi told The Associated Press after his release - without charge - last month. "I lived with the Americans for one year and eight months as if I was living in hell."

Captured on battlefields, pulled from beds at midnight, grabbed off streets as suspected insurgents, tens of thousands now have passed through US detention . . . then released months or years later without apology, compensation or any word on why they were taken. Seventy to 90 percent of the Iraq detentions in 2003 were "mistakes," US officers once told the International Red Cross. But dozens of ex-detainees, government ministers, lawmakers, human rights activists, lawyers and scholars in Iraq, Afghanistan and the United States said the detention system often is unjust and hurts the war on terror by inflaming anti-Americanism in Iraq and elsewhere. Full story: truthout.org

Comment: The purpose of this arbitrary imprisonment and torture of innocent men is twofold. Firstly, it creates a veneer of justification for this "war on an abstract noun" and plays for time until World War III develops into its unstoppable "hot" stage. Secondly, it generates universal fear and justifies hatred for American military force, in particular within the United States. This war will subdue political Zionism and Islam, elevate Rome to world hegemony and render the United States her subservient and feared enforcer.

Brigadier General J. H. Rothschild, once Commanding General of the US Army Chemical Corps Research and Development Command, wrote in his book, Tomorrow's Weapons (McGraw-Hill, 1964): "Sabotage operations are planned to achieve specific objectives. . . . they would be used to break down public confidence immediately preceding the outbreak of hostilities, or otherwise tied into an overall design. A sustained campaign of sabotage acts, irregularly dispersed with regard to time and area of occurrence, can produce a constant build-up of public fear and a complete loss of confidence in authority."

General Rothschild was an expert in biological and psychoactive chemical weaponry. The world is being brainwashed, our consciences altered to accept torture, deceit and killing as matter-of-fact, provided it is approved by a central, faceless authority whom we obey through fear.

The Illuminati planners of three world wars and three major revolutions they calculate will deliver them world hegemony in fulfillment of Matthew 4:8-9 and the prophecies of Daniel and Jesus control your government and judicature. Following ten years' defamation in the national media, your Church has been persecuted for the past two years under laws drafted and enacted by Illuminus minions. Although "we have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin," the groundwork exists whereby "truth is no defence," judges are transmogrified into prosecutors, affidavits ignored and evidence returned unread—three times in our case. Brethren, the "squeeze" is at the door. Because we are weak, innocent Muslims and your Church are its early victims, but after the earthquake sinks Los Angeles the image of the beast will be empowered to kill all who do not submit to its doctrine or service as Daniel and Jesus foretold.

Venezuela's Chavez calls US President Bush "the Devil"

New York, September 20, 2006– Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez took his verbal battle with the United States to the floor of the UN General Assembly on Wednesday, calling President Bush "the Devil."

I would like to invite you, very respectfully, to read this book. Noam Chomsky, one of the most prestigious American and world intellectuals, Noam Chomsky, and this is one of his most recent books, 'Hegemony or Survival: The Imperialist Strategy of the United States.'" Full story: drudgereport.com

Comment: What Mr. Chavez lacks in diplomacy is compensated by his 20:20 vision and candor.

IDF Commander: More than a Million Cluster Bombs used against Lebanon

"What we did was insane and monstrous, we covered entire towns in cluster bombs," the head of an IDF rocket unit in Lebanon said regarding the use of cluster bombs and phosphorous shells during the war. Quoting his battalion commander, the rocket unit head stated that the IDF fired around 1,800 cluster bombs, containing over 1.2 million cluster bomblets.

In addition, soldiers in IDF artillery units testified that the army used phosphorous shells during the war, widely forbidden by international law. According to their claims, the vast majority of said explosive ordinance was fired in the final 10 days of the war. Full story: truthout.org

Muslims Express Fury over Pope's Remarks

Ankara, September 15, 2006– Muslims around the world expressed outrage Friday over Pope Benedict XVI's comments on Islam, with Turkey's ruling party accusing him of trying to revive the spirit of the Crusades and scores taking to the streets in protest . . .

Benedict quoted from a book recounting a conversation between 14th century Byzantine Christian Emperor Manuel Paleologos II and a Persian scholar on the truths of Christianity and Islam.

"The emperor comes to speak about the issue of jihad, holy war," the pope said. "He said, I quote, 'Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached'." . . Full story: sfgate.com

Comment: The long-planned World War III between innocent Islam and the political Zionists is intended to bring both parties under submission and allow Rothschild's Vatican to attain world hegemony.

Recherché du Trillions Perdu

July 20, 2006– Recherché du trillions perdu (Remembrance of trillions lost) was triggered by seeing that tidbit Donald Rumsfeld gave us on September 10, 2001: that the Pentagon could not account for $2.3 trillion dollars. It had vanished in the rabbit hole and the story was buried the next day under the rubble of 9/11. Merde. . .

Rummy lamented that was $8,000 for every man, woman and child in America. One Jim Minnery, a former marine turned whistle-blower, risked his job at the Defense Finance and Accounting Service when he asked about the millions missing from one defense agency's balance sheets. Minnery attempted to follow the money, criss-crossing the country looking for clues, only to have his boss look at him and say, "Why do you care about this stuff." He was reassigned and the booboo written off.

And the memory flashes forward to January 31, 2005, and the Pentagon announces that Rabbi Dov Zakheim, the Pentagon Comptroller, has misplaced a Trillion Dollars . . . Full story: onlinejournal.com

Following Zakheim and Pentagon trillions to Israel and 9-11

The two sums disappeared on Zakheim's watch. ($1 trillion dollars, and nearly three years earlier, $2.3 trillion was also missing from the Pentagon books– Ed).

Yet on May 6, 2004, Zakheim took a lucrative position at Booz Allen Hamilton, one of the most prestigious strategy consulting firms in the world. One of its clients then was Blessed Relief, a charity said to be a front for Osama bin Laden. Booz, Allen & Hamilton then also worked closely with DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which is the research arm of the Department of Defense. So the dark card was shifted to another part of the deck . . .

Israel backed by Army of Cyber-Soldiers

Jerusalem, July 28, 2006– While Israel fights Hezbollah with tanks and aircraft, its supporters are campaigning on the internet.

Israel's Government has thrown its weight behind efforts by supporters to counter what it believes to be negative bias and a tide of pro-Arab propaganda. The Foreign Ministry has ordered trainee diplomats to track websites and chatrooms so that networks of US and European groups with hundreds of thousands of Jewish activists can place supportive messages.

In the past week nearly 5,000 members of the World Union of Jewish Students (WUJS) have downloaded special "megaphone" software that alerts them to anti-Israeli chatrooms or internet polls to enable them to post contrary viewpoints. A student team in Jerusalem combs the web in a host of different languages to flag the sites so that those who have signed up can influence an opinion survey or the course of a debate.

Comment: As the lies of the City of London's Bush and Blair Administrations are now being exposed in the Establishment media, the City appears keen to terminate their services and distance itself from "a job well done," forcing them to hasten the coup by igniting the "hot" stage of World War III before they are arraigned by the Hague War Crimes Tribunal or before the plotters lose control of the world situation. World War III was planned to emasculate the power of the political Zionists and Islam, making way for Rome to impersonate Bible prophecy and deliver world hegemony to the Illuminati.

The Day that Changed Everything wasn't 9/11

"Through four decades of the Cold War, Americans had been able to feel reasonably united in their determination to fight evil. And everyone, even children, knew the name of the evildoers: 'the commies,'" writes Ira Chernus. "Within two years after the Wall fell, the Soviet Union had simply disappeared. In the US, nobody really knew how to fight evil now, or even who the evildoers were. The world's sole remaining superpower was 'running out of demons,' as Colin Powell complained."

Comment: "In the last days Joel told us that there would be a former and latter rain in the same season. . . There's been a national teaching rain, communism sowed amongst the people, every nation. There's been a Roman revival. Do you know what happens? If they give the eastern part of Berlin back, that puts the Roman Empire just exactly in the old circle it was in the time of Jesus. Certainly it does, perfectly" (William Branham, End-Time Seed Sign #62-0319).

Guilty, Your Honour, of Truth in the First Degree

II Timothy 3:1; 4:2-5, "Understand this, that at the very end of the Messianic age of redemption and completion, perilous times will come upon those who are Christians. . . Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 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; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and be turned unto fables. But you watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of your ministry".

This prophetic Message directed the ministry of William Branham who "did the work of an evangelist" in the final thirty years of the Laodicean Church Age, then for the first three years of this holy convocation which was typed by the fiftieth day of Israel's Feast of Weeks, he fulfilled the prophetic office of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7.

Perilous times have been upon the Church since the revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963, which was the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6—the "shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16 and Revelation 18:1-4—awakening and calling the sleeping virgin out from Rome and her once Protestant daughter churches, arousing thereby the "enmity" of the spiritual Serpent's seed against the children of the last Adam. Conditions will become increasingly dire for the Bride and foolish virgin once Satan and his demons are cast down to earth, leading to the martyrdom of the foolish virgin and all other classes of the "saved".

We did not revile again but consistently "turned the other cheek" as the Church was defamed in the national media by a continuum of lies over twelve years. This only emboldened our persecutors who for the past two years hauled us before magistrates transparently ignorant of basic historic, encyclopedic and dictionary facts of contemporary truth or Biblical definitions. Like the Edomite Jews who tried our Lord, their objective is to obtain convictions under racialist laws of their own device wherein truth is no defence. Unlike Pontius Pilate the judge has not inquired, "What is truth?" (John 18:38).

Sanctify your life Brother Seed, pay off any lingering debts and keep the Token on display. Let the persecution of our little Church be a sign of the time for the "squeeze" also has you marked because, "all who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" (II Timothy 3:12). The world is uniting for the second crucifixion of the Word, and of course the Word and the Bride are one (John 17:21-26). Following the earthquake true believers will become a hunted and persecuted little group because the denominations are uniting under Rome. Christ will take His Bride Home, but over the following seven years the foolish virgin and other classes of the "saved" will be martyred.

When persecution comes to you, and it will, there will be no one on whom you can rely but the Lord Jesus Christ because the world neither understands nor cares for truth; and justice does not exist in our apostate (once) Christian nations. You need only note how our Muslim citizens are likewise humiliated and vilified for political ends. We are all victims of the City of London whose forebears conquered England under cover of William of Orange whom they financed and desire to conquer the world under cover of 9/11 which they executed.

Our Judge believes the church is a building, or at least an organization of material substance manifest in part by bricks and mortar. He cannot conceive how a church could meet in a private dwelling as tens of thousands of churches do, and has not read Romans 16:5, I Corinthians 16:19 and Philemon 1:2.

The Christian Church is not, nor was it at any time a building or an "organization" but an "organism:" the living Body-Word of Jesus Messiah. Organized religion is ruled by man, it cannot be led of the Spirit and consequently it is not of God. God is in His Word, and by faith His Word can live in you. John 14:17, "Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it neither perceives nor understands Him: but you know Him; for He lives with you, and (from the Day of Pentecost) He shall be in you".

The Bible is the story of God unfolding Himself or changing His form from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts to the manifestation of those thoughts in the flesh of His glorified Family, and in the new heavens and new earth the "saved" will worship God throughout eternity in the form of Jesus Messiah and His Bride: together we are the Logos made manifest.

God does not live in bricks and mortar, He live in His saints whose lives are written epistles of the present truth.

The Holy Ghost is the living, personal, divine unity of complete revelation and, as such, the Spirit of truth (John 15:26; 16:13). He is the Spirit of truth, inasmuch as He makes objective truth subjective in His Bride, according to our knowledge of truth. Truth must be subjective in order for the "third pull" to manifest. Objectively He is the Spirit of God (Romans 8:14), and God Himself (Acts 5); the Spirit of the Father (Matthew 10:20); the Spirit of Christ (Romans 8:9); the Spirit of the Lord (II Corinthians 2:17,) the Holy Spirit (Acts 2).

Subjectively He is the Spirit of truth, the Spirit of wisdom and revelation (Ephesians 1:17), the Spirit of power, of love and of a sound mind (II Timothy 1:7), the Spirit of adoption, of prayer (Romans 8:15), the Spirit of sanctification (Romans 1:4), of life (Romans 8:10), of meekness (I Corinthians 4:21), of comfort (Acts 9:31), of glory (I Peter 4:14), of sealing, of the earnest of eternal Life (Ephesians 1:13-14), of all Christian gifts (I Corinthians 12:4). As the Spirit of truth, the Holy Ghost applies to believers the full truth of the perfect revelation of God in Christ. There is no trinity.

"Whom the world cannot receive" because it does not see His manifestations, since it lacks the eye of faith to perceive. It does not even see the One God above the world, much less the oneness of His manifestations in the world. And hence "it does not know Him" experientially (I Corinthians 2:14). "But you know him." Inasmuch as the disciples had commenced to recognize the Holy Spirit in the manifestation of Messiah (Matthew 16:17) the imminent future of Pentecost was already present. They were already beginning to have an experiential knowledge of Him although the full expression awaits the Day of Pentecost. "He remains with you, and will be in you." He will maintain His present uninterrupted activity among you until He comes to be fully revealed in you.

Matthew 18:20, "Where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there am I in the midst of them". This is the Church. The true Church is the elect of God, and very few in number. When God separated Israel from Egypt He called them His church, as we shall see. They numbered about three million, but because of sin (i.e. unbelief in His Word) He placed the nation under the curse of the Law and of the adults, only Joshua and Caleb, entered the Promised Land. Of eighty-two apostles Jesus sent out, seventy were carnal and another betrayed Him, leaving eleven. Paul's mighty Church of Ephesus numbered only twelve souls.

In the days of Noah, God translated one man from a world of six billion people, and saved eight through water. Jesus said Enoch typed Christ's true Church in the end-time, a tiny number who will be translated. Noah's family type the foolish virgin who will enter the tribulation. God is only looking for those who are at one with His Word (John 17:21-26).

Since the revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963, Christ has been calling the wise and foolish virgin out from denominational religion which is apostate. He is only seeking the wise virgin. Matthew 7:14, "strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads unto Life, and few there be that find it".

Our English word "Church" is a translation of the Greek 'ekklesia' which is a compound of 'ek' or 'ex,' a primary preposition denoting origin (the point whence action or motion proceeds), from, out (of place, time, or cause; literal or figurative) and a derivative of 'kaleo,' to be commanded or called by name. Hence, the true Church is "the called out ones," or the elect of God who have heard their name called from the Lamb's Book of Life and come out of the world and the things of the world into Christ.

The Critical and Expository Bible Encyclopaedia states: "Ecclesia" in the New Testament never means the building or house of assembly, for church buildings were long after the apostolic age. It means an organized body whose unity does not depend on its being met together in one place; not an assemblage of atoms, but members in their several places united to the One Head, Christ, and forming one organic living whole (I Corinthians 12). The Bride of Christ, the body of which He is the Head (Ephesians 5:25-32; 1:22). The household of Christ and of God (Matthew 10:25; Ephesians 2:19). The temple of the Holy Ghost, made up of living stones (Ephesians 2:22; I Corinthians 3:16; I Peter 2:5).

Church is used of one or more particular Christian associations, even one small enough to worship together in one house (Romans 16:5). Also of "the whole church" (Romans 16:23; I Corinthians 12:28). Church occurs only twice in Matthew (16:18; 18:17), elsewhere called "the kingdom of heaven" by Matthew, "the kingdom of God" by Mark, Luke and John. Also called Christ's "flock," never to be plucked out of His hand (John 10:28), "branches" in Him "the true vine." Grounded on the Rock, "the Christ the Son of the living God," the only Foundation (Matthew 16:16, 18; I Corinthians 3:11). Constituted as Christ's mystical body on Pentecost; thenceforth expanding in the successive stages traced in Acts . . .

The true catholic church is restricted to "them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours" (I Corinthians 1:2) . . .

The temple then not being the model to the Christian Church, the synagogue alone remained to be copied. In the absence of the temple during the Captivity the people assembled together on sabbaths and other days to be instructed by the prophet (Ezekiel 14:1; 20:1; 33:31). In Nehemiah 8:1-8 a specimen is given of such a service . . . in the New Testament synagogue (Gr.) is used of the Christian assembly only by the most Judaic apostle (James 2:2). The Jews' malice against Christianity caused Christians to leave the term "synagogue" to the Jews (Revelation 2:9) . . .

The government of the church evidently came from the synagogue not from the Aaronic priesthood. So also did the worship; with the addition of the new doctrines, the gifts of the Spirit, and the supper of the Lord . . ."

According to the Webster Universal Dictionary, "Church is the whole body of Christians throughout the world." The Shorter Oxford English Dictionary defines Church as, "The Christian community collectively".

Acts 7:34-53, "The Lord said to Moses, I have seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send you into Egypt. This Moses whom they refused, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge?' God sent to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush. He brought them out, after he had shown wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years. This is the same Moses who told the Israelites, 'the Lord your God will raise up from your brethren a prophet like me; Him shall you hear. This is the one who was in the church in the wilderness (not a building or tent but a people separated unto the Lord) with the Angel who spoke to him in the Mount Sinai, and with our fathers: he received the living Word to give to us. To him our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt, saying to Aaron, 'Make us gods that will go before us: for this Moses who led us out of Egypt, we know not what has befallen him.' They made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands."

"Then God turned, and abandoned them to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets (Amos 5:25; Romans 1:21-32), O house of Israel, have you offered Me slain beasts and sacrifices for forty years in the wilderness? You carried Moloch's tent and your god Rephan's star-idol, the figures which you made to worship. So I shall deport you beyond Babylon."

"In the wilderness our fathers had the tent of witness, as He who spoke to Moses had commanded him to make it according to the pattern he had seen. And our fathers received it and brought it in with Joshua into the territory of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before our fathers. This tent remained until the time of David, Who found favour before God and prayed that he might provide a permanent dwelling for the God of Jacob. But Solomon built Him a house. However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands; as said the prophet (Isaiah 66:1-2): 'Heaven is My throne, and earth is My footstool: what sort of house will you build Me? says the Lord: or what is My resting place? Has not My hand made all these things'?"

Isaiah contrasts the general conception of a human work with that of the Creator Himself, and classes the Jewish delusion respecting the temple with the superstition that is connected with idols. For if the whole creation is the dwelling-place of God, the temple cannot be regarded as His exclusive dwelling place to which His Presence and the manifestation of Himself are restricted. Neither can a building be the Church and dwelling place of God in this day.

Before they stoned him to death, Stephen rebuked the Jews as carnal sons of Cain: hypocrites, whose fathers persecuted and murdered all of God's prophets from Abel to Zechariah as Jesus accused them in Matthew 23:33-36, Revelation 18:24 and 19:13, Isaiah in chapter 63:1-6, Malachi in chapter 1:1-4, and so-on.

As Israel became God's Church after Moses called them out of Egypt, the Christian Church today is "the called out ones." When you recognize your day and it's Message, you have heard the Voice of God calling your name from the Lamb's Book of Life. You did not hear your literal name; you heard your part of God's Word. John 4:18, "He who receives the revelation is born-again;, he who believes not is condemned already, because He has not believed in the manifestation of the only begotten Son of God in His Church." The Name is in the Word because He is the Word, so the Word interpreted is the manifestation of the Name of God. "Flesh and blood has not shown you who I am, but My Father who is in heaven has revealed this to you. And upon this rock of Spiritual revelation of the Word I will build My temple; My Church, My place of worship, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against the faith" (Matthew 16:13-18).

O living Church of God, stand firm on the foundation of Jesus Christ alone (I Corinthians 3:11-13). Jesus said, "He who overcomes the world and the things of the world I will make a pillar in the temple (or Church) of My God, (a pillar is a part of the foundation, which is Christ– John 17:21-26) and he will leave it nevermore: and I will write on him the Name of My God, (signifying he is His possession), and the Name of the city (or dwelling place) of My God, which is new Jerusalem, that is coming down out of heaven from My God: and I will write upon him My new Name (as a "purchased possession"– Ephesians 1:14). Whosoever has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the Church Spiritual and to the church carnal" (Revelation 3:12-13).

New Jerusalem is the dwelling place of God, not bricks and mortar but the glorified Household of God that descends to the renewed heavens and renewed earth (Revelation 21). The City is God manifest in Jesus Christ and His Bride, the King and Queen of New Jerusalem attended by the 144,000 elect Israelites who are our personal servants and our defence signified by the city walls, with the Old Testament saints from Adam to Calvary.

When Moses dedicated the tabernacle in the wilderness, God signified His residence by the Shekinah (Exodus 40:34-35). When Solomon dedicated the temple, God once again signified His residence by manifesting the Shekinah (I Kings 8:10-11). On Jordan's shore, God opened the heavens (or revealed a vision) in which John saw the Shekinah in the form of a dove descending upon His final Temple, Jesus, our Head (Matthew 3:13-17; John 2:19-21). Some years later, on the day of Pentecost, God took His rest in the Church or Body of Christ, and the Shekinah appeared divided as tongues of Fire upon those in the upper room (Acts 2:1-4; Malachi 3:12; Hebrews 13:8).

In the new heavens and new earth there will be no temple structure. Revelation 21:22-27; "For the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb is its Temple. New Jerusalem has no need of the Sun or Moon to shine in it for the Shekinah of God and the Lamb illuminate it. The nations of the saved shall walk in its Light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it. Its gates will never close but remain open throughout the endless day, for in the City there will be no night! And the glory and honour of the nations shall be brought into it. But nothing unclean shall enter into it, nor anyone who practices immorality or falsehood, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life" (Revelation 22:14-15).

We are God's true dwelling place, His holy tabernacle or temple not made with hands, but a many-membered body begotten of the spoken Word (I Corinthians 6:19-20; 11:1-16; Colossians 1:24).

Most of you will be unaware that for the past twelve years we have been defamed in the national media by the Executive Counsel of Australian Jewry and associates prosecuting the policy of the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, accusing us of being anti-Semites who impersonate the Israelite race, claiming we are a Christian Identity/British Israel church. The truth is we repudiate that unscriptural Jewish hoax devised by John Dee, the Cabbalistic astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I.

The Judge presumed to ask me if I could name one (1) file on the Church Website that is not anti-Semitic. I responded, "Christians are PRO-Semitic, PRO-Hamitic, and PRO-Japhetic," and in our last hearing informed him that the only anti-Semitic material on our Church Website is the Jew's lewd holy book, the Babylonian Talmud, and rabbinical works. It is non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews who impersonate the blood descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. This is clearly established in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, by Josephus, H. H. Graetz, Professor A. N. Poliak of Tel Aviv University, Professor Dunlop of Columbia University, Soviet archaeologist M. I. Artamonov, Arthur Koestler, Noam Chomsky, numerous other Jewish authorities such as the late Steven S. Wise, Chief Rabbi of the United States, by every Jewish and all Gentile encyclopaedia, and is consistent with the Message of William Branham, the Prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7. Also note that Judaism is Pharisaism based upon the Talmud, the antithesis of pre-exilic Yahweh Torah, the Mosaic Law and the Prophets (Matthew 15:1-9). See:

The Jewish Religion: It's Influence Today

Brother Branham taught us we must study the tactics of the Adversary in order that we might "be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might, clad in the full armour of God, that we may be able to withstand against the wiles of the enemy. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places". The above files are scriptural and historic truths—apostolic faith to which the Message of the Prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 was sent to return your hearts.

According to their own religious and secular authorities it is Jews who are the non-Semitic impersonators of the people and faith of the sons of Israel. The untruthful, offensive articles and broadcasts of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, contrary to Scripture were frequently associated with White Supremacist, Nazi and Ku Klux Klan polemics. That is between themselves and the Lord God who placed every man on the basis of free moral agency. We do not interfere with their politics or their religion: we address these matters because of confusion that has been sown within Christendom.

Brother Branham said if one cannot receive the revelation of the true oneness of the godhead, scriptural water baptism and the original sin, you know the election is off. Just walk away from them (Titus 3:9-11). He revealed the "original sin" in order that we might recognize the physical and spiritual Serpent's seed, and discern the true Spiritual and physical sons of Israel from "those who say they are Jews and are not but are liars" (Revelation 2:9; 3:9).

It is an undeserved honour to be chosen to stand for the truth of God's Word. We have not breached the law; had we so done we should pay the penalty. We are guilty of preaching the truth to Bible believers. Our persecutors have repeatedly transgressed their Talmudic laws in order to trespass onto our Church Website and generate trouble, but "truth is hate only to those who hate the truth." My purpose in writing is to make you aware of this precursor to the "squeeze" in hopes of awakening some of the sleeping virgin within the circle of this Message before they find themselves in the tribulation quoting the "letter" of the Message without the "Spirit".

The Religious Affairs Reporter for the Sydney Morning Herald knew not God's Word but she was primed for our interview by the defamatory press clippings and broadcasts of the president and associates of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry. Her first question was, "Why are you White Supremacists"? I showed her photographs of our work among thousands of coloured saints. "Why does your Church follow the Christian Identity cult"? I explained this theory was a Jewish hoax devised to reopen Britain to Jewish immigration as taught in Newsletter 242, one of three articles subject to complaint by the President of the Jews. The hearing was not reported so the Jewish photographer has not published his photographs.

One would expect a Religious Affairs Reporter or a judge who asks witnesses to swear on the Bible to know that Christians are not racialist and that Messiah died for "whomsoever will" of Adam's fallen race. One would also expect them to know that Judaism regards non-Jews as "animals created in human form to serve the Jew" (Midrasch Talpioth; Yebamoth 98a; Schene luchoth haberith, p. 250 b). Rabbi Simon ben Yohai said: "Even the best of the Gentiles should be killed" (Soferim 15, Rule 10). This passage is not found in the Soncino edition but it is in the original Hebrew of the Babylonian Talmud as quoted by the 1907 Jewish Encyclopedia, published by Funk and Wagnalls and compiled by Isidore Singer, under the entry, "Gentile," (p. 617). This original Talmud passage has been concealed in translation. The Jewish Encyclopedia states that, ". . . in the various versions the reading has been altered, 'The best among the Egyptians' being generally substituted." In the Soncino version: "the best of the heathens" (Soferim 41a-b). The plethora of unscriptural racial hatred in the Jew's religion does not bother Christians, nor does it seem to trouble their conscience, yet because we are a humble people we have been victimized under racial hatred legislation prepared by racial supremacist hyper-ethnocentric Zionists whose residence in this country, like their visitation to a Christian Website, is forbidden by their own law.

Soon the Lord will shut the door on us Gentiles, including over ninety-five percent of Jews who are non-Semitic Gentiles who have been deceived by their self-serving leaders . . . The Prophet said, genuine Israelites among them will not escape to Israel and regeneration by the Message of the Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11 now in the Promised Land.

Brethren, you must have "the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty body-changing, resurrection power" (Ephesians 1:17-18).

The Judge asked, "Why do you publish The International Jew, The World's Foremost Problem"?

Mr. Ford called to his office the most intelligent researchers within his acquaintance and commissioned them to make a thorough study of the International Jew and publish their findings in The Dearborn Independent, at that time the official organ of the Ford Motor Company. No expense was spared, and it is estimated that literally millions of dollars were spent on this project. This book is a truthful record of indisputable contemporary history illustrating the consequences of the original sin prophesied by Moses. And except for the grammar, Mr. Ford's words and sentiments are identical to those expressed by Brother Branham.

We publish The International Jew, The World's Foremost Problem because it illustrates the apostolic faith restored by William Branham (1909-1965), the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6, whose ministry "finished the mystery of God" (Revelation 10:7) in order to call God's people out from the darkness of man-made traditions and denominational deceptions into the unity of the faith (Ephesians 4:13) for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation (Romans 8:19; I Corinthians 15).

The original sin was adultery between Eve and the Serpent, a giant man-like creature before God changed every bone in his body and placed him upon his belly. Eve bore dizygous or "dizygotic twins" derived from two separately fertilized ovum. The Serpent fathered Cain while Adam was the father of Abel. God placed "enmity between the seed of the Serpent and the seed of Adam," and that enmity is present today (Genesis 3:15).

Miscegenation between the descendants of Cain and the progeny of Adam spells genocide to Adam's race, for the offspring of such unions and their future generations are not on the Book of Life, which is the genealogy of Adam, and are therefore not redeemable, for Jesus Messiah is the last Adam, He was not the last Cain who is without a kinsman Redeemer. This explains why Cain's children can never recognize Jesus Christ as their Saviour.

The Judge said, "Jesus Christ was a Jew," and referred me to the genealogy Matthew's Gospel.

I replied Jesus Christ was Hebrew, an Israelite of the Tribe of Judah which few Jews were, even in the days of His flesh. Had Jesus been a Jew He would almost certainly have been disqualified from being Messiah. Jesus was not a Jew.

Because of miscegenation, God allowed the great Flood to destroy all life on earth (Genesis 6:1-4). However the Serpent seed was in the Ark. Genesis chapter 9 explains how Ham committed incest with his father's wife who was not the mother of Noah's sons. Canaan, the offspring of that relationship, continued the race of Cain on this side of the Flood. He and his offspring were also cursed of God who granted their possessions in Canaan to Abraham and his descendants.

Abraham begat Isaac and Isaac begat Esau and Jacob. Esau had no respect to the birthright which he sold to his brother to feed his belly. He then marred his inheritance by marrying a Hittite and a Canaanite woman whose offspring would be in Cain's lineage, and hence "the people against whom the Lord has indignation forever" (Malachi 1:1-4).

Esau swore he would kill Jacob (Genesis 27:39-41). His offspring have been killing the Israelites to this day in accordance with his oath, with the Word of God (Genesis 3:15), and the last Will of Canaan: "Five things did Canaan charge his sons: love one another, love robbery, love lewdness, hate your masters, and do not speak the truth" (Talmud, Peshachim 113b). Jesus Messiah confirms this in Matthew 23:33-36, and Revelation 2:9; 3:9; 18:24 as do the prophets of the Old and New Testaments.

God instructed Moses and the children of Israel to utterly slay every soul of this accursed race found in the Promised Land (Deuteronomy 7:1-4; 20:16-17), but Joshua was deceived and made an agreement with the Hivites (Joshua 9). The books of Maccabees and The Antiquities of the Jews (XIII ix 1; XV vii 9) by Jewish historian Flavius Josephus record how John Hyrcanus forcibly assimilated the Edomites with the Judeans and they became "Jews" in about 125BC. Josephus, who lived just after the time of Christ, wrote, "They [Edom] were hereafter no other than Jews." The Jewish scholar Cecil Roth in his Concise Jewish Encyclopedia (1980) says on page 154, "John Hyrcanus forcibly converted [Edom] to Judaism. From then on they were part of the Jewish people. . ."

In the days of His flesh, Jesus Messiah would not live or openly walk in Judea, "for fear of the Jews." Edom's pagan kinfolk of Khazaria, perhaps a hundred times more numerous than these 'Jews,' adopted Talmudic Judaism overnight in AD740, "so they are not all Israel, who are of Israel" (Romans 9:6). Both Jesus and Daniel prophesied that unto the consummation of all life on earth, Israel will be ruled by strangers unrelated to the patriarchs (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2, 8). Who are these non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews that invaded Palestine after World War II and murdered or displaced the Semitic Hebrew and Arab owners of the land? You're Bible and every Jewish encyclopedia has the answer.

Terrible judgments against Edom are made in most of the prophecies of the Old Testament, for instance Isaiah 34, 63, Jeremiah 49, and the entire book of Obadiah.

Isaiah 63:1-6, "Who is this coming from Edom . . . in garments stained with crimson? It is I who speak in righteousness and am mighty to save."

"Why are your garments red, as if you had trodden the winepress? I have trodden the winepress alone: and of the people there was none to help Me. In My anger I trod them down, trampled them in My wrath. Their blood splattered My garments, and all My clothes are stained. For the day of vengeance is in My heart, and the year of My redeemed has come . . . I will tread down the people in My anger, and bring their blood upon the ground".

Jesus Messiah repeats this prophecy in Revelations 19:11-21. It is His revelation to you and to me, because throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end-time Bride. "(Your name here) saw heaven opened, and beheld a white horse: and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True . . . His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns, and He had a Name written that no man knew but Himself. And He was clothed with vesture dipped in blood, and His Name is called The Word of God . . . and He trod the winepress of God's fierce anger".

II Thessalonians 1:6, "It is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you".

Jesus prophesied that in the days of His second or 'parousia' Coming, the original sin of miscegenation would be replicated on a massive scale "as it was in the days of Noah," before all life on earth is destroyed by fire (Matthew 24:37; 3:12; Malachi 4:1-3). Today, miscegenation between the descendants of Cain and the children of Adam is lauded by apostate political leaders under the euphemism "multiculturalism," but it is accursed of God and genocide as surely as abortion.

Returning to Henry Ford's book, ask yourself who is behind the godless League and United Nations, World Bank, IMF, World Trade Organization, Communism, Zionism, Nazism, Capitalism, the Babylonian fractional reserve banking system, mercantile law and religion that has been thrust upon the world in abrogation of God's Word? It is not Israelites, not the Semitic, Japhetic or Hamitic peoples, but the children of Cain whom God has set at enmity between the offspring of the first and the last Adam, who say, "If the Goyim knew what we teach about them they would kill us openly." That is almost Genesis 4:14 verbatim. The mark of Cain is worldly wisdom against the faith; as above they always work in another name and under a different occupation.

Daniel prophesied that after the revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963, international travel would be commonplace. Some will travel for business or pleasure, others as refugees in Satan's program to divide and conquer the world. "Knowledge shall increase . . . but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are taught shall understand" (Daniel 12:4, 10). "The wise will understand" the fulfilment of Bible prophecy in the record of history preserved in Henry Ford's Book.

"In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world" (John 16:33). eb441.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we especially welcome our new subscribers.

We live in an age in which "men are lovers of their own selves . . . and having turned away their ears from the truth, have been turned to fables. The cover story of the different editions of Newsweek magazine confirms the hypocrisy of the media barons who deceive the mothers of their host nation into sending their sons to die in imperial ventures.

At a retirement banquet in his honour, Managing Editor of the New York Times, John Swinton declared: "If any one of you dared to write the truth he would soon find himself on the street looking for a new job. The major function of a New York journalist is to destroy the truth, to lie openly, to crawl at the feet of Mammon and sell his race and his country for his dally bread. We are the tools and puppets of rich men who stay behind the scenes; we are jumping jacks. They pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our resources, our very lives, belong to other men. We are spiritual prostitutes."

Professor Arthur Butz (head of the Engineering faculty at North-Western University, USA, and author of Hoax of the 20th Century, a devastating exposé, of the Zionist Holocaust fraud, put the position rather more concisely: "The media is exposed as constituting a lie machine of vaster extent than many of the more independently-minded have perceived."

The (once) Christian West lectures the third world, "I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing." But God says: "You know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked" (Revelation 3:17).

A Study in History by British historian Arnold Toynbee, published in twelve volumes from 1934-1961, divided world history into 26 civilizations, and traced their rise, decline, and fall. He concluded that "the one hope for the survival of Western civilization lies in a rebirth of the Christian spirit".

William Branham said, "God bless America, it's a Christian country." It's a million miles from being a Christian country. I don't even pray for it. How can I pray for it, and it won't repent under the mighty powers of God demonstrated before it, and denying, and closing the doors to it, and walking away? I commit it to God. And she's going further away, and now she's going to sink. Just watch what happens" (Trying to do God a Service, p. 23:136).

Iran says US, Israel ordered September 11 Attacks

Teheran, September 6, 2006– The events of September 11 were ordered by US [officials] and Mossad so that they could carry out their strategy of preemption and warmongering and unipolarisation in order to dominate the Middle East, Major General Yahya Rahim Safavi told military commanders on Tuesday. His comments were reported by the state-run news agency ISNA . . .

The US's neo-conservative strategy was to dominate the vast energy resources of the Persian Gulf in order to be able to control Europe, China and India, and drive the world to a unipolar state. Therefore, it planned to change undesirable regimes such as those of Iraq, Sudan, Syria, and Afghanistan. Full story: iranfocus.com

US Government's Usage of Atomic Bombs– Domestic– WTC

September 25, 2006– Declassified August 1958: "Mere fact that the US has developed atomic munitions suitable for use in demolition work." Declassified January 1967, "The fact that we are interested in and are continuing studies on a weapon for minimizing the emerging flux of neutrons and internal induced activity." Declassified March 1976, "The fact of weapon laboratory interest in Minimum Residual Radiation (MRR) devices. The fact of successful development of MRR devices."

The factual evidence indicates that our government is using and has used 3rd or possibly 4th generation hydrogen bombs domestically and internationally. The evidence for international usage is not quite as strong as the domestic usage, but when domestic usage is considered, the international usage seems inescapable. The process of exclusion based on the known facts leaves only one viable option for the destruction of the World Trade Center (WTC) buildings—a relatively pure hydrogen bomb. . .

Egypt to begin Nuclear Programme

September 25, 2006– Egypt has said it will re-launch its nuclear energy programme after a 20-year freeze as it announced plans to build a nuclear power station on the Mediterranean coast.

The government's supreme council for energy met on Sunday for the first time in 18 years to discuss alternative energy options. . . Full story: aljazeera.net

Comment: The 'Global 2000 Report to the President' and 'Global Future: A Time to Act' are to be correctly understood as political statements of intent—intent on the part of such policy centers as the Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, and International Monetary Fund, to pursue policies that will produce depopulation by restricting scientific and technological development, technology transfer to the developing countries and food production. The restraint of nuclear energy generation has waylaid industrial development, employment prospects, prosperity and improved living standards in underdeveloped nations in the third world and maintained their political and economic dependence upon the City of London.

US Threatened to Bomb Pakistan

Washington, September 22, 2006– Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said the US threatened to bomb his country back to the Stone Age if he did not assist the administration's war on terrorism. The threat was delivered after the attacks of September 11, 2001, by then deputy secretary of State Richard L. Armitage to Musharraf's intelligence director, the Pakistani leader told CBS' "60 Minutes" for Sunday's broadcast. Musharraf said the intelligence chief quoted Armitage as saying, "Be prepared to be bombed. Be prepared to go back to the Stone Age." It was insulting, Musharraf said. "I think it was a very rude remark."

. . . Armitage said he delivered a tough message to Pakistan, saying the Muslim nation was either "with us or against us," CNN reported. But he said he didn't know how his message had been recounted so differently to Musharraf. Full story: truthout.org

An All-Out Assault on Your Privacy

The federal government has quietly begun using an incredibly intrusive new census form called "The American Community Survey." Up to 1 million households a year will receive this form. This new "census" form is 24-pages long, and demands that you lay bare every detail of your life, including how much you earn, what your home is worth, details of your health, when you leave for work, previous addresses, pregnancies, monies received from government, and on and on.

I say demand because you can be fined up to $1,000 for each of the 72 questions you don't answer or which you answer "incorrectly." However, so far no one has been fined for not answering, nor are they likely to be if public resistance is strong. The ways the government could use this information to harm you are mind-boggling. For instance, any financial discrepancy with IRS or Social Security records could result in your criminal prosecution. Knowing when you leave for work could enable police, acting under the Patriot Act, to secretly enter your home.

The American Community Survey also demands that you to report on the activities of relatives, employers and roommates. Joseph Stalin could hardly ask for more surveillance powers. You can download the survey at census.gov Full story: free-market.net

Google developing Eavesdropping Software

September 3, 2006– Google says that its fingerprinting technology makes it impossible for the company (or anyone else) to eavesdrop on other sounds in the room, such as personal conversations, because the conversion to a fingerprint is made on the PC, and a fingerprint can't be reversed, as it's only an identity. But we should think that "spyware" might take on an extra meaning if someone less scrupulous decided on a similar piece of software.

The Google program converts sound into graphs, weeds out background noise, and reduces the graphs to key features that can then be translated into just four bytes of information, so that the fingerprints for an entire year of television programming would add up to no more than a few gigabytes . . . Google said it has signed a multi-year agreement with online auction giant eBay, to provide text-based advertising outside the US. Full story: theregister.co.uk

Digital cable TV boxes, such as Scientific Atlantic, have had secret in-built microphones inside them since their inception in the late 1990's and these originally dormant devices were planned to be activated when the invasive advertising revolution arrived—2006 marks that date.

Georgia House of Representatives– 1995/1996 Sessions

HB 1274– Death penalty; guillotine provisions:

To amend Article 2 of Chapter 10 of Title 17 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to the death penalty generally, so as to provide a statement of legislative policy; to provide for death by guillotine; to provide for applicability; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

The General Assembly finds that while prisoners condemned to death may wish to donate one or more of their organs for transplant, any such desire is thwarted by the fact that electrocution makes all such organs unsuitable for transplant. The intent of the General Assembly in enacting this legislation is to provide for a method of execution which is compatible with the donation of organs by a condemned prisoner . . .

All persons who have been convicted of a capital offense and have had imposed upon them a sentence of death shall, at the election of the condemned, suffer such punishment either by electrocution or by guillotine. If the condemned fails to make an election by the thirtieth day preceding the date scheduled for execution, punishment shall be by electrocution.

Exposing a Black Nobility Modus Operandum

August 19, 2006– This is an interesting article; however were not both the Jesuits and the Roman Catholic church instituted by apostate Jews? Judaism and Roman Catholicism are both children of Babylon (Revelation 17-18)?

Under the section "trinity in Unity," in his book, The Two Babylons or Papal Worship proved to be the Worship of Nimrod and His Wife, (page 12) Alexander Hislop wrote, "We have only to bring the ancient Babylonian Mysteries to bear on the whole system of Rome, and then it will be seen how immensely the one has borrowed from the other. . . All who have paid the least attention to the literature of Greece, Egypt, Phoenicia, or Rome are aware of the place which the "Mysteries" occupied in these countries, and that, whatever circumstantial diversities there might be, in all essential respects these "Mysteries" in the different countries were the same. . . From Zonaras we find that the concurrent testimony of the ancient authors he had consulted was to this effect; for, speaking of arithmetic and astronomy, he says: "It is said that these came from the Chaldees to the Egyptians, and thence to the Greeks." If the Egyptians and Greeks derived their arithmetic and astronomy from Chaldea, seeing these in Chaldea were sacred sciences, and monopolised by the priests, that is sufficient evidence that they must have derived their religion from the same quarter. . ."

Isaiah informs us it was worship of the Babylonian trinity that caused the Lord to destroy the Northern Kingdom of Israel and disperse those people unto this day. Hosea and Jeremiah foretold God would bring the captivity of Judah for the same reason.

Rome was chiefly the enemy of the descendants of Israel, not of the Jews. It was the Jesuits who first experimented with Communism; Judaeo-Communism will destroy Rome once she has accomplished her purpose. Full story: youtube.com

Things That Are to Be

Some of Brother Branham's thoughts interspersed with Scripture have been obscure to many of us, but since he was a vindicated prophet we laid them to one side trusting that in His good time the Lord will reveal their mystery to us. Consider this medley of quotes:

"The Bible said there'd be great things like that happen in the skies, such as they call flying saucers and sputniks, and how that the sea would be roar in great tidal waves, never before in the history of time is now happening. Men's heart failing, heart trouble. . . Lord. You said, "Men," not women."

"Perplex of times, distress between nations, how that the tremendous day would be, how the carriages would rage in the broad ways and shine like torches the big headlights in the broad ways. How that men would be heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more than of God, false accusers, incontinent, and despisers of those that are good, having a form of godliness and denying the power thereof; from such, turn away . . ."

"Russia's so far ahead of us in science . . . And as that news commentator said the other night, it's not Russia doing that, neither is it our scientist; it's the Germans is what's done it. In the war we took some and they took some."

"What would happen if they'd send those sputniks up with those missiles, and say, "Surrender, or become a pile of dust in five minutes"? Of course, our government, to save life, would surrender. That's the only thing they could do. . ."

And in 1977 America did surrender.

Following the Battle of the Harvest Moon the crew of Cosmos 954 bombarded the American Moon Base in Copernicus Crater with neutron radiation, killing the British, Canadian and American astronauts. Immediately on the evening of September 27, 1977, Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko delivered an ultimatum to the White House. The United States surrendered to Russia via the SALT II Treaty. Because of Russia's invasion of Afghanistan it was never ratified by the United States Senate, but its terms were nonetheless honored by both sides.

The following month six more Russian Cosmos Interceptors were orbited, shooting down America's Spy Satellites in an epidemic of fireballs in the sky, especially over Russia, and on October 18, 1977 they shot down America's 85-ton SKYLAB Space Station over the United States, creating a mammoth fireball that was witnessed over Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and Missouri. Nine days later NASA began the cover-up about Skylab. Meanwhile the Soviet Union was on full military alert and the United States was surrounded by almost the entire Russian submarine fleet in attack positions.

Now you know why to this day the US military does nothing when Russian submarines are reported in US coastal waters.

Cloud of Macts 1:9-11Do you recall Dr. James MacDonald, Senior Physicist with the Institute of Atmospheric Studies at the University of Arizona? He published numerous papers on the Cloud prophesied in Matthew 24:3, Acts 1:9-11 and Revelation 1:7 that manifest "the sign of Christ's ['parousia'] Coming, and of the [imminent] end of the seven Church Ages" on February 28, 1963. Dr. MacDonald also investigated flying saucer sightings and found the government was concealing information. His reports and investigations to scientific associations leave no doubt as to scientific reality of what we call UFOs.

Way back in 1972 Colonel Raymond Sleeper, US Air Force (ret.), wrote an article for the American Security Council entitled "USSR-First in Space Power." It was published on March 6, 1972 in their WASHINGTON REPORT No. WR-72-4. In his article, Colonel Sleeper describes how Russia's space bomb satellite had already demonstrated its ability to blow up an enemy satellite in space—a concept superseded by the operational fleet of Cosmos Particle Beam Interceptors. He also describes other facets of the widening lead in Soviet military use of space, and says: "They already have the capability to launch a major military space force to bludgeon the United States to accommodation on a particular request or demand." Illustrating how it could work, he begins with the words: "Assume for the sake of an example that the impasse continues in the negotiations between the United States and the USSR for the limitation of strategic weapons (that is, SALT) and that the Soviet-sponsored European Security Conference is convened to reduce 'tensions' on the continent." Pointing out the vulnerable status of Europe relative to the Warsaw Pact forces, he continues: "The USSR launches several orbital satellites. It tells the world they are orbital bombers. United States space detection systems verify the satellites' presence. The Soviets assert that the satellites are able to destroy any target in Europe or the United States, but that their real purpose is to insure a peaceful Europe." With the West confronted with a dilemma over these satellites, Colonel Sleeper continues: "Then to climax their ploy, the Soviets detonate a nuclear explosion over the eastern Atlantic Ocean 50 or 100 miles out in space. All of Europe would be suitably impressed, and would accept what, in view of this demonstration of Soviet military power, now seem very reasonable proposals for 'peaceful coexistence' between the nations of eastern and western Europe. The United States, powerless, would be excluded."

Brother Branham warned of this nineteen years beforehand in his 1958 sermon, "Handwriting on the Wall." Now almost fifty years later we are still unable to match Soviet military technology employed to give them victory in the Battle of the Harvest Moon. The mingled population of once homogenous Western Christian nations is a Frankenstein powderkeg created to explode when the 'hidden hand' is ready; blind to our military impotence, our Spiritual, economic and moral bankruptcy. Once Christian civilizations have yielded diligence to sensual lusts, surrendering administrative stewardship to aliens who promptly squandered their good by deceiving and insulting our erstwhile friends. They persuaded us to commit genocide by miscegenation and expatriate our productive economy as Esau sold his birthright and destroyed his heritage. We are living on past reputation, but as I learned in Management School, one can delegate responsibility, but one cannot delegate accountability, and God will hold us accountable "as it was in the days of Noah".

This fifth column leading our political marionettes formed the unnecessary, superfluous Department of Homeland Security in the States and facsimiles in other colonies of "the City" to track countless points of vulnerability. Trains and trucks, buses and subways, chemical plants and factories, airports and ports, skyscrapers and bridges, tunnels and dams—like the war on the abstract noun "terrorism" the list of potential targets is endless. But the list of potential terrorists is infinitesimally small and there hasn't been a single advanced terrorist plot uncovered in the United States since 9/11, and none dare call it treason. . . According to several top counterterrorism officials, the number of serious terrorist plots against the United States in the past five years is zero.

Like the faithless Israelites who rejected Abraham's promise at Kadesh, declaring giants greater than the Word of God, our apostate once Christian nations fear unseen giants behind the war on an abstract noun, and forsaking Christ for fables, tremble before the lying propaganda of the best politicians money can buy. Brother Branham used to preach, "the world is going insane." The world has gone insane. Like Don Quixote it is fighting the windmills of delusion.

In December 1966, Dr. Bryan Monahan wrote: It is a remarkable fact of our time that there has come into existence what might be called "the profession of Sovietology." This is a pseudo-science staffed by practitioners, some of them professors, who make their living by 'interpreting' Soviet Russian (and Communist Chinese) intentions. They quote each other and agree or disagree, and even by this have built up a massive 'literature.' But in the main their raw material is the slogans carefully devised in the Kremlin and elsewhere to keep our eyes off the ball.

(The "elsewhere" is not only London and New York but particular circles in every nation under heaven for Communism is the spirit of Laodicea that has conquered the whole world and whose objective is to replace the Spiritual with the material and humanistic; faith with "scientific" reasoning. We say: "I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing." But Jesus said: "You know not that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked" (Revelation 3:17). We have been put to sleep, communised and defeated by Khrushchev's "peace offensive," and know it not).

Thirty-six years have passed since Dimitri Manuilsky, a one-time Russian delegate to the UN, spoke of "launching the most spectacular peace movement on record". The object of this was to be to "put the bourgeoisie to sleep," so that the final take-over of the entire world by the Communists would succeed through the element of surprise.

This "peace offensive" was launched by Khrushchev in 1956, but passed largely unnoticed because of the dramatic diversion provided by de-Stalinisation. The vital importance of Khrushchev's speech at the Twentieth Party Congress was that it inaugurated the strategy of "peaceful co-existence" as the means of achieving world-wide Communist dictatorship—an objective which clearly could not be gained by a conventional military confrontation.

Peaceful coexistence has given the Sovietologists endless material for speculation. But it also led to doubts among rank and file Party members as to the Kremlin's ultimate intentions, and in consequence there has been a great deal of Party literature explaining that peaceful coexistence is simply the final strategy of conquest, the outcome of which will be the triumph of communism throughout the entire world."

(God has allowed Communism to rise up in judgment against the apostate church as He allowed Nebuchadnezzar to rise up and judge apostate Judah).

The American Bar Association commissioned Richard V. Allen to make a comprehensive study of official Communist Party pronouncements on and explanations to Communists of the true strategic significance of peaceful coexistence. The cumulative research by Mr. Allen and his assistants involved the analysis of more than three thousand articles, books and other documents of Communist origin.

The result is a book, Peace or Peaceful Coexistence? which ought to be compulsory reading for all those engaged in the formulation of national policy. It contains one hundred and seventy-five quotations from Communist sources, and these put entirely outside the realm of speculation what Communist intentions are. The Communists mean business, and their business is to subjugate the population of the entire world to perpetual world government by a self-selected and self-perpetuating elite.

In the light of these revelations, any co-operation with Communist Russia or Communist China or their satellites amounts to criminal negligence of the interests of non-Communist nations. Trade with the Communists is betrayal; and that is why Mr. Allen's book should be compulsory reading, so that it could not be said: "Lord forgive them; they know not what they do" (Bryan Monahan, The Moving Storm, p. 43-44).

The "self-selected and self-perpetuating elite" are the international banksters who also control the capitalist West. They took over Russia in 1917 and through tax-exempt foundations the taxes of ordinary Christian men and women helped fund and build-up Communism. Following Stalin's death, Russian loyalists regained power from the Khazar Bolsheviks who emigrated to the West where the banksters elevated them to positions of power and influence. Hence our productive economy is now in the hands of foreigners: we have exchanged our hard assets for fiat money as Esau sold his birthright for soup. I Timothy 6:9-10, "Those who are eager to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful cravings that plunge men into destruction and ruin. For the love of money is the root of all evils. In striving for it, some have wandered away from the faith, and pierced themselves with many sorrows."

Money is an inconsequential factor in the Millennium end-game to the powers-that-be who hold the world in bondage by unrepayable debt. Worthless fiat currencies are a useful but dispensable tool, nothing more. Their Central Bankers can print as much as they require: this inflation seamlessly transfers your wealth into their pocket. They will be the piper foreclosing and demanding his pound of flesh when currencies and economies fail. Then the physical wealth of nations and individuals will be theirs.

Let us consider Joel 2:28-32, which from the Hebrew perspective speaks of the restoration of the Kingdom of God or Church to Israel by the new birth of the 144,000 elect (Acts 1:6). Following the Seventh Trumpet their teaching rain will be delivered from the lips of two Hebrew prophets anointed by the Spirit that endued Moses and Elijah as outlined in verses 15-27 (Newsletter 368). This is the day of the Lord, the time of Jacob's trouble in Daniel's Seventieth Week (Isaiah 2:2; Ezekiel 38:16; Hosea 3:5). "And it shall come to pass afterward"—after Israel's invasion by and deliverance from the northern army for which the nations are now preparing (Ezekiel 38-39), and three and a half years after the Bride has been translated, their two witnesses will be martyred then "all Israel will be saved"—all 144,000 of them (Isaiah 66:8; Romans 11:26).

Having heretofore stated the outward blessings, Joel now raises their minds to the expectation of extraordinary spiritual blessings, which constitute the true restoration of God's people (Isaiah 44:3) already fulfilled in earnest upon Christ's Bride of elect Israelites and Gentiles regenerated over the two thousand years long Pentecostal Feast (Acts 2:17), hereafter poured out under the latter or harvest rain of the fullness of the Word at the restoration of Israel (Isaiah 54:13; Jeremiah 31:9, 34; Ezekiel 39:29; Zechariah 12:10). "I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh—sinner and saint, and every seed will bring forth of its own kind: the wicked will do wickedly and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are taught of the Lord shall understand" (Daniel 12:10).

"God makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good and sends rain on the just and on the unjust" (Matthew 5:45; 13:30; 24:24). "But that which bears thorns and briers is rejected, and close to being cursing; whose end is to be burned" (Hebrews 6:8). And "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Lord will raise up a standard against him" (Isaiah, 59:19-21) as when the earthquake sinks Los Angeles (Revelation 12:15-16; 11:19; 16:18).

"And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy—or declare the revelation of God's Word, a fulfilment of the wish of Moses (Numbers 11:29), which is the ministry of Christ's end-time Bride who is represented by John the Divine throughout the Book of Revelation (Revelation 10:8-14)—your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions"  (Numbers 12:6).

"Even upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit." The new birth knows no social distinction: we all receive equal eternal Life whether bond or free, male or female, black or blue, rich or poor, Israelite or Gentile. By becoming the Lord's servants, slaves are His freemen and every one a king-priest (I Corinthians 7:22; Galatians 3:28; Colossians 3:11; Philemon 1:16; Revelation 1:6). Only as we become the Lord's servants are we spiritually free, and partakers of the same Spirit (Romans 8:11; I Corinthians 12:13). "And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come." These cataclysms of nature are prognostications of political upheavals in the ruling powers of the world as the pope of Rome, incarnate of Lucifer, establishes the totalitarian world government foretold in Daniel 2; Matthew 4:8-9, and Revelation 17. "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord—that is, confess, depend upon and worship Messiah in His divine attributes now being revealed to Israel—these and none else will be completely delivered from the destruction that is to come upon the world—for deliverance will be found only in mount Zion and in Jerusalem (where Messiah first appeared), as the Lord has said, and in the 144,000 remnant [or escaped ones] whom the Lord shall call" from the lands of their dispersal (Isaiah 11:11-12) to the seventh day of the Feast of Tabernacles, which types the Millennium.

Following the Seventh Trump, the Lord will be dealing solely with Israel as a nation; hence His covenant is of no effect outside the borders of the Promised Land.

Brother Branham said, "We're in a dangerous time. Remember, the Scripture says when these things begin to happen, time is no more; she's fading away. When we see the manifestation: earthquakes—see them thousand killed the other day? Earthquakes in divers places; said, fearful sights in the skies—pillars of fire like, floating around like flying saucers. They don't know what it is. See? They don't have any idea."

"Did you notice the Angels that come down and investigated Sodom before Sodom was destroyed? You remember that? There was a bunch of them come down: three of them. One of them stayed with Abraham. You remember that? They were Lights from heaven that came down in the investigating judgment. Look where they're all found. Around the Pentagon and things they find them. That's the world judgment, Sodom. And there's One represented, will be represented amongst the Church—would be Christ Himself a-vindicating Himself. See? Sights in heavens above and signs in the earth below. Certainly. Identified . . ." [in His saints. Joel 2:30; Zechariah 14:4; Matthew 24:29; Acts 2:19; Revelation 6:12; the unrecognized Sign of Christ's parousia to Israel in a time of earthquake, eclipse, volcanoes and tsunamis; the first resurrection and manifestation of the Sons of God and the "mystic lights" of the saints appearing to us for our translation].

"Oh, the Devil's howling about this. The manifested truth of the promise of the Word in Her alone. . . They don't have the answer. When Jesus come, why didn't those Pharisees . . . ? He said, "If I cast out devils by the finger of God, who do you cast them out by?" He stood alone, and His Church stands alone. She's not hooked with nothing. But He was identified by God, being the body that God dwelled in, and the Church is identified by His Body doing the same thing. She is His Body, the manifested Truth of His promised Word for the last days. And She and She alone stands by it. That's why the Devil is howling, these great organizations set up something to close her up. They'll never do it. She'll be taken up, not closed up" (Christ is the Mystery of God Revealed, p. 80:604-611).

"And Father, bless these ministers who are here this morning, Gospel preachers. O God may they go out today with this Message on their hearts and saying, 'I see now the end time, the posted signs, and I know we're at the junction, and that's what all this is about. I wondered why my heart been so stirred for these last few years.' Yes, Lord. Yes, Lord. May they see it. May their eyes be opened, they look around here and say, 'Yes, here it is. I see all these evil things are signs. They're supernatural signs from the enemy. Why, he's doing great wonders. He's doing great things, insomuch as to make fire fall from heaven [the first atomic bombs, Revelation 13:13– Ed]. Yes, they're having satellites all around the earth, and they're natural things, the enemy bringing fire signs and everything else. The false moons and false suns and all the other things" [the Fatima hoax– Ed].

"But God, you said there'd be signs up there, too, that they wouldn't understand. And we're living to see it. I'm so thankful, Lord, so thankful for Christ. And I pray that You will, by Your humble servant, as penitence with tears on my cheeks, God, I give my life to Thee afresh today. And will You help me, dear God, to stay humble and keep around me humble men that will serve you, dear God, and will do the work of God until, Jesus, You let death set me free from this tabernacle of humiliations. And then, Father, I want to be with You" (Junction of Time, #56-0115).

Let us turn now to Dr. Peter Beter: "I gave the locations of seven Russian fission-fusion-fission superbombs that had been planted in deep undersea trenches around the Philippines. As I explained then, the Philippines sit like a keystone in the long arc of geological faults that ring the Pacific—the so-called Ring of Fire. A major earthquake erupting in the Philippines could work its way around the Pacific rim and ultimately devastate America's west coast—and that's exactly what is planned!"

"Since I made that tape, I've also reported the planting of lower-yield undersea weapons around the Pacific and elsewhere by the Soviet Union. Many of these have been detonated, and during the past year strong earthquakes have been very frequent along the Pacific Rim—everywhere except the Philippines. What the Soviet Union has been doing, my friends, is to release tensions in the earth's crust everywhere except around the Philippines, where the stresses are building to tremendous levels. When the time is ripe, according to Russian stress-monitoring instruments in that area, the bombs around the Philippines will be set off. Soviet scientists anticipate that earthquakes and tidal waves of unprecedented proportions will be triggered as a result and that, as one result, America's west coast will be laid waste. For further details of the plan, I suggest you listen again to Audioletter No. 24."

"A few days ago a volcano in the Philippines began erupting, indicating that the stresses in that area are building up; and in the past few days the Russians have triggered strong earthquakes in the 6.5 Richter range in quick succession near Taiwan, Japan, and the Aleutians. My friends, the first major disaster in the secret geophysical war now underway lies just around the corner".

Brother Branham in 1965 ". . . prophesying, "Los Angeles will be in the bottom of the sea." And I come home and went to Africa. And while I was in Africa, they had an earthquake. . . Since that earthquake, there is a two or three-inch crack that come in the earth, starting in Alaska, goes around through the Aleutian Islands, comes out about a hundred and fifty or two hundred miles in the sea, comes back up at San Diego; takes in California, or Los Angeles, and comes out again just below the northern part of California there, a little place called San Jose . . ." (Ashamed, p. 9:52).

A prudent Brother wrote: "You will wonder where Dr. Beter got his information, including information not even our highest intelligence services knew. Most are not ready for the answer to that question, but for those who are ready, the answer is revealed on page 204 of "Missing the Lifeboat?" Phoenix Journal #86, and page 29 of "Ascension or Never-Never Land?" Phoenix Journal #98 (p.24-31 on Cosmospheres and more). I Thessalonians 5:21, "Prove all things, hold fast that which is good".

Brother Branham taught that the Great Flood was caused by man mishandling atomic power. In view of this and having regard to the disclosures in Dr. Beter's Audioletters, it seems the eruption of the Pacific Ring of Fire and the earthquake that sinks Los Angeles will be intentionally precipitated by man: Russia or the United States. "The last and seventh vision was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3).

Joel prophesied, "The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the Lord come." Brother Branham prophesied the end of the Gentile dispensation will be marked by massive earthquakes and an eruption of the Pacific Ring of Fire. "Earthquakes in divers places; the moon is spurting out red blood, or red volcanic all over it, covering it," as Jesus said watch for that sign in the last days; "sea a roaring, men's hearts failing for fear, and perplexed of time, distress between the nations" (The Presence of God Unrecognized, p. 16:113; The Second Coming of the Lord, p. 9:48).

The motto of the Mossad, "By Way of Deception Thou shalt make War," is the modus operandi of the different isms of the City of London—Communism, Capitalism, Zionism and Nazism. As FDR said, "If something happens in politics, you can bet it was planned that way"—whether it was world war or an earthquake. By 'whatever it takes' to accomplish their objectives, men deceive themselves, their families and friends.

Sir John Glubb spent thirty-six years living among the Arabs. From 1939 to 1956 he was in command of the Arab Legion, the little army of the State of Trans-Jordan. By reason of this, he knew at first hand and with military percipience the realities—military, strategic and political—of the Israeli war on the Arabs with its typical Communist atrocities and propaganda. He writes of all this in his book A Soldier With the Arabs (Hodder and Stoughton: London, 1957).

As early as 1939 the late C. H. Douglas recognised that the creation of the State of Israel was one of the real as opposed to the ostensible aims of the Second World War, and that this aim was a strategic objective of what we now recognise as the International Communist Conspiracy. Glubb Pasha, as Sir John is more widely known, recalls that within hours of the ending of the British mandate in Palestine, the US and Russia recognised the State of Israel, and that during the UN 'truce' in the Israeli-Arab war "an aerial ferry was working constantly between Czecho-Slovakia and Israel, bringing in more arms from behind the Iron Curtain." When Israel's victory was assured, Russia consoled the Arabs with (unfortunately well-based) propaganda that their defeat was due to England and the USA, who under the UN truce embargoed arms supplies to the Arabs. (They followed a similar stratagem against Iraq– Ed).

This lucrative strategy was repeated with swift precision in the Israeli-Arab war of June, 1967. The USSR egged the Arabs on to certain defeat, and then supported the UN cease-fire. Under the guise of replacing Arab losses, the USSR moved in fresh military equipment, and technicians. It is reported that the Arabs are given instruction in Russian.

In the light of all this, what Sir John had to say concerning the effect of the first Israeli-Arab war is particularly instructive: "In former times, when armies moved overseas, they did so accompanied by their weapons and administrative requirements. Today, the transport of personnel and the transport of material are widely different problems. The men of whole armies can be flown over seas and continents in a matter of days, if not hours. But the material which they need has never before been so difficult to move. The problem of transporting tanks, guns, vehicles and heavy ammunition is immense. Not only so, but the maintenance of these weapons in the field requires an extensive organisation of workshops and stores. If, therefore, either side can pre-position its material in peace-time, in the theatre of possible operations, so that only the personnel need be flown out, then that army will be the first in action when the war begins."

[Over the past 11 years the US has transferred to Taiwan about 400 M60A3 tanks, 150 F-16 A/B warplanes, 8 destroyers, 6 frigates, 50 AH-1 attack helicopters/OH-58 attack/search helicopters, 52 assault amphibious full-tracked landing vehicles, 28 M109A5 self-propelled howitzers . . . There was no exact account of the missiles the US has sold to Taiwan, but the most important include 120 AIM-120 AMRAAM, 500 Sparrows and an unspecified number of Standards. . . Harpoon and Maverick missiles as well as three HARMs, which are used to destroy anti-missile systems. CNA said that in recent years, Taiwan has deployed advanced US radar, command, communication and electronics' warfare systems, but these were not required to be reported to UNCAR, and the US has not mentioned the Patriot anti-missile system it has sold to Taipei (US getting ready for war; savethemales.ca).

Meanwhile the murder of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri in February 2005 spooked the withdrawal of Syrian troops and was a major factor in the timing and planning of the July 2006 IDF attacks on Lebanon. The underlying objective of this war was the militarization of Lebanon, including the stationing of foreign troops, as a precondition for carrying out the next phase of a broader military agenda foretold in Ezekiel 38-39. Troops and war materials are being amassed in Iraq in preparation for the invasion of Iran (globalresearch.ca).

The BBC has obtained evidence that Israelis have been giving military training to Kurds in northern Iraq (news.bbc.co.uk)].

The USSR and its 'satellites,' the State of Israel, and the USA Administration—not the citizens of the USA—are all aspects of the International Communist Conspiracy. The strategic problem of the Conspiracy is to confront the citizens of the USA with a situation where it would be evidently impracticable for the USA to oppose militarily action by the USSR firstly in the Middle and Far East, and then in Europe.

In short, no alternative but nuclear war by push-button. Following the crash of the US hydrogen bomb-armed aircraft in Greenland, the rest of these strategic bombers have been grounded. It is said that they can be airborne in fifteen minutes but airborne where? If the continuous flights were originally deemed essential for the security of Europe—the nuclear 'umbrella'—has the necessity vanished?

Politics is the art of the possible. But what we are witnessing is the narrowing of alternative possibilities to vanishing point. In the 1920's, reform of the defective financial system could have saved Christian civilization. That possibility has been eliminated in the existing context. In the 1950's Britain, by consolidating the English-speaking Commonwealth to an economically viable unit might have disrupted the Conspiracy's strategy. But Britain is now disarmed and thus deprived of any power of independent initiative. Nuclear war by the USA . . .? March 23, 1968 (The Moving Storm p. 89-90).

Headline stories read: Spy Agencies say Iraq War Worsens Terror Threat. "The American invasion and occupation of Iraq has helped spawn a new generation of Islamic radicalism, according to portions of the highly classified National Intelligence Estimate." And: Big Jump found in Anti-Muslim Incidents. "Complaints involving anti-Muslim discrimination, harassment and violence jumped over 30 percent in 2005 compared to 2004, according to a new report here Monday by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation's largest Muslim organization. A total of 1,972 such incidents were reported in 2005. That was the highest number since CAIR began reporting anti-Muslim incidents in 1995".

This is not news to the 'hidden hand,' but the outworking of a very old plan of things that are to be (Ezekiel 38-39; Daniel 11:40-45). eb442.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are happy to see you.

The end-time evangelism was not sent to preach confessing heathens out of darkness into Light (Matthew 28:18-20), but to awaken the virgin asleep in the denominational darkness of Rome and her once Protestant daughters and preach Christ's Bride into the rapture (Revelation 18:1-4; I Thessalonians 4:16). Although William Branham's ministry restored the apostolic faith and finished the mystery of God (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7), most within the circle of this Message have the "letter only," and without God's "quickening Spirit" their understanding remains overshadowed by the traditions of men. Our guest contributor, Pastor Eli James from Chicago, chops down this denominational overgrowth to bring Christ and Lucifer, the Tree of Life and the intellectual Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, into open ground (Ezekiel 28:12-13).

Pastor James hosts two radio talk-shows and is the author of, "The Great Impersonation: How the Anti-Christ Has Deceived the Whole World." His contribution exposes the duplicitous philosophy of those who have launched vexatious and frivolous litigation against your Church and Christianity generally. It is presented for the edification and correction of those who love our Lord Jesus Christ and desire to serve Him more perfectly through the knowledge of the Truth (John 8:32).

In a court hearing last year the Judge asked me what I thought of the Jew's religion. If he is sincerely seeking to know the answer he will find it in the mind of God expressed in the Old and New Testaments of the Holy Bible upon which he asks witnesses to swear to speak the truth. I believe he is obligated to understand the Book upon which he calls others to take oath. He seems not to realize that God gave all men free moral agency. Jews like everyone else are entitled to worship as and what they choose. His question was uncalled-for since we have never interfered with their liberty, and throughout the twelve years during which they have insulted and defamed us in the national media by a series of unprovoked baseless and foolish lies that have created a false record in media agencies throughout the nation, we have "turned the other cheek".

Those who heed the "Shout" of the Message will grow to maturity in the unity of the faith by the "Voice of the Archangel," which in His earthly sojourn exposed the false identity, fraudulent history and unscriptural religion of those God set at enmity with the children of Adam, the descendants of Israel and the Kingdom of God, which is His Church (Genesis 3:15). "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever," separating Light from darkness.

The great flurry of media reports in recent weeks stating senior officials in the US Administration, from Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, former Attorney General John Ashcroft, Colin Powell, Condaleesa Rice and the CIA's George Tenet, to the janitor, were all warned by intelligence sources that Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda were about to attack the WTC appear to be orchestrated to point the finger away from the reality that 9/11 was an "inside job" for the City of London.

Now for the Good News: the teaching sermon Le Stature de l'Homme Parfait has been added to our French language area.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Battle Brewing Over Military Chaplains

Washington, October 3, 2006– service policies are so restrictive that chaplains cannot invoke Jesus' name when praying in public, including over a dead soldier on the battlefield. . . Full story: truthout.org

Christian, Muslim, Sikh and Jewish: Multi-Faith Coronation for Charles

September 24, 2006– The coronation of the Prince of Wales will be a "multi-faith" event. Prayers and readings from other denominations and religions, including from the Muslim, Sikh and Jewish faiths, are expected to be included in the ceremonies marking Prince Charles's accession to the throne. Canon John Hall, the Dean-elect of Westminster Abbey, said that the traditional Church of England coronation service must be revised to reflect society's changes since the Queen's coronation in 1953. . . "We need to recognize the reality of religion at the heart of our national life. Rather than hold it possessively, it has become possible to help to create space for other religions within our national life. It is leading to inclusion and cohesion." The proposed changes follow comments made by Prince Charles, who has said that he wants to be "Defender of Faith," not "Defender of the Faith," when he succeeds to the throne. . . Full story: telegraph.co.uk

Comment: Faith is a clear revelation of the mind of God. As God is infallible He is not double-minded and can never change His Mind, there is but one faith that is hidden from Cannon John Hall and Prince Charles.

Footballer cautioned for blessing Himself

August 27, 2006– A Roman Catholic footballer who blessed himself during a match has been cautioned by police after it was decided his behaviour had been provocative and had led to crowd trouble.

Fans complained after Artur Boruc, the Polish goalkeeper for Glasgow Celtic, crossed himself during a derby with arch-rivals Rangers at Ibrox stadium, Rangers' home ground, in February.

The teams have strong religious associations, Celtic seen as Catholic and Rangers as Protestant. As crossing oneself is a Catholic tradition, it might be seen as provocative by some Rangers fans. Boruc is a practicing Catholic and says he has always made such gestures while playing.

After an investigation by the procurator fiscal—the Scottish crown prosecutor—it was decided that Boruc's behaviour provoked alarm and crowd trouble and constituted a breach of the peace, but not one serious enough to warrant court action. . . Full story: timesonline.co.uk

Treasures looted by Rome 'are back in the Holy Land'

September 25, 2006– A collection of sacred artefacts looted by the Romans from the Temple of Jerusalem and long suspected of being hidden in the vaults of the Vatican are actually in the Holy Land, according to a British archaeologist. Sean Kingsley, a specialist in the Holy Land, claims to have discovered what became of the collection, which is widely regarded as the greatest of biblical treasures and includes silver trumpets that would have heralded the Coming of the Messiah. The trumpets, gold candelabra and the bejewelled Table of the Divine Presence were among pieces shipped to Rome after the looting in AD70 of the Temple, the most sacred building in the ancient Jewish faith.

In Chronographia, which spanned AD284 to 813, Theophanes recorded that Gaiseric, king of the Vandals, loaded the treasures that "Titus had brought to Rome after the capture of Jerusalem" on a boat to Carthage in Tunisia in AD455. In the first holy crusade in AD533, the Byzantine Belisarius seized the treasure from a royal ship fleeing the Algerian harbour of Hippo Regius. It was then shipped to Constantinople, the capital of Byzantium. In the 7th century, Persians sacked Jerusalem, killing thousands of Christians, and dragging the Patriarch, Zacharias, to Persia. Dr Kingsley believes that his replacement, Modestus, spirited away the treasures to their final hiding place in AD614. Full story: timesonline.co.uk

YOM KIPPUR: The Day of Atonement

While many modern Jews consider the practice barbaric . . . A chicken is slain by a rabbi, (a white rooster for a male, hen for a female), then the owner of the chicken takes it by the legs and swings it around over his head, while reciting a prayer to God that all his sins during the year be transferred to the chicken. This practice presumably arose as a substitute for the azazel, the "scapegoat" described the Torah, which also symbolically received the sins of the people and carried them out of the camp. In these customs we see another of the many pictures we find throughout the Tanakh, symbolic of the atoning Messiah who was to come, about whom the prophet said "the Lord visited on him the guilt of us all" (Isaiah 53:6). Full story: amfi.org

Comment: Evolutionists will wait a long time for a chicken to morph into the kinsman Redeemer of Leviticus 25 and the Book of Ruth. Chickens are not man's "near kinsmen" as the Israelitish high priest Caiaphas acknowledged when he said, "You know nothing at all, nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people" (John 16:7-8). In Leviticus 23, Moses prophesied the hour, day, and month, while Daniel prophesied the day, month and year in which Israel and the Jews would kill that Man, Jesus Messiah.

Leviticus 23:23-32 commands all Israelites to "afflict their soul" on the Day of Atonement, acting in pantomime how the remnant 144,000 will mourn when they recognize the nation murdered Messiah (Daniel 9:24; Zechariah 12:10-14). Jews magnify the offence with the mockery of chicken kapparot.

Kol Nidre: Prayer of the Synagogue of Satan

By Pastor Eli James

Psalm 64, "Lord, listen to my complaint: Oh preserve my life early from the conspiracy of these wicked men, from the noisy gangs of criminals. They cut me down with sharpened tongues; they aim their bitter words like arrows straight to my heart. They shoot from ambush at the innocent, shooting unexpectedly and without self-reproach. They encourage each other to do evil. They meet in secret to set their traps; they say, Who can see us? They keep a sharp lookout for opportunities of crime, for the inward thought of every one of is deep. But God Himself shall shoot an unlooked-for arrow, and they will be wounded suddenly, because their own tongue will bring them to ruin, and all who see it shall scoff at them. Then everyone shall stand in awe, proclaim this act of God, and learn to know His work. The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord, and trust in Him; and all the upright in heart shall glorify Him".

Introduction

I believe it was Cicero who said, "The first casualty of war is the Truth." The second casualty is innocence, because even the innocent are thrown into the fire unwillingly; and innocence turns into doubt and cynicism. Their pastors tell them, We are all "saved."God loves everybody".

"Does God love Satan, Cain and Esau?" And what of their followers and kinsmen? Would they not use lies as their principal weapon against the children of God?

Those who call upon the lovely Name of our Lord Jesus Christ must wake up to the fact that Judaism is a religion of lies. That so few people understand this demonstrates how well the rabbis and their followers conceal their conceit for themselves and their hatred for Christianity. But certain undeniable facts emerge which cannot be explained away. The Kol Nidre prayer is one such undeniable fact.

One of the biggest lies the rabbis have passed off to an unsuspecting humanity is that Judaism is the religion of the Old Testament. But Judaism is the antithesis of Yahweh Torah, the faith of ancient Israel. In order to convince us of their authority, the rabbis frequently mention the Torah and make a great show of parading the scrolls over their heads in processions. The Old Testament was written by Moses and the prophets: some were Levitical priests; none were rabbis, and none were Jews.

As a rule "Torah" means Talmud, the deceit being justified as the alias "Oral Torah." The word "Torah" does not refer to the Bible in Sanhedrin 59a: "A heathen who studies the Torah deserves death, for it is written, Moses commanded us a law for an inheritance; it is our inheritance, not theirs" (Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. V, "Gentiles" p. 619-622).

Moses was not a Jew, he was an Israelite. The Jewish people emerged from the forced assimilation of the Edomites with the Israelite people of Judea in about 126BC under John Hyrcanus. During the chaotic transition from Greek to Roman rule, Antipater, an Idumean and the father of Herod the Great, laid the foundation for Herod's ascension to the throne of Judea by currying favour with Rome. Thus a descendant of Esau would seek to recover the blessing forfeited to Jacob, in vain setting up a natural so-called Jewish kingdom to rival Messiah's spiritual kingdom as it was being fore-announced by John the Baptist.

Popular ignorance of the Jewish religion and Jewish people is endemic in Christendom as is ignorance of Christianity itself. "Christendom is destroyed for lack of knowledge: because it has rejected knowledge, God has rejected Christendom"  (Hosea 4:6; Revelation 18:4).

Jesus said, "If you continue in My Word, you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31-32). Christians need to become aware of the fact that Judaism is not the religion of the Old Testament. Judaism is the Great Pretender, a hybrid religion that appropriated the Old Testament and then claimed authorship. The Bible is NOT a Jewish Book, and Jesus was NOT a Jew. The reality is, Judaism is a religion of lies that impersonates the faith of Israel as the Jewish people impersonate the Israelite race. The Persecution Myth promoted from cradle to grave by the rabbis is a rationalization for their pre-emptive "do unto others before they do unto you".

Let's see what the Bible and Jesus Himself had to say about these Jews: "After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for He would not walk in Jewry because the Jews sought to kill Him" (John 7:1).

"You serpents, you generation of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell? Behold, I will send you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them you shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall you scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom you slew between the temple and the altar. Truly I tell you, All these things shall come upon this generation" (Matthew 23:33-36).

"You are of your father, the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it" (John 8:44).

Shorter Oxford English Dictionary on Historical Principles concurs: the second meaning of the noun "Jew" is "applied to a grasping or extortionate usurer, or a trader who drives hard bargains or deals craftily;" while the verb means, "to cheat or overreach."

The typical Judeo-Christian, (an oxymoron), is unaware that Jesus spoke in such grave condemnation of the Jews because unregenerate ministers ignorantly present them as "G-d's chosen people," but the word "Jew," coined in the late eighteenth century, means "Judean" (Strong's Concordance #2453: Ioudaios, meaning "of a country," "Judean"), that is, any person who is a resident of Judea regardless of religion or race. The Israelites of the House of Judah were just one of several ethnic groups that inhabited Judea at that time so it is erroneous to suggest that all Judeans were of the Tribe or House of Judah. Jerusalem was a cosmopolitan city at the crossroads of international trade. Jews were Judeans who pretended to be of the race and heritage of Judah.

The rabbis use the word "Jew" masterfully to deceive the world into thinking these people are Judahites and therefore Israelites. King Herod is a perfect example of this subterfuge. He was a non-Judahite Idumean who became a Judean by residency. This rabbinical deception prevents men from differentiating Judahites who were Israelites of the House of Judah from Edomites who became Judeans by citizenship. As we come out of Babylon, we must bring our brothers and sisters, parents and children out with us. The contradictions between the words and the reality must not be compromised. We must speak the truth in love, and they must learn to read the Bible.

Judaism and the Tradition of Hypocrisy

Jesus said: "Beware the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy" (Luke 12:1). The religion known as "Judaism" today was called "Pharisaism" in the time of Jesus and was not the faith of Moses and the prophets (Rabbi Louis Finkelstein, The Pharisees, The Sociological Background of Their Faith, p. XXI; Matthew 15:1-9).

Now, no hypocrite will ever admit to being one. The case must be proven because the perpetrator will never incriminate himself. However, the Pharisees have exposed their hand in this regard. They have composed a prayer which glorifies hypocrisy. Centuries old, it is recited by every pious Orthodox Jew three times at their annual Day of Atonement ritual.

Here is the text of the prayer:

"All vows, obligations, oaths or anathemas, pledges of all names, which we have vowed, sworn, devoted, or bound ourselves to, from this day of atonement, until the next day of atonement (whose arrival we hope for in happiness) we repent, aforehand, of them all, they shall all be deemed absolved, forgiven, annulled, void and made of no effect; they shall not be binding, nor have any power; the vows shall not be reckoned as vows, the obligations shall not be obligatory, nor the oaths considered as oaths." (The Jewish Encyclopedia, Volume VIII, p. 539 further exposes this hypocrisy; also, William N. Grimstad, Talk About Hate, Colorado Springs, Colorado: Council on Hate Crime, 1999, p. 254).

The first question any Christian should ask is this: "How can anyone who disavows all vows for the coming year be trusted?" Can such a person make an honest, guileless statement, or are all of his pronouncements filled with guile and wile, just waiting for the opportunity to test the innocent and naïve Christian?

The Jewish Talmud is full of commands that Jews should take advantage of Christians whenever they can get away with it. (See the Talmud, Baba Kamma 113a; 37b; Baba Mezia 24a; Sanhedrin 57a; 76a). Fear of retribution is the only thing preventing them from practicing the Kol Nidre moment by moment. The ancient idea of a Jewish Utopia is one in which only Jewish law applies. (Their Noahide Laws were introduced in the United States by presidential decree in 1991). The Kol Nidre is the signature of Judaism and reveals the true nature of the Jewish mind. No other type of mind would conceive or recite such a prayer.

Two Witnesses

For this analysis of the Kol Nidre, I am going to rely on two witnesses, both Jewish. My first witness will be an article by Rabbi Michael Balinsky entitled "Why Kol Nidre?" It was published in the Jewish United Fund News of September 1995 (page 79). Rabbi Balinsky is a Jew's Jew, one who faithfully and shamelessly promotes Judaism over all other faiths. I am first going to reproduce his article in toto so that you can read it for yourself without any input from me. But I do want you to take note of any rabbinical doublespeak and rationalizations that I will analyze later. Then with Samuel Roth, author of the book, Jews Must Live, I will take it apart in the next section. His book exposes the duplicity of Judaism and how this duplicity infects the minds of individuals and their culture.

Why Kol Nidre?

By Rabbi Michael Balinsky
Special to JUF News

The setting for Kol Nidre on Yom Kippur is religious theater par excellence. The Ark is open; the Torahs surround the Bima; the element of white, signifying purity, is abundant; and the haunting melody of Kol Nidre awakens in us the awareness that today our lives hang in the balance.
But as the chazzan begins to sing the words, and you begin to look at them, questions arise. It is as if the form is much more important than the content.
Why begin this day with a prayer, Kol Nidre, that fails to mention G-d and the important themes we associate with the day: repentance, atonement, life and death?
Why recite what is, in essence, a highly technical legal formula that appears to be far from uplifting?
If anything, it is the opposite. The words admit failure; we will not succeed and fulfil what we claim.
More poignantly, we begin Yom Kippur by directly contradicting an explicit biblical law that commands us to fulfil our vows and forbids us to relinquish them (Numbers 30:2). To begin Yom Kippur by reciting Kol Nidre, a prayer that releases us from our vows, violates a commandment from the Torah, and seems a most peculiar way to begin a day in which we seek forgiveness.
The questions are not new, and many have offered approaches to deal with them. I want to suggest an additional approach, synthesized in part from material gleaned from many teachers.
The idea that forgiveness is possible for the Jewish people is rooted in the biblical narratives of the golden calf episode in Exodus 32-34 and the spies' journey to Israel in Numbers 13-14. These chapters should be studied with particular attention to the prayers of Moses to G-d and their use in the Yom Kippur liturgy.
Forgiveness is possible because of the precedent of the golden calf story, in which G-d forgives the Jewish people for their sin of idolatry. The root of G-d's forgiveness is found in Exodus 34:6-8, in the 13 attributes of G-d, which constitute the central part of the Slichot prayers leading up to and including Yom Kippur. Without them, Yom Kippur would not be possible.
When the people built the calf and began to worship it, Moses was on Mt. Sinai receiving the Torah from G-d. When G-d informed him of what was taking place, and His decision to destroy the people, Moses pleaded with G-d not to do it. The text says, "Vayhal Moshe." (Exodus 32:11), and Moses implored G-d. A brilliant connection is made between the word "vayehal" here (Exodus 32:11) and "yo yahel devaro" (Numbers 30:2), a person cannot annul his vow.
Commenting on this passage, the Rabbis qualify (without any solid textual basis for doing so) that others may release one from his vow. A person must keep his word, but another person has the authority to release him from his vow. Playing on the similarity in words, vayehal and lo yahel, the Rabbis suggest that, while on Mt. Sinai, Moses released G-d from his decision to destroy the people.
Put more dramatically, Moses recited Kol Nidre for G-d.
The implication is that our recitation of Kol Nidre is not only for ourselves, but also for G-d. We begin Yom Kippur by declaring that the Jewish people must live. Beyond that, we assert that our role on Yom Kippur is similar to that of Moses, praying for forgiveness for the Jewish people.
This may also be a key reason for the fast. The Torah records that while Moses was on Mt. Sinai, he neither ate nor drank (Exodus 34:28). Standing in the presence of G-d and praying for the Jewish people placed Moses beyond the need for physical sustenance. It is possible, then, that our fast is not a symbol of affliction and need, but rather, a recognition that, like Moses, we pray to G-d unencumbered by the need for physical nourishment.
According to tradition, it was on Yom Kippur, after Moses had procured forgiveness for the people, that he descended from Mt. Sinai with the Tablets containing the Ten Commandments. Thus, the day became etched as a day of forgiveness and reconciliation. The Rabbis add that in addition to the Tablets, Moses came down with the Oral Law that G-d had taught him while on Mt. Sinai.
Fundamental to Jewish belief is the notion that the Torah comprises two halves: the written Torah, the Five Books of Moses, and the Oral Torah, the process of interpretation and exegesis. For a Jew to study Torah is to engage both the Written Torah and the Oral Torah of interpretation. This means that Yom Kippur is not only a holiday of forgiveness, but also the holiday that celebrates the inauguration of the Oral Torah.
We begin Yom Kippur with Kol Nidre, the prime example of this Oral Torah. The Written Torah is explicit (Numbers 30:2); vows must be fulfiled. As noted above, the Oral Torah, with no real basis in the Written Torah, comments that others can release a person from his vow, a conclusion that emerges only from an interpretive tradition. The Oral Torah, in this case, radically reinterprets the Written Torah. And the prime illustration of the validity of this process of interpretation is Kol Nidre. Our foremost teacher is Moses, who boldly released G-d from his vow to destroy the people, and in doing so began the legacy of Oral Torah, courageously and brilliantly interpreting the word of G-d.
The possibility of repentance, so central to Yom Kippur, shares a similar theme with the Oral Torah. As we saw, the Oral Torah enables us to interpret the Written Torah. What appears to be fixed is not absolute. Repentance follows in the same direction. An act which is sinful does not have to be absolutely recorded as such. Through genuine repentance, it can be transformed into a meritorious deed.
Both Oral Torah and repentance are acts of interpretation. No matter how much our lives appear to be rooted in one direction, repentance allows for change, a new direction, and enables us to interpret where we have been and to generate new possibilities.
Kol Nidre is a potent prayer. What at first appears to be merely a legal formula is really a profound statement of Jewish faith. Kol Nidre teaches us that we are heirs to a dynamic tradition that allows us to engage with G-d in a bold manner. It teaches us that our Torah is alive through the Oral Torah. And it reminds us that repentance enables us to have a creative encounter with our lives, in which we can create new directions and interpretations for that which appears to be fixed.

Kol Nidre: All vows, prohibitive vows, oaths, vows of dedication, konam-vows, konas-vows, and equivalent terms that we have vowed, sworn, declared, and imposed upon ourselves from this day of atonement, may it come upon us for good. Regarding them all, we regret them. Let them be released, forgiven, erased, null and void. They are not valid nor are they in force. Our vows are not vows. Our prohibitive vows are not prohibitive vows. Our oaths are not oaths.

Commentary on this Jewish Doublespeak

Presented with such an combination of truths, half-truths, fibs and fabrications as contained in the above article, a Christian has to wonder if what is stated can be taken seriously. Is Judaism so at odds with the Bible that any rabbi can simply negate the Law of God by declaring it subservient to the "Oral Torah"?

Deuteronomy 4:2 is explicit:

"You SHALL NOT add unto the word which I COMMAND you, neither shall you diminish ought from it, that you may KEEP the commandments of the Lord your God which I COMMAND you."

Rabbi Balinsky's article admits that there is a whole lot of diminishing and countermanding going on here, illustrating the Eastern philosophy that is the root of the Babylonian Talmud. As Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan explained: "One of the leading principles of the mystics was the sacredness and secrecy of self-knowledge and the true knowledge of the gods. This wisdom was, they thought, unfit for, perhaps even dangerous to, the ordinary human mind; or in any case liable to perversion and misuse, and loss of virtue if revealed to the vulgar and unpurified spirits. Hence they favoured the existence of an outer worship, effective but imperfect, for the profane" (Indian Philosophy). Can Balinsky weasel his way out of this? Let's see how well this rabbi can dance.

The good rabbi admits that Numbers 30:2 is just as explicit as Deuteronomy 4:2; but that does not prevent him from reinterpreting this verse to mean the exact opposite of what it says. This is the rabbinical method and tradition. I can't wait to hear how Deuteronomy 4:2 is confabulated, with "boldness" and "repentance," into allowing all rabbinical opinions to overturn any Scriptural verse that does not suit them. What can we say about a religion that goes around posturing as the safekeeper of God's Law when what they really do is mock it?– pretending to have originated it while at every opportunity they negate it!

I will now comment on select quotes by the good rabbi:

Rabbi Balinsky: The setting for Kol Nidre on Yom Kippur is religious theater par excellence
That it is, just as all of Judaism is a pretence of Mosaicism. Hence, Judaism is theater, par excellence.
Why recite what is, in essence, a highly technical legal formula that appears to be far from uplifting?
If anything, it is the opposite. The words admit failure; we will not succeed and fulfil what we claim.
More poignantly, we begin Yom Kippur by directly contradicting an explicit biblical law that commands us to fulfil our vows and forbids us to relinquish them (Numbers 30:2). To begin Yom Kippur by reciting Kol Nidre, a prayer that releases us from our vows, violates a commandment from the Torah, and seems a most peculiar way to begin a day in which we seek forgiveness.

This is quite a stunning admission. It is not as though the good rabbi does not understand that he is countermanding an explicit command of Moses! We have to ask: "Who is a rabbi to contradict the Word of God?" And "Who are the Jews to presume to contradict the Word of God?" And, is this not that same as putting words in God's mouth?—presuming to speak for God?– Deuteronomy 18:20!

Rabbi Balinsky: Forgiveness is possible because of the precedent of the golden calf story, in which G-d forgives the Jewish people for their sin of idolatry. The root of G-d's forgiveness is found in Exodus 34:6-8, in the 13 attributes of G-d, which constitute the central part of the Slichot prayers leading up to and including Yom Kippur. Without them, Yom Kippur would not be possible.

This is sheer sophistry. Forgiveness is conditional upon confession, repentance and restitution. With the exception of Moses, Joshua and Caleb, few of the adult Israelites who departed Egypt were elect of God, however they were necessary to bear the children who would enter the Land. Having rejected Abraham's grace covenant at Kadesh God placed the nation under the curse of the Mosaic Law. The names of these unbelieving individuals, having committed the unpardonable sin, were already blotted from the Book of Life and they were damned (Numbers 14:26-34; Deuteronomy 1:35; Psalm 95:10-11; Ezekiel 26; John 6:49; Hebrews 3:7-12; 6:4-8; Jude 5).

With regard to the idolatry of the golden calf, "the Lord said to Moses, Whosoever has sinned against Me, him will I blot out of My book" (Exodus 32:33). The idolaters had committed the unforgivable sin; it was the nation that was forgiven, not individual Israelites. God's promise was to lead the nation to the Promised Land.

Rabbi Balinsky: When the people built the calf and began to worship it, Moses was on Mt. Sinai receiving the Torah from G-d. When G-d informed him of what was taking place, and His decision to destroy the people, Moses pleaded with G-d not to do it. The text says, "Vayhal Moshe." (Exodus 32:11), and Moses implored G-d. A brilliant connection is made between the word "vayehal" here (Exodus 32:11) and "yo yahel devaro" (Numbers 30:2), a person cannot annul his vow.

Yes, this commandment from Scripture is clear and unequivocal. The only way to disannul such a vow is to plead with the other party to do so. Anything else turns the vow into a lie; and unlike rabbis, He does not approve of cleverly-worded lies. The "good rabbi" is telling us that God approves of these lies! God forgave the nation, not the individual sinners.

Rabbi Balinsky: Commenting on this passage, the Rabbis qualify (without any solid textual basis for doing so) that others may release one from his vow. A person must keep his word, but another person has the authority to release him from his vow.

The obvious implication here is that "another person" means a rabbi. But the Bible allows no such thing. Parties to contracts (vows, obligations, agreements) must renegotiate the terms of the contract in order for any change to take place. Thus, the ONLY person who has any power to change or annul the contract is the person with whom the agreement was made. No third parties have ANY say in such agreements. Only the Jewish religion makes any such contrary claim. But the Commandments are in a completely different category. "THOU SHALT NOT" is not in the form of an agreement. It is a command that we do not the option of disobeying without incurring a penalty. Obviously, the rabbis feel differently.

Rabbi Balinsky: Playing on the similarity in words, vayehal and lo yahel, the Rabbis suggest that, while on Mt. Sinai, Moses released G-d from his decision to destroy the people.

This is ridiculous. More Jewish fables and hocus-pocus! Since when are we allowed to transform a "play on words" into doctrine! Moses did not have the power to "release" the Lord God from anything. If He hears our pleas, it is His pleasure to accept or deny them. No human, including any priest or rabbi, has any power or authority to "release" God from anything. The rabbis employ such language to use as a precedent for later distortions of Scripture. In this case, Rabbi Balinsky uses this language as a false premise for an even more gigantic rationalization.

Put more dramatically, Moses recited Kol Nidre for G-d.

What Satanic insolence! Can you believe this presumptuousness? Is this rabbi not spitting in the face of God? Where is the proof of this statement? What possible evidence could there be for such a ridiculous claim? This is Pharisaic, rabbinical prevarication, through and through! That God would accept such a prayer from Moses would be for Him to deny His declaration that He is the author of Honesty and Truth. You might as well throw the Bible away if you believe what this agent of Lucifer is saying.

Rabbi Balinsky: The implication is that our recitation of Kol Nidre is not only for ourselves, but also for G-d.

This is blasphemy, folks! In other words, God "forgives" false vows in advance! This makes a mockery of Scripture! This is a denial that Truth has any meaning. It denies God's omniscience.

Let me ask you, "Are the thoughts of God eternal?" If you can see this, you will see many things. God is unchangeable in both essence and behaviour. God is infinite in His abilities so therefore He as God must be omniscient. If He is omniscient, then He is not now learning, nor is He taking counsel even with Himself, nor is He at any time adding to His knowledge. If He can add to His knowledge, then He is not omniscient. The best we could say is that sometime He will be. But that is not Scriptural.

He IS omniscient. He has never had a new thought about anything because all His thoughts He has always had and always will have, and knows the end from the beginning because He is God. THUS THE THOUGHTS OF GOD ARE ETERNAL. THEY ARE REAL. They are not simply like a man with a blueprint he has drawn up and which one day will be translated into substance and form, but they are already real and eternal, and part of God. Psalms 139:15-16 explains this as does John 1:1: "The Logos or Word pre-existed time, and the Logos was with God as His unexpressed thoughts, and the Logos was God" (William Branham, An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 149:3).

God's Word is Spirit expressed in a form we can receive by faith and be born of eternal Life (John 6:63). Malachi 3:6, "I am the Lord, I change not." Matthew 24:36, "Heaven and earth shall change, but My Words shall not pass away." If God's Word can change it is not eternal.

Rabbi Balinsky: We begin Yom Kippur by declaring that the Jewish people must live. Beyond that, we assert that our role on Yom Kippur is similar to that of Moses, praying for forgiveness for the Jewish people.

On the contrary, Moses was an Israelite of pure Adamic descent. There was no kinship between Moses and the Jewish people. Since they derive from non-Semitic Ashkenazim (95%) and Sephardic Edomites (5%), there were no Jews at all at Mt. Sinai. There were Israelites but not Jews. The placement of Jews in this scene is rabbinical fabrication designed to falsely equate Jews with Israelites in our minds. But Rabbi Balinsky's implication is even more chilling, namely: "We Jews can "release" God from our vows "just as Moses did." How quaint! How devious! How Luciferian! And you thought you knew something about Judaism!

Rabbi Balinsky: According to tradition, it was on Yom Kippur, after Moses had procured forgiveness for the people, that he descended from Mt. Sinai with the Tablets containing the Ten Commandments. Thus, the day became etched as a day of forgiveness and reconciliation. The Rabbis add that in addition to the Tablets, Moses came down with the Oral Law that G-d had taught him while on Mt. Sinai.

Where is the proof that Moses "came down with the Oral Law"? Where does it say that in Scripture? By whose authority does Rabbi Balinsky make this statement? The rabbis even admit that the Oral Law has no basis in Scripture, so why should anyone take it seriously? If the Written Law is contradicted by the Oral Law, how can the Oral Law possibly supersede the Written Law? Justly did Jesus Messiah say of them: "Thus have you made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition . . . But in vain do they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." Now do you understand why the rabbinate hates Jesus with such a passion? Its because He exposed them for the liars, scoundrels and hypocrites that they really are!

In his Foreword to the Soncino Talmud, the Very Rev. The Chief Rabbi Dr. J. H. Hertz wrote: "The Talmud is the product of Palestine, the land of the Bible, and of Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilisation. The beginnings of Talmudic literature date back to the time of the Babylonian Exile in the sixth pre-Christian century before the Roman Republic had yet come into existence." In other words, the Oral Law or Talmud had its genesis in Babylon, NOT Egypt.

Still enthusing over the Babylonian derivation of Pharisaism, Rabbi Hertz continues: "When we come to the Babylonian Gemara, we are dealing with what most people understand when they speak or write of the Talmud. Its birthplace, Babylonia, was an autonomous Jewish center for a longer period than any other land; namely from soon after 586 before the Christian era to the year 1040 after the Christian Era — 1626 years.. . . . [Rabbi] Akiba [15BC to AD132] was the author of a collection of traditional laws out of which the Mishnah actually grew. . . The language of the Mishnah is Neo-Hebrew, a natural development from Biblical Hebrew . . . there is in it a large admixture of Aramaic, Greek and also Latin terms. . ." Obviously not the vernacular on Mount Sinai.

So if we take the Chief Rabbi of the British Empire at his word, the Talmud, Oral Torah or Oral Law is of somewhat more recent composition than the Pentateuch or Torah which pre-date the Babylonian exile by about 900 years. Can Rabbi Balinsky be mistaken?

Rabbi Balinsky: Fundamental to Jewish belief is the notion that the Torah comprises two halves: the written Torah, the Five Books of Moses, and the Oral Torah, the process of interpretation and exegesis. For a Jew to study Torah is to engage both the Written Torah and the Oral Torah of interpretation. This means that Yom Kippur is not only a holiday of forgiveness, but also the holiday that celebrates the inauguration of the Oral Torah.

And this is nothing but a gigantic lie. Is this not Lucifer saying to God, "I overrule you"? Is this not the very pride by which Lucifer was cast out of heaven? The essence of the "Oral Torah" is that the rabbi can interpret the Written Torah any way he wants. Like lawyers setting legal precedents, if a rabbi has made a statement in contradiction to the clear Written Torah, the "Oral Torah" becomes valid and authoritative interpretation! God is His own Interpreter. He interprets His Word either by bringing It to pass, or by sending a vindicated prophet. The test for a prophet is that anything he says in the Name of the Lord will be in absolute agreement with the Word of every previously vindicated prophet, and that it will come to pass as stated (Numbers 12:6; Deuteronomy 13:1-5; 18:15-22). The Talmud makes the Word of Moses and the prophets of no effect to its believers since it is their antithesis (Matthew 15:1-9). So Rabbi Balinsky's assertion that the Oral Torah was delivered by Moses to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai is PURE FABRICATION. Besides, there were no "Jewish people" at Mount Sinai.

"Yom Kippur is not only a holiday of forgiveness," it is a prophetic pantomime of Israel's rejection of Messiah and soon-coming mourning when faith "finishes the transgression, makes an end of sins and reconciliation for iniquity, brings in everlasting righteousness, confirms the prophetic vision, and anoints the Most Holy" — the Son of David, King Jesus Messiah with His Bride and Queen, the elect Church.

Rabbi Balinsky: We begin Yom Kippur with Kol Nidre, the prime example of this Oral Torah. The Written Torah is explicit (Numbers 30:2); vows must be fulfiled. As noted above, the Oral Torah, with no real basis in the Written Torah, comments that others can release a person from his vow, a conclusion that emerges only from an interpretive tradition.

Note this admission, "the Oral Torah, with no real basis in the Written Torah." The rabbinate knows full well that their Oral Tradition cannot stand up to Scripture. The choice is very clear: the Bible or the "Oral Torah."

Rabbi Balinsky: The Oral Torah, on this case, radically reinterprets the Written Torah. And the prime illustration of the validity of this process of interpretation is Kol Nidre. Our foremost teacher is Moses, who boldly released G-d from his vow to destroy the people, and in doing so began the legacy of Oral Torah, courageously and brilliantly interpreting the word of G-d.

. . . to mean the EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT THE BIBLE ACTUALLY SAYS! Of course, this article was not meant for Christian eyes or ears. The Jewish Encyclopedia (Vol. V, p. 619– 622) is still more open about Sanhedrin 59a, threatening death to any Jew who revealed the "Torah" laws (by which is implied the fraudulent "Oral Torah" or Talmud) to Gentiles "for such knowledge might have operated against the Jews in our opponents' courts."

Let us fully understand what we are dealing with: "The Jewish religion as it is today traces its descent, without a break, through all the centuries, from the Pharisees. Their leading ideas and methods found expression in a literature of enormous extent, of which a very great deal is still in existence. The Talmud is the largest and most important single member of that literature"(The Universal Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. VIII., p. 474).

Should Christians accept the interpretations of the unrepentant successors of those who crucified Messiah? Why are your pulpitmasters not warning you about these wolves in sheep's clothing who feign piety at every opportunity? "Because they believed not the revelation of God's unchanging Word, but had pleasure in human reasoning against the faith," and that is the mark of the beast (II Thessalonians 2:12). The majority of ministers are as deceived as their congregations.The Jewish masses are deceived as well, for the rabbis have convinced them that the world is out to get them. Judaism is a religion of paranoia.

Rabbi Balinsky: The possibility of repentance, so central to Yom Kippur, shares a similar theme with the Oral Torah. As we saw, the Oral Torah enables us to interpret the Written Torah. What appears to be fixed is not absolute. Repentance follows in the same direction. An act which is sinful does not have to be absolutely recorded as such. Through genuine repentance, it can be transformed into a meritorious deed.

What an amazing piece of doublespeak! "What appears to be fixed is not absolute"! "Through genuine repentance, it can be transformed into a meritorious deed!" Isaiah 5:20-21, "Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight"! The amazing thing is how anybody can take a rabbi seriously!

Rabbi Balinsky: Both Oral Torah and repentance are acts of interpretation.

I have always "interpreted" repentance to mean genuine regret for previous sins committed and a sincere desire never to repeat those sins again! Obviously, that is not the interpretation of the Oral Torah or the Kol Nidre!

Rabbi Balinsky: No matter how much our lives appear to be rooted in one direction, repentance allows for change, a new direction, and enables us to interpret where we have been and to generate new possibilities.

The chameleon changes colors to suit the times and the circumstances.

Rabbi Balinsky: Kol Nidre is a potent prayer. What at first appears to be merely a legal formula is really a profound statement of Jewish faith. Kol Nidre teaches us that we are heirs to a dynamic tradition that allows us to engage with G-d in a bold manner. Rabbi Balinsky: It teaches us that our Torah is alive through the Oral Torah. And it reminds us that repentance enables us to have a creative encounter with our lives, in which we can create new directions and interpretations for that which appears to be fixed.

Next time you have a "creative encounter" with a Jew, remember the Kol Nidre!

Rabbi Michael Balinsky is director of Hillel at Northwestern University and vice president of the Chicago Board of Rabbis.

The Chicago Board of Rabbis stands condemned by their approval of the teachings of this professor!

For good measure, here is Balinsky's text of the Kol Nidre repeated. Let it sink this time:

Kol Nidre: All vows, prohibitive vows, oaths, vows of dedication, konam-vows, konas-vows, and equivalent terms that we have vowed, sworn, declared, and imposed upon ourselves from this day of atonement, may it come upon us for good. Regarding them all, we regret them. Let them be released, forgiven, erased, null and void. They are not valid nor are they in force. Our vows are not vows. Our prohibitive vows are not prohibitive vows. Our oaths are not oaths.

I have regretted some of the vows I have made, but it has never occurred to me to "reinterpret" them so as to annul them. Only the Jews have the chutzpah to declare themselves sacrosanct in this manner. It is a most Satanic perversion of Scripture. Judaism is the religion of the devil based upon fraudulent authority as Jesus said — pretence built on a mountain of lies (John 6:44; Revelation 2:9; 3:9).

Samuel Roth on the Kol Nidre

Rabbi Balinsky has demonstrated for us how the Jewish mind fabricates, prevaricates and interpolates. It is brainwashing for the Jewish people and it is deception for the masses. The religion of Judaism has raised hypocrisy to the highest of fraudulent arts. It treats truth as a plaything to be used for sport on the unsuspecting masses. Samuel Roth, on the other hand is one of those rare Jews who tells it like it is, even to the point of being tactless. Roth treats the deep, dark secret that Judaism is a mountain of lies as matter-of-factly as one who has been there.

From Jews Must Live:

Certainly no other religion in the world has offered the world a spectacle as contradictory, as malicious, as full of the spirit of unreasonableness as the Jewish recital of the prayer Kol Nidre during Yom Kippur. I suggest that if we are going to start tearing down this great fortress of Jewish religious prejudice and intolerance, Kol Nidre is perhaps the best starting point.

Kol Nidre! What the sound of that word means to a Jew from the first time he hears it in the white twilight of the tall-candled synagogue on the eve of Yom Kippur, and on through the wilderness of ghetto years, only a Jew can understand! The most intimate memories of childhood, youth and manhood, twine themselves about that tune, and he hangs upon it, as upon branches of a tree, the choicest of his emotions, till to threaten sacrilege against Kol Nidre would seem to threaten life itself.

Here, Samuel Roth reproduces the prayer from the authorized prayer book of the Hebrew Publishing Company:

All vows, obligations, oaths or anathemas, pledges of all names, which we shall have vowed, sworn, devoted or bound ourselves to, from this day of atonement (whose arrival we hope for in happiness) to the next, we repent, aforehand, of them all. They shall be deemed absolved, forgiven, annulled, void and made of no effect; they shall not be binding nor have any power; the vows shall not be reckoned vows, the obligations shall not be reckoned obligatory, nor the oaths considered oaths.
And it shall be forgiven to the whole congregation of Israel, and to the stranger who sojourneth amongst them; for all the people act ignorantly."

Roth's explanation:

And is that, you ask, all of the Kol Nidre? That is all there is to the Kol Nidre, I must answer. In reciting it the Jew solemnly swears before his Lord God that he has only one fealty, loyalty or obligation, and that is to Him, the Lord God. No matter what business he may undertake to promote with his neighbor, be it material or moral, he wants the Lord God to understand in advance that there will be one implicit condition (a condition, however, he does not undertake to explain before entering into an argument): the execution of it must be favorable to Him, the Lord God, or it will be considered by the Jew void, of no account, utterly useless, as if it had never been mentioned, as if nothing related to it had ever been negotiated.

Is the God that you believe in so devious? To "repent" in advance thus means to deceive those who know nothing of such fore-ordained "repentance." If the Jew can get away with it, he will "repent." If the Christian knows Judaism, then the Jew can't get away with it any more.

When the meaning of Kol Nidre became known during the Dark Ages, a cry of rage broke from the throats of the goyim. "In that case," they cried, "a Jew may enter into any arrangement with us, with a light heart. Does his enterprise prosper? Then he abides by the agreement. If not, he can always denounce the whole affair by remembering that in the moment of Kol Nidre, the most sacred of all the moments in the Jew's life, he had practically, fully and without equivocation negated it."

And so it came about that the eve of Yom Kippur became, for the gentiles throughout Europe, a time for protest against Jewish knavery. Usually the gentiles living near a Jewish community would announce the coming of Yom Kippur by displaying posters everywhere, reading:

"BEWARE: THE DAY IS AT HAND WHEN THE JEW RENOUNCES AS INSINCERE ANY DEALINGS HE MAY HAVE WITH YOU DURING THE COMING YEAR. BEWARE!"

In many communities legislators considered it necessary to have a special form of oath administered to Jews—an oath intended to negate the oath of Kol Nidre. This oath was known as the Jew's Oath. There were judges who absolutely refused to take any supplementary oath from a Jew, as totally insincere and untrustworthy, and they based their objections chiefly on Kol Nidre.

The origin of this most extraordinary (as well as unwisest) of all Jewish prayers is hidden in the mists of the Dark Ages. No one knows how it came into existence in the first place. No one has any idea how it became so vital a part of the synagogue service. It is only fair to add that, in spite of the general acceptance which Kol Nidre has enjoyed since its inception, there has never been a time when there was a really strong and honest opposition to it among Jews. Of the six Gaonim of the two Babylonian Academies, for instance, five placed themselves unalterably against admitting it into the program of prayer for Yom Kippur.

The question must be asked; "Were these Gaonim opposed to the spirit of the prayer or only concerned about the reaction to the prayer by the goyim should they become aware of its content?"

How did it happen, then, that despite the anger of the gentile world, which considered the prayer a gross and insulting breach of faith with it, and against the advice of the wisest and most pious among the priests of Israel, Kol Nidre was not only adopted in the Prayer Book but achieved such distinction in the Jewish mind that it can be associated in the minds of the people in holiness only with the Ten Commandments?

Amazing that DENIAL of the Ten Commandments could be held in such high regard by those who claim to be the originators of the Bible!—only if it should become necessary, of course!

The retention and magnification of Kol Nidre in the grand order of the synagogue is a characteristic bit of Jewish mob obstinacy– in this case an obstinacy entirely without justification in reason or in history . . . The accepted current version has an important alteration made in it by Rashi's son-in-law, Meier ben Samuel, who changed the original phrase "from the last Day of Atonement to this one" to "from this Day of Atonement to the next one." As if, morally, it makes any difference whether you welsh on an arrangement already made or on one you might make at a later date! [Jewish Encyclopedia, Volume VII, p. 540.]

Hence, the expression "Don't jew me!"

But the height of interpretive shrewdness is reached in the explanation of Rabbi Isaiah of Trani. "Since the Jews come to the synagogue on Yom Kippur to ask forgiveness for all their sins, it is important that they clear themselves of all vows which they might carry out during the following year."

It seems to me that Rabbi Balinsky of Chicago, having several centuries of rabbinical shrewdness to fall back upon, has masterfully outdone Rabbi Isaiah of Trani.

Kol Nidre has dug a trench for itself deep in the heart of the Jewish people. It seems as if to try to undermine it is to undermine the life of the whole people. . . We must unearth Kol Nidre and fling the foul corpse over the rim of the earth, if we are ever to get rid of Judaism.

I have the same objection to Yom Kippur (Day of Forgiveness) that I have to the Catholic institution of Confession. It breeds instability of mind and character. If a man knows that no matter how badly he behaves a whole year, no matter what crimes or iniquities he commits, a day sure to come when all his transgressions, civil and criminal alike, will be forgiven him, it is only human that he should be tempted to do rash, violent things to promote his worldly fortunes.

The Priesthood of Great Pride

The episode in the life of Christ which enraged the Pharisees more than any other was when Jesus healed a man whose friends went to all the trouble of climbing onto the rooftop of the house He was in; and then they lowered the sick man's bed, with him in it, down through a hole in the roof so as to present him to Jesus. Whereupon Jesus said: "Man, your sins are forgiven" (Luke 5:20).

How dare this Nazarene, without their consent, assume the role and authority of a priest! You see, the priesthood doesn't like it when someone outside of their fraternity demonstrates to them that they are obsolete! Worse than that, Jesus was telling them that He outranked them! And that rankled them to no end. "But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins . . . "

Like the angels who rebelled against God in heaven, the rabbis rebel against the Gospel, which teaches that those who would lead must SERVE, not DICTATE.

"You know that they who are accounted to rule over the nations exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you: whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: and whosoever of you will be chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many" (Mark 10:42-45).

Notice, He gave His life for many. Not for all.

The rabbi, as the ultimate rebel against God and His Son, cannot bear to serve anyone other than himself. And the rabbinate, which is nothing more than the devil's mutual admiration society, since it has no real power other than deception, must constantly consult the spirit of Lucifer, which always seeks to make evil good and good evil. Fair and gentle minds cannot understand the satisfaction the rabbi gets from a plot well laid and a victim snared. Like the serial killer who likes to see his victims suffer as much as possible, he must first present the victim with a ploy, such as "persecution." Sometimes, the game turns deadly. This is what Judaism did to Czarist Russia.

The difference between a dishonest person and a rabbi is that the rabbi has been practicing his art, not just for a lifetime, but, through his teachers and predecessors, for millennia. He is so good at it that even when he admits to being a liar, he makes himself sound good. The deceptive intellect wants, above all things, to be worshipped. It is more important to him to be "smarter than thou" than to be "holier than thou." By faking the latter he becomes the former to those duped; and he eventually deludes himself into thinking that this can go on forever. Those who desire to be worshipped cannot abide a higher being than themselves, such as the Lord God, whether manifest in the unchanging Word revealed by His prophets, in the virgin born flesh of Adam's kinsman Redeemer, who is the beginning of God manifesting Himself in the flesh of His glorified Family, or as the unseen Holy Spirit. Thus, they cannot serve; they can only dictate. This was the sin of Lucifer.

"Pride cometh before a fall." Does not Scripture teach that Satan will be burned in the Lake of Fire? Did not Jesus question the Pharisees: "How can you escape the damnation of hell?" Hence, their rebellion is complete; it cannot go unpunished. You may try to convert evil; but evil cannot be converted. That is why it IS evil. And evil's favorite sport is pretending to be good and watching its victims suffer.

Conclusion

The rabbis of Judaism have been posturing as both the people to whom the Law was delivered and also as the Keepers of the Law. Both propositions are false. Were it they to whom the Law was delivered, its true watchmen and Guardians, they would keep it. What you have heard from these two Jewish witnesses is a detailed examination of the art of hypocrisy. In this art, the Talmudic rabbis have no equal. Two thousand years of this earthly tradition have made them the masters of the Big Lie as Goebbels said. It has fooled the entire world, except for the elect of Adam's race—Jew or Gentile.

Given all of the foregoing evidence, one can only conclude that the Jewish Day of Atonement is the blackest day of the calendar. It is the day on which the Truth dies and honesty is mocked by Jews the world over. If ever there was a prayer in honor of father of lies, it is the Kol Nidre. eb443.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Four sixty-second flash films presented by US Congressman Jim Condit Jr. for his re-election campaign coincidentally explain why our Church and its pastor have been subject to unprovoked persecution for over twelve years. It is promised that "all who will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution." The fourth clip and the following commentary indicate why we are victims of this long-running program of vilification in the national print and broadcast media and in publications and websites of our oppressor, defaming the Church and myself and creating a false profile from press clippings written by their own journalists certain to mislead lazy reporters into blackening Christ's Name in the public mind should they be successful in prosecuting us for "racial hatred."

The enemy of God and man always works under another name and in a different occupation, "lest anyone finding him should kill him" (Genesis 4:14). At Court last year I was interviewed by the Religious Affairs journalist for the Sydney Morning Herald, prepped by such files. Her first question asked, "Why are you white supremacists"? I explained that when it comes to faith, God is color-blind, and showed her photographs of some of our congregations who are mostly colored. Her second question was, "Why does your Church follow the Christian Identity religion"? I replied, "But where can one find a Scriptural basis for the Christian Identity/British Israel religion? It is a fraud contrived by the Jewish Cabbalist John Dee to persuade Queen Elizabeth I and superstitious Englishmen to readmitting Jews into England." She saw the conspiracy of scurrilous lies planted to cause her to make a 'sting' on Christ's Church, in her name and occupation.

By the grace of God the Court granted our application to re-open the hearings and present evidence. Like their untruthful media campaign, the Complaint of our persecutors and yours is a lie contradicted by their evidence, which after twenty-seven months is still not complete. They have deceitfully misused the law under which they have attacked us in order to perpetuate the myth that six million Jews were exterminated in World War I and another six million in World War II (to say nothing of six million Jews they claim were exterminated between those wars). Christians care not what they believe or claim, God gave free moral agency to every man, but we must speak the truth in love to God's people.

We don't discriminate against Jews or any other race. Indeed, most of the contributors to this Newsletter are Jews, two live in Israel. Our long-term researcher is a Jew and many of our subscribers are Jews but like ourselves they are beset by a minority of self-seeking fanatics who know not God and regard not men.

Please remember us in prayer on October 18. We are without legal representation in the Court and rely on truth and the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ for complete acquittal and the granting of exemption under section 18D of the Act to secure our Website against further aggression. We are at the end of the Gentile dispensation; pray also for our non-Semitic Zionist oppressors. As Gentiles also, their day of grace ends with our own, for when Christ returns to Israel by the ministry of two Hebrew prophets, He will reveal Himself to an election of 144,000 sons of Israel, not one of whom will be a Jew.

Owing to this frivolous and vexatious litigation I have been unable to prepare a main article for this week's Newsletter so we will share some thoughts from Pastor David J. Meyer's Last Trumpet Newsletter. "This present condition allows the Luciferian or satanic forces of the antichrist New World Order to continually further their cause and to draw ever closer to their ultimate and final objective. That objective has been to gradually realign nations, economies, and religions through brainwashing concepts of globalism. This brainwashing is designed to produce a one-world population that is welded together by collective thought and manipulated by misdirection away from truth. . . All of this is happening because our political and economic leaders have a religion called Luciferianism, which operates on deception, and they are very strict in their beliefs." A Kafkaesque web of alien laws and bureaucratic systems has been spun around the Church in the coup that is subsuming State sovereignty and "harmonizing" laws into a totalitarian feudalistic world, a scheme no Israelite or Christian would countenance (Genesis 1:11; Numbers 23:9; Amos 3:3; Matthew 24:37), yet the apostate world church system is receiving the offer Christ refused (Matthew 4:8-9; Revelation 13:1-8; 17:1– 19:21).

Do you believe Revelation 13:11? George II has publicly declared dictatorship and a world police state. Set aside two hours and listen to Jeff Rense interview Alex Jones on October 2, 2006. The first and second interviews further confirm what we have shared of Dr. Peter Beter's disclosures in the '70s and Brother Branham's prophecies in the late '50s, and we see from the news items below China is fast catching up.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

The Octopus of One World Government is constructing Military Garrisons to rule its Prison Planet

In all-too-real worlds beyond our reach, everything tends toward permanency. . . These are increasingly the crucial realities of our world—and it's not the world of a republic. . . It's distinctly not the world as we Americans like to imagine it, but it is the world we are, regrettably enough, lost in. It's the world created not just by a commander-in-chief presidency, but by a Pentagon-in-chief-dominated government, and by a corporation-in-chief style of imperial rule. . . It is a world striving for permanence . . . Full story: atimes.com atimes.com

Comment: The pastor of our sister Church in Nigeria wrote: Sometime between August and October 2003 it was announced on local radio Koffi Annan and George Bush has said, that Nigeria will soon be a defunct nation. According to local news broadcasts, US submarines have been stationed on the gulf of Guinea since June last year. I think America is behind the present unrest our oil region of Nigeria and believe they want to evict other interests like Britain. The attacks are mostly on Shell installations. The Militants are fighting for local sovereignty over oil resources. One of the Nations which will emerge will be called The Republic of Biafra.

Iran's Proud but Discreet Jews

Teheran, September 22, 2006– Although Iran and Israel are bitter enemies, few know that Iran is home to the largest number of Jews anywhere in the Middle East outside Israel. About 25,000 Jews live in Iran and most are determined to remain no matter what the pressures—as proud of their Iranian culture as of their Jewish roots. It is dawn in the Yusufabad synagogue in Teheran and Iranian Jews bring out the Torah and read the ancient text before making their way to work. It is not a sight you would expect in a revolutionary Islamic state, but there are synagogues dotted all over Iran where Jews discreetly practice their religion.

"Imam Khomeini made a distinction between Jews and Zionists and he supported us," said Unees Hammami, who organized the prayers. State-run television confuses Zionism and Judaism so that "ordinary people may think that whatever the Israelis do is supported by all Jews". Full story: news.bbc.co.uk

Comment: Ordinary people also confuse Zionists, Jews and Israelis with Israelites. Those with wisdom will understand why Israel wish to bomb Iran (Genesis 27:39-41; Isaiah 11:11).

China tests Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor

Beijing, September 28, 2006– Chinese scientists made their first successful test of a thermonuclear fusion reactor . . . the new but uncertain technology that promises clean power, state media reported.

Thermonuclear fusion seeks to generate power by joining nuclei of atoms together, releasing energy that can be tapped without producing greenhouse gases but creating a small amount of nuclear waste. Scientists at the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced they had successfully tried a domestically developed fusion device in the eastern Chinese city of Hefei. . . Full story: politics.yahoo.com

Comment: Thermonuclear fusion generates far less waste than fission power produces. There are no spent fuel rods or radioactive reaction products with fusion reactors. The only waste are components of the reactor made radioactive by the fusion process, and lacking actinides, these contaminated components have half-lives measured in a few years as opposed to the tens of thousands of years' half lives for fission waste. There is also no danger of a runaway chain reaction and meltdowns like Chernobyl with fusion reactors. Is this the way of the future and the first step away from dependency on fossil fuels (and the wars fought over them).

Pentagon Confirms China's Anti-Satellite Laser Test

Washington, October 5, 2006– The Pentagon has confirmed that China has tested its anti-satellite laser and jammed a US satellite but wouldn't say which satellite was involved.

The US has 30 Global Positioning Satellites that it relies on for a number of tasks. That ranges from military uses such as targeting bombs and finding enemy locations to consumer uses such as automobile navigation systems and bank automatic teller machines. . .

The incident has sparked worldwide concerns over the vulnerabilities of communications satellites and has made watchdog groups to reconsider if satellite problems are caused by malfunctions, weather anomalies like solar flares, or targeted attacks. Full story: scotsman.com

Beijing holds Whip Hand over Slowing US

October 4, 2006– Relations between Beijing and Washington have become increasingly strained. China is strengthening its ties with Iran, Syria, Venezuela and North Korea—the Bush administration's arch-enemies. As the US economy falls into recession in 2007 and economic growth slows in China, relations between Beijing and Washington could completely unravel—which poses much greater economic risk to the United States than to China. . . With a foreign-policy battle already raging between Washington and Beijing, it is only a matter of time until a battle over economic policies also erupts. Full story: atimes.com

Comment: The US is living beyond its means, hoping that nobody cashes the checks . . . the dollar will start to lose its reserve currency status, not to the euro but to the renminbi or the rupee. This would clearly have massive economic and geopolitical consequences. The City cannot remain on top without war to ensure control or resources. Full story: guardian.co.uk

Chemtrails: GAO report admits "chaff." Lab report reveals much more

July, 2006– Last May a family in Iowa contacted the office of Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA) to report the constant criss-crossing of "chemtrails" in the sky above their neighborhood. They received back from the senator's office a General Accounting Office (GAO) report on "military chaff" and the material safety data sheet for aluminum-coated fiberglass fibers being spread—seven days a week for several hours each day—in the skies above their home.

The chaff is spread by pilots learning how to mask planes or send false radar images. It was reported that the military also has lead-based chaff, but that it is not being used at this time. Chaff was used by the military in Europe in WWII and, according to the GAO, had been used in training here at home since the 50s.

Once chaff reaches the ground, it breaks down into particles small enough to inhale. Though military spokespeople insist that chaff is not harmful, the GAO report concluded that health effects are unknown and more studies are needed.

Regardless, some members of this family are very sick. On May 23, after a hard rain the day before, they a noticed glittering substance and a pinkish-colored powder substance on the roof of their house. They then noticed the glittering substance on many surfaces, even the dashboard of the family car. Both substances were collected and sent to a lab for analysis.

Among the substances found to be in the samples were several that should simply not be there:

6 bacteria, including anthrax and pneumonia
9 chemicals including acetylcholine chloride
26 heavy metals including arsenic, gold, lead, mercury, silver, uranium and zinc
4 molds and fungi
7 viruses
2 cancers
2 vaccines
2 sedatives . . . Full story: proliberty.com

Cricket Australia unaware of Alleged Terror Threat to Cricket Team

October 9, 2006– The security of the Australian cricket team is under renewed focus today over reports the players may have been targeted for a deadly gas attack during last year's Ashes series in England.

A British Sunday newspaper claims that the London bombers who attacked the city's transport network last year initially planned to attack both the Australian and English cricket teams with sarin gas. . . I'm sceptical about the claims that Shehzad Tanweer, who we do know was quite a cricket fan . . . Shehzad Tanweer is alleged to have challenged Mohammed Sidique Khan, and they've had a fist fight over the possibility that they might attack a cricket game.

Now, it's just inconsistent with what we know about the psychology of suicide bombers, that they might quibble over attacking cricket players, but then not quibble about attacking commuters on a bus or on a train. Full story: abc.net.au

Comment: I doubt the "terrorist" who warned former Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu not to leave his hotel was a Muslim. "We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false"–William Casey, former Director of the CIA.

Carrier Named for Elder Bush

Newport News, October 8, 2006– Spraying the bubbles from sparkling wine across the enormous gray bow of the USS George H.W. Bush, the Bush family on Saturday christened the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier named after the 82-year-old former president. . . Full story: guardian.co.uk disc.server.com

Comment: "There is no historic parallel that can be drawn, nothing compares with the accomplishments of the Bush family. No dictator or tyrant can equal the suffering and destruction they have wrought on humanity, as they are not mere tyrants themselves but the makers and breakers of tyrants, the organizers and profiteers of war and death. They are not alone and solely responsible for creating the present day military industrial complex, however since 1915 the Bush family has been directly involved in World Wars One and Two, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, numerous CIA secret wars, the Gulf War, and now a "Never Ending War." The past four generations of this one family have had a hand in promoting and profiting from most of major wars that America has waged since the beginning of the industrialized age" (thepeoplesvoice).

In 1936, Winston Churchill said, "America should have minded her own business and stayed out of the World War. If you hadn't entered the war the Allies would have made peace with Germany in the spring of 1917. Had we made peace then there would have been no collapse in Russia followed by Communism, no breakdown in Italy followed by Fascism, and Germany would not have signed the Versailles Treaty, which has enthroned Nazism in Germany. If America had stayed out of the war, all of these 'isms' wouldn't today be sweeping the continent and breaking down parliamentary government, and if England had made peace early in 1917, it would have saved over one million British, French, American and other lives."

America– Land of the Willingly Ignorant!

By David J. Meyer

Jeremiah 5:25-31, "Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you. For among My people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he who sets snares; they set a trap, they catch men. As a cage is full of birds so are their houses full of deceit; therefore they have become great and rich. They have grown fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge. Shall I not visit for these things? Says the Lord: shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this? A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and My people like it so: and what will you do when the end comes?"

II Peter 3:3-7, "First of all you must understand that scoffers shall come in the last days, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant, that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 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".

In this issue we will examine a spiritually deadly condition that has overtaken our nation and the entire world. It is a condition that is described in both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. This present condition allows the Luciferian or Satanic forces of the antichrist New World Order to continually further their cause and to draw ever closer to their ultimate and final objective. That objective has been to gradually realign nations, economies, and religions through brainwashing concepts of globalism. This brainwashing is designed to produce a one-world population that is welded together by collective thought and manipulated by misdirection away from truth. It would not be enough to induce people to not think, but also to not care was the goal. The Illuminati conspirators have always known that the threat of fear and terror would bring about a spiritual and mental resignation on the part of the targeted population, and thus they could be controlled.

In the first Scripture verses above, Jeremiah described the people of Israel as being held captive by their own political and spiritual leaders, even though they knew those leaders were wrong and evil. Strangely enough, the prophet marveled that the people loved to have it so! The entire prophetic observation ended with a haunting question: "What will you do when the end comes?"

In the second group of Scripture verses above, the Apostle Peter describes the same condition that Jeremiah revealed and used the words "willingly ignorant" to describe the people of earth in the last days. This is especially true of the professing Christians. Very few of them ever talk about Bible prophecy anymore. One vital point regarding this serious problem that I urge you to never forget is that it is not the work of the antichrist to deceive the unbelievers of this Word! Satan already has the unbelievers right where he wants them. The work of the antichrist is to deceive nominal Christians. When they stop reading the true Bible, and when they no longer pray and fight the enemy, the first thing they lose is their gift of discernment. This is a gift that is given only to those who are actively engaging the enemy in battle. What follows is an inability to think for themselves and to understand the evil world they live in. The professing Christians then become like the characters in the Wizard of Oz with no heart, no brain, and no courage! The Illuminati and Satan are counting on that!

This world is in serious trouble as the remainder of this newsletter will clearly reveal. Bible prophecy is true and is being fulfilled before our very eyes every day of the week. Eternity is just ahead and you will spend it somewhere! I urge you to surrender you heart to the Lord Jesus Christ in true repentance. Do it now while there is still a little time. Your prayer will be heard in Heaven, and the Saviour will remove all fear and save you!

Sworn Liars in High Places!

Who is really running this present world, and why is it in the condition it is in? We know that we have reached a point in time when all officials in the highest offices are members of secret societies, which are all interlocked by one scheme in common. The Masonic Lodge, York Rite, Scottish Rite, Mystic Shrine, Skull and Bones, Knights of Columbus, Papal Knights, Opus Dei, and numerous others are all based on secrecy and operate in it. All of these are shrouded in mystery, and our Saviour taught us that the only reason for secrecy is to hide evil. In John 3:19-20 we read as follows: "And this is the condemnation, that Light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil. For every one who does evil hates the Light, neither comes to the Light, lest their deeds should be reproved." We also read in John 18:20 as follows: "Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing".

It should not surprise us that antichrist Illuminists hold all of the high offices in church and state, and at the same time, they are members of secret societies. We were warned that this would be the case in Ephesians 6:12 as follows: "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places".

Governmental racketeering has been going on for a long time, and the officials don't like competition. That is why they go after the competition and call what the competitors are doing crime when the officials are doing the same things, except on a much larger scale. Here let it be noted that William Casey, former Director of the CIA, reportedly said, "We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false."

We must remember that the economy and money system is the lifeblood of any nation. We also know that over the past eighty years some very powerful men have made startling admissions regarding the economies of nations, which would one day come under the complete control of the beast or antichrist, who would regulate all buying and selling with a number and marking system. (The mark in the forehead signifies one has accepted the doctrine of the Roman church, and the mark in the hand signifies fealty or service to the beast– Ed). In 1927, Sir Josiah Stamp, then President of the Bank of England and the second richest man in Britain, spoke at the University of Texas and said the following: "Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them but leave them the power to create deposits, and with the flick of a pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear, and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create deposits."

Henry Ford said, "It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning."

The late President Woodrow Wilson said, "I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated governments in the civilized world. No longer a government by free opinion, no longer a government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a government by the opinion and duress of a small amount of dominant men."

In May, 1983, the late President Ronald Reagan spoke in Williamsburg, Virginia, and said, "Our Federal tax system is, in short, utterly impossible, utterly unjust and completely counterproductive. It reeks with injustice and is fundamentally un-American. It has earned a rebellion and it's time we rebelled."

The United States economy is worsening continually, but as long as the gasoline prices go down for awhile most people don't seem to notice that there is a prevailing under-current of deterioration. Currently, our country is running an annual trade deficit at the rate of 776 billion dollars, but this increased by 68 billion dollars in July alone. We are becoming ever more indebted to other nations. We also know that many major corporations such as Ford Motor Company are making massive cutbacks and are suffering huge losses. All of this is happening because our political and economic leaders have a religion called Luciferianism, which operates on deception, and they are very strict in their beliefs.

A brief look at recent history reveals just how strict the Illuministic leaders are in their occult religion. We know that Franklin D. Roosevelt was a 32nd degree Mason and was elected in 1932 as our 32nd President. We also know that Harry S. Truman was a 33rd degree Mason and was elected 33rd President in 1944. Then Eisenhower followed, as President 34, and Kennedy followed as number 35. Johnson followed Kennedy as 36th President and Nixon followed as number 37. Here let it be noted that according to Masonic occult teaching, a 39th President had to be elected as the 39th President in 1976, because thirty-nine is the sacred triumviral number of thirteen tripled, and this number had to be applied on the 200th anniversary of our country in 1976. The problem was that Nixon was re-elected in 1972, which would throw the entire occult calendar off, because we would have a 38th President instead of a 39th in 1976. Before that target year arrived, however, strange things began to happen. Nixon's Vice President, Spiro Agnew, resigned because of some income tax trouble, and Gerald Ford, a 33rd degree Mason in the Scottish Rite, was appointed Vice President in his stead. This was the first resignation of a Vice President in the history of our country. Then, President Nixon resigned because of the Watergate scandal, and this was the first time a President of the United States resigned. Gerald Ford now became the first President who was never elected, and he became the 38th President. Ford was defeated by Jimmy Carter, who became the 39th President-elect in 1976, right on occult schedule. All of this occult effort indicates how devoted these politicians are to their occult religion.

Never in the history of our nation has there been such an utter lack of character and common decency among those who occupy the high offices of our government! On July 28th, 2006, Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and John McCain went on a congressional trip together to Estonia. While in that nation, representing our nation on official business, Hillary suggested holding a vodka drinking contest! John McCain said he was delighted and quickly agreed. McCain commented later on how much fun he found Hillary to be. McCain stated that he didn't remember details as they were a little fuzzy, but he did say, "Hillary is one of the guys." Both Hillary Clinton and John McCain are front runners for their party for the 2008 presidential election.

Truly, our nation is deteriorating fast, and deception is the modus operandi of high government. Even Senator John Rockefeller, of all people, recently stated, "President Bush duped the public on Iraq and the world would be better off if Saddam Hussein were still running that country."

It is a sad fact that the United States Government has not earned the trust of the American people but rather to the contrary. I am especially concerned about the many veterans who are being targeted by our own government, because they know they have been used and are speaking out about it. Our active military has been spread thin as they have been sent to 145 nations around the world. Here at home, veteran's administration computers have been stolen to help certain clandestine forces locate those who oppose the New World Order. Veterans administrations hospitals, likewise, cannot be trusted, because there are dark forces that would like to eliminate the large number of veterans who now understand what is happening and stand against the treason in Washington, D.C. Remember, these veterans are trained soldiers and are a real threat to the conspiracy!

The plans and procedures that are coming out of Washington, D.C., are not in the best interests of the American people. One example is the amazing and shocking story released by the Associated Press on September 13th, 2006. In this story, United States Air Force Secretary Michael Wynne made the following statement: "Non-lethal weapons such as high-power microwave devices should be used on American citizens in crowd control situations before they are used on the battlefield. Domestic use would make it easier to avoid questions in the international community over any possible safety concerns. If we're not willing to use it here against our fellow citizens, then we should not be willing to use it in a wartime situation. If I hit somebody with a non-lethal weapon and they claim that it injured them in a way that was not intended, I think that I would be vilified in the world press." Microwaves and other such weapons emit short, intense energy pulses that weaken and disable people and electronic devices.

A Day That Lives on in Infamy!

It was the late President Abraham Lincoln who said, "If this great nation is ever destroyed, it will be destroyed from within." I remembered that quote when we recently marked the fifth anniversary of the attacks on the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City on September 11th, 2001. I had been in the towers of the erstwhile World Trade Center numerous times and had studied it from the basement and from the roof. In fact, only a few weeks before the great disaster and just after God gave me the vision on July 6th, 2001 of the towers burning, I was on the roof of the south tower praying for the people of the magnificent city that lay stretched out as far as the eye could see. I had just walked from the basement of the north tower to the basement of the south tower, and I took special note of the basement area between the two towers with the yellow police tape marking off the cavernous abyss in the area that was bombed out in 1993. I wondered why they never repaired that massive damage, for nearly eight years had gone by. I came to realize that this dark cavern was a perfect base of operation to set up bombs that would take out all of the foundation and supports, which would cause the towers to fall straight downward, and that is exactly what happened.

I have absolutely no doubt that this Illuminati project was orchestrated by Dick Cheney and George W. Bush, and that it provided an abstract excuse for a "war on terror." This new war on terror would so horrify the American people that they would willingly surrender their freedom and forfeit their rights to privacy. This new war could be amplified in the press every day and would allow the government to set up an American version of the Gestapo, our Department of Homeland Security. The event would also start unwarranted wars in the Middle East designed to slowly bring on World War III and a final cataclysm that would finalize a New World Order, which would necessitate a one world dictator for global survival. We must remember that satanic solutions always follow manufactured problems. History is replete with examples of this!

I recently received a post card with a very haunting picture on it. It showed lower Manhattan at night with all the buildings illuminated and the twin towers rising high above the skyline. Behind the city was a massive American flag, which was rippling in the east wind in such a way that only thirty-nine stars were showing. The number thirty-nine is the sacred number in Freemasonry and witchcraft and indicates the power of three thirteens, which is the triumviral power of Lucifer or Satan. I am certain that just as the attack on Pearl Harbor was planned and perpetrated by then President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, who said that it was a day that would live on in infamy; so this attack will likewise live on in infamy. We must understand, however, whose infamy it is!

What I am now saying regarding the attack on the towers is what I have been consistently saying since the day the attack occurred. Recently, three astute university professors, who did intense research on the 9/11 attacks, have come to the same conclusion and have stated that it was an inside job performed by our own US Government. Dr. Kevin Barrett of the University of Wisconsin will be teaching on this subject even though the state legislature tried to get him fired. The University officials sided with Dr. Barrett. Dr. Steven Jones, a physics professor at Brigham Young University, who agrees with Dr. Barrett, was suspended and given paid leave for his exposé against the governmental conspirators. We must remember that Brigham Young University is under Masonic control, and that Brigham Young, Joseph Smith, and Hiram Smith were all Master Masons and "Worshipful Masters" in their lodges. Judgment Day will soon be here, and all hidden things will be revealed!

Evil Theaters of War!

The history books tell us that during World War II we had two theaters of war: the European theater and the Pacific theater. The word theater could not be more appropriate to describe all of these wars of recent history, because they are choreographed and staged. We must also remember that the people in high offices that want war are the ones that must pretend that they don't want it. These are the ones that tout peace and safety while they secretly plan destruction. Jeremiah 6:14 warns us of this fact as follows: "They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of My people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace."

Iraq has become a blood-bathed country due to our presence there, and the cries and screams from the daily atrocities are reaching unto Heaven. On August 23rd, 2006, thousands of US Marines were re-called to active duty to be sent to the land of slaughter known as Iraq. So many of our military personnel come back from our war zones wounded in many ways, but far more come back sick from the effects of so-called spent uranium. The first Gulf War taught us the dangers of that. In 1990-1991, we fought a three-week war in the Persian Gulf area involving 580,400 of our soldiers. The total number of our soldiers that were wounded in that war was 467. We must ask ourselves why then are there now 11,000 Gulf War I veterans dead, and why are a whopping 325,000 of them now on permanent medical disability? Thus, 56 percent of those who served have severe medical problems!

Evil spirits of every kind are found in the military, but especially those of sexual lust are found in the recruiting offices. More than one hundred young women who expressed interest in joining the military in 2005 were raped on recruiting office couches, assaulted in government cars, or groped en route to entrance exams. A six-month Associated Press study recently revealed that over eighty recruiters were disciplined by loss of rank or pay including: thirty-five army recruiters, eighteen Marine Corps recruiters, eighteen Navy recruiters, and twelve Air Force recruiters.

Another question that needs to be answered is: What have we accomplished in Afghanistan? Recently, the Associated Press revealed that Afghanistan is now the world leader in the production of opium and produces a staggering 59 percent of the world's supply. Afghanistan also produced 90 percent of the world's heroin supply of 450 tons in 2005. It was not like this before our troops arrived there, and Afghan government officials said it is completely out of control! We must ask if our government is secretly involved in all of this drug traffic. Such a thing is not unheard of. Remember the opium wars when Britain attacked China because China had outlawed opium? Britain won the war quickly and forced China to legalize the opium trade at the treaty of Nanjing in 1842. Britain also forced China to give them control of Hong Kong and six other ports so they could ship opium easily. Now that the United States controls Afghanistan, it is quite obvious what happened there. Think of all the blood that is on the hands of those involved in the drug trafficking and the related crimes!

Is the war on terror really a gimmick? It is interesting to note that on September 7th, 2006, France totally rejected the war on terror. We must also note that the powerful European Union condemned the secret CIA prisons operated by the United States, including the Bush Administration's disregard for the Geneva Convention and the torturing of prisoners by the United States. President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney remained rock solid on insisting that these prisons are necessary, and Cheney openly stated that torturing prisoners is an option they must have. In addition to that, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has put out an offer of a twenty-million dollar contract to hire a watchdog agency to monitor all news stories filed by US and foreign media so they can control the information. All news sources will be classified as either positive, neutral, or negative. I wonder how they will classify the Last Trumpet Newsletter! (And our Newsletter– Ed)? . . .

The entire world is in a state of unrest! We recently had a war between the Israeli State and Hezbollah forces in Lebanon, which lasted thirty-three days. Now Hezbollah is rearming for an even greater war. Meanwhile, the Israeli State has also made it clear that they are gearing up for a full-scale war with Iran and Syria. To add fuel to the already raging fire, Pope Benedict XVI recently made a speech in which he condemned the Islamic Jihad as "unreasonable, evil, and inhuman." The Pope, whether right or wrong, now has a serious problem. The Moslem world is now rising up and calling for a "Holy War" against the Pope and his followers. This is just the way Gen. Albert Pike and Giuseppi Mazzini planned it when laying out the blueprint for three world wars back in the nineteenth century. Pike and Mazzini were arch Illuminists who controlled the Illuminati conspiracy just after the American Civil War. They clearly stated that World War III . . . would be fomented by the differences between united Christendom and the Moslem world. . .

The Strange Work of the Antichrist!

The behavior of religions, especially fundamentalist Christian churches and Roman Catholicism, and society in general is becoming continually more abstract and even grotesque as spirits of witchcraft are invited in and set up residence and a base of operation. Much of this is due to the barrage of witchcraft training obtained from books and movies such as Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Chronicles of Narnia and others of that ilk.

In Australia, 11,000 Roman Catholic students in Queensland are being taught to meditate. The Courier Mail newspaper reports the following: "Children as young as five are practicing the ancient exercise of mental stillness by sitting, eyes closed, in their classroom and silently repeating a mantra." It should also be noted that the children sit in a circle in lotus position with their hands forming the yin and yang configuration!

The people of the United States have also gone berserk over tattoos, and the amazing thing about that, and something that even the wearers of the tattoos may not realize, is that the imprints are almost without exception placed at the points of the chakras of the body. The chakras are defined in occult yoga as the seven points through which the kundalini force travels and sometimes rests. The kundalini is the mysterious serpent power that coils in the chakras. These also correspond somewhat with the major nerve plexus. It has been common for people to develop deep pain, especially in the back, after being tattooed. This is a serious spiritual problem!

On June 10th, 2006, a significant portion of the Presbyterian Church-USA voted to allow their "Trinity" of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost to be changed to Mother, Child, and Womb, or if a congregation prefers: Rock, Redeemer, and Friend.

In England, an ecumenical organization known as the Churches' Advertising Network or CAN has been publishing posters advertising "Christianity", and they are nothing short of rank blasphemy. One such poster is a nearly empty pint glass of beer with a residue of froth that forms the face of Jesus. The caption says, "Where will you find him?" In another ad they depicted the Virgin Mary having a bad hair day when she discovered she was pregnant.

Satan has risen up everywhere with a major thrust because he knows his time is short. Speaking of the end of the Gentile dispensation Revelation 12:12 says: "Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you who dwell in them (i.e. the saints at the wedding supper of the Lamb– Ed). Woe to the inhabitors of the earth and of the sea! For the Devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time" (i.e. Daniel's Seventieth Week– Ed).

The recent popular Superman Movie popularized the symbol of the five-sided design with the strange looking "S" in the middle. A careful examination of this "S" reveals that it is a serpent, and a single eye of the serpent can be seen at the top. It is actually a cobra, which the Bible describes as the deaf adder. We read of this serpent in Psalm 58:3-5 as follows: "The wicked are estranged from the womb: they go astray as soon as they are born, speaking lies. Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely".

We also see a depiction of the deaf adder or cobra on the backside of the American one dollar bill. When held sideways, it appears there is a horn at each end of the bill. When held on end, the horn is seen as a cobra on each end, standing and ready to strike.

Truly, the serpent has been striking our nation, and the venom is making our erstwhile great nation continually weaker. The recent influx of countless millions of illegal aliens is a problem that will not go away. (Multiculturalism is the replication of the original sin on a massive scale, "as it was in the days of Noah," as Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:37). The immigration bill . . . now four hundred pages long and guarantees illegal aliens far more rights and benefits than people who were born in America as true citizens. (As do the laws under which the Church has been charged– Ed) . . . prayer is the only thing still holding us together. . . (lasttrumpetministries.org) eb444.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Wonderful Jesus; He is Lily of the valley, the bright and Morning Star!

I thank each and every one of you for your prayers in behalf of me and the Church. The final hearing in the case that has been brought against us concluded in the Federal Court last Wednesday and for a fourth time the Judge refused to receive our evidence. I expect him to hand down his decision in the New Year so please unite in the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous.

As Brother Branham prophesied, "the world is again falling apart," torn asunder by lies as in the fraudulent case brought against us by those Jesus defined as "so-called" or "self-styled" Jews (Matthew 23:33-35; John 8:41-44; Revelation 2:9; 3:9, etc). "Faith enables us to trace all of the sensible perceptions that lead us to regard everything we see as having no deeper origin than the things which are palpable to sense, material, and sensuous springing out of material, back to the unseen but omnipotent agency of God. Through faith we understand that the aggregate of all things existing in time and space were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which appear" (Hebrews 11:3).

Praying earnestly in the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus, the Word of God manifest in virgin-born flesh declared, "Your Word is Truth" (John 17:17). The world has turned from "the way, the Truth and the Life" of the Logos in this second crucifixion of the Word to follow the path of untruth or non-existence to perdition—death and annihilation in the lake of Fire.

Colossians 1:15-17, "Christ is the image of the invisible God, the first begotten before every creature: because all things were created in the Logos, things in heaven, and things on earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and for Him: and He is before all things, and in Christ the Word all things subsist" (John 1:1-3, 14).

All things are held together by the Word of God. Without truth there is no permanence and the world must fall apart as the World Trade Center was imploded by lies, and as our once Christian Western civilization is falling apart in the absence of the Truth of faith in God's Word that bound it together.

George II's Skull and Bones prescient nickname is "Temporary," but Christians aspire to permanence. Like Abraham who "looked for a city which has foundations (or beginnings rooted in truth), whose Builder and Maker is God," and the heroes of faith, we "desire a heavenly country. Accordingly, God is not ashamed to be called our God: for He has prepared for us a City" (Hebrews 11).

"I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year 'Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.' He replied 'Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God.' That shall be to you better than a light and safer than a known way"—'The Desert' by Marie Louise Haskins.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Let Me tell You a Story about House Church

I was 17 and strung out on drugs and alcohol. My mom and dad tried everything to no avail. I started studying with the Jehovah Witnesses through a guy I had met at work. I told a friend about it and he seemed upset. He told me they were having house meetings at his mom and dad's house and although he didn't attend, he would go if I would because he knew I was heading down the wrong road. I agreed but later tried back out because it was a Friday night, and I was already high on LSD.

His wife was excited that I was going because she had been trying to get her husband to attend. He was preparing to go to the bar when I showed up, so we went. Tripping on LSD I told the preacher, Brother Carl Baker, after the service that I was a Jehovah Witness. He said, "What I have here will make you a witness to a Jehovah Witness." Impossible as it may sound, I left that meeting perfectly straight and sober.

Anyway, when people found out there was a prophet involved, that was the end of the meetings. A few of us started driving an hour to Brother Baker's meetings on Sunday. Shortly after everyone started questioning this new doctrine and walking away. I told the Lord in prayer, if this is your messenger you're going to have to show me in Your Word, because there are many false prophets. He took me through Malachi, Luke, and Matthew. I mean right then and there while I was still on my knees. That settled it for me! I saw it as plain as my hand before my face.

Out of about thirty or forty people, I was the only one to stay. One day I was listening to one of Brother Branham's tapes on reel to reel; there were no cassettes in those days. My mom asked me who it was, and I told her. She said, "He baptized me in the Ohio river when I was a young girl." It turns out the Branhams used to live next door to my grandparents in Jeffersonville. Brother Branham's dad and my grandpa used to make moonshine together. I couldn't believe it. It turns out my grandma had a box full of pictures, many of them showing Brother Branham and his family. Mom sent a lot of them to Brother Joseph Branham.

Who would have thought, that forty years later and 200 miles away, we would run into Gods Messenger again. I preached to a youth meeting at Brother Baker's church. When I was finished a tongues and interpretation came forth and it said, "Yea, I say unto you I have called thee and chosen thee to be My child, as you go to your prayer closet from time to time there will I meet with thee, keep thyself chaste for I do have a work for thee in the days that lay ahead and that's Thus saith the Lord."

I know I don't need to tell you what time it is. I've spent the last thirty-odd years running from it, and the harder you run, the harder you fall. I thank God for his Grace; He is faithful even when we are not. Just telling it again lifts my spirits. He said, "If I be lifted up I will draw all men unto myself".

All Nine Nuclear Powers are violating Non-Proliferation Treaty

"As North Korea becomes the eighth confirmed nuclear power (Israel is not confirmed but considered the ninth) some of the blame has to go to the original five nuclear powers," writes Scott Galindez. "When the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty went into effect in 1970, the five countries that had nuclear bombs—the US, France, China, Great Britain, and the USSR—agreed to work to reduce and eventually eliminate their nuclear arsenals. Now, 36 years later, no disarmament talks are taking place between those countries." Full story: truthout.org

American Prison Camps are on the Way

October 9, 2006– Kellogg Brown & Root, a Halliburton subsidiary, is constructing a huge facility at an undisclosed location to hold tens of thousands of Bush's "unlawful enemy combatants." Americans are certain to be among them.

The Military Commissions Act of 2006 governing the treatment of detainees is the culmination of relentless fear-mongering by the Bush administration since the September 11 terrorist attacks.

Because the bill was adopted with lightning speed, barely anyone noticed that it empowers Bush to declare not just aliens, but also US citizens, "unlawful enemy combatants" . . . The bill also strips habeas corpus rights from detained aliens who have been declared enemy combatants. Congress has the constitutional power to suspend habeas corpus only in times of rebellion or invasion. The habeas-stripping provision in the new bill is unconstitutional and the Supreme Court will likely say so when the issue comes before it. Full story: alternet.org

Comment: The Supreme Court will neither forget its lines nor change the script. Clearly the 'hidden hand' plans draconian legislation for US citizens as foretold by Revelation 13:11-18. Presently 600 internment camps await non-trinitarian and other dissidents of the Babylonian theology and iron will of Rome and her image.

US Begins $42 Million Program to Bolster Hamas Opponents

The United States has quietly started a campaign projected to cost up to $42 million to bolster Hamas's political opponents ahead of possible early Palestinian elections, say officials linked to the program. The plan to promote alternatives to Hamas includes funding to help restructure Palestinian Authority Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah group and provide training and strategic advice to politicians and secular parties opposed to Hamas Islamists. US funds will also be used to encourage "watchdog" groups and local journalists to investigate the activities of the Hamas-led government and parliament. Full story: truthout.org

Comment: US "freedom and democracy" or as Uncle Joe said and George II confirmed, "It's not who votes that counts, it's who counts the votes." Why publicly tinker in Palestinian autonomy? Privatize their elections with black box voting: Accenture (a partner of Halliburton, and also a defense contractor), Diebold Voting Systems, Northrop Grumman/Diversified Dynamics/TRW (partners with Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), also in the defense industry), General Dynamics/Computing Devices Canada, Rothschild and Unisys (partners with ES&S), National Semiconductor Corporation, Hart Intercivic, Booz-Allen & Hamilton, and Perot Systems Government Services, Inc., are waiting in the wings.

Why Security Matters

Every email takes a perilous journey. A typical email might travel across twenty networks and be stored on five computers from the time it is composed to the time it is read. At every step of the way, the contents of the email might be monitored, archived, cataloged, and indexed.

However, it is not the content of your email which is most interesting: typically, a spying organization is more concerned by whom you communicate with. There are many ways in which this kind of mapping of people's associations and habits is far worse than traditional eavesdropping. By cataloging our associations, a spying organization has an intimate picture of how our social movements are organized—a more detailed picture than even the social movements themselves are aware of. . .

A Tale of Two Cities

Matthew 17:24-27, "While Jesus and His disciples were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men: and they will kill Him, and on the third day He will be raised. And they were greatly distressed."

"When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the annual temple tax (Exodus 30:13; II Chronicles 24:6) came to Peter, and said, Doesn't your teacher pay taxes? He said, Yes! As he came into the house, Jesus (discerning the thoughts and intents of his heart) said, What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take customs or tribute? Of their sons, or of those not of their household? Peter replied, From others. Jesus said, Then the sons are exempt. However, lest we should offend these little ones, ignorant as they are that I Am the living and real Temple (Matthew 12:8; John 2:19-21), and lead them to misconstrue a claim to exemption into indifference to the honor of He who dwells therein, go down to the shore and throw in a line; take the first fish you catch; and when you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel: take it and pay them for Me and for yourself".

We see in these verses the Messianic sign of Hebrews 4:12 (Jeremiah 20:12; Psalm 44:21) which identified Jesus as the Messiah, and a remarkable instance of the vast difference between giving offence to the "little ones" in Capernaum, who besides the tax-gatherers, might readily have taken offence under the impression Jesus had placed Himself in opposition to the temple. (Although He had probably been excommunicated from the temple in the second year of His ministry (John 5:18; Matthew 9:34) and by this time the temple had most certainly rejected Him). Yet He could not place Himself in opposition to the temple until after it had crucified Him, defiling its high priest and mediator between God and the nation, terminating the temple sacrifices and Levitical priesthood, and placing "the blessing of Abraham" in abeyance "seven times more" (Leviticus 26; Matthew 23:37-39; Revelation 8:6– 9:21; 11:15– 15:5) until three and a half years after the Gentile dispensation has come to pass (Isaiah 42; Daniel 9:27; Micah 5:3; Romans 11:25-29).

Jesus knew He was the Lamb to be slain in the Pascal season that very year, for the compound revelation of Daniel 9:26-27 with certainty established the year, month and day of His death as Moses in Leviticus 23:5-14 established the month, day and hour of His death, and His resurrection. The high priest and Levites read the same Scriptures, but without the revelation because they had rejected the prophet who introduced the Word (Isaiah 40:3-5; Malachi 3:1). Denominational ministers and their brethren, having rejected the prophet who introduced the second Coming of the Word and blind to the Word in this day (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7).

Beyond this we see Jesus exercising the "third pull" in the provision of the didrachmas (or double drachma), then instilling "mustard seed" faith in Peter, and we see the distinction between the Sons of the King and their servants.

Jesus humbled himself to devout prejudices just like Paul, who said, "I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some" (Romans 14:13-23; I Corinthians 9:19-23).

Romans 8:36-37, "As it is written in Psalm 44:22, For Your sake we are killed all the daylong; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. But in all this we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us."

Colossians 1:23-25, "I Paul rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for His Body's sake, which is the Church of which I have become a minister by divine appointment given to me to make the Word of God fully known to you".

Jesus had the Token on display and the trust we must exercise in the never-failing promises of the Lord in this end-time.

Christ and His Spiritual offspring are the true living temple and cannot be made legally subject to the typical services of the shadow which is done away (Isaiah 53:10; 65:23; I Corinthians 3:16; 13:10; Revelation 21:22). This is the great error of the multitude of non-elect in every age, ever zealous to create God in their image by bringing Him into submission to their man-made traditions and ordinances. Carnal legalists such as the Pharisees are kingdom subjects or bondsmen, and as such "strangers" who serve the Royal Household. However, "the servant does not abide in the house or in the temple, forever: but the Son abides ever" (John 8:35).Together with the non-elect Gentiles these will appeal at the White Throne Judgment and be separated "as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats." The one to salvation and service without the open gates of New Jerusalem, the other into the Lake of Fire.

Revelation 21:24-27, "the nations of those who are saved shall walk in the Light of New Jerusalem: and the kings of the earth (or elect) will bring their glory and honour into it (as a tithe of the increase of their non-elect subjects). And its gates shall never be shut by day, for there will be no night there. And into it they shall carry the glory and honour of the nations of the "saved" non-elect. But nothing unclean, nor any one practicing immorality and falsehood shall enter it, but they whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life".

Let us return to the scene in Capernaum where Jesus' friends are preparing for the journey to Jerusalem and the fulfilment of Israel's Passover.

Matthew 17:1-7, "At the same time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And calling a little child, He stood it in the midst of them, and said, I assure you, Unless you turn and become as little children, you will never enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this little child, is greatest in the kingdom of heaven; and whoever receives one such little child in My Name receives Me. But whoever causes an occasion for stumbling to one of these little ones that believe in Me, it were better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck, and be drowned in the depth of the sea. Woe to the world because of such offences! The temptations have to come, but woe to that man on whose account they occur"!

In a parallel account of this conversation recorded in Mark 9:33-50, we find Jesus had once again discerned the thoughts and intents of their hearts and was familiar with this disputation among the disciples.

The Messianic hopes of the disciples had been greatly raised by the miracle by which God had provided the tribute money, and by Jesus' explanation of His place and their part in the theocracy. Assuming it was already formed and seeing Peter honored by the miracle of the tribute money they questioned, Who among them at this time is preeminent in the kingdom of heaven? Jesus explained that rather than entertain carnal hierarchical ambitions, those who enter into the kingdom must be born-again in humility and simplicity of faith, which any thoughts of personal merit or pretension will hinder. Hierarchical pretensions are at the root of denominational traditions "that make the Word of God of none effect to the worshipper" as Jesus plainly told the Pharisees with respect to their Talmud (Matthew 15:1-9).

The little child, content with its dependence and insignificance is the natural type of we Spiritual "little ones." Philippians 4:11, "I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content." And "He who receives a prophet in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ receives a prophet's reward." Thus, he who receives a saint on the basis of his relationship with Christ receives a prophet's reward, which is to be a friend of God (James 2:23).

Mark 9:41, "Whosoever shall give you (the smallest service such as) a cup of water to drink in My Name, because you belong to Christ, I assure you, he shall not lose his reward." But whosoever causes one of God's elect to stumble, it were better that he have the large upper millstone hung from his neck and be cast into the sea. This is the fate prophesied for the Pharisees' second Babylon of Los Angeles and Hollywood, which will be thrown down into the sea in a catastrophic earthquake (Revelation 16:19; 18:21).

The sin alluded to is nicolaitanism, or pretended hierarchical rank over the "little ones," which Jesus hates (Revelation 2:6, 9; 3:9), causing them to be led astray by lying illusions and propaganda disseminated as truth by Hollywood and by Rome's false doctrines. Both have offended we "little ones" throughout the whole earth, and the ministry of Christ's end-time Bride is to disseminate the Message of the Prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7 which has restored the apostolic faith and finished the mystery of God (Revelation 10:8-11).

Here is the prophecy of the destruction of Los Angeles where the Laodicean Church Age had its beginning in 1906 with the Azusa Street revival. The end of the Gentile dispensation will be marked by a massive earthquake that will sink Los Angeles to the bottom of the ocean along with Christ-hating Hollywood and the filth with which she has polluted the whole earth:

Revelation 18:21-24, "A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with a mighty catastrophe shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard in you any longer; neither shall a skilled craftsman be found in you anymore; nor shall the sound of a millstone shall be heard in you any longer; and the light of a lamp shall shine in you no more; nor shall the voices of the bridegroom and bride be heard in you anymore: for your merchants were the earth's prominent men, and all nations were led astray by your sorceries. And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth."

Here is the Roman Catholic church, the first Babylon, whose Papal worship proves to be the worship of Nimrod and his wife. She will be rewarded double for her sins (Revelation 18:5-8):

Revelation 17:5, "And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."

Whereas the millstone was to produce flour to make bread, which is the staff of natural life, the two Babylons have fed the world with poison, bringing spiritual death. Thus the millstone is hung about their necks. The one will be cast into the depth of the Pacific Ocean, while the other will be hated by the world and destroyed by nuclear fire and the man on whose account these offenses occur will be "cast alive into a lake of Fire burning with brimstone" (Revelation 19:20; 20:10). eb445.htm

Bible Believers' Newsletter 446

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The hour is late and I believe our free weekly Newsletter and the Christian resources on our Church Website are the most efficient instrument for delivering the revelation of the hour worldwide. You can assist in the work of the Gospel by sending this Newsletter to your believing friends inviting those who are interested to subscribe.

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He who fears is not made perfect in love:" not born-again (I John 4:18). "In a society that believes in nothing, fear becomes the only agenda. . . And a society that believes in nothing is particularly frightened by people who believe in anything, and, therefore, we label those people as fundamentalists or fanatics" (Bill Durodie, Director, International Centre for Security Analysis, Kings College).

This is exhibited in the contrast between our main article, "And the Life was the Light of Men" and Death personified in the rider of the pale horse whose henchmen feature in "The Power of Nightmares," a BBC documentary proving their psyop on the abstract noun "terror" is a myth equally inscrutable as the hunt for a non-existent al Qaida, and from the same stable that promoted three holocausts each of six million Jews in the last century. Like these, the hoax of the war on terror and al Qaida can be exposed with impunity so long they are acknowledged as truth from the other side of the mouth. Thus the nineteen Arabs said to have hijacked the airliners on 9/11, but who were in their home countries and are very much alive today; continue to be cast as the villains.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

The World Enters the Dangerous Era of American Impotence

October 25, 2006– Since September 2001, the world has not experienced an Indian summer as politically hot as this one. North Korea effects its first nuclear test. Iran announces that, come what may, it will continue its uranium enrichment program. Iraq sinks into civil war and anti-Western insurrection. The Sudanese military regime allows deadly chaos to take hold in Darfur, and the UN cannot intervene effectively. In Afghanistan, NATO undergoes the bitter challenge of the Taliban and the opium lords' rebirth. In Pakistan, al-Qaeda is treated as the nuclear issue once was: deny, always deny; the reality is that the Country of the Pure is not even fulfilling some minimal responsibility in the fight against bin Laden's networks. In Lebanon, Hezbollah strengthens its grip on society and one does not sense even the least little beginning of disarmament of the Shiite Islamist militia. In Palestine, the youth becomes ever more radical under the banner of Islamist parties that refuse to acknowledge Israel's right to exist. In Russia, the Kremlin—without any hang-ups—tramples on the last fifteen years' democratic advances and overtures to the West. In short, the list of destabilization viruses suddenly emerging into view this autumn of 2006 is long . . .

By launching itself into the invasion and occupation of Iraq March 20, 2003, the Americans unnecessarily exited the deterrent posture that had nonetheless worked very well. Not to have solicited and obtained the UN Security Council's approval aggravated things still further: in the history of nations, individual mistakes have always been more deleterious than collective mistakes. . .

After the Housing Bubble Bursts

October 24, 2006– Compared with year-ago levels, nationwide housing starts are down 18 percent, sales of existing homes are down 13 percent, and new home sales are down 17 percent. Inventories of both unsold new and existing homes are at record levels. Prices have already begun to fall in many parts of the country, and seem certain to fall much further before the market stabilizes.

The housing downturn will almost certainly lead to a recession, and most likely a severe recession. Housing construction and sales directly account for more than 6 percent of GDP. In the recessions in the mid 70s and early 80s, housing fell off by close to 50 percent. However, the impact of a downturn in housing is likely to be more severe this time around. House prices had not gotten so out of line with fundamentals in these earlier periods, nor had housing wealth fed so directly into consumption.

Homeowners have been borrowing more than $700 billion a year from the equity in their houses. This borrowing has pushed the savings rate into negative territory for the first time since the beginning of the Great Depression. As a result of this massive borrowing, the ratio of mortgage debt to home values has never been higher. . . Full story: truthout.org

Experts create Invisibility Cloak

October 19 2006– A US-British team of scientists has successfully tested a cloak of invisibility in the laboratory. The device mostly hid a small copper cylinder from microwaves in tests at Duke University, North Carolina.

It works by deflecting the microwaves around the object and restoring them on the other side, as if they had passed through empty space. But making an object vanish before a person's eyes is still the stuff of science fiction—for now. . . Full story: bbc.co.uk

Comment: What is the purpose of this press release? Nicola Tesla's work begun in the early 1930s made the destroyer USS Eldridge invisible and moved ship and crew through time from 1943 to 1983 and back as reported in two fascinating articles on the Philadelphia Experiment spiritual-endeavors.org.

One of the survivors of the Experiment said, "We have had a two-tiered technology for at least a century, perhaps longer, in that there are technological developments which have been withheld from the public, and have been held in the hands of a controlling elite, if you will, for at least a century, perhaps a century and a half, because that technological base goes back to about 1800 or earlier. . . When the State of Israel flew 5 Hercules C-130 transport planes and 2 Boeing 707s from Israel across Africa to rescue 103 Israeli hostages being held at Entebbe airport, Uganda, all of their radar systems were operating at that time. None picked up the aircraft going across Africa. They hit Entebbe in total surprise, with no forewarning. They had systems for blocking out the radar paranormalplace.com.

Please read these two links which confirm and illustrate the words of Brother Branham: "They're going to find out someday that they're not seeing a hundred and fifty million years of light space either; they're going right around in a circle. That's exactly. You're going to find out one of these days that when you go to heaven, you don't fly off somewhere else; you're still right here too, just in another dimension faster than this. Right through this room's coming color. Every color shirt, dress, whatever you got on is eternal, laying right on records, going around and around the world. Every time you bat your eyes, it's right on record. Watch, television will prove that" (Christ is Revealed in His Own Word, p. 14:63).

". . . the very wickedness of the enemy, the very powers. . . We look at these snowstorms and everything a happening, all these pestilences, all different things, that's all caused by these interruptions of firing these bombs and things. They're getting things all mixed up here. And they're messing around in God's big laboratory to fulfill His Word. It's going to happen" (Invasion of the USA, p. 7:57).

In the spring of 1982 Dr. Peter Beter revealed the USAF Phantom warplane which is invisible to both radar and to sight. By using powerful computer techniques, Einstein's semi-finished Unified Field Theory has been used to design superconducting electromagnetic field equipment which can bend light waves. Built into an aircraft, this equipment creates a zone around the aircraft which light cannot penetrate: instead, it flows around and onward, like water around a boulder in a stream.

Public comments about the stealth program refer only to radar evasion, not to the far more startling capability of optical invisibility. Once again, this is done in order to limit discussion to a range of weaponry capabilities which will not raise too many public eyebrows. If the full capabilities of the phantom warplane were known, it would raise the question: why is something so radical needed?

The answer lies with Russia's still-secret beam weapons. The most important fact about the invisibility field of a phantom warplane is not the invisibility itself, but the protection which the same field provides against all types of beam weapons. Charged particles are far easier to deflect than light, so the charged particle beam is no match for the light-deflecting shield.

The Phantom war plane has just one major drawback. In a way its greatest strength is also its greatest weakness. When the invisibility field is turned on, incoming light waves do not strike the plane; instead, the light flows around the plane, as I have explained. That is what makes the plane invisible to observers at a distance, but at the same time the field prevents light waves from the outside world from reaching the cockpit of the plane. In other words, the pilot cannot see anything outside the invisibility field. He is required to fly blind.

There is only one technique known in the West by which a Phantom war plane can be navigated. It's called "Inertial Guidance", a technique first invented for ICBMs a quarter century ago. In Inertial Guidance, a computerized system keeps track of all the forces and maneuvers experienced by the vehicle. By adding these up over time, the system calculates where it is without reference to the outside world. For a Phantom war plane, the Inertial Guidance problem is very difficult. The guidance system must operate for as long as several hours while the plane flies to its target. That gives lots of time for errors to build up which would send the plane off course, but the problem has been solved . . .

The Phantom war planes which will be used are unmanned. They are equipped with robot pilots which can be programmed to fly each plane to a preassigned target. Each will be programmed for a one-way trip. The invisible robot-piloted aircraft will fly through Russian air space, invulnerable to any beam-weapon attacks. Anti-aircraft missiles fired at them will be unable to home in on them, and so the PROJECT Z planners believe that the robot Phantom planes will reach their targets.

Those targets are Russia's four Cosmodromes for rockets plus several Cosmosphere installations in central Siberia. The invisible robot planes will crash like kamikazes into their targets. peterdavidbeter.com

And the Life was the Light of Men

John 1:17-18, "The Law [with its rigid demands and merciless justice] was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No man (not Jacob, or Moses or any of the prophets) has hitherto seen and revealed God at any time in the sense in which the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, has seen and revealed Him; He [and none else] has made Him known."

Jesus Messiah is the Revealer and Interpreter of the unseen God in all that relates to our salvation. The greatest of all revelations is the supreme deity of our Lord Jesus Christ: the Logos that manifested out from God as His eternal thoughts, the Author of the world, Giver of Life and Light, the Fountain of grace and truth who manifested in virgin-born flesh as the beginning of the new creation of God-men has expounded God to men. Without this dignity, Christianity could claim merely relative superiority over the religions of the world, instead of being the absolute and amen.

The Logos pre-existed God's incarnation as Adam's kinsman Redeemer, the One who baptizes with the Holy Ghost and Fire (Matthew 3:11), the Bridegroom of the elect Church, the One who came from heaven (John 3:31), in contrast to all the other prophets, and is the only begotten Son. Men are said to be in the loins of their father when as yet they are not born and in the bosom when they have been born (John 1:18).

I John 4:12-13, "No man has [physically] seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwells in us, and His love is perfected in us. Hereby we know that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit".

Jesus is the beginning of God creating Himself a part of His creation (Revelation 3:14). His elect Church is the continuation of the same creation as Eve was the continuation of Adam and not a separate creation. Throughout eternity God will be worshipped in the form of His glorified Family—Jesus Christ and His Bride—because through the invisible marriage union the two are one. If you want to see God, look at Jesus Christ, and look at the Token on display in your Brother or your Sister.

John 14:7-9, "If you had recognized in Me the image of God from heaven [and the Absolute way to the Absolute goal], you should have known My Father also: and from henceforth you know Him, and have seen Him. Philip said to Him, Lord, show us the Father, and we will be satisfied. Jesus replied, Have I been so long with you, and yet have you not known Me, Philip? He who has discerned Me has become acquainted with the Father; how is it you say, Show us the Father?"

John 1:1-4, "In the beginning God was alone with His eternal thoughts which are the Attributes of the Logos. All things were made by the Logos; and without Him was not anything made that was made. In the Logos was eternal Life; and the Life was the Light of men".

God's first manifestation was Light when he expressed the Logos in the form of the Shekinah or "appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord" (Ezekiel 10:28). When He all made man in His image, he made all the men and women that ever will be, and we were spirit, for God is a Spirit (Genesis 1:26-28; John 4:24). We were Attributes in His creative mind we know as the Logos. He did not create your soul back there in His great thinking; He created or foresaw your theophany or angel, which is the appearance of your glorified being. And since His thoughts are eternal and they are real, they will come to pass in their designated season and time (Romans 8:29-30).

His Life is "the Light of men." Hence Brother Branham could say, "Then after you recognize the very Word of God was Eagle Food, then you left the other thing. You've then been formed into the living image of the living God. You heard from your theophany"—your part of the Shekinah or mystic Light (Who is this Melchisedec, 17:88).

II Corinthians 5:1-4, "For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven: If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. For we that are in [this] tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of [God's own] Life".

Speaking with a Brother on the phone one morning I explained that one cannot be born-again, and therefore a Christian, outside the Message of the hour. We must become written epistles of the present Truth, not impersonators of the Word for a day gone by. The Pentecostal Message that gave the new birth in Laodicea will not work in this day. John Wesley's Message that brought the new birth in the Philadelphian Church Age could only produce a foolish virgin in Laodicea. Noah's Message saved his family, but it would not work for Moses. We must recognize our day and it's Message in order "to make our calling and election sure" and confirm that we have representation in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Romans 8:28-30, "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. (That we should be holy and without blame before Him in love– Ephesians 1:4). For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. 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".

God placed each of Adam's sons on the basis of free moral agency with but one lifetime in which to conform to the image of the invisible God made visible in Christ Jesus and His offspring (Isaiah 65:23). We can achieve this goal by grace through faith which is the mind of Christ whereby He lives through us and overcomes today's battles by the Word for this hour. Our lives must reflect the image of the present Truth, but how can we be sure unless we are constantly growing in the faith of the Message for our day, and see that part of the Word living through us (I John 1:7).

No matter how dearly we love the Lord, and how well we have learnt the "letter" of the Message, unless the revelation and Life of the Message is manifesting through us, we are not born-again. God gave us the Absolute of the present Truth against which to measure our understanding and pattern our life so we will have certainty. We speak not of salvation and the foolish virgin but of new birth in the elect and wise virgin, so "Exhort one another daily, while it is called 'Today,' lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of unbelief in the revealed Word of God" (Hebrews 3:13).

II Corinthians 3:18, "With unveiled face we Christians see the Lord's glory reflected as in a mirror as we are changed into His image from one degree of glory to another, by the Spirit of the Lord".

Our omniscient, omnipotent God is Light. Not cosmic light, but the Spiritual purity associated with a clear understanding of godly knowledge and truth—faith or revelation. Christians walk by the Light of faith that cannot be detected by the five natural senses of sight, hearing, taste, touch or smell given us to contact the physical world which lies in darkness. We walk by eternal Life (John 6:63).

II Thessalonians 5:4-5, "You, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. You are all the children of Light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness," born of Spiritual understanding of the present Truth, the Word for this hour. We were expressed out of God as Attributes of the Logos or unchangeable Word, manifest in sin-born flesh in due season, and our soul quickened to God's own Life by Light on the Word for our day. Zechariah prophesied, "It shall be Light in the evening time."

Speaking of His parousia Coming in WORD form by the restoration of the apostolic faith and the finishing of the mystery of God (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:1-7; I Corinthians 13:10), Jesus said, "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. For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together" (Matthew 24:26-28). Eagles seek not the Man but Light on the Word—the Apostolic Light revealed in the East has been restored in the West to incarnate Christ's end-time Bride for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation.

We came out from the Logos of God, the Shekinah of Light to overcome the world by the Word of God and prayer and manifest His Name in our part of the Word thus proving we are His Attributes. Soon we will return back into the Logos of the glory Jesus had with God before the world was (Hebrews 12; John 17:5).

Brother Branham explained, "They're going to find out someday that they're not seeing a hundred and fifty million years of light space either; they're going right around in a circle. That's exactly. You're going to find out one of these days that when you go to heaven, you don't fly off somewhere else; you're still right here too, just in another dimension faster than this. Right through this room's coming color. Every color shirt, dress, whatever you got on is eternal, laying right on records, going around and around the world. Every time you bat your eyes, it's right on record. Watch, television will prove that.

When you're born, God sets a record on. It don't make . . . much noise for a little while, you know; that's the little baby till it comes to accountability. Then the noise starts. He starts saying things and doing things he has to answer for. And then when that life ends, that record or tape is took off and laid in the great big library of God. . . Now, how you going to get around it at the judgment bar? It's played right back in front of you: Every move you made, every thought that went through your mind. Can you see that? Now, can you see where God . . .

Standing here the other night and there'd been a man on the platform, tall, bald-headed man, real handsome looking fellow, strong. And he went out. . . The Lord had told him a whole lot of things about his family and what he should do. And he went out and set down. In a few minutes here come before me another man like that, but he had his head down. I couldn't make out, and I looked at the man again out there; and he wasn't him, because it was something else. And this man, I couldn't find him. I looked around, nobody behind me. I said, "The man is setting inside of those curtains there." And it was a brother that comes to church here, tall, bald-headed, handsome sort of a fellow setting up there like that. And he had his head hung over, praying, because he was just about to die with stomach trouble. He was going to get a pair of shoes. His wife wanted him to get a new pair of shoes. He said, "No, I don't have to get them, 'cause I ain't going to live to wear them." He was dying. And setting there (You see?), in that dimension. . . Hallelujah. God just moved over in there and said, "There he sets," just the position he was in. See what I mean?

Now, notice. And there is not any error in the Scriptures. Jesus, the Word of God, perceives the thought that's in the heart. The Word of God is stronger, sharper, Hebrews 4:12: "The Word of God is sharper, more powerful than a two-edged sword, even a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the mind." See? Goes way down into the mind, and pulls out, and discerns. What is "discern"? "Make known, reveal out." And that's what the Word of God does. Today we say, "The Catholic church is the Word of God, the Baptists, the Methodists, the Pentecostal, the tabernacle." That's wrong. The Word is the revelation, God revealed by the Word.

No, we could'nt get any continuity amongst medics, amongst scientists, different ones. If Einstein had only had the spiritual application, as he had the physical application, as he studied the laws of light and so forth, he could've told us something. When I heard his message on that great center somewhere into the skies, that ever contacted with that center, you could create earths, do anything—the power would be unlimited. See? He had seen that.

You see these little pockets going through the air they call "saucers," so forth. . . Well, we better leave that alone. "Hear how these people come up missing?" you say. Don't hear from them; they're standing there, and they're not there. That's the way the rapture's going to be. One of them would drop right down, and this terrestrial body will take on a celestial body. And they'll be hide, hair, or bones left. It'll be transformed in a moment of time, dropping right out of space and taking home that. . . We see all this going on now, and the Pentagon wondering about these lights, and mystic lights, and everything they're seeing in the sky. You seen they had one here in the paper at Jeffersonville this week and so forth, a mystic light saw. Oh, they don't know what that is. But listen, little children, it's going to pick you up one of these days (See, see?); don't worry.

You remember, Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Sodom. . ." What happened just before Sodom? God came down with some Angels, and they had an investigation judgment. Said, "I've heard the cry that is so sinful, so great, so I've come down to find out whether it's altogether the truth or not." Is that right? Watch, that main One that stayed with Abraham could discern the thoughts was in Sarah's heart behind Him. Now, you'd look around just a little bit and notice (See?); watch what It's doing, the same thing today. It's an investigation judgment. When after while the church, when it can stand that place and every seed has been brought to its spot, they'll be gone. They won't know what happened to them. One will be going one way. See? One will be going over to the pastor's house, and one will be going here or down there; and the first thing you know, they're not there. For Enoch which was the type, God took him, and he was found not. Come down to investigate . . .

The continuity, how that Enoch translation, a type of Israel being carried over in the ark. . . (through the tribulation like Noah). . . The Word of God is so perfect, even to the Old and New Testament is two halves and one whole. Right. Old Testament's half of It, and New Testament's half of it. Put it together, you got the whole revelation of Jesus Christ. There's the prophet speaking; here He is in Person. See? Two halves and one whole.

Now, we don't want to take too much. Now, remember, the Old Testament is not complete without the New. And the New could not be complete without the Old. That's the reason I said, two halves: one whole. For the prophet said, "He'll be here; He'll be here; He'll be here. They'll do this to Him; they'll do this to Him." And here He is, "He was here; He was here. And they did this to Him, and they did this to Him." I just preached on that a few nights ago.

Now, in order to study the Scripture. . . Paul told Timothy, "Study it rightly dividing the Word of God which is Truth." Then there's three musts in the Scripture. In using God's Word there is three things that you must not do. . . Now, you must not misinterpret the Word. You say, "Well, I believe it means this." It means just what it says. It needs no interpreter. And you must not misplace the Word. And you must not dislocate the Word. And if we would do either of these, it throws the whole Bible in a confusion and in a chaos.

Notice. To misinterpret Jesus in the form of God in a man you would make Him one god out of three. To misinterpret Jesus Christ being the Word, you'd make Him one god out of three, or you'd make Him the second person in a godhead. And to do that, you'd mess the whole Scripture up. You'd never get nowhere. So it must not be misinterpreted. And if you say that a certain thing, you put an interpretation on it and you apply it to another time or it's been applied to another time, you also make an incorrect interpreting.

If anybody misinterpret Jesus Christ in the Bible of not being God Himself, make Him the second person, or, one god out of three, this would upset every Word in the entire Bible. It would break the first commandment, "Thou shalt not have any other god before Me." All right. It would make the whole Christian race a bunch of pagan worshippers worshipping three different gods. See what kind of a Bible you'd have? Then it'd make us what the Jews say we are: said, "Which one of them gods is your god?" See? So you see, you mustn't misinterpret the Bible, for Jesus Himself is the Interpretation of the Bible when He's made manifest in the age that the part of His Body is being made manifest. If it's a hand age, it must be a hand; it can't be a head age. If it's a voice age, well then, it can't be a foot age. See? And now, we're at the eye age. And now, the next is Him Hisself to come. Seeing, prophetic . . ." (Christ is Revealed in His Own Word, p. 14:63-76).

Hebrews 12:1-2, "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith . . ."

The great cloud of witnesses speaks of the manifested Church Age saints in theophany—back in the Logos or Shekinah waiting for you and I to come to maturity for the manifestation of the Sons of God so they can put on their glorified bodies in the first resurrection. When they have been resurrected, one of the Laodicean saints whom you know will appear to give you that extra lift in faith, and in a few moments you'll unite with the "mystic Light" of your theophany and be changed in the twinkling of an eye to gather with them to meet the Lord in the air. eb446.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we welcome our new subscribers.

Please uphold one of our senior Message ministers in prayer for his healing as the Enemy threatens to steal him from family and friends. At a time when the "squeeze" is soon to fall upon his Church as it will suddenly strike all believers worldwide, whether saint or foolish virgin, the Lord knows our Brother's congregation is going to need his counsel.

The powers-that-be are bent on provoking fear by the climate change myth that follows AIDS, Y2K, "peak oil," SARS, WMD in Iraq and now Iran, Al Qaida, 9/11, 7/7, wayward asteroids, water shortages and war upon the abstract noun "terrorism" hoaxes. News reports say Britain has engaged Al Gore to frighten little children with this bogeyman Sir Nicholas Stern is presently peddling worldwide coupled with "carbon trading credits" to ensure every man, woman and child in the developed world pays for the air they breathe, and after the hucksters have scammed their commissions for marrying polluters to non-polluters, things will remain as they were except for the diversion of money.

This racket is a psyop to manipulate the TV-lobotomized majority by the ill-found fear of yet another "unknown," indicating dysgenics and auto genocide of the once Christian West. Longtime students of our Church Website and subscribers to this Newsletter will recall such swindles posited by The Report from Iron Mountain on the Possibility and Desirability of Peace" prepared by the Hudson Institute in the '60s. But we are not supposed to possess memory recall.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Major Step Forward for World Police Force taken in
Afghanistan as NATO will command 12,000 US Forces

"Arbitrary Power has seldom or never been introduced into any Country at once. It must be introduced by slow degrees, and as it were step by step, lest the people should perceive its approach"—Philip Dormer Stanhope, Fourth Earl of Chesterfield; House of Lords, 1737

At the 50th anniversary of the founding of NATO, it was warned that NATO troops could go anywhere in the world despite national sovereignty. At a time when North Korea has the nuclear bomb and while discussion for a global auto-making alliance is in the news, NATO in Afghanistan will now take over some 12,000 American troops-bringing the total troops there to 31,000. Putting US troops under foreign command began with Democratic President Bill Clinton. Now it is occurring under President George Walker Bush. This major NATO step towards implementation of the New World Order followed the 60 Minutes report that Henry Kissinger "is back" and regularly advising both President GWB and VP Cheney on a monthly basis.

The characteristics of a totalitarian regime were once suggested by Inonescu:

a compulsory ideology,

a monolithic party,

a monopoly of communications,

a monopoly of all means of armed combat,

a centrally directed economy and

a terrorist political police.

In A Study of Future Worlds, Professor Falk wrote in 1975 that "WOMP (World Order Models Project) accepts as self-evident the need to reorient American public and elite opinion; hopefully, this country can be encouraged to play a less domineering global role and to share its wealth and income with the world community on a far greater scale." He added: "To achieve this (better world order), central institutions would have to be equipped with police capabilities while national institutions would be substantially deprived of military capabilities."' Under the policy of gradualism, a creditor's New World Order is now openly being assembled and is implementing a World Police Force. No knock home raids will apparently be part and parcel of this new regime.

"The first thing and the last thing to remember is that collectivism is, by its essential nature, coercion—first by fraud but at last by force . . . Collectivism is . . . nihilism; resolute to destroy even the shadow of the God it claims does not exist; equally resolute to regulate man into mindless conformity with what the 'experts' tell him he ought to want. Collectivism is 1984 made flesh."– E. Merrill Root (Eric A. Samuelson, Conspiracy Scholars' Nook).

Bush moves toward Martial Law

October 27, 2006– Public Law 109-364, or the "John Warner Defense Authorization Act of 2007" (H.R.5122), which was signed by the commander in chief on October 17, 2006, in a private Oval Office ceremony, allows the President to declare a "public emergency" and station troops anywhere in America and take control of state-based National Guard units without the consent of the governor or local authorities, in order to "suppress public disorder."

President Bush seized this unprecedented power on the very same day he signed the equally odious Military Commissions Act of 2006. In a sense, the two laws complement one another. One allows for torture and detention abroad, while the other seeks to enforce acquiescence at home, preparing to order the military onto the streets of America. Remember, the term for putting an area under military law enforcement control is precise; the term is "martial law". . .

The law also facilitates militarized police round-ups, detention of protesters, so called "illegal aliens," "potential terrorists" and other "undesirables" in facilities already contracted for and under construction by Halliburton. . . On September 19, a lone Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vermont) noted the 2007's Defense Authorization Act contained a "widely opposed provision to allow the President more control over the National Guard [adopting] changes to the Insurrection Act, which will make it easier for this or any future President to use the military to restore domestic order WITHOUT the consent of the nation's governors". . .

Comment: "If anything happens in politics, you can bet it was planned that way." 9/11 was planned years in advance, as was the invasion of Iraq and just about every other major event the world has seen. All of history is pre-planned with the objective of Satan's totalitarian one world government, or the kingdom of Jesus Christ.

Although the United States has signed treaties guaranteeing "freedom of travel," if Uncle Sam gets his way, beginning January 14, 2007, US citizens will require permission to leave-or-re-enter the United States. Full story: hasbrouck.org

Brother Branham said, "There'll be a time where there'll be a boycott. For the mark of the beast must come. You'll either belong to the confederation of churches, the beast like it is in Rome, or you won't worship at all. That's what the Scripture says" (Hear His Voice, #58-1005M).

All Libyan Pupils to get Laptop and Web Access

October 12 2006– Libya could become the first country to provide every school-age child with a laptop computer and internet connection under a scheme supported by the UN Development Programme. In a £134m deal with One Laptop Per Child (OLPC), an American non-profit group, Libya will acquire 1.2m computers with internet connection.

Computer scientist Nicholas Negroponte, who founded the Media Lab at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is chairman of OLPC, which aims to provide laptops for children in developing countries . . . OLPC has also reached tentative purchase agreements with Argentina, Brazil, Nigeria and Thailand. . . OLPC was initially funded by technology companies, including Google and eBay . . .

Comment: Satan is the prince of the power of the air (Ephesians 2:2). This is a scheme supported under the UN Development Programme. Can you see how the power of the micro-computer and the internet can unite a diversity of non-Christian beliefs, persuasions, ideologies and cultures under submission to one world dictator with a triple crown?

GAO Chief warns Economic Disaster Looms

Austin, October 28, 2006– David M. Walker, the comptroller general of the United States warns . . . The vast majority of economists and budget analysts agree: The ship of state is on a disastrous course, and will founder on the reefs of economic disaster if nothing is done to correct it.

There's a good reason politicians don't like to talk about the nation's long-term fiscal prospects. The subject is short on political theatrics and long on complicated economics, scary graphs and very big numbers. It reveals serious problems and offers no easy solutions. Anybody who wanted to deal with it seriously would have to talk about raising taxes and cutting benefits, nasty nostrums that might doom any candidate who prescribed them . . . Full story: yahoo.com

Striking the US where it Hurts

October 19, 2006– If America ever goes to war with China, say, over Taiwan, then America should be prepared for the following "acupuncture points" in its anatomy to be "punctured". Each of the vital points can bring America to its knees with a minimum of effort.

I Electro-magnetic Pulse (EMP) attack
China and Russia are two potential US adversaries that have the capability for this kind of attack. An EMP attack can either come from an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), a submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), a long-range cruise missile, or an orbiting satellite armed with a nuclear or non-nuclear EMP warhead. A nuclear burst of one (or more) megaton some 400 kilometers over central United States (Omaha, Nebraska) can blanket the whole continental US with electro-magnetic pulse in less than one second.

An EMP attack will damage all electrical grids on the US mainland. It will disable computers and other similar electronic devices with microchips. Most businesses and industries will shut down. The entire US economy will practically grind to a halt. Satellites within line of sight of the EMP burst will also be damaged, adversely affecting military command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR). Land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles will be rendered unserviceable in their silos. Anti-ballistic missile defenses will suffer the same fate. In short—total blackout. And American society as we know it will be thrown back to the Dark Ages. . . America is in the last two minutes of the fourth quarter of the "great game," and it is behind in points . . .

Iran sounds an Awful Lot like Iraq

October 29, 2006– Four weeks ago, Congress enacted and President Bush signed the Iran Freedom Support Act, a resolution very much in the spirit of the 1998 Iraq Liberation Act. It mandates sanctions against any country aiding Iran's nuclear programs, even those to which that country is legally entitled under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

The new law got virtually no coverage in the congressional rush to adjourn and amid the controversy surrounding e-mails between Rep. Mark Foley (R-Fla.) and teenage boys serving in the House page program. It has been overshadowed since by North Korea's explosion of a nuclear device and the world's debate about how to respond.

But if the confrontation over Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program ends in war—initiated by this administration or the next—you can bet this law will be cited as proof that Congress was on board all along. Full story: truthout.org

Religion and World Government

October 23, 2006– The Rockefellers funded the establishment on December 2, 1908, of the Federal Council of Churches, co-founded by Rauschenbusch (Baptist) and Harry Ward (Methodist). In Congressional testimony, July 1953, former top Communist Party official Manning Johnson testified that for many years Ward "has been the chief architect for Communist infiltration and subversion in the religious field," in seminaries, divinity schools, churches, and in religious organizations. The Federal Council of Churches would become the National Council of Churches, part of the Socialist-dominated World Council of Churches.

The Catholic Church underwent dramatic changes with the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s. And on December 7, 1965, Vatican II document, Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, was published and pronounced: "It is our clear duty to strain every muscle in working for the time when all war can be completely outlawed by international consent. This goal undoubtedly requires the establishment of some universal public authority acknowledged as such by all and endowed with the power to safeguard on the behalf of all . . ." Then on March 26, 1966, Pope Paul VI wrote Populorum Progressio calling for "a new juridical order" and stating: "Who can fail to see the need and importance of thus gradually coming to the establishment of a world authority capable of taking effective action on the juridical and political planes?. . . Delegates to organizations, public officials, gentlemen of the press, teachers and educators– all of you must realize that you have your part to play in the construction of a new world order."

Sabbath and the Creation of God

The Pharisees accused Jesus Messiah of breaking the sabbath and making Himself equal with God (Mark 2:23– 3:12; Luke 5:1-11; John 5:1-18) yet He was the unrecognized Lord of the sabbath manifest in virgin-born flesh to redeem Adam's fallen race (John 1:3; Hebrews 1:10). The week was ever divided into seven periods as in the seven millennia during which earth was prepared for human habitation, the twice seven years of Jacob's service for Leah and Rachael (Genesis 29:27-28), and the seven days as in the account of Noah sending forth the dove (Genesis 8:10, 12). "The sabbath was made for man, not man for the sabbath," and when God rested on the seventh day He blessed and sanctified it as a day of rest for man's bodily welfare, refreshment of spirit and blessing to the soul (Genesis 2:2-3).

The Divine rest was not one of twenty four hours for God's sabbath continues and His work also continues. When the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill Him because He had done good works on the sabbath He said, "My Father is working still, and I am working" (John 5:17). The sabbath does not entail a cessation of all work but of servile and unnecessary work. God rested from His work of speaking His creative Word once that work was complete; thereafter, He was busy in fellowship with His children, revealing His perfect Will, and following the Fall, preserving and redeeming them that they may partake the Divine nature and mature into the stature of the perfect Man.

The famous archaeologist George Smith discovered an Assyrian calendar that divides every month into four weeks, and the seventh days are marked out as days in which no work should be done. Before the Law was given to Israel mandating sabbath day observance the sabbath was recognized in the double portion of manna promised on the sixth day in order that the pilgrims might rest on the seventh (Genesis 16:5, 23). There is however, no record of mandatory sabbath day observance until the Lord ordered Israel (not Jews) to observe it as a sign that it is He who has set them apart from the world as His Church or 'separated ones' (Acts 7:38; Exodus 19:17) to live holy lives (as taught in Newsletter 441; Exodus 31:12-18).

The "Church in the wilderness" fell at Kadesh when Israel rejected God's grace and Abraham's promise and the unbelievers were blotted from the Book of Life (Numbers 14:26-34; Psalm 95:10-11). Moses marched them to Mount Sinai where God put Israel under the curse of the Law to chastise and train the nation in obedience preparatory for the advent of Messiah. The rigid demands and merciless justice of the Law condemned sin but provided no remission for the penitent, yet when Messiah did come the nation clung in unbelief to their substitute animal sacrifices, and like denominational Christians today who reject His second or 'parousia' Coming in preference for their substitute creeds, Israel's works were without faith.

Whilst for their health's sake all men ought to rest one day in seven, only Israel was commanded to observe a particular day, and since their sabbath is determined by sunset and sunrise it cannot be observed outside the Promised Land and the covenant is without effect. The primitive Church at first kept both the sabbath and Sunday, but when Judaizing Christians wished to bring genuine saints under bondage to the Law and Jews became their open antagonists, sabbath observance ceased and Sunday alone was set aside for assembly (Colossians 2:16). Christians have no commandment to observe the sabbath, Sunday or any day as more holy than any other (Galatians 4:9-11). Isaiah 42:21 prophesied that Messiah would "magnify the Law, and make it honourable" as Christ expounded in His sermon on the mount (Matthew 5– 7), confirming Israel's Spiritual deafness and blindness, and in Matthew 11:25-30 explained that under the New Covenant the sabbath will be an eternal rest for the soul not possible under the Law.

The natural rest Israel observed was a shadow "magnified" under the New Testament. The weekly sabbath was expanded from one day in seven to twenty-four hours for all seven days unto eternity as the labour of seeking God's righteousness by self-works is replaced by faith in Christ's one work on Calvary (Hebrews 10). The sabbatical year which secured rest for agricultural land continues to be observed by wise and righteous men of the land (Leviticus 26:32-36). The judgment upon Judah for violating this law was the Babylonian Captivity, "To fulfill the Word of the Lord by Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths: for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfill threescore and ten years" (II Chronicles 36:21). And there were precisely 70 sabbatical years in the 490 years between Saul's accession in 1095BC and Joachim's deposition by Nebuchadnezzar in 606BC.

The sabbatical year has also been magnified in each Church Age as the new Message of the angel to the succeeding age rebuked and corrected the errors into which the immediate past age had lapsed, called for repentance and brought further revelation to restore and instruct the Body to press on the upward way. The seven sabbatical years or Church Ages of the Gentile dispensation typed by Israel's Pentecostal feast have all passed: we live in the holy convocation of the fiftieth day at the end of the Gentile dispensation, counting the days, weeks and months to the seventh Trump and that day of sweet release following the "squeeze" and the manifestation of the Sons of God, when we will be changed in the atoms to meet the Lord in the air. In that glorified form we shall ever be with the Lord.

The jubilee secured rest and restoration for the body politic. In natural Israel the jubilee prevented the accumulation of land and wealth in the hands of a few, and at regular intervals legally raised families and individuals out of destitution to competency, fostered family feeling and reminded all that Jehovah was the Supreme Landlord under whom their tenure was held, and the Lord God of Israel, who could not therefore become lasting servants to anyone else. The present world condition wherein resources, banks, science and technology, education and communications are controlled by a few mostly unknown Black Nobility families united to replace political and religious beliefs with laws of their own invention and enslave world population by money comprising debit notes payable to themselves, illustrates the nearness of the grand Jubilee and restoration of the Kingdom to Israel (Acts 1:6).

At a Washington dinner in honor of Robert McNamara as retired head of the World Bank, David Rockefeller made the following statement:

"The world that we have worked to construct is threatened. The gravity of this moment, when Mr. McNamara and others are about to leave their posts while a new administration re-examines American foreign aid policy, is great. If we are going to save the international institutions we have put in place, the moment is now or never, for the struggle between the old guard and the new is going far beyond the struggle for capital appropriations. It is going to endanger the new world order which we have based on the alliance between Wall Street and Washington."

"While we men of firms and banks organize international channels of economy and raw materials, the government is now building its own diplomatic and economic bridges between Washington and foreign governments. By our methods, our governments contribute to the stability and economic growth of the world, our multinationals benefit, and when it is necessary, they contribute their political support. Now radical conservatives are attempting to destroy all that in seeking first and foremost to serve the national interests of the United States" (Roger Rusk, The Other End of the World, p. 206).

Mr. Rockefeller was distinguishing between totalitarian world government by his oligarchy of plutocrats and corporations, and totalitarian world government by a Judaeo-Communist state such as his tax exempt foundations had financed in Soviet Russia, whose "Bolsheviks" had gradually been deposed following the assassination of their kinsman Josef Stalin. Rockefeller brought them to the US and assisted their rise to bureaucratic power. Too late he discovered them in competition with his strategy: having usurped the reins of power over the US Administration they were transforming America into a totalitarian state. Senator Joseph McCarthy exposed their underground works, Brother Branham prophesied the outcome, and Dr. Peter Beter explained their machinations in his Audio Letters. Those whom Peter Beter called "Bolsheviks," we now call Neo-cons.

The United States was once a separated people like Israel, which in its apostasy was taken over by the treacherous and accursed Edomites who were forcibly assimilated with Judea although the Lord God had set "enmity" between them: even Messiah dared not walk openly "for fear of the Jews" (Genesis 3:15; Matthew 23:33-35). Like her type, the United States in its apostasy forcibly assimilated and came under dominion to the same people whom God set at "enmity" with them (Genesis 27:39-41), and Jesus' children dare not speak openly "for fear of the Jews".

Erica Carle writes, "Those who wish to establish a new world order to destroy our national sovereignty and independence are merely followers of a destructive concept that has become the dominating idea controlling their minds and their lives. They are group dependent. They are not Truth seekers or independent thinkers. They are weak charactered subservient followers who need to be involved in group goals to give them identity. They are cowards who dare not face the future unless it is totally planned and systematized. And they are bullies who gang up to tear down whatever is not according to the concept that controls them. In government they are untrustworthy workers who use any advantages to work against those they are supposed to serve. Elite does NOT define them" (Sociocrats are not Elite or Liberal).

Both Paul (Galatians 4; Colossians 2:14-23) and Jesus (Matthew 21:33-46; John 8:31-37) distinguished God's nature-born servant nation, "brought forth in iniquity and conceived in sin," from Sons born of His Spirit. I John 3:8-10, "Whosoever is born of God does not commit sin; for His seed remains in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the Devil: whosoever does not righteousness is not of God, neither he who loves not his brother" (Hebrews 6:4-6). The Church which believed in the resurrection of Messiah very soon came to be distinguished from those who observed the "letter" of the law without the Spirit and bitterly denied the resurrection by the fact one attended synagogue on a Sunday in honour of the resurrection and eternal Life—the eighth day signifying the eternity of a never-ending cycle—while the other attended synagogue on a Saturday (Acts 20:7; I Corinthians 16:2).

Nominal Christians who observe the sabbath day are ignorantly denying the resurrection of Messiah and the coming of the Holy Spirit for regeneration.

It was not, as some say, the Roman Catholic church that began honoring the resurrection on the first day of the week rather than observing the sabbath day: Peter, Paul and the early saints were not Roman Catholics. The Roman Catholic system of false worship was not organized until the First Nicaea Council in AD325, hundreds of years after their death at the First Nicaea Council in AD325, and Roman Catholic doctrine is abhorrent to the Gospels and epistles they wrote.

In their missionary journeys outside the Promised Land, Paul and his companions attended synagogue on the sabbath as we read in Acts 13, 16 and 17, simply because this was the common rest day on which believers under the Old Covenant would assemble. There the apostles could preach the Gospel of the second exodus to call God's elect out from apostate Yahwism and Pharisaism into the Body of Christ the God-Prophet, a Mediator like Moses (Deuteronomy 18:15-18), by the baptism with the Holy Spirit. Since the revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963, God has been calling His elect out from the apostate (once) Christian denominations into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation by the Message of a Prophet revealing Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever, with the same Pillar of Fire, same miracles and same Messianic sign (Luke 17:28-30; Hebrews 4:12). The Word that declared the first exodus from a natural land of bondage to a natural land of rest declared the second exodus from a spiritual condition of sanctification by Law into the liberty of new birth and grace by the Spirit. In this day the Word that declared the second exodus also declared the third exodus, bringing God's elect from the temporal blessing of the baptism with the Holy Ghost back into the eternal land of the Millennium and the great hereafter.

When God divided His work of speaking creation into six portions He rested on the seventh dispensation. His rest from speaking a natural creation continues but His work also continues in a new phase—speaking preservation and redemption to His elect children. Thus, "when Christ had opened the Seventh Seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour" because the fullness of the Word or Logos of God had already been expressed by His holy prophets and the ministry of the seventh angel was to gather the loose ends of unfinished revelation into a contiguous unity of the fullness in the context of history to show the Bride her position in time and her place in God's Word, and reveal prophetic mysteries to be fulfilled prior to the Millennium.

Acts 3:19-25, "Repent . . . and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the [seven] times of refreshing shall come from the Presence of the Lord; and He shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached unto you: whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things (Malachi 4:5-6), which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began [that is, the fullness of the Word which is Christ (as in I Thessalonians 4:14-16), NOT the glorified Man, Jesus]. For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like me; Him shall you hear in all things whatsoever He shall say unto you (Revelation 22:17-19). And it shall come to pass, that every soul, who will not hear that Prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people." (That Prophet was Jesus Christ who foretold the prophetic ministry of William Branham that would forerun His second or 'parousia' Coming. His Voice spoke from heaven in 1933 when Brother Branham was baptizing in the Ohio River: "As John the Baptist foreran My first Coming, your Message will forerun My second Coming"). Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that followed after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham: And in your Seed (singular– Galatians 3:16) shall all Gentiles be blessed".

Revelation 10:7, "In the days of the Voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound his Message, the mystery of God should be finished, as He has already declared through His servants the prophets".

There has been no physical creation since man, not even extra terrestrials. Even Jesus Christ who is the beginning of God creating Himself a part of creation in the form of His glorified Family less than 2,000 years ago was expressed as the Logos manifest when time began (John 17:5; Revelation 3:14). John 1:10-11, "He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came to His own nation, and His own received Him not," for they saw in Him merely a man. God's work of speaking His physical creation has finished, and for the past six thousand years His work has been manifesting the creation foreseen in His eternal thinking into material form, and preserving and redeeming those He foreknew as laying down their free will as a sacrifice in order that they may perform His will. Even the new heavens and new earth will not be new creation but old creation renewed in conformity with God's perfect will and original conception in eternity.

Heaven has been silent since the opening of the Seven Seals because Christ and the sleeping Church Age saints, who are manifested Word, came down from heaven with the "Shout" of the Message that will bring His end-time Bride to maturity with "the Voice of Christ the Archangel" in her to speak the Word for the 'third pull' in the manifestation of the Sons of God following the earthquake at Israel's Seventh Trump (I Thessalonians 4:14-16; Jude 14; Revelation 10:1-7). Once the Bride is under pre-eminence and in speaking condition the Trump of God shall sound.

The Bible is the story of the redemption of souls by the threefold process of justification, sanctification and the baptism with the Holy Spirit or new birth, not their replacement by a new soul. God is redeeming this earth by the same process. It was justified and its past sins washed away in baptism by the Great Flood; it was sanctified by the Blood of Christ which fell on Calvary, and will receive its baptism of Fire for renewal following the White Throne Judgment. Earth will split asunder when it flies toward the sun; fresh lava will cover its surface and the hydrogen and oxygen of its oceans will separate, sending flames thousands of miles into space. In addition to this natural fire, the Fire of the Holy Ghost will annihilate Satan and his demons, leaving a renewed heavens and earth for God's redeemed.

One of our Sisters wrote to say she is looking forward to attending a regimental ball at the invitation of a handsome young soldier who is not in the faith. In joyous anticipation she had purchased the fabric from which her gown would be made to present as the most beautiful belle of the ball. When the Holy Spirit called her to consult God's Word first, she chose to sacrifice this worldly pleasure in order that she might display the Token of the Life of Christ in the beauty of inner holiness and remain in her sabbath (Romans 12:1-2).

Our sabbath is for Spiritual edification and growth into the image of Christ, and since "the mystery of God is finished," we rest from unnecessary works like presuming to interpret God's Word. As God said, "Remember the sabbath," we "Take the little Book out of the Angel's hand, and eat it up" to become one with the revelation of the Message, having "the Voice of the Archangel" in us to "prophesy the Message again about many peoples and nations and tongues and kings" in this holy convocation or sabbath of the fiftieth day of the antitype of Israel's Pentecostal feast just before the close of the Gentile dispensation (Exodus 20:10-11; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 10:8-11; Leviticus 23:15-21).

Deuteronomy 5:22 states, "These words the Lord spoke to all your assembly at the mountain out of the midst of the Fire, surrounded by cloud and thick darkness, with a great Voice: and He added nothing more" (Deuteronomy 12:32). Whence came the Babylonian Talmud, which Jesus said "makes the Word of God of no effect" (Matthew 15:1-9)? This so-called Oral Torah is not inspired by God but "something more" added by disobedient, unbelieving men.

Of the revelation of the Seven Seals which Paul called "That which is perfect" (I Corinthians 13:10), Jesus said, "Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he who keeps the revelation of the prophecy of this Book," that is, the Message of the seventh angel, William Branham, who said, "Seal not the understanding of the prophecy of this Book: for the time is [now] at hand" as "the mystery of God is finished" and Christ's end-time Bride is called to the marriage supper of the Lamb by the revelation of his Message (Revelation 19:9), which is the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, the "Shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16 and the confirming Voice from heaven of Revelation 18:1-4 (Revelation 22:6-7, 10). The "Time" or delay whilst Christ interceded for the ignorance of the Church Age saints "is no longer." His work as Mediator is fulfilled for the opening of the Seven Seals unveiled the perfect interpretation of the Word (Revelation 10:6).

Revelation 22:16-19, "I Jesus have sent My angel William Branham (Revelation 1:1; 3:14) to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star".

Now in the unity of the faith (Ephesians 4:13; John 17:21), "the Spirit and the Bride speak the same Word, Come. And let him who hears say, Come. And let the thirsty come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of Life without price. For I warn everyone who hears the Words of the prophecy of this Book, If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are described in this Book: and if anyone takes away from the Words of this Book of prophecy, God will take away his part out of the Book of Life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are described in this Book".

When God had delivered His Message to Moses, "He added nothing more." And the Lord instructed Joshua, "Be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the Law, which Moses My servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left that you may prosper wheresoever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you will prosper, and have good success" (Joshua 1:6-7). And when Christ had delivered His Message through Brother Branham, He instructed His end-time Bride not to add to or diminish from THUS SAITH THE LORD of His Prophet.

Brother Branham saw the Bible in a vision on August 7, 1957, and a hand came down and turned the pages to Joshua 1. Like Joshua we must be strong and very courageous and keep walking in the Light, for everywhere we tread and overcome is our possession. "Unless we suffer with Him we cannot reign with Him. You have to suffer to reign. The reason for this is that character simply is never made without suffering. Character is a victory, not a gift. A man without character can't reign because power apart from character is Satanic. But power with character is fit to rule. And since He wants us to share even His throne on the same basis that He overcame and is set down in His Father's throne, we have to overcome to sit with Him. And the little temporary suffering we go through now is not worthy to be compared to the tremendous glory that will be revealed in us when He comes. Oh, what treasures are laid up for those who are willing to enter into His kingdom through much tribulation" (William Branham, An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 117:1).

God's rest was the satisfaction of completing the spoken Word, which He declared, "very good" (Genesis 1:1– 2:3) then He rested from that labour and watched as the Word manifested what He had said (Genesis 2:4-17). As the Old Testament sabbath of natural rest sealed the first creation in innocence, so the New Testament sabbath of Spiritual rest by the baptism of the Holy Spirit seals the creation of God-men in perfection by the regeneration of our soul (Ephesians 4:30; Hebrews 9:12). The Father's rest after creation was a type of Christ's rest. Hebrews 10:12-18, "after Jesus had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, He sat down on the right hand of God; anticipating until His enemies are placed as a footstool for His feet. For by a single offering He has forever perfected those who are sanctified. And the Holy Ghost testifies this is so: for He had said before (in Jeremiah 31:31-34), This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them; and their sins and iniquities I will remember no more. Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin"—just rest in Christ's finished work as we grow to maturity in the Son-Light of the end-time Message for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation.

The Bible is the story of God unfolding Himself from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts into the flesh of His glorified Family. John 1:18, "No man has seen God at any time because God is an invisible Spirit; the only begotten Son who is at one with the Father has made known His character and nature." Colossians 1:15, "Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the first begotten of every creature".

I John 1:1-4, "We are writing to you about the Word of Life: He was from the beginning, we have heard Him, and we have seen Him with our eyes and touched Him with our hands. Yes, the Life was manifested, and we saw and bear witness to it, and proclaim to you that eternal Life which was with the Father, and has been manifest to us. Again I say, we are telling you what we have seen and heard, that you too may enjoy fellowship along with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. And we are writing to you that your joy may be full".

If Christ is in you the Token of the Life of Christ must be on display.

In His creative thinking, before anything was made that was made; God foresaw every man and woman that would ever be formed from the dust of the earth. In His foreknowledge He saw your stature, color of eyes, and hair. If you are His elect you were an attribute in His image, part of His Spirit. By His foreknowledge of the decisions we would make, "God chose us in Christ, the Logos, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love" (Ephesians 1:4). Likewise, He rejected those He foreknew would refuse to conform to the image of His Son and fall for the Devil's lie. Thus, before the children were born, God was able to say, "Jacob have I loved, and Esau have I hated." But each of us had to be manifested on earth in our designated and decreed season and time determined by the free choice of our parents foreknown to God, and then take our own decisions with His Word when it is presented to us since it would be unjust of God to make arbitrary decisions that would determine our destiny.

So the first man foreknown of God from the foundation of the world is the second man of flesh and blood with five senses. Those foreknown as His elect have their place in the Lamb's Book of Life whence they can never be removed and their part of the New Jerusalem. Those whose names remain in the Book of Life at the end of their days are the "saved," whereas those whose names are removed from, or as descendants of Cain were never in that Book of Life, are the lost. The world cannot become a better place prior to the millennium because spirits do not die, so whenever someone dies whose name is not now or was never in the Book of Life, there is one more demon in the world. But in the millennium the bodies of Satan's children will be in the grave, and with no bodies in which to manifest, the glorified bodies of the saints being immune from torment, the Devil and his angels will be powerless until the general resurrection.

Now we see whence demons come and how they have multiplied through the influence of Lucifer who once stood at God's right hand but misused his free moral agency, being uplifted in his heart. We are not insinuating the pre-existence of souls but explaining the consequences of man's free moral agency and how God being omniscient and infinite foreknew all things. He is not now learning, nor is He taking counsel even with Himself, nor is He at any time adding to His knowledge. Yet His visions of foreknowledge must come to pass, some to honour, and some to dishonour.

When a dying saint begins to break into the sixth dimension and sees and speaks to loved ones who have gone on before him, he is seeing the theophany or image of their glorified material body God foresaw in Genesis 1:26-28. This is the body that returned to earth at the opening of the Seals and will put on a glorified material body in its likeness at the first resurrection, a body not born of woman but created by God.

When the last saint predestinated to the PART-Word divisions of the Body was redeemed in 1963, Christ rested from His Mediatorial work in the office of Son of God and returned in the office of Son of Man to reveal Himself to His end-time Bride as King of kings and Judge, then Israel. The jubilee is the crowning of the sabbatical system, the ultimate fulfilment of "the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21); the grand Jubilee or release and remission ushered in by "the trump of God;" "the regeneration" (Matthew 19:28) which signals "the redemption of the purchased possession" (Ephesians 1:13-14) or full adoption (Romans 8:19-23) of our Pentecostal Jubilee.

Peter was speaking to Hebrews, but his Message was addressed to Spiritual Israel, "And all the prophets from Samuel and those that followed after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days. You [Church] are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your Seed (singular– Galatians 3:16) shall all the Gentiles be blessed" (Acts 3:24-25).

II Samuel 7:11-17 promised the "sure mercies of David" to his "Seed" (singular), with "rest from all His enemies in a kingdom and throne that shall be established forever" (Isaiah 55:3; Daniel 2:44; Acts 13:34). The Kingdom will be restored to Israel in the Millennium where Jesus Christ shall reign as David's greater Son with the Church as His Queen. Then in the renewed heavens and renewed earth, the "saved" will worship God throughout eternity in the visible form of His glorified Family, Jesus Christ and His Bride, the New Testament Church. Together we are the creation of God. eb447.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you could join us in fellowship.

The USSR was a "British experiment" designed to become the Fabian Socialist model for the takeover of the world by the City of London through the UN and EU. Research on Local Government in New Zealand by guest contributor, John Christian, explains the background of the Fabian Society of the City of London, and how it is working to destroy the middle class and return us all to serfdom under the Communist system.

The many links within the links in this Article disclose how Big Pharma always test new drugs in Third World countries, how the US Constitution has been manipulated, how the Sixth Vial of Revelation 16:12-14 has almost finished pouring out its curse, and why Brother Branham called our sham Hegelian democracies "all sails and no anchor".

The US election cannot reverse the imperial Project for the New American Century implemented by the ruthless Bolsheviks called Neocons. America is now the untameable venomous beast (Gk. 'therion') Jesus prophesied in Revelation 13:11-14, speaking like the great Serpent, exercising all the power of ancient Rome, and deceiving the world by means of its savage, unbridled nuclear power.

When one wants to master the world by force he first needs to take control of the American population. . . In 1991 David Rockefeller told the general assembly of the Trilateral Commission: "The world should be better governed by an elite. . ." Destroying the democratic process in America thus became the first step of the World War III program planned in the mid-nineteenth century along with World Wars I and II. It became visible in 2000 with the stolen Presidential election, followed by 9/11 and other false flag terrorist campaigns in which the US government is culpable.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Jews against Zionism

November 09, 2006– The Gay Pride Parade in Jerusalem is a Direct Consequence of the Zionist Ideology! The Central Rabbinical Congress of the US and Canada will protest the Gay Pride Parade scheduled in Jerusalem for November 10 . . . in front of the Israeli Consulate . . . in New York City . . . in Jerusalem, protestors against the parade are expected to number over 250,000 and additional local protests have been organized in most of Israel's major cities. . .

Spokesman Rabbi Joseph Dershowitz stated: "The Zionist made it their goal to replace the eternal Jewish religion with empty nationalism. They discarded the age-old Jewish hope for the redemption of the Messiah and replaced it with a political military achievement. They discarded the Jewish reverence for the Holy Land and longing for Jerusalem and the Temple, and replaced it with a secular, democratic country in which sin and immorality are defended as legal rights. . ."

Coincidentally the "Gay Pride" parade is scheduled to occur during the week of the Torah lesson on the destruction of the ancient city of Sodom. Rabbi Dershowitz continued, "And now, in the week in which we read in the Torah about G-d's destruction of Sodom (Genesis 19), the unthinkable is happening: the modern-day Sodomites are bringing their perversion into the streets of Jerusalem, with the smiling approval of the Israeli Supreme Court, threatening to make the Holy City into the next Sodom." Full story: jewsagainstzionism.com

Comment: Messiah prophesied of this day: "Jerusalem is a spiritual Sodom and Egypt" (Revelation 11:8; Luke 17:28-30).

Condemned Saddam back in Court

November 7, 2006– Saddam Hussein's trial on charges of genocide against the Kurds has resumed in Baghdad. . . He is accused of committing genocide by ordering what was known as the Anfal campaign on the Kurds of northern Iraq in the late 1980s. More than 100,000 people are alleged to have died. Full story: abc.net.au  truthout.org

Comment: Joe Vialls' investigation indicated this is another Saddam. History records Presidents Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, Bush II, and Prime Minister Blair were also complicit and guilty of the deaths of millions more Iranians, Kurds and Iraqis than the real Saddam. By deception they have made war on Iraq, and a mockery of the law. It is reported that before the trial of Saddam's double commenced the jury was repeatedly shown a Hollywood film of the Nuremberg kangaroo court, making this kangaroo court equally unjust. Had they viewed genuine film of Nuremberg or, say the Eichmann trial, the jury would have been so disgusted with the pre-trial corruption, they would have disqualified themselves.

The 'hidden hand' selects, finances, empowers and arms the Napoleons, Hitlers, Saddams and George IIs of this world in order to use the energy of their followers and nations to engineer circumstances that will suit their purposes (thesis). They also finance and utilize the energy of opposing interests (antithesis), and by their gold, loan-finance, and intelligence of both sides, draw them into controlled conflict that will advance the development of their pre-planned history (synthesis), which is ultimately Lucifer's totalitarian one world government (Matthew 4:8-9).

The 'hidden hand' has thus maneuvred the United States into the situation wherein either she must be utterly destroyed before she destroys the world, or restrained and brought under the hand of her allies NATO before she destroys the world. NATO now encompasses all ten toes of England, Europe and Asia Minor into which the Eastern and Western Roman Empire divided in AD376. With the exception of (once) Great Britain and the United States the members of NATO either did not support or are withdrawing support for Israeli/US aggression against Iraq and Iran.

Following the coming earthquake and Russia's successful invasion of the United States her NATO allies will "give their power and strength to the beast," in the revival of the Holy Roman Empire under whose sovereignty her United States image will be subservient by the power of gold (Daniel 2:40-45; Revelation 17:11-18).

A Saint asks a Good Question

Question: Are the four angels that are bound at the river Euphrates in Revelation 9:13-15 the same as the angels of Revelation 7:1-3 that hold the four corners of the earth so that the wind will not blow? Where is this River Euphrates?

Answer: Revelation 9:13-15 describes World War II which is the Sixth of Seven Trumpet Judgments upon the Israelites. For a detailed study on the four angels please review Investigation Judgment.

The four angels were bound on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day 1918—Armistice Day—in order to prevent World War I from devolving into the slaughter of a premature Armageddon, and loosed again in World War II (Revelation 9:13-15) to bring a persecution upon those Jews who impersonate Israel in order to force the Israelites back to Palestine so God can fulfil prophecy. As God redeems with Israel as a nation He cannot deal with them outside their homeland.

The Seventh Trumpet will signal the close of the Gentile dispensation, marked by earthquakes that sink Los Angeles and a 1,500 x 3-400 mile section of earth, ignite the Pacific ring of fire and split the mount of Olives, destroying the Dome of the Rock. This simmering World War III will then enter its "hot" phase with the Russian-supported Muslim attack on Israel prophesied in Ezekiel 38-39, followed by the successful Russian invasion of a crippled United States. Satan, who is cast out of heaven at the Seventh Trump, will incarnate the Pope and call for a confederation of the world's religions, which all have offices in the Vatican, and so restore world peace (Revelation 13:1-4). Satan's incarnation transforms the pope from the false prophet into the beast and he will accept the presidency of the totalitarian one world government Jesus declined, making an agreement with the International Jews and refinancing the collapsed US dollar. His actions in restoring peace and restoring fiscal and economic stability will bind the destroying angels, thus preventing them from killing the Israelites until the three year and six-month ministry of the two Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11:1-13 is complete and the 144,000 elect Israelites are born-again or sealed into the Kingdom (Revelation 7:1-8).

After the three and a half years of Daniel 9:27 and Revelation 13:5 have been fulfilled and the world economy is prospering (Revelation 18:9-19), Rome will abrogate her agreement with the International Banksters at the dedication of the new temple and the pope will force the mark of the beast, which is trinitarianism. Rome will martyr Israel's two prophets, whose "third pull" had rendered them inviolate during the reconfirmation of the New Covenant (Revelation 11:5; Jeremiah 31:31; Daniel 9:27). The self-styled Jews will convert to Catholicism and slaughter the Israelites they despise (Genesis 27:39-41) or side with the Black Nobility, Banksters and their Judaeo-Communist nations in retaliation against Rome and her Empire (Revelation 17:16– 18:20), gathering the world to Armageddon for the consummation (Revelation 19:11—20:6).

Question: Where is this River Euphrates?

The river Euphrates rises in the mountains of Turkey and runs southeast through the great plains of Syria and Iraq where it joins the Tigris to form a river called the Shat al Arab that flows into the Persian Gulf (Genesis 2:10-14).

Euphrates was the Eastern border and defense of the Roman Empire and signifies the limit of Christian influence. Its source lay on Israel's Northern boundary and it flowed through Babylon into the Deep, which represents the abyss. Israel flowed with the river into Babylon and apostasy. Apostate Israel was the birthplace of Christian faith but the nominal church floated into Babylon and is fast sinking into the abyss (Romans 11:32).

As Ezekiel's vision of the Shekinah leaving the temple signified God's departure from Judea, the drying up of the Euphrates signifies the departure of the Holy Spirit from Rome's once Protestant daughters. The nominal church surrendered her liberty in the Spirit by organizing after each revival; unable to receive further revelation from the Lord it formed a further Roman legion bound in its denominational city of refuge until the death of that Church Age and the Gospel trumpet to the succeeding Age (Numbers 35; Revelation 1-3).

With the drying up of the great river at the end of Laodicea, the church has become "the dwelling place of demons, and prison of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird." The days of Christ's mediation for PART-Word ended with the revelation of the Seven Seals, which brought Christ back to earth as the fullness of the Word (Acts 3:21: I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-7). The "Shout" of the Message of the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7 is calling the wise and foolish virgin out of Babylon as Denominational religion is no longer a refuge for the Man slayer.

As God allowed Babylon to rise up and destroy apostate Judah, He has permitted Judaeo-Communism to arise for the destruction of the apostate church. Rome is no longer secure from attack by her barbaric enemies, and must again resort to political and military force to reinstate her authority. The present apostasy among the churches signals the imminent end of the Gentile dispensation (II Thessalonians 2:3-7).

"The kings of the East" whose irreligious socio-political philosophy rules over the East are empowered through Roman apostasy, symbolized by the drying up of the Euphrates. George II, Tony Blair, John Howard and remnants of the "Coalition of the Willing" in the war against the abstract noun "terrorism" have ensured the West's defensive buffer of Iraq at the great river Euphrates is dead dry, "preparing the way of the kings of the East. . . Three unclean spirits like frogs," Fascism, Nazism and Communism, which all end up in Communism, "have inspired all the rulers of earth to gather the whole world to the battle of Armageddon" (Revelation 16:12-16).

Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming took place in 1963 when the revelation of the Seven Seals brought Him back to earth in WORD form as prophesied in Acts 3:21; I Corinthians 13:10 and Revelation 10:1-7, "as a thief in the night" (Matthew 24:22-28; Revelation 3:3; 16:15) between the Sixth and the Seventh Vials (Revelation 16:15-16).

The hour is late. All who have not answered the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, which is the "Shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16, the Message of the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, and come out of Rome and her (once) Protestant daughter churches (Revelation 18:4) will soon have their part in the great tribulation (Malachi 4:6; Acts 3:23).

Jesus prophesied, "This Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all Gentiles; and then shall the end come"—after the prophetic purpose of Daniel 9:24-27 is accomplished in His 'parousia' Coming to Israel in Daniel's Seventieth Week (Matthew 24:14). The great tribulation or time of "Jacob's trouble" will commence at the end of the Gentile dispensation—after the Gospel Light that rose is Jerusalem has been preached to the Gentiles and returned to the East. Revelation 7:1-2 signifies Christ ascending with the New Testament saints for the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the Sky, or is "taken out of the way, and that Wicked one is revealed . . . whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie: that they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness" (II Thessalonians 2:7-12).

The Fabian Plans for Local Government

By John Christian © April 2006

Isaiah 8:11-15, "The Lord has said in the strongest terms: Do not under any circumstances comply with the plans of Judah to surrender to Syria and Israel. Do not call conspiracy everything which they call a conspiracy; fear not that Syria and Israel will attack you. But regard the Lord of hosts as holy; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. And He will become a sanctuary to you, but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to the houses of Israel, a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. Thereby many of them shall stumble on it, and fall, and be broken, and trapped, and taken".

James 5:1-3, "Come now, you rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you. Your hoarded wealth has rotted, and your fine clothes are moth-eaten. The value of your gold and silver is dropping fast, yet it will stand as evidence against you, and consume your flesh like fire, for that is what you have stored up for yourselves to receive in the last days".

THE BASIS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Before I outline the "Communist" basis of the New Zealand City, District and Regional Council draft Ten Year Plan policies (to confiscate all freehold properties through rate rises and taxes) announced by most councils in March/April 2006), it is first necessary to provide a brief history of global "local government" in order to fully understand the real essence of what I write about.

Although the modern system of local and regional government can be directly traced back to Babylon, when in King Nebuchadnezzar's time (605-562BC), the city was divided up into ten distinct regions or districts ruled by princes, under whom were mayoral governors, captains, judges, treasurers, councilors and sheriffs—in modern times the system of local government that we have throughout the world is derived exclusively from the City of London Corporation.

CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION

The City of London Corporation is a Masonic, private, independent, sovereign state occupying approximately one square mile within the heart of the greater London area inside the old Roman walls of London. (See Sir Arthur Bryant, "The Corporation of London: its Origin, Constitution, Powers and Duties," and his Trilogy).

It either directly or indirectly, controls all mayors, councils, regional councils, multi-national and trans-national banks, corporations, judicial systems (through Old Bailey, Temple Bar and the Royal Courts of Justice in London), the IMF, World Bank, Vatican Bank (through N. M. Rothschild & Sons' London Italian subsidiary Torlonia), European Central Bank, United States Federal Reserve (which is privately owned and secretly controlled by eight British-controlled shareholding banks), the Bank for International Settlements in Switzerland (which is also British-controlled and oversees all of the Reserve Banks around the world including our own) and last but not least, the communist European Union and communist United Nations Organization.

The supreme ruler of the City is the Lord Mayor who is elected once a year and lives in the Mansion House. The City has a resident population of about 5,000 that rises to about two million during the week when people surge in and out each day to work. The financial centre of the world, it is often termed the 'wealthiest square mile on earth.' The full title of the Square Mile's governing body is the 'Mayor, Aldermen and Commons of the City of London in Common Council Assembled.' The Court of leadership consists of the Lord Mayor, 25 Aldermen and 130 Common Councilmen.

All of the giant, largely Jewish international banks and corporations in the City of London that control the world are members of one or another of the Twelve Great Livery Companies domiciled in Guildhall (or the Hall of the City of London Corporation). As the result of a 'gentleman's agreement' between the sovereign and the City merchants and bankers made many hundreds of years ago, the Lord Mayor is officially head of the Corporation and is allowed to operate independently of the sovereign. However, the wealth of the world held in the Corporation ultimately is the sovereign's, because, should the gentleman's agreement break down, the sovereign has the power to "rescind" the Corporation's independence. [Note Daniel 9:27 and the consequent Revelation 17:16-18—Ed]. The Queen sometimes refers to the Corporation as "The Firm."

While ostensibly the power of the monarchy appears to be diminishing as the Queen voluntarily gives her Commonwealth countries their independence and they become republics chartered to the United Nations, and she actively works toward abolishing the sovereignty of Britain as the UK is broken up and divided into regions of the European Union—her City of London Corporation multi-national banks and corporations are quietly taking over the world. All of the big banks and companies in both New Zealand and Australia are either directly or indirectly City of London-controlled.

In ancient times the City marshals and sheriffs were employed to ensure that all the "council" rates and taxes were paid to the City on behalf of the king. After the conquest of William the Conqueror in 1066, who first brought the Jewish bankers to London from France, the Jews developed written credit agreements for the king, (in French called "mort-gages"—mort 'death'-gage 'bond') and it was the marshal's and sheriff's jobs to ensure that all the interest payments of these "death-bonds" were paid to the Jews on behalf of the king.

During the reign of Richard I (the Lionheart) after the serious downturn in the economy as the result of the cost and tax impositions of the Crusades, many farmers, business people and peasants had defaulted on their "mort-gages" throughout England. As the result, the Jews promptly commenced seizing the commoner's property for not paying the interest, rates and taxes to the City and King. Subsequently, a rapid increase in hate against the "King's Jews" was initiated. This led to the massacre of Jews at York in 1190. New York in America was later named by British Jewish immigrant bankers in memory of the event.

For 100 years the commoner's hate against the "King's Jews" fermented until 1290, when, under pressure from the people, Edward III finally suspended the Mayoralty and reluctantly banished all Jews from his kingdom when 16,000 left England—and didn't begin to return until around the reign of Elizabeth I 1558-1603) when the enormous power of the City really began to accelerate with the opening of the world's first stock exchange in London—and has continued unabated to the present day.

[According to the Jewish History Books the Jews returned to England after the death of Oliver Cromwell nearly 75 years later. Cromwell had won the Civil War in England in 1660 and formed the first republic or "The Commonwealth" in England. The Jews of Amsterdam approached Cromwell in 1655 to allow them to return England but a decision was not reached. According to the Jewish History Books there was a competition between the Dutch Jews and the Portuguese Jews over the Trade with South America (Three Centuries of Anglo Jewish History VD LIPMAN P30). It appears that the Portuguese Jews may have funded the return of Charles II as the minutes of the Board of Deputies of British Jews were written in Portuguese For the first 60 years (Simon DUBNOC, Moshe SPIEGEL (translator) The History of the Jews: From Cromwell's Commonwealth to the Napoleonic Era). However this rivalry stimulated the formation of many trading companies in England including The Formation of the East India Company.

When in 1694 the Scots tried to emulate the trading English juggernaut with the ill-fated Scottish East India Company "Darien Expedition" the Scots may have been deliberately lured into bankruptcy to sign the Union of Parliaments. The Darien Expedition was promoted in Scotland by William PATERSON who is credited as being the founder of the Bank of England. However the Expedition was a monumental disaster and resulted in the Union of Parliaments between England and Scotland].

While there have been rare occasions when the Lord Mayor and Commalty of the City, as a result of their colossal wealth and power have been able to subtly out-maneuver the monarch, as to their cost, Richard II, Charles I and James II were to learn to their fate—generally speaking this has been the exception rather than the rule. Ultimately, whoever successfully rules must have the "will" of the people. Historically, in the City many although certainly not all monarchs, have ruled with the "will" of their subjects. But rarely, if ever, have the bankers, rich barons or knights been respected in this position. More often than not they've been consistently hated. Even when monarchs have done a poor job, provided they have still had the "will" of the people, the wealthy bankers' position has been extremely "perilous" to say the least.

After forty years of misrule by Henry III, the Lord Mayor, Thomas Fitzthomas (1261-1264) and the Aldermen defied the king. On this particular occasion the Lord Mayor ended up being thrown into the Tower where he died. Henry III vetoed nine Mayors in his long reign, and jailed another who died in prison. On one occasion the threat to the Lord Mayor's massive wealth and power has not come directly from the monarch, but from the people themselves. Mayor Nicholas Brembre (1383-1385) had been a king's man during the peasant's revolt, and was knighted by Richard II (similar to Sir Barry Curtis, Mayor of Manukau City in New Zealand today) for curbing the ambitions of his uncle, John of Gaunt. But Brembre had few friends among the common people, having deposed the popular Mayor Adam Stable, and when he re-imposed the hated Poll Tax which had caused the revolt, the mob turned on him. He was given a mockery of a trial and was then hanged, drawn and quartered. Understandably, therefore, from the time of Richard II most of the "Lord Mayors" in the City of London and others in the realm became very "cautious" and "hesitant" about any proposal which could be seen as an "unreasonable demand" to levy rates or taxes for the City and king. However, today these events have all but been forgotten.

From the time of William the Conqueror in 1066 up to the time of the Reformation the City of London Corporation was Roman Catholic. (The modern global "company" and "corporate" business system that we know today grew out of the old Roman Catholic dioceses in England which were the world's first "corporations"). During the reigns of Henry VIII (1491-1547) and Elizabeth I (1558-1603) when the Church of England, knights and barons took over the assets of the Catholic Church in England, the City then became Protestant. Gradually, as the people of England apostatized and turned away from the Protestant King James Bible and Christianity in general, both Roman Catholic and Protestant, in the late 1800's the City and Monarchy became rabidly Socialist.

THE BEGINNING OF SOCIALISM IN LONDON

The religion of Socialism is based primarily on the teachings of the pagan Greek philosopher and writer Plato, and especially his book The Republic, in which 400 years before the time of Christ he dreamed of a "World Republic" headed not by a president, but by a royal "world philosopher king" or "prince" (like himself of course!). Both Karl Marx and Hitler were great students of Plato. It is only inevitable that the planned reformed United Nations and EU will one day be headed by this "Philosopher Prince."

Socialism officially first began in 1880 in London when H. M. Hyndman founded the Rose Street Club which was dedicated to the destruction of Christianity in England. In 1884 the group changed its name and came to be called the Social Democratic Federation. Its early members deceptively called themselves "Christian Socialists." Later the group's membership included the Jew, Karl Marx's daughter, Eleanor Marx and her husband Professor Aveling. Behind the scenes the group was largely controlled by Engels, Karl Marx's partner.

Because Hyndman would not obey the orders of Engels, Eleanor Marx and her husband split off with William Morris the poet and others and started an opposition group which they called the Socialist League. On January 4, 1884, members and past members of the Social Democratic Federation, the Socialist League and others founded the Fabian Society.

FABIAN SOCIETY

The first meeting of the Fabian Society was held at the home of Mr. E. R. Pease, a member of the London Stock Exchange. Two of the leading members were George Bernard Shaw and Sidney Webb. Other early members were Eleanor Marx, theosophist and occultist Annie Besant, and author H. G. Wells.

The name of the society was suggested by the Spiritualist, Frank Podmore. He named it after the brilliant, elderly, third century Roman general, censor and consul, Quintus Fabius (Maximus Verrucosus) (303-203BC) who was made a dictator in 221-217BC and, with his small band of fighting guerillas and superior cunning, successfully defended Rome by defeating Hannibal's much bigger and mighty Carthaginian army through "gradualism" and "terrorism" during the time of the second Punic War.

Initially he kept to the hills and cunningly hampered the enemy's progress by cutting off their food and supply lines with "delaying tactics" until Rome could assemble enough men to defend the city successfully. During the war, his slow, "gradual," delaying tactics were greatly disapproved of by his soldiers and the civilians and earned him the name of 'Cunctator'—the 'Delayer.' But later, after the triumph, his skill and wisdom was highly appreciated. He died in his 100th year in 203BC.

Beatrice Webb's Fabian windowFabian Socialism is a "mixture" of Fascism, Nazism, Marxism and Communism all bundled together. [Brother Branham said, "Thirty-three years ago, when Nazism, Fascism, and Communism was rising, I said, "I speak in the Name of the Lord. They'll all wind up in communism" (The Voice of God in this Last Days, p. 10:53); These are the three unclean spirits like frogs that come out of the mouth of the Dragon which was Roman Catholicism which raised up through Jews' rejection of Christ, and out of the mouth of the beast, the sleeping virgin's once Protestant image of the World Council of Churches (Revelation 13:11-15), and out of the mouth of the false prophet, which is popery, causing the kings of the earth and of the whole world to gather them together to Armageddon in our day (Thy House, #61-0808; Revelation 16:12-16)]. However, it is much more deadly because it is far more clever and subtle. The only difference between Fabian Socialism and Communism is that Communists take your house by directly sending in the "secret police" to knock your front door down—Fabian Socialists do it much more subtly and cleverly—by "gradually" taking your individual rights away, by "gradually" increasing property taxes and rates, and finally, when you can't pay them, they send in their regional "council tax inspectors" to take your house away—but the end result is the same. British PM Tony Blair and President George Bush Junior's globalist "war on terror" is a classic Fabian Socialist strategy.

The philosophy of the Fabian Society was written in 1887 and included the statement: "The Fabian Society acknowledges the principal tenet of Marxism the abolition of private property etc." (Of course this does not apply to the elect oligarchy at the top that end up owning the lot!). Sidney and Beatrice Webb published a book of 1,143 pages in defense of Bolshevism. It was entitled Soviet Communism: A New Civilization. In April 1952 the Webbs were exposed before a US Senate Committee on the Judiciary when Soviet Colonel I. M. Bogolepov, a former Red Army officer, stated that the entire text had been prepared by himself in the Soviet Foreign Office. Appropriately, the defiant coat of arms of the Fabian Society (commissioned by author/playwright co-founder George Bernard Shaw) today (now archived) is a "wolf in sheep's clothing." Until recently it also appeared on the Fabian glass window (now removed) in the Beatrice Webb House at Dorking, Surrey.

Today the Fabian Society is among other things the intellectual wing of the British Labour Party. Before Tony Blair became British Prime Minister in May 1997, he was Chairman of the Fabian Society. Since the 1997 British general election there have been around 200 Fabian MP's in the House of Commons, some of whom have formed almost entire Labour Cabinets including Gordon Brown, Robin Cook, Jack Straw, David Blunkett, Peter Hain, Patricia Hewitt, John Reid, Ruth Kelly, Alan Milburn and Clare Short.

Headed by Tony Blair, Fabians now dominate the entire British government. They are resident in all parties and sit on all important select committees, commissions and organizations allied to the government. A good web-site on the subject is: www.lindsayjenkins.com/

The Fabian Society literally controls the European Union. German-born Gisela Stuart, the Labour MP for Birmingham Edgbaston since 1997, and member of the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Select Committee, was one of two House of Commons' Representatives on the European Convention and a member of the Presidium of the Convention on the Future of Europe. The Presidium was the drafting body that created the draft Constitution for Europe. In her book, The Making of Europe's Constitution, published in December 2003 by the Fabian Society, p. 20-21, Gisela writes:

"In the early months, the Presidium members would meet in a small room in the Justus Lipsius Building some fifteen minute walk from the European Parliament. Attendance was limited to the thirteen members, the Secretary General Sir John Kerr, his deputy and the press officer. Sir John Kerr, a former Permanent Secretary of the British Foreign Office, conducted the proceedings inside the Presidium and in the plenary sessions of the Convention with deft diplomatic skill as might be expected from someone who John Major called 'Machiavelli' in his autobiography. The best description of his talents I heard was: 'When Kerr comes up to you and asks for the time, you wonder why me and why now?'

On several occasions, we would retreat to the Val Duchess—a small palace used by the Belgian foreign minister. It was at one of the dinners at Val Duchess that the skeleton of the draft constitution was given to members of the presidium in sealed brown envelopes the weekend before the public presentation. We were not allowed to take the documents away with us. Just precisely who drafted the skeleton, and when, is still unclear to me, but I gather much of the work was done by Valery Giscard d'Estaing and Sir John Kerr over the summer. There was little time for informed discussion, and even less scope for changes to be made."

Today the Labour Parties in both New Zealand and Australia are closely affiliated to the Fabian Society in London. When Australian Labour Party Prime Minister Bob Hawke (a Rhodes Scholar, was guest of honour at the Fabian Society's Centenary Commemoration Dinner in Melbourne on May 18, 1984, he said: "I gladly acknowledge the debt of my own government to Fabianism. Earlier I dealt at some length with the principle of the inevitability of 'gradualness.'

There is another important idea; a method more than a principle—which becomes closely associated with Fabianism. Sydney Webb called it 'permeation.' Today it would be called 'consensus.' Webb put it this way. "Most reformers think that all they have to do in a political democracy is to obtain a majority. This is a profound mistake. What has to be changed is not only the vote that is cast, but also the mental climate in which Parliament and Government both live and work. That I find to be an accurate description of the approach I and my colleagues have tried to bring to the affairs of the nation in our first term of office."

In June 2001, at the Federal Government joint standing committee on treaties inquiry into whether Australia should support a statute of the UN International Criminal Court which would affect the "sovereignty" of all Australians, when criticized by an Australian patriotic group, Labour Party Senator Chris Schacht, sarcastically exclaimed he had been a member of the Fabian Society for 20 years—and further, said; "You probably were not aware that us Fabians have taken over the CIA, KGB, M15, ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organization), IMF, the World Bank and many other organizations."

That is why Tony Blair, as part of the 2006 Commonwealth Games Closing Celebrations in Melbourne on March 26, was also invited by Labour officials and business leaders to speak to the Australian Parliament in Canberra on March 27 about his Fabian "war against terror," and "intelligence matters" where he said; "The war against terror was as much a battle about values as it was about arms."

And why, after the Australian Government meeting, he flew directly to New Zealand on March 28 to speak about the same subject at a meeting in the Auckland Town Hall, hosted by the New Zealand Labour Party Prime Minister, Helen Clark, and the Auckland Regional Chamber of Commerce and Industry—after which he participated (by video-link) in the International Climate Change Conference in Wellington on March 29, and later discussed with Prime Minister Helen Clark his (Fabian Society) "initiative to set up a unit in the NZ public service to enable their respective Labour Governments to co-operate more closely on policy development" (NZ Herald, March 28, 2006 p. A3) and on "security/intelligence matters" as communist China is brought into the fold.

In the last century, members of the British Fabian Society dynastic banking families in the City of London financed the Communist takeover of Russia. Trotsky in his biography refers to some of the loans from these British financiers going back as far as 1907. [Lenin and Trotsky were required to place MI6 operatives in key positions during the Russian Revolution– Ed]. By 1917 the major subsidies and funding for the Bolshevik Revolution were co-ordinated and arranged by Sir George Buchanan and Lord Alfred Milner. The Communist system in Russia was a "British experiment" designed ultimately to become the Fabian Socialist model for the British takeover of the world through the UN and EU.

FABIAN SOCIETY "FIVE YEAR PLAN"

The British plan to take over the world and bring in a "New World Order" began with the teachings of John Ruskin and Cecil Rhodes at Oxford University. Rhodes in one of his wills in 1877 left his vast fortune to Lord Nathan Rothschild as trustee to set up the Rhodes Scholarship Program at Oxford to indoctrinate promising young graduates for the purpose, and also establish a secret society for leading business and banking leaders around the world who would work for the City to bring in their Socialist world government. Rothschild appointed Lord Alfred Milner to implement the plan. At first the society was called Milner's Kindergarten, then in 1909 it came to be called The Round table. It was to work closely with the London School of Economics founded in 1894 by Fabian Socialist leader Sidney Webb (Lord Passfield). [However see The Pilgrim Society, founded in 1918].

Today former Rhodes Scholars (like Bill Clinton), Fabian Business Round Table members, and graduates from the London School of Economics (the primary Fabian Socialist training school in the world) dominate the global banking, business and political systems in every country.

The British Fabian Society plan to take over the world by the City of London financial community was first published in a book entitled All These Things by a New Zealand author and journalist, A. N. Field. The book was first published in 1936 by Omni Publications in the United States (and censored in New Zealand). The document, called "Freedom and Planning" was secretly circulated in 1932 by the inner councils of the members of the Political Economic Plan, otherwise known as "P.E.P." in London. The then chairman of the organization was a City of London Jew, Israel Moses Sieff, who was the reputed author of the plan. The headquarters of P.E.P. were at 16 Queen Anne's Gate, London. Mr. Sieff was also chairman and financier of Marks and Spencer's' chain stores and vice-president of the British Zionist Society.

Centered around City of London Jewry's international financiers in the Bank of England subsidiary, the Bankers Industrial Development Company, the essence of the document "Freedom and Planning" was (and still is) to gradually "Sovietize" the world based on their "Five Year Plan" inaugurated in Moscow in 1927-28 in the Soviet Union. Basically the plan involved the subtle transfer of the entire productive capacity of each country throughout the world into a series of great "State-owned" departments, which would then be "corporatized", then "privatized" to City of London Corporation International banks and corporations which they control.

Individual property ownership would be severely restricted, with most of the land, sea, fisheries, rivers, lakes, ports, railways, communications, media, roads, electricity, energy, food, water, waste management, housing, farms, commercial property, schools, hospitals, police, social welfare, Inland Revenue etc. transferred into statutory corporations, companies or land trusts which indirectly would be owned by City of London banks. The "peasants" would still be allowed to own their own clothes, and small assets like furniture, cars and boats etc., but the main assets of each country would be owned by their multi-national unions and banks.

In essence the City of London Corporation would become the "One World Earth Corporation" and would privately own the world. Similar to the experiment carried out in the USSR, the whole world would eventually be transferred into a Communist "United Nations" World Soviet Socialist Republic, where each country would be "regionalized" and ruled through "Regional Councils" through a United Nations dictatorship called a "Parliamentary Assembly" which would be just another name for a Soviet "Central Committee"—and all independent, sovereign, national governments would be totally abolished.

FABIAN SOCIETY PRIVATIZATION OF THE WORLD

As the result of the P.E.P. Plan originally formulated in 1932, right now every country's "State assets" (owned in trust by the State on behalf of the people) are being frantically "privatized" by City of London-controlled banks and corporations primarily under the directions of two leading Fabian Socialist writers—Sir Roger Douglas and John Redwood.

Sir Roger Douglas's book Unfinished Business and John Redwood's book Public Enterprise in Crisis are the primary handbooks being used by central and local government finance ministers and officers all around the world to sell off each nation's "family silver" and State assets—with the more "sensitive" public assets being transferred into Fascist-type Public-Private Partnerships (PPP's) which are designed to make the public masses and peasantry "think" that they have some degree of control—when in reality they have none as the real ownership of the assets are held by the City of London banks and corporations who fund them.

Until relatively recently, John Redwood was head of N. M. Rothschild & Sons London global Overseas Privatization Unit that is coordinating the entire global privatization process. Sir Roger has been contracted as a consultant by City of London Banks, the World Bank and others to advise on national privatization programs as well.

Fabian Society "Regionalization" of the World is through UN and EU Control of Regional and City Councils. All of the countries in the world currently are being "regionalized." Presently, for example, the whole of the United States is being "regionalized" and the EU Committee of the Regions, based in Brussels, is "regionalizing" every country in the European Union. As the result of this radical "regionalization" process, Britain has now already been effectively abolished, having been divided up into 9 separate regions of the EU, plus Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

This cunning process, which is being "gradually" implemented to destroy the power of the central national government in each country, is commonly referred to as "Devolution" by the Queen and Fabian Society. Unlike the rest of the autonomous regions in the UK which, like most of the other regions in the EU that have become virtually powerless through their representation in the European Parliament which is now only a "talking shop," the City of London Corporation as a separate region by itself within the Union now rules it.[i.e. the City of London, like Vatican City State, Washington DC, and the Jewish sector of any nation, is a sovereign country within (and over) its sovereign host nation—Ed]. This is because all of the Commissioners are appointed (not elected) to the European Commission by City of London-controlled business leaders and bankers in their respective countries.

Right now throughout the UK all city councils and regional councils are dramatically increasing their rate demand on their constituent's properties, while at the same time they are quickly expanding their debt levels for unaffordable capital works programs via loans from City of London banks—which policies are deliberately intended to prepare for the councils' "privatization" whilst transferring the local government in each country to "regional councils"—which ultimately will become or be controlled by "Regional Parliamentary Assemblies," identical to the old structure in the former Soviet Union—which first regionalized then abolished the national governments before they set up their republican socialist police state.

"SOVIETIZATION" OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT IN NEW ZEALAND

In New Zealand, the blatant UN "Sovietization" of the entire country was implemented by the Hon. Dr. Michael Bassett, Minister of Local Government, through the Local Government Amendment Act (No.2) in 1989. This radical act reduced more than 600 different local authorities throughout the country to 94: 13 regional councils, 74 district or city councils and seven special authorities. This new structure of local government deftly created by the act divided the whole country up into 14 "Soviet-styled" regions governed by 13 regional councils and a district council (with the Airborne Region being unique in that its district council was also to become the regional council for that area).

Under the 1989 Act, the district and city councils were designed to continue to provide essential services such as water supply, roads, sewage disposal and rubbish collection (which all ultimately would be "privatized" or transferred into "Public-Private-Partnerships (PPP's) which would finally end up being foreign-owned) and the regional councils would take over many of the responsibilities performed in the past by many special purpose authorities formerly carried out by such agencies as catchment boards, harbor boards, pest and noxious plant authorities etc.

Ultimately, this devious plan is to transfer many of the Central Government tasks and responsibilities to regional councils as well, which will be further subtly rationalized to become or be controlled by "Sovietized" Regional Development Agencies and Regional Parliamentary Assemblies—to rule their unwary serfs and peasants under strict Communist United Nations and Marxist EU socialist law. These processes are now well advanced and are almost complete in Britain, and are accelerating in all other countries, including the United States. One could say that the Fabian Socialist global "cake is about 95% baked!"

COMMUNIST "SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT"

In 1992 at the "communist" United Nations Conference on the Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janero, Brazil, co-chaired by former Soviet Union president Mikhail Gorbachov and N. M. Rothschild-London agent Canadian billionaire Maurice Strong, the UN unveiled a radical environmental philosophical agenda which "inverted" the traditional values reflected in the Bible, Magna Carta and US Constitution (which put man under God at the head of his creation and dominion i.e. a man's rights were to have superiority over those of animals, fish, plants, trees and forests etc.).

At the Earth Summit in Rio, an old pagan concept was introduced which "inverted" all of our existing, constitutional, democratic, personal and property rights and values espoused by Christianity—and transferred them to the environment and the religion of mother-earth Gaia worship. In this religion, a tree becomes more valuable than a human being. A rare bird more valuable than a hospital.

This United Nations program of action unveiled in Rio was called Agenda 21. It is 300 pages long and is very complex. Primarily it is designed to be implemented with other radical UN documents such as the Global Biodiversity Assessment (1,100 pages), promoted by the UN Conference on Human Settlements, Habitat II.

The first Habitat conference was held in 1974 and specifically identified private property ownership as a threat to the peace and equality of the environment. It proposed to revolutionize the development of the land and cities of each country under strict "Soviet-style" environmental guidelines, called "Sustainable Development."

The UN's communist secret agenda through "environmentalism" and "sustainable development" is very cunning and has deceived a lot of well-meaning people. That most people genuinely want to protect the environment and ensure that the earth's resources are "sustainable" for future generations there is no doubt. But the communist goal of "sustainable development" and "environmentalism" has absolutely nothing to do with protecting the environment or sustainability—it is all about abolition of property rights, and ultimately, collectivization of housing and farms under corporate State control.

Under this system, farmers and property owner's rights would be effectively extinguished and overridden by strict Environmental and Sustainable Development resource consents and laws. They would be told where they could farm, what "sustainable" land they could "develop," (sustainable development) what trees they could plant or cut down, what fertilizer if any they could apply, and they would need "consents" and licenses for everything under the sun.

City dwellers would be in the same dire predicament, and have their homes confiscated, or they'd be severely fined, if they cut down a heritage tree, washed their car, boat or dishes using detergent, or used the privatized corporation's water when they shouldn't, especially if they were nabbed under their friendly "Neighbourhood Watch Scheme," which scheme, incidentally, was first implemented in the Soviet Union.

Socialism is very subtle. The penalty for cutting a tree down without the appropriate government consent would become worse than murder. Not only would you have to license your dog, to own a dog you would have to be licensed too. Farmers would need to be licensed to operate their collectivized farms, spray weeds, care for cattle and drive their tractors under new Soviet-styled "health and safety" laws. All tradesmen and professional workers would have to be accredited and licensed, as would all Christian pastors and churches, and any other persons or institutions that could be likely to criticize their Soviet bosses.

All potential young parents would need to have a license to have children, and if there was any family genetic weakness of some sort in their state-controlled doctor's medical records, no license would be given. In the end you would need a license or permit to take your boat on a lake, take your kid fishing off a wharf, or travel between towns or cities. In other words—full-blown Marxism.

The United Nations policy of "Sustainable Development" introduced in 1992 at the UNCED at Rio de Janero, and implemented through Habitat II and the UN World Commission on Environment and Development—is taken directly from the USSR Constitution, chapter 2, article 18, which reads:

"In the interests of the present and future generations, the necessary steps are taken in the USSR to protect and make scientific, rational use of the land and its mineral and water resources, and the plant and animal kingdoms to preserve the purity of air and water, ensure reproduction of natural wealth, and improve the human environment."

National Party Prime Minister, Jim Bolger, attended the UN Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and signed on behalf of New Zealand to commit the country to Agenda 21 and Sustainable Development. Labour Party Prime Minister Helen Clark attended the follow-up summit in Johannesburg August 26—September 4 2002 aptly called the "World Summit for Sustainable Development," where she attended the head of state sessions. The summit has since been nicknamed "Rio+10 because it marked the 10th anniversary of the first Earth Summit at Rio. NZ Environment Minister Marion Hobbs led a 35-strong delegation to the giant summit, and was one of five vice-presidents nominated by the UN to lead the summit comprised of about 45,000 delegates.

Not only was N. M. Rothschild agent, Maurice Strong, Secretary-General of the UN 1992 Rio Earth Summit, he personally worked with UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan to appoint three of his own Earth Charter Commissioners to the 12-man advisory panel of the Johannesburg Summit.

WORLD CONSERVATION BANK

In September 1987, the 4th World Wilderness Congress was held in Denver, Colorado, USA, which established the World Conservation Bank. The Congress was set up by none other than London's (late) Baron Edmond de Rothschild, chairman of Banque Privee Edmond de Rothschild, Geneva, Switzerland, and one of the trustees of the International Wilderness Foundation that sponsored the conference. Approximately 1,500 of the world's most powerful bankers and leaders attended the congress, which was chaired by Rothschild agent and Canadian multibillionaire, Maurice Strong.

At the congress, Edmond de Rothschild designated eminent financier I. Michael Sweatman to be the first president of the World Conservation Bank. Sweatman wrote the forward of the banks charter. Leading insiders of the biggest banks and UN agencies in the world were present, including Maurice Strong "Mr. Sustainable," David Rockefeller head of the Chase Manhattan Bank "Mr. Development" and Mr. David Ruckleshaus head of the UN Environmental Protection Agency "Mr. Environment"—of course!

The World Conservation Bank is destined to become the final World Bank and the "de-coupling mechanism" for City of London parent banks to take over the assets of every country of the world. The essence of their secret plan is this: After an orchestrated period of global financial chaos triggered by a major war in the Middle East or man-made state of emergency or natural disaster, in which most of the world's banks will be deliberately collapsed in the process, (wiping everybody's savings out in the crash), key City of London banking parent creditors, are going to take over all the "mort-gages" (death-bonds) and assets of the world, and transfer them to the World Conservation Bank.

The plan is very esoteric and cunning, and very difficult for most to understand. Already most government treasury departments are preparing for such an event. As part of the preparation for this momentous event, all of the world's individual currencies are to be merged into two or three major currency groups, two of which are the euro and US dollar. Finally, these currencies are to be replaced with the World Conservation Bank's new electronic global currency, the "Earth Dollar."

This new currency is deceptively to be issued against the collateral of 34 per cent of the Earth's surface that is presently being transferred into huge UN Heritage Parks and Conservation areas in every country across the globe, under the crafty deception "Sustainable Development." In short, the biggest banking conspiracy and deception ever to face mankind!

George W. Hunt, (95 Camino Basque, Boulder, Colorado 80302, USA), a US businessman, attended the congress and produced a video about it exposing their wicked and incredibly deceptive plans. On his video he plays excerpts of key speeches recorded at the congress. One such speech was made by David Lang, a leading US financier and close personal friend and business partner of Maurice Strong, who said:

"When the auditor finally gets his hands into the balance sheet, I suggest therefore that this be sold not through a democratic process. That would take too long and devour far too much of the funds to educate the cannon fodder unfortunately which populates the earth.

We have to take an almost elitist program that we can see beyond our swollen bellies and look to the future in time frames and in results—which are not easily understood or which can be, with intellectual honesty, be reduced down to some sort of simplistic definition."

"CANNON-FODDER!"—this is what these leading, arrogant, banking conspirators of the UN "Sustainable Development," "SmartGrowth," and World Conservation policies think of the world general population—including all New Zealanders. THESE are the wicked men that all the millions and millions of naïve local/central government politicians and business leaders throughout the world are now following.

The New Zealand government has already met its commitment and transferred over 34 per cent of the entire country's land area into UN Heritage Areas and Conservation Parks under this deceptive plan. New Zealanders need to wake up and wake up fast.

COMMUNIST "SMARTGROWTH"

The main business facilitators and organizations of the UN Sustainable Development policies in the Asia-Pacific Region are the Pacific Rim Institute of Sustainable Management, the NZ Business Council for Sustainable Development and the Melbourne-based Sustainable Investment Research Group (SIRIS). Equity in this group, SIRIS, coincidentally, is held by IOOF Funds Management and broking house J.B. Were—that provide research for N.M. Rothschild & Sons' Ethical Share Trust based in London.

The 1995 session the United Nations General Assembly passed a number of rules. Rule 61, 62 and 63 gave local government, civil organizations and private citizens the right to participate directly in the development and implementation of these documents.

Directed by the IMF, World Bank, UN, and Prince of Wales International Business Leaders Forum, the philosophy of "sustainable development" basically says that there are too many people on planet earth and there are not enough resources to go around. What we need to do is urgently reduce the population, preserve, conserve, and "ration" the remaining resources—and that the United Nations is the only body that can do it.

The World Bank already has a huge statistical database on countries and individuals—what they produce and what resources they consume, water, energy, food, raw materials, heat, waste, health, social services etc. If the net figure is a plus, they are considered to be good productive world citizens. If it is a negative, they are in line for liquidation. These are all basically the same old Socialist/Communist ideas as the "Marxist/Leninist" philosophy and "planned economy" that permeated the old Soviet Union.

In 1992 at Rio, another key "Soviet-styled" strategy proposed by the Agenda 21 Programme of Action from the United Nations Conference on the Environment and Development (UNCED) was "SmartGrowth." This agenda can be found in a UN companion book called Global Biodiversity Assessment published by Cambridge University Press. It proposes to model all the cities of the world on the Israel Moses Seif P.E.P plan, and the "planned" economic system of development used by Lenin and Stalin under the old Communist Soviet system of local government.

The UN "SmartGrowth" legislation in the United States was first passed in the State of Maryland in March 1997. Since then, it has been gradually introduced by city and district councils all around the world—including our own here in New Zealand. Of course, rarely if ever will you hear of the policy coming from a foul brood of UN international bankers. While virtually all of the general public are oblivious of this fact, usually individual councils will be happy to credit themselves as authors of the plans.

BRIBERY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT POLITICIANS

Based on a City of London corporate banking formula, a policy to provide "more appropriate rates of remuneration for council members" was planned for in the Local Government Act (No.2) 1989.

This was essentially recommended to effectively "bribe" City Council, District Council, Regional Council and Community Board members throughout New Zealand, particularly in the bigger councils, to implement the Fabian Socialist policies from the Central Government and Treasury which aimed to dramatically increase property rates and taxes in the future, whether ratepayers or constituents agreed with them or not. Subsequently, these sweeping remuneration changes were proposed by the politically appointed Higher Salaries Commission on April 2002 increasing:

1 Auckland Mayor John Banks annual salary from $47,007 to $146,107, a pay rise of $99,100

2 Manukau Mayor Sir Barry Curtis a pay rise of $35,111,

3 Hamilton Mayor David Braithwaite a pay rise of $27,381,

4 Auckland Regional Council Chairwoman Gwen Bull a pay rise $37,872 and,

5 Tauranga Mayor Jan Beange a pay rise of $9461.

Since April 2002, it is not just a coincidence that these are precisely the councils that have been amongst the biggest culprits who have demanded the most onerous rates rise from their struggling citizens. For example, Tauranga City's proposed average rate rise for the 2006-2007 year was leveled at 16.3 per cent (when inflation, wage rises, benefits, pensions etc. and the change in the consumer price index was running at about 3 per cent).

Even a five year old kindergarten child knows that this huge disparity is entirely unfair and "unsustainable" for the majority of their citizens, yet these highly paid Lord Mayors, Councilors and UN vassals of the realm have the cheek and audacity to call their plans "SmartGrowth" and "Sustainable Development."

PAUPERIZATION OF PENSIONERS AND THE MIDDLE CLASS

Just as there is a "close relationship" between the remuneration rises of leading local body politicians with the overall level of council rate-rise demand, so there is a "close relationship" between the level of council rate-rise impositions and the financial status of people living in each council ward or constituency.

The Fabian bankers already "own" the properties held by ratepayers with a "mort-gage" on them. This includes all private homes, farms, businesses and commercial property, local and central government debt. All young people with student loans and welfare beneficiary groups also come under this category. By and large central bankers believe this group is not a worry as they are already under their strict control and firmly in their grip through welfare dependency or mort-gage "death-bond" fealty.

The one group that Fabian Socialists hate the most are the "freehold" property-owners. Hence, this group, more often than not, is the "middle class" that is predominantly comprised of middle-aged citizens and more particularly pensioners who are generally the most asset-rich. As a result of this phenomenon, all global residential property taxation and ratepayer tax policies are now being subtly targeted against these particular groups to confiscate all their properties.

Essentially the Fabian City of London banks envisage this to be achieved through a variety of measures including onerous council rate-rises, capital gains taxes on more expensive residential properties, stamp duties, the introduction of Home Equity Release Loans (usually for over-60's), aged health care, social welfare and superannuation programs that debit the cost from the value of recipient property estates, the introduction of Residential Equity Taxes and attacks against Family Trusts.

Since council taxes were introduced in Britain in 1993, the average council bill has increased by 121 per cent—but it has soared by 149 per cent in areas which have a lot of older residents. Chichester is the worst offender with a 173 per cent increase. The average bill in this West Sussex town, where 23 per cent of residents are retired, has jumped from £456 in 1993-1994 to £1,244 for 2005-2006. In the Dorset coastal town of Christchurch, where pensioners make up 30 per cent of the population, the bills have soared by 171 per cent from £441 to £1,193. Of the 20 local councils in England with the highest numbers of pensioners, 18 have seen their bills rise faster than average over the past 12 years, according to the research by Halifax Bank. (Daily Mail, Saturday, November 26, 2005).

The targeting and planning of these exorbitant rate rises comes not primarily from local councils, but from Central Government and Treasury officials through the Minister of Local Government and the Department of Internal Affairs under various OECD or UN agency guidelines.

BORROWING POWERS OF COUNCILS AND THE STEALING OF RATEPAYER'S PROPERTIES

Early in 1994 submissions were called for on Department of Internal Affairs plans to repeal the 1956 Local Authority Loans Act and for new borrowing powers to be placed in the 1974 Local Government Act.

Up to 1994, most local authority borrowing had to be approved by the Local Authorities Loans Board, which ensured that all long-term borrowing by councils for a capital work or asset had to be secured by future rates revenue. Since some loans were exempted from the control and monitoring of the Board, such as redemption loans, loans up to $50 million for local authorities with populations more than 20,000, and loans up to $15 million for local authorities with populations of less than 20,000, it was proposed that the Local Authorities Loans Board should effectively become redundant—and new laws should be implemented which would allow all local authorities to manage their financial costs and risks themselves with details of their proposed borrowing programs included in their annual plans.

As John Christian's research confirms, the Westminster System of Government was designed in 1844 by Benjamin Disraeli to place Communities into perpetual debt to the International Bankers. It was not designed as a democratic Good Governance process. The purpose of compulsory superannuation with employee contributions is to support the fractional reserve banking system that manufactures fiat money out of thin air as a perpetual money-making system. This illusionary credit money must be invested and is the means of creating and maintaining inordinate price/earnings ratios on the world's Stock Markets, contributing toward the inflation necessary to the survival of the world's ticket money and false economy.

In 1983 the International banksters elected Australia's Paul Keating the world's best Treasurer because he ensured the obedience of Australia by deregulating the Australian dollar, enabling overseas investment in the Australian Stock Market, and making superannuation compulsory by every employer. In recognition of his having created the international perpetual money machine he was awarded the unwinnable election as Prime Minister in 1993. eb448.htm

After forty-six years of law enforcement Jim Schwiesow opines: "Unquestionably President Bush did everything in his power to contribute to the disaffection and dissatisfaction of the people . . . and he did nothing to dissuade them from their ever-increasing anger with their elected Republican representatives. What did he care, they were close to an election and he had two more years to dink with the fate of the nation. In his mind this was their misfortune and his good luck. He reasoned that the Democrats were more attuned to his quest for one world governance, so he opted to throw his lot in with the opposition. I would imagine that as time passes many of the losing Republicans, who were sold out by Mr. Bush, would most likely come to the inescapable conclusion that they were played for suckers, big time".

In 1961, the Lord showed Brother Branham a vision wherein he shot a caribou with forty-two inch horns and afterwards, a silver tip grizzly bear. The caribou is the North American rein deer. "Rein" has the same meaning as reign, rule, govern or control. A "deer" is to a cud-chewing animal with deciduous horns. A "horn" in Bible symbolism is a power like a king or a dictator. Like the caribou, the horn or president of the United States is "deciduous" and regularly replaced. As the animal in the vision has 42 inch horns, the United States will have 42 presidents. George W. Bush is its 42nd President.

I believe this animal signifies the United States, Brother Branham killed it with one shot in that he accurately foretold the utter destruction of the US. Whereas caribou horns normally have panels, those in the vision had spikes measuring exactly forty-two inches. The ten horns on the beast that rose up from the sea will give their authority and economic strength to Rome and her United States image for precisely forty-two months (Revelation 13:1; 17:12-13; Daniel 2:41-44).

The Holy Roman Empire (800-1806) was Germany's First Reich, a continuation of the Roman Empire in Europe. It started in the lands ruled by Charlemagne (Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherlands, Belgium, Czech Republic, eastern France, Northern Italy and western Poland).

The Second Reich (1871-1919) was the German Empire ruled by the Hohenzollern dynasty in Prussia and Brandenburg, under which the "Iron Chancellor," Otto Von Bismarck, united Germany. The Jew-dominated Weimar Republic (1919-1933) followed World War I.

Hitler established the Third Reich (1933-1945), which is so called because he thought that under his leadership Germany could reunite the old Holy Roman Empire. Hitler was premature, a patsy for the 'hidden hand'.

German Prime Minister Angela Merkel takes the presidency of the EU in January, 2007, from which the corporatist Fourth Reich (of the rich) is rising with Rome's blessing. George II is forming its image by merging the US with Canada and Mexico in the North American Union under the blessing of the Rockefeller WCC. We live in interesting times.

10,000 Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews Protest outside 'Israeli' Consulate, NYC

Worldwide Press Freedom Index 2006

New countries have moved ahead of some Western democracies in the fifth annual Reporters Without Borders Worldwide Press Freedom Index, issued today, while the most repressive countries are still the same ones. "Unfortunately nothing has changed in the countries that are the worst predators of press freedom . . . and journalists in North Korea, Eritrea, Turkmenistan, Cuba, Burma and China are still risking their life or imprisonment for trying to keep us informed . . ."

The United States (53rd) has fallen nine places since last year, after being in 17th position in the first year of the Index, in 2002. Relations between the media and the Bush administration sharply deteriorated after the president used the pretext of "national security" to regard as suspicious any journalist who questioned his "war on terrorism". . . (US extraterritorial possessions rank 119th).

France (35th) slipped five places during the past year, to make a loss of 24 places in five years. The increase in searches of media offices and journalists' homes is very worrying for media organisations and trade unions. . . Full story: rsf.org

HAARP Defensive Economic Warfare

Before the events of September 11, 2001, the thought of American Military being given the authority to shoot down American civilian airliners loaded with passengers over US territory was inconceivable. Now this and many other measures are necessary for the safety and security of the nation.

The attacks were aimed not only at people, government and military but also on the economy, which in the long run could harm the entire world. Extreme measures were taken to minimize the initial damage to an already fragile economy: closed US markets, a surprise interest rate cut of half a percent prior to the markets opening, an extended share buyback program for companies. These measures didn't stop the initial five-day decrease on the Dow of 14.3%, the NASDAQ, which lost over 16%, and the S&P 500 lost over 11% . . .

Luckily on Monday September 24 within the first half-hour of the US markets opening a massive geomagnetic storm increased the positive ion ratios while at the same time decreasing the negative ion ratios to levels I have not seen since the beginning of SuperForce.com in January 2000. . .

SuperForce.com has shown with a special ion ratio algorithm capable of predicting these expected ion ratios months in advance that ion ratios also have a major influence on stock market mentality in that increased positive ion ratios generally reflect increased stock markets, while increased negative ion ratios coincide with decreasing markets. Positive ions cause irrational behavior (greed) and negative ions lead to level headed decisions (caution). . .

As HAARP was congressionally initiated I would recommend that the United States Congress, Senate and President consider limitations to the use of HAARP for events such as the Presidential election. I showed in a paper that the polls leading to the election indicated that 24% of the US Presidential Vote was swayed by the Ion Ratios on different days (I don't suspect HAARP was used during the Election 2000). To have the power to control the Ion Ratio so it is in your candidate or political party's favor, the day of the election or the months leading to the election when polls influence people is not a fair way of conducting an election. . .

Jews Petition US President against Zionist State

The origins of modern-day Zionism trace back to the late 19th Century, but the first major milestone toward the creation of a Jewish state happened in 1917. Great Britain was looking for all the friends she could find in what was then called "The Great War." That year the United States was drawn into that war with the deliberate help of President Woodrow Wilson. But that same year, Russia was removed from the war against Germany by the Bolshevik Revolution. So the Allies were still under great pressure; and in order to enlist the growing power of the Zionist movement on the side of Britain, the famous Balfour Declaration was announced. Lord Balfour announced that Britain would look with favor on the creation of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine. Most Americans were too preoccupied with news of the war to think long about the Balfour Declaration in Britain; but soon after the war ended, a major protest was published against the plans of the Zionists. On March 5, 1919, readers of the New York Times saw a long PETITION on page 7 with the headline:

"PROTEST TO PRESIDENT WILSON AGAINST ZIONIST STATE"

Orthodox Jews protest Zioniam

Nowadays if we saw a headline like that, most of us would probably pay little attention. We would assume that it was the work of the Arabs and turn the page; but that 1919 protest was presented and signed exclusively by Jews. And these were not some small splinter group of malcontents, they were a galaxy of Jewish stars in American politics, education, law, business, medicine, journalism, banking, as well as prominent rabbis; people like Congressman Julius Kahn of California who headed the list; Henry Morganthau, Sr., ex-Ambassador to Turkey; Simon Wolf, former consul to Egypt; Max Senior, former president of the National Conference of Jewish Charities; Professor Morris Jastrow of the University of Pennsylvania; Adolph Ochs, publisher of the New York Times; Lessing Rosenthal, Chicago attorney; Dr. Julius Rosenstein, surgeon at Mount Zion Hospital in San Francisco; L. H. Kampner, mayor of Galveston, Texas; I. W. Hellman, president of the Union Trust Company in San Francisco; and many others.

The PETITION begins, quote:

"As a future form of government for Palestine will undoubtedly be considered by the approaching Peace Conference, we, the undersigned citizens of the United States, unite in this statement setting forth our objections to the organization of a Jewish State in Palestine as proposed by the Zionist societies in this country and Europe."

The petitioners felt that they were, quote: "voicing the opinion of the majority of American Jews." To back that up, they pointed out, quote: "The American Zionists represent, according to the most recent statistics available, only a small proportion of the Jews living in this country, about 150,000 out of 3-1/2 million."

As their source, they cited the 1918 edition of the "American Jewish Yearbook" in Philadelphia.

The PETITION goes on to sound not only a protest but a series of warnings. The signers did sympathize with the concept of, quote: "A refuge in Palestine or elsewhere." They felt that this would be a good thing purely as a haven for Jews living under oppression; but they were bitterly opposed to the Zionist demands for, quote: "Reorganization of the Jews as a national unit to whom now or in the future territorial sovereignty in Palestine shall be committed."

The Jews who published that PETITION against a Zionist State 60 years ago turned out to be prophets. Like most prophets, their warnings went unheeded; but for more than three decades events in the Middle East have been acting out their warnings in flesh, blood, and tragedy. I can do no more than highlight a few points from the anti-Zionist PETITION, which is long and detailed, but history demands that we be aware of the efforts of the anti-Zionist Jews to turn aside tragedy, deep tragedy. They pointed out that the Zionists were demanding, quote: "A home not merely for Jews living in countries in which they are oppressed, but for Jews universally. No Jew, wherever he may live, can consider himself free from the implications of such a grant."

From a practical standpoint, my friends, they pointed out that tiny Palestine could not hold all the Jews then living in the world. The 6 to 10 million in Russia and Romania alone would have produced hopeless overcrowding; but beyond that, they objected to what they termed "political segregation." They felt it was both undemocratic and dangerous to Jews themselves the world over. They worried, quote: "All Jews repudiate every suspicion of a double allegiance; but to our minds, it is necessarily implied in, and cannot by any logic be eliminated from, the establishment of a sovereign state for the Jews in Palestine."

They added that, quote: "As a rule, those who favor such a restoration advocate it not for themselves but for others. Those who act thus and yet insist on their patriotic attachment to the countries of which they are citizens are self-deceived in their profession of Zionism."

They were worried that Jews themselves would be torn internally by pressures for double allegiance, and they were concerned that this would play into the hands of those who considered Jews, quote: "Aliens in every land, incapable of true patriotism, and prompted only by sinister and self-seeking motives."

Quoting Sir George Adam Smith, an authority of that day on Palestine, they also foresaw the bloodshed to come, quote: "It is not true that Palestine is the national home of the Jewish people and of no other people. It is not correct to call its non-Jewish inhabitants Arabs, or to say that they have left no image of their spirit and made no history except in the great mosque; nor can we evade the fact that Christian communities have been as long in the possession of their portion of this land as ever the Jews were."

The PETITION also says, quote: "The claims to various sections of this undefined territory would unquestionably evoke bitter controversies. To subject the Jews to the possible recurrence of such bitter and sanguinary conflict, which would be inevitable, would be a crime."

Finally, they concluded with the words: "We do not wish to see Palestine, either now or at any time in the future, organized as a Jewish State."

But, my friends, the Zionists were successful in thwarting this appeal by prominent American Jews. Israel became a nation in 1947, and the predicted bloodshed began immediately. Israeli terrorism by Menachem Begin and others caused Palestinian blood to run red in the streets. Palestinians became refugees in their own land, and the borders of Israel began expanding. Soon there was nothing left of what had been called Palestine.

The Middle East war plan, which the Russians halted in May 1979, involved the Zionists in alliance with the Bolsheviks. The Russians are determined to end the threat of nuclear war; and after 30 years of Israeli history, they have concluded the same thing about Zionism as about Bolshevism. They are convinced that there will be no peace in the world for Jew, Moslem, or Christian so long as Zionism exists. . . Long ago Russia's new rulers discovered that Zionism and Bolshevism had common origins. These origins involved the ROTHSCHILDS, but others are involved also, so they are now following the trail of satanic power towards its origins . . . they are hoping to strike at the very head of world Satanic power.

Comment: The modern state of Israel was established by non-Semitic political Zionists for the sinister purpose set forth in Theodor Herzl's book, A Jewish World Colony. As foretold by Daniel (2:36-45; 9:27) and Jesus (Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:8), Israel will be ruled by Gentiles from 606BC to the consummation. The illegitimate state will nonetheless work for the good of 144,000 elect Israelites since God cannot deal with them outside the land. After the end of our dispensation He will anoint two Hebrew prophets now in Israel to separate an election of Israelites from the self-styled Jews as Zechariah, Isaiah and Malachi foretold.

Depopulation and the American Mutts

. . . 40-50 million American children removed from the bodies of American women in the last 3.5 decades . . . under the guise of progressive rights for women. Do you not think there is a limit to genocide, or do you think genocide is only definable by lobbyists, politicians, women's organizations, and/or the United Nations and their "partners?" This happens to be one of the largest mass graveyards in human history—and that's just the US graveyard. Wouldn't you love to know how many babies have been eliminated worldwide? Wouldn't you love to know the real reason why? Try depopulation on for size—the depopulation mandated by the United Nations, women's organizations, and environmentalists—the groups tied to their financial teeth to foundation money, or in translation, global elites—and that depopulation will not include lowering the numbers of global elites. That is a guarantee.

So, the next time you hear about your school children learning about multi-culturalism, be not fooled. America is depopulating as we speak, and once the baby-boomers have been made sick enough to die, and the secularists continue to rule with Socialistic fists, America will be very, very unpopulated—minus the selected and genetically desired working class chosen by the elites to work for slave wages.

Comment: Revelation 6:8, "Behold a pale horse: the name of its rider was Death, and Hades followed him closely. . ."

Brother Branham said, "Women out there with your painted up fingernails, a fifty dollar coat wrapped around you, and a hundred dollar dress on; you can't kneel down. Today it's a dishonor, almost, to see a big family any more. Yes, sir. They'd rather pay a hundred dollars for a little snotty nosed dog and pack it around, and give it the love of a mother, and practice birth control, than to have children . . . hang around the barrooms, and drink, and play cards, and run around all afternoon in your husband's car. Why, it's a disgrace. The greatest honor a woman can do, outside of coming to Christ, and being loyal to her husband is to have a baby".

"Apocalypse Cry"

America,
You were once so free,
Adorned in truth
And liberty,
But the Hidden Hand
Has taken its toll.
Corrupted virtue
Has darkened your soul.
They say we are
A democracy,
Yet our leaders preach
Nought but hypocrisy
By taking millions
From the poor
To finance weapons
Of destruction and war.
The youth today
Has turned irate.
Society's decadence,
They celebrate
In the scourge of drugs
Across the land
With anarchy
Goes hand-in-hand.
The innocence
Of yesteryear
Has been stripped away,
Replaced by fear.
The American Dream,
It's just a lie.
Chin up, my friend,
No need to cry.
They say,
Any means can justify.
Oh, tell me please,
Just tell me why
That any means
Can justify
Iniquity,
Corruption and lies.
It's been prophesied
We're going to fall.
The handwriting is
Across the wall.
Look up, Young Bride,
The End is near.
Apocalypse Cry,
Oh, don't you hear?

America,
With your steeples tall,
Reaching blindly out
To hear God's Call.
The Television Evangelist,
Dressed in purest white,
His heart casting shadows
Of deepest night.
He says God hears
And answers your call
If from your pocketbook
You will withdraw.
Look up, Young Bride,
The hour is late,
The Lamb of God
No longer mediates.
They say,
Any means can justify.
Oh, tell me please,
Just tell me why
That any means
Can justify
Iniquity,
Corruption and lies.
It's been prophesied
We're going to fall.
The handwriting is
Across the wall.
Look up, Young Bride,
The End is near.
Apocalypse Cry,
Oh, don't you hear?
America,
I had a dream
That life on Earth
Was not what it seems.
The lamb lay down
Beside the lion.
The hungry children,
They ceased their crying.
Swords and guns,
Weapons of War
Into ploughshares made.
They were no more,
And Man was at peace
With Himself and the Land.
Prepare yourself, Young Bride,
The Time is at hand.

Until that Precious Day,
Brother Stephen Fluharty

The Bride will not go through the Tribulation

Man's day is at its end and the day of the Lord is dawning as a night of thick darkness, both natural and spiritual, following earthquakes that will sink Los Angeles, split the mount of Olives and call the resurrection of the sleeping Church Age saints at the second crucifixion of the Word of God as at the first.

Isaiah 13:9-10, "Behold, the day of the Lord comes, pitiless, with wrath and fierce anger, to make the earth a desolation and destroy its sinners out of it. For the stars of heaven and the constellations shall not give their light: the sun shall be dark at its rising and the moon shall not send out its light".

The judgment of Babylon as head of four Gentile world empires that would rule Israel is a type of the great judgment of the Roman world empire at the consummation that will precede the restoration of the kingdom to Israel in the Millennium (Acts 1:6; 3:21-25; II Samuel 7:11-17; Amos 9:11). As the blessings of God to the overcomers accumulate through the Church Ages, the false worship, persecution of God's people and arrogance of the Rome embraces and magnifies the evil character of the previous three Gentile world empires (Daniel 7:7-8, 19-28; 11:32-37; Revelation 17:1-6; 18:5-14, 24).

Isaiah was speaking of Armageddon and the consummation, which will bind Satan throughout the Millennium as his subjects will be in the grave until the general resurrection, and he cannot influence a glorified saint (Daniel 9:27; Revelation 19:20; 20:1-5, 10). He first mentions the darkening of the stars because the Hebrews reckoned the natural day from sunset when the sun withdraws its rays, without which the moon and stars lose their shining, then both day and night are robbed of their light. This phenomena will attend the opening of the Sixth Seal and the blast of the Seventh Trumpet as earthquakes sink Los Angeles and divide the mount of Olives, destroying the Dome of the Rock and igniting the simmering World War III (Joel 2:10; Zechariah 14:4-5; Revelation 11:13, 19; 16:18-21).

In the Spiritual, the darkened Sun represents a wrathful Christ whose rejected Light is withdrawn from we Gentiles; the bloody Moon signifies the apostate church whose lives should reflect the Son-Light of their day (I John 1:7) but will shortly kill all who refuse the mark of the beast. The Stars of heaven represent the sons of Adam written in the Book of Life and given free moral agency to determine their destiny like Adam and Eve. Here they signify non-elect and fallen sons. Stars also type God's messengers or ministers as in Revelation 1:16 and 2:1; I Corinthians 6:1-3; II Corinthians 2:14; Hebrews 2:5-9; II Peter 2:4; Jude 6, 13. In this vision they are fallen angels.

Ideally "the stars of heaven" signify the progeny of Adam or nominal sons of God (Genesis 6:2) of whom Jesus Christ is the Bright and Morning Star. At the close of the dispensation of the Law, "A great sign appeared in heaven portending things to come; a woman [Spiritual Israel, the true Church] clothed with the sun [the Son-Light of God's revealed Word], with the moon [Law] under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars [the twelve Apostles whose Light led the elect Israelites from the Law to grace]: and being pregnant with the Christ-child, she screamed in the pangs of her labour, in anguish for delivery. Suddenly there appeared another sign in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads [Imperial Rome]. And his tail [the false tale with which Rome's Edomite King Herod and the Jewish religious leaders deceived the Judeans—Isaiah 9:15-16] swept the third part of the stars of heaven [the Semitic children of Israel], and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born" (Jeremiah 31:15-17; Matthew 2:1-18).

"And she brought forth a man Child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her Child was crucified, dead and buried, [but on the third day He rose again according to Psalm 16:10 and was] caught up to God, and to His throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days" during the ministry of John the Baptist and Jesus Christ (Revelation 12:1-6).

This prophecy was fulfilled in the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and brings us to the Day of Pentecost where the Church or Kingdom of God was born and the Gentile dispensation begun, during which the apostasy of unrepentant Israel would deepen under the chastisement of the first Six Trumpet Judgments (Revelation 9:20-21). The dispensation of the Law and God's dealings with Israel as a nation ended when "Messiah was murdered although He was blameless and His Kingdom unrealized" (Daniel 9:26a). Revelation 12 outlines the ministry two Hebrew prophets will deliver to 144,000 elect Israelites. In one verse Jesus states what will happen, and in the following verse or two explains how the prophecy will come to pass.

The Gentile dispensation lies hidden between verses 6 and 7; between Daniel 9:26 and 27, and also within Isaiah 61:1 and Zechariah 13:7. Here God turns to we Gentiles "to call out a people for His Name," a Bride for Messiah. This dispensation is summarized in verses 10-12 and Israel's prophecy resumes in verse 7 at the close of our dispensation of grace occasioned by the completion of the Bride and the apostasy of the nominal church. Satan is cast down to earth, while the Woman's Seed-Church is "caught up to meet her Lord in the air" and God returns to purge Israel in the great tribulation of Daniel's Seventieth Week (9:27). 144,000 born-again Israelites as well as the different groups of the "saved" whose names remain in the Book of Life will by martyred by the apostate church as the Jewish denominations martyred the Christians (Matthew 16:24-26).

Revelation 12:7-11, "And there was war in heaven: Michael and His angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, but they were defeated. So the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

In a vision Jesus "foresaw Satan falling from heaven like lightning" (Luke 10:18). The power of the Church restored to pre-eminence, and with the "third pull," upset the whole kingdom of Satan, and he was cast out of the holy places.

"And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ is come: for the accuser of our brethren, who accuses them day and night before our God has been thrown down. For the Church Age saints have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the Word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death" (Revelation 20:4).

This marks the opening of the Sixth Seal and the sounding of the Seventh Trump, which end the Gentile dispensation and herald the manifestation of the Sons of God to appropriate faith for translation grace during the resurrection of the Church Age saints. This Trumpet calls Israel to her Day of Atonement by revealing the mystery of the previous Six Trumpets by the ministry of two Hebrew prophets. Thereafter Rome and her daughters will turn upon Spiritual Israel in the "squeeze," and we will become a hunted and persecuted little group reliant solely upon the spoken Word for survival. Not one hair of our heads will be harmed, and after we are taken Home the persecution will fall upon the foolish virgin. The remnant of the woman's seed is no longer a Gentile but a Hebrew Church of 144,000 blood Israelites, none of whom will be a Jew, led by the two Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4, Matthew 24:31, and Revelation 11.

If you are a Jew and you are in Adam's race, run to the Lord Jesus Christ without delay, because according to the Bible, Jewish encyclopedias and historians, you are almost certainly a non-Semitic Gentile. Your day of redemption is now . . . or never. Besides, if you are a blood Israelite you have no redemption outside the Promised Land.

Revelation 12:12-14, "Rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell therein. Woe to the earth and the sea, for the Devil has come down to you with raging anger, because he knows that his time is short1. And when the dragon found himself cast down to earth, he persecuted the woman who brought forth the man Child. But to the woman were granted two wings of a great eagle [two Hebrew prophets anointed with the Spirit that endued Moses and Elijah], that she might fly to her retreat in the wilderness, away from the Presence of the Serpent, where she feeds upon their ministry which reconfirms the new covenant in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week" (Daniel 9:27a).

"The wilderness" is a metaphor for a place of seclusion; it is not a natural desert. The true Church is "in the wilderness" now, separated from Rome and her denominational daughter churches; separated even from many Message congregations but feeding on the unfailing Body Word of the Son of man. How can the people of the Dragon find us? How will they locate 144,000 elect Israelites in Jerusalem? They won't be in a synagogue, mosque or denominational church. As Israel in Goshen was protected from Egypt's plagues before the exodus, Christ's end-time Bride is secure in the spoken Word between the lines in Scripture till the Sixth Seal opens at the Seventh Trumpet; then she is protected by the "third pull." The 144,000 will be secure until the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week, protected by the "third pull" of their two prophets (Revelation 11:5-7). Revelation 12:12-17 outlines, and Revelation 13:1– 15:8 explains in detail how God will separate 144,000 elect Israelites from the Jews, and how Rome will break her covenant with the Banksters and martyr Israel's prophets. Then "all Israel will be born-again in one day" and martyred from that time and the consummation, so fulfilling the sixfold purpose of Daniel 9:24.

Revelation 12:15-17, "And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood (of troops) after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ".

At the close of the dispensation of the Law, Satan's false theology cast down Shem, "the third part of the stars of heaven" (Revelation 12:4); and at the end of the our dispensation, the "power and signs and lying wonders" of the god of this evil age will cast down Ham and Japheth, the other two parts of the stars of heaven (Revelation 13:4-7, 11-13).

Brother Branham said, "Notice how beautiful the Scriptures tie themselves together in every age. Notice now. And when the church world would not have the Word of God to rule over them, they accepted a murderer, Barabbas. What did this do? It exalted Satan, the god of this evil age, to the place that's he always wanted. Now, listen. For Satan is not spoke of as a god of any other age but this age. He wasn't spoke of the god of the age of Noah. He wasn't spoke of the god of the age of Moses, the god of the age of Elijah, but this evil age he is the . . . Oh, don't miss it. He is the god of this evil age worshipped by millions and billions of people, and they don't know it.

But let's let the Scripture uncover him this morning, and let's see, then you'll know. Let the Scripture, as in the meetings of discernment when the Holy Spirit gets among His Word and He calls out this man and says, "You have no business living with this other woman. What did you do that for ten years ago when you run off with that man's wife?" What's He doing? Uncovering him, exposing Satan that's got the man bound, or the woman living with some other woman's husband, or the sins that they've done, the things that they have done. What does it do? Expose him.

The doctors take instruments and try to find what's wrong. They can't do it. We can't tell. But then, the Holy Spirit comes out, and reveals what he is, and exposes him. See? That's what the Word of God is. It is a Light that shines in darkness. And when you take a noise in the room, it sounds mysterious. A bunch of something working, and you don't know what it is, turn on the light. Quickly, crickets, roaches, they are children of the darkness. And when the light flashes, they scatter away. "They went out from us, because they wasn't of us," the Bible said. See? They cannot live in the Light of the Word, for the God of heaven has sent His Light in this last days that He might lighten the path for His children, that they might not walk in darkness and stumble, but they might walk in the Light of the shining of Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.

Notice, Satan is not called the god of any other age but this age. It was his ambition to be like God from the very beginning. . . Let's go back here to Isaiah 14:12 and 14. Notice.

"How art thou falling from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How art thou cast down to the ground, which did weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: . . . [Sons of God, now] . . . and I will set also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:"

It was Satan's ambition to be worshipped like God. He took two-thirds of the stars of heaven, ascended hisself above those stars, and preached to them, and deceived two-thirds of them. You see it? All right. Notice, that's his ambition. And now he is ready with his careful selected, educated bride by his own knowledge (See?), all painted up in his deceit of big buildings, and big denominations, and paints of knowledge, and theology, and smart, and intellectual, and educated, to deceive the whole world and become a god (that's what he's done), all heading up into the person of the antichrist, which is already crowned the vicar of God by his worldly-loving, scientific bride, all dressed up in pomp of intellectual, religious education. She is made religious like him, and by his own interpretation of the Word of God as he did Eve . . .

The day we are living is called in the Bible, the day of man, man's day. This is not God's day. God is not the god of this earth; the Bible says He isn't; He's the God of heaven. But this is not God's day; this is choosing day. Either live for today and die; choose God and live; and God is the Word. And the Word is the Word manifested for the hour and the day. . .

"What do you call it the man's day for?" you would say. It's the day that the works by the knowledge of man is glorified. Look what all the brag of the Communists. Somebody try and get somebody to the moon. God's trying to get somebody to heaven. See? But look how they're spending millions, and billions, and trillions of dollars in a wasted effort. When they get there they ain't going to find nothing. What's the matter with them? I don't care about the moon. I want to pass the moon so fast I won't even see it, just keep going higher. I want to pass the milky, white way, go on, just keep going. Yes.

And the world today is dedicating themselves to the knowledge which came by Satan; and man's day is glorified, not by the Word of God, but by the knowledge that he has. Now, think; let that soak in . . . and think. His works are exalted above God's Word and manifested works. The wisdom of Satan which he give to Eve at the beginning. . . Now, listen, don't miss this. The wisdom of Satan is exalted to the throne of worship in man above the vindicated Word of God for the hour. Our churches proves that by their seminaries, schools of learning, that's learnt more than God's Word knows about it, they think. And there, Doctor So-and-so, and teacher So-and-so, and professor So-and-so has exalted their own knowledge, so-called, from Satan, truth above the vindicated promise of God made clear right before them. And men fall for it. See?

His scientific achievements trying to prove God's Word wrong. . . Just think of that. Man's theology, explains God's Word to the people and makes It of no effect again like he had it in the denominational age when Jesus appeared on the earth. Jesus said, "You hypocrites, you by your tradition [That's their interpretation.] has took the Word of God and made it of no effect to the people." And that's the same thing they've done today. It doesn't have the effect.

Notice, they, the people, exalt him above all that's called God. Don't II Thessalonians say they would do it? And the authority of a denominational church, the people believing that denomination more than they believe God, and God is the Word, they'll believe their denominational creed above the Word, which exalts him above all that's called God. And there's only one God; and that's the Word. All that's called God. . . So he as God, sets in the church of the God, proving that he is god, because he's got the people worshipping him. God is the Word. And he exalts himself above all that's called God. And there's only one God, and that God is the Word. See? And all that's called god is. . . The god of this age has exalted himself above the true, vindicated Word of God (that's St. John 1. See?)—above all that's called God so that he as God, sets in the temple of God with authority (Look.); and he is praised for it. Oh, let the people, God, see that deception. He is praised for it and solemnly believed by the people of this evil age. Now, do you see the god and his servants of this evil age? (God of this Evil Age, p. 16:74-88).

Isaiah 14:12-15, "How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, who humbled the nations! For you said in your heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit on the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the cloud [i.e. the Shekinah); I will be like the most High. [And as the Shekinah-cloud was connected with the temple, "he as God sits in the temple of God" (Daniel 11:36-37; II Thessalonians 2:3-12)]. Incarnate as the eighth deified head of Rome but ruling from Jerusalem as head of the antitype, Mystery Babylon, Lucifer will be seated on the mount of the congregation in the sides of the north when he usurps the dedication of the fourth temple and forces the mark of the beast (Revelation 17:4-11). Yet you will be brought down to sheol, to the sides of the pit."

So God will end the Gentile dispensation in unbelief as He ended the dispensation of the Law, but three and a half years remain for Israel to repent and receive the blessing of Abraham under the ministry of their two prophets, and seven years of tribulation for the entire world (Romans 11:32, 15).

Amos 5:7-10, "You who pervert sweet justice to bitter wrong, and trample righteousness and fair play under foot, seek Him who made the seven stars of the Pleiades and Orion, who turns thick darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night: who calls forth the water from the sea and pours it out as rain upon the land: The Lord is His Name. With blinding speed and violence He brings destruction to flash forth on the strong, so that destruction comes upon the fortified city. They hate honest judges who reprove in the gate, and they abhor prophets who speak the truth".

In the day of the Lord Israel must repent, or perish. Orion was the precursor of the tempests, which are here threatened, for Isaiah represents Christ coming in judgment. The terrible Judge is also portrayed in the constellation of Taurus the bull whose shoulder securely supports the seven stars of Pleiades or "congregation of the elect" who are free from judgment (Isaiah 9:6; Revelation 1:16; 2:1). The Pleiades are said to usher in spring, which is resurrection time for the Bride of Christ. This is the witness in the stars, and both Testaments (Isaiah 34:2-8; 24:21; Jude 14-15).

We live under the Seventh Seal. There is silence in heaven for the Lord Jesus has descended with the Church Age saints to unite with His end-time Bride by the "Shout" of Brother Branham's Message and His Voice in our hearts bringing us to maturity in the unity of the faith by placing the Message in context with Scripture from Genesis to Revelation so we will know and come under preeminence to the unfailing Body Word for the manifestation of the Sons of God (Revelation 8:1-5; 10:1-7; Matthew 24:22-28; I Thessalonians 4:14-16). It is the revelation of this Message of Christ's 'parousia' Coming that "shortens the days for the sake of God's elect, preserving us from the slaughter of the tribulation."

1964 Alaska easthquakeThis silence in heaven is the holy convocation or fiftieth day of the Pentecostal Feast, a place or dispensation unknown to the denominations. The hour is so late and silence so brief, that even now the seven angels or portions of the Spirit of God that anointed the Church Age Messengers and returned back before the Judgment seat at the end of Laodicea (Revelation 4) stand ready to reveal the Seven Trumpet mysteries to Israel's prophets. And in this pantomime of temple ritual, Christ our High Priest stands before the golden altar offering the incense of the Message with the revelation of the Church Age saints to make it perfect and acceptable to God. Soon He will fill his censer with fire from the altar of sacrifice, and cast it into the earth to produce the earthquake at the opening of the Sixth Seal and the sounding of the Seventh Trumpet as Brother Branham signified when he spoke the earthquake that struck Alaska on Good Friday, 1964.

Matthew 24:29-30, "Immediately after the tribulation of those days [the Gentile dispensation] the sun will be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven [grace and mercy have ended]: "he who is filthy shall be filthy still" and his name will be blotted from the Book of Life (II Thessalonians 2:10-12; Revelation 13:8; 17:8), and the powers of the heavens will be shaken [casting Satan and his angels out from heavenly places]: then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven [the Supernatural Cloud signifying Christ's 'parousia' Coming to Israel] and [after the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week] all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, when they understand the significance of the sign of Christ's 'parousia' in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And He will send his angels [the Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11] with the sound of the Great Trumpet (Isaiah 27:13; I Thessalonians 4:16; I Corinthians 15:52; Revelation 11:15), and they shall gather together his elect [Israelites] from the four winds [war and strife], from one end of heaven to the other".

The Sixth Seal and Seventh Trumpet will cause an upset of nature at the second crucifixion of the Word that ends the Gentile dispensation as occurred on the first Good Friday that terminated the Hebrew dispensation. Matthew 27:45-52, "From the sixth hour [9.00 am to noon] there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour [noon to 3.00pm] . . . and when Jesus had cried again with a loud voice, He yielded up the ghost. And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose".

Revelation 6:12-17, "When He had opened the Sixth Seal, I saw a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth, and the full moon looked like blood [when seen through volcanic ash from the Pacific ring of fire and other volcanoes that will erupt]. The stars of heaven fell to the earth as when a fig tree, shaken by a violent wind, casts her unripe fruit [the non-elect Israelites and Gentiles whose day of grace is past]. . . For the great day of His wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand"?

Under the Sixth Seal Israel will be purged and delivered. Isaiah 34:1-8, "All the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the skies will be rolled up as a scroll [for all names have been declared on earth; the Gentile dispensation and man's day are over]: and all their host shall fall down as leaves fall from the vine, and as a rotten fig falls from the fig tree. For My sword has finished its work in the heavens [casting out Satan and his angels]; watch now as it descends to Judgment on the Edomite Jews, the people of My curse" (Malachi 1:1-4; Romans 9:13).

Brother Branham warned, "Total annihilation—it could start at any time . . . That's how they throwed the world out of its bounds in the days Noah, when they built the pyramids, the sphinx, and so forth. We couldn't build it today if we had to. Gasoline power, electric power won't build it. But atomic power will. So they could turn it loose, and shock the world from its orbit. And it being hot went out and caused moisture that covered the whole earth. This time He's going to blow it into the sun. Just exactly, scientifically, right across the center the way God said it would happen. Here it is now. We're at the end time. And men are still unprepared" (Fellowship through Reconciliation, #55-0605).

Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be today." But for those who are prepared He has designed a threefold process whereby they may escape the wrath to come. It's called the rapture, or "transportation" through transformation of our corruptible body to incorruption, and from this mortal to immortality, whereby "Death is swallowed up in victory." It has been tested and proven.

There have been three raptures in the Old Testament:
Genesis 5:24, Enoch, our type
II Kings 2:11, Elijah
Acts 1:9, Jesus Christ

There has already been one in the New Testament, and two more remain:
Matthew 27:50-53, the Old Testament saints
I Thessalonians 4:14-17, the Bride of all ages
Revelation 11:11-12, the two witnesses to Israel

Our rapture commenced in 1963 with Christ's return and the "Shout" of the Prophet's Message, followed by "the Voice of the Archangel" in the heart of the Bride as she grows to maturity for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation after the "Seventh Trump." These Scriptures promise the rapture of Christ's Bride:
Luke 14:14
Luke 20:34-36
John 14:1-3
John 11:25-26
John 13:36
Romans 8:23
I Corinthians 15:12, 21, 51-54
Philippians 3:8-11, 20-21
James 5:7-8
Revelation 4:1-2
Revelation 22:7,12,20

"Those who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and those who turn many to righteousness as the stars of heaven forever and ever" (Daniel 12:3). eb449.htm

The Coming Starvation of South Africa

From the darkening tip of the continent comes news that under pressure from the Mbeki government, as well as terrorist strikes and murders, White South African farmers are selling their farms to Blacks. The government aims to give a third of white-owned land to the Blacks by 2014 and this programme is back on track. The aim is to settle subsistence farmers on the land for ideological reasons, rather than encourage viable agricultural enterprises.

When this has been done elsewhere on the Dark Continent production from farms has crashed. Starvation waits around the corner. . . Full story: alor.org

Comment: Revelation 6:8, "I beheld a pale horse: and the name of his rider was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given to 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.

Foolish men who sold their country under communism are now bent on cruel depopulation and national enslavement to the International Banksters by a program called "Liberty" in Newspeak!

Mystery of Israel's Secret Uranium Bomb

October 30, 3006– Did Israel use a secret new uranium-based weapon in southern Lebanon this summer in the 34-day assault that cost more than 1,300 Lebanese lives, most of them civilians? . . .

Scientific evidence gathered from at least two bomb craters in Khiam and At-Tiri, the scene of fierce fighting between Hizbollah guerrillas and Israeli troops last July and August suggests that uranium-based munitions may now also be included in Israel's weapons inventory—and were used against targets in Lebanon . . .

Israel has a poor reputation for telling the truth about its use of weapons in Lebanon. In 1982, it denied using phosphorous munitions on civilian areas—until journalists discovered dying and dead civilians whose wounds caught fire when exposed to air. Full story: countercurrents.org

Comment: The Australian Jewish News, October 27, 2006– "Israel admits using phosphorous": "Israel has reportedly confirmed that it used white phosphorous bombs during the Lebanon war." So can we expect that in fourteen years time Israel will admit using a "secret new uranium" weapon in the latest attack on Lebanon?

Ushering in the Millennium

Scripture is being acted-out on the world stage yet few in the audience of six billion have eyes to see and hearts that can discern the self-righteous religious spirit that possessed the political leaders of the iniquitous "coalition of the willing" to invade sovereign nations on the basis of patent lies, and kill defenceless innocents. This "strong delusion was sent by God" on the children of Antichrist imprisoned in the world church system to cause all who have disbelieved the truth in order that they may take pleasure in unrighteousness to be judged at Armageddon (II Thessalonians 2:11-12; Revelation 16:16).

God would be unjust to condemn the world without revealing His righteousness as the way to escape judgment. Joel 2:28 foretold that in the tribulation of the "last days," which is the Messianic Age of redemption and completion that runs from Pentecost to the consummation, God would "pour out His Spirit upon all flesh." God pours out His Spirit in Word form by the foolishness of preaching whereby men become one in faith with Him, fulfilling Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane (John 17:9, 17-26). Jesus said, "This good news of the Kingdom of God shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all Gentiles; and then shall the end come" (Matthew 24:14). So "the last days" is a period of 2,000 years.

He first revealed His will to Israel, but Israel refused His Word as foretold in the parable of Matthew 21:33-46, beating and killing His prophets who brought correction and preached repentance. But when they slew His Son the Kingdom of God was taken from them and given to Christ's Gentile Bride. Since then the good news has been preached to the Gentiles, yet soon they too will end in apostasy (Romans 11:32; II Thessalonians 2:1-3). Their lack of discernment is illustrated by their coalition of the willing sinners engaged in the slaughter of the Jews' enemies, the true heirs of the Patriarchs of Israel exiled in the former dominions of ancient Assyria (Genesis 27:40-41; Isaiah 11:11).

The end of the wheat season or Gentile dispensation is nigh. The Message of Brother Branham, the angel to the Seventh Church Age, has "restored all things spoken by the mouth of all God's holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21). He gathered the loose ends of PART-Word delivered by the previous six angels, finished their mysteries and joined them in the seamless unity of the faith by the revelation of the Seventh Seal, which is the seven thunders of Revelation 10:3. This brought back "that which is perfect": Christ, the fullness of the Word (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7). Christ's end-time Bride now rests in the holy convocation of the fiftieth day of the Pentecostal feast, ripening to original Seed in the Son-Light of the fullness of the Word "to judge and make war" with the spirit of Antichrist by the spoken Word in the manifestation of the Sons of God that will produce faith for translation grace (Romans 8:17-39; I Thessalonians 4:14-17; I Corinthians 15:46-57).

The threefold process of the first resurrection commenced with Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming (I Thessalonians 4:16; I Corinthians 15:23). "Then," explained Paul, "comes the end-purpose of God," which is to "put down all rule and authority and power" contrary to God by the omnipotence of His immutable Word whereby His laws in nature will overcome manmade laws of philosophy and science so-called to restore equilibrium to the cosmos following the consummation of all life. It was nuclear war in the days of Noah that threw earth off its axis and away from the sun, causing precipitation of the firmament. This in conjunction with artesian water released from earth's broken crust produced the Great Flood. Jesus said this would repeat in the days of His second or 'parousia' Coming (Matthew 24:37). This time earth will be thrown toward the sun, causing the oceans to explode, sending flames thousands of miles into space and rupturing earth's mantle so that fresh lava covers its surface erasing all evidence of man's activities (II Peter 3:1-13).

Paul goes on to explain how Christ shall reign throughout the Millennium and bring judgment unto justice at the Great White Throne. Then, when even death has been destroyed in the lake of Fire along with Satan and his demons, "the Son Himself shall also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all" (I Corinthians 15:24-28; Revelation 20:11-15). Heavens and earth will be renewed by this baptism with the Holy Ghost and fire and cleansed of supernatural evil for Christ and His Bride to return with the saints of all Ages to rule the saved throughout eternity (Revelation 21-22).

"Having made known to us in all His wisdom and insight the secret of His end-purpose which He proposed in Christ (the mystery of the seven thunders), a plan to be brought to completion in the dispensation of the fullness of times, to unite us all together in Christ from wherever we are—in heaven or on earth—to be with Him forever. In Christ we too were made God's heritage, as foreordained according to the purpose of He who accomplishes all things in agreement with the design of His own will: that we who first hoped in Christ have been destined to live for the praise of His glory." Paul proceeds to explain how "the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him" will imbue us with the resurrection power that raised Christ from the dead, "and put all things under His feet" (Ephesians 1:9-11).

"The time of the end" (Daniel 12:4, 9; I Corinthians 15:24; Revelation 10:4), fiftieth day, holy convocation and rapture all describe the transition period from man's day to the day of the Lord and the Millennium in which the Kingdom is restored from Edomite suzerainty to Israelite sovereignty. The actual "end" will be the physical "restoration of all things" as they existed before the Fall in the eternal eighth day of a renewed heavens and renewed earth. However, time will continue for over a thousand years while Christ "puts down all rule and authority and power" contrary to God's unchanging Word (I Corinthians 15:23-28).

This transition period commenced with the Coming of Christ "as a thief in the night" at the close of the Laodicean Church Age. The revelation of the Seven Seals in March, 1963, brought Christ back to earth in WORD form (Matthew 23:22-28; I Corinthians 13:10; I Thessalonians 4:14-17; 5:2; Jude 14-15; Revelation 10:1-7) to incarnate and bring the temple of His end-time Bride under pre-eminence to the Word for the manifestation of the Sons of God and our translation.

Once the Wheat Bride is harvested and has been gathered Home for the Wedding Supper of the Lamb, God will anoint the two Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4, Matthew 24:31 and Revelation 11 to gather and "subdue unto Him" 144,000 elect blood Israelites for their day of atonement by the revelation or feast of the Seven Trumpet mysteries. Their season of harvest described in Revelation 14 is typed by the Feast of Tabernacles is when the fruit of all the trees is gathered.

The fig tree will bear in the latter half of Daniel's Seventieth Week after Rome breaks her covenant with the International banksters, martyrs Israel's prophets and forces the mark of the beast. In this she will be assisted by her (once) Protestant daughter churches, her image in the spiritual realm, the United States of America, the image of Rome in the political realm, and doubtless the coalition of the willing apostate colonies of the empire of the City of London. Rome and the United States are represented in Revelation 13 as two brutal, venomous and untamable wild beasts.

Revelation 14:1-5 portrays 144,000 elect Israelites already redeemed by the revelation of Justification by grace through faith that was restored to us Gentiles by the angel Martin Luther (Revelation 14:6-7), Sanctification by the blood restored by the angel John Wesley (Revelation 14:8), and the true baptism with the Holy Ghost as a revelation of the present truth rather than a sensation restored by William Branham, the angel to the seventh Church Age, warning them not to receive Catholic dogma or do Rome's bidding and assuring them that although they must surrender their lives in order to maintain their testimony, "their works will follow them" (Revelation 14:9-20; 6:11; Matthew 27:25).

Revelation 15:2-4 is in parenthesis as it explains what takes place in Revelation 14. The sea of glass in which the sacrifice was washed before it was inspected and presented to the Lord was the brazen laver made of the copper looking glasses of the Israelite women. In Revelation 4:6 the sea within the laver was clear as crystal because Laodicea having ended, the Church Age saints have all been redeemed. Here the sea is mingled with Fire and the 144,000, having been baptized with the Holy Ghost and with Fire are passing over the sea of brass in martyrdom as foretold in Revelation 6:11 and described in Revelation 14, "having gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the other side [or shore] of the sea of glass, having the harps of God," singing songs of victory and deliverance like their forefathers who crossed victorious through the Red Sea (I Corinthians 10:1-2).

"And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvelous are your works, Lord God Omnipotent; just and true are Your ways, O King of the nations (Ezekiel 21:25-27; Galatians 3:28-29). Which of Your enemies shall not fear You (Exodus 15:14-16), O Lord, and glorify Your Name? for You alone are holy: for all Gentiles will come and worship before You (Jeremiah 16:19); for the righteousness of Your judgments is clearly understood" and vindicated by the revelation of Israel's Seven Trumpet Judgments and the "investigation judgments" of the Seven Vials by which You distinguished the foolish virgin from the false church.

As Brother Branham explains, "Now, we find out also in this that the Sixth Seal now being opened, it was for a threefold purpose. Now, here was the purposes: The first thing was that the sleeping virgins had to go through the tribulation period for purification. She had to be purged of her sins of unbelief . . ."

(The non-elect un-believing and make-believing church members of each Church Age were made to drink the curse of the vial in the antitype of Israel's ordeal of Jealousy (Numbers 5:11-31) as explained in Revelation 15:1, 6– 16:21. The foolish virgin are justified and sanctified but they are not born-again, perhaps because they were slothful in "making their calling and election sure," or perhaps they were never presented with the revelation of the Message for their day because their pastor was not born-again, or being baptized into the Pentecostal part of the Body he owned the letter but not the Spirit of the end-time Message, or because we did not testify to them– Ed).

"Now, she's not the Bride, but it's the church, the pure people that didn't have the opportunity, maybe, to receive the message, or in some way that they were blinded by these false prophets, and they didn't get a chance, and yet they're really sincere in heart, and God knows their heart, and here they're purged during this time."

"You notice that another purging time; that's for Israel when she gathers. That's the second fold. God purges Israel in the tribulation period. Out of the millions that'll gather there, there'll be a selected one hundred and forty-four thousand, and they will be purged also. God's purging Israel.

(Israel will be born-again under the judgment of the Seventh Trumpet during the time of the great tribulation, also known as "Jacob's trouble" (Jeremiah 30:1-10; Isaiah 66:8). The 144,000 will then be hunted down like dogs and martyred, every one of them, by the apostate church and Jews who have taken the mark of the beast (Revelation 6:11; 14:12-20).

Under the Fifth Seal (Revelation 6:9-11), which runs from Calvary to the manifestation of the Sixth Seal and Seventh Trumpet, we find Israelites under the blood of the altar of sacrifice whose names are on the Book of Life. Their type is our foolish virgin, they lived truly faithful to all the Word they knew and died in martyrdom for the testimony of Moses. These will be granted into eternal Life at the White Throne Judgment because in the providence of God they have been blinded by their rabbis for the sake of us Gentiles– Ed).

"Notice, the whole earth is to be purged. There will be such a thing that the moon, stars, and all nature will be purged. You see what it is? The earth is renewing herself, being purged, getting ready for the millennium. The millennium's coming up. And see, everything that's got any filth in it is to be purged during the Sixth Seal."

"Now, now, do you notice on the opening of this Seventh Seal, it's also in a threefold mystery. This one I will speak and have spoke, that it is the mystery of the seven thunders. The seven thunders in heaven will unfold this mystery. It'll be right at the coming of Christ, because Christ said no one knew when He would return" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 575:1-5).

The threefold mystery of opening of the Seventh Seal is the descent of Jesus and the New Testament saints in WORD form in the "shout" of the Message in Revelation 10:1-7, which is the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6 that bestirred the wise and foolish virgin from their denominational slumber, and called them out from Rome and her once Protestant daughter churches into "the wilderness" (Revelation 18:4).

Revelation 19:1-16 reports Israel's revelation of Christ's parousia. In the first four verses our wedding guests, the Hebrew saints already in heaven bless the Lord's Presence with their brethren on earth, rejoicing with praise and thanksgiving for the destruction of the accursed harlot church: "After these things (the Woes, Trumpets, Seals and Vials of God's wrath), I heard as a great voice of a multitude in heaven, saying, Hallelujah; The Salvation, and the glory, and the power of our God: for true and just are His judgments: for He judged the great harlot, that corrupted the earth with her fornication, and avenged the blood of His servants at her hand (by the nuclear destruction of Rome in the second half of Daniel's Seventieth week. The first judgment on Mystery Babylon and her harlot daughters in the hypocritical disguise of Christ's church (Revelation 18:5-20) is to be followed by judgment on the beast and the false prophet (Revelation 19:17-21). Not until the traditions of nicolaitanism and sectarian Balaamism of institutionalized antichristianity are destroyed can the true Church appear to Israel as a virgin without spot or blemish as His Bride). And a second time they said, Hallelujah. And her smoke ascends forever and ever."

(Hallelujah is Hebrew meaning, "Praise JAH" the self existent One Who Is, NOT Jehovah, which means "He who will be, is, and was." Jah implies His PRESENCE now, and is found first in the Psalm 104:35 on the destruction of the ungodly. Israel, especially, will join in the Hallelujah, when "her warfare is accomplished" and her foe destroyed).

"And the twenty four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped God who sits on the throne, saying, Amen; Hallelujah."

In recognizing the parousia of Messiah, Israel must also recognize His wife, for through the invisible marriage union the two are one Spirit in whom God will be worshipped throughout eternity (I Corinthians 6:17). Prior to the parousia of their King and His Queen, Israel saw only her externalized false image, the Great Harlot, for the true church, her simple, retired existence heretofore concealed by the gaudy and ostentatious Harlot, was invisible.

Brother Branham typed her as the Cinderella-like orphan cousin of several ugly prepossessing denominational sisters on an Armour and Swift ranch. Her denominational mother and her father, Organization, were both dead, and she was made to wear hand-me-downs and do the dirty work, like washing the dishes and cleaning house. One week they were to entertain the Son of the Owner of the cattle on a thousand hills. He was looking for a wife, so her denominational cousins painted their faces and dressed up like tarts. She kept out of sight doing the kitchen work in her ragged dress, but He noticed and saw in her the character He sought in a wife.

In about four year's time when Israel is born in one day, that holy nation will discern their Queen by faith, not by sight, in the character of Christ's Bride contrasted with the vulgarity that is the world church system, and praise the Lord. Israel's parousia will "confirm the prophetic vision, and anoint the most Holy," New Jerusalem, the Bride of Christ, with joy.

In the following six verses, the Hebrew saints already in heaven bless the Bride, the Lamb's wife who has clothed Herself as His glory in the righteousness of the Lamb: "And a voice came forth from the throne, saying, Give praise to our God, all His servants, those that fear Him, both the small and the great. And I heard as the voice of a great throng [on earth], and as a voice of many waters [the multitudes previously oppressed by the Harlot], and as a voice of strong thunderings, saying, Hallelujah: for the Lord our God the All-ruler has assumed the Kingdom. Let us be glad and exult, we will give to Him the glory [so long alienated from him]: for the marriage of the Lamb came, and his wife prepared herself. And to her was given that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteousnesses of the (individual) saints.

And He said, Write, Blessed are they who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. This is THUS SAITH THE LORD. And I fell before his feet to worship Him. And He said, Take heed: I am a fellowservant and of your brethren that have the witness of Jesus: worship God: for the witness of Jesus is the spirit of the prophecy".

Throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end-time Bride. As we read in Revelation 1:1, God gave the revelation to Jesus Messiah after His ascension; He in turn passed the Message to His angel, who revealed it to John. In Revelation 1:19, John was commanded to write the visions, however, as he was about to record the Messages of the Seven Thunders a Voice from heaven commanded, "Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not . . . but in the days of the Voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to deliver his Message the mystery of God spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets should be finished. . . Hence there will be silence in heaven for a short space of time while the Bride prepares herself by dressing in THUS SAITH THE LORD by the Message of the seventh angel" (Revelation 10:4, 7; 8:1; Acts 3:21). Since the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals to the time of the end and revealed exclusively to the angel of the Laodicean Church Age, we can be certain this angel John saw and heard when he looked from the day of the Lord back through time, was Brother Branham. Furthermore, we know John is our type, for of all the dispensations that have studied this Book we alone have understood Its Message.

As God veiled Himself behind the created Man whom Abraham worshipped in Genesis 18, and identified Himself as the Logos by discerning the thoughts and intents of Abraham and Sarah's hearts (Hebrews 4:12), He veiled Himself behind the virgin-born flesh of Jesus Messiah and identified Himself by the same sign (John 1:42, 47-50; 4:16-29, etc), and in these last days has veiled Himself behind William Branham, a sinner saved by grace, to reveal "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever" (Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New): discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart "as it was in the days of Lot." This was the LAST sign Jesus promised us before the end of the Gentile dispensation (Luke 17:28-30). Like certain Pentecostals, John was overawed by the Supernatural display that reproduced the ministry of Jesus Christ, he fell down in worship and was reproved by Brother Branham (Revelation 19:10-11; 22:6-9).

In verses eleven to sixteen we are given a preview of Israel's parousia of the Son of man as their Warrior-Prince coming to destroy Rome (and the Edomite so-called Jews (Isaiah 63:2) whom the Talmud identifies as Imperial Rome). Like Zechariah 14:4, this is symbolic and Spiritual, not literal and physical. What Israel visualize is a symbolic pantomime of the fullness of the Word coming to war against the beast, not the physical return of the glorified Man. In verse thirteen His garment is stained with His Own Blood, shed for even the ungodly that trample it underfoot; hereafter His garments will be dyed with the blood of His enemies.

"And I saw the heaven opened [a vision], and beheld a white horse; and His rider was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wars. His eyes were a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns bearing a Name that no one knows but Himself; He was clothed in a vesture dipped in blood: and His Name has come to be called The Word of God. And the armies in the heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and pure. And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, with which He should smite the Gentiles: and He shall shepherd them with an iron rod [at the White Throne Judgment]; and tread [Antichrist and his followers in] the winepress of the indignant fury of the wrath of God the All-ruler. And He has on His vesture and on His thigh a Name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS".

This recognition and acknowledgment by the 144,000 of their King and Queen is the essential precondition for "the restoration of the Kingdom to Israel" (Acts 1:7). Messiah's parousia to Israel will usher in the Millennium, followed by their martyrdom, Armageddon, the binding of Satan, and the consummation of the present world system along with all life on earth.

Jeremiah 51 prophesied the sudden fall and destruction of natural Babylon, the first Gentile world empire to hold dominion over Israel in Judah. Like the souls now imprisoned in her spiritual antitype, the captives were warned to flee lest they be partakers in her punishment (Revelation 18:1-4). Jeremiah 51:7-8, "Babylon has been a golden cup in the Lord's hand that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken of her wine (Revelation 14:8; 17:4); therefore the nations are mad [with His vengeance]. Babylon is suddenly fallen and destroyed . . ." Her friends and confederates [like the Black Nobility, merchants and seafarers (Revelation 17:12-18; 18:2, 9-19), who behold her fall, are invited to her aid. They reply, her case is incurable and that she must be left to her fate. After the speech of her confederates, the Judeans celebrate with thanksgivings the faithfulness of their covenant God: a perfect type. As ancient Babylon was destroyed by an enemy from the North, Mystery Babylon the Great will also be destroyed by an enemy from the North (Ezekiel 38-39; Daniel 11:40-44; Revelation 17:16– 18:20).

God used the overweening pride and iniquity of idolatrous Babylon to incite the nations to hatred. This will be the outcome of Rome's tyranny, leading to her destruction after she breaks her agreement with the International banksters in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth week.

Christ's second or parousia Coming to His end-time Bride brought us the perfect interpretation of the Word with the spirit of discernment (Hebrews 4:12; 5:14) since Christ is now in the office of Son of man "with authority to execute judgment." When the members of His end-time Bride are born-again and recognize His 'parousia,' we crown Christ King of kings and are one with THUS SAITH THE LORD of the Judge (Revelation 5:8-14).

However, as "the rain (or Holy Spirit) falls on the just and the unjust" (Matthew 5:45; Acts 2:17) the sinners also sense this Spirit of judgment, and without discernment the apostate leaders of our once Christian West have received a perverse spirit of strong delusion sent by God to drive them "mad with His vengeance." These madmen are inflicting self-righteous injustice and doing whatever it takes to maintain a private fiat monetary monopoly based upon debt instead of a financial system that reflects God's true abundance. Rome's death knell of the abrogation of her agreement with the International banksters in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week will signal Christ's parousia to 144,000 elect Israelites, not Jews, and the birth of that nation in one day will usher in the Millennium. eb450.htm

ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we welcome your fellowship in the garden of God's Word.

Our well-loved Brother Trevis White, Pastor of Living Word Fellowship, passed beyond the curtain of time Monday morning, having finished his work by which the Lord has blessed the lives of many. Our thoughts and prayers remain with his wife, Sister Jacobie, their family and friends, and his congregation. He will be missed.

"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints." Trev will rise. Hallelujah! He will rise. On that resurrection morning Trev will rise and appear to some Brother or Sister raise their faith for translation grace.

The natural types the Spiritual. Public knowledge is always years behind the truth, so truth is always stranger than fiction. Whatever is made public is always many years behind the latest developments. Today it is fiction we believe, and fact we shun. Our Lord Jesus Christ said long ago: "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

How many who call themselves Christians understand Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming took place in 1963, and that He is here now? The truth is stranger than fiction. He came "as a thief in the night" under the manifestation of the Sixth Vial, just before the pouring out of the Seventh Vial at the opening of the Sixth Seal and Seventh Trumpet, which call Israel to her Feast of Trumpets, and catch up the living Bride with the Church Age saints to meet the Lord in the Air.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

The Melbourne Minutes: New Downing Street Memos from Down Under

November 28 2006– More than a year before the United States launched an endless war on Iraq in what President George W. Bush told Congress was an urgently needed action to prevent an attack with non-existent weapons by non-Iraqi terrorists . . . Eleven months before Bush told British Prime Minister Tony Blair that a good way to start a war on Iraq would be to paint planes with UN colors, fly them low, and get them shot at . . . Five months before the Downing Street Minutes were taken at a meeting revealing the knowledge top British officials had of the secret war plans of the Bush administration . . . Just a week or two before several of the Downing Street Memos recorded US-British discussions of the coming war . . .

On February 27, 2002 - just five months after 15 Saudis, 2 Lebanese, and 2 Yemenis flew airplanes into US buildings—Trevor Flugge, who was then chairman of AWB, the Australian Wheat Board, a private corporation, told AWB's board that John Dauth, who was then Australia's ambassador to the United Nations, had revealed to Flugge the plans of the US and Australian governments for war on Iraq. Tragically for war profiteers everywhere, somebody took minutes of the meeting... Full story: truthout.org

Siege and Seizure in Korea

November 27, 2006– Traveling around the world these past months has given me an education about American history that majoring in the subject at UCLA never did. I have witnessed firsthand what US imperialism and militarism can do to countries and societies. I sat with indigenous Hawaiian tribal leaders who shared their tragic stories of how US colonialism and militarism ruined their fishing waters and turned their lands into super-fund sites. I stood in solidarity with Irish peace activists who want the US military off their soil and want US transport and rendition planes to stop using Shannon Airport to land for refueling. These are just a few stories. Everywhere I go, the local populations have stories of greed, crime, corruption, pollution, etc., that all go hand in glove wherever the US military is present. Not to mention the "hot" war zones, where hundreds of civilians are murdered, maimed or displaced on a daily basis. . . Full story: truthout.org

The God Delusion

This is an excerpt of a recent address delivered at the Free Library of Philadelphia in America by eminent scientist Richard Dawkins speaking about his reasons for being, as you'll hear, a 'tooth fairy agnostic.' He gets this part pretty well right.

Christianity claims to be a monotheistic religion, but you have to wonder sometimes. Rivers of medieval ink, not to mention blood, have been squandered over the mystery of the Trinity and in suppressing deviations such as the Arian heresy. Arius of Alexandria in the 4th century AD denied that Jesus was con-substantial, i.e. of the same substance or essence, with God. You're probably asking, What on earth could that possibly mean? Substance, what substance? What exactly do you mean by essence? Very little, seems the only reasonable reply. Yet the controversy split Christendom down the middle for a century and the Emperor Constantine ordered that all copies of Arius' book should be burned. Splitting Christendom by splitting hairs, such has ever been the way of theology.

Do we have one God in three parts, or three gods in one? The Catholic Encyclopedia clears up the matter for us in a masterpiece of theological close reasoning. 'In the unity of the godhead there are three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; these three persons being truly distinct, one from another. Thus in the words of the Athanasian Creed, the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three gods but one god.

As if that were not clear enough, the Encyclopedia quotes the 3rd century theologian, St. Gregory, the Miracle Worker. 'There is therefore nothing created, nothing subject to another in the Trinity, nor is there anything that has been added as though it once had not existed, but had entered afterwards. Therefore the Father has never been without the Son, or the Son without the Spirit and this same Trinity is immutable and unalterable forever.'

Whatever miracles may have earned St. Gregory his nickname, they were not miracles of honest lucidity. His words convey the characteristically obscurantist flavour of theology, which unlike science, or most other branches of human scholarship, has not moved on in 18 centuries. Thomas Jefferson, as so often, got it right when he said, 'Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct, before reason can act upon them, and no man ever had a distinct idea of the Trinity. It is the mere abracadabra of the mountebanks calling themselves the priests of Jesus.'

Jefferson heaped ridicule on the doctrine that, as he put it, 'there are three Gods' in his critique of Calvinism. But it is especially the Roman Catholic branch of Christianity that pushes its recurrent flirtation with polytheism towards runaway inflation. The Trinity is joined by Mary, Queen of Heaven, a goddess in all but name, who surely runs God himself a close second as a target of prayers. The pantheon is further swollen by an army of saints, whose intercessory power makes them, if not demigods, well worth approaching on their own specialist subjects. The Catholic community forum hopefully lists 5,120 saints, together with their areas of expertise, which include abdominal pain, abuse victims, anorexia, arms dealers, blacksmiths, broken bones, bomb technicians and bowel disorders, to venture no further than the Bs.

Pope John Paul II created more saints than all his predecessors of the past several centuries put together. And he had a special affinity with the Virgin Mary. His polytheistic hankerings were dramatically demonstrated in 1981 when he suffered an assassination attempt in Rome, and attributed his survival to intervention by Our Lady of Fatima, a maternal hand guided the bullet. One cannot help wondering why she didn't guide it to miss him altogether. Others might think the team of surgeons who operated on him for six hours deserved at least a share of the credit. But perhaps their hands too were maternally guided. The relevant point is that it wasn't just Our Lady, who in the Pope's opinion guided the bullet, but specifically Our Lady of Fatima. Presumably Our Lady of Lourdes, Our Lady of Guadeloupe, Our Lady of Medjugorje, Our Lady of Akita, Our Lady of Zeitoun, Our Lady of Garabandal, and Our Lady of Knock, were busy on other errands at the time. . .

Message of H.E. Dr. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to the False Prophet

Were we not faced with the activities of the US administration in this part of the world and the negative ramifications of those activities on the daily lives of our peoples, coupled with the many wars and calamities caused by the US administration as well as the tragic consequences of US interference in other countries . . . Then, there would have been little urgency to have a dialogue with you . . .

The US administration does not accept accountability before any organization, institution or council. The US administration has undermined the credibility of international organizations, particularly the United Nations and its Security Council. . .

The sad experience of invading Iraq is before us all. What has blind support for the Zionists by the US administration brought for the American people? It is regrettable that for the US administration, the interests of these occupiers supersede the interests of the American people and of the other nations of the world. What have the Zionists done for the American people that the US administration considers itself obliged to blindly support these infamous aggressors? Is it not because they have imposed themselves on a substantial portion of the banking, financial, cultural and media sectors? Full story: truthout.org

The Beast and the False Prophet

Revelation 12:7-13, "There was war in heaven: Michael and His angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, but they were defeated. So the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."

"And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ is come: for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them day and night before our God has been thrown down. For the Church Age saints have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the Word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death".

"Rejoice O heavens, and you who dwell therein. Woe to the earth and the sea, for the Devil has come down to you with raging anger, because he knows that his time is short. And when the dragon found himself cast down to earth, he persecuted the woman (Israel) who brought forth the man Child.

This prophecy will be fulfilled under the manifestation of the Sixth Seal and Seventh Trumpet at the close of the Gentile dispensation when Satan is cast out of heaven, and all his angels with him. What is heaven? Heaven consists of the Logos or Word. It is the mind of God. Who are Satan's angels? Who but the non-elect, whose names are not written in the Lamb's Book of Life, and have either been blotted from or were never in the Book of Life. These will be dumbfounded when they see the Holy Roman Empire revive, pay homage to her then Devil-incarnate pope and his image, or receive his doctrine, which is to take the mark of the beast (Revelation 13:8, 16-18; 17:8). What is a fallen angel but a denominational minister who has not maintained his estate in the Word of God and holiness but abandoned his life of faith and prayer for the security and social acceptability of denominationalism. Many of these are sincerely doing God a service contrary to His will. They are souls imprisoned now, enchained by darkness until the White Throne Judgment, and know it not (II Peter 2:4; Jude 6; Revelation 3:17-20). These are the "stars of heaven that fall to earth" at the opening of the Sixth Seal (Newsletter 449; Revelation 6:12-13; Isaiah 34:4; Matthew 24:29). Their people, who should be messengers of Light, will inevitably be fallen angels also.

After His crucifixion, Jesus descended to the fifth dimension and continued ministering. His testimony vindicated the Old Testament saints but condemned the unbelievers; having crossed the line from mercy to judgment their names have been removed from the Book of Life and they could not be saved. Now His end-time Bride is preaching to souls in prison, perchance one among them might be "plucked as a brand from the fire" (I Peter 3:13-20; Revelation 10:8-11). God is known by revelation from Above, not debate from below. Titus 3:9-11, "Avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the Law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man who is a heretic after the first and second admonition reject; knowing that he who is such is subverted, and sins, being condemned of himself" (Hosea 4:6; Luke 10:16; Hebrews 6:8).

The revival of the Holy (sic) Roman Empire is portrayed in Revelation 13:1-10. Whereas in the days of our Lord the brutal, venomous and untamable wild beast of Revelation 12:3 represented Imperial Rome with seven crowns upon its heads, as the "angel" William Branham showed John in Revelation 17:7-10, her military and political power received a death stroke. But the First Nicaea Council of AD325 revived and transformed her into Papal Rome, and she rose up out of the sea of nations into an empire that would rule over "many waters . . . peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues." The "crowns were now upon its ten horns, and names of blasphemy were on its heads"—Lutheran, Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal and other blasphemous names—each calling itself the Church of God but representing nothing more than the world with God's Name on it. Rome is the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth (Revelation 17:1-5).

If we compare Revelation 13:2 with Daniel 7:7-8, 19-25 will we see this beast is the final form of the fourth Gentile world empire that will rule Israel and the whole world unto the consummation; and behind the clerical robes of a pseudo-Christian exterior we see the composite attributes of the previous three beasts. Satan gave the beast his own power, and his throne or earthly headquarters has moved from Babylon to Pergamum, to Rome. Soon it will move to Jerusalem from where Satan will exercise his full authority. From that time no one will be able to make war with her incarnate pope, for Rome will control the wealth of the world.

Earthquakes at the close of the Gentile dispensation will sink Los Angeles (Revelation 18:21-24) and divide the mount of Olives (Zechariah 14:4-5), destroying the Mosque of Omar, and igniting the "hot" stage of a brief World War III in which Russia will attack and invade the United States. Incarnate in the Pope, Satan will establish consensus among the world's religions which all have offices in the Vatican, and restore peace. And the inhabitants of earth will, "worship the dragon (Satan) who gave power to the beast: and they will worship the beast, saying, Who is as great as the beast? Who is able fight against him"?

Martihal law will be introduced in every nation following this total upset of nature involving earthquakes of unprecedented magnitude, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis. Christ's Church and the foolish virgin will become hated because the love of God will constrain us to preach to those who are completely lost, explaining by the Scripture the significance of what has taken place and emphasizing the absolute necessity of refusing the doctrine and service of Rome and her apostate (once) Protestant daughters. To the carnal mind this will seem like sedition for it is their religious institutions administer disaster relief worldwide. As Brother Branham explained, "Rome is not going it alone. Her daughters are right with her and she will take over absolute authority by the World Council of Churches. This may seem farfetched to some but actually it is very plain for all to see because right now the churches are controlling politics and at the opportune time will manifest exactly how great is that control. This ecumenical move will end up with Rome at the head even though the people did not envision it that way. This is so because in Revelation 17:3-6 it states that the whore, Mystery Babylon is seated on the beast. She is controlling the last or fourth empire. This Roman Church is doing that. With the world church system under her Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system) will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world. Thus all the people have to belong to the world church system or be at the mercy of the elements for they cannot buy or sell without the mark of the beast in the hand or head. This mark in the head means that they will have to take the doctrine of the world church system which is trinitarianism, etc., and the mark in the hand which means to do the will of the world church. With this great power the church systems will persecute the true Bride. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching, etc. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the Antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches the true church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His Bride for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 376:1).

It is in this time of unprecedented trouble that Satan is cast down to earth and incarnates the pope of Rome. Through her association with Rothschild, Rome will control the gold of the world.

The Treaty of Paris of 1763 designated King George III "Arch-Treasurer and Prince Elector of the Holy Roman Empire." And "according to the Encyclopedia Judaica the Rothschilds bear the title "Guardians of the Vatican Treasury." The Vatican Treasury, of course, holds the imperial wealth of Rome. Imperial wealth grows in proportion to its victories in war—as the Jesuit empowerment Regimini militantis ecclesiae implies, the Church-at-War is more necessary than the Church-at-Peace. According to H. Russell Robinson's illustrated Armour of Imperial Rome, Caesarean soldiers protect themselves in battle with shields painted red. Since the soldiery is the State's most valuable resource (the Council of Trent admitted this in preferring the Jesuits to all other religious orders), it is easy to understand why the red shield was identified with the very life of the Church. Hence, the appropriateness of the name Rothschild, German for "red shield." The appointment of Rothschild gave the black papacy absolute financial privacy and secrecy. Who would ever search a family of orthodox Jews for the key to the wealth of the Roman Catholic Church? I believe this appointment explains why the House of Rothschild is famous for helping nations go to war. It is fascinating that, as Meyer Rothschild's sons grew into the family business, the firm took on the title Meyer Amschel Rothschild und Sohne, which gives us the notariqon, MARS. Isn't Mars the Roman God of War, whose heavenly manifestation is "the red planet"? There is powerful cabala here, and there's hardly an acre of inhabitable earth that hasn't been affected by it in some way (Tupper Saussy, Rulers of Evil. p. 160-161).

In the final words of his book The Vatican Empire, Nino Lo Bello states, "While the Vatican has remained secretive about its fiscal policy, it has never believed that the investment of Church money was either illegal, objectionable in principle, or contrary to good conscience. In seeking to resolve the conflict between that which is to be rendered to God and that which is to be rendered to Caesar, the Vatican has developed its own special modus vivendi between the sacred and the secular. The view of the pope as a kind of chairman of the board may shock some readers. But let us remember that the Vatican is a remarkable, centuries-old institution, and that, when it comes to money, it is one that is fully in tune with the spirit of the times."

"This writer foresees the day, perhaps a thousand years from now, when the Vatican will cease functioning as a religious institution and take up, on a full-time basis, the duties of a large-scale business corporation. The transition will not be as difficult to effectuate as one might suspect. For just as Catholicism will decline and eventually withdraw from the ranks of the major religions, so, too, will Church money find its way into nearly every area of the free world's economy. Then, at last, the tycoon on the Tiber will shed the mantle of piety; then, at last, the Vatican will expose the full extent of its financial interests" (Nino Lo Bello, The Vatican Empire, p. 185-186).

This will be fatally apparent to all dissenters during Daniel's Seventieth Week (Revelation 13:8, 16-18; 18:24). Rome is a beast in sheep's clothing, her false religion merely a "front" whereby she has disarmed the world whilst she steals absolute power of one world government.

The Vatican owns hundreds of banking companies in its own right but likes to maintain its funds in numbered Swiss bank accounts, one reason . . . is because the Swiss franc can provide protection against inflation and devaluation . . . the Swiss franc is guaranteed up to 130 percent by gold. So, because Switzerland's money is "hard money," the Vatican holds francs and exchanges them for the legal tender of another country when needed" (Ibid, pp.114-119).

Early in the 19th century the Pope approached the Rothschilds to borrow money. The Rothschilds were very friendly with the Pope, causing one journalist to sarcastically say "Rothschild has kissed the hand of the Pope. . . Order has at last been re-established" (Derek Wilson, Rothschild: The Wealth and Power of a Dynasty, p. 101).

Researcher Eustice Mullins writes that the Rothschilds took over all the financial operations of the worldwide Catholic Church in 1823 (The Curse of Canaan, p.125). Today the large banking and financial business of the Catholic Church is an extensive system interlocked with the Rothschilds and the rest of the International Banking system. The great wealth of the Russian Czars was entrusted to the Rothschilds, $35 million with the Rothschild's of England, and $80 million in the Rothschild's Paris bank. The Rothschilds financed the Russian Revolution which confiscated vast portions of the Orthodox Church's wealth. They have been able to prevent (due to their power) the legitimate heirs of the Czars' fortune to withdraw a penny of the millions deposited in a variety of their banks. The Mountbatten's, who are related to the Rothschilds, led the court battles to prevent the claimants from withdrawing any of the fortune. In other words, the money they invested in the Russian Revolution, was not only paid back directly by the Bolshevists in millions of dollar of gold, but by grabbing the huge deposits of the Czars' wealth, the Rothschilds gained what is now worth over $50 Billions (Mullins, Eustace. The World Order, p.5).

"A number of rich Catholics undertook to organize a competitor bank to rival the Rothschild power . . . sometime about 1830. The Rothschilds crushed it. The Jewish Encyclopedia (Vol. 2, p. 497) admits that: "Following the failure of the Catholic bank, Union Generals, leaving the Rothschilds still more absolutely the undisputed leaders of French finance, but leaving also a legacy of hatred which had much influence on the growth of the anti-Semitic movement in France."

It says further: "It is a somewhat curious sequel to the attempt to set up a Catholic competitor to the Rothschilds that at the present time (1905) the latter are the guardians of the papal treasure."

If this latter statement is true the Rothschilds control in addition to their own fortune the immense liquid resource of the Catholic Church, which is second only to the Rothschilds in wealth and power. It is probably not literally true since the private banking firm did not do commercial banking. It is likely that the papal treasure is deposited with the Bank of England or some other bank "front," but even so it contributes to the Rothschild power" (George Armstrong, Rothschild Money Trust, p. 42). (Prior to 1946 the Bank of England was a Rothschild bank. Newsletters 171 and 269).

The earthquake that sinks Los Angeles will cause the collapse of the US dollar, which is the currency of world trade. This will bankrupt nations, multinational and small corporations, and ruin the International banksters whose wealth is debit money in the form of electronic records and worthless paper, mortgages on property that will be instantly devalued to a fraction of its pre-earthquake valuation. In addition, bonds, shares and other financial instruments such as superannuation, insurance and assurance policies will be worthless unless the US dollar is refinanced.

Brother Branham said, "You watch for a depression, brother. You think you've seen something; you just wait after while. You haven't seen nothing" (Jezebel Religion, p. 22:100). Rome (aka Rothschild and the Illuminati) with her control of the world's gold will reach a seven-year covenant with International Jews to refinance the US dollar. As prophesied in Daniel 9:27, "The prince from Rome (Daniel 9:26) shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations (forcing the mark of the beast) he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolator".

Revelation 13:5-6, "the beast was given a mouth to speak proud words and blasphemies, and granted authority to control the earth for forty-two months. Throughout this time he blasphemed against God, and against His Name, and His abode, and those who dwell in heaven." That is, during the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week while Israel's two prophets are ministering the Feast of the Trumpets to an election of blood Israelites.

It is important at this point that we distinguish the secular beast, which is a revivified Holy Roman Empire comprising the ten kings or Black Nobility families that once ruled the ten nation states into which, upon its demise Rome fragmented, from its ecclesiastical partner, the Great Whore or Roman Catholic church that rides upon or controls this beast (Revelation 17:3). In this age of educated apostasy neither the nobility nor the commoners can long be intimidated by Roman superstitions without a quid pro quo, and will not allow the hubris of religious dignitaries to overcome sound reason, so when Rome breaks her covenant, the secular beast and these ten kings will hate the Roman Catholic church and burn Vatican City State off the face of the earth by atomic fire (Revelation 17:16; 18:18). All religion and Communism are to be destroyed, and replaced by the pure Luciferian doctrine.

The Bible is the story of God and Lucifer incarnating themselves into two kingdoms. One imparting eternal Life through faith and free will by His Holy Spirit, the other bringing death through indoctrination and coercion by his lying spirit. Satan, who is called the Dragon or great serpent (Revelation 20:2) and the beast (Revelation 11:7), has his earthly headquarters in Rome, which likewise is called the Dragon (Revelation 12 and 13) and the beast (Revelation 13). When Satan is cast out from heaven and incarnates the pope, he will no longer be called the false prophet but the beast (Revelation 13:3-6, 17-18; 14:9-11; 17:10-11).

It is important for us to recognize that at this time, the two lamb-like horns of the beast from the earth, secular and spiritual powers, the World Council of Churches and the United States, will be joined in a union of church and state, an image unto the beast of the revived Holy Roman empire, and inherit the title false prophet (Revelation 13:11-15; 16:13; 19:20; 20:10). This image unto the beast will "perform unimaginable miracles, even making (nuclear) fire descend from heaven onto earth in the sight of men, and by means of those miracles which he is authorized to perform in the presence of the beast, he deceives those that dwell on the earth, telling them that they should make a (pseudo-Protestant) image to the Roman beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had authority to give life to the image of the beast that the image of the beast should demand, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed." United States under her final president, George Bush II, is speaking lies like the Dragon and exercising all the power of the first beast in cruel torture, rape and rapine, in practice for the great tribulation when it will force the mark of the first beast which will control the second beast by the power of gold with which it refinances the US dollar (Revelation 13:13-15). Revelation 13:14 and 19:20 identify the image of the beast as the false prophet because he persuades and forces all whose names are not in the Lamb's Book of Life and not written in or predestinated to be blotted from the Book of Life to receive the mark of the beast or serve him.

In mimicry of John 16:13-15, this apostate (once) Protestant false prophet speaks of himself but commands all men to worship the first beast. Brother Branham said that the false prophet started with the first pope. But when the last pope is incarnate, he is called the beast. Then the United States in union with the World Council of (once Protestant) Churches will become the last false prophet who gather, indeed force, "the kings of the earth and of the whole world to the battle of Armageddon" (Revelation 16:14; 17:14; 19:20). East against West, Judaeo-Communism against Judaeo-Catholicism. Unclean spirits against unclean spirits.

Various researchers, including David Icke, in his book The Biggest Secret, point out that all 42 men who were Presidents of the USA are related, and that 33 of the Presidents can be traced back to the bloodline of Charlemagne, who in the year 800 was crowned by Pope Leo III to be Holy Roman Emperor, the first head of an empire that would last over 1,000 years! This should be setting off major alarm bells in your mind. Like this is no coincidence. The odds of all 42 Presidents being related, and this just randomly happening, are billions to one (redicecreations.com). The English Royal Family is actually Germans Khazars whose family name is Guelph.

Rome's unprovoked hatred for Islam, shared by the (once) Protestant churches and prosecuted by the military forces of the City of London, is quite rational considering Islam's third most holy place is the Dome of the Rock situated on the Temple site coveted by Rome and required by 'the City' for its end-game. If Roman Catholics and so-called Protestants read Genesis 16:11-12 they would see that Ishmael is caught up in so much internal discord, thanks to 'the City,' he is no threat, and that the Iraq war "is [not] all about oil, stupid," but Satan's ambition to usurp David's greater Son and relocate his headquarters from Rome to Mount Moriah where God met with the congregation of ancient Israel in the temple, north of Mount Zion, "the City of the great King" (Isaiah 14:12-14; Psalms 48:2).

When the Holy Spirit is taken from earth in the "rapture" or resurrection and translation of the Church, "that man of sin, the son of perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped so that he as God sits in the temple of God showing himself that he is God" will be revealed to the apostate world (II Thessalonians 2:3-7). As the one responsible for bringing a new world order out of the chaos of World War III and the first president of the world, he "sits" as by right of one upon whom a kingdom has been confirmed, occupying the place of power and majesty in opposition to Him who "sits on the right hand of the Majesty on high" (Hebrews 1:3), and who shall come to "sit" there where the usurper had sat (Matthew 26:64). "In the temple of God," clearly shows us that the grand Antichrist arises from within the world church system. "By flatteries," he will cause not only Gentiles from around the earth (Daniel 11:32-45; Revelation 11:10), but many Jews and also apostates of the "the tribes" of Israel (Revelation 11:8-9) to own him as their long-looked-for Messiah, in the "city where our Lord was crucified," after the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week when he breaks the covenant he has made with the International Jews and usurps divine honors.

Revelation is a Book of symbols; Satan impersonates these symbols and the Work they represent. To illustrate: the way into God's Presence is guarded by four living creatures representing the four tribal groups of Israel who camped around the Tabernacle in the wilderness, and by the four Gospels that guard the way to His throne under the New Testament. These demand the evidence of faith in the present Truth before granting the believer permission to advance. In our dispensation we enter by the northern gate which is guarded by the Gospel of John, the living creature with the face of an Eagle, providing our faith is in perfect concord with the testimony of the Gospels guarding the other three gates.

Satan's counterpart of the four living creatures is represented by the four brutal, venomous and untamable wild beasts of Daniel 7:1-8, which are the four Gentile world empires that rule over Israel from Nebuchadnezzar's overthrow of Judea to the consummation of all life on earth and the restoration of the kingdom to Israel by their faith in Christ's 'parousia' Coming and the birth of the nation in one day. These four beasts have worked to conquer the inhabitants of earth and forcibly establish the totalitarian one world government Satan offered to Jesus in Matthew 4:8-9. A beast represents a power, and although the identity or mask of the beast changes with his different acts, the spirit that rode the white, red and black horses is the power controlling the pale horse now. The power represented as the beasts of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Imperial Rome now controls the consummate beast of Papal Rome which is "diverse from all kingdoms, and will devour the whole earth (in one world government), and tread it down, and break it in pieces." Papal Rome is the "little horn" with "eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great things" (Daniel 7:8, 23).

Christ is typed as a beast, a lamb: so gentle the dove of like nature is not afraid to light on him. In Revelation 9:1-2, Satan is typed as the beast from the bottomless pit. After he is cast out from heaven he will evict the demons from the pope and incarnate him as "that man of sin, the son of perdition." Rome's incarnate pope is introduced without explanation as "the beast from the bottomless pit" (Revelation 11:7) because he had already been described in Daniel 7:3, 11, 20-25 as the leader of the fourth Gentile world empire (Revelation 13:1-4; 17:8).

Another symbol is the woman who is submissive to her Lord, represented by the elect of Israel who gave birth to Christ and crossed over the Law into the Son-Light of the Word (Revelation 12). She is also called the true Church, the Bride and wife of Christ (Revelation 19). This humble woman is impersonated by the materialistic, worldly false church and her harlot daughters (Revelation 17). Christ's Bride is caught up into Glory, to be ever with the Lord, while the false church will be burned with Fire in punishment for her adulteries.

Christ and Satan will meet at the battle of Armageddon. Riding His pure white horse, and called "Life," the Word of God, Christ is followed by the vindicated Word of resurrected saints who were in heaven, also riding on white horses (I Corinthians 15:48; Revelation 19:14). Riding his pale-coloured horse, Satan is called Death," and Hell followed with him" to perdition (Revelation 6:8; 17:8; 19:19-20; 20:10).

The armies following Satan to perdition or total loss in the lake of Fire are the multitudes who have received his trinitarian doctrine, which is the mark of the beast in their forehead, or served his will, which is the mark in the right hand. Those without the Seal of God who partake in the confederation of apostasy receive the mark of the beast. The "saved" who refuse, will be martyred. Those who reject our witness to the fullness of the Word are souls imprisoned now. By rejecting the Seal of God they have crossed from mercy to judgment; their names are blotted from the Book of Life and they bear the mark of the beast as Jesus foretold in Revelation 3:17-20, "and know it not".

When Jesus incarnates Himself into His people, His Life lives in them (John 17:21). John 14:19-20, 12, "Yet a little while, and the world will no longer see Me; but you will see me: because I live, you will live also. In the day in which you receive My Life you shall know that I am in My Father and you in Me and Me in you. . . In solemn truth I assure you, He who believes in me will also do the works that I do, and greater works than these will he do; because I go to the Father." Likewise, when Satan is incarnate in his church, he has them bound by his power and they do the same works he did. Satan was a murderer and liar in the beginning. And as the false prophet prophesies his followers into the mark of the beast they give themselves over to strong delusions to believe his lie and be damned by it. Now they too are liars, having a form of godliness but denying the revealed Word of God. Watch the third pull when our dispensation has ended and we are squeezed out of society. Brother Branham said, "It'll be absolutely to the total lost, but it will be for the Bride and the church" (Look Away to Jesus, p. 7:49).

Revelation 19:20-21, "And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles in his presence, 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 the lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant was 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".

The question is, who do the beast and the false prophet represent at this point in time? The beast is not Satan himself, for he is not cast into the Lake of Fire until Revelation 20:10, "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 forever and ever." This beast cannot be the Great Harlot, for she was judged in chapter 17 and blasted from the face of the earth in chapter 18 (Revelation 19:1-3) under the curse of the Seventh Vial of chapter 16:19. These are two men who are alive at the time of Armageddon when the pope and the false prophet are ruling "from the sides of the north."

According to Daniel 7:11, "I watched because of the boasting of the little horn (pope): I beheld even till the beast was slain, and his body destroyed, and given to the burning flame." The ten kings have by this time razed the Vatican. According to Daniel 2:40-45 and 9:27, Rome will rule the world until the consummation when she is slain by the Word of God who allows Communism to rise up and destroy her as He allowed Nebuchadnezzar to destroy apostate Judea.

Satan's objective is to incarnate a people for a kingdom that would usurp the Kingdom or Body of Christ, which is His Church. So the body of the fourth beast is those who have taken His mark of trinitarian worship, while the false prophet is the former of last pope before "that man of sin, the son of perdition" whom Satan will incarnate.

Revelation 14:9-13, "The angel Brother Branham followed the angels, Luther and Wesley, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, he shall drink of the wine of His indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: and the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever: and they who worship the beast and his image or receive the mark of his name have no rest day nor night. Let this encourage the saints to patiently every trial and persecution; these are they who that keep the Commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus". This is the event described in Revelation 19:20.

Malachi 3:16– 4:3, "They who feared the Lord spoke often of Him to each other: and the Lord listened and heard, and a Book of Remembrance was drawn up in which was recorded the names of those who feared Him and loved to think on His Name. They shall be Mine, says the Lord of hosts, in that day when I make up My jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spares an obedient and dutiful son. Then you will once more distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who serves Him not."

"For, behold, the day of judgment is coming, that shall burn as a furnace; then all the proud (Brother Branham said, "like the Americans and so forth") and all that do wickedly will be stubble, and the day that comes shall burn them up, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. But for you who reverence My Name the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in His beams; and you shall go forth leaping like calves from the stall. And you will tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts."  (Also see Matthew 3:12; 13:42, 50; Acts 1:6; 3:19-26).

Organized religion was never of God. The spirit of fornication is the spirit of organization, and all organizational systems will burn with the whore as the woman Eve should have been burnt with the Serpent (Leviticus 21:9). Only Jezebel, the Roman beast and her false prophet husband Ahab, its (once) Protestant image, are judged at the end of the great tribulation. All others will stand trial at the White Throne Judgment after the Millennium and the general resurrection.

Revelation 2:21-23, "I gave the Jezebel (the Roman Catholic Church), space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. And I will kill her children (the Protestant denominations) with death; and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the reins and hearts: and I will give to every one of you according to your works". eb451.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; you are welcome.

Cowards are always found in the upper, rather than the lower or middle ranks of a people. Intellect not governed by faith in God's Absolute obviously ruins character. The lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh and the pride of life outfox genius until deception becomes tradition supported by the Establishment. Such is religion—all religion.

Through television we are made to see things we do not understand so we will believe things that are not true. Video-taping makes events that took place weeks or months ago look as if they are in real time. Computer editing enables scenes to be spliced together to create completely artificial situations. Special effects have cost United States taxpayers over $500 billion, and the Iraqi and Afghan people their nations millions of lives in the television hoax of the War against the abstract noun "Terrorism." What we see on TV is not what it appears to be, but "seeing is believing." Such is politics.

Religion and politics, under Bankster control, are uniting for the second crucifixion of the Word and totalitarian hegemony over the world. This week we will feature the transcript of a court trial in which God's Word exposes Satan's Synagogue.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

German Globe maker 'establishes' Palestine

November 20, 2006– Pro-Israel advocacy groups campaign around the globe against the use of the word "Palestine," since no such country exists, but it turns out that globes being sold in Israel bear the term.

Billed as an educational toy that teaches young children geography the widely sold "Ravensburger Puzzle Ball Classic Globe" includes both Israel and Palestine. Although the product has been on the market for more than two years, all of those contacted by The Jerusalem Post, from toy store owners to the Israeli distributor to the German manufacturer, reacted with surprise when informed of the imaginative geography . . .

Toy and decorative globes either omitting the State of Israel or including a state of Palestine are nothing new. According to the Anti-Defamation League, the last occurrence was in 2002 when a product called the "Geo Genius World Globe" included Palestine, but no Israel. After being contacted by ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman the retailer promised to rectify the error immediately. Full story: jpost.com

Dialectics, Rockefellers, and Population Control

November 27, 2006– The power elite's favorite means of controlling people is the dialectical process. This often involves creating a "threat" to a particular population. For example, the terrorist threat after 9/11 caused Americans to be willing to give up certain of their freedoms which they had been unwilling to give up before 9/11. . . If the radical Islamic (Iranian) threat were greatly abated, Israel would have less incentive to become part of a world government. Just as the American population is being manipulated/controlled, so are the Israelis.

One of the families connected to the power elite is the Rockefeller family, as former Congressman William Dannemeyer has recounted that David Rockefeller told him that some men are born to rule, but most men are born to be ruled. Therefore, it would be useful to look at a chronology regarding the Rockefellers and population control . . . Full story: newswithviews.com  newswithviews.com  newswithviews.com

Kissinger to serve as Papal Adviser?

Vatican City, November 22, 2006– Over the course of his long and controversial career, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has had many titles. Now he reportedly has one more—adviser to the Pope.

Papal KeysAccording to the Italian newspaper La Stampa, Pope Benedict XVI has invited the 83-year-old former adviser to Richard Nixon to be a political consultant, and Kissinger has accepted . . . the paper reported Nov. 4 that the Nobel laureate was asked at a recent private audience with the Holy Father to form part of a papal "advisory board" on foreign and political affairs. . .

Iran replaces Dollar with Euro in Most Oil Dealings

Teheran, December 5, 2000– Iran has started replacing dollar with euro in majority of its crude oil exchanges in the last several months, an informed source with Iran's Oil Ministry said here on Tuesday. Oil Ministry has taken the policy to substitute dollar with euro, and begun to implement it for most of its oil dealings, the source who spoke on the condition of anonymity told the Mehr News Agency.

"This can maintain the real value of Iranian oil," he added. The majority of Iran crude's customers are Asian and European states, the source noted. Iran is the number two oil producing member of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). It also stands second behind Russia in terms of gas reserves in the world.

A Court Trial

Court is in session. The case is The World -v- The Word of God and the cause for this indictment is breach of promise. The Applicant claims that God has not kept His promise that, "If you continue in My Word, then you are My disciples indeed; and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:31-32).

The prosecuting attorney in this case is Satan. He represents the world because he is of the world. The Defendant in this case is Almighty God and His Word because God is the Word. The defense witness in this case is the Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride. And the prosecuting attorney's witnesses are Mr. Unbeliever, Mr. Sceptic, and Mr. Impatient.

The prosecutor calls his first witness, and Mr. Unbelief is sworn in.

Prosecuting Attorney, Satan: I have two points of issue, the first concerns the Pride of Christ's end-time Bride.

Mr. Unbelief: God did not decree man should be equal to Him in Intelligence, and know or comprehend all His Mysteries. Hence the Trinity remains a mystery except to those who proudly think to be His equal.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: God requires man to be obedient, and He commands you to read and understand Revelation 10:7 in which He promises that, "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 has declared to His servants the prophets."

Prosecuting Attorney, Satan: Please show me where God commands that we read Revelation 10:7.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: The seventh "angel" was William Branham (1909-1965) the Prophet-Messenger to the Laodicean Church Age. Revelation 10:8-11, "And the Voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, Go and take the little Book which is open in the hand of the Angel who stands upon the sea and upon the earth. And I went to the Angel, and said, Give me the little book. And He said, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make your belly bitter, but it shall be sweet as honey in your mouth."

Defendant, Almighty God: That was My Voice that spoke from heaven.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Your Honour, Christ was the Angel with the open Book. If you refer to Revelation Chapter 4 you will see that Redemption is over at the close of the Laodicean Church Age in 1963, and the Mercy Seat, no longer covered with the Blood of the Lamb, has become a Judgment Seat. "And out of the throne proceed lightnings and thunderings and voices. The sevenfold Spirit of God has left the earth and stands before an angry God; and before the throne the sea of glass is crystal clear" because the living sacrifice of the PART-Word saints have been washed, offered, and received.

In Revelation 5, the Elders advertised for a kinsman Redeemer, but no one in heaven or in earth or in the grave was found worthy to open and read or even look upon the Sealed Book Daniel and John were commanded to shut up and seal to the time of the end (Daniel 12:4, 9; Revelation 10:4). And Christ's end-time Bride wept, because without a kinsman Redeemer all creation would be lost. Then one of the Elders said, Don't cry, for the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David has prevailed to open the Book and to loose its seven Seals. I turned to look, but instead of a Lion I saw the bloody body of the Lamb of God coming from the altar of sacrifice where He had lain as a testimony for 2,000 years into the Holy of Holies. He took the Book of Redemption from the right hand of Almighty God and sat upon the Judgment Seat (John 5:27).

This same Christ has returned to earth in the prophetic office as Son of man and Judge symbolized as the Messenger of Revelation 10:1-6 (I Thessalonians 4:14-16). In obedience to the heavenly Voice of God, whose Voice Mr. Unbeliever wants neither to hear or obey, "I took the little Book out of the Angel's hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter." Because the revelation is stimulating, but obedience to its Message requires one to forsake the world and offer one's life as a sacrifice pleasing to God.

Defendant, Almighty God: "Christ's end-time Bride must share this Message with many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings."

This Message is Christ, the fullness of the Word. Since He is now Judge, Christ's Mediation for the ignorance of PART-Word is done away (I Corinthians 13:10). This Message is My final warning to Gentiles and Israelites to come out of Babylon and her harlot daughter churches and become one with the Father. There is no other avenue to escape My wrath in the great tribulation (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 14:9-10; 18:1-4).

This Message is My indictment of the world. All who refuse to hear it after the first and second admonition have committed the unforgivable sin, and are souls imprisoned now by their unbelief (II Peter 2:4-7; Jude 5-7).

II Timothy 3:15-17, "From a child you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make one wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works".

Paul is the prophet I inspired to write the New Testament.

Mr. Unbelief: The last prophet was John the Baptist (Matthew 11:13-14).

Defendant, Almighty God: Objection, Your honour. John the Baptist was the "Elijah" of Isaiah 40:3 and Malachi 3:1. Two more "Elijahs" follow him. William Branham was the Elijah to we Gentiles (Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11), and as I speak, a Hebrew is waiting until I call My Church Home so he can receive his "Elijah" anointing to minister to Israel (Zechariah 4; Matthew 24:31; Revelation 11).

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Is Mr. Unbelief trying to tell the Court Jesus Christ was not a prophet? That John, Peter, Paul, Jude, and many others were not vindicated prophets? Is he trying to declare Jesus lied in Matthew 23:34 and Revelation 10:7, or that Paul lied in Ephesians 4:11-13 and I Corinthians 12:28? Is Amos 3:7 also inspired of the Devil?

It is inconceivable that the vindicated prophets of God's infallible Word could err in their THUS SAITH THE LORD.

Defendant, Almighty God: Revelation 1:1-3, "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to Him, to show to His servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John: who bore record of the Word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that reads and they that understand the Words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand".

Every man desiring My blessing will hear and understand Revelation 10:7, for it finishes the revelation of Jesus Christ who is the mystery of God revealed. This is My COMMANDMENT. Those who question My command to receive the Message of the prophet of Revelation 10:7 will experience the curse of Malachi 4:6, Acts 3:23 and Revelation 22:18-19.

WMBJesus Christ and John were prophets. The "angel" who signified the revelation of Jesus Christ was the prophet messenger to the Seventh or Laodicean Church Age (1906-1963), William Branham. Revelation 10:4, 7, "When the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. . . 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 has declared to His servants the prophets".

How do Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Sceptic and Mr. Impatient propose to serve God in ignorance of "the revelation of Jesus Christ" which was sealed from the foundation of the world "to the time of the end" and is now revealed? This is the end-time.

The new birth in Pentecost, in each of the seven Church Ages, and in this present holy convocation or fiftieth day at the end of the Pentecostal feast came through a clear revelation of the Word delivered by the angel for the elect in that hour. William Branham or someone with an identical ministry was (past tense) the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 and Matthew 17:11 and the seventh angel of Revelation 3:14 and 10:7, just as Jesus or someone with an identical ministry is Messiah.

Amos 3:7, "Surely the Lord God will do nothing without first revealing His secret to His servants the prophets".

Without a prophet to restore the apostolic faith and finish the mystery of God, I can fulfill no Scripture of great moment.

Proverbs 29:18, "Where there is no vision, the people perish".

Job 36:12, "If they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge".

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you . . ."

I also always show a sign in the heaven (Psalm 19:1). I promised such a sign in Acts 1:9-11 and Revelation 1:7.

Mr. Sceptic: God has broken His promise. "Every eye" has witnessed no such sign.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Revelation 1:7, "Behold, Christ comes with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they who pierced Him shall also see Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him." This was the sign of Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming Jesus prophesied in Matthew 24:3.

Cloud of Acts 1:9-11God honoured His promise on February 28, 1963 by a Supernatural Cloud scientists have been unable to explain. It was the Shekinah or Pillar of Cloud as led natural Israel out of Egypt in the first Exodus now leading Spiritual Israel out of the church in the third exodus. The eyes of every elect have seen this Cloud which was the promised sign of Jesus 'parousia' Coming between the Sixth and Seventh Vials "as a thief in the night" with the Church Age saints for the first resurrection (I Thessalonians 14:4; Revelation 10:7; 16:15). Christ returned in March 1963 as and when He promised. You know nothing of this as you are looking for the physical return of the Man which only the glorified saints who come back with Him to step on the ashes of the wicked for a thousand years of peace will see (Malachi 4:1-3; Isaiah 13:9; Matthew 3:12; Revelation 19:21; 20:5).

This prophecy addresses three different groups of people. Every eye of those in Christ's end-time Bride will see Him and recognize their day and it's Message. Three and a half years after our translation, "they who pierced Him," 144,000 elect Israelites "shall also see Him" in a similar heavenly sign after the Great Trumpet under the Sixth Seal, and recognize their day and its Message through the ministry of two Hebrew prophets anointed with the Spirit that endued Moses and Elijah (Isaiah 27:13; Matthew 24:29-31; Revelation 6:12-17). Lastly, "all kindreds of the earth shall wail" when they see the first resurrection has passed and that in order to retain their names on the Book of Life and salvation, they must refuse the mark of the beast of Rome, which is trinitarianism, and refuse to serve or worship its (once) Protestant image.

Mr. Sceptic: Given that man is not responsible for his intellect or lack of it, how can God in logic command the impossible?

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: The Bible clearly instructs us as to the infallible vindication of prophecy. Intellect in general is a hindrance to faith, which is the evidence of things not seen, touched, tasted, heard or smelt. Intellect is a stranger to Spiritual understanding and obedience thereto because its point of reference is the world of present tense we contact with our ten natural senses of see, touch, hear, taste, and smell; memory, imagination, conscience, affection and reasoning, independent of the Supernatural God of eternity.

Matthew 11:25-27, "Jesus said, I thank You, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in Your sight. All things are delivered to Me of My Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him".

Acts 4:13, "when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus".

I Corinthians 1:22-31, "The Judeans require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: but we preach Christ crucified, to the Judeans a stumblingblock and to the Greeks foolishness; but to them who are called, both Judeans and Gentiles, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see your calling, brethren, how not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; and base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are: that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: that, according as it is written, He who glories, let him glory in the Lord".

Defendant, Almighty God: Since Mr. Sceptic has refused the admonitions of Acts 17:11; Romans 3:4; Galatians 1:8-9; I Thessalonians 5:21; II Timothy 2:15; I Peter 1:8-11, etc., and is not baptized in Scriptural water baptism as commanded in Matthew 28:19; Luke 24:47-49 and Acts 2:38-39, having received a clear revelation of who I am and repenting of his past unbelief, when the Son tries to reveal Himself, he shuts his heart to His Voice.

Mr. Sceptic: Even you admit that the majority are not very clever at recognizing truth (understanding).

Defendant, Almighty God: My Truth is not for the majority. The majority are LOST. Jesus died to redeem His Own, whom He called a "little flock." One does not have to be very clever or intellectual to see that Scripture eliminates the majority, that is—all organized religion—from election, and even salvation. Consider the days of Noah, which type Christ's end-time Bride inasmuch as one elect man was called out of the seventh generation from the first Adam and translated while eight endured the tribulation of the Flood, of whom three were lost. Or consider Israel in the first exodus in which all but two adults were blotted from the Book of Life and perished naturally in the desert. Only Joshua and Caleb entered the Promised Land.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Read John 17:9, 20, "I pray not for the world, but for them You have given Me (out of the world); and for those who will believe on Me through their Word, for they are Yours".

To "redeem" means to buy back a possession that has been forfeited. God can only redeem those whom He foreknew as His elect (Romans 8:28-33; II Corinthians 5:13-14). The elect are attributes of the Logos, the part of God Jesus called, "My sheep who receive My Word and will not follow a stranger" (John 10:1-5). Matthew 24:24 states emphatically that the elect of God cannot be deceived on the revealed Word of God, for once they are born-again they cannot commit sin or disbelieve His revealed Word (I John 3:6-10; 5:17-20).

"The majority" today are physically in Cain's lineage through miscegenation as Jesus Christ prophesied in Matthew 24:37. Multiculturalism is the global repetition of this horrible sin which caused God grief that He ever created man since the offspring of these illegal unions are not in Adam's race (Genesis 6:1-4). Whole nations are born LOST as they are not in the Book of Life. Miscegenation, or multiculturalism, is genocide to Adam's race in this day as it was in the days of Eve and Noah. However, the majority of Adam's race today is either apostate or spiritual serpent's seed through hybrid religion.

Mr. Sceptic: Only the original Greek writing of John is guaranteed to be the Word of God; who among us can understand Ancient Greek, even if we still had that copy today?

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: You cannot understand "Ancient Greek," you know of no such scholar and do not believe the original text is extant. But were you proficient in the ancient tongue or knew a scholar who possessed John's manuscript, you would doubt your judgment, the ability of your translator and the authenticity of the document. Sceptic by name, Sceptic by nature: you exclude yourself from Christianity by the inadequacy of your self-works and impose your scepticism upon God's elect who depend on the Holy Spirit to reveal the meaning of God's unchanging Word by faith?

John 16:13-15, "When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will show you things to come. He will glorify Me, for He shall receive what is Mine, and declare it to you. Everything the Father has is Mine: therefore I said, He will take from what is mine, and declare it to you."

Does your ignorance of this ancient tongue make void II Corinthians 3:1-8:

"Do we begin again to commend ourselves; or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: Forasmuch as you are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone (or "ancient Greek"), but written in fleshy tables of the heart (by faith). And such trust have we through Christ toward God: not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; who also has made us able ministers of the New Testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives Life. But if the ministration of death, written and engraved in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away: How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?

Defendant, Almighty God: Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Sceptic, and Mr. Impatient, you are denying the "finished work" of Christ on Calvary. You are rejecting the Holy Spirit when faith is presented. This is the unforgivable sin and the mark of the beast. You are trying to apprehend God by human intellect, which is to declare the death and resurrection of Adam's kinsman Redeemer of no account. You want to get to God by a works program of understanding the "letter" which is DEATH, and refusing the Spirit which is Truth and Life.

How can you hope to benefit from understanding the "Ancient Greek" when you have rejected the revelation of all the Scriptures quoted in this hearing? How many of those who loved God and perfectly understood "Ancient Greek" in the days of Christ received the faith? Almost none. Many received the Spirit of Antichrist and slew Messiah, while their high priest and Paul of the Sanhedrin martyred the saints of the early Church. Soon the Gentile church, ruled by Antichrist himself, will martyr the "saved" non-elect as the early Christians were martyred by the Jewish church.

Prosecuting Attorney, Satan: I had two points of issue, in my second point I said that Jesus was "I Am" before he was born. And also that "We must eat His flesh . . ." You have said, "This is unscriptural nonsense. Before Jesus was born He was only in the foreknowledge of God, of whom He is the manifestation in virgin-born flesh as Adam's kinsman Redeemer". You also said that "The elements we receive when we observe the Lord's Supper, not His breakfast or His lunch, are not the actual Body and Blood of the Lord, but symbols which represent His broken body and the Life that was in the blood".

"Jesus answered: If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing. It is My Father that glorifies Me, of whom you say that He is your God. And you have not known Him: but I know Him. And if I shall say that I know Him not, I shall be like to you, a liar. But I do know Him and do keep His Word. Abraham your father rejoiced that he might see My day: he saw it and was glad. The Jews therefore said to Him: You are not yet fifty years old. And have You seen Abraham? Jesus said to them: Amen, amen, I say to you, before Abraham was made, I AM. They took up stones therefore to cast at Him. But Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple".

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: John 8:54-59 speaks of God's foreknowledge of Jesus, Abraham's foreknowledge of Jesus Messiah by faith, and Jesus' knowledge of Abraham's faith, he being known as the father of those who have faith. The Logos is the Shekinah, the Pillar of Cloud or Fire Ezekiel 1:28 called "the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord." The Logos means finished concept or thought expressed in speech. God's thoughts were complete in Eternity, then expressed as the Logos when time began along with the manifestation of the Sun. All of God's elect were in the Logos, that is, in the glory of God before Abraham or Jesus Christ was manifest in flesh. Jesus was born of a virgin. Before His birth the Logos was, but Jesus was not. You are in confrontation with the Lord.

Mr. Impatient: Take care you are not with these Jews in the Temple, casting stones . . .

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: One of the keys to understanding Scripture is the word "manifestation." Out of the Logos souls were created and manifested as the sons of Adam, and out of human reasoning against the Logos and lust the sons of Cain were manifested.

I Timothy 3:16, "Without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory".

Jesus Christ is the manifestation of God as Adam's virgin-born kinsman Redeemer. The Man Abraham worshipped in Genesis 18 was God manifest in a created Man. He was not Jesus who was not yet born, but He was the Logos manifest in created flesh as He proved by the Messianic Sign of Hebrews 4:12. There you have a fourth person in your trinity. In Genesis 14 we see the Logos manifest in a Man. He was God, but He was not Jesus: a fifth person in your trinity. Jacob wrestled with the manifestation of another created Man who was also God, a sixth person in your trinity. Gideon offered cakes to a seventh manifestation of God in created flesh. Job debated with an eighth manifestation of God in flesh.

God is not "three in one," but ten thousands times ten thousand and thousand thousands in one (Daniel 7:10; Revelation 5:11). The Bible explains how God is changing His form or unfolding Himself from the eternal Spirit alone with His thoughts into the flesh of His glorified Family—Jesus Christ and His Brothers and Sisters. The elect Church is God made manifest. In the new heavens and earth God will be worshipped by the "saved" throughout eternity in the manifestation of His Family—Jesus Christ and His Bride, Head and Body one through the invisible marriage union. Each of our bodies born of a woman is called anew from the elements by God's creative Word which regenerated our soul. Christ's victory over death is replicated in the sleeping saints who rise, and we who change in the atoms.

Prosecuting Attorney, Satan: And on that other bit of nonsense, again from Scripture:

John 6:51-59, "I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If any man eats of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is My flesh, for the life of the world. The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this Man give us His flesh to eat? Then Jesus said to them: Amen, amen, I say unto you: except you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink His blood, you shall not have Life in you. He that eats My flesh and drinks My blood has everlasting Life: and I will raise him up in the last day. For My flesh is meat indeed: and My blood is drink indeed. He that eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me: and I in him. As the living Father has sent Me and I live by the Father: so he that eats Me, the same also shall live by Me. This is the bread that came down from heaven. Not as your fathers did eat manna and are dead. He that eats this bread shall live forever".

"After this, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with Him."

Do you likewise deny His Words and walk no more with Him?

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: No, it is your client the World, and Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Sceptic, and Mr. Impatient who have been walking away from the revealed Word throughout time, and in this hearing the Applicant and his witnesses have determined to increase their pace.

Your understanding of our Lord's command is perverse and contrary to God's Word which commands us not to eat blood or human flesh: Genesis 9:4, "You must not eat flesh with its life—that is, its blood—in it. I will require full satisfaction from your lifeblood. . ."

The Body of Christ is His Church (I Corinthians 12:12-27; Ephesians 1:22-23; 5:21-23). We are the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Ghost who lives in us, for the life is in the blood (John 6:63; 17:21-26; Romans 8:9-11; II Corinthians 4:10-12; Galatians 3:27-29).

Your perverse understanding makes Paul contradict Moses and Jesus Christ, in which case he would be a false prophet. Paul explains in I Corinthians 11:23-34 that the elements of square unleavened bread made with holy hands and wine made by holy hands or feet are a memorial or symbol of the Word made flesh and broken by Israel; the wine represents the Blood in which flowed the spirit or Life of Jesus Christ. The Lord's Supper, which is partaken only by those who are saints, signifies we are one with the Word and Spirit of God as Jesus prayed in Gethsemane. This is why we must tarry for one another to ensure all consciences are clear before observing this memorial, which is followed by foot washing.

Your client and his witnesses are trying to know God by the letter of ancient Greek and self-works, which is why you they alienated from Christ and spiritually dead.

Prosecuting Attorney, Satan: That's a pretty good story. Yet I have heard a lot of good stories, many are imaginary interpretations of Holy writ. Some are like Startrek. Take the Book of Mormon as an example. . . All great imaginative works; yours is just one among many, not provable to be anything but the imaginings of man.

Jesus said, of those who truly follow Him, that they will raise the dead etc . . . as proof of Him. . . That He sent them. . . Who of these fables has any power to raise the dead? Bro. Branham?

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: No man can heal or raise the dead. Like our Lord Jesus, Brother Branham could only do what God showed Him by vision, and speak the Words God inspired to His heart (John 5:19).

Yet the Lord God raised more dead, restored sight and hearing to more blind, deaf and dumb and made more cripples whole in Brother Branham's ministry than is recorded in the whole of Scripture. Still, Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Sceptic, Mr. Impatient, and the World will not believe. Brother Branham's ministry revealed Jesus Christ the same, yesterday and today, and forever, and was the last sign Jesus promised before the end of the Gentile dispensation (Luke 17:28-30).

WMBAs God veiled Himself behind the created Man in Genesis 18 and revealed Himself by the Sign of Hebrews 4:12, "Discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart," He veiled Himself behind Jesus' virgin-born flesh and identified Messiah by the same Sign. In this day God has veiled Himself behind the sin-born flesh of a regenerated sinner saved by grace and identified Himself by the same sign. Not is a secret place, but around and around the world in single congregations of hundreds of thousands. His second service in Durban, South Africa, had to be held at the race track—the second largest in the world. The following day the council required seven ten-ton trucks to cart away discarded stretchers, cots, wheel chairs and leg irons. Brother Branham did not touch one of them: God did.

There is your proof, Mr. World, Mr. Unbelief, Mr. Sceptic, and Mr. Impatient, if you have eyes to see and ears to hear.

Mr. Unbelief: I did a research on Branham years ago after correspondence with you. Unique though he may be he was/is one among many, basically in practice Pentecostal or charismatic. We even have Catholic sects involved.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Brother Branham was the "angel" to the Laodicean or Pentecostal Church Age so he was of course a Pentecostal. However, as the forerunner of Christ's second Coming he was the only Pentecostal saint able to cross into the revelation for the new dispensation at the close of the Laodicean Church Age. He is not my Messenger; he introduced our Messenger, who is Christ.

You cannot equate the Pentecostal dispensation with the Charismatic Movement which mimics the Laodicean Church Age that had ended before the Roman Catholic church organized its charismatic impersonation out of Vatican II. I was involved in the Charismatic Movement before I became a Christian.

Mr. Unbelief: Below is a close summary of most of what I found out. Branham was not always consistent in his doctrines especially the Trinity which he developed over time.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Everything he spoke in the Name of the Lord is THUS SAITH THE LORD, and perfectly consistent with Scripture. However, until Christ revealed the mystery of the Seven Seals through His prophet between March 17 and 24, every minister was preaching a measure of error because the Book was Sealed. Because they had only PART-Word, Christ was a Mediator for their ignorance of the whole. He has not been a Mediator since Revelation 4, 5, and 10:1-7 were fulfilled. That ended Laodicea; all seven Church Ages are fulfilled. All denominational churches have been apostate since that time and are being bundled together by the Charismatic movement, ecumenism, etc., as thorns and briars ready for the burning with mother Rome as Jesus foretold (Revelation 2:20-23).

The Prophet's doctrine regarding the trinity was always consistent but in Laodicea the great commission of the morning (Matthew 28:18-20) was in effect for the Book was still sealed and Christ was "winking" at ignorance and denominational differences. So this man of God was calling "whomsoever will," as it was not yet time for his "Elijah" anointing to restore the Word spoken by the mouth of all God's holy prophets since the world began by his evening commission that would call the wise and foolish virgin out from all denominations (Matthew 25:6; Revelation 18:4). God was attracting the attention of a people in preparation for this end-time Message as He gathered the crowds in preparation for Jesus' to deliver His Message. God revealed Jesus in Brother Branham's ministry by the same three three signs. The first sign was healing the sick, the second sign was discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart, while the third sign was the opening of the Word, their Message.

Brother Branham was to fulfill II Timothy 4:2-4, "Preach the Word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts they shall heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned to fables." At the apostasy of Laodicea he received his "Elijah" anointing and introduced the Son of man who corrected the errors of two thousand years, restored the apostolic faith, and "finished the mystery of God." The denominations rejected the revelation of Jesus Christ, thereby putting Him without the camp (II Thessalonians 2:1-3; Revelation 3:17-20).

Mr. Sceptic: Branham believed in the Divinity of Christ, that He was God.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Of course He did, because Jesus Christ is God. Not the Man part. You cannot kill God. The Man was a piece of meat! Jesus Christ was the fullness of the nature and character of God manifest in the virgin-born flesh of one man (Colossians 2:9). A spirit cannot die by man's capital punishment, or be nailed to a cross as the Man Jesus was.

Jesus ChristGod is a (one) Spirit (John 4:24). God is not "three persons." That is paganism Nimrod and Semiramis revived on this side of the Flood. From Babylon polytheism infused every nation, tribe and tongue. When Israel adopted the trinity, God dispersed the people and destroyed that kingdom. When Judah adopted trinitarianism, He sent Nebuchadnezzar to raze the temple, take the people captive for a lifetime, and began the times of Gentile rule over Israel, which will last to the consummation of life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2, 8).

Notice, your Honour, God is the "self-existant one." Language and the "logic" to which Mr. Sceptic appealed earlier prohibit a self-existent two or three:

Jehovah– the self-existent One
Jehovah Jireh– the self-existent One will provide
Jehovah Nissi– the self-existent One is my Banner
Jehovah Rapha– the self-existent One is my Healer
Jehovah Shalom– the self-existent One is our peace
Jehovah Shammah– the self-existent One is there
Jehovah Tsidkenu– the self-existent One is our righteousness

God is One (1) Spirit, not two spirits and one Man (Numbers 23:19; I Samuel 15:29; Job 9:32). God is one Spirit, He is the Holy Spirit. The Devil is one spirit, so are you and so am I. "Holy Spirit" is WHAT God is. "Father" is a Title describing what God became when His first Son, Adam was manifested. There can be no such thing as an eternal Father. Until Adam was formed from the dust of the ground God was only potentially the Father.

There was no Jesus Christ until He was born of the virgin in Bethlehem one April long ago. And there cannot be an eternal Son. Every Son is begotten of a father. Isaiah 7:14 and 9:6-7 make this clear and Matthew 1:1-25 and Luke 3:23-38 confirm the lineage of Jesus Christ and the fact He was "begotten" and is not an "eternal Son." Because He was the manifestation of the fullness of the character and nature of God in one Man, He is known as Emmanuel, which means "God with us".

Matthew 1:18-20, "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: when his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a public example, was minded to put her away privately. But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, you son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary your wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost".

Either the Holy Ghost is WHAT the Father is or Jesus had two fathers and was bastard born!

If you take thought you will realize we have reduced the trinity from three to one. In modern parlance the trinity has been "downsized," and we are beginning to approach oneness with God as Jesus prayed in John 17 that we might be one (1) with the Father and one (1) with Himself as He and the father are one (1). That is, that we might all be in AGREEMENT (John 17:21; Ephesians 4:13), which is the function of the ministry of Brother Branham (Revelation 10:7-11; 22:17-19).

Now if we turn to John 1:1-3, 14, we discover that "In the beginning God was alone with His eternal thoughts. He is not now thinking or even taking counsel with Himself and because He is omniscient and infinite, all His thoughts He has always had. So the Logos (or thought in speech) was and is God (Proverbs 23:7). The same was in the beginning with God. All things are an expression of the Logos, without which nothing was made that was made . . . And billions or trillions of years after "the beginning" of time . . . the Logos was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth".

It does not require too much thought to realize that the Logos was not made flesh as you, without taking thought, testify. That would require the womb of the virgin to express all time—pre-history, present and future history, even all eternity, every cat and dog that ever was or will be, every word, planet and battleship. What was expressed or manifested in the flesh of that one Man was the fullness of the nature and character of God.

Isaiah 44:24, "THUS SAITH THE LORD, Your Redeemer, and He that formed You from the womb, I am the Lord who makes all things; that stretched forth the heavens alone; that spread abroad the earth by Myself." (Also Isaiah 37:16).

Now where was that "Eternal" Son?

Suddenly the trinity has been "downsized" to one (1) Person! So God did not lie to Moses as the Roman Catholic church insists, and the First Commandment is an eternal Truth.

Exodus 20:3, "You shall have no other gods before Me (singular)."

Likewise the Shema of Deuteronomy 6:4-5, "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one (1) Lord: and you shall love the Lord your God (singular) with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might".

As we have already demonstrated by the Scripture, "Son" is an Office or Title God became when He manifest Himself as the virgin-born Jesus—less than 2,000 years ago, as Jesus explained to Brother Branham in Revelation 3:14, "To the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things says Jesus Christ, the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God".

God is the Creator: only in Jesus Christ (and eventually His glorified Bride) is He a creation. God is eternal with no beginning and no end as He explained when He manifest Himself to Abraham in as a Man Genesis 14.

Hebrews 7:1-2, "This Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; to whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which means, King of peace. Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abides a priest continually. Now consider how great this Man was . . ."

This was not the Son, for Jesus had both father and mother (as supposed; actually God was both His Father and Mother as He was the Logos, not Mary's ovum made flesh, else He would have been sinful flesh like she, and not God's "Holy One" and our Redeemer– Psalm 16:10). Jesus has descent as we have read in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 (Genesis 12:3; 17:1-8; 49:10; II Samuel 7:13-13, etc.). Jesus had "a beginning of days," and an "end of life," and now He is alive for evermore.

This Melchisedec was a M_A_N, yet He was a manifestation of God who proved He was the Logos by discerning the thoughts of Abraham and Sarah's hearts (Hebrews 4:12). This was not the Son but the Father of the Son manifest as a created Man, and who would later manifest Himself in virgin-born flesh as the Son.

Isaiah 43:11; 44:6; 45:21-22, "I, even I, am the Lord; and beside Me there is no Saviour. . . Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his Redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last (Revelation 1:8); and beside Me there is no God . . . there is no God else beside Me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. [Not even a second or third person in a trinity]. Look to Me, all nations of Adam's race, and you will be saved: for I am God [singular—One Person], and there is none else".

Mr. Impatient: William Branham believed in the Divinity of Christ, that He was God. Hence I cannot understand your inclusion here. (When you write) "No man, not even Jesus could heal or raise the dead John 5:19." Yet what about Matthew 17:19?

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: I believe I have explained that fully. The disciples could not cast the demon out of the patient because of their unbelief (Matthew 17:20).

The seven compound offices or manifestations of the Attributes of God were all fulfilled in Jesus Christ, for God is unchanging (Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8). Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New. The key to understanding the Bible is the Word "manifestation." The Bible is the story of God manifesting His Attributes in the flesh of His family, that is, those who are at one or in agreement with God by grace through faith. Consequently the whole Family of God is God manifest, and the "saved" will worship God throughout eternity in the Form of Jesus Christ and His glorified Bride.

We are the Logos expressed. Were Jesus Christ to stand on one tray of the scales and His Bride on the other, both trays would balance as Jesus explained in the parable of the wheat. Christ's Bride is one with the Father as together we are the fullness of the Logos expressed. "Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone: but if it dies, it brings forth much" (John 12:24). This is the economy of farming and the fulfilment of the Pentecostal or Gentile dispensation. This is why God had to send us the prophet William Branham to restore the apostolic faith (Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11) and finish the mystery of God (Revelation 10:7; I Corinthians 13:10). Without this ministry which has "restored all things spoken by the mouth of all God's holy prophets since the world began," that is, the fullness of the Word which is Christ, we would not be restored to original Seed (Luke 8:11) and manifest that we are the Sons of God during the resurrection of the Church Age saints after the close of the Gentile dispensation when the wise and foolish virgin become hunted and persecuted by the denominations (Romans 8:19).

Following the earthquake at the close of the dispensation what we speak God will do, vindicating that we are the Sons of God. Confirming we are one with the Father exactly as our elder Brother Jesus was one with the Father. Proving we are under pre-eminence to the revealed Word and have "the mind of God." This will not be a public show as it was in the ministries of Jesus Christ and Brother Branham who revealed Christ in our day (Luke 17:28-30); grace for repentance will be over (Revelation 22:11). Thereafter all whose names remain in the Book of Life will have to surrender their lives in martyrdom in order to retain their place in the Book and be granted into eternal Life by the Elect at the White Throne Judgment (Daniel 7:22; Psalm 82:1; 149:9; Matthew 19:28; Romans 2:16; I Corinthians 6:1-3; Revelation 1:5-6).

Already Christ's Bride is preaching to souls who are imprisoned now: dead, like the widow who lives in pleasure (I Timothy 5:6). Organization, the husband of your denomination—whichever one it is—is dead. Do not wait until the earthquake to discover the Bible is Truth written in simplicity such that babes can understand without learning the ancient Greek.

Mr. Impatient: I agree technically that all power comes from God, and any true miracle worker merely is an instrument by which God reveals His power, and I might justly add His confirmation of the person who is His minister or prophet.

However Jesus was God as well as man, and He therefore has to be excluded from the meaning you impute to John 5:19 because He said elsewhere, I and the father are ONE. He meant that alone as a man, he was without power. To truly experience humanity he often insulated his consciousness from His Divinity. If he did not, then His example would be a hard one for mere man to follow.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: You do not understand the simplicity of God's Word, and rather than seek to know Him, you set out to prove Roman Catholic traditions of men that make void God's unchanging-Word.

I and every Christian Brother and Sister is one with the Father, and one with Christ which is the fulfilment of Jesus' prayer in the garden of Gethsemane (John 17:21-26).

Mr. Impatient: Also, and you will agree here because you use this argument against Catholic miracles, the Devil can do great signs. And he does in many sects of the charismatic and Pentecostal movement including Catholics.

True, Satan can do great signs, but he cannot heal. We see him uniting the churches and outwardly pagan religions together (Revelation 13:14) and with the state for the second crucifixion. We see him mixing the races to divide and conquer nations in order to fulfill Matthew 4:8-9 in the totalitarian one world government Jesus refused but which the pope will receive. God also does great signs and miracles among misguided people. He does great signs and miracles among the pagans and witchdoctors, but He is honouring the faith of unlearned believers who are reaching up to the one Creator God with genuine need. It is God who answers their effectual fervent prayer of faith by a miracle, not the Catholic priest or the witchdoctor, or Satan (Mark 9:38-40).

Matthew 13:58, "Jesus was not able to do many mighty works there because of their unbelief." It mattered not that Jesus was one with God; if the patients had no faith God could not heal them. If you study the ministry of Brother Branham you will understand that God could not heal any of his patients unless and until they had faith to receive their healing. The Lord gave Brother Branham three signs, just as He gave Moses three signs to help the people believe and raise their faith to the degree necessary to receive the answer to their prayer. And the purpose of the "third pull" during the manifestation of the Sons of God is to raise our faith so we can change in the atoms. We will change in the atoms only if we have personal faith to do so.

Mr. Unbelief: I, during my youth without religion, was involved in psychic research including hypnotism and Indian fakirs. We did amazing things and did effect cures as well as illnesses at will. The so called Marian apparitions of Garabandal (not Church approved) contained this sort of magic. As well does many many stigmatists. The human mind is a vast resource of mostly untapped power.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Your problem as a youth was "religion;" now doubly so (Matthew 23:15). You need to curse religion and meet Christ in His Word. Religion is nothing more than a covering for sin. The first religion was Adam and Eve's fig leaves, but they were as transparent then as your trinity Bible-denying "Apostles' Creed" (so-called), based on the Nicaean Creed that was not adopted until AD360. What you are talking about is not Christianity. The cures, if they were cures, were God's answer to the faith of some unlearned person as I have explained.

Mr. Impatient: Matthew 17:19-20, "Jesus said to them: Because of your unbelief. For, amen I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard-seed, you shall say to this mountain: Remove from hence hither, and it shall remove: and nothing shall be impossible to you." Thus it is that I say Scripture can argue with itself forever.

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: Scripture does not contradict Scripture. You fail to understand the Scripture and Jesus' explanation. First He states the reason they were unable to cast out the demon was their unbelief. Then he explained that what faith they possessed was mixed or hybrid with unbelief. This he illustrated by the mustard seed, which, although it is amongst the smallest of seeds it will not hybridize.

Mr. Impatient: between all manner of people claiming to have the Holy Spirit guiding them. If the Devil has one, then the Devil can have all, without distinction, because there is no physical arbiter. Peter warned us of the need of apostolic authority.

seven angels and Church AgesHoly Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: The whole elect Church has apostolic authority (I Corinthians 12:28; Ephesians 4:11-13; Revelation 1– 3). God set seven major apostles in the Church, but they were not "physical arbiters." A life lived by a clear revelation of their Message distinguished their dispensation from the previous Church Ages. It brought rebuke and correction to the backsliding of the previous Age and new birth to those whose lives became written epistles of the new Message. These seven major apostles were Paul, Irenaeus, St. Martin, St. Columba, Martin Luther, John Wesley, and William Branham. Paul and Brother Branham were both prophets. Brother Branham's Message restored Christ's end-time Bride back to the faith delivered by Paul who wrote the New Testament.

The Roman Catholic church has not recognized the major apostle sent to any of the seven Church Ages.

Mr. Impatient: "And account the longsuffering of our Lord, salvation: as also our most dear brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, hath written to you: as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are certain things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction. You therefore, brethren, knowing these things before, take heed, lest being led aside by the error of the unwise, you fall from your own steadfastness".

Holy Ghost in Christ's end-time Bride: You should pay heed to the admonition of II Peter 3:17, for you have been "led aside by the error of the unwise".

The material in the linked article in Wikipedia submitted in evidence of your research on Brother Branham is very general and without Spiritual revelation and could be misleading as it does not point either to God's unchanging Word or to the text of the Prophet's Message.

Any one wanting to understand the history and doctrines of our Lord Jesus Christ will search His Word, not what the Pope or anyone else might say. Likewise, anyone wanting to understand the history and doctrine of Brother Branham will study his words and take them back to Scripture. A Scripture Concordance to the Sermons of William M. Branham, transcripts of his recorded sermons, the Bible and Strong's Concordance are on-line on Bible Believers' Church Website for this purpose.

Those noble Bereans set us a fine example in the admonition of Acts 17:11. Every sincere Bible believer knows God promised and has sent us a prophet in these last days. Those who have not recognized Brother Branham as the promised prophet will be searching the world to discover who that prophet was (past tense) and ensure his life and ministry fulfill all Scriptures already fulfilled by Brother Branham, for the soul that does not receive this ministry of restoration will be cast into the tribulation (Acts 3:23. Also Malachi 4:6 and Revelation 22:17-19). eb452.htm

ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we welcome you to fellowship in God's unchanging Word.

Pastor David J. Meyer had this to say: The vast majority of the American people today are products of crafty manipulation through gradualism. People are not looked at today as having individual rights but rather as a collective society regulated by collective public policy. How can America be a nation of independence when the people are totally dependent on a governing power that watches and regulates them from the cradle to the grave? The people of the United States are truly an enslaved people and are in bondage, just as the Bible said it would be in the last days, or the days of the beast. That is why Revelation 13:16 uses the word bond to indicate slavery during the time of antichrist rule as follows: "And he causeth all. both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads." Here let it be noted that the word bond means slave by definition and context.

The entire nation of the United States of America consists of a population that is controlled and enslaved in many ways. It is a nation in bondage to addictions, regarding not only illegal and prescription drugs, but also alcohol, pornography, gluttony, and every other form of carnal pleasure imaginable. As I see the long lines of people at the drug stores, the masses of people at the all-you-can-eat restaurants, the adult entertainment centers all along our highways, and the large number of taverns and night clubs; it becomes obvious that the same conditions that existed in ancient Rome just before that empire fell now exist in our country.

There is another addiction, however, that is even more destructive and enslaving than anything that went on in the ancient world or even in the world of thirty years ago. It is the deceptive and destructive realm of electronic devices. The strange force that travels through resistors, capacitors, and microchips now snares and enslaves almost everyone; the electronic brain of the beast, or the Internet, now runs the world. The electronic role playing games now captivate and could destroy an entire generation of youth and even adults. At this time of the year, people are rushing out to buy gifts that inadvertently celebrate the death of God's two witnesses of Spirit and Truth that are supposed to be working in Christianity but have now been replaced with religious entertainment. We are told of this gift giving and making merry once truth has been cast off in Revelation 11:10 as follows: "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 dwell on the earth." Indeed, the most popular gifts are electronic games and related equipment.

In this world of electronic enslavement, Satan and his pulsating brain, also known as the worldwide web, control almost everyone with a set of three nine-digit numbers, or 999. The bank routing numbers for checking accounts are always nine digits. The full zip code now has nine digits. The social security number also has nine digits. How many transactions require these three nines? We must also remember that in the world of the occult words are often spelled backwards, and numbers are inverted or written upside down when possible. This is believed to amplify the power of the word or number. The word murder is written red-rum, which is its mirror image. The Freemason's mark sign of death to a traitor is the upside down double-headed axe, and there are many other such examples of inversions. Thus, the number of the beast, or 666, is inverted and becomes 999, and almost every American is ruled by these three, above mentioned, nine-digit numbers.

The reality of all of this is right before our very eyes, and no thinking person can deny it. Without question, Bible prophecy is being fulfilled as you read this. This means that we are all very close to entering eternity. I urge you to call upon the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ now before it is too late. Time is short and the days are evil (lasttrumpetministries.org)!

In the eyes of the US Administration it appears there is but one citizenship. US citizens may "appeal to Caesar," the rest, like Australian David Hicks and hundreds, if not thousands of innocent Muslims from different countries, have no rights and rot in clandestine dungeons around the world where fraudulent confessions are extracted by torture to exonerate amoral war criminals of the Imperium.

Mr. E. L. Godkin, editor of the Evening Post wrote in 1895: "The situation seems to me to be thus: An immense democracy, mostly ignorant and completely secluded from foreign influences and without any knowledge of other states of society, with great contempt for history and experience, finds itself in possession of enormous power and is eager to use it in brutal fashion against anyone who comes along, without knowing how to do it, and is therefore constantly on the brink of some frightful catastrophe . . ." (The Martial Spirit, Walter Millis, Literary Guild of America, 1931, p. 38).

Limp-Wristed Lame Duck: "As it was in the days of Lot"

Bush and Cheney are, as we all know huge backers of Israel and are extremely supportive of Israeli politicians. Is it not significant, then, that Israel's President, Moshe Katsov, is now under investigation in that country for raping and sexually molesting ten young staffers? The crimes of Katsov, the sex-fiend President of Israel, are perhaps exceeded only by those of Bush and his homoerotic cohorts.

Consider the sexual sadism practiced at Abu Ghraib prison. Video films of Iraqi male, nude prisoners showed many being victimized in acts of brutal sodomy. Naked Iraqi males—many whom later were found to be innocent—were stacked in pyramids . . . Evidence shows that top Bush White House and Pentagon officials, including Secretary of State Rumsfeld, privately viewed these obscene, monstrous movies . . .Shades of the abominable activities of France's notorious sadist, the Marquis de Sade.

Seymour Hersh, acclaimed New York writer who uncovered the My Lai, Vietnam atrocities decades ago, reports that inside the Pentagon's inner sanctum, kept hidden by Bush people from view by ordinary Americans, are horrific videos that beggar the imagination. They include grim scenes of US CIA and military interrogators raping and sodomizing Iraqi children. Hersh has seen them and says the "soundtrack of the shrieking boys" and hearing their mothers, forced to watch, crying out for mercy, made him sick to his stomach.

Bush is a sick, sick man, indeed. Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, and Beria don't have a thing on this man. Bush and his coterie of homoerotic thugs are craftier and more sinister than anything the brutal Soviet system ever produced. And coincidentally, Lenin and the boys in Russia were all Jews, and they were all homosexuals to boot. Just like Bush and his neocons . . .

That most of the Bush queer battalion are Jews is not a surprise. The Jewish Talmud, the rabbis' most holy book, officially endorses pedophile acts by homosexual fiends. The Talmud says that sex with a girl under three years of age, or a minor boy under nine, is permissible. It's not even a "sexual connection," say the rabbis.

Evidently, evangelicals like TBN's Paul Crouch (who gave $425,000 to hush-up his homosexual lover from writing a tell-all exposé of he and Paul's sodomite affair) and the NAE's gay deceiver, Ted Haggard, for years either winked at the White House Bordello, or just avoided the issue.

So, apparently, did Dobson, Falwell, Hagee, Graham, Warren, Hybels, Schuller and all the other evangelical fakesters. For this crowd, it's the old monkey's routine of "see, hear, say nothing." . . . Full story: conspiracyworld.com

The 1782 Congress of Wilhelmsbad: the Illuminati Takeover

The Illuminati took over Freemasonry in 1782 at the Congress convened at Meyer Amschel Rothschild's castle in Wilhelmsbad. In August 1781 C. W. Dohm, under the influence of Moses Mendelssohn, published Upon the Civil Amelioration of the Condition of the Jews, which produced a great wave of pro-Semitism. The historian Graetz wrote that Dohm's book painted the Christians "as cruel barbarians and the Jews as illustrious martyrs." It is a fact of history that the convention triumph of Weishaupt's Illuminati in 1782 occurred simultaneously with the admission of the Jews to Masonic lodges. . . Full story: biblebelievers

Man-made Global Warming– the Debate is Not Over!

When looking at the science, the facts don't seem to add up. That is what Christopher Monckton says in a two-part article that appeared in the UK's Sunday Telegraph. His conclusion: The science of global warming is being manipulated, we are addressing the wrong problem, and our solutions won't do what their proponents say they will.

One Third of Jailed Journalists are Bloggers

December 7, 2006– A new report by the Committee to Protect Journalists warns of increasing authoritarian attitudes towards the free flow of information on the Internet as statistics reveal that of the estimated 134 journalists jailed for their work worldwide, a full third are Internet writers and bloggers.

"We're at a crucial juncture in the fight for press freedom because authoritarian states have made the Internet a major front in their effort to control information" . . . "China is challenging the notion that the Internet is impossible to control or censor, and if it succeeds there will be far-ranging implications, not only for the medium but for press freedom all over the world."

The past few months have produced a noted increase in the amount of negative rhetoric spewed forth by western governments over the so-called dangers of the Internet and its exploitation by "terrorist organizations."

Add to this the state-imposed mental illness of political correctness brainwashing, whereby criticism of any individual, policy, group, gender, race or sexuality is treated as hate crime, and the last outpost of true freedom of speech will exist no more—replaced by a stifled, poisoned, controlled, censored, regulated "Internet 2."

The Yid who stole Christmas

There is very definitely a war on Christmas. They generally stop short of pointing the finger of guilt at the Jews, but nine out of ten times it seems to be a Jewish liberal or Jewish atheist who is filing lawsuits and waging the war on Christmas. Most recently, no less than a rabbi came forward to file one of these lawsuits. Full story: altermedia.info

Christ's Victory over the Beast and the Millennium

I Kings 21:17-26, "The Word of the Lord came to Elijah the Tishbite, saying, Go down to Samaria to meet Ahab king of Israel. He will be at Naboth's vineyard, taking possession. Tell him, THUS SAITH THE LORD, Isn't killing Naboth bad enough? Must you also rob him? In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth, dogs shall lick your blood. . . I have come to place God's curse upon you, He will take away your posterity, and cut off every male descendant, bond or free, in Israel. . . Also concerning Jezebel the Lord said, The dogs shall eat Jezebel by the wall of Jezreel. Your family who die in the city shall be eaten by dogs and the birds of the air will eat those who die in the open country. Truly there was never one so reprobate as Ahab whose wife Jezebel seduced him to evil in the sight of the Lord. He was abominably evil because he worshiped idols, as the Amorites had done, whom the Lord dispossessed before the children of Israel".

Revelation 2:20-23, "I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and teaches and beguiles My servants to commit fornication and to eat food sacrificed to idols. And I gave her time to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. Take note of what I am saying: I will cast her into a sickbed and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of her doings. And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am He who discerns the thoughts and intents of all hearts: and I will give to each of you as your works deserve".

Revelation 19:17-21, "And I saw an Angel standing in the sun; and with a loud voice He called to all the fowls that fly in midheaven, Come, gather for the great supper of God, to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all humanity, both free and bond, small and great. And I saw the beast gathering the kings of the earth and their armies to wage war against the One mounted on the horse and against His army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who performed miracles in his presence, with which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast, and those worshipping his image. These were both cast alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur. And the rest were slain with the Sword that goes forth from the mouth of the One mounted on the horse. And all the fowls were gorged with their flesh"

Paul and Brother Branham taught us Scripture records natural types that symbolize Spiritual antitypes in order to forewarn His elect of things that are to be. So in order to confirm our understanding of the Scripture we are admonished to match our revelation against its natural pattern. For instance if we were seeking the antitype of Israel's Pascal lamb we would be looking for a kinsman whose nature was the gentle demeanor of a lamb; a virgin-born man whose life was unspotted by sin and the world; who when reviled against, reviled not again. An innocent man upon whom the whole nation of Israel would lay their sins (Matthew 27:24-26; John 11:45-54; 18:14). A man who would come as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, open not his mouth, dying between noon and 3.00 pm on 14 Nisan—the hour, day and month prophesied by Moses in Exodus 12:1-14 in the year prophesied by Daniel 9:26, then rising again within three days as foretold by David in Psalm 16:10 and He Himself in Mark 14:58.

The sincere seeker of Truth will find only one man who fulfilled this type and prophecy.

If we wanted to identify the last prophet promised to the Gentiles we would look for a man in the office of the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 and the angel of Revelation 10:7. Elijah was a man and angels are men as women are forbidden to teach or preach, and since Jesus Christ said this prophet would be a man, we would look for a woman. He was William Branham (1909-1965), a relatively uneducated man of the wilderness who spoke in terms of nature and denounced immoral women and organized religion like John the Baptist, and as John foreran Christ's first Coming he foreran His second Coming.

The first Elijah cursed Jezebel and Ahab in the Name of the Lord and indicted the nation of Israel. Their sin was idolatry, murder and sexual immorality. Jesus Christ prophesied the Roman Catholic church would be Jezebel's antitype, for she has seduced the whole world into the idolatrous worship of her Babylonian religion. God gave Rome almost a thousand years of Dark Ages in which to repent, and she repented not. He also gave her once Protestant daughter churches space in which to repent during the Reformation of the Roman Catholic system of false worship. They too have ended in apostasy. God is now bundling these thorns and briers into the World Council of Churches, ecumenism and the charismatic movement of Vatican II, under the headship of mother Rome ready for the burning. The Great Whore will be destroyed by her lovers, the ten secular kingdoms that will constitute a revived Holy Roman Empire. After Rome breaks her covenant with the International Banksters in the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week they will turn Communist, ally themselves with Russia, and blast Vatican City State from the face of the earth (Daniel 7:20-26; Revelation 17:16—18:20).

Jezebel hated Elijah, and because Ahab was so completely under the influence of his wife, he sold his soul to the Devil and regarded God's prophet as his enemy. Elijah prophesied the death of Ahab and the termination of his kingdom. The king of Israel and his nation are a type of the United States of America.

Mt. TransfigurationBrother Branham said, "History is repeating itself from the time of Ahab. Israel's history under Ahab is happening right here in America where the prophet of Malachi appears. As Israel left Egypt to worship in freedom, pushed out the natives, raised up a nation with great leaders like David etc., and then put an Ahab on the throne with a Jezebel behind him to direct, so have we done the very same in America. Our forefathers left for this land to worship and live in freedom. They pushed back the natives and took over the land. Mighty men like Washington and Lincoln were raised up but after awhile other men of such poor caliber succeeded these worthy men that soon an Ahab was set in the presidential chair with a Jezebel behind him to direct him. It is at such a time as this that the messenger of Malachi must come. Then in the latter rain will come a Mount Carmel showdown [the "third pull" versus the prophets of Baal]. Watch this carefully now to see it in the Word. John was the forerunner of Malachi 3. He planted the former rain and was rejected by the organizations of his day. Jesus came and had a Mount Transfiguration show down. The second forerunner of Christ will sow for the latter rain. Jesus will be the showdown between the denominations and creeds, for He will come to back up His Word and take His Bride in the rapture. The first showdown was Mount Carmel; the second was Mount Transfiguration, and the third will be Mount Zion (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 174:2).

Ahab made a pact with the king of Judah to war against Syria in order to regain sovereignty over a piece of territory. When King Jehoshaphat asked confirmation of the will of the Lord, Ahab summoned four hundred denominational prophets on whom he could rely to support his plans. But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not a prophet of the Lord besides these four hundred priests of Astarte who eat at Jezebel's table left alive by Elijah at Mount Carmel [though the 450 prophets of Baal were slain (I Kings 18:19, 40), that we might enquire of him?"

Contrary to the unanimous approval of the four hundred pagan prophets, Micaiah confirmed the prophecy of Elijah saying, "I saw all Israel scattered upon the hills, as sheep that have no shepherd: and the Lord said, These have no master: let every man return to his house in peace. . . Hear the Word of the Lord: I saw the Lord sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing by Him on His right hand and on His left. And the Lord said, Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go and die at Ramoth-gilead? And one said this, and another said that. And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him. And the Lord said, How? He said, I will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And He said, You will succeed: go ahead. Can't you see, the Lord has permitted a spirit of deception to speak through all these prophets of yours, and the Lord has decreed disaster upon you . . . If you return at all in peace, the Lord has not spoken by me. And he said, Hear me, all you peoples" (I Kings 22:15-28).

As Elijah indicted Israel, Brother Branham indicted the United States of America, which rejected her last chance for national repentance in 1956/7: "Its a million miles from being a Christian country. I don't even pray for it. How can I pray for it, and it won't repent under the mighty powers of God demonstrated before it, and denying, and closing the doors to it, and walking away? I commit it to God. And she's going further away, and now she's going to sink. Just watch what happens"  (Trying to do God a Service, p. 23:136). In 1933 the Lord showed him seven continuous visions which would come to pass before His Coming was completed. The fifth vision concerned the moral depravity of our age. The sixth vision concerned the rise of the Roman Catholic church to complete dominance over America. In the seventh vision he heard a terrible explosion, "I saw this United States burning like a smolder; rocks had been blowed up. And it was burning like a heap of fire in logs or something that just set it afire; and looked as far as I could see and she'd been blown up. And then the vision left me. Five out of the seven, has happened" (The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 135:212).

Here is our antitype. Having rejected the Message of God's prophet in order to court denominational votes, the United States has become the false prophet to Rome. Her image is the (once) Protestant church. It reflects the same false trinitarian worship, observes the same false baptism in the Titles, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and recites the same Bible-denying Apostle's Creed (so-called). This is Balaamism, or substitution. They have organized away from the Leadership of the Holy Spirit by establishing an unscriptural hierarchy among the clergy. This is "nicolaitanism which Jesus hates." Brother Branham sometimes spoke of four hundred denominations, four hundred churches and four hundred pastors that spoke with one voice against the Message. Like Jezebel's priests who withstood the prophet Micaiah, these too are prophets of Astarte.

In Ahab's day, the land of Syria, more properly Assyria, included modern-day Iraq. Israel's warfare was unjust for although Assyria was occupying Ramoth-Gilead, which was territory God had granted to Israel, all of God's promises to Israel were conditional upon obedience as Moses taught in Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 27-29. Ahab did not seek to know the will of the Lord but received the spirit of strong delusion in support of his own will. How like America's George II who is determined to prosecute the City of London's program for world hegemony regardless how many millions of lives he destroys. This modern day Ahab, in partnership with banksters of the City of London, has falsely prophesied a coalition of willing dupes into the cowardly, murderous and covetous invasion of that part of Assyria known as Iraq with imperial ambitions over Syria and Lebanon which constitute the remainder of that ancient nation.

The dogs may not lick the blood of George II but they are already licking the life-blood of the false prophet, his fiat currency. Rome will heal America's wound by refinancing the dollar, making the United States completely subservient. Under Roman authority the false prophet will prophesy the nations into one world religion and obedience to her edicts on penalty of death (Revelation 13:11-18). Under the influence of a lying spirit, the whole world has believed the deceptions of 9/11, WMD; the Bali, Madrid, London, Jakarta and other bombings; al Qaida, terrorism, SARS, bird flu, climate change, peak oil and other hoaxes (II Thessalonians 2:11). Illuminus Jewish President F.D. Roosevelt said, "If something happens in politics, you can bet it was planned that way." The United States has been maneuvered into a pre-planned compromise.

A hundred and seventy years after the death of Ahab and Jezebel Assyria conquered Israel and transported her citizens throughout the empire where their descendants live to this day. As God prophesied Israel's destruction, He has also prophesied the destruction of the United States: "this great nation is going to strike a war that's going to blow it to bits" (Laodicean Church Age, p. 500:43). Revelation 19:17-21 describes the battle of Armageddon, which takes place after Rome has broken her agreement with the International Banksters and forced the mark of the beast with US military aid. The secular powers withdraw from their alliance and side with Russia and the forces of Communism. Revelation 17:16-17, "the ten horns which you saw on the beast shall hate the whore, make her desolate and naked; they will eat her flesh, and burn her with nuclear fire. For God has put into their hearts to fulfill His purpose in mutual agreement to give their authority to the beast, until the Words of God are fulfilled" by Israel's regeneration in one day. Armageddon follows the nuclear destruction of Rome and the United States of America prophesied by Jesus Christ and Brother Branham.

In previous Newsletters we have quoted the Audio Letters of Dr. Peter Beter (1921-1987), a Washington lawyer, member of the US Court of Military Appeals and US Supreme Court, Counsel to the US Export-Import Bank, and an international financial and legal consultant. Dr. Beter advised the Pentagon and US Administration of intelligence concerning the location of hundreds of Russian nuclear devices planted in volcanoes, fault lines, rivers, dams, ports, bridges and infrastructure throughout the United States, and the coordinates of nuclear missiles submerged in US territorial waters.

"The Angel standing in the sun" was foreshadowed by the vision of Matthew 16:27—17:8, signifying the 'erchomai' Coming of the Son of man in His Kingdom after six days of a thousand years for a thousand years of peace. His Light exceeds the light of the sun and in New Jerusalem the sun and the moon will not rise and shine because of His presence, for He is its Sun and Light, Himself, and we Gentiles who enter into it will walk in His Light (Isaiah 24:23).

The Bright and Morning Star reveals Him as the fullness of the Word and Judge, brighter than stars of the Church Age, having in His Lightbeams healing for resurrection, glorification and "the restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began" for the thousand-year honeymoon of the Bride and Groom.

As Micaiah confirmed the prophecy of Elijah, the Logos unveiled confirms the prophecy of Ezekiel 39:17 and Brother Branham (Revelation 19:17-18), calling the fate of spiritual Ahab and Jezebel as Elijah called the fate of their natural type. This is not "the Wedding Supper of the Lamb" to which the Lord has called the elect of all Ages, but "the great supper of God" to which He is calling the damned.

In speaking of Spiritual Israel crossing from shadow of the Law into the Light of the Son (Revelation 12:1), the Prophet taught, "That Sun is the Word of God. . ." (Shalom #13:5, p. 13:70). And in every Age, "she" the Church became "He" the Word when she walked in the Light as He was in the Light. This symbol signifies the last of God's elect, the 144,000 Israelites are united with the Lord, and "the atoms will soon be burning, and the heavens will be on fire as II Peter 3:7 said, and will burn with fervent heat. The atoms of the earth will catch fire soon. There'll be a relay, and there'll be not even dust left of the people" (William Branham, Conference with God, #61-0410).

Malachi 4:1-3, "Behold, the day of judgment is coming, burning like a furnace. The arrogant and all evildoers shall be as straw; they will be consumed like a tree. It shall leave them neither root nor branch. But for you who fear My Name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in His beams, giving you glorified bodies; and you shall go forth into the Millennium leaping as calves let out from the stall into pasture. And you shall tread down the wicked; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I do this, says the Lord of hosts."

After the tribulation the wicked will be ashes, thus Satan will be bound until the general resurrection of his subjects after the Millennium (Matthew 3:12).

"The king of Syria commanded his thirty two captains that had rule over his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel" (I Kings 22:29-40). In place of the battle contemplated by the beast and the kings of the earth, the beast and the false prophet are seized and cast alive into the lake of fire where "their worm dies not, and their fire is not quenched" (Daniel 7:11). "The rest," that is, "the kings and their armies" are not immediately cast into the lake of Fire, but for the present only killed in the body by the sword of God's Word, and all life on earth is destroyed (Daniel 7:12).

The Angel who comes down from heaven" in Revelation 20:1-2 signifies Christ who in accordance with Revelation 1:18 has the key of death and of the realm of the dead (Hades). The abyss is contiguous with Gehenna, which will not be ready to receive its guests until after the general resurrection and the White Throne Judgment. Death and hell follow Satan, the rider of the Fourth Seal, as the preliminary condition that binds his power throughout the Millennium transition of creation from time to eternity in which the Kingdom is restored to Israel (Isaiah 24:21-22; Daniel 7:11-12; 9:24; Revelation 6:8). This verse contradicts the theory of those who deny the demonic origin of sin, derived exclusively from the sensual or material nature of man.

Judgment, which includes rulership, was granted to the saints of the first resurrection, (I Corinthians 6:2; Revelation 1:6; 5:10; 20:4), "and we shall rain on earth," not in heaven as the Seventh Day Adventists presume, for "heaven is God's throne," but earth is the domain of King Jesus and His Queen. New Jerusalem, which is God's elect, "comes down from God out of heaven." Christ first receives "judgment" and the "kingdom," then the saints with Him (Daniel 7:9, 13-14, 22; Matthew 19:28; John 5:27; Romans 8:17). These "souls of those who were beheaded" are the theophanies of the disembodied elect martyrs of the Church, "and they lived" being resurrected in glorified bodies.

"This is the first resurrection," proving that there is a "rapture" and out-resurrection from the dead as distinct from the resurrection of the dead. As surely as "the rest of the dead lived not (again) until the thousand years were finished" refers to the bodily general resurrection, so must the first resurrection refer to the body.

These Scriptures promise the rapture of Christ's Bride:

Luke 14:14
Luke 20:34-36
John 14:1-3
John 11:25-26
John 13:36
Romans 8:23
I Corinthians 15:12, 21, 51-54
Philippians 3:8-11, 20-21
James 5:7-8
Revelation 4:1-2
Revelation 22:7,12,20

Isaiah 24:21-23, "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited. Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously". eb453.htm

Bible Believers' Newsletter 454

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you could join us in His praise.

By whatever it takes, Satan wants to control your mind. He wants the thoughts of every person on the planet to conform to his "politically correct" yet thoroughly deceptive illusions because "he was a liar and murderer from the beginning." God yearns to dwell in your heart by mutual love in the unity of the faith. Satan would have us to be manpleasers, conforming to popular conventions of his device. But like natural Israel, we are a called out people, separated from the world and the things of the World in order to conform to God's unchanging Word, which is Spirit and eternal Life.

Among Satan's conventions is Christmas, which is the Sun-god's birthday although we are supposed to believe it to be the birthday of the Son of God who was actually born in April. We are supposed to believe God is a Trinity which is once again paganism. We are taught the so-called Jews are God's chosen people, yet prior to the eighteenth century there was no such word in any Bible and Jews are a non-Semitic people at enmity with God and Adam's race. We are also told to believe Jesus was a Jew when He is the last Adam, not the last Cain, a Hebrew and an Israelite of the Tribe of Judah and certainly not a Jew as we will explain.

As indicated by prophecy, the maniacs ruling this world, "who say they are so-called Jews and Christians, and are not, but lie," are preparing for the "hot" stage of World War III after the first week of April.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ,

Real US Shortfall: $4.6 Trillion in Red

December 17, 2006– "The 2006 federal budget deficit of $4.6 trillion is $1.1 trillion more than the 2005 federal budget deficit," econometrician John Williams, who publishes the website Shadow Government Statistics, told WND. "The Bush administration is in an untenable situation with a budget deficit this dramatic. Taxing 100 percent of all wages, salaries, and corporate profits would not eliminate a deficit of this magnitude, and cutting Social Security and Medicare spending is politically impossible."

In his subscription newsletter, Williams comments that the GAAP accounting numbers reported in the 2006 Treasury report show that, "the actual deficit number was nearly 19-times the size of the gimmicked 'official' deficit for 2006 of $248 billion. Total obligations were 4.2-times annual U.S. gross domestic product (GDP)."

"The federal government is bankrupt," Williams explained to WND. "In a post-Enron world, if the federal government were a corporation such as General Motors, the president and senior Treasury officers would be in federal penitentiary."Full story: worldnetdaily.com  truthout.org

McGuinty says Christmas Tree Ban 'Unfortunate'

Toronto, December 14, 2006– A judge's order to have a Christmas tree moved from the lobby of an Ontario courthouse for fear it would offend non-Christians backfired Thursday, drawing the ire of everyone from the Muslim Canadian Congress to Premier Dalton McGuinty.

Ontario Court Justice Marion Cohen ordered the tree moved from the lobby of the Toronto courthouse to an out-of-the-way corridor because it was a Christian symbol that might not make everyone entering the building feel comfortable.

"This is stupidity and takes political correctness to new heights," said Farzana Hassan, president of the Muslim Canadian Congress. "We should ban political correctness, not the Christmas tree." Full story: theglobeandmail.com

Comment: Note the name of this Judge. Her action is based upon ignorance, racial and religious hatred, not concern for others. Christmas trees, like Christmas, are pagan.

Confessions from My beating Heart

I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are: Christmas trees . . .

I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period. I have no idea where the concept came from that America is an explicitly atheist country. I can't find it in the Constitution, and I don't like it being shoved down my throat. Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship Nick and Jessica and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him? . . . Full story: snopes.com

History of God's Holy Bible and the so-called Jews

The Etymology of the Word "Jew"

In his classic Facts are Facts, Jewish historian, researcher and scholar Benjamin Freedom writes:

Jesus is referred as a so-called "Jew" for the first time in the New Testament in the 18th century. Jesus is first referred to as a so-called "Jew" in the revised 18th century editions in the English language of the 14th century first translations of the New Testament into English. The history of the origin of the word "Jew" in the English language leaves no doubt that the 18th century "Jew" is the 18th century contracted and corrupted English word for the 4th century Latin "Iudaeus" found in St. Jerome's Vulgate Edition. Of that there is no longer doubt.

The available original manuscripts from the 4th century to the 18th century accurately trace the origin and give the complete history of the word "Jew" in the English language. In these manuscripts are to be found all the many earlier English equivalents extending through the 14 centuries from the 4th to the 18th century. From the Latin "Iudaeus" to the English "Jew" these English forms included successively: "Gyu," "Giu," "Iu," "Iuu," "Iuw," "Ieuu," "Ieuy," "Iwe," "Iow," "Iewe," "Ieue," "Iue," "Ive," "Iew," and then finally the 18th century, "Jew." The many earlier English equivalents for "Jews" through the 14 centuries are "Giwis," "Giws," "Gyues," "Gywes," "Giwes," "Geus," "Iuys," "Iows," "Iouis," "Iews," and then also finally in the 18th century, "Jews."

With the rapidly expanding use in England in the 18th century for the first time in history of the greatly improved printing presses, unlimited quantities of the New Testament were printed. These revised 18th century editions of the earlier 14th century first translations into the English language were then widely distributed throughout England and the English speaking world among families who had never possessed a copy of the New Testament in any language. In these 18th century editions with revisions the word "Jew" appeared for the first time in any English translations. The word "Jew" as it was used in the 18th century editions has since continued in use in all the editions of the New Testament in the English language. The use of the word "Jew" was thus stabilized. . .

The best known 18th century editions of the New Testament in English are the Rheims (Douai) Edition and the King James Authorized Edition. The Rheims (Douai) translation of the New Testament into English was first printed in 1582 but the word "Jew" did not appear in it.

The King James Authorized translation of the New Testament into English was begun in 1604 and first published in 1611. The word "Jew" did not appear in it either. The word "Jew" appeared in both these well known editions in their 18th century revised versions for the first times.

Countless copies of the revised 18th century editions of the Rheims (Douai) and the King James translations of the New Testament into English were distributed to the clergy and the laity throughout the English speaking world. They did not know the history of the origin of the English word "Jew" nor did they care. They accepted the English word "Jew" as the only and as the accepted form of the Latin "Iudaeus" and the Greek "Ioudaios." How could they be expected to have known otherwise? The answer is they could not and they did not. It was a new English word to them.

When one studies Latin he is taught that the letter "I" in Latin when used as the first letter in a word is pronounced like the letter "Y" in English when it is the first letter in the words like "yes," "youth" and "yacht." The "I" in "Iudaeus" is pronounced like the "Y" in "yes," "youth," and "yacht" in English. In all the 4th century to 18th century forms for the 18th century "Jew" the letter "I" was pronounced like the English "Y" in "yes," "youth," and "yacht." The same is true of the "Gi" or the "Gy" where it was used in the place of the letter "I."

The present pronunciation of the word "Jew" in modern English is a development of recent times. In the English language today the "J" in Jew" is pronounced like the "J" in the English "justice," "jolly," and "jump." This is the case only since the 18th century. Prior to the 18th century the "J" in "Jew" was pronounced exactly like the "Y" in the English "yes," "youth," and "yacht." Until the 18th century and perhaps even later than the 18th century the word "Jew" in English was pronounced like the English "you" or "hew," and the word "Jews" like "youse" or "hews." The present pronunciation of "Jew" in English is a new pronunciation acquired after the 18th century.

The German language still retains the Latin original pronunciation. The German "Jude" is the German equivalent of the English "Jew." The "J" in the German "Jude" is pronounced exactly like the English "Y" in "yes," "youth," and "yacht." The German "J" is the equivalent of the Latin "I" and both are pronounced exactly like the English "Y" in "yes," "youth," and "yacht." The German "Jude" is virtually the first syllable of the Latin "Iudaeus" and is pronounced exactly like it. The German "Jude" is the German contraction and corruption of the Latin "Iudaeus" just as the English "Jew" is the contraction and corruption of the Latin "Iudaeus." The German "J" is always pronounced like the English "Y" in "yes," "youth," and "yacht" when it is the first letter of a word. The pronunciation of the "J" in German "Jude" is not an exception to the pronunciation of the "J" in German. . .

The translation into English of the Gospel by John, XIX.19, from the Greek in which it was originally written reads "Do not inscribe 'the monarch of the Judeans' but that He Himself said 'I am monarch.'" In the original Greek manuscript the Greek "basileus" appears for "monarch" in the English and the Greek "Ioudaios" appears for "Judeans" in the English. "Ioudaia" in Greek is "Judea" in English. "Ioudaios" in Greek is "Judeans" in English. There is no reason for any confusion.

If the generally accepted understanding today of the English "Jew" and "Judean" conveyed the identical implications, inferences and innuendoes as both rightly should, it would make no difference which of these two words was used when referring to Jesus in the New Testament or elsewhere. But the implications, inferences, and innuendoes today conveyed by these two words are as different as black is from white. The word "Jew" today is never regarded as a synonym for "Judean" nor is "Judean" regarded as a synonym for "Jew."

When the word "Jew" was first introduced into the English language in the 18th century its one and only implication, inference and innuendo was "Judean." However, during the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries a well-organized and well-financed international "pressure group" created a so-called "secondary meaning" for the word "Jew" among the English speaking peoples of the world. This so-called "secondary meaning" for the word "Jew" bears no relation whatsoever to the 18th century original connotation of the word "Jew." It is a misrepresentation . . .

There is not a person in the whole English-speaking world today who regards a "Jew" as a "Judean" in the literal sense of the Word. That was the correct and only meaning of the word in the 18th century . . . (Facts Are Facts, by Benjamin H. Freedman, p. 15-21).

The meaning of the word "Jew" in our Bible is not the same as the colloquial idiom.

In the Bible the word "Jew" means a resident of the land of Judaea regardless of their tribe, race or religion just as an Australian or Englishman may in fact be a Chinese, Negro or an Eskimo, or perhaps a member of the tribe of Judah (Judahite). According to the Greek Lexicon in Strong's Exhaustive Concordance:

Jew: Greek word #2453 Ioudaios (ee-oo-dah'-yos); from #2448 (in the sense of #2455 as a country); Judaean, i.e. belonging to Jehudah ["Judah" in Hebrew language of Old Testament]: KJV Jew (-ess), of Judaea.

Greek word #2448 Iouda (ee-oo-dah'); of Hebrew origin [Hebrew word #3063 or perhaps #3194]; Judah (i.e. Jehudah or Juttah), a part of (or place in) Palestine: KJV Judah.

Greek word #2455 Ioudas (ee-oo-das'); of Hebrew origin [Hebrew #3063]; Judas (i.e. Jehudah), the name of ten Israelites; also of the posterity of one of them and its region: KJV Juda (-h, -s); Jude.

Genesis 49:10 prophesied, "The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto Him shall the gathering of the people be."

Judah was the largest and the most influential of the twelve tribes with the governing right. Jacob prophesied it would maintain its pre- eminence until Shiloh, or Messiah, came. He would then take headship and receive the allegiance of true spiritual Israel as Isaiah 9:6-7 foretold. Matthew 1 and Luke 3 trace Jesus' human lineage to David, Judah, Jacob and Abraham. Jesus took the sceptre from Judah and we who receive Him as Messiah give Him our allegiance.

In the days of His flesh few of the citizens of Judea were Judahites. Some belonged to one of the other tribes of Israel, and many were descendants of Esau (Edomites) who had assimilated and become co-religionists with the Judahites and remnants of the other tribes in the hybrid religion of Pharisaism developed during the captivity in Babylon. This is the religion of the Talmud is called Judaism today; it was condemned by Jesus since it is the antithesis of the Mosaic Law and the prophets and makes the Word of God of no effect (Matthew 15:1-9).

John 7:1, "After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for He would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill Him."

According to Strong's Greek Lexicon, the English word "Jewry" in this verse was translated from the Greek word #2449 Ioudaia {ee-oo-dah'-yah} feminine for the land of Judea. Modern translations no longer use the word "Jewry" but the correct translation, "Judea," as in the New American Standard Bible: "And after these things Jesus was walking in Galilee; for He was unwilling to walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him." The New International Version uses the same word. However, these translations continue to improperly use the word "Jews" in the same verse. A consistent translation would read: ". . . He was unwilling to walk in Judea, because the Judeans were seeking to kill Him."

Today most people think of Jews as the people of Israel, but that is not correct. An Israelite was one who had descended from Jacob. In Jesus' time individual Jews may or may not have descended from Jacob, but they all recognized Pharisaism and not the Law of Moses. A Jew is properly a Judean.

The point is that one who is called a "Jew" in the Bible is not necessarily a chosen man of God, a follower of Moses and the prophets, a member of the tribe of Judah, an Israelite, or even a Semite, but one who is a resident of Judea. A Judean. But a well-organized and well-financed international "pressure group" created a so-called "secondary meaning" for the new word "Jew" which is not the understanding intended by the Scripture of truth. Those who call themselves Jews today falsely imply they are somehow descendants of the tribes of Israel and chosen of God. Yet few of them are Jews as they are not "Judeans," or residents of Judea.

So if modern day so-called Jews are not the Jews of the Bible, who are they? When asked, "Who is Israel?—Who is a Jew?" the Israeli Government's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) unhesitatingly answered:

"The term Israelite is purely Biblical. An Israeli is a citizen of Israel, regardless of religion. A Jew is a person anywhere in the world born to a Jewish mother, or converted to Judaism, who is thus identified as a member of the Jewish people and religion" (Information Division, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jerusalem; February, 1998).

The Jewish Almanac concurs: "Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew [an] "Israelite" or a "Hebrew." The first Hebrews were not have been Jews at all, and contemporary Palestinians, by their own definition of the term "Palestinian," have to include Jews among their own people" (The Jewish Almanac, October, 1980, page 3, Bantam Books, Inc).

The Online Etymology Dictionary describes the etymology of the word 'jew,' but perhaps because its editor is not a Bible student it exhibits an ignorance of the meaning of the original Greek word Ioudaios derived from the Aramaic jehudhai which did not refer to members of the tribe of Judah but to Judeans, the residents of the Babylonian province of Judea. The spelling of our present-day English word Jew is a transliteration of an abbreviation or slang word coined by their Babylonian conquerors for Judeans without reference to the race or religion of the captives. The editor has inadvertently discriminated the Semitic tribesmen of the sons of Israel from the diverse mass of races and religions then resident in Judea by applying the incorrect colloquial idiom, not having recognized the true and Biblical meaning of the original words.

The Introduction of the Word "Jew" into God's Holy Bible

In 1604, James VI, King of Scotland from his youth, became King James I of England, the first ruler of Britain and Ireland. Because of the growing animosity of James toward the Puritans, a leading Puritan spokesman, Dr. John Reynolds, proposed that a new English Bible be issued in honour of the new King. King James saw an opportunity to bring about a unity with the church service in Presbyterian Scotland and Episcopal England. Completed and published in 1611, the new Bible became known as the "Authorized Version" because its making was authorized by King James. It became the "Official Bible of England" and the only Bible of the English church. There have been many revisions of the King James Bible, 1615, 1629, 1638, 1762 and 1769.

The most important changes occurred in the eighteenth century. In 1762 Dr. Thomas Paris published an extensive revision at Cambridge. In 1769 Dr. Benjamin Blayney after about four years of work, brought out another at Oxford. The latter work included much modernization of spelling, punctuation, and expression. These changes were due to printing errors and spelling changes in many words. This update represents the exact words in the 1611 Bible first edition, only the spelling is changed. This 1769 update is the basis of the King James Bible of our time and use; the Apocrypha was officially removed in 1885.

Any so-called "1611" King James Version you buy today at the local Christian Bookstore is absolutely NOT the 1611. . . it is the 1769 revision, even though it admits that nowhere, and may even deceivingly say "1611" in the frontpiece to promote sales . . . it is just not true. The spellings have been revised and some words changed in almost every printing done since 1769, and fourteen entire books plus extra prefatory features have been removed from almost every printing done since 1885!

If you really love the King James Version the way to own a true, unaltered, unedited, unabridged, original 1611 version as authorized by King James, is to spend US$125,000 to US$400,000 and purchase a genuine original, US$250 for an exact photographic facsimile edition, or US$1,995 for The Deluxe Full-Size Limited Edition 1611 King James Bible Facsimile.

The early editions of the Authorized Version contained the Apocrypha, not because the translators believed—they listed seven reasons why the apocryphal books were to be categorically rejected as part of the Inspired canon—but because the king asked that it be included. So, instead of scattering the Apocryphal books all through the Old Testament as in the Rheims-Douai and other Roman Catholic Bibles, they placed all of the Apocryphal books by themselves between the Testaments.

There is not now nor was there ever an equivalent letter "j" in the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Nor is there any Hebrew letter that carries even an approximate sound of the consonant letter "j." Neither is there a letter 'j' in the Greek alphabet. "J," the tenth letter and seventh consonant in the English alphabet, is the latest addition to English script and has been inserted in the alphabet after "I," from which it was developed. Petrus Ramus (1515-1572) is credited as the first to distinguish I and J as representing separate sounds. Not until the middle of the 17th century did the use of "j" as an initial become universal in English books.

Jerome translated the Bible into Latin in the fourth century. John 19:19 refers to the inscription Pilate posted over Jesus' cross. In our modern English Bibles we read, "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews," translated from the Greek "Ieous Nazoraios Basilius Ioudaios" but the Latin Vulgate reads, "Iesus Nazerenus Rex Iudaeorum." This is usually abbreviated INRI as on all statues and imagery because there was no J.

Contrary to what most people believe Shakespeare never saw the word "Jew" nor did he ever use the word "Jew" in any of his works, the common general belief to the contrary notwithstanding. In his "Merchant of Venice," V, III, I, 61, first published in about 1600, Shakespeare wrote as follows "what is the reason? I am a Iewe; hath not a Iewe eyes?"

In Samuel Johnson's English Dictionary of 1755 and 1756 words beginning with "I" and the new letter "J" are interspersed. There is no listing for the word "Jew" in either his 1755 or 1756 editions although "To Judaize" is defined as "To conform to the manner of the Jews" in both.

The corrected re-issue of the 1933 edition of The Oxford English Dictionary lists the first published usage of the word "Jew" in:

Sheridan's 1775 play, "The Rivals," Act II, Scene I, "She shall have a skin like a mummy, and the beard of a Jew."

1653 Greaves' "Seraglio," 150. "In the King's Seraglio, the sultanas are permitted to employ divers Jewes-women about their ordinary occasions". And,

1700 Bishop Patrick's Commentary on Deuteronomy 28:37, "Better we cannot express the most cut-throat dealing, than thus, you use me like a Jew".

The earliest version of the New Testament in English from the Latin Vulgate Edition is the Wiclif, or Wickliff Edition published in 1380. In the Wiclif Edition Jesus is there mentioned as One of the "iewes." That was the 14th century English version of the Latin "Iudaeus" and was pronounced "hew-weeze," in the plural, and "iewe" pronounced "hew- wee" in the singular.

The 1841 English Hexapla contains six English translations of the New Testament arranged side by side for easy comparison and reference. The six English translations are: The Wycliffe version of 1380 (the first English Scripture, hand-copied prior to Gutenberg's invention of the printing press in 1455), The Tyndale version of 1534-1536 (the first English printed Scripture), and Cranmer's Great Bible of 1539 (the first Authorized English Bible). Continuing across each right-hand page is: The Geneva "1557" translation actually completed in 1560, (the English Bible of the Protestant Reformation), The Rheims 1582 (the first Roman Catholic English version), and the 1611 King James First Edition.

In the 1380 Wiclif Edition in English the Gospel by John XIX.19, reads "ihesus of Nazareth kyng of the iewes." Prior to the 14th century the English language adopted the Anglo-Saxon "kyng" together with many other Anglo-Saxon words in place of the Latin "rex" and the Greek "basileus." The Anglo-Saxon also meant "tribal leader."

In the Tyndale Edition of the New Testament in English published in 1525 Jesus was likewise described as One of the "Iewes."

In the Coverdale Edition published in 1535 Jesus was also described as One of the "Iewes." Also in the Coverdale Edition the Gospel by John, XIX.19, reads "Iesus of Nazareth, kynge of the Iewes."

In the Cranmer Edition published in 1539 Jesus was again described as One of the "Iewes."

In the Geneva Edition published in 1540-1557 Jesus was also described as One of the "Iewes."

In the Rheims Edition published in 1582 Jesus was described as One of the "Ievves."

In the King James Edition published in 1611, also known as the Authorized Version, Jesus was described again as one of the "Iewes." The forms of the Latin "Iudaeus" were used which were current at the time these translations were made.

The word "Jew" does not appear in any of these Bibles. Jesus is referred to as a so-called "Jew" (which He was not) for the first time in the New Testament in the 18th century editions in the English language of the 14th century first translations of the New Testament into English. The first Bibles in which the word "Jew" first appears are:

1729 Daniel Mace New Testament is the first Bible to contain the word "Jew", here in Romans 2:13– 3:21.

1750 Douai newly revised and corrected by Richard Challoner according to the Clementin edition of the Scriptures, The Holy Bible translated from the Latin Vulgate, first published by the English College at Doway, Anno 1609.

1752 Douai newly revised and corrected by Richard Challoner according to the Clementin edition of The New Testament of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Translated out of the Latin Vulgate, first published by the English College of Rhemes, Anno 1582.

1755 Wesley, New Testament with Explanatory Notes by John Wesley.

1769 Benjamin Blayney modernised the spelling, punctuation, and expression of the 1611 edition of the Authorised or King James Bible.

1770 Worsley New Testament or New Covenant of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ translated from the Greek with notes by John Worsley.

The fascinating story of how we got the Bible in its present form actually starts thousands of years ago, as briefly outlined in this Timeline of Bible Translation History. As a background study, we recommend that you first review the discussion of the Pre-Reformation History of the Bible from 1400BC to AD1400, which covers the transmission of the Scripture through the original languages of Hebrew and Greek, and the 1,000 years of the Dark & Middle Ages when the Word was imprisoned in Latin. The starting point in this discussion of Bible history, however, is the advent of the Scripture in the English language with the "Morning Star of the Reformation," John Wycliffe.

What is a Jew?

Speaking to His elect Church Jesus said, "I know your affliction and your poverty, but you have heavenly riches, and I know the blasphemy of them who say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan . . . Take note, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, but are impostors who lie, to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you"  (Revelation 2:9; 3:9).

Speaking to the so-called Jews who were of the sect of the Pharisees (or Judaism) Jesus said, "You serpents, offspring of vipers, how can you escape being sentenced to hell fire? Therefore take notice, I will send you prophets, and wise men, and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify; and some of whom you will flog in your synagogues, and persecute from town to town, that upon you may come all the righteous blood that has been shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zachariah the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. I assure you, all these things shall come upon this race" (Matthew 23:33-36).

Jesus identified these so-called Jews as the descendants of Cain.

Speaking to Cain God said, "What have you done? The voice of your [half-]brother's blood cries to Me from the ground. And now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened her mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand" (Genesis 4:10-11).

Speaking to Christ's end-time Bride regarding the Words of Jesus, the prophet William Branham said, "Here is a verse that will bear considerable thought, not only because it is most peculiar in its contents, but also it is virtually repeated in an age that is over a thousand years later. . . To begin with, the word, Jews, does not describe the religion of the Jewish people. It refers only to the people of Judah and has the same precise meaning if I were to say I am Irish born. These people were saying that they were actually Jews, real Jews by birth. They were liars. They were not Jews by birth and they weren't Jews by religion."

(The word Jew was coined by Nebuchadnezzar's troops as an abbreviation of the word "Judean." A Jew or Judean is one who is a resident of Judea regardless of his religion, race, or nationality. Every resident of Palestine is a "Jew" whereas the so-called Jews living abroad are not Jews at all, neither by residence, nor by birth, nor by religion. This is confirmed by the Bible in the Old and New Testaments, Jewish historians such as Josephus, Professor of Medieval Jewish History at Tel Aviv University, A. N. Poliak in his book Khazaria (1944, 1951); American historian Professor Dunlop of Columbia University in his article on the Khazars in the Encyclopaedia Judaica (1971); Noam Chomsky in his book, Fateful Triangle, Arthur Koestler in his masterpiece, The Thirteenth Tribe; Professor Heinrich H. Graetz in his History of the Jews, p. 141 (1891-98); Soviet archaeologist M. I. Artamonov in Istoria Khazar, Benjamin Freedman in Facts are Facts, Chief Rabbi of the United States, the late Steven S. Wise, the Message of William Branham the Prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7, every Jewish and all Gentile encyclopedias affirm that barely any so-called Jew is an Israelite let alone Semitic. Note also that Judaism is Pharisaism based on the Talmud, which is the antithesis of pre-exilic Yahweh Torah or Yahwism, the Law and the Prophets, and accursed of God in Matthew 15:1-9, and Moses in Deuteronomy 5:22; 12:32).

"If all this is true, what were they? They were a deceived people who were already part of the church. They belonged to the false vine."

(Brother Branham is explaining how the Roman Catholic church, which organized at the Hegelian dialectic of the First Nicaea Council in AD325, had its beginnings as the First Church of Rome founded in AD36 by the apostles Junius and Andronicus (Romans 16:7). This church apostatized when the elders, who had emigrated from Judea to escape the persecution of the Jews (Acts 8:1), were subsequently expelled from Rome by Emperor Claudius along with all Judeans (Acts 18:2). It was thirteen years before the Judeans could return, and when the Christian elders returned they found the First Church of Rome would not repent).

"They were not of the true church, but of the false church because God said "they were the synagogue of Satan." Now the word for synagogue is not the same word we use for church. In the Bible, church means, "the called out ones," or the "summoned ones." The Psalmist said of these elect people, "Blessed is the man whom THOU CHOOSEST, and CAUSEST to approach unto Thee, that he may dwell in Thy courts" (Psalms 65:4). But the meaning of synagogue is "assembly or gathering." This can be good or bad, but in this case it is bad, for these are they who's assembling is not of God but of their own selves. Isaiah said of them, "Behold, they shall surely gather together, but NOT BY ME: whosoever shall gather together against Thee shall fall for Thy sake" (Isaiah 54:15). And since these were surely against the true vine, God will one day deal with them in destruction."

"Now why do we have a people mixed in the framework of the church and calling themselves Jews? The reason is this: Since they were liars they could make any claim they wished. They could say what they wanted as though it were a fact and then stick to it. And in this case they could be lying with a very powerful thought in mind. Was it not so that the early church was almost if not entirely composed of Jews, making them the original members of His body? The twelve apostles were Jews, and the later apostles were either Jews or proselytes. Thus for men to swear they were Jews would give them a pre-eminence and a claim to originality. Tell a lie. Stick to it. Never mind fact or history. Just say it and keep saying it to the people, and soon the people will receive it."

"Now did you catch something there? Isn't that the same spirit right in the church today? Isn't there a group that claims that they are the original and true church and that salvation is found only in her? Don't they claim that they have the keys of the kingdom which they received from Peter? Don't they claim that Peter was their first pope, and that he resided in Rome when there is ABSOLUTELY NO HISTORICAL FACT FOR IT? And even her most educated and knowing adherents believe her lies. Satan's synagogue! And if Satan be her father, and he the father of lies, then it is not strange that those in his synagogue are liars also."

"Consider the thought of blasphemy. These of Satan's synagogue were not blaspheming God in this instance (though that goes without saying) but they were blaspheming the true Church. Certainly. As Cain persecuted and killed Abel because he (Cain) was of that wicked one, and as the dead formal Judaic followers (Jesus said they were of their father, the devil) tried to destroy the Christians in the first few years of the first age, now this same group (the false vine) is even more strongly attempting to destroy the true believer in the second age. That antichrist spirit is growing."

"The group that inched its way ever so slowly into the church by its DEEDS (Nicolaitanism) no longer fears exposure but is openly organized in a group of its own assembling and is coming against the true Church in undisguised hostility."

"Now when I say this was an organized antichrist church I am giving you the truth from authenticated history. The first church founded in Rome (we will trace its history in the Pergamean Age) had already turned the truth of God into a lie by introducing a pagan religion with Christian names and meaning. By the second age it was so pagan (though claiming to be the true church) that Polycarp came about 1,500 miles at a very old age to plead with them to turn back. They would not do it. They had a solid hierarchy and a solid organization, and a complete departure from the Word. This then, is Satan's synagogue, full of blasphemy, in which were already the seeds of the doctrine of Nicolaitanism, and which would shortly be the actual seat or power of satanic religion. And this is exactly right for Revelation 2:9b does NOT say these people are OF Satan's synagogue but it says they ARE SATAN'S SYNAGOGUE" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 119:4– 121:3).

Revelation 3:9, "Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you."

Brother Branham continues: "The natural types the Spiritual. This verse deals with the Jews who have always called themselves the children of God to the exclusion of everyone else. They sought their righteousness after the Law and failed miserably, for by the Law can no flesh be justified. By the Law can no man be made holy. Holiness is of the Lord. I Corinthians 1:30, "But of HIM are you in Christ Jesus, Who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption." II Corinthians 5:21b, "That we might be made the righteousness of God in Him." It was Christ or perish, and they perished for they refused Him."

"In the Sardis Church Age Martin Luther restored the revelation that justification is by faith and not works, but the Lutherans organized and joined with the state and again we see the synagogue of Satan manifested in denominationalism. As the Jews took refuge in the synagogue form of worship, so in the Philadelphian Age men were taking refuge in the church. It is not joining a church that counts. The life is not in the church. The life is in Christ. "This is the record that God has given us eternal Life and this Life is in His Son. He that has the Son has Life, and he who has not the Son has not Life." Man is made holy by the Spirit. It is the Spirit of Holiness that raised Jesus from the dead that in-dwells us and makes us holy with His holiness."

Brother Branham went on to explain, "This problem of the false Jew or false believers was already in existence in the second age. These who falsely called themselves Jews appeared right after the first outpouring of the first age, and now they appear again in the second age after the reformation. This is hardly an accident. Indeed, it is not an accident. It is a principle of Satan. That principle is to organize and claim originality and therefore be entitled to special rights and privileges. Let me show you. Back there in the Smyrnaean Age these people lied and said they were actually Jews (or believers) when they definitely were not. They were of the synagogue of Satan. They were Satan's organized crowd, for it was in that age we saw the start of men in the ministry taking an unwarranted leadership over their ministering brethren. (Bishops set up in districts, over elders). The next thing we saw was that in the third age there was definitely a place called "Satan's seat." That age gave us church and state marriage. With the power of the state behind her the church was literally physically invincible."

"But God broke that hold in spite of the power of the state and the reformation brought great light. But what happened? The Lutherans organized and joined with the state and again we see the synagogue of Satan manifested in this sixth age. Now of course this synagogue group wouldn't say they are of Satan. No sir. They say they are of God. But they lie. For he that is a true Jew (that is what they claimed to be) is one who is a Jew inwardly—in the Spirit. (He who is born of the Spirit that was in Jesus Christ, the King of Judah, is a Judahite—not a Jew or Judean, for the Life is in the blood and we are the blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Spirit– Ed). So then if they are false Jews it means that they are as Jude 19 says, "having NOT the Spirit." Children of God are born of the Spirit. These have not the Spirit and therefore they are NOT children of God no matter how fervently they protest and to what lengths they go to try to prove that they are. They are DEAD. They are children of organization, and the true fruits are missing. They are built upon their own creeds, dogmas and doctrines and the truth is not in them for they have taken their own counsels above the Word of God."

"Let me show you what I have been trying to teach all along about the two vines which come from two different spirits. Take the example of Jesus and Judas this time. Jesus was the Son of God. Judas was the son of perdition. God entered into Jesus. Satan entered into Judas. Jesus had a full Holy Ghost ministry for "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: Who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him" (Acts 10:38). It says "For he (Judas) was numbered with us, and had obtained PART of this ministry" (Acts 1:17). Matthew 10:1, "And when He had called unto Him His twelve disciples, He gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease."

"That spirit that was in Judas went right along through the ministry of Jesus. Then they both came to the cross. Jesus was hanged upon the cross, gladly giving His Life for sinners and commended His Spirit to God. His Spirit went to God and then was poured out into the church at Pentecost. Judas hanged himself and his spirit went back to Satan, but after Pentecost that same spirit that was in Judas came back to the false vine that grows right along with the true vine. But notice, Judas' spirit never got to Pentecost. It never went up to receive the Holy Spirit. It could not. But what did that Judas spirit go for? It went for the bag of gold. How it loved money. It still loves money. If it goes about in the Name of Jesus doing mighty things and holding great meetings, it still makes more of money and buildings, and education and everything with a material concept. Just watch that spirit that is upon them and don't be fooled. Judas went about as one of the twelve and he did miracles, too. But he did NOT have the Spirit of God as his own. He did have a ministry. He never got to Pentecost as he was not true seed. He was not a true child of God. No sir. And it is that way right now in the synagogue of Satan. Don't be fooled. You won't be fooled if you are of the very elect. Jesus said you wouldn't be fooled."

"Yes, these folks say they are Christians but they aren't."

"I will make them come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee." I Corinthians 6:2, "Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world?" Not only will there be twelve apostles on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel but the saints, also, will judge the world. That is when these who claim to belong to God and claim that God loves them will find out exactly who is the child of God and who is loved of the Son. Yes, that day is coming when it will be made manifest. These who are now ruling the world in a measure, and who during the last age will build an image to the beast whereby they will actually rule the world, will one day be humbled when Jesus comes with His saints to judge the world in righteousness. That is exactly what we saw in Matthew 25 when "All" the ones who missed the first resurrection will stand before the Judge and His Bride" (ibid 310:2-313:2).

So-called Jews

Genesis 27:39-41, "Isaac, Esau's father said to him, Your dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; you will sustain yourself by your sword, and you shall serve your brother; but you will finally take the dominion and break his yoke from your neck. And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing which his father bestowed on him: and Esau said to himself, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob."

Esau/Edom, the so-called Jew, has been killing Jacob/Israel from that day to this. His had took dominion over the Israelites after John Hyrcanus defeated and forcibly assimilated Edom into the kingdom of Judah 100 years before the birth of Christ. Hence Jesus would not live in Judea "for fear of the [Edomite] Jews" who will rule Israel unto the consummation of life on earth (Daniel 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2, 8).

The Bible is not a Jewish Book. Let us consider the claim that our Christian Bible and our religion came from the Jews, meaning Jews by religion. It is certain the New Testament did not from them, for the Jewish religion is condemned throughout the New Testament. But did we get the Old Testament from them? No! In the first place, no Jew by religion existed before the return from the Babylonian captivity, shortly after 536BC. Their great historian Josephus writes, "So the Jews prepared the work. Jew is the name they are called by from the day that they came up from Babylon." The only books of the Old Testament that were written after the return from Babylon are Kings, Chronicles, Ezra and Nehemiah (all of them historical, rather than doctrinal), Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi. In none of these do the Jews receive anything but rebuke for their wickedness, and their apostasy from the religion of the Old Testament. Rabbi Stephen F. Wise, Chief Rabbi of the United States said, "The return from Babylon and the introduction of the Babylonian Talmud mark the end of Hebrewism and the beginning of Judaism."

The Old Testament text in our Bibles appears not merely to have been corrupted, but to have been purposely corrupted, as an attack upon the Christian Faith! Perhaps one of the most significant problems with the KJV lies in the manuscripts from which it was translated. The Old Testament (mentioned here for the sake of completeness) was translated from the Masoretic Text, a thoroughly corrupted and Talmudic Jewish-produced and inspired text of the Hebrew Testament. The fact that the Masoretic Text was used for the Old Testament of the KJV also has a clear impact upon the New Testament, for the translators of both Testaments had direct and indirect contact with leading Hebraists of the day for purposes of textual and etymological consultation, and it must be understood that all of these leading Hebraists were Talmudic Jews. The counterfeit Masoretic text was created between AD500 and AD1030 and first published in 1427.

Jesus Christ was not a Jew. Had Jesus been a Judean it is very likely He would have been an Edomite, not a kinsman to Adam, and thereby disqualified from being the Holy One of Israel, the last Adam, who was born to redeem the first (Leviticus 25; Ruth). Were Jesus a so-called Jew He would not have been Messiah whom the Lord prophesied would dwell in Galilee of the Gentiles (Isaiah 9:1-7). Jesus did not live in Judea and dared not walk in Jewry (i.e. Judea), "for fear of the Jews" who sought to kill Him.

"Five things did Canaan charge his sons: love one another, love robbery, love lewdness, hate your masters, and do not speak the truth" (Talmud, Peshachim 113b). As we read in Genesis, the Jews have sworn to slay the Israelites, and are "the people against whom God has indignation forever" (Genesis 9:25; 27:39-41; Isaiah 34:1-9; Malachi 1:1-4).

The prophet Paul knew exactly who he was, and that the word "Jew" indicated his place of residence, and not that he was of Judah or any of the other Tribes of Israel. Acts 22:3, "I am verily a man who is a Jew, born in Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, yet brought up in Jerusalem at the feet of Gamaliel, and taught according to the perfect manner of the Law of the fathers, and was zealous toward God, as you all are this day." Philippians 3:4-5, "If any other man thinks that he has whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more: circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee".

Almost no Jew is a Hebrew and Israelite by descent, or even a Semite. According to the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, Jewish rabbis and historians, every Jewish and all Gentile encyclopedias, the mass of so-called or self-styled Jews may be traced to their vicarious father, Lucifer, through the original sin in the garden of Eden, which was adultery between Eve and the Devil-incarnate Serpent, a handsome upright man-like beast before God changed every bone in his body and placed him on his belly (Genesis 3; Matthew 23:33-36; John 8:23-47).

The so-called Jews also teach this doctrine of the original sin, found in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, but they teach us Goyim or non-Jews are "human cattle," animals God created in human form in order to serve the Jews, but this is contrary to God's unchanging Word (Midrasch Talpioth; Yebamoth 98a; Schene Luchoth Haberith, p. 250b). The original sin and the fall of man is explained in the following teachings:

The Original Sin 1/3; The Original Sin 2/3 ; The Original Sin 3/3, and But the Woman being deceived, was in the Transgression.

This explains why Jesus agreed with the Pharisees that they were Abraham's seed, but qualified his statement: "You are of your father the Devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his natural proclivity: for he is a liar, and the father of it." These Edomite Jews were descendants of Abraham and Isaac through Esau but they were not the descendants Jacob and therefore not in the covenants God made with Abraham and with Moses. Esau married three wives. His Hittite and Canaanite wives being Serpent seed and not in Adam's race, their offspring likewise are not in the Book of Life and accursed of God (Genesis 26:34-35). They have no kinsman Redeemer for Jesus Messiah is the last Adam; He was not the last Cain. And although Esau's children by his Ishmaelite wife are in Adam's race, they are not in the covenants God made with Israel.

Esau is Edom that is assimilated with Jewry. The Bible, all Jewish encyclopedias and historic records state "Edom is in modern Jewry" (Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925 edition, Vol. 5, p. 41). "Some anthropologists are inclined to associate the racial origins of the Jews, not with the Semites, whose language they adopted, but with the Armenians and Hittites of Mesopotamia, whose broad skulls and curved noses they appear to have inherited" (The Jewish Encyclopedia, (1905), Vol. X, p 284).

At no time was there ever a Jew nation, nor was there ever a "Jew" race. Not a single Jew stood before Mount Sinai when God delivered the Law to Israel, and God never made any covenant with the Jews. Jesus agreed with the carnal minded Pharisees that they were Abraham's descendants but when they declared they had never been captives of Egypt, Babylon or Israel's Canaanite neighbours, they betrayed themselves as Edomite Jews captive of sin, and not Israelites (John 8:33-34). It is therefore correct to identify Jews, by and large, as an "ethnic" (i.e. heathen non-Israelite, non-Christian) people, as the self-styled peak representative body of Australian Jewry have had written into law, and to trace their origin to the original sin in the garden of Eden, which spawned Cain, whose lineage continues on this side of the Flood in the descendants of Canaan.

God commissioned Moses to deliver the people of Israel to the Promised Land saying, "When the Lord God brings you into the land whither you go to possess, and has cast out the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you; you shall smite and utterly destroy them; you shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy to them" (Deuteronomy 7:1-3; 12:2; 20:16-17).

The Hebrew word translated "utterly destroy" is 'cherem.' Both the people and the land of Canaan were 'cherem,' meaning FORCIBLY dedicated to God as withdrawn from His service and worship wherein He was not glorified, and by the hands of another, devoted to Him for destruction whereby He will be glorified. The equivalent Greek word is "anathema." In the case of the Canaanites who were natural Serpent's seed, cherem is the consecration to God of His enemies (Hebrew "hated ones"– Isaiah 34:1-8; Malachi 1:2-3; Romans 9:13), and their belongings by means of fire and sword.

God commissioned Joshua, "Be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the Law, which Moses My servant commanded you: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left that you may prosper wheresoever you go. This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and have good success" (Joshua 1:7-8).

This man of God was deceived by these accursed people when he made a covenant with them without first consulting the Lord (Joshua 9). Ezra, Nehemiah, Obadiah, Malachi and the other prophets describe how the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob intermarried through "multiculturalism." Later, in AD740, the nation of Khazaria was converted overnight and inducted into Jewry by Talmudic Jews from Babylon.

Every Jewish historian of note, and all encyclopedias, Jewish and otherwise, agrees that only a tiny remnant of so-called Jews is Semitic. None of these possess the faith of Abraham and few worship according to Yahweh Torah instituted by Moses. The few who are not atheistic or agnostic mostly follow Talmudic Judaism which is Pharisaism and anathema to Moses and the prophets.

According to Jewish historian Josephus, the Israelitish high priest John Hyrcanus "subdued all the Idumeans; and permitted them to stay in that country, if they would circumcise their genitals, and make use of the laws of the Jews; and they were so desirous of living in the country of their forefathers, that they submitted to the use of circumcision, and of the rest of the Jewish ways of living; at which time therefore this befell them, that they were hereafter no other than Jews".

This account of the Idumeans admitting circumcision, and the entire Jewish law, from this time, or from the days of Hyrcanus, is confirmed by their entire history afterward. See Antiq. B. XIV. ch. 8. sect. 1; B. XV. ch. 7. sect. 9. Of the War, B. II. ch. 3. sect. 1; B. IV. ch. 4. sect. 5. This, in the opinion of Josephus, made them proselytes of justice, or entire Jews, as here and elsewhere, Antiq. B. XIV. ch. 8. sect. 1. However, Antigonus, the enemy of Herod, though Herod were derived from such a proselyte of justice for several generations, will allow him to be no more than a half Jew, B. XV. ch. 15. sect. 2. But still, take out of Dean Prideaux, at the year AD129, the words of Ammouius, a grammarian, which fully confirm this account of the Idumeans in Josephus: "The Jews," says he, "are such by nature, and from the beginning, whilst the Idumeans were not Jews from the beginning, but Phoenicians and Syrians; but being afterward subdued by the Jews, and compelled to be circumcised, and to unite into one nation, and be subject to the same laws, they were called Jews." Dio also says, as the Dean there quotes him, from Book XXXVI. p. 37, "That country is called Judea, and the people Jews; and this name is given also to as many others as embrace their religion, though of other nations." But then upon what foundation so good a governor as Hyrcanus took upon him to compel those Idumeans either to become Jews, or to leave the country, deserves great consideration. I suppose it was because they had long ago been driven out of the land of Edom, and had seized on and possessed the tribe of Simeon, and all the southern parts of the tribe of Judah, which was the peculiar inheritance of the worshippers of the true God without idolatry, as the reader may learn from Reland, Palestine, Part I. p. 154, 305; and from Prideaux, at the years 140 and 165" (Flavius Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, XIII, 9:1).

In AD64 Rome's Jewish emperor Nero wantonly and mercilessly persecuted the Christians, and condemned Paul to a martyr's death. In AD135 Bar Cochba led a revolt against Rome in which about a million non-Jews were sadistically slaughtered (Gibbon, Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire; Westcott, Introduction to Study of the Gospels, p. 132, ed. Boston, 1862). Six thousand years of history is replete with wars, famines, massacres and economic conspiracies engineered by a "hidden hand" always working under a different name and in another occupation so that he does not appear as a protagonist although by intrigue and finances he steers both sides of the conflict to achieve a pre-planned outcome of his own design (Genesis 4:14), for God has placed "enmity" between the Seed of the Serpent and the seed of the first and last Adam. The enmity is extant and his slaughter of Adam's race, particularly professing Christians and Hebrews who are Israelites, will continue unto the consummation of all life on earth (Genesis 3:15; 27:39-41; Matthew 23:32-36; Revelation 18:24).

The wily Khazar, king Bulan, whose kingdom was sandwiched between the Muslim Caliphate and Byzantine Rome, emulated the Gibeonite strategy for political advantage when his Asian court became Talmudic Jews overnight in complete ignorance of the tenets of that religion, followed by his non-Semitic hordes of Mongolian descent. One of many who have traced the history of this "Kingdom of the Jews," was Jewish historian Arthur Koestler in his classic, The Thirteenth Tribe. In his "History of Jews in the United States," Rabbi Levinger admits 82% of American Jews are of Asiatic descent: non-Semitic, anti-Semitic (Genesis 27:41) self-styled or so-called Jews.

At the peak of their power the Khazars controlled or exacted tribute from some thirty different nations and tribes inhabiting the vast territories between the Caucasus, the Aral Sea, the Ural Mountains, the town of Kiev and the Ukrainian steppes. The people under Khazar suzerainty included the Bulgars, Burtas, Ghuzz, Magyars (Hungarians), the Gothic and Greek colonies of the Crimea, Slavonic tribes in the north-western woodlands. Beyond these extended dominions, Khazar armies also raided Georgia and Armenia and penetrated into the Arab Caliphate as far as Mosul in Iraq. The Russians defeated Khazaria between the 10th and 11th centuries and inherited most of their lands. The Khazars continued their warfare against Russia for the ensuing thousand years until their invasion from the East side of New York brought them victory in 1917. Financed by their tribesmen in Britain and the United States, they enslaved, raped and pillaged the Russian nation as earlier they mercilessly extorted tribute from countries neighbouring Khazaria. The assassination of Stalin brought about the demise of their power over Russia.

Today the Khazars control the United States of America and extract tribute as they did from their neighbours in the first Millennium AD. Munya Mardoch, Director of the Israeli Institute for the Development of Weaponry, said in 1994, "The moral and political meaning of nuclear weapons is that states which renounce their use are acquiescing to the status of Vassal states. All those states which feel satisfied with possessing conventional weapons alone are fated to become vassal states." Thus Israel is able to hold the threat of using her nuclear arms against her neighbours to extract non-repayable loans and grants from the United States.

After the extinction of their kingdom, the Khazars dispersed. They established themselves in Venice and Genoa and from the Venetian and Genoese oligarchies they began marrying into the Royal houses of Europe. Khazar and Sephardim Jews (who were often Canaanites) dispersed throughout Europe and continued their predatory pursuits as infamous usurers and tax-gatherers until after long sufferance by their host nations they were expelled to wander to some other place.

William the Conqueror was financed by Jews expelled from Spain, and having secured the benevolent neutrality of the Holy Roman emperor Henry IV and with solemn approval by Pope Alexander II, he invaded England in 1066 (Encyclopedia Britannica, Vol # 23, p. 609). There is no evidence of Jews residing in England before the Norman Conquest. William the Conqueror brought the Jews into England with him from Rouen, Normandy, 2,600 of them followed after his invasion. At first treated with special favor and allowed to amass considerable wealth, they collected books and built themselves palatial residences; two or three of them are mentioned as physicians, and several monks are said to have been converted to Judaism. "They brought to England their own form of commerce and a system of rules to facilitate and govern it . . ." (Foootnote 11: H.C. Richardson, The English Jewry Under Angevin Kings (1960) p. 94). They established the Exchequer and subsequently converted into a class of "royal usurers" so abhorrent to the English that in 1290 Edward I expelled them all, over 16,000 Jews, principally owing to the problem of usury. (See the trilogy of historian Sir Arthur Bryant, and JCR-UK—Jewish Communities of the U.K.).

Oliver CromwellIn 1647 the English traitor Oliver Cromwell, whose revolution was financed by Manasseh Ben Israel and Moses Carvajal of Amsterdam, allowed Jews to return to England, though the order of banishment was not rescinded by Parliament. History proves that the objective of the International Jewish money lenders was to obtain control of England's economy and government. It was to Antonio Fernandez Carvajal, a Portuguese Marrano (secret Jew) who outwardly passed as a Spanish Catholic merchant, that Cromwell gave the assurance of the right of Jews to remain in England. Under the date February 4, 1657, Burton, in his diary, states: "The Jews, those able and general intelligencers whose intercourse with the Continent Cromwell had before turned to profitable account, he now conciliated by a seasonable benefaction to their principal agent [Carvajal] resident in England." His trading connections enabled him to give Cromwell and his secretary, Thurloe, important information as to the plans both of Charles Stuart in Holland and of the Spaniards in the New World (see L. Wolf, "Cromwell's Secret Intelligencers"). Spying activity is continued today by millions of sayanim, the Anti-Defamation League, Jewish Defense League, etc. According to the archives of the Board of Deputies of British Jews established in 1760, the earliest minutes were written in Portuguese reflecting the influence of the Portuguese Jews on Trade.

Rabbi Manasseh ben IsraelFollowing the British Israel hoax devised by the Cabbalist Astronomer to Queen Elizabeth I, John Dee (1527– 1608), and trading on the Messianic illusions of the Puritans, in 1650 Rabbi Manasseh ben Israel of Amsterdam published Hope of Israel, in which he advocated the return of Jews to England as a preliminary to the appearance of the Messiah. The Messiah could not appear till Jews existed in all the lands of the earth. According to Antonio de Montesinos, the Ten Tribes had been discovered in the North-American Indians, and England was the only country from which Jews were excluded. If England admitted them, the Messianic age might be expected.The next invasion financed by Amsterdam Jews, headed by Solomon Medina, placed William of Orange on the throne of England in 1689 and made it possible for the conspirators to set up the Bank of England, and institute the National Debt, securing for the usurers a first charge on the taxes of England for interest on their loans, and the right to print money was transferred from the Crown to this private "Bank of England." The same pattern was followed in the establishment of the Jew's Federal Reserve non-bank in the United States and other central banks tied in with the City of London's Bank of International Settlements.

Crest of City of LondonUnder another name and in a different occupation the International Jews have controlled Britain from that day to this (Genesis 4:14). The so-called British Empire was in reality ever the Empire of the City of London. Australia, the United States and other former colonies remain subservient to the City, spilling the blood of their citizens and borrowing at usury to finance Judaeo-Communist takeovers and fight the City's wars of conquest in pursuit of world hegemony. Jewish author Cecil Roth's House of Nasi compares the underground funnelings of Jewry after their expulsion from Spain and Portugal, with the network set up under Hitler a little later. eb454.htm

"We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; may you have a closer walk with Him this New Year.

"Men seek peace, they say, but do they really? They are also said to seek liberty. Not at all: they look for peace in time of war, and for war in time of peace. They seek liberty under tyranny, and tyranny when they are free" (Miguel de Unamuno, The Tragic Sense of Life in Men and Nations). Without Christ man is double-minded and has no Absolute.

Deanna Spingola writes: "With continuous support from distinctive Christian theocons Bush professes the Iraqi quagmire is a good versus evil crusade and that he is on God's errand. On June 4, 2003, Bush reportedly said: God told me to strike at al-Qaeda and I struck them, and then He instructed me to strike at Saddam, which I did, and now I am determined to solve the problem in the Middle East. He doesn't mention that al-Qaeda and Saddam were both established and financed by the CIA. Nor does he acknowledge the monstrous sums of taxpayer dollars that are pumping up administration-friendly companies who make millions of dollars as a result of the Iraqi invasion. Claiming that God approves of the horrific death toll and continuing violence against non threatening foreign citizens is a shameful effort to cover the stench of death emanating from the Middle East. . ." Anyway, thanks for the memories.

William Shakespeare said, "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players" (As You Like It, 2:7). Most people see the mask but fail to identify the actor behind the mask (Genesis 4:14). God set enmity between the children of Cain and the generation of Adam (Genesis 3:15). This enmity is extant as Jesus certified in Matthew 23:33-36, John 8:44, Revelation 2:9, and 3:9. The Babylonian Talmud confirms this in the Last Will of Canaan: "Five things did Canaan charge his sons: love one another, love robbery, love lewdness, hate your masters, and do not speak the truth" (Peshachim 113b).

Working under a different name and in another occupation they deceived Joshua (Joshua 9), they betrayed Judea in their defense of Jerusalem against the armies of Nebuchadnezzar, and before the birth of Messiah they had defeated Judea by assimilation and miscegenation enforced by John Hyrcanus. In the days of Noah God destroyed all but one beautiful woman of this accursed race yet our corrupt politicians, anxious to please the international banksters and alien lobbyists who fund their controlled political parties and guarantee their re-election, and unregenerate churchmen who would never offend the Devil and his children, celebrate and sponsor this repetition of the original sin disguised as 'multiculturalism.'

They invaded England under William the Conqueror, and their invasion under William of Orange made them the true rulers of England and her empire to this day. The late eighteenth century saw the beginning of their heavy migration to the United States whence after a thousand years of warfare they invaded and conquered Russia in 1917. They exterminated 34 million mainly nominal Christians, but after Stalin's assassination the Russian people regained political mastery and began to expel the leaders of these people who migrated to Israel but primarily to the United States, where having usurped the Laodiceans they now rule under a different name and in another occupation.

Morally, culturally, spiritually, and by force of laws they have overpowered apostate Christendom as they overpowered the Hebrew people of Israel. Multiculturalism is multiracialism and miscegenation with the lineage of Cain is genocide to Adam's race today as it was in the Garden of Eden, and "as it was in the days of Noah" (Genesis 6:4; Matthew 24:37).

Like Judea, the (once) Christian West has been defeated from within because we let down the bars of God's unchanging Word and the goats came in. We fell for Thomas Jefferson's folly that "all men are created equal," when from Scripture and observation we know this is an egregious sin. Like Noah, we are deceived by the mask, preferring not to acknowledge the identity of the hidden hand of the sons of Cain behind its facade. And since we have failed to stand upon God's Word they are now our masters and we dare not speak of them openly, except in praise.

Believers in the Message of Brother Branham who have lived through his years of ministry and are students of true history will appreciate the intelligence in the Audio Letters of the late Dr. Peter Beter which confirms the Message and helps us to understand Satan's plan behind the past hundred years of history and see its place in the prophecy of Scripture.

On January 1, 2007 Bulgaria and Romania will become members of the reviving Roman Empire. The European Union will then include twenty-seven countries with close to 487 million inhabitants. It will stretch as far as the Black Sea after Western and Central Europe, Southeastern Europe—heirs to a different history—join the EU. "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." The head of the Greek Orthodox Church, Monsignor Christodoulos, Archbishop of Athens, is delighted that the "voice of Orthodoxy" is to be strengthened by the arrival of the two new countries. Thus we see the prophecy of Daniel 2 producing the totalitarian one world government foretold in Daniel 9 and Revelation 17 under an alliance between the International Jews and the Roman Catholic church to refinance the US dollar.

And the dollar is at a nine-year low against the Thai baht, a country that recently experienced a military coup! Full story: marketoracle.co.uk

Jonathan May tells the "Secrets" of World Bankers!

Jonathan May formerly worked for the International Monetary Fund in England. In the early 1980s he came to America with a plan to release Americans from debt to the banking system by employing the same "credit creating" system used by international banking. The law governing this system is the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). May was initially successful. Eventually, however, he was targeted and imprisoned by the banking system. . .

America's Injustice System is Criminal

December 12, 2006– According to the International Center for Prison Studies at King's College in London, the US has 700,000 more of its citizens incarcerated than China, a country with a population four to five times larger than that of the US, and 1,330,000 more people in prison than crime-ridden Russia. The US has 5% of the world's population and 25% of the world's prisoners. The American incarceration rate is seven times higher than that of European countries. Either America is the land of criminals, or something is seriously wrong with the criminal justice (sic) system in "the land of the free." In the US the wrongful conviction rate is extremely high. One reason is that hardly any of the convicted has had a jury trial. No peers have heard the evidence against them and found them guilty. . . Full story: propagandamatrix.com

Comment: "Prosecutors have lost sight of innocence and guilt." Truth is no defense before Judges blinded by the corrupt law of the 'hidden hand' of the City of London, Rothschild's B.A.R., and the London Lawyers' Guild.

US could face Catastrophic Military Defeat in Iraq

December 17, 2006– Moderate imperialists may still find the one reasonable option, the expeditious departure of US land forces, unacceptable. They should compare withdrawal not with the unattainable illusion of military victory (even at considerable cost), but rather with the decimation or even annihilation of the US expeditionary force in Iraq over the coming months. This would be a US disaster of incalculable proportions, but it is the outcome which Baker-Hamilton and most commentators have neglected. Compared to the thorough destruction of 150,000 troops, a speedy departure of army and marines, however embarrassing, appears far more attractive. Those who wish to support and defend US troops must face the fact that the only way to do this is to remove them from the ring that is presently closing around them in the US occupation zone in central Iraq. . .
