COMMENTARY & OPINION

XLVI

PROPHETS

When a nation's leaders devolve to the point spoken of in Isaiah 1:23, then citizens must look elsewhere for wisdom and leadership.  "Your princes are rebellious and companions of thieves: every one loves gifts and follows after rewards.  They judge not the fatherless, neither does the cause of the widow come unto them."  Does this describe America today?

Prophets come to us in strange apparel.  Job and Abraham were wealthy men.  Moses was an Egyptian General that conquered Ethiopia.  Amos was a herdsman and Jonah was regurgitated on the beach by a whale if we are to believe the stories that come down to us through the "…lying pens" of the Jewish scribes.  (See Jer 8:8).

The following is a comment to an editorial concerning the proposed intervention in Syria and, while quite evidently from one not long on education, it seems to pack more wisdom than all our politicians in DC: 

"OH,thats funny, the land of war criminals, going around calling dictator to anyone who don’t kiss their ass, AND IF they have anything to steal, GOD help the population of that country, CAUSE americans ARE THIEFS, their police gangs are thiefs, their courts and judges are thiefs, there ain’t no level in america who aren’t thiefs even the churches are thiefs now, BUT ASSAD and his family are BAD,BAD,BAD……….are you ready america, CAUSE THE RUSSIANS are about to CUT YOUR FAT NOSE OFF, there ain’t many countries who haven’t been robbed by america, BUT ITS OVER NOW, the world is coming to take back what was stolen from them,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"

I believe this is echoing what I have been saying in these Commentaries for many months.  We don't like to hear it and we certainly don't want to believe it, but open the door of the "denial closet" you are living in and take a look around you at the world situation.  Why do you suppose 150,000 Russian troops are in our country right now?

Why do you suppose the present economic crisis was intentionally spawned by giving billions to profligate bankers?  Why do you suppose the nations are lining up as described by the prophets Isaiah and Jeremiah for the final standoff?  Wake up America!  Take off those rose colored glasses and give yourself a shot of reality.  We have won our last war!  When we intervene in Syria, two hundred million Americans are going to die! 

Is this the rantings of a religious nut disconnected from reality?  No! This is a warning from one who has written a treatise entitled "A SCAM Called Christianity".  And it isn't merely "Christianity" but all religion that is a SCAM and the tool used by Satan to "…deceive the whole world", (See Revelation 12:9), and collect scads of money in the process.  I have also written a treatise showing that America is the "Image of the Beast" spoken of in Revelation 13.  And the closer you look into it, the more firmly it becomes undeniable.

The book of Daniel was written in the 6th century BC but was sealed and not to be opened until the "time of the end" (see Daniel 12:4&9).

THAT BOOK HAS NOW BEEN OPENED FOR SOME 3 YEARS! 

The SCAMs that have been our religious upbringing have conditioned us to believe that the world is going end in a fireball.  But then, they have also conditioned us to believe that a fat man in a red suit can come down a small chimney without getting soot on his suit.  Our religion and our history is comprised of mythology!  How about the "Columbus discovered America" myth? 

When we throw out the mythology cranked into religion by "Jews" and Jesuits and begin to uncover some of the truths buried for centuries by the confederacy of the "Jews" and Vatican, the whole picture begins to take on a different shape and complexion.  These Commentaries are dedicated to showing that.  If you have been following them, then you have learned where to find the document that shows the Jewish/Catholic confederacy.  You have also learned that we have been under a world government for the past 2600 years.  You have learned that the "Babylon" spoken of in Revelation 18 and the "daughter of Babylon" of Jeremiah 50 and 51 are both referring to America.  You have also learned that the "Image of the Beast" spoken of in Revelation 13 is also America and you learned that the beast we are patterned after is the 4th beast of Daniel 7 and is the Roman Empire.  You have also learned that the Roman Empire did not fall in 476 as the myth promoted by Edward Gibbon in 1776 would have us believe.  And these are only a few of the things you would have learned had you been a regular reader of "Commentary & Opinion". 

But there is not space in this article to restate all these things nor is there time for us to waste because the end of this age is coming our way like a cannonball.  We have a celestial visitor due in our solar system sometime around the first of November of this (2013) year according to a news report November 2012 by Brian Williams.  This event is going to cause much consternation.  It also appears to have the potential for altering the geography of planet earth.  It is going to be 15 times brighter in our night sky than our moon and according to reports leaked by some astronomers, (some of whom are dead now), it is going to make two passes through our solar system.  The first pass, it will come in from the southern skies, pass through, make an "arc over" in the north and return for a second pass through at a later date.  It seems that the lapse of time between these two visits is a carefully guarded secret.  

Our government has access to information we do not have.  But by the same token, we have access to information they don't have (see Daniel 12:10).  Top politicos have hidey-holes called D.U.M.B.s for when the feces hit the fan.  They hope to ride out the nuclear exchange and emerge years later to build a "brave new world".  You can learn a different perspective about this in Isaiah 24:21-22.  You can also see them alluded to in Daniel 7:12.

We are definitely coming to a crossroads and it appears it could be as early as the end of this (2013) year.  Congress will haggle endlessly over the matter that has been put to them, but in the end, with or without Congressional approval, we will have a part in the intervention of affairs in Syria because this is what the bankers are demanding.  If they do not get what they want, our prez will be tossed to the wolves and become another Nixon.  If they do get what they want, our nation will become a nuclear wilderness in a matter of one month (see Hosea 5:7). 

We are witnessing the last generation of bankers and lawyers.  This sounds wild but it will be obvious a few months from now.  The destruction of all Satan's governments and support institutions begins at the time Damascus falls.  You get a hint of this in the first few verses of Isaiah 17.  But as I have told readers for years, the key to learning is in Isaiah 28.  We only learn this "… precept upon precept … line upon line … here a little and there a little."  It's written that way for a purpose and you can find that purpose in verse 13.

At the beginning of this article I gave a comment from someone and it appears somewhat prophetic.  But we also have two prophets warm-ing up in the bullpen right now to bring a message to planet earth and this is going to come as a surprise to most earth dwellers because the promoters of "Christianity" thought they had exterminated all of the prophets almost two millennia ago. 

They really had but these two have been raised up for an end time work are preparing right now for the final three and one half years of this age when they are to bring a message that is to be anything but politically correct.  You can read about them in the 11th chapter of Revelation.  Who are they?  Are they leaders of some religious sect today?  Are they supported by a tithe paying membership and do we see them on TV today?  In answer to those questions, I would like to refer you to Malachi 4:5.  "Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before that coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD."

Will Elijah be resurrected and charged with this responsibility?  Let's look at another scripture alluding to an end time prophet.  Deut 18:15.

"The LORD your God will raise up unto you a Prophet, from the midst of you, of your brethren, like unto me; unto him you shall hearken".

Perhaps we should take a better look at Elijah.  If you read the 19th chapter of I Kings, you will see that when Jezebel sent him a message that she was going to have his head, he asked God to let him die because he was the only one left on earth that feared the LORD.  God's answer to him was that He had reserved some 7000 in Israel that had not bowed the knee to Baal.  Now if these 7000 were tithe paying members of the "Church of Elijah", why is it Elijah did not know about them?  He was the prophet at that time, right?  And yet he felt he was the lone servant of the Eternal left on planet earth. 

Perhaps this gives us a clue as to who the two witnesses (prophets) of Revelation 11 are.  You see, it is much more impressive when a prophet acts alone bringing a message to a ruler that he doesn't want to hear. 

When a minister of this world speaks, he speaks as the head of a political organization.  He speaks with the support of a congregation in much the same way a political candidate speaks with party backing.  When a prophet speaks, he speaks with the authority of the Creator and needs no Board approval for what he says.  The reason the religious politicians wanted Christ dead was because of the authority He spoke with.  That authority was obvious in the weight of the words He used.  It wasn't politically correct and He didn't pander to the rich and/or ruling class.  Religionists follow truth as long as it agrees with their preconceived notions.  Prophets and saints follow truth wherever it leads. 

With this as a background, it would seem to make sense that the Elijah and his counterpart, which it appears will be in the spirit of Moses, (see Rev 11), will be "nobodies" thrust onto center of stage by the Creator Himself.  No glass cathedral, no TV program, no impress-ive following and no tithe paying membership. 

Now let's look at something new that I have never heard discussed before by any minister of any church and once we see the content, we should see why.  First we should understand that "church" is a term given us by the Vatican and is no more a faithful translation of "ekklesia" than is easter a faithful translation for "pesach". 

Nevertheless, we see in Revelation chapter 1, that "the seven candle

sticks" of verse 13 are the seven "churches", (or groups of called out ones - ekklesia).  See verse 20.  We see in chapter 11, verse 4 that the two witnesses (prophets) "…are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks" of Zechariah 4.  Let's look a verse 12 where Zechariah asks "What be these two olive branches which through the two golden pipes empty the golden oil out of themselves?"  The answer is in verse 14.  "These are the two anointed ones."  These are the two being referred to in Revelation 11.  So it appears that the holy spirit (oil) will be dispensed to the ekklesia (the true saints) through these two prophets!   Will this push hot buttons?   

These two prophets are alive today and it appears that their cloak of anonymity could be stripped away as soon as year end (2013).

RETHINKING

In the past few months and years we have learned many things that seem to contradict the myths planted in our mind by religion and modern education.  We have learned that the book of Daniel, sealed at the time of writing (6th century BC) until the time of the end, has been opened.   We have learned that it has opened up many other scriptures to understanding. 

We have learned that most of the religious education we have been exposed to is gross error and filtered through Jews and Catholics, the master deceivers of this world.  We have learned that if we adhere to the method of learning given us in Isaiah 28, ("…precept upon precept … line upon line … here a little and there a little…") that we can be taught knowledge and doctrine.  We have learned that santa, the easter bunny, going to heaven or burning in an everlasting hell are not doctrine at all but damnable heresy. 

And yet the world we are consigned to live in embraces these tenets with gusto.  Why?  Because the world is steeped in idolatry.  It's that simple.  The world has been seduced by mythology and the doctrine of Balaam.  And when you begin to understand the doctrine of Balaam, you will begin to see it is espoused by virtually every religion in America today. 

We have learned that the "Christian" concept of Christ's return is in error.  These concepts are many and varied so really which one is correct? We need to consider seriously that none of them are.

The world is about to come unglued and it will happen when Damascus becomes "…a smoking ruin" by whomever's hand.  That is the flag that opens the door to America's demise "…in one hour."  We have won our last war!   The one being haggled over by congress at this time contains our complete and total destruction and it would seem that our politicians are totally oblivious to this. 

We need to understand what the "work" is that is to be revived, "…in the midst of the years", as noted in Habakkuk 3:2.  Is it the work of the two witnesses of Revelation 11? 

We need to understand that the "time of the end" consists of seven years and that the "Time of Jacob's Trouble" begins midway in these seven years evidently at the same time the "work" is revived.  This is also the time of the fall of Babylon (America - see Jeremiah 50 & 51). 

We can see in Daniel 7 that the Ancient of Days is going to be on earth for the coronation of the new "King of kings and LORD of lords" to occur at the end of Jacob's Trouble.  But if we look at Isaiah 52:12, we can see that both are to be on earth some three and one half years prior to this.  In the New English Translation, it correctly shows that this exodus is from Babylon at the time of Babylon's fall.  And both members of the Godhead will be there to ensure a safe passage out of Babylon.  Is this the beginning of a three and one half year war that culminates in the destruction of all of Satan's governments? 

We need to seriously consider this because when we put all the scriptures together, eliminating the Jewish fairy tales in the Old Testament and the Jesuit deception in the New Testament, a totally new picture emerges as to the return of the Messiah.  It begins to appear that what religionists consider the "second coming" is the triumphant march of the Messiah from Mt Sinai into Jerusalem leaving a 180 mile river of blood (see Isaiah 63:1-3).  His entry into Jerusalem initiates the first resurrection on the 1290th day since the abomination of des-olation was set up and culminates in the coronation some 45 days later (see Daniel 7:13-14).

We have been told in the past that the "Day of the Lord" will last about one year.  With the new concepts, gleaned from the opened book of Daniel, from the books of Haggai and Habakkuk, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jeremiah and Hosea, I feel we should allow room for "…the day of the LORD", to be the three and one half year period beginning with the fall of Babylon.  It appears to be at this time that the Elohim will make themselves known (see Hab 3:2 New English).  It seems it will be at this time that Yahshua will lead the exodus of His people out of Babylon and the Ancient of days will be their rearguard (see Isaiah 52:12). 

Is the reason for the first pass of our celestial visitor this fall, to drop off a working party and to pick them up on the outward bound second pass some three and one half years later?  Is this the time allotted for the destruction of Satan's governments?

I have said many times, and repeat often, that there are going to be many surprises as we come down to the wire.  Are some of these surprises being revealed through the pages of these commentaries?

Can we handle surprises?  The wisest man who ever lived said, "He who answers a matter before hearing it (fully), to him it is folly and shame."  We need to endeavor to maintain a spirit of the Bereans who,"…received these things with all readiness of mind and searched the scriptures daily whether these things were so."

CRITERIA FOR SAINTS

In the Grolier's Dictionary, I find the definition of saints as follows: a) "A person officially recognized by the Roman Catholic Church and certain other Christian churches as being entitled to public veneration and as being capable of interceding for men on earth, one who has been canonized.  b) Any person who has died and gone to heaven."

Isn't this typical of the "spiritual pablum" we have been fed most of our lives?  Is this a part of the deception of "…the whole world"?  Is this an extension of the santa claus and easter bunny myths?  Are we willing to accept this myth that is being promoted in our classrooms across the nation?  Are we willing to join the ranks of those being,

"… destroyed for lack of knowledge"?  Hos 4:6. 

As we approach the end of our nation and the end of the age, we need to perceive the difference between true saints and political saints.  Do true saints have "rights" with the God of the Universe?

Let's look at Revelation 22:14.  "Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city."   The city is the New Jerusalem.

Our perspective today is drawn from a world ruled by Satan for many millennia.  We have no points of reference for the changes that are in the imminent future.  We have no reference points for the millions that are about to die.  We have no reference points for an invasion from outer space that the prophets assured us is coming.  But because we have no reference points for these things, does that mean they are not real?  We shall see in the next few months. 

What was Christ's criteria for those He was calling in order to establish a work that was to go on until His return?  Let's look in the book of John, chapter 1, verse 47.  The occasion is the calling of Nathaniel.  "Jesus (Yahshua) saw Nathanael coming to Him and said of him, 'Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile'" .

Is that the criteria for a saint?  What is guile? 

Grolier's Dictionary says of guile:  "1.  Insidious, treacherous cunning; craftiness, dissimulation…"  If we have read the "Jesuitic oath", (which was contained, as a copy from the Library of Congress, in a  past commentary), we find it is built around guile.  Could we, in any stretch of judgment, consider a Jesuit a candidate for sainthood?  And yet the father of the Jesuitic brotherhood, Ignatius of Loyola, was canonized as a "saint" by the Vatican.  This is why I consider those canonized by the Vatican to be "political saints". 

If we understand where we are today in the "tapestry of time" unfurled to show Nebuchadnezzar what would be happening in the end time, then we know that this age of deception is very near over. And it is not merely something to happen in this generation but is almost certain to happen in this political administration.

It would seem that the absence of guile is the overriding criteria for sainthood.  I shall not go into all the scripture references here because I'm writing to the wise of the world so it is presumed that you all have concordances and can look up the word "guile" for your-selves. 

Religionists follow truth as long as it agrees with their preconceived notions.  Saints follow truth wherever it leads.  Saints know God's name (Isaiah 52:6).  Saints are the salt of the earth (Matthew 5:13).

Saints do not have to die in order to become saints, (Acts 9:13, 32, 41/26:10).  The saints shall judge the world in the near future, (I Cor 6:2). 

The world is approaching a crossroads.  The biggest military reversal in all of recorded history is about to occur.  Two hundred million Americans are about to die and this is only 13% of the total projected deaths worldwide as the 4th seal of Revelation 6 is opened.  We are already three years into the "time of the end" and rapidly approaching the mid point when the "Time of Jacob's Trouble" begins.  The rule of bankers, lawyers, politicians, money moguls and oil kings is almost over.  In Ezekiel 18, we can see who is about to die. 

It begins to appear that the advance party of the coming invasion from outer space, will make their entry (and make themselves known) in the next few months.  I have shown in past Commentaries where to find this information.  They will be working behind the scenes as the armies of Satan deplete their arsenals (and the population of planet earth) fighting among themselves.  The war for dominion of the earth will revolve around Jerusalem and an army of some two hundred million will be marching on Jerusalem from the east.  (Rev 9:16)  By this time the population of earth will have been reduced significantly.  It appears that this is the army dealt with by the Captain of the space invasion and is covered in the first few verses of Isaiah 63.  His march culminates in Jerusalem where he picks up 144,000 recruits for his army and they begin the battle of Revelation19 where the armies of the beast that are left are converted to vulture food. 

In Daniel 7:11, we see the culmination of this battle when the leader of those armies (called the "beast" in scripture) is slain and cremated. In the next verse, we see that those in their hidey-holes (D.U.M.B.s) have just had their "…dominion taken away", but will not be dealt with immediately because there is just too much going on to be concerned with them at this time. 

In the very next two verses (13-14), we see the coronation ceremony installing the Captain of the space invasion as the new ruler of planet earth.  Are we ready to watch this "war of the worlds" begin?  It would seem that it will begin when we intervene in Syria.  The "…time appointed".
