Bible Believers’ Newsletter #563
“We focus on the present Truth – what Jesus is doing now. . .”
ISSN 1442-8660Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are pleased you could join us in fellowship around God’s unchanging Word.
In Newsletter #548 I made reference to a vision the Lord showed Brother Branham in 1961 wherein he shot a caribou with forty-two inch horns, and afterwards a silver tip grizzly bear. The vision came to pass, confirming its deeper symbolism will also be fulfilled. I said, “I have long believed this animal Brother Branham saw in the vision and later shot signified the total number of US presidents to the end of the Gentile dispensation”.
According to media terminology there is now a 44th President in the White House, however he is in fact the 43rd individual to be president. In Newsletter #430 I explained: 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 was the 42nd President of the United States.
Referring to Bullinger’s “Number in Scripture” I wrote, 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.There were:
42 churches that agreed to sponsor a series of Brother Branham’s meetings but unbelief overcame them all so that he had no sponsoring churches.And here will be:
42 months during which God will deal with 144,000 elect Israelites through the ministry of two Hebrew prophets.I also spoke of dictatorship. Whatever takes place, the US Constitution is “broke a little more” as Brother Branham said it would be; there is a fearsome depression on the way as he prophesied, and an imposter in the White House. But whoever was elected would be president of a nation that committed the unforgivable sin in 1956/7, the year America rejected her last opportunity for national repentance. On the downward slope since, her future is one of global brutality as the image to the beast of Imperial Rome to force the mark of the beast for Papal Rome, which is her pagan trinity doctrine.
For many years now, the United States has been practicing for this prophetic role of infamy. She is cold motherless broke, with no productive industry whereby she can produce her way into the black. Soon Los Angeles and much of California will sink, eliminating some 25 percent of GNP, collapsing the dollar and world economy. Russia will invade and briefly occupy the mainland, throwing the nation and the world into Rome’s totalitarian one world government which will pay handsomely for the mercenary services of the blooded US military.
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 Problem with Obama. . .
January 22, 2009 – A “New Beginning,” or . . . Same Stuff, Different Color? The more things “change,” the more they stay the same.
On 20th January, a major part of America’s citizenry celebrated the arrival of Barack Obama as the new president of the United States, with his promise for “Change” and his proposal for “hope instead of fear.” The breaking of racial barriers in the land of the Ku Klux Klan, where until the 50’s and 60’s mixed marriages between blacks and whites were illegal and would land you in jail in Southern states like Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina and Arkansas (and yet hypocrisy and ignorance made millions of Americans feel “outraged” at the 1935 Nazi Nuremberg Racial Laws!), mark a turning point in US history symbolized by the reborn spirit of Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln and the Kennedy’s.
America’s present joy with its new president is shared by the overwhelming majority of global public opinion, not so much because of the optimism Obama’s arrival inspires, but rather because of the relief that Bush’s and Cheney’s departure gives. Naturally, Obama has a daunting task before him, but he personally has the support of the better part of his people who seem ready to make great sacrifices to overcome gigantic economic, financial, banking, military, political, diplomatic and social disasters Obama inherits from the Bush Era.
So far, so good.
However, the problem with Obama is not Obama himself, a mostly unknown and inexperienced American politician. The problem with Obama is the very powerful group of key officers and aides that surround the new president, which one is led to believe were not freely chosen by Obama; rather, they seem to have been imposed upon Obama by the New World Order Power Structure that for many decades wields control over the United States, and without whose complacency, agreement and support Barack Obama would probably have never made it outside of the political borders of his home state of Illinois. . .

BUSH Legacy: Sellout
January 16, 2009 – Fearing the North Slope oil find might trigger a “black gold rush” like the Oil Creek “oil rush” during the Civil War, with potential to collapse the wholesale price of oil worldwide, lobbyists for the Seven Sisters and the oil industry-financed environment movement petitioned Truman to create a wildlife habitant where oil drilling would be banned.
Just as the global banking cartel controls the price of money and the availability of credit by manipulating the fractional reserve to expand and contract the economy at whim, the fossil fuel cartel control the retail prices of all of the world’s fossil fuels by manipulating the futures market to expand and contract the supply of crude oil, natural gas and, at the pump, gasoline and home heating oil. . .
The seabed regulations have created a bizarre regulatory regime which is antagonistic to commerce, exploration and investment. L.O.S.T. treats the ocean’s “unowned” seabed resources as property of the United Nations. The same happens with mineral wealth in the seabeds of the protected marine reserves. . . under the seabeds in the Pacific Remote Islands is the world’s largest oil and natural gas reserves. Preliminary estimates suggest the oil and natural gas reserves under the Pacific Remote Islands Monument will dwarf the combined reserves under the North Slope or Alaska and the Arabian Peninsula. . . Clearly, the purpose of nationalizing 335 thousand square miles of the South Pacific seabeds was to place thousands of miles of unowned seabeds off limit by preventing entrepreneurial oil speculators from tapping into some of the richest oil and natural gas properties in the world. . .

Comment: This monstrous, systemic fraud by Mammonite political and business leaders, and Lucifer’s United Nations helps us understand how US ‘diplomats’ offered the Taliban government of Afghanistan US$43 million taxpayer dollars to build oil and gas pipelines, saying, “either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold, or we bury you under a carpet of bombs” (Inter Press Service, November 15 2001), then together with her sister colonies of ‘the City’ and NATO, the US initiated war to steal the land.
The Rockefeller family, which owns a controlling interest in the Seven Sisters (that evolved into ten oil companies then slowly began merging back into the original Standard Oil (under the name Exxon-Mobil in order to exercise more global clout): Mobil, Exxon, Chevron, Standard Oil of New Jersey, Standard Oil of Ohio, Amoco, Sunoco, Conoco, Texaco, Atlantic Richfield, and British Petroleum [now known as BP America]) has, throughout most of its tainted history, been very conscious of the public’s perception of the Rockefeller name since that perception has never been good. The Seven Sisters and Royal Dutch Shell actually own, in partnership agreements with the Arab nations, a piece of almost every oil well in the Mideast, in what is now called Russia, and in the South Pacific with the People’s Republic of China. A secret agreement was signed between Exxon/Mobil, Texaco/Amoco and the People’s Republic of China almost two years ago to “farm” what is believed to be the largest untapped oil reserve in the world in the South China Sea around the Pacific islands America won from Japan in World War II. Those islands: Baker Island, Howland Island, Jarvis Island, Johnson Atoll, Kingman Reef, Nassau Island and Palmyra Island were abandoned by the Clinton-Gore Administration. When residents on those islands petitioned Clinton Secretary of State Madeleine Albright to re-establish American sovereignty on them, Albright refused to recognize their “American” status. When the Clinton Administration renounced American claims to the islands, the People’s Republic of China claimed sovereignty of over 300 thousand square miles of the South China Sea—precisely where these massive oil deposits were discovered over 20 years ago. Immediately after this occurred, the People’s Republic of China announced a joint IPO with Exxon/Mobil and Texaco/Amoco. Now, in addition to the Seven Sisters being in bed with Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria and our tepid pseudo-allies in the Gulf States, we now learn that the Seven Sisters are also in bed with our most dedicated enemy (and most recent “trading partner” who dumps trillions of dollars of slave labor goods in America every year and trades the balance of payments for weapons systems which they have promised to use to destroy us in a nuclear firestorm when they are sufficiently armed).
Since a growing number of Americans are beginning to realize that American and European oil cartels own a major interest in the Mideast oil fields, do oil companies—whose foundations control the education curriculum of every university they endow—have a growing need to paint Islam as a religion of peace? You bet your life they do.

Kitties are worth more than Babies
January 9, 2009 – “Take some kittens, some tender little moggies in a box,” said Jamal, a surgeon at the Al Shifa, Gaza’s main hospital, while a nurse actually placed a couple of blood-stained cardboard boxes in front of us. “Seal up the box, then jump on it with all your weight and might, until you feel their little bones crunching, and you hear the last muffled little mew.” I stared at the boxes in astonishment, and the doctor continued: “Try to imagine what would happen after such images were circulated. The righteous outrage of public opinion, the complaints of the animal rights organisations. . . “The doctors went on in this vein, and I was unable to take my eyes off those boxes, sitting at our feet.
“Israel trapped hundreds of civilians inside a school as if in a box, including many children, and then crushed them with all the might of its bombs. What were the world’s reactions? Almost nothing. We would have been better off as animals rather than Palestinians, we would have been more protected.” At this point the doctor leans towards one of the boxes, and takes its lid off in front of me. Inside it are the amputated limbs, legs and arms, some from the knee down, others with the entire femur attached, amputated from the injured at the Al Fakhura United Nations school in Jabalia, which resulted in more than fifty casualties. . .
A little earlier I’d been involved in a conversation with Dr. Abdel, an ophthalmologist, regarding the rumours that the Israeli Army had been showering us with non-conventional weapons, forbidden by the Geneva Convention, such as cluster bombs and white phosphorous. The very same that the Tsahal Army used in the last Lebanese war, as well as the US air force in Falluja, still violating international norms. . . There’s no doubt that using this weapon in Gaza, a strip of land concentrating the highest population rate in the world, is a crime all on its own. . . What he finds inexplicable is the total lack of eyeballs. . . Instead, we see Palestinian corpses coming into the hospitals without eyes at all, as if someone had removed them surgically before handing them over to the coroner. . . Full story: alor.org
Comment: Israeli Zionists are dehumanised pawns of the ‘hidden hand’ used to create implacable hatred essential to their plans for the “hot stage” of a brief World War III.
The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine
February 7, 2007 – Ilan Pappe is an Israeli historian and senior lecturer at Haifa University. He’s also Academic Director of the Research Institute for Peace at Givat Haviva and Chair of the Emil Touma Institute for Palestinian Studies. Pappe is an expert on Israel and Zionism and the Palestinians’ Right of Return to their homeland, is considered “an honourable academic with integrity and conscience,” and is a member of the Advisory Board of the Council for Palestinian Restitution and Repatriation (CPRR), an organization declaring that “every Palestinian has a legitimate, individual right to return to his or her original home and to absolute restitution of his or her property”. . .
In his preface, Pappe writes about the “Red House” in Tel-Aviv that became headquarters for the Hagana, the dominant Zionist underground paramilitary militia during the British Mandate period in Palestine between 1920 and 1948 when the Jewish state came into being. He details how David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister, met with leading Zionists and young Jewish military officers on March 10, 1948 to finalize plans to ethnically cleanse Palestine that unfolded in the months that followed including “large-scale (deadly serious) intimidation; laying siege to and bombarding villages and population centres; setting fire to homes, properties and goods; expulsion; demolition; and finally, planting mines among the rubble to prevent any of the expelled inhabitants from returning.”
The final master plan was called Plan D (Dalet in Hebrew) following plans A, B, and C preceding it. It was to be a war without mercy complying with what Ben-Gurion said in June, 1938 to the Jewish Agency Executive and never wavering from later: “I am for compulsory transfer; I do not see anything immoral in it.” Plan D became the way to do it. It included forcible expulsion of hundreds of thousands of unwanted Palestinian Arabs in urban and rural areas accompanied by an unknown number of others mass-slaughtered to get it done. The goal was simple and straightforward—to create an exclusive Jewish state without an Arab presence by any means including mass-murder.
Once begun, the whole ugly business took six months to complete. It expelled about 800,000 people, killed many others, and destroyed 531 villages and 11 urban neighborhoods in cities like Tel-Aviv, Haifa and Jerusalem. The action was a clear case of ethnic cleansing that international law today calls a crime against humanity for which convicted Nazis at Nuremberg were hanged. So far Israelis have always remained immune from international law even though names of guilty leaders and those charged with implementing their orders are known as well as the crimes they committed.
They included cold-blooded mass-murder; destruction of homes, villages and crops; rapes; other atrocities; and massacres of defenseless people given no quarter including women and children. The crimes were suppressed and expunged from official accounts as Israeli historiography cooked up the myth that Palestinians left voluntarily fearing harm from invading Arab armies. It was a lie covering up Israeli crimes Palestinians call the Nakba—the catastrophe or disaster that’s still a cold, harsh festering unresolved injustice.
. . . in 1949 were labor camps where thousands of Palestinian prisoners were held under military rule for forced labor for all tasks that could strengthen the economy or aid the military. Conditions in them were deplorable and included working in quarries carrying heavy stones, living on one potato in the morning and half a dried fish at noon. Anyone complaining was beaten severely, and others were singled out for summary execution if they were considered a threat. Life outside prison and labor camps wasn’t much better. Red Cross representatives sent their Geneva headquarters reports of collective human rights abuses including finding piles of dead bodies. . . Their places of worship were profaned and schools vandalized. Those still with homes were robbed with impunity by looters in broad daylight. They took everything they wanted—furniture, clothing, anything useful for Jewish immigrants entering the new Jewish state. . . Palestinians, fed up with Fatah betrayal, democratically elected a Hamas government in January, 2006 foiling Israeli efforts to assure their complicit allies would again prevail. When they didn’t, Israel denounced the results, never accepted Hamas as a peace partner, refused to negotiate with them in good faith, and acted ever since in bad faith to destroy Hamas and punish the Palestinian people for their “wrong” choice. That’s how things always work under rules of imperial management practiced by the US and its Israeli partner complicit in their collective attempt to destroy a democratically elected government misportraying them as “terrorists” to get the West to go along and the public to believe it. . .
Now there’s the further threat of one Palestinian faction facing off against the other. On one side is the besieged Hamas-led government already in tatters from months of harsh sanctions and daily Israeli assaults. On the other are corrupted Fatah forces loyal to PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas acting as a quisling proxy comprador enforcer for Israeli and US imperial interests for everything he stands to gain selling out his people for crumbs handed him and his cronies. They’re being armed to the teeth to do it, and George Bush announced he’s helping further by transferring $86 million to Abbas while starving Hamas and most Palestinians. . .

Comment: Moses spoke the truth (Genesis 3:15). So did Louis Marshall when he stated, “Zionism is but an incident of a far reaching plan, It is merely a convenient peg on which to hang a powerful weapon”.
“Israel is engulfed once more with righteous fury that translates into destructive policies in the Gaza Strip. This appalling self-justification for the inhumanity and impunity is not just annoying, it is a subject worth dwelling on, if one wants to understand the international immunity for the massacre that rages on in Gaza. It is based first and foremost on sheer lies transmitted with a newspeak reminiscent of darker days in 1930s Europe. Every half an hour a news bulletin on the radio and television describes the victims of Gaza as terrorists and Israel’s massive killings of them as an act of self-defence (Ilan Pappe, January 3, 2009).
The Mystery of Divine Government
Genesis 2:16-17, “The Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat: but of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die“.
John 6:63, “It is the Spirit that makes alive, the flesh is of no avail; the Words I have spoken to you are Spirit [in a form you can receive by faith], and they are eternal Life.” But the man forsook the obedience of faith, thus:
Galatians 3:22, “The Scripture has all men imprisoned under sin, so that the promise might be given to them that believe by faith in Jesus Christ“.
The Divine government will be inspired government by agreement of faith, not by Law. “The Law is not made for an honest man but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, for whoremongers, for sodomites, kidnapers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine.” The Divine government is for a justified people living in a just world. We will have a foretaste of Divine government when we exercise the ‘third pull’ in the manifestation of the Sons of God. “And it shall come to pass that before they call I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear” (John 17:21-26; Isaiah 65:24).
Paul was the prophet to whom God revealed the New Testament; everything Paul enjoined is based solidly on the Law of Moses and the Old Testament prophets, magnified and written by revelation in fleshy tables of the heart. Paul challenged his critics, “If anyone ever had reason to hope that he could save himself, it would be I. If others could be saved by what they are, certainly I could: circumcised the eighth day, not a so-called Jew but a blood Israelite of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew born of Hebrews; as to the Law, a Pharisee; as to zeal, persecuting the Church; as to righteousness under the Law, blameless. But all these things that I once thought eminently worthwhile I regard as excrement in order that I may put my trust and hope in Christ” (Philippians 3:4-8).
Anyone who is impersonating elements of the Law—such as sabbath day observance which denies Jesus’ resurrection—is condemned by God (Galatians 4:1-11; Colossians 2:8 – 3:17; Hebrews 4:1-11). The Law was given to Israel alone as a curse for no man can keep the Law and those under the Law are under sentence of death (Leviticus 18:5; Nehemiah 8:29; Galatians 3:10-12). For under the Law no one is just before God, and “the soul that sins shall surely die” (Ezekiel 18:4). Justification is by grace through faith in Adam’s kinsman Redeemer, Jesus Christ.
John 8:34-36, “Everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not continue in the house forever: but the Son remains forever. So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed”.
Israel is God’s servant nation, but throughout the Gentile dispensation individual Israelites have had the opportunity of becoming His Sons. Galatians 4:5, “Jesus came to purchase the freedom of those who were imprisoned as slaves under the Law so that they may be placed and recognized as God’s Sons”.
John 1:11-13, “Jesus came to His own nation, and Israel received Him not. But to those who did receive him and believed on His Name, He granted authority to become children of God, who owe their birth neither to human blood, nor physical urge, but to God”.
But why? Because all men are “born in sin and conceived in iniquity,” so no man can be justified by the works of the Law (Hebrews 10:38-39).
Remember, the Law was given to Israel alone after they had committed the unforgivable sin of despising God’s grace by rejecting the Holy Spirit at Kadesh-Barnea. Instantly the names of those adults were blotted from the Book of Life, and they are lost (Numbers 13-14; Psalm 95:7-11; John 6:49; Jude 5). In face of the sure penalty that befell those who spurned God’s grace, whose posterity have suffered under this curse for nigh 3,500 years, will you also despise grace? “Now that you have found God, (or rather, now that God has found you), how can it be that you want to return to the weak and beggarly elements of useless religion, as slaves once more (Deuteronomy 15:12-17)? You observe days, and months, and festivals, and years. You make me fear I have laboured over you in vain” (Galatians 4:8-11).
You should realize the Law cannot be observed outside Israel. Paul called you “Foolish!” Asking, “Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was so graphically presented as crucified? Let me ask you one question: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by the hearing of faith? Have you gone completely insane? If trying to obey the Law never gave you eternal Life in the first place, do you think that trying to obey it now will bring you to perfection without the Spirit” (Galatians 3:1-3)?
Isaiah 42 speaks of two servants of Jehovah, old Israel who failed Him, and new Israel, Jesus Messiah, through whom “He will magnify the Law and make it honourable”—not the Torah, whose end Messiah became when God “forgave Israel all of their trespasses, canceling the bond that stood against them with its legal demands, and took it out of the way when He nailed it to His cross” (Colossians 2:14; Matthew 5:17-48).
Jesus said it is given to us as His disciples to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven. One such mystery is the sovereignty of Divine government that has imprisoned all men in unbelief and determined Israel’s Spiritual blindness during the Gentile dispensation. Romans 11:25, “Lest you Gentiles become wise according to your own conceit and boastful, I do not want you brethren to be ignorant of the mystery of the hardening and Spiritual blindness that has come over Israel with respect to the Gospel, until the full number of elect Gentiles is baptized into the Kingdom of Heaven”.
The nation of Israel was blinded by the carnal interpretations of their priests and rabbis, and although God deals with Israel as a nation, and all Israel will be born-again in one day, the elect nation is restricted to 144,000 blood Israelites physically descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob because God will be honouring the Covenant He has made with the Patriarchs, not the mixed multitude who have stolen the Name and heritage of Israel for political and material advantage.
Isaiah 59:1-19 explains that it is not that the Lord is impotent and unable to come to the aid of Israel, or that he has not heard their cries, but that sin has separated the nation from God. Their hands are the hands of murderers, their fingers drip with iniquity, their lips speak lies and there is no justice in their mouths so that their inward corruption reveals itself outwardly. He compares the Israelites to poisonous serpents who produce poisonous eggs, and to spiders that draw a poisonous web from their inward corruption. Thus the works of the Israelites are positively ruinous, and deadly.
The Law has not made an unrighteous people righteous, or just in His sight. They can only be justified by grace through faith in Jesus Messiah. The folly of the nation whose Talmudic hubris claims they are their own collective Messiah will soon be manifest when thousands of them perish like dogs paying sin’s price, yet fail to resurrect in order to redeem their kindred (Kethuboth 111a, note 52; Psalm 16:10; Ezekiel 5:2, 12; Zechariah 13:8-9; Revelation 9:15, 18; 16:19).
Speaking in Romans 11:26-27 of the immediate future in this day when the iniquity of the Amorites—cursed since the First Nicea Council—is full once again, and Israel enters the Blessing of Abraham’s promise long held by the Church, Paul quotes from Isaiah 59:20-21: “The Redeemer shall come from Zion to those in Jacob who turn from sin, says the Lord. As for Me, this is My Covenant with them, says the Lord; My Spirit that is upon you, and My Words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your seed, nor out of the mouth of your seed’s seed, from henceforth and for ever, says the Lord,” concerning Israel’s new birth by the spoken Word of their two prophets.
Isaiah 27 also deals with Israel’s redemption in the day of the Lord. It describes the present gathering of worldly powers for the brief “hot stage” of World War III, which will be Ezekiel 38 and 39, at the sounding of the Great or Seventh Trumpet (Isaiah 27:13; Matthew 24:31; I Corinthians 15:52; I Thessalonians 4:16). This will call genuine sons of Israel and Judah to gather to the Land of the Covenant for their redemption—mainly from the countries of Assyria and Egypt, signified by the “fleeing serpent” or swift-flowing Tigris, the “crooked serpent” of the meandering Euphrates, and “the stream of Egypt” or Wadi el-Arish (Isaiah 11:11-16; Ezekiel 34:4, 16). However there are a great many internal enemies within Israel, imposters Isaiah calls “thorns and thistles,” which, like those in church circles that “bear thorns and briars” and are presently being gathered in cults and clans such as the ecumenical and charismatic movements, and World Council of Churches ready to be burned, have no part in God’s Covenant with the Fathers (Matthew 13:40-42; Hebrews 6:8).
The naming of Jacob and Israel here, as in Ezekiel 37, signifies the reunion of all twelve Tribes (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11; 19:23-24; 27:13; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:8; 31:8; Ezekiel 39:27; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:8; Matthew 24:31, etc). We are very close to the hour.
The greatest reproach to an Israelite is to be exiled from the land of the Covenant. Such excommunication is the most severe punishment Jehovah inflicts upon the people of Israel (Deuteronomy 4:25-40; 28:36 63-68; 29:28). With “His rough breath” of judgment He blew Israel and Judah into exile for chastisement and purification (Isaiah 27:8-9). He does not exterminate Israel as He exterminates His enemies.
This “purging of the iniquity of Jacob” will lead to the fulfillment of the sixfold purpose of Gabriel’s visit to Daniel after the midst of Daniel’s Seventieth Week and the birth of the nation in one day—all 144,000 of them (Daniel 9:24; Isaiah 66:8; Romans 11:26-27).
Romans 11:28-32, “As concerning the Gospel, they are enemies for your sakes [that you may receive the grace of God in “the blessing of Abraham” or new birth – Genesis 28:3; Galatians 3:14]: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes. For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance,” or irrevocable (Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8). Clearly, if the Abrahamic Covenant with Abraham’s natural seed is abrogated, it is of no effect to his Spiritual Seed, and Paul’s preaching is without force. As Levi was accounted as paying tithes in Abraham (Hebrews 7:9), and the elect of God are accounted as having paid sin’s price in Christ on Calvary, rising justified in Him (Romans 4:25) and seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus (II Corinthians 5:13-18; Ephesians 2:6), the elect blood Israelites are partakers in the gifts of their fathers. Conversely, the non-Semitic self-styled Jews, who are unrelated to the fathers, have no part in the Covenant. All Jews who are in Adam’s race and elect of God will be in the Church with all other Gentiles. Romans 9:6, “Not as though the Word of God has taken no effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel.” In other Words, only the elect of God can receive the Word of God.
“For as you Gentiles were disobedient to God in times past when the Word was revealed to you through creation (Romans 1:19-21) but have now received mercy because of Israel’s disobedience: now Israel has been disobedient so that through the mercy you are presently enjoying they also may obtain mercy. [Ultimately through the apostasy of the Church].” I suspect many teachers would understand, “Now Israel has been disobedient so that through the mercy you are presently enjoying they also may obtain mercy . . . and apply Romans 11:11: “being provoked to jealousy of your faith through the mercy you have received,” forgetting God deals with Israel as a nation, and only after “the full number of elect Gentiles has been baptized into Christ,” confirmed by the manifestation of the Sixth Seal, Seventh Vial and Seventh Trump calling Daniel’s Seventieth Week of tribulation, will Israel obtain mercy. Israel will be blind until some time beyond that point, and will be born under the revelation of her Seven Trumpet mysteries, not by Brother Branham’s Message of the Seven Seals. “For God has shut up or imprisoned all men under disobedience, that He might have mercy upon all.”
Romans 5:12, “Through Adam’s disobedience [in taking Eve back to himself (Leviticus 21:9) thereby forfeiting his dominion to Satan] sin entered the world, and death through sin; and so death passed on to all men, because all have sinned.” As all are “born in sin and conceived in iniquity,” all men are shut up together under disobedience, for God is no respecter of persons in Adam’s race, whether they be Israelites or Gentiles. And although God shows His mercy to “whomsoever will” in Adam’s race, at least sufficient for salvation, His mercy is generally not accepted because it requires men to bring the five senses of the body—sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch; and the five senses of their mortal spirit—conscience, memory, affection, imagination and reasoning, under submission to the revealed Word of the hour, and by yielding to nature under the dominion of Satan rather than disciplining their senses to a soul united with the Word, men exclude themselves from the Kingdom, and even salvation. God is not an arbitrary judge and has placed each of Adam’s descendants on the basis of free moral agency, to do or to refuse. Being omniscient He knew by foreknowledge before there was a world how each of us would choose and thereby determine our own destiny, and so each of us is predestinated (I Peter 1:2).
Peter, Paul, Jude and Brother Branham called those who have rejected the present Truth, souls imprisoned now. Like Esau, they are spiritually dead while physically alive, having crossed from mercy to judgment with no possibility of repentance because their names are blotted from the Book of Life. There are three groups of people on this earth. First are those who are elect according of God’s foreknowledge. Their lives are written epistles of the Word for their day, known and read by all men, which is the Token of the Life of Christ on display. Their names were written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, which is the genealogy of Jesus Christ for they are born of the spoken Word. As Attributes of the Logos they are eternal Life and can never be removed. These are the saints of the Old Testament, the New Testament Church, and 144,000 Israelite martyrs of the tribulation. These have genuine “eternal security,” being sealed to the day of their physical redemption and glorification by the baptism with the Holy Ghost which is the new birth.
Secondly, various classes of the “saved” whose names remain in the Book of Life, which is the genealogy of Adam, will be granted into eternal Life at the White Throne Judgment by Jesus Christ and the New Testament saints (I Corinthians 6:2). These include the foolish virgin, who are justified and sanctified, but not born-again. It is possible for one to be justified and not sanctified, sanctified without being justified, and both justified and sanctified and ultimately lost. Being foolish these virgin are not born-again either because they were slothful, and having neglected to “search the Scriptures daily, proving all things personally, and holding fast that which is good” received a second-hand religion from Brother Anthony or their pastor. Or perhaps their pastor is a good man who believes the “letter” of the Prophet’s Message without a revelation of what it means, and the “foolish” virgin, “ever learning—to say what the tapes say—are never able to come to the knowledge of the Truth” (II Timothy 3:7).
Others of Adam’s race who will be among the “saved” include live-born children who die before the age of accountability. Still-born or aborted children were never on the Book of Life because in order to be a human one must possess a body, mortal spirit and a soul, and they were never more than a body. Israelites martyred for their testimony of Mosaic faith under the Fifth Seal from Pentecost to the close of the Gentile dispensation will be granted into eternal Life at the White Throne Judgment although they did not believe Jesus was the Messiah (Revelation 6:9-11). Even heathens whose moral principles cause them to prefer martyrdom to accepting the mark of the Beast in their forehead, which is Rome’s trinitarian dogma, or the mark in the hand, which signifies doing the bidding of Roman and her (once) Protestant or US image. Those who have been good and kind to the Bride will also be among the “saved” (Revelation 13:15-18; Matthew 25:31-46).
Thirdly are those of Adam’s race whose names have been removed from the Book of Life. These people are lost together with Cain’s descendants, whose names have never been in the Book of Life since they are not in Adam’s race. These are born lost since Jesus Messiah is the last Adam, He is not the last Cain.
Galatians 3:15-24, “Speaking in terms of human relationships, no one annuls a person’s last will, or adds to it once it has been ratified. Now the promises were made to Abraham and his Seed singular. It does not say, And to seeds, plural; but refers to one, And to your Seed, which is Christ. This is the point: the Law, which came four hundred and thirty years later, cannot invalidate a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to annul the promise. If the inheritance is by the Law, then it is no longer by promise: but God has given it to Abraham through a promise.”
“Why then was the Law given? It was added because of transgressions, [to show sins in their true light], until the Seed should come to whom the promise was made; and the Law was ordained through angels by means of a mediator. Now a mediator does not appertain to one party acting alone, and concerning the unconditional promise, God is one party who stood and acted alone and used no mediator”.
So in delivering the curse of the Law, which is conditional, Moses was a mediator between two parties—God and Israel, but the promise was without a mediator. And in this present holy convocation of the fiftieth day of the antitype of Israel’s Pentecostal feast, Christ’s Bride is without a Mediator and must stand alone on her faith in the promise, and speak the Word in the manifestation of the Sons of God, to put on grace for translation faith.
“Is the Law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not: for if a law had been given which could make alive, righteousness would proceed from it with the same effect as the promise, and then righteousness would be by the Law. But the Scriptures insist we are all sin’s prisoners, and the power to give life was denied the Law so that the promise of escape is given only to those who believe by faith in Jesus Christ.”
The Law is itself righteous, but its function is to expose sin and condemn the guilty to imprisonment unto death with no power of reprieve. The Law can sanctify those who abide in it, but this is by merit of works and has no power to make men just, because justification is a free gift of God by grace through faith alone (Romans 5). Therefore those without faith remain sinners, shut up under the dominion of sin unto death which is the curse brought upon all men who are without Christ, and those trying to obtain righteousness by observing the works of the Law are doing despite to faith.
“But before faith came, we were confined under the Law, kept under constraint until the faith should be revealed, so that the Law served as our schoolmaster to bring us to Christ, in order that we might be justified by faith.” The Law was given only until such time as the Seed should come to whom it was promised. And the objective of “shutting up” all men under sin in consequence of which the Law could not make alive was so that the promise should be given by faith to this Seed as the firstfruit of promise since the promise was only to Jesus Christ and to others through Him as their kinsman Redeemer (I Corinthians 15:20, 23; Colossians 1:18; Galatians 3:16; Hebrews 2:10). So the inheritance is now attainable for sinful men by grace, but only through justification by faith in Jesus Christ.
God is sovereign. His Divine government is administered by grace through faith to Sons who know the mind of the Lord so “that before we call, He will answer; and while we are yet speaking, He will hear”. nl563.htm

Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
World War Three is to be fomented by using the differences the agentur of the Illuminati stir up between Political Zionists and the leaders of the Moslem world. The war is to be directed in such a manner that Islam (the Arab World including Mohammedanism) 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, will be forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically. Can any unbiased and reasoning person deny that the intrigue now going on in the Near, Middle, and Far East is designed to accomplish this devilish purpose?
On day 21 of Israel’s dastardly invasion and massacre in Gaza, 1,150 Palestinians have been killed and 5,150 wounded. With 200 times the population, the United States would have suffered 230,000 dead and 1,030,000 wounded in the three weeks—mostly civilians—half of whom would have been women and children. But like the rest of the Judaeo-Capitalist and Judaeo-Communist world, the US is ruled by ‘the City of London’ and will not lift a finger against the aggression. The power of the City of London was exhibited in the kangaroo court where the guilty judged the innocent; they continue to do so, framing Jews as victims even as they act as the oppressors. “By Way of Deception Thou shalt make War”.
In the 1920s, Henry Ford stated, “The Jewish “National State” of which we have heard so much deceptive talk elsewhere is already firmly established. De jure and de facto the United States of America can claim that title, though many American citizens may even yet be astonished and no doubt indignant to read the statement.” J. William Fulbright, a major opponent of American military intervention and a critic of the Israel Lobby, said, “Israel controls the United States Senate. Around 80 percent are completely in support of Israel; anything Israel wants it gets. Jewish influence in the House of Representatives is even greater” (CBS, Face the Nation, April 15, 1973).
The Muslims are caught in the Vatican mind-trap of Islam as Roman Catholics are pawns imprisoned in a Judaeo-Babylonian mind-trap, while Jews are pawns the Babylonian bankster’s mind-trap of Zionism, and ultimately Judaeo-Communism. The agenda of ‘the City,’ Vatican and Black Nobility is to impersonate Scripture by establishing world dominion from Jerusalem under Rome’s pope as a Messianic figure, unbeknownst to the conspirators, incarnate by Lucifer, with a New World Order in place of the renewed world promised in Scripture. Deluded, apostate professing Christians, Jews and Muslims will sacrifice the lives of their sons to accommodate the hoax.
Brother Branham prophesied, “the world is going insane.” Dr. James David Manning demonstrates how human engineering has hypnotised the world to inaction. In the Manning Report he remonstrates against treacherous Supreme Court Judges, Congressmen, Senators and dignitaries who will assemble like Pavlov’s dogs for the inauguration of a president the nation knows is not a natural-born citizen of the United States, and almost certainly not a citizen at all. No wonder the Goyim are considered ‘human cattle’ by aliens within the gate.
The rate of job creation and GDP growth during George II’s tenure is the lowest of any president of the post-World War II period. Actual unemployment in the US, as estimated by John Williams of Shadow Government Statistics, in their Alternate Unemployment Measure, rose to 17.5% last December up from 16.6% in November. By SGS measures the US is rapidly approaching the 25% unemployment rate usually mentioned as the most important signpost marking the depths of the Great Depression. That high rate of unemployment cut a wide-swath of misery through the American population. The policies of Barak Hussein Obama are calculated to cause the US to declare bankruptcy once again, and sink the global economy. In Australia as in many other nations, legislation has been passed to guarantee deposits in the technically insolvent banks of ‘the City’ ensuring all countries will be smitten by this depression, causing the world to plead for a material saviour.
The ‘hot’ stage of World War III will be precipitated by massive earthquakes at the end of the Gentile dispensation sinking Los Angeles, cleaving the mount of Olives, and demolishing the Dome of the Rock. After World War III has ended, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. This will result in Armageddon and the consummation of life.
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 Trinity of Global Empire
December 22, 2008 – There are three cities (city-states) across this planet that share striking similarities and play a crucial role in the global governmental system we have long been living under. The three city-states (along with the role they serve) is as follows:
City of London (finance)
Washington DC (military)
Vatican City (religion)
The aforementioned city-states listed above are sovereign, corporate entities not connected to the nations they appear to be part of. In other words, the City of London (that is the square mile within Greater London) is not technically part of Greater London or England, just as Vatican City is not part of Rome or Italy. Likewise, Washington DC is not part of the United States that it controls.
These sovereign, corporate entities have their own laws and their own identities. They also have their own flags. . . The fact is that the United States corporation is controlled from the City of London, by the Crown, which is not the British Monarchy as many believe, but rather the private corporation that is the inner ‘City of London’ itself, also commonly known as “The City” or “The Square Mile.” This square mile that makes up the center of Greater London has its own mayor, laws, courts, flag, police force and newspaper. It is the heart of the global financial system. . . Full story: blogspot.com

How Israel brought Gaza to the Brink of Humanitarian Catastrophe
January 7, 2009 – The only way to make sense of Israel’s senseless war in Gaza is through understanding the historical context. Establishing the state of Israel in May 1948 involved a monumental injustice to the Palestinians. British officials bitterly resented American partisanship on behalf of the infant state. On 2 June 1948, Sir John Troutbeck wrote to the foreign secretary, Ernest Bevin, that the Americans were responsible for the creation of a gangster state headed by “an utterly unscrupulous set of leaders.” I used to think that this judgment was too harsh but Israel’s vicious assault on the people of Gaza, and the Bush administration’s complicity in this assault, have reopened the question.
I write as someone who served loyally in the Israeli army in the mid-1960s and who has never questioned the legitimacy of the state of Israel within its pre-1967 borders. What I utterly reject is the Zionist colonial project beyond the Green Line. The Israeli occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in the aftermath of the June 1967 war had very little to do with security and everything to do with territorial expansionism. The aim was to establish Greater Israel through permanent political, economic and military control over the Palestinian territories. And the result has been one of the most prolonged and brutal military occupations of modern times. . .

Israel, Gaza and Iran: Trapping Obama in Imagined Fault Lines
January 13, 2009 – In talking about the assault on Gaza, neo-conservative pundits and Israeli hardliners have relied on a familiar frame. The fighting in Gaza, they say, is a struggle between Israel and so-called “moderate” Arab states (namely, Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia) on the one hand, and Iran, Syria, Hezbollah and Hamas on the other. In reality, Israel is fighting Iran in Gaza, the argument reads.
These imagined Manichean fault lines defy logic and reality. This conflict is the last thing Tehran would have wished for in the last few weeks of the Bush administration. It increases the risk of a US-Iran confrontation now, and reduces the prospects for US-Iran diplomacy once President elect Obama takes over—neither of which is in Iran’s national interest. Rather than benefiting from the instability following the slaughter in Gaza, Iran stands to lose much from the rise in tensions. And so does Obama. . .
European diplomats in contact with representatives of Islamic Jihad and Hamas visiting Iran after fighting between Israelis and Palestinians had broken out reported back that both groups were utterly disappointed with their Iranian hosts whom they accused of making empty promises—Tehran neither provided them with money nor weapons. . . Contrary to the neo-conservative narrative that the fighting benefits Iran, Tehran seems to view the Israeli assault on Gaza as highly problematic for several reasons. First, there are suspicions in Tehran that Israel’s offensive is a trap with the aim of drawing both Hezbollah and Iran into the fighting. With only weeks left till President Elect Obama takes office, any direct conflagration between Iran and Israel would significantly reduce Obama’s ability to deliver on his campaign promise of opening talks with Tehran without preconditions.
Second, increased tensions and polarization in the Middle East undermines Obama’s ability to pursue a new policy towards this region, including a shift in America’s 30-year old policy of isolating Iran. In fact, polarization along the imagined Gaza fault lines—and a misleading equation of Hamas with Tehran—traps the incoming Obama administration in an involuntary continuation of the Bush policies that contributed to the increased instability in the Middle East in the first place. From the vantage point of Israeli hardliners, this may be a welcomed outcome since it will make compromise with Tehran more difficult and pressure on Israel less likely. Hence, Tehran seems poised not to help reduce Obama’s maneuverability. . .
The neo-conservative narrative and its imagined fault lines may temporarily add fuel to the US-Israeli alliance, but it will neither bring stability nor order to the region. Rather, it will push the Middle East further into endless conflict and restrict America’s next president to a mindset and a policy framework that risks making the promise of change a dream unfulfilled.

Comment: “Patriots in EU and US intelligence believe the Gaza operation underway right now might have zero to do with Hamas missiles being fired into Israel—but an IDF WMD false flag operation—that can be attributed to Hamas—followed by a “nuclear winter”—type WMD event on US soil which will then be blamed on Hamas/Iran—setting the stage for a US nuclear attack on Iran—before Bush leaves office—so we are now in a “the time is now—the match is hot”— nuclear 9/11 threat window either before or soon after Barak Hussein Dunham-Davis-Soetoro-Obama takes office”.

Are Cheney & His London Backers pushing Broader War in S/W Asia?
January 10, 2009 – [Palestinians gazing at their reflection in a pool of Palestinian blood. An augury of things that are to be under the City of London, Vatican City, and its US image to the beast in the land of Israel (Isaiah 34; 63:1-6; Ezekiel 38-39; Daniel 7:19-25; Zechariah 14:2; Revelation 13:15-18; 14:20; 19:13-15)]. “Based on a series of recent reports, it is our assessment Vice President Dick Cheney, with backing from [the City of] London, is pressing for broader confrontation in Southwest Asia, that would extend the already ongoing, disastrous Gaza incursion, into a multi-front war, engulfing Lebanon, Syria and Iran. This effort, which has reached a critical threshold in the past 48 hours, is part of the same London-directed global showdown that we see with the recent Ukrainian actions, aimed at creating a major European wide energy and security crisis, that could lead to a new Eurasian war.
“We have received credible reports that Cheney, in league with British and Saudi factions, is attempting to pressure the Israeli government and military into a suicidal extension of the conflict against Hezbollah and Syria. The broader purpose is to give Cheney the opportunity, during the closing hours of the present Administration, to justify the launch of American military actions against Iran, despite powerful opposition from within the Pentagon, the CIA and the State Department. Such actions have been prevented, up until this moment, through a concerted opposition from within those US institutions, as reflected in frequent public statements by Defense Secretary Robert Gates, Joint Chiefs of Staff head Adm. Mike Mullen, and others.
“This effort to create a series of impossible strategic crises for the incoming Obama Administration, at a moment when they hope to concentrate their initial efforts on the onrushing global financial disintegration, and the full-scale collapse of what remains of the US economy, is, by our direct information, a focus of Vice President Cheney’s activities. We are pursuing reports that Cheney has personally intervened, as recently as January 8, to promote an Israeli second-front war against Lebanon. We have credible indications that the same Anglo-Saudi circles of ‘Al Yamamah’ notoriety, are directly engaged in weapons trafficking, aimed at triggering this expansion of the crisis. Specifically, we have evidence that Saudi-supplied weapons have been used, as part of the efforts to implicate Iran, and that Saudi assets may be engaged inside Lebanon in efforts to force a second front. So far, Israel has not fallen into this expanded ‘Sykes-Picot’ trap; however, there is an ongoing London-directed effort, working through Cheney and other assets, to break that opposition, before Barack Obama is inaugurated on Jan. 20th as the 44th President of the United States.

The Mystery of the Kingdom of Heaven
A mystery in Scripture is a previously hidden truth divinely revealed, but which retains a Supernatural element only the elect will recognize and receive by revelation. Hence Jesus spoke openly to the crowd in parables, “because [as Isaiah 6:9-10 prophesied] they look and see nothing; they listen and neither hear nor understand.” Thus His exposition of Scripture was a mystery to the non-elect Galileans as it is to many in the circle of this Message.
In Genesis 28:12-15, “Jacob dreamed there was a ladder set upon the earth, whose top reached into heaven: and that the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. And behold, the Lord stood above it, and said, I am the Lord God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac: the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.”
(This excludes the so-called Jews who are unrelated to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, or their God. The minority of Judeans who returned from Babylon following the Captivity found Benjamin’s inheritance occupied by Edomites so they relocated to new land in “Galilee of the Gentiles,” where Joseph and Mary would make their home “for fear of the [Edomite] Jews” who sought to kill Jesus as His infancy. In the second century BC, John Hyrcanus, high priest and king of Judah, defeated and forcibly assimilated the Edomites: “they were hereafter no other than Jews” (Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, XIII, 9:1). An editor’s footnote on this page quotes the ancient historian, Ammonius, “The Idumeans were . . . 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.” The Jewish Encyclopedia also says, “Edom is in modern Jewry” (1925 edition, Vol. 5, p. 41).
In AD740 Talmudic Jews from Babylon, where they have dwelt centuries longer than they lived in Palestine, converted the infinitely more populous Khazars overnight. Hence the so-called Jews are generally a non-Semitic people—”aliens from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world” (Ephesians 2:12). And “for fear of the Jews” the blood descendants of the twelve Tribes continue to live in Muslim lands that once comprised the Assyrian empire).
“Your offspring shall be as the dust of the earth; you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in you and in your Seed (“as of One, which is Christ” – Galatians 3:16; Genesis 15:18; 17:7) shall all the families of Adam be blessed. (Again the Jews are excluded, whose descent is not from Abraham, Isaac and Israel; and with no historic or Covenant roots in Palestine they cannot “spread abroad” from Israel. Neither can this prophecy apply to Israelites under the Old Covenant which binds them to live in Palestine. The “offspring” is therefore Spiritual Israel, those born a second time by the faith of Abraham’s Royal Seed, Jesus Christ. It is through their worldwide ministry that Abraham has become “the father of an election from all nations in Adam’s race” as his new name implies). See now, I am with you, and will watch over you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you, until I have done everything which I have spoken to you”.
“The Kingdom of heaven” was Matthew’s phrase, Luke and John called it “the Kingdom of God;” it refers to the Messianic Kingdom as it develops from its invisible stage with the new birth of Christ’s Bride to the glory of the Millennium reign, then to full manifestation in the renewed heavens and earth (Revelation 21; 22). It is described in Daniel 2:40-45 (4:26; 7:13-14, 27):
“The fourth [Gentile world] kingdom [or Roman Empire] shall be strong as iron: for as iron breaks everything in pieces and shatters all things, like iron it shall break and crush all peoples (Daniel 7:7-8, 19-25; Revelation 13:7-8; 17:1-3]. The feet and toes you saw—part iron and part clay—signify that later on the kingdom will be divided [into ten kingdoms], and in it elements of the firmness of iron. Just as you saw iron mixed with miry clay, the kingdom will be partly strong, and partly brittle. As you saw the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall intermarry with the seed of men [by inference Cain’s race]: but as iron does not mix with clay they shall not hold together.” (Daniel was prophesying miscegenation foretold by Jesus and called ‘multiculturalism’ today (Matthew 24:37; Genesis 6:1-4), and a revived Holy Roman Empire soon to rule Lucifer’s totalitarian one world government).
“In the days of these [ten] kings (of Revelation 17:12-18) the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed, nor will its sovereignty be left to another people. But it will break all these kingdoms in pieces and bring them to an end, and it shall stand sovereign for ever. Just as you saw a stone cut out of a mountain without human hands, break in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold of the image, the great God has made known to the king what shall take place hereafter. The dream is certain, and the interpretation sure”.
Jesus promised the fulfillment of these prophecies in our generation.
In Matthew 13:3-15 Jesus sat in a boat on the sea of Galilee and addressed a multitude standing along the beach by the parable of a certain Sower scattering His Gospel Seed. Some fell upon the hard, beaten path bordering the unfenced field and religious spirits took away that which was not sown into a heart without understanding. Some fell upon rocky ground with no depth of soil and quickly sprang up with joy, yet when persecution arose it perished as a shallow character cannot endure disapproval of men for ‘politically incorrect’ truth. Some fell upon soil from which the thorns had not been removed, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choked the Word, and it became unfruitful. But some fell into good ground of an elect soul, where it was understood and brought forth according to the full measure of personal faith.
To the natural man whose mind is darkened by sin the mysteries of the Kingdom of heaven are enigmas. This was especially true of Jewish racial suprematism which is reflected in their dogmatically supremacist Judaeo-Roman Catholic church. Then as now it excludes them from the Kingdom of God, as does their rejection of the universality of the Kingdom (Genesis 9:27; Deuteronomy 32:21; Isaiah 11:10; 42:6-7; Malachi 1:11) since with hubris they regard non-Jews as human cattle—animals God made in the form of men to serve Jews (Talmud, Yebamoth 98a; Bereshith, 25a; Kiddushin 66c; Soferim 15, Rule 10).
The Kingdom of heaven is the mystery of Israel’s Queen, the Body of Christ made of both Israelites and Gentiles (Romans 16:25-26; Ephesians 2:1 – 3:6). The non-elect could hear the parables, but because they were not contemplative and Spiritual they would have generated dissent had the revelation been explained in plain speech. Since the Fall, the Kingdom of heaven has been a mystery few care to contemplate. Disinterest or disrespect to the Birthright renders one unworthy of the Kingdom like those who are unwilling to confront personal sin or kept from repentance by pride, procrastination or self-delusion, the Lord strikes them deaf and blind (I Thessalonians 2:8-12). And as a wealthy man easily grows his riches, so those poor in faith or material wealth readily lose what little they have.
This wretched condition of blindness to Spiritual poverty, although partially fulfilled in the apostasy and dissolution of Israel and the apostasy and Captivity of Judea, was completely fulfilled when the Hebrews rejected the Gospel and crucified their Messiah, and will soon be completely fulfilled among the non-elect Gentiles (Romans 11:32; Revelation 3:17-20). Having deliberately shut their ears and closed their eyes to the mystery, the non-elect Israelites and Gentiles have imprisoned their souls in unbelief and judicially excluded themselves from the Kingdom of God (II Timothy 4:3-4).
In the presence of Peter, Andrew and Phillip, “Jesus said to Nathaniel, Truly, I assure you, Hereafter you will see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.” Jesus was prophesying the uninterrupted communication between heaven and earth through Him during His forthcoming public ministry as Son of man in vindication of His Messianic dignity (John 1:51).
As at His baptism in the Jordan, the open heaven signifies an open vision or direct communication from God in grace and mercy (II Kings 6:17; Ezekiel 1:1; Matthew 3:16; Acts 7:56; 10:11). The closed heavens represent impending judgment and the absence of God’s “very present help in time of trouble” (Deuteronomy 11:17; I Kings 8:35; Isaiah 64:1; Matthew 23:13; Luke 4:25; Revelation 11:6). The first Israel saw heaven opened, but only in a dream, and the Lord stood above the ladder. Centuries later Isaiah implored, “Oh, that You would burst forth from the heavens and come down, that the mountains might quake [in humility] at Your Presence” (Isaiah 64:1; 40:3-5; Luke 3:4-6). They have and they will (Isaiah 29:6; Amos 9:13-15; Nahum 1:2-8; Zechariah 14:4-5; 9-10; Revelation 16:19). The second Israel was the Lord from heaven who descended in the Word of Isaiah delivered by Gabriel to the virgin Mary; He overcame in Gethsemane and prevailed with God on Calvary, uniting heaven and earth together in one Man whose seed will inherit the earth (Isaiah 49).
His ability to discern the thoughts and intents of men’s hearts made the elect of God to understand, here is the Messiah, the anointed Word of God. Hebrews 4:12, “For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any 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.” But the doubters and unbelievers were blinded by the second hand religion of unbelief delivered by their rabbis and priests as Isaiah 6:9-10 foretold for the days of Messiah, causing “the mystery of Spiritual blindness to descend upon Israel for 2,000 years, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in” (Romans 11:25).
The last sign Jesus promised we Gentiles before the close of our dispensation was the communal acceptance of sexual deviants and perversions, notably among Gentile Israelis (Revelation 11:8), and a visitation from three messengers before the consummation of life on earth by fire, “as it was in the days of Lot” (Luke 17:28-30; Genesis 18). As two of those created men left the presence of God and His elect, their contemporary counterparts Billy Graham and Oral Roberts went to the non-elect in Sodom. The third Messenger, also a created Man, veiled the Angel of the Covenant who subsequently veiled Himself behind the virgin-born flesh of Jesus Christ. Abraham worshipped and called Him Elohim. He proved He was the Word by discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart. In our day He has veiled Himself behind William Branham, a sinner saved by grace, and vindicated His identity by discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart, revealing Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, and today, and forever, in whom heavens and earth have embraced since Calvary in righteous men and women through new birth.
As in the days of His flesh, the promised sign of Hebrews 4:12 caused God’s elect to recognize His appearing by the same signs and wonders—raising the dead, casting out demons, granting sight to the blind, hearing to deaf and dumb mutes, and casting out demons. We have witnessed the angels of God metaphorically ascending, and descending and ascending, in the intimate communion of the Lord Jesus with Brother Branham who did only what the Father showed Him by vision and spoke only what He heard from the Father (John 5:19, 30-31).
As the Old Testament saints looked for the Lord God to “burst forth from the heavens and come down,” the Church Age saints walked boldly into His Presence by communication through the ladder of faith anchored on the rock of the revelation of Jesus Messiah in the office of Son of God and Mediator for their ignorance of the perfect revelation. However all seven Church Ages are fulfilled: Christ is no longer a Mediator and has “come down from heaven” in the office of Son of Man (Revelation 10:1-4). The revelation of the Seven Seals brought Christ back to earth in W_O_R_D form with ten thousands of His saints and the Bible said that the heavens are empty for the space of a half hour (I Thessalonians 4:14-16; Jude 14; Revelation 8:1). The unwritten Seventh Seal is the spoken Word of Brother Branham’s Message expounding the Old Testament symbols of the previous six written Seals.
The Son of man is present with us in the fullness of His revealed Word to incarnate His Bride with the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him that we might work God’s mighty power which worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead (Ephesians 1:17-20). The Kingdom of heaven consists of God’s Word. It has existed eternally in God’s thinking, perfect and complete in every detail before the Logos was expressed. Now He is waiting for the last of His end-time Bride to recognize and become one with the Word made flesh in Christ that our flesh may be manifest as glorified Word.
Since the Kingdom of heaven consists of Word, we must enter into full union with the Word and have the Token on display in order to make our calling and election sure. The Son of man is here in W_O_R_D form—the fullness, not that which is in PART—to incarnate His end-time Bride and fulfill His prayer in Gethsemane, for until the last member comes into the Body, and our number is complete and under preeminence to speak the Word in the manifestation of the Sons of God, the Church Age saints cannot be raised and glorified (John 17:21-26; Hebrews 11:39-40).
There is now no ladder of mediation between heaven and earth because the Word is on earth in the fullness of the Son of man. The “elect angels” have descended to put on glorified flesh in the first resurrection and the whole creation in heaven and on earth is waiting for you and me to come to maturity like Brother Branham, “the firstfruit of those who are Christ’s at His ‘parousia’ Coming” (I Corinthians 15:23) for direct communion through the perfect interpretation of the Word so that we say the right thing to God. The first resurrection will take place when Christ is able to wave us before God manifesting the ‘third pull’ as a new offering baked with leaven.
Then the Kingdom of heaven will rise in dispensational order from Pentecost Church Age by Church Age, while as His end-time Bride we become a hunted and persecuted little group whose trust and stay is anchored in Christ with His Word manifesting in our life and through our lips in consummate union as Man and wife, to furnish our necessities and endue our soul with faith for translation grace. Then some Laodicean saints whom we will recognize will appear and supercharge our faith to change in the atoms, so to be ever with the Lord and our Brothers and Sisters manifest as the Kingdom of heaven for reunion at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the sky. nl562.htm

Servants of Time, or Masters of Eternity?
January 9, 2009Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are pleased you could join us in fellowship around God’s unchanging Word.
Government institutions worldwide have been subverted by politicians and petty-bureaucrats wilfully or ignorantly obeying dictates of the ‘City of London’ as seen in their support for its criminal colony Israel and its lust for Semitic blood, notably the lives of its Hebrew and Arab ‘traditional owners,’ and in their determination to destroy the racial purity of the rest of the world, most conspicuously in the developed nations, by miscegenation which was the ‘original sin’.
“Marxism also had a goal, and it, too, has a constructive activity even if it is only to erect a despotism of international world Jewish finance” (Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 453).
“Australia must realise that they will become part of a single world government and Australians must come to terms with the fact that they will lose their sovereignty” (Fabian-Communist Jew, Prime Minister of Australia Robert Lee Hawke, Readers Digest August/September 2006).
The world is in the hands of shrewd and dirty fighters who have knowingly or ignorantly sold their soul to the Devil and for whom, neither integrity nor truth is an issue. Lucifer’s lynch men and women have instituted laws inimical to the nations, races, cultures and religions they notionally represent. Cross their path and you will find your life turned upside down and ruined financially by the necessity of defending yourself against aliens under legislation in which “truth is no defense”.
“Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle! Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves” (Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, 1977-1983).
“By Way of Deception Thou shalt make War,” is an apt motto for Mossad whose Prime Ministers Shamir and Rabin funded Hamas. The current war crime of the anti-Semitic Zionists, supported by simple colonials of the City of London—Americans, British, Australians, Canadians, etc., occupied Germany, Japan, Iraq, Communist and formerly Communist dependencies, has resulted in 767 Palestinians killed (including 219 children and 80 women) and 3,150 wounded (half of them are children and women) in just thirteen days. Gaza’s 1.5 million motherless broke mainly unemployed occupy an area of about 140 sq. miles in comparison with Sydney’s 4 millions who occupy at least 700 sq. miles. Were Sydney subjected to a similar Israeli blockade and massacre it would suffer 1,946 deaths and 19,690 wounded. With 200 times the population, the United States would suffer 153,400 dead and 1,477,800 wounded in eleven days of massacre.
The destructive work of the Marxists and the poison of enemy propaganda has deprived the people of any sense. They have to be absolutely insane to imagine themselves “God’s chosen people,” when according to Malachi 1:4 they are “the people with whom the Lord has indignation forever.”
Acts 4:25-28, “The Lord God spoke by the mouth of His servant David, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? The kings of the earth unite to fight against Him, and the rulers gather together against the Lord, and against His Messiah, for truly they have gathered together in this city against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You have anointed—Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, all doing what Your hand and Your purpose preordained to take place”.
Let them rage, this world is not our home: “our wrestling is not against flesh and blood opponents, but against the rulers, authorities and cosmic powers of this present darkness, the spiritual forces of evil in heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12). Since redemption and Christ’s Mediation were fulfilled at the opening of the Seven Seals and the number of elect is finite, grace is about to end, and the Lord will return to Israel while His wrath pours out upon the Christ-rejecting Gentiles.
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 List for Map Centered at 44°N, 110°W
January 5, 2009 – “I am informing all State officials around Yellowstone National Park for a potential State of Emergency. In the last week over 252 earthquakes have been observed by the USGS. All of the pre warning signs for poisonous gasses to escape from underneath the parks lakes are present. – I want everyone to leave Yellowstone National Park for 100 miles around the volcano caldera because of the danger in poisonous gasses that can escape from the hundreds of recent earthquakes. These poisonous gasses that can escape from underneath the lake present even more of a potential problem because of the super volcano.” Code – Yellow.

Barack Obama: “America’s First another Jewish President”
December 26, 2008 – According to a nationally prominent Zionist spokesperson, former Congressman, Federal Judge, White House Counsel to President Bill Clinton and early backer of Obama, Abner Mikvner, “Barack Obama is the first Jewish President.” Mikvner’s affirmation reflects both Obama’s one-sided and longstanding commitment to the State of Israel and loyalty to the Zionist Power Configuration (ZPC) in the United States, as well as the long-term and successful effort of a network of financially and politically powerful Jewish Zionists to ’embed’ Obama to their ‘Israel First’ political apparatus.
What is striking about the latter is the demeaning and arrogant claims made by some leading Jewish Zionist about their ‘central roles’ in the making of Obama’s professional and political careers—in effect denying the President-Elect any credit for his own academic or professional success. (Historically this has been mirrored in the continuous claims of some American Jews to have fought and won the battle of Civil Rights in the 60’s on behalf of African Americans— essentially denying black Americans any independent political role in their own struggle).
Even their personal flattery about his ‘wisdom,’ ‘brilliance’ and ‘intellectual acuity’ is always linked with his unconditional support of the State of Israel. One can envision how quickly his Zionist colleagues would replace their plaudits with crude insults regarding his intelligence if he suggested Israel end its starvation blockade of Gaza. . . Needless to say the Zionists know their man, as they confidently proclaim, he is a cautious and prudent politician, who measures power before he speaks, especially as he has filled the White House, economic councils and security apparatus with Zionist zealots. . .

Media Complicit in creating Economic Crisis
January 3, 2009 – Seventy-seven percent of Americans believe that the US media is making the economic situation worse by projecting fear into people’s minds.
The majority of those surveyed feel that the financial press, by focusing on and embellishing negative news, is damaging consumer confidence and dampening investment, making a difficult situation much worse. The poll was conducted via telephone, December 4 – 7.
The US survey of 1000 adults was conducted by Opinion Research Corporation and is statistically representative of the total US population. The survey question: “Do you think the financial press is making the economic crisis worse by projecting fear into people’s minds?” While the overall response indicated that 77% of Americans answered YES, here are highlights of note:
Household Incomes:
$25k – $35k — 79% answered YES
$35k – $50k — 88% answered YES
$50k – $75k — 76% answered YES
$75k – more — 78% answered YES
Demographics:
85% of young adults (18-24 yrs old) answered YES
77% of males and females alike answered YES
65% of blacks answered YES . . . Full story: newswithviews.com jewwatch.com natvan.com
Gaza and the World: Will Things ever Change?
January 1, 2009 – One has to wonder if Israel kills half of Gaza, will the US still blame Palestinians? The plight of the 1.5 million Palestinians crammed into Gaza grows ever more desperate. People compare the Israeli attack on the imprisoned Palestinian population in Gaza with bandits firing with machine guns into a hen house. People sheltered in their homes and humanitarian agencies warned that food, water and medical supplies were running short. The power plant has shut down and the sanitation system cannot treat the sewage. Rescuers pulled people from the debris and the bodies of victims lay in pools of blood. Israel has targeted especially mosques in order to kill as many Palestinians as possible with one blow. The mosque raid brought the Palestinian death toll to at least 446, with about 2,050 wounded in only one day. The world witnesses the worst sustained bloodshed in decades of Israeli slaughter of Palestinians. Full story: globalfire.tv
Comment: God said He would build Jerusalem “not by might nor by power but by His Spirit.” The slaughter of the historic people of Palestine by non-Semitic, anti-Semitic impersonators of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Israel is not the of God or even g_d.
Obama Citizenship Issue has Merit, AOL Poll Says
December 16, 2008 – America Online is conducting a new poll asking readers whether they believe there is any merit to the controversy surrounding Barack Obama’s citizenship—and most respondents say “yes.”
There are more than 90,000 national votes in the unscientific survey. A full 52 percent of nationwide respondents believe people should be concerned about Obama’s citizenship, 42 percent say the controversy has no merit and 6 percent of voters remain undecided. . .

Israel’s ‘Law of Return’ makes Jews Flight Risk
December 12, 2008 – In a legal argument called ‘astounding and very troublesome,’ a federal prosecutor has argued that Israel’s Law of Return makes American Jews a flight risk and therefore ineligible for bail. The claim, believed to be unprecedented, came in the bank fraud case of Sholom Rubashkin, the former Jewish head of the embattled Iowa kosher slaughterhouse, Agriprocessors, Inc. And the federal judge in the case, Magistrate Jon Stuart Scoles, cited the Law of Return in his Nov. 20 decision denying Rubashkin bail. Full story: thejewishweek.com
Testimony from a Saint
December 15, 2008 – My paternal grandmother is now 105 years old and may be leaving us shortly, but came to stay with my parents when I was still at home.
I witnessed to her of the love of God and that the Great Shepherd was the TRUE WITNESS of JEHOVAH. She then went to live in the States (Los Angeles, California) and soon after started to give “trouble.” Nearly all my family on my father’s side were organizational Jehovah’s Witnesses, so Granny troubled them when she started talking of Jesus Christ, and Salvation through His Blood, and stopped playing “Kingdom Hall Songs” but listened to the Gospel music of Jesus.
She told my Dad that I had “shown her more love and Christ than her family and “church brothers and sisters; and that I was one of Jehovah’s sheep.”
So I’m really thankful to God for that testimony and rejoice to see how the Word—like a hammer—still breaks the rocks in pieces.
Comment: The International Bible Student Movement (like the Mormons, funded by Rothschild’s – Ed) was founded by Charles Taze Russell (1852-1916, Satanist, a pedophile according to his wife, Zionist and 33rd Degree Mason – Ed) with the object chiefly of attracting the lower middle class intelligentsia of Christian communities such as certain clerical workers, teachers, servants and persons not accessible to direct forms of propaganda. In America the movement has had great influence among the Negro element.
In 1879 Russell founded The Watch Tower of which he was the sole editor. (His uncle William founded Yale’s Skull and Bones, while his uncle Samuel was reputed to be the richest Opium dealer in the World – Ed).
The Russellite teaching, drawing its own arbitrary conclusions and proclaiming them as final, professes to prove from Biblical sources that all Christian churches are evil and corrupt, that the time of the Gentiles ended in 1914, and that the Jews must henceforth reign supreme over the world. It also elaborates an occult dogma alleged to be based on biblical precedents. . . the pen of this prolific writer, who predicts that, under the visible rulership of the Ancient Worthies (The Jewish Sanhedrin), those Gentiles who still believe in Christ will acknowledge His reign as an invisible one while submitting as Christians to all the hardships these Jewish lords might choose to put upon them. . . (a la The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion and the fraudulent Noahide laws – Ed).
The publications of The International Bible Students Association are interesting samples of political propaganda and seem well calculated to suppress possible instincts of revolt among such members of the Christian community as might object to the role allotted to them under the Jewish Super State (Edith Starr Miller, Occult Theocracy p. 539-540).
US Auto Sales plunge Whopping 36 Percent in December
Detroit, January 5, 20098 – Huge rebates and zero-percent loans couldn’t overcome economic uncertainty as US auto sales plunged 36 percent in December, capping a dismal year that saw sales free-fall by 2.9 million vehicles from 2007.
The bleak numbers, according to both industry officials and analysts, mean that record high rebates and low-interest financing deals will stick around until at least February. . . Hyundai Motor America, is trying to woo skittish buyers by promising to let them return cars for up to a year if they lose their jobs and can’t make the payments. . . struggling Chrysler LLC . . . sold 53 percent fewer vehicles than last December and 30 percent fewer in 2008 than in 2007. General Motors Corp. sold 2.9 million vehicles last year, the lowest number in 49 years. . . Toyota was down 37 percent and Honda 35 percent, compared with Ford Motor Co.’s 32 percent drop and GM’s 31 percent slide. Nissan Motor Co. sales also dropped 31 percent. . Full story: truthout.org
Servants of Time, or Masters of Eternity?
Billy Graham and Vance Havner (who when asked his opinion about the Hollywood movies based on Biblical themes said, “I’d just as soon hear a gangster lecture on honesty”), have been quoted as saying they think in all their preaching up to 70% of those who are in the evangelical church aren’t really “saved”.
What about those in the circle of this Message? What percentage are born-again, and what percentage of those who are foolish virgin now will retain their salvation by remaining “faithful unto death”?
The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is constituted of an election of “wise virgin” born-again by becoming “written epistles” of the Word for their day; it excludes the “foolish virgin” who believe the same Message and fellowship with the wise in their earthly pilgrimage. The Lord God does not arbitrarily decide who will be elect sons and daughters of Adam: election is determined by His foreknowledge of how we as individuals choose to exercise our free moral agency when we encounter the Absolute of His revealed Word for our day. Because He deals personally with each of us we are called by faith to separate from vanity and ungodliness to the promises of His unchanging Word.
Israel types the Church which is the Spiritual offspring of Abraham’s promised Seed (Isaiah 65:23). This is evident in the dominant qualities of character God developed in Abraham, Isaac, Israel and Joseph in their pilgrimage and in natural Israel’s realization of His promise to Abraham of rest in the Promised Land which foreshadows Christ’s Church in her journey to the Millennium where “we shall build houses and inhabit them; plant vineyards and eat their fruit. We will not build, and another inhabit, nor plant and another eat: for our days shall be as the lifetime of a tree, and God’s elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. We shall neither labour in vain, nor bring forth children for calamity; for we and our offspring [by the Spoken Word] with us are the seed of those blessed of the Lord” (Isaiah 65:21-23).
The Church had its beginnings in God’s promise to Abraham as it is built upon like precious faith in Abraham’s Seed elect by His foreknowledge. And as Abraham waited patiently for his promised natural seed, Isaac, his children of faith waited long for His promised Spiritual Seed, Jesus. Romans 4:13-16, “The promise to Abraham and his descendants, that they should inherit the earth, did not come through the Law, [which was God’s curse upon Israel’s unbelief, Galatians 3:13], but through the righteousness of faith; for if followers of the Law are inheritors, the faith is futile, and the promise is abrogated, for the Law brings wrath: but where there is no law there is no transgression. This is the reason why God’s blessing is dependant upon faith, so that the promise may rest upon grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants—not only to the followers of the Law, but also to those who share the faith of Abraham; who is thus father of us all”.
Christ was revealed in Abraham through unconditional election, and in Isaac, who was forenamed like Jesus his antitype, by justification (Genesis 17:19-21; Isaiah 7:14; 9:6; Matthew 1:21-25). Romans 8:28.30, “God makes all things work together for good for those who love Him and who are called in agreement with His purpose. Because those whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, in order that He might be the Firstborn among many Brothers and Sisters. And whom He predestinated He also called: and those whom He called He also justified: and those whom He justified He also glorified”.
God has already glorified His Church. If you are in Christ today you were glorified in Christ before creation, for there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the lusts of the flesh but in the will of the Spirit: and because you are free from the Law of sin and death you have eternal Life and are already glorified (Romans 8:1-2). You always existed in God’s eternal thinking as the theophany of your glorified appearance, awaiting the first resurrection and translation of Christ’s many-membered Bride wherein all the elect having overcome will be glorified together.
Christ was revealed in the grace of God toward Jacob the supplanter who prized the birthright belonging to his unworthy brother and used every deceitful trick he knew to obtain it by carnal works, but the time came when in order to retain the birthright and his life he had to meet God on His ground, overcome and prevail by faith. And finally by perfection in Joseph, who was a prophet, loved by his father who gave him a coat of many colours signifying the Covenant, but despised by his denominational brothers who conspired against and sold him for twenty shekels, ten shekels less than the price of a slave (Leviticus 27:5; Exodus 21:32). Joseph was a type of Christ who was betrayed and sold by His brethren, and Christ’s Bride who from the day of Pentecost was betrayed by her natural brethren in the world church system (Acts 2:13; Matthew 24:21-29; II Timothy 3:12).
While separated from his brethren Joseph interpreted pharaoh’s dream and by building huge storehouses became saviour of the world in the time of famine. A perfect type of Christ, he married a Gentile bride who bore his two sons before the years of famine. He hid them in his palace before he revealed himself to his brethren as Christ will hide His wife, children of PART-Word and us born of the fullness, before He reveals Himself to the 144,000 elect Israelites. A global famine is descending on the world, “not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the Word of the Lord,” who spoke to Brother Branham a dream, telling him not to go overseas but to stock up food in the storehouse in the form of Spoken Word audio and transcripts ahead of the Spiritual famine (Amos 8:11; Revelation 6:8).
When Joseph’s estranged brethren were in need of food they traveled to Egypt to purchase corn. And when news of the ministry of two Hebrew prophets reaches Israelites living in the Muslim lands of the ancient Assyrian Empire they will return in the first half of Daniel’s Seventieth Week to Israel, the only place in the world that will have Spiritual food.
Genesis 12:1-3, “After the death of Abram’s father Terah, the Lord told him, Leave your own country and your relatives, and your father’s household for a land that I will show you, and I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name famous so that you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and curse those who curse you: and in you shall all families [of Adam’s race] be blessed”.
God called and elected Abraham, a type of the Church, to an unconditional Covenant of blessing, but until he separated from his father and Lot his nephew God withheld the blessing that was to come through Sarah’s womb. And until we as His Church separate from the teachings of our denominational cousins and worldly aspirations and live according to His every Word, He must withhold Covenant blessings predestinated to follow the manifestation of the Sons of God.
After the battle of the kings whereby Abram recovered Lot and the people and property stolen from Sodom and Gomorrah, he paid tithes to Melchisedek, and as he remained childless he asked God’s assurance that an heir born of his seed would possess the Promised Land. The Lord commanded Abram, “Take a three year old heifer, and a three year old she goat, a three year old ram, a turtledove and a pigeon. This he did and cut the animals in halves and laid the halves opposite each other, but the birds he did not divide. And when the birds of prey swooped down upon the carcasses, Abram drove them away,” a type of Christ’s Bride keeping the sacrifice of our end-time revelation clean, casting the demons away from the Covenant. About sunset the Lord caused Abram to sleep, showing that death must come upon all flesh, and told him his descendents would be strangers in a foreign land 400 years, after which they would depart with great wealth and return to Canaan when the wickedness of the Amorites was full and demanded punishment.
Once again the iniquity of the Amorites is just about full and demands punishment; soon the Israelites will return to their Homeland for redemption (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11; 27:13; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:8; 31:8; Ezekiel 39:27; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:8; Matthew 24:31, etc).
“And when the sun had set and dense darkness had come, there appeared a smoking furnace (representing hell) and a flaming torch that passed between the halves of the carcasses. At that time the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying: To your descendants I will give this country from the Wadi-el-Arish to the Euphrates River—the lands of the Serpent’s seed Kenites, Kerizzites, Kadmonites, Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaims, Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites and the Jebusites”.
The descendants of these races are taking their revenge as so-called Israelis against the people of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, and other nations of the once Assyrian Empire.
Abraham, Isaac and Israel were not Jews but pure Semitic Gentile Iraqis like Saddam Hussein. When the Lord changed Abram’s name to Abraham, which means “Father of the Gentiles,” He explained “in your Seed [singular] shall all the nations [of Adam’s race] be blessed” (Genesis 17:4-8; 22:15-18).
Galatians 3:16-18, “Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He said not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your Seed, which is Christ. This is the point: the Law, that came four hundred and thirty years later, cannot invalidate a Covenant that had previously been ratified by God, so as to annul the promise. If the inheritance is by the Law, then it is no longer by promise: but God has given it to Abraham through a promise”.
In Abraham God demonstrated that His love is elective love: no matter what happens, His love is proven truly by the fact His elect are “chosen unto salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief of the truth” (II Thessalonians 2:13). He may commit you to death as He did Paul. He may commit you to suffering as He did Job. That is His prerogative. He is sovereign as to whom He calls and whom He chooses. But it is all with a purpose. If He did not have a purpose, then He would be the author of frustration and not of peace. His purpose is that after we have suffered awhile we would be made perfect, be established, strengthened and settled.
This is demonstrated in Abraham’s natural seed by sexual reproduction which have numbered in the millions, but the Seed to whom the promise pertained was one Man born of a virgin by the Word of Promise. Indeed He was the Word or Logos manifest in flesh. Leviticus 25, Ruth, Isaiah 7:14; Isaiah 9:6-7; 49:10-12; 53:1-12; 63, Malachi 3:1-3, etc., declare Israel’s Messiah will be one (1) Man of the tribe of Judah in the house of David, who, as kinsman Redeemer would surrender His life to redeem all the elect of Adam’s race, and raise it up again within three days (Psalm 16:10). Exodus 12:1-14 and Daniel 9:26 foretold the year, month, day and hour in which Abraham’s Seed would be murdered, and Deuteronomy 16:5-6 foretold the scene of the crime.
The so-called Jews claim to be the seed of Abraham “as of many,” yet this disputes Moses and the prophets of Israel, and as Baruch Levy wrote, their lewd holy book the Babylonian Talmud (Kethuboth 111a, note 52) states, “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. 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” (Baruch Levy, Letter to Karl Marx, ‘La Revue de Paris,’ p. 574, June 1, 1928).
“When the Messianic time is come [back to Israel the second time] the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their hands” in partnership with a revived Judaeo-Roman empire, the “New World Order” or “world republic” cited by Mr. Levy. This is the aim of the planned economic crisis. They will slay the two Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11 and the 144,000 elect Israelites (Genesis 27:39-41; Daniel 9:24, 27; 10-12; Revelation 6:11; 11:7-13; 13-17).
Mr. Levy was an ‘insider’ whose prognosis was prescribed by The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion and portrays the present distress. But Jesus Messiah was privy to their conspiracy two thousand years beforehand (Matthew 4:8-10) and foretold this unforgivable repetition of the ‘original sin.’ Matthew 24:37-39, “As it was in the days of Noah, so will the [‘parousia’] Coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage [as if life would continue uninterrupted despite 120 years in which Noah preached repentance and the way to escape the judgment], until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and they knew not until the Flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the Coming of the Son of man be.”
Jesus based His prophecy on Genesis 6:1-13 wherein Moses identified miscegenation as the sin that so grieved God in the days of Noah that He destroyed all life save in the ark. Miscegenation between Adam’s race and the descendants of Cain is a repetition of the original sin whereby the Devil-incarnate Serpent seduced Eve who bore their hybrid child Cain, who is not in Adam’s race and therefore not in his genealogy, which is the Book of Life, and is without a kinsman Redeemer. Although it is euphemistically renamed ‘multiculturalism,’ the besetting sin today is miscegenation through which Lucifer is gaining “world dominion by the dissolution of other races” into his vicarious son Cain’s race as disclosed by Barak Levy who was privy to Satan’s plans (Matthew 23:33-35; Luke 16:8).
Even Abraham’s natural seed is singular, according to election. Abraham had eight sons—Ishmael, Isaac, Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak and Shuah but the election was in Isaac (Genesis 25:1-2; Galatians 4:22; Hebrews 11:17). In Isaac’s two sons we are confirmed even more strongly in the truth of this doctrine of the Sovereignty of God. Even as He said in Romans 9:13. “Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. . . for the children not being born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of Him that calls.” This love is “Elective Love.” It is His love for His elect. And His love for them is apart from human merit for it says that the purpose of God stands in election which is exactly opposite to works or anything man has in himself. Because “before the children were born” He had already said, “Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated”.
Romans 9:6-8, “It is not as if the Word of God has failed, for by no means do all who descend from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but through Isaac shall your descendants be named after you.” Jacob renamed Israel fathered thirteen sons, but not one of these Israelites was a Jew. Then birthright passed to Joseph, elect of God to preserve the life of Israel, then Judah prevailed above his brethren and of him came the chief ruler through the House of David, so the Royal Seed was spoken by the Angel Gabriel to Mary who received It by faith and bore Baby Jesus nine months later.
Isaac’s son Esau marred his inheritance when he married into Cain’s race, for God had “put enmity” between the children of Adam and vast hoards bred with the descendants of Cain who was never in the Book of Life, and between Spiritual Israel and those of Adam’s race who have blasphemed the Holy Spirit by rejecting the revealed Word of God for dogma. By committing the unforgivable sin these become spiritual Serpent’s seed and are blotted from the Book of Life.
Jude noted, “Certain men have surreptitiously crept into the circle of this Message, who were long ago designated to this condemnation, ungodly men who pervert the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and deny Jesus Christ, our only Master and Lord”.
People enter the circle of this Message with a denominational rabbit’s foot, cult doctrines of Seven Thunders, replacement of souls, the resurrection and return of William Branham, or ‘apostolic succession’ by his younger son. Reprobate ministers absent the Holy Spirit, unwilling or unable to read God’s Bible or the Prophet’s Message invite Talmudic rabbis—non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews—to peddle their unregenerate congregations plans “to crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put Him to an open shame” with blasphemous red heifers and man-made temples (Hebrews 6:6). How late is the hour? The Lord God could not anoint Brother Branham for his Elijah ministry until “Christendom would not endure sound doctrine; but seek to satisfy their desires with teachers who will tickle their ears; and turn from listening to truth, unto fables. . . Such people worm their way into houses and captivate idle women laden with sins and controlled by all sorts of impulses, forever trying to learn and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth” (II Timothy 3:6-7; 4:3-4).
Paul prophesied an apostatising in the circle of the true Church—the Message of the hour before the dispensation change and the great and dreadful Day of God’s wrath—not in denominational circles which have been apostate for ages. Do you see the apostasy in our midst? The day of the Lord is imminent. Unbeknownst to the world until after the first resurrection, Satan will be cast down to earth to incarnate that man of sin, the son of perdition (II Thessalonians 2:3, 7-8). For God ends the Gentile churches in the blindness of unbelief as He ended Israel’s dispensation such that two thousand years later they do not see their Spiritual wretchedness (Romans 11:25, 32; Revelation 3:17-20).
Just as “not all those who descend from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants,” all who confess Christ are not Christians, and all who minister or follow the Message of William Branham are not born of Abraham’s royal Seed. Abraham received circumcision as a seal his faith was received of God. It indicated his separation from the world and in allusion to the original sin, dead to the desires of the flesh and alive to the leading of the Spirit of God (Romans 8:5-9). And the evidence you are sealed in heart and ears is when the Bible become a new Book and all men see the revelation of the Word of the hour from Genesis to Revelation living through you.
God is a Separator. He separated Abraham from his homeland and kindred, separated Jacob from his homeland and kin, separated Joseph was from his brethren and his homeland, and Moses, rejected by his brethren, was separated from his homeland and fled to Midian where, like Christ, he took a Gentile bride. The children of Israel were separated from Egypt in the first Exodus. Jesus was separated from Judea, the Holy Spirit separated Barnabas and Paul to deliver the Gospel in the lands of the Gentiles and separated the Church from Israel in the second exodus. All seven Church Age messengers were separated from the world and the world church system like the saints in every Age. Now the “shout” of I Thessalonians 4:16, which is the “midnight cry” of Matthew 25:6 confirmed by the heavenly Voice of Revelation 18:4 echoing Brother Branham’s Message is calling Christ’s Bride out of the Church in the third exodus.
Oh, the sovereignty of God. Jesus said, “No man can come to Me except the Father who has sent Me draws him: and I will raise him up at the last day” (John 6:44). As God put Abram to sleep when He confirmed His Covenant to show “it is not of he who wills, nor of him that runs, but of God who shows mercy” (Romans 9:16), our coming to the Word was none of our doing but God drawing us by grace through faith. “All the Father gives Me will come to Me; and he who comes to Me I will in not cast out” (John 6:37). “Whosoever eats My flesh, and drinks My blood, has eternal Life [unconditionally]; and I will raise him up at the last day” (John 6:54).
Moses who led the first Exodus was a type of the church organization which failed God, he became so preoccupied with administrative matters he even neglected to circumcise his second son, Eliezer, which was the seal of the Old Covenant. En-route from Midian to Egypt the Lord told Moses he was to demonstrate the two wonders before pharaoh and say, “THUS SAITH THE LORD, Israel is My son, even My firstborn: and I say, Let My son go, that he may serve Me: and if you refuse to let him go, I will slay your firstborn son.” As he discussed this with his wife, the Lord’s anger brought his conscience under deathly conviction and his hot-tempered wife “took a sharp stone, cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his feet,” declaring she had saved her husband’s life by the blood of her son (Exodus 4; Psalm 90).
How like the worldly churches with their fine buildings and great signs and wonders like Jannes and Jambres who withstood Moses but have neglected to apply the Seal of the New Covenant, which is the baptism with the Holy Ghost? Without a Zipporah they have been smitten by the Death angel and have no more ‘eternal security’ that an uncircumcised Egyptian; neither do the foolish virgin in the circle of this Message.
Moses found the Israelites quite settled in Egypt but there was a new dynasty whose pharaoh knew not Joseph, and he caused the children to cry for deliverance. When it comes time for our deliverance after the end of the dispensation there will be a pharaoh who knows not our Joseph on the papal throne incarnate by Satan, and the ‘squeeze’ will cause Christ’s end-time Bride to exercise the ‘third pull’ to generate faith for translation grace.
The Angel of the Covenant followed the children of Israel through the wilderness and later manifest in the flesh of Jesus Christ. After the children of Israel had separated themselves and the army of their taskmasters had perished in the Red Sea and they came to Kadesh- Barnea whence Moses sent twelve men to spy out the Land of Canaan. Numbers 13:25-33, “After forty days they returned from searching out the land, traveling until they arrived at Kadesh in the wilderness of Paran where Moses, Aaron and the entire assembly of people were. Showing them the fruit of the land they gave their report to the whole congregation, and said, We came into the country whither you sent us, and certainly is flowing with milk and honey; and this is its fruit. But the people who live in the land are strong and the cities are walled, and very large. Besides we saw the children of Anak there. The Amalekites live in the land of the Negev: the Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the highlands and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the edge of Jordan.”
“Then Caleb calmed the people in Moses’ presence, and urged, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. But the men who went up with him said, We are not able to go up against these people; for they are stronger than we. And they brought up this discouraging report to the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search, is a land that devours its inhabitants; and all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature. And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come from the giants: and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them”.
Thus far the church of the wilderness had journied by virtue of God’s faithfulness to His promise. And when in 1963, the New Testament Church reached the border of our Promised Land, and the Lord invited them to taste of the fruit of His promise in the restoration of the gifts, the restoration of the apostolic faith, the revelation of the Seven Seals “and that which is to come,” the Methodists, Baptists, and all the others were overcome by the giants of unbelief and would not see Christ’s second or ‘parousia’ Coming. Hereby they rejected and put Christ the Word outside their doors as Israel blasphemed the Holy Spirit by rejecting grace and His Word of Promise. From that point the denominations were apostate and Lord ceased dealing them as He ceased dealing with the Jewish denominations two thousand years before (Revelation 3:17-20; 18:4; Matthew 23:37-39).
The adult Israelites were blotted from the Book of Life and lost. God swore they would never enter the Promised Land, and marched them around the wilderness until they perished. But the Lord had to sustain them in the wilderness forty years, and He provided bread from heaven called manna, and quail, when they murmured that there was no water to drink, the Lord commanded Moses to strike the Rock at Meribah with his rod of judgment and brought forth waters of life (Exodus 17:1-7). Showing Christ must be smitten on Calvary to release the waters of eternal Life, “for without us the Old Testament saints could not be made perfect,” or resurrected in glorified flesh (Hebrews 11:39-40).
Thirty-eight years later at Kadesh, the children of Israel again cried for water and God told Moses “speak to the Rock,” but when “Moses and Aaron had gathered the congregation together he said, Hear now, you rebels; must we fetch you water out of this Rock. And raising his hand Moses smote the Rock twice with his rod: and water came forth abundantly” typing the revelation of the Seven Thunders which are the revelations contained in the Seven Seals (Numbers 20:7-13). Instead of exercising the ‘third pull’ and speaking to the Rock, he struck it twice a second time, showing the insufficiency of PART-Word within the denominations “When that which is perfect has come [through the Revelation of the Seven Seals] and mediation for the PART-Word is done away” (I Corinthians 13:10).
Typing the denominations, Moses took glory to Himself signifying the nominal church will “crucify to itself the Son of God afresh,” thus the necessity for the third exodus today (Hebrews 6:6; Revelation 18:4). Moses’ besetting sin was temper; this outburst prevented him from entering the Promised Land and he died in the land of Moab. The organized church failed God and is done away, and like Moses the Church Age saints will enter glory via the grave; only Christ’s end-time Bride born of the fullness of the Word with the Token on display will change in the atoms. So let us take warning and remain humble with the Token on display. God ordained Joshua, whose name means “Jehovah is salvation,” to lead Israel into their Promised Land after the death of Moses. And following this type, at the close of the Laodicean Church Age we were introduced us to the Angel of the Covenant—Jesus Christ in the office of the Son of Man, King of kings and Judge, to lead us into the eternal land of the Millennium after the death of Brother Branham, who was a Laodicean saint.
Are you a servant of time, or a master of Eternity? Christ’s Church will come into the measure of the stature of fulness of Christ through the unity of the faith as Jesus prayed in John 17:21-26 in order to receive grace to manifest the ‘third pull’ to generate translation faith. nl561.htm
