Updated: The Little Horn, First Century Antichrist
The little horn in the first century is the forefather and kin of the emerging 21st century Antichrist, 666, the "no truth in him" purveyor who seeks to destroy us and all underpinnings of Christian values through his minion's lies. [John 8:42-47]. Understanding the millennia long link between these two, which prophetically are one, is vital to understanding and surviving our current events. With all the fake news and lies and deceit thrown at us daily about the "new world covid/climate change order" by corporate media, government officials and the behind the scenes billionaire plutocrat elites, too many have fallen prey to their lies. We have suffered, and increasingly will continue to suffer the consequences of our ignorance.
Imagine, however, if knowing the truth was vital to saving our lives. With the "covid vax" hoax, it turned out to be exactly that for millions of people worldwide. And for tens of millions of others, believing the lies cost them their lives. The vaxxes continue to take their deadly toll, with upwards of 30 million dead. [German Government Documents Admit There Was No Pandemic, Was A Military Psy-op; Text/Video; also see our Newslink section]. To this end, we need to realize that the lying, the secular induced chaos of late has reached the time of melding with critical Biblical prophetic events concerning us. Being aware of this, what do we do with these falsehoods that have been put forward, diverting us away from the truth of Biblical knowledge of the prophecies that are meant to provide us with vital information in these end-times, to protect us when both our physical and eternal futures are on the line?
You've probably heard it before, but if you really want to determine what you know about a subject, stand up in front of a group of people and explain it to them. Any gaps in your knowledge become apparent very quickly. On the flip side of this, of course, is listening to someone speaking publicly. Does this person really understand what he or she is telling us? How do we know they're not blowing smoke? And while some people are able to speak publicly with authority in their voices, when you listen closely, they talk in vague generalities, lacking wisdom in the details about the prophecies of which they claim to speak. But when we know the specifics of these prophecies, what we may have thought of as myths of yore buried in the pages of the Old Testament, to our astonishment, they jump out of the Biblical record like some rediscovered ancient and mysterious hologram, more prescient and relevant than the six o'clock news. [See the Feature article, Why Do We Believe The Lies?].
As we’ve mentioned many times in our books and articles, we can’t know our place in Biblical prophecy if we don’t know our place in Biblical history. And if we don't know our place in Biblical history, then it's a free-for-all goose chase where one guess is as bad as another especially when we have these evil princes doing all they can to keep us in the dark while they are out to destroy us. [See the Feature article, The Princes Of A Plundered House]. It's important to realize that trying to decipher the New Testament without fully understanding the Old Testament and the interconnected relationship between the two is a fool's errand. The apostle Paul's Hebrews epistle in the New Testament is the prime example of elucidating the transition from the old to the new for us, the House of Israel. [See the Feature articles, The Tale Of Two Covenants].
When it comes to Biblical prophecy, therefore the surest way to tell if someone knows of which they speak, or write, is if they know our place in Biblical history. Of course, you have to be knowledgeable too. Simply put, unless the speaker or writer is theologically savvy enough to know we, Christians, are the House of Israel as Christ our LORD said in both New and Old Testaments [Mat. 15:24, Eze. 34:30], any talks or articles regarding prophecy is 100% guesswork. And guesswork is a ruinous foundation for building up a bulwark of prophetic understanding in order that we may save our lives.
The common Christian misunderstanding, for example, of John 3:16, which is contradicted in 1 Cor. 4:9, is a result of that guesswork. The three words, world, kosmos, angels, aggelos, and men/mankind, anthropos, in descending order of rank, are three different ancient Greek words whose different meanings are not interchangeable or inclusive. Not understanding this is seeing only one side of the theological coin. [See the Feature article, Paul Was An Apostle To The House Of Israel, Not The Gentiles].
But when we know who we are, it is an easy matter to read it straight from the source. No guessing required. This includes learning the clear and simple fact that the House of Israel are the nations of the Biblical kingdom of Israel minus those of the House of Judah, the Jews. [2 Kng. 17:18; also 2 Chr. 10:19]. Rather than Jews being all Israel, the Biblical record shows us they are a small minority of all Israel. In terms of the totality of population descended today from our patriarch Israel, those descended from Judah are estimated to be about 2% or less. [See the Sneakers article, Tail Wagging The Dog?].
I happened to see a video of a well-known megachurch pastor expounding to the people in his congregation about the little horn, the Apocalypse, and the Antichrist, which as noted above have been entwined for two millennia. There must have been a thousand or more people listening in rapt attention. It was soon disappointing because it became apparent, as this pastor kept speaking, that he really didn’t understand the subject himself. He was guessing. He didn't have the conviction of the truth. And then he passed along false conclusions based on his conjectures that are contrary to the Biblical record. But, the presentation was quite professional. And it’s likely these people went home thinking they really had learned something. In fact, they probably were farther away from the truth than when they arrived.
Seeing this, certain prophetic verses in Ezekiel came to mind as our LORD sent the prophet Ezekiel to be a sign to us, the House of Israel, in the last days. [Eze. 3:1; the book of Ezekiel was written to the House of Israel more than 100 years AFTER they were divorced from God in 732 BCE, hence the book of Ezekiel is prophetic, not historical, Jer. 3:8]. Again, keep in mind, the House of Israel is not to be confused with the Jews who are descended from Israel's son Judah, which became the House of Judah. [See Zec. 11:14; for some explanation in this regard, see the Feature article, What Exactly Is The Gospel?].
Our LORD said to Ezekiel for us in these last days, "Son of man [Ezekiel], prophesy against the prophets [Heb. nabiy, those who claim to speak for God] of [the House of] Israel who are now prophesying. Say to those who prophesy out of the imagination of their own hearts: ‘Hear the word of the LORD!' This is what the Sovereign LORD says, 'Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing! Your prophets, O Israel, are like jackals among the ruins. You have not gone up to the breaks in the wall to repair it for the House of Israel so that it will stand firm in the battle on the day of the LORD [the Beast's Babylon the Great, the Apocalypse, see Rev. 16:12-16]. Their visions are false and their divinations a lie. They say, "The LORD declares," when the LORD has not sent them; yet they expect their words to be fulfilled.'" [Eze. 13:2-6]. As Ezekiel also wrote, "Woe to the shepherds of [the House of] Israel that do feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flock?" [Eze. 34:2; see a pertinent Babylonian object lesson for our false prophets today. Jer. 20:1-6; again see the Feature article, The Princes Of A Plundered House].
The flock, however, has an obligation as well when it comes to repairing the breaks in the wall to make it battleworthy. We are admonished to " … try the spirits whether they are of God because many false prophets are gone out into the world." [1 John 4:1]. This goes hand in hand with "Prove [Greek, dokimazō, make sure it's the real deal, not fake] all things; hold fast that which is good" [1 Ths. 5:21], which was the hallmark of the people in Berea, but not the Thessalonians. [Acts 17:10, 11].
The truth is powerful stuff. It's why most people can't deal with it. The lies are accommodating and easier to handle. The only way for us to try the spirits is to have the knowledge of, and the love of the truth, in particular the truth of the word of God. It destroys the lies, which in turn destroys the liars.
And the cornerstone of this knowledge, the truth of the word of God, especially when it comes to understanding prophecy, is each of us knowing that we are of the House of Israel. It's all part of the key storyline from Genesis to Revelation that has disappeared from our awareness. As noted, the House of Israel is not the House of Judah, the Jews, or vice versa. They are two distinct Biblical entities in both testaments. After the death of Solomon, the kingdom of Israel, referring to all 12 sons, was broken asunder. The House of Judah, or Judah, the Jews were one separate entity, and the remainder were the House of Israel, or Israel. They won't be joined as one again until Christ's return. [Eze. 37:22, Heb. 8:8; see the Feature articles, The Tie That Binds and The Good News Colour Revolution].
As this pastor seemed sincere, though "speaking out of his own imagination," we decided to send him the Elephant book trilogy. It was a way to share with him, as a shepherd, knowledge of the Biblical truth apparently unknown by him, that would help try the spirits as it were. We included a cover letter addressing some of the points in his talk with helpful and specific Biblical and verifiable historical references. Great care was taken that the letter was not condescending, but was positive and informative in Godly love that it might help him understand in order to better protect his flock, to "repair the breaks in the wall." The books and cover letter were sent, tracked and received. However, not even a courtesy email acknowledging receipt was forthcoming. More than a year later, this same pastor was blowing smoke about the same subject again, speaking the same vague falsehoods of his imagination as before, leading his megachurch flock away from the truth, rather than repairing the breaks in the wall that would protect them.
While lamentable given the cause of the troubling state of affairs in the world and Christianity [see Gallup Poll], the cover letter comes back to life as the basis of this article. It’s been edited to focus on the subject matter rather than to whom the letter was sent. Our request of you, the reader, is to try the spirits to determine what is written here. Then, make up your own mind about its validity so you can stand ready, now, as the Beast of Babylon is rising, and on the day of our LORD. In other words, make sure we're not blowing smoke. Then, decide what you will do. [See the Sneakers article, Do Not Believe Every Spirit].
Okay, then. Who exactly was this little horn in Daniel? And why is it important today for us to know the truth?
In the video, the pastor said the Antichrist is known, among other names, as the little horn. In this he is correct. The pastor referred to "the little horn" throughout his talk. But, he never told those in attendance who the little horn was, or why knowing his identity is of vital importance for each of us today because he didn't know. Thus, there was no oil for the flock to put in their empty lamps to light their way out of the darkness. [See Mat. 25:1-12]. Again, it's critical that we know who we, and others, are in Biblical history, so we can know who we, and others, are in Biblical prophecy. This is an elementary and practical premise to follow as Sherlock Holmes might be apt to say. So let's see where it leads us.
In Daniel’s prophecy written circa 600 BCE, the little horn in chapter seven, verse eight was Herod the Great, an Edomite,1 who, though not a Jew, or a descendant of our patriarch Israel's son Judah, was made king of Judea [see map of Judea]. He was a little king, or horn, compared to Rome’s Caesars, and was given his office by the Roman Senate after the fall of Rome’s first Triumvirate, which was comprised of Crassus, Pompey, and Julius Caesar. Caesar, the last of the three, was assassinated on the ides of March in 44 BCE, which effectively ended the Roman Republic seven years before Herod was made king of Judea in 37 BCE.2 Julius’s nephew, Augustus, became the first Caesar of the Roman Empire in 27 BCE.
We read in the prophecy in Daniel 7:8, "I considered the horns [rulers of Rome], and behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and behold, in this [little] horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things." Herod the Great became the little horn after the end [plucked up by the roots, meaning it is killed off, dead] of the Roman Republic and the first triumvirate.3 There is a prophetical duality here, too, in that the first three heads of the great image of the beast in Daniel 2, the Babylonian, Persian and Greek empires had been plucked up by the roots as well by this time as Rome was the fourth empire. [See the Sneakers article, Daniel Dreamed About Us].
The reason for knowing why the identity of the little horn is of vital importance is that the last portion of this verse in Daniel 7 is echoed in Rev. 13:5, as Edom re-emerges, "rising out of the sea ... a mouth speaking great things" as the not so little sixth head of the beast, Babylon the Great, 666, the 21st century Antichrist. The Edomite Antichrist ruled in Jerusalem in the first century, and is doing so again in the 21st century, book-ending the Christian age, the last days. Prophetically then, these two are one entity. This is where we are today. [For details, see the Feature article, Revelation 17: Big Brother, The Beast Of Babylon].
Edom/Esau is Israel/Jacob’s brother. [See Gen. 25:22ff]. In Hebrew, Edom means red. He had his name changed from Esau because he sold the birthright for some red stew. [Gen. 25:30-34]. And by the first century BCE, Edom had been incorporated into the House of Judah, the Jews, by the Maccabees. Edom was and remains the wolf in sheep's clothing throughout the Western Christian professing nations. At various times in history, Edomite 'Jews' have been known as Khazars, also as "red Jews" as in the Reds vs. Whites in the 1917 Bolshevik [Marxist] revolution. Even the name of the central banking family, Rothschild, means child of red, i.e., Edom's child. Roth is the German word for red.
Today, those of Edom are referenced as Zionists, or neocons or neoliberals, depending from which side of the political spectrum they are pushing us. However, not all professed Zionists are of Edom. Those of the House of Israel's tribe Dan, are accomplices with Edom to undermine the House of Israel. [Gen. 49:16, 17; also the article, Who Is Dan, And Where Did He Go?]. When it is to their advantage, those of Edom masquerade as Jews, those descended from Judah. This is very apparent with the current Palestinian war. [See Rev. 3:9; Zionists Use Being Jewish To Protect Their True Antichristian Motives]. However, it is important for us to understand that they are descendants of Edom. [See Edom And Judah; also Anti-Judaic Edom]. Israel means God prevails. Our patriarch Israel's name was changed from Jacob. Edom, who sold the birthright to his brother Israel for that red stew, made a prophetic vow, in Genesis 27, to kill his brother Israel in order to regain the birthright inheritance. [See chapter six, The Genesis Birthright, The Blind Man's Elephant for details; also The Final Act Of What Started With The Genesis Birthright].
It didn't happen during the lifetime of the two brothers. It began with Christ in the first century, the beginning of the prophetic last days, the Christian age beginning on that first Pentecost after Christ's resurrection. [Acts 2:17; Isa. 2:2; Micah 4:1]. You see, our LORD, Jesus Christ, our Redeemer [Isa. 44:6], was sent to redeem our birthright inheritance, that we lost due to our ancestor's idolatry, through our Savior's death and resurrection. But in the killing of Christ, Edom snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory a second time. Our eternal birthright inheritance was secured. "For where a testament [an inheritance, Eph. 1:7-14] is, there must be also of necessity the death of the testator." [See Heb. 9:14-17; read the parable about this, Mat. 21:33-39; see the Feature article, And It's Still A Mystery].
The little horn, Herod the Great, was the first incarnation of the Antichrist. The Edomite Herod sought to have the young child Christ killed after talking with the wise men from the east who came to Jerusalem. Edom's vow has provided the motivation for nearly the past two millennia, and almost exclusively unnoticed in name, continues today by Edom, the Lawless One, who lives by the sword [Gen. 27:40]. They are the ones using the West's central banking system [sanctions, etc.] and US military power primarily to do their dirty work in West Asia, the Middle East, as well as in nations around the world, while impoverishing and destroying by all available means, the current use of lawfare for example, the liberty and freedom of the children of the House of Israel of the US, UK and Western Europe through their hyped deceitful manipulations of "the sky is falling" false plagues. James Warburg, whose father was "father" of the private US Federal Reserve bankster system, arrogantly told the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee way back in 1950, "We shall have world government whether or not you like it, by conquest or consent." These are our 21st century globalists. [See the Feature article, Isaiah 63: Big Brother, The Prophetic 21st Century Antichrist].
A current day Edomite will be the last incarnation of the Antichrist, aka Babylon the Great, 666. As the apostle Paul wrote in the first century, "For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work ...." [2 Ths. 2:7]. Evidence of Edom's work is all around us. [Audio: 100 Years Zionist Control, this one is a must. Recommend start at 7:50 mark; also see Carroll Quigley's classic work, Tragedy And Hope].
This is why we need to repair our spiritual walls "for the House of Israel, so that it will stand firm in the battle on the day of the LORD." As these last times events unfold daily, we are unaware because, Biblically, our shepherds don’t know our true heritage. Therefore, they are unable to protect the flock against the Beast and the False Prophet. So they speak lies proclaiming false visions in the name of the Lord [i.e., "the US/Great Britain are not in end-times Bible prophecy," "the Jews are all Israel," "we're gentiles"] exactly as prophesied by Ezekiel.
The identity of the first Edomite Antichrist, the little horn, and the last Edomite Antichrist in the Book of Revelation, 666, and throughout the Biblical record, has remained unchanged for the past 2000 years, and about 4000 years going back to Genesis 25. The Bible is not two books, one for Jews and the other for gentiles as the 5th century false prophet and Roman cleric Jerome with his Latin Vulgate Bible has led Christianity to accept. His lies have broken down our walls of truth. We've been, and are being scammed. And it's killing us. [See the Feature article, Moving Forward].
The Biblical record is one story from Genesis to Revelation with two covenants, one now defunct, written in one book to the same people, the House of Israel, Israel, and the House of Judah, Judah. The key characters in Genesis [Gen. 49] are all present in Revelation [Rev. 7]. This is the Biblical big picture, the central plot, the historical context that most Christian pastors are missing. They've fallen prey to the misunderstanding of John 3:16. [Again, see the Feature article, Paul Was An Apostle To The House Of Israel, Not The Gentiles]. In terms of Biblical prophecy, this is the primary key to understanding. All the various pieces of prophecy fit together throughout the entirety of the Biblical record. None stand in isolation.
The little horn and ten horns prophecies in Daniel match with the prophecies in Genesis and with those in Revelation. As noted, the key characters in Genesis are all there in Revelation. And they were there in the first century too. It's all about flow, continuity of story and characters from the beginning to the end. Not understanding this key fact has led to all sorts of disconnected guesses as to the identity of the little horn, the ten horns and others in prophecy. And as we know, guesses make for ruinous foundations on which to build our house. [Read the companion Feature article, The Tale Of Two Covenants; and the Sneakers article, This Old House].
The physical personage of the Babylon the Great's Antichrist, the Lawless One, is a descendant of Edom according to the prophecies throughout the Biblical record. [See Dan. 7:21; also the Feature article, The War Dispatches]. Christ suffered an ignominious death by crucifixion on our behalf because of our sins, not by the Jews, or those descended from Judah, one of the sons of our patriarch Israel, but by the wolf in sheep's clothing, the anti-Christ Edom, under the aegis of the Herodian king of Judea at the time, Herod Antipas.4 This came about because, as the apostle Peter said to our ancestors on the first day of Christianity, in Jerusalem, "Therefore, let all the House of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified [due to our sins, and subsequent divorce from God], to be both Lord and Messiah." Edom was the effect, we were the cause. The same applies to our current day situation. [Acts 2:36; see the Sneakers article, Nope To Pope].
Unaware of our Biblical roots as the House of Israel, due to the lies we have had dumped on us, we have forsaken our LORD and Redeemer again to foolishly take on the customs of heathens, abandoning our inheritance, our salvation, that Christ, by his blood, redeemed for us. These decrepit walls are not standing firm today, nor will they in the battle on the day of the LORD. We need to ditch the lies, and run for the fortress of the truth of the word of God. [See Heb. 10:28-31; also the Feature articles, Easter, Babylon And The Antichrist, and Our Corrupted Compass]. Prophetically, this period of "poetic justice," what we call the "Apocalypse," is referred to in the Old Testament as the time of Jacob’s, all Israel's, trouble.5 [Jer. 30:4-7].
Please note that in the Old Testament, after the division of the kingdom of Israel upon the death of Solomon, when coming across the name Jacob [Gen. 32:28], it's an inclusive reference to both Judah and Israel. Otherwise, Judah, the House of Judah, and Israel, the House of Israel are referred to separately by name. [1 Kng. 22:10 ].
We are witnessing the initial, and increasing, effects of our Lord's hand upon us in our society today. And while we will not change the course of the prophecies regarding our nations as a whole, we can make changes as individuals by living the love of the truth of the word of God. [See the Feature article, The Risk Of Loving The Truth].
At Christ’s return, Edom, the sixth empire, Babylon the Great, the beast whose deadly wound was healed, will be destroyed [Jer. 30:1-9], but only a remnant of Jacob shall remain too. [See Isa. 10:20-22; Rev. 7:3-8]. The Book of Obadiah details Edom’s final demise. [Read the updated Feature article, Obadiah And The Prophetic Parable Of The Tares]. It all fits with the events in the Book of Revelation. And, it is the reason behind Paul’s quoting the Old Testament referencing Esau/Edom in Romans 9:6-13. And in Malachi 1:2-5, verse 4 is particularly relevant in terms of US foreign policy fails, believing Edom, the Zionists, are Jews and therefore are the chosen people of the Bible. Believing this is about as far away from the Biblical truth as one can get. Yet, entire "Christian" groups, who have been baited with Biblical Judah and switched to the Antichristian Zionist Edom [Rev. 3:9], blindly follow this duplicity with great verve and determination. Truth be told, they are following the very ones who are taking them to the abattoir. [Again, see the Feature article, Isaiah 63: Big Brother, 21st Century Antichrist].
The sixth chapter, The Genesis Birthright in The Blind Man’s Elephant. Chapter five, shows the five empires preceding the sixth empire of Revelation, and is a lead in to chapter six. For the first time in history [See Dan. 12:4], it clearly shows the identity of the fifth empire, and the names of "the ten toes" in Daniel's 2:41, 42 prophecy. And it also shows that the great image [clearly five empires, not four as many scholars believe] of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream lasted to the exact year Daniel’s prophecies said it would, more than 2500 years into his future.
It also shows us that the deadly wound [Rev. 13:3, 12] of Daniel's chapter two prophecy was inflicted about one hundred years ago by the sons of Joseph [Gen. 48], Great Britain [Ephraim] and the US [Manasseh],6 the possessors of Israel's Biblical birthright. The Jews descended from Judah are not, and never have been, the possessors of Israel's birthright, even though most of the world has this perception, perpetuated by Edom for their own purposes. [See 1 Chr. 5:1, 2]. Today, it is Edom, posing in a furtive manner as being Jewish that sits at the shadow state controls in both London and Washington, as well as the capitals of the other nations of Israel, including Judah in Tel Aviv. [See the Sneakers article, Who Inflicted The Beast's Deadly Wound? for details].
In his talk, the pastor mentioned that the state of Israel, the House of Judah, has its nationhood today in the Middle East. Yet, he incorrectly implied, Biblically and prophetically, that the Jews are all Israel, as do other misinformed Christian leaders. This is ironic on two levels. The orthodox Old Testament Jews do not view this nation state of Israel as the true Israel. They see it as a Zionist political entity. This secular Zionism was created by Theodor Herzl in Europe during the last few years of the 19th century. It is not a Biblical entity of Israel. The nation state of Israel is firmly under the political Zionist Edom's control, just as it was in the first century with the Herod's at the time of Christ. [Give The Land Back To The Palestinians]. Those of Judah are waiting for the arrival of the Messiah to establish all Israel to its rightful place. It's also ironic because this same pastor is unaware that he is of the House of Israel.
To believe that the nation state of Israel today comprises the kingdom of Israel, as it was in the Old Testament, is a major flaw in our understanding. It's the soon to be official province of Babylon the Great. These critical, yet common, mistakes result, when we don’t know our Biblical heritage and our place in prophecy, wrongly believing we are gentiles. Thus, in our ignorance, we suffer the effects of the lies and deceit. [Again, see the Feature article, Moving Forward]. This lack of understanding has the House of Israel, the Christian nations of the West, actively supporting our Destroyer, the rise of the Beast, 666, Babylon the Great, with its capital in Jerusalem as we read in Daniel 11. We even celebrate a Babylonian goddess every spring, duped into believing we are celebrating Christ's resurrection. Her name is Ishtar, or the anglicized version, Easter. [Again, see the Feature article, Easter, Babylon And The Antichrist; Christian Zionism: On The Path Of Perdition].
It follows that this pastor also neglected to say that the current day nation-state of Israel is only one of the ten sons of Israel [prophetically, in Daniel and Revelation, the ten horns] today with a secular national identity according to what the patriarch Israel told his twelve sons, including Judah, the Jews, in the last days prophecy of Genesis 49. Sons Simeon and Levi [see Gen. 34:25-29; Gen. 49:5-7] are mixed into the nations of their brothers leaving ten sons of Israel, the prophetic ten horns, with national identities today. It is another reason why the Antichristian globalists are wanting to destroy the nations of the House of Israel.
Please keep in mind, Zionist Edom has been mixed into the House of Judah, though like oil and water, since the first century BCE. It remains so today. [Oil And Water]. Also, Edom is living in the nations of the House of Israel as Isaac said [Gen. 27:39, 40] when handing down the birthright and inheritance to our patrriarch Israel. Hence, the parable of the tares, and the prophecy in Genesis 27 concerning all the sons of Israel and Edom. [See the updated Feature article, Obadiah And The Prophetic Parable Of The Tares].
The prophetic fulfillment of ten nations of Israel having national identities again, after the House of Israel's divorce from God in the eighth century BCE [Jer. 3:8], and the desolation of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 CE, began after the fall of the western Roman Empire to the Goths in 476 CE. “The fourth beast [Rome] shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth … and the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise ….” [Dan. 7:23, 24]. As intended, this was set in motion by Christ’s death and resurrection at the beginning of the last days. Much of what was the western empire of Rome [one of his legs of iron, Dan. 2:33] became the geographical home to the House of Israel, nine of the sons of Israel with national identities today. Judah, the tenth to have nationhood, was born out of the House of Israel's British Palestine. It's all exactly as our patriarch Israel told our forefathers, the sons of Israel, thousands of years ago.
The successor to the fourth beast in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream in Daniel, the Ottoman Empire, and Rome's three predecessors, Babylon, Persia and Greece, did not rule over this western territory. They had dominion over the territory of what was the eastern portion of the Roman Empire, which included the geographical area of the current day nation-state of Israel, including Jerusalem. This reflects the prophetic separation of the Houses of Judah and Israel until we are once again joined together as one nation in the hands of God after the events of the time of Jacob's trouble or the "Apocalypse." [Read Zec. 11:10-14; Eze. 37:16, 17, Heb. 8:8; also see the Feature article, The Final Prophecy: It Is Done].
The Frankish Empire’s Treaty of Verdun in 843 CE opened the way for the establishment of France, Israel’s son Reuben, and the nations of Western Europe including the Netherlands, Germany and Italy. The Norman invasion in 1066 up to the Magna Carta in 1215 led to the establishment of England, one son of Joseph, Ephraim and the British Empire. With Lord Castlereagh's direction, the Congress of Vienna, the defeat of the Corsican Napoleon, and the Treaty of Ghent, ending the war of 1812 with the United States [Manasseh], this marked Britain's place as the world's preeminent empire, fulfilling the prophecy of Gen. 48:19. [See the Feature article, Is The US And Great Britain In End-times Bible Prophecy?]. All these are indigenous Christian nations. The history of "Western civilization" is, in fact, the history of the House of Israel. The other metaphorical and prophetical leg of iron, the eastern leg of the Roman Empire, however, ended in 1453 at Constantinople when the Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II conquered the Byzantine-Roman army on the 29th of May.
The prophetic description in Genesis 49 regarding Judah, the Jews, the nation-state of Israel in the last days, partially says, “Judah is a lion’s whelp ….” This means Judah is a lion’s cub or was born of a lion. After World War I, the British Empire, the patriarch Israel’s grandson Ephraim, through his father Joseph, took possession of a large portion of the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East, the fifth head of the beast in Daniel two, as a result of the British Mandate for Palestine. [Biblically, Joseph, and his son Ephraim, are the kingly line of the House of Israel. See Eze. 37:16; Gen. 48; also the Feature articles, Ten Horns Ten Nations, and Paul Was An Apostle To The House Of Israel, Not The Gentiles]. After World War II, a portion of this British territory, Palestine, thanks to the Balfour Declaration of 1917, became the nation-state of Israel, which is our forefather Israel’s son Judah. The iconic symbol of the British Empire is a lion. [The Lion; Coat of Arms, HRH King Charles, both he, and the modern nation-state of Israel were "born" in 1948].7 Judah’s national identity in these end days was "born of a lion" exactly as our patriarch Israel prophetically told his sons thousands of years ago. And in a sense, today, Great Britain still "suckles" the state of Israel. [The Bilateral Relationship Between Great Britain And Zionist Israel Has Never Been Stronger].
The Jews, the House of Judah, descendants of Israel’s son Judah, are a minority one-twelfth part of all Israel today. Nine other sons of our patriarch Israel currently have national identities like the Jewish nation-state of Israel according to the Biblical record. [Gen. 49]. The pastor boldly declared to his megachurch flock, in no uncertain terms, that the US is not in Bible prophecy, much less end-times prophecy. Despite the fact that he is not alone in this, the US and Great Britain are all over the place in the Biblical record, from Genesis to Revelation. The entire prophetic chapter of Genesis 48 is about them. Yet, in our modern day version of Christianity, Israel, the House of Israel has vanished like some lost ancient civilization rather than being the billion or so people Christ only was sent to in these last days. Hands down, this is the greatest identity theft in the world's history. [See the Feature article, Is The US And Great Britain In End-times Bible Prophecy?].
Ironically, from the Biblical perspective, Great Britain and the US, who are the possessors of the Genesis birthright as sons of Israel through their father Joseph [1 Chr. 5:1, 2], are "more Israel" than is the nation-state of Israel, which primarily is Jewish, or of Judah, but under control of the Edomite Zionists. However, with recent world events, it is very clear that both the US and UK are under the dominion of "live by the sword" Edom too. [Gen. 25:32-34; Gen. 27:35-41; Context Video]. "Because the LORD was very angry with the nations of Israel, he swept them away from his presence [divorced, Jer. 3:8]. And only the people of Judah [the Jews] remained in their land." [2 Kng. 17:18; note: not all the land that comprised ancient Israel belonged to Judah or the Jews, thus any modern day claim to all this land by Zionist Edom, is invalid, on many levels, according to the Biblical record; see Map]. Recall, after the death of Solomon, the kingdom of Israel was split into two entities. The Jews became the House of Judah, one nation, and are separately referenced in the Biblical record as Judah, not Israel. [2 Chr. 25:22, 23]. And Biblically they remain as Judah, not Israel, to this day. Hence Christ being sent only to the lost sheep of the House of Israel in the first century, and not to the House of Judah until his return.
Since the first coming of Christ, however, Judah, the Jews are on the outside, the natural branches [not divorced as was Israel] that were broken off as the apostle Paul explains in Romans 11. The law covenant has been broken. [Zec. 11:10]. It is null and void. Also, Christ broke the brotherhood between Israel and Judah. [Zec. 11:14]. Therefore, according to the Biblical record, the House of Judah, the Jews are not in a covenant relationship with God at this point in time. The new covenant of faith, the Abrahamic covenant is in place. It's not for Judah in this age. However, it is for the House of Israel until Christ's return. Then, both Judah and Israel shall be rejoined as one at the fulfilling of the day of Atonement for all Israel. [Heb. 8:8; Eze. 37:19]. Until then, it is as the apostle Paul said in the first century, "But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock ...." [1 Cor. 1:23; see Rom. 11:8-10, 25, 26; Psa. 69:23; Isa. 29:9-12].
The US and Great Britain are at the forefront of the prophecies being fulfilled today by the Antichrist, Edom, precisely because the birthright passed down from the patriarch Israel resides with Great Britain, Ephraim, and to a lesser extent, the US, Manasseh. [Gen. 48:16-20]. Many of our prophecy articles provide details of this. Zionist Edom, in the personage of the Antichrist, formerly the little horn, will rule over the ten nations of Israel, the ten horns, the Christian nations, including the Jews, Judah, as well as Islam, before being destroyed. [Dan. 7:24; Hos. 5:1-15]. It’s all about the Genesis birthright passed down from Abraham to Isaac to Jacob/Israel and our "dealing treacherously with our LORD." [See Rev. 17:12, 16, Obadiah v. 18; also the Feature article, Why Was Jesus Jewish, But Not Moses?].
We are blind to all this [Jer. 5:21] because nearly all our Christian shepherds refuse to follow Christ when he very plainly said, “I am not sent except to the lost sheep of the House of Israel.” Christ said this to a gentile woman. Every translation of the Mat.15:24 verse, NLT, RSV, NKJV, etc., etc., is unequivocal. And when Christ sent out the apostles, including Paul later, he told them very plainly, "... do not go to the gentiles ...." [Mat. 10:5, 6]. How clear is this!? Yet, we don't know we are the House of Israel. And, "Christian" missionaries do what? They go to the gentiles of the world proclaiming a gospel not of Christ. Paul warned those in the first century church in Galatia about this very thing. "But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed." To all but the very blind, we can see that our nations are cursed due to our ignorance of the truth. [Gal. 1:6, see the Feature articles, What Exactly Is The Gospel?; and Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall].
Christians are the lost sheep of the House of Israel. The gospel delivered by Christ was meant only for those to whom he was sent ... the House of Israel in this age. We need to move past the Antichristian myth that we are a bunch of gentiles. It is a lie that is killing us that was woven into the fabric of early Christianity by false prophets, who have crept in unawares as Jude warned us, and is perpetuated by our blind modern day megachurch prophets to maximum negative effect. We would be wise to remember our Savior is not the author of lies.
But what can we expect when these same pastors promote and devote much time and effort to the celebration of the wise men bringing gifts to the baby Jesus in a manger? Who cares that the Biblical record, the truth of the word of God, in the second chapter of the gospel of Matthew, very clearly states, six times in seven verses, that Christ was a young child [Greek, παιδίον, paidion] living in a house [Greek, oikia] when they showed up? [See the Feature article, You Know You're A Christian When ...]. Indeed, these pastors, who live the "good life," yet have not the love of the truth, preach a gospel not of Christ, starving their flocks of the truth that would repair the walls and save them. [2 Ths. 2:10]. Instead, they bring curses upon the heads of their thousands upon thousands of followers, "prophesying out of their heart's own imagination ... their visions are false and their divinations a lie." Our walls have fallen into ruin. The jackals have free range. And we are being destroyed for our lack of knowledge.
By the fifth century, "Christians" had been transmogrified. No longer were we the House of Israel. But voilà, we had become … gentiles! The House of Israel had disappeared from the ranks of popular Christianity. And the churches spawned during the Protestant Reformation blindly took this lie with them from the Roman church. Christians are not gentiles, at least according to Christ and God the Father who sent him. It only benefits Babylon the Great's Antichrist that we believe and behave as if we are "gentiles," straying far from the love of the truth of the word of God.
The Biblical record defines itself, like a novelist will identify and introduce a character or place the first time they are mentioned in the story. The very first use of the word gentiles in the Roman church cleric Jerome's translation of the New Testament, Matthew four, is "Galilee of the gentiles, the land of Zebulon and Naphtali," where Christ began his ministry. However, Zebulon and Naphtali are two of the sons, two nations of the House of Israel in the last days! [See Gen. 49:13, 21]. Christ fulfilled the prophecy quoted from the Old Testament, Isaiah nine where it is worded Galilee of the nations. The entire context of chapter nine in Isaiah concerns the nations of Israel, not the gentiles of the world. Thus, the New Testament Matthew quote from Isaiah is in reference to ... the nations of Israel, the House of Israel.
The Greek word ethnos, which simply means nations or peoples, is often translated as gentiles too. This has caused all sorts of confusion. The idea that Christians are gentiles made its way into the Bible translations, originating from Jerome's Latin Vulgate, where it perpetuated the "we are the gentiles" myth. When the Biblical record uses the Greek word ethnos, unless context indicates otherwise, it is a reference to the nations of the House of Israel. This is a key point for understanding the Biblical record. The Bible is one book written to the same people. Having lost sight of this big picture truth, we've wandered off the path Christ set before us in the first century. This is the primary reason why the pastor is leading his flock astray by stating the US is not in Bible prophecy. And correctly understood, Paul, a descendant of our patriarch Israel's son Benjamin, and not a Jew of Judah [Rom. 11:1], was the apostle to the ethnos, meaning the nations of the House of Israel, not the gentiles of the world as most, though not all, Bible translations have it. Some correctly translate ethnos as nations. [For a thorough explanation, again see the Feature articles Moving Forward, and Paul Was An Apostle To The House Of Israel, Not The Gentiles; also Rom. 11:13, then 1 Cor. 10:1-4].
Why did Christ begin his ministry at this out of the way place in Galilee? Why not in Jerusalem or even Bethlehem where he was born if the Christmas custom is so important? Every Christian should know the answer. After all, it is a cornerstone of our history, the basis of our faith, which is the conviction of the truth. [Again, see the Feature article, You Know You're A Christian When ...]. The truth of why Christ began his ministry in this particular area of Galilee is because it was the very first place where the Assyrians took captive our ancestors, the House of Israel when divorced by God because of their idolatry, in large part due to our dalliance with green trees. [Jer. 3:6]. And today, we are walking in those same wayward footsteps on the path to even more destructive results. [For our current predicament, see the updated Feature article, Damascus A Heap Of Ruins; also Eze. 36:16-20].
Our ancestors lost their national identities. And we are soon to follow in their footsteps as the prophecies tell us. They lost their claim to the birthright inheritance and were scattered among all the heathen peoples in the Assyrian Empire. They were as any people outside the covenant relationship with God. [See the Feature article, The Tale Of Two Covenants]. They were lost unto our LORD God … until Christ’s first coming. Hence, our ancestors of the House of Israel sat in darkness for more than seven centuries.
Christ, the Seed [Gal. 3:16, Greek, sperma] of Abraham, is our kinsman Redeemer. [Isa. 47:4; Gal. 4:4, 5]. In the flesh, his body had the same DNA link back to our patriarch Israel as we, of the House of Israel, do today. It's another reason for the transhumanist assault, not to mention the long-term effect of the mRNA experimental gene therapy injections, to alter our DNA, notably in men's sperm, altering our seed as given to us by God. Redeem simply means to buy back that which was lost. The only ones lost according to the covenant, as Christ clearly pointed out, were the lost sheep of the House of Israel. And Christ bought us [1 Cor. 6:20], and brought us back into our covenant relationship with God. Is this the gospel, the good news pastors preach to the gentiles of the world that Christ redeemed his kinsmen, the lost sheep of Israel, that he redeemed their promised inheritance? No. Instead, pastors preach Christ came to save the gentiles of the world despite Christ's plain-spoken directions to his apostles, "do not go to the gentiles." [See the Feature article, The Good News Colour Revolution]. Choosing to remain ignorant of our Biblical history, the concept of redemption in ancient Israel, and the gospel preached by our kinsman Redeemer Christ and the apostles, we sit in the same darkness as our ancestors, unwittingly heaping coals of fire upon our collective heads. [See the Feature article, And It's Still A Mystery].
Why, then, did Christ begin his ministry at this place in Galilee? It fulfilled the Old Covenant prophecy of Hosea, chapter one. Hosea was the first of the Assyrian period prophets to Israel. As Paul, a descendant of the House of Israel’s son Benjamin, not Judah, the Jews, told the Christians at Rome, “And it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them [the nations of Israel, 732 BCE, the time of the Assyrian captivity], ‘You are not my people,’ there shall they be called the children of the living God … For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.” [See Acts 2:36-38]. That place was in the land of Galilee of the nations of Israel, not in the land of Judah [see map of Judea/Israel; also 12 nations] or in the land of the gentiles, where Christ began his ministry, sent by our Father only to the lost sheep of the House of Israel, fulfilling Hosea's prophecy. [See Mark 1:14, 15]. Our Christian forefathers in the first century understood this perfectly well. Christians of the House of Israel today are clueless. [For additional details, again see the Feature article, The War Dispatches].
God is not the author of confusion. [James 3:16-18]. Christ knew exactly to whom he was sent. Christianity is confused, however, about John 3:16 because we've rejected the truth of Mat. 15:24 and the writings and prophecies of the Old Testament because of the theologically cancerous idea we are gentiles. In John 3:16, the English word world is not the Greek word anthropos, meaning mankind, nor is it oikoumene, which is the inhabited Earth. It is kosmos, an orderly arrangement or agreement, and in context of the entire Biblical record it is a reference to the unique covenant made with Abraham and his seed Christ, which is embodied in God's plan from Genesis to Revelation and into future ages to come. [See the Feature article, Three Temple Ages Make A Plan]. It's about the promise of eternal life, our inheritance [see Rev. 1:4-6], given to all the children of Israel from before the beginning of time. [1 Cor. 2:7ff, NLT; 2 Tim. 1:9; Tts. 1:2; Rom. 11:26]. That's why Christ is the Redeemer of Israel and not the gentiles of the world. And our current day events on the world's stage are all connected to Esau/Edom seeking to regain the Genesis birthright they sold. [Gen. 27:28, 29; Heb. 12:16, 17].
Keep in mind, the scriptures used by Christ and the first century apostles are what we call the Old Testament. And the Old Testament is in our Christian Bibles for a reason. However, the original order of the books in the Old Testament have been corrupted in our modern day Christian Bibles by Jerome in his Latin Vulgate Bible from the 5th century. [See The Hijacked Elephant, Appendix One, p. 277, Original Order of Books and the Feature article, Moving Forward].
The good news from the first century is that the lost sheep of Abraham’s grandson Israel, Christians, were bought back into a new covenant with God. And it is the faith covenant made with Abraham rather than the law covenant made with the children of all Israel through Moses. "And the scripture [this would be the Old Testament used by the apostle Paul], foreseeing that God would justify the nations [ethnos, of Israel at Christ's first coming] through faith [Rom. 5:1], preached before the gospel to Abraham, saying, 'In you shall each nation [ethnos, of Israel] be blessed.'" [Gal 3:8, 16ff]. Remember, Israel, not the gentiles of the world, was Abraham’s grandson. God is telling Abraham that in him shall each of his grandson’s children by Israel shall be blessed. [See the Sneakers article, Critical Reasoning And Thinking, What CRT Use To Be]. The nations of Israel are still named for Abraham's great-grandsons today. And if we knew our places in Biblical history, it would be a simple task to verify all this.
Yet Christians as a whole, despite copious amounts of evidence, reject this truth. Why? Because we have been deceived by the Antichrist and false prophets, "those who prophesy out of their heart's own imagination." [See Jer. 17:9]. We've lost our love of the truth of the word of God. Instead, we embrace the lies daily in our lives. As a result, we find ourselves in a completely topsy-turvy theological predicament, our spiritual compass directing us to our heritage is corrupt.
Remember, after the death of Solomon, the kingdom of Israel was divided into two separate entities, Judah and Israel. Judah are those of the house of David, the Jews. The remainder of Israel's sons are known as the House of Israel, or Israel in the Biblical record. Judah remained in the old covenant relationship with our LORD. Israel was divorced. Then, with Christ's first coming, the roles were reversed. Israel was redeemed. Judah was broken off from God. Israel accepted the Abrahamic covenant based on faith. Judah did not. It will remain this way until Christ's return as prophecies in both testaments tell us. It's what the kingdom of Israel's annual holy day of Yom Kippur is all about. [Again, see Eze. 37:15-23].
But modern day Christianity is blind to this. In its place, Judah, who rejects Christ during this age, as the apostle Paul noted, is known as Israel. Those of Edom, Zionists, who are neither of Judah or Israel, are known as Jews and/or Israel today. And Israel, to whom Christ only was sent in this age, have become gentiles, so that we believe the House of Israel does not exist in Christian theology, despite Christ's plain words to the contrary. It would be difficult to get this any more mixed up and confusing.
It doesn't look like our understanding will change, either. We do not have the love of the truth that would save us. We've grown too fond of the lies. We prefer the familiar darkness to the unfamiliar light. It's the "Give us Barabbas" syndrome. [See the Sneakers article, We Don't Believe You]. The covenant promise made with Abraham through faith was passed to Isaac and then passed to his son, Israel and his descendants. It was never passed to the "gentiles of the world" as much as the Antichrist would have us believe. The Old Testament scriptures are not books written to the gentiles, but only to the nations of the kingdom of Israel, i.e., Judah and Israel. These were the books used by Christ and the apostles in the first century. As God said to Abraham, "I will establish my covenant between me and you and your seed after you in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God to you and to your seed after you." Abraham’s seed [Greek, sperma] in their generations is the House of Israel in the Christian age. By definition, the gentiles of the world are not. [Gen. 17:7, see the Feature article, We're Abraham's Seed And Heirs, Not Gentiles].
When the Assyrians took Israel, the House of Israel captive after their divorce from God, more than 90 percent of the people that the Abrahamic covenant was intended for had lost their covenant relationship with God. God so loved his plan, which includes the covenant made with Abraham, Isaac and Israel that the lost majority of the kingdom of Israel were redeemed, brought back into their rightful place. This is the good news big picture from the first century upon which the Biblical record is based. It's all about the redemption of us, and our eternal inheritance, the promise of eternal life through the Spirit of God, in the Christian age. [See the Sneaker's article, His Treasured Possession]. This is why Christ said, "I am not sent except to the lost sheep of the House of Israel." No one else needed redeeming. And it fulfilled the gospel, or good news, promise God made to Abraham, recorded in the Book of Genesis, nearly 4000 years ago.
This begs the question. If, theologically speaking, these pastors can't get the milk of Matthew 2 correct, which is set forth in plain language, how can we trust them with the mature meat of the word of God? If someone can't figure out that 1+1 = 2 after being shown, are we going to look to them to teach us college level calculus? But this is exactly what we do when placing our Christian futures in the hands of these 1+1 = 3 pastors, "those who prophesy out of their heart's own imagination." Our LORD has very strong words for them when he says, "Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Sovereign LORD says, Woe to the foolish prophets who follow their own spirit and have seen nothing!" [See the Feature article, You Know You're A Christian When ...].
The first day of Christianity was Pentecost about 2000 years ago when our Father sent the Holy Spirit in Christ’s name. As we read in Acts 2:36ff, the apostle Peter, upon whom Christ built his church, addressed his remarks that day, not in Rome to the gentiles of the world, but in Jerusalem to all the House of Israel. Peter told them to repent, be baptized and receive the Holy Spirit of God. Are we to believe our Father and Peter got this wrong too? It is not coincidence that Pentecost was the summer first fruits harvest high holy day of … the kingdom of Israel, all twelve sons of Israel, and not only Judah, the Jews. [See the Sneakers article, Nope To Pope].
Pentecost is, current tense, significant for the House of Israel who are Christians today. It’s explained in chapter four of The Hijacked Elephant, now a complimentary PDF book at the bottom of our Home page. Also, Christians look forward to the second coming of Christ. No other religions in the world, not even the Jews, and especially not Edomite Zionists, share this desire.8 Unto our day, the House of Judah is blinded to Christ’s first coming by the will of our Father. [Again see Rom. 11:8-10, 25, 26; Psa. 69:23; Isa. 29:9-12].
Why is it then, that the day of Christ’s return establishing the kingdom or government, the power and authority, of God on Earth, heralded by the blowing of seven trumpets according to the account in Revelation, is the spiritual fulfillment of the annual high holy sabbath Day of Trumpets, the day establishing the beginning of the civil or governmental year of ancient kingdom of Israel? For a full explanation, read chapter five in The Hijacked Elephant. Christians are the lost sheep of the House of Israel. Those descended from the House of Judah, and not of Edom, are the Jews of the Biblical record. Together, we are kingdom of Israel. Edom remains odd man out. [See the Feature article, The Relevance Of The Holy Days In The Plan Of God In The Last Days].
This probably comes out of left field for most everyone, but this is only because we’ve all been so far afield from the truth of the teachings of Christ in the first century, and the identity of the little horn as it relates to us, Christians, the House of Israel at the end of the last days.
The Biblical record tells us we are to pay a heavy price for "the break in our wall," by not understanding those things Christ delivered to us, the lost sheep of the House of Israel. [See Hos. 5:5]. When we Christians don’t know who we are, we can’t properly understand the Biblical record and what it means for us. Our pastors have become John Godfrey Saxe's blind men describing the elephant not one of them has seen, [see Elephant Poem], until if and when they make changes in their understanding of the truth of the word of God.
Many pastors repeatedly have said, and continue to say the US and/or Great Britain are not mentioned in Biblical prophecy. This is a major breach in our wall of understanding. As mentioned above, we are up to our eyeballs in the Biblical record's history and prophecy. It’s simply that we are deceived as to our true identity, our rightful inheritance, so even when we read about ourselves in the Biblical record, as Israel or the House of Israel as opposed to Judah, we don’t recognize ourselves. We have spiritual amnesia. The Zionist Antichrist would have it no other way.
The US is, prophetically, the nation of Manasseh, one the two sons of Joseph whom Israel blessed and made firstborn among their brothers in the last days. The entire chapter of Genesis 48 is all about the US, a single "great people or nation," and his brother Ephraim, a "company or multitude of nations," the British Commonwealth in the last days. Other prophecies throughout the Biblical record support this, as do events in the history books of Western civilization. The Edomite Antichrist has set up shop, having gained dominion in these two nations today, attacking those of us in the House of Israel for our "whiteness," which, truth be told, is our birthright inheritance House of Israelness. Again, it all goes back to the Genesis birthright sold by Esau to his brother Jacob. [Once more, see the Feature article, Is The US And Great Britain In End-times Bible Prophecy?].
Imagine a wealthy heir who is stolen away at birth. [2 Pet. 2:1-3]. The parents are told, by their most trusted servant who secretly desires their estate, that their baby died. All the while, the child has been given away, completely unaware of its true identity and parents. The couple, dying childless, leave their estate to whom they believe to be their trusted servant. In the meantime, the heir grows up thinking he's a guy with no inheritance. When the false new heir is revealed, will he oppose it? No, because he believes he is not the rightful heir. He thinks he’s a “gentile.” Is it in the interest of the deceitful servant to make known to the legitimate heir his true identity? No, of course not. It’s the same for the Zionist Antichrist. It all goes back to our inheritance, and our redemption by Christ. Yet, the implication of this in Christianity today is that It's Still A Mystery.
In the centuries following Christ's resurrection, the knowledge of our being heirs of Abraham was increasingly stolen away. By the fifth century, the House of Israel had become "gentiles." The House of Israel, Christians, need to redeem our true identity. We are not some group of “gentiles” who happened to believe in Christ, the very same Christ who said, "I am not sent except to the lost sheep of the House of Israel." Answer this, who is the liar ... Christ or the Antichrist? Yet do Christians believe we are the lost sheep of the House of Israel as Christ in plain and clear language said? Then, who is it we believe? If our answer starts with, "Yes, but ..." then it's time to reconsider who we've been following.
In Isaiah 63, Edom is complaining to God about their loss of the birthright inheritance [they sold it]. "I [Edom] will mention the loving kindnesses of the LORD and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD has bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the House of Israel, which He has bestowed on them according to His mercies, according to the multitude of His loving kindnesses. For He said, 'Surely they [House of Israel] are my people, children who will not lie.' So, He became their Savior." Notice, there are no "gentiles of the world" here. [See Acts 13:22-24; also the Feature article, Why Do We Believe The Lies?].
Edom prophetically continues, "In all their [House of Israel's] affliction, He was afflicted, and the Angel of His Presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He redeemed them; [Christ's first coming] and He bore them and carried them all the days of old. But they [House of Israel] rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit [made available to the House of Israel beginning on that first Christian Pentecost in the first century as noted in Acts 2:36-38]; so He turned Himself against them as an enemy, and He [Christ] fought against them." The fact that Christ is fighting against us as his enemy is hardly the mindset of Christianity today, especially "Christian Zionists." Yet, all we need do is look at the state of affairs in our nations today to see the direction in which we are heading. This is not coincidence. By abandoning our heritage, we have chosen curses and death. It is the House of Israel's last days prophecies being fulfilled, a "coming to the end of our years." [See Eze 22:1-16; for more details, again see the Feature article, The Relevance Of The Holy Days In The Plan Of God In The Last Days].
We continue in our ignorance at great peril. And God is using Edom as his sword against us. This is why the prophecy in Isaiah says of Edom in reference to the birthright and the House of Israel in the last days, "For the day of my [Edom] vengeance is in my heart, and the year of my redemption has come ... their blood have I brought down to the earth." As it was millennia ago, in the first century, it is today. Edom is the effect. We are the cause. This is why secular events and Biblical prophecy are melding together in our land today. [Isa. 63:4-6; see Eze. 35:10-15, God's judgement, Edom wanting to possess Israel and Judah, i.e., the inheritance that they sold; also the Feature articles, Obadiah And The Prophetic Parable Of The Tares, Christ Against Christians; also Rev. 6:12-17, Jer. 10:1ff; see the Feature article, Our Corrupted Compass].
It is the hand of Edom, beginning with the blood of Christ, and the little horn in the first century, and the emerging Babylon the Great that “… [is] granted to him [by Christ] to make war with the saints and to overcome them,” exactly for this reason. [Rev 13:7]. Paul did warn us about preaching a different gospel. We have been cursed. For in this coming day, we will cry out to our LORD, only to be told, “Why do you cry about your affliction? Your sorrow is incurable. Because of the multitude of your iniquities, because your sins have increased, I [our Lord and Savior, the Sovereign LORD Jesus Christ] have done these things to you.” [Jer. 30:12-15]. Let that sink in ... because it ain't Putin. It's us.
Christianity today is so far off the mark that we don't even see the mark. The incessant bombardment of lies continue to pummel us into accepting of our Adversary's lies. We will be surprised when these events happen to us by the hand of Christ [they are becoming more noticeable with each passing day now] because our prophets, prating about an elephant none of them has seen, prophesying according to their own imaginations, telling us we are not in end-times prophecy. And for very obvious reasons, the last thing Edomite Zionists want Christians to know is our true Biblical ancestry as the House of Israel.
This won't be the first time our LORD's hand was set against the House of Israel. "Therefore the LORD was very angry with [the House of] Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only." [2 Kng. 17:18]. When it happens again, [Hos. 5:5, 6], it will be worse, and will include Judah this time because our Lord and Savior is extremely angry with all Israel. "But the LORD is the true God, he is the living God, and an everlasting king: at his anger the Earth shall tremble, and the nations [of all Israel] shall not be able to abide his indignation." [Jer. 10:10; also see Psa. 114:7, Dan. 12:1]. This prophetic warning refers to the quickly approaching time of Jacob’s trouble, aka, what we call the Apocalypse.
In our ignorance, we will ask, "What did we do?" And in our ignorance, our walls fallen into disrepair, we are deceived by the Antichrist into rebellion against Christ and our Father in heaven with severe consequences. The greatest deceit, while we are blindly led astray, is thinking we are on the right track. "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if possible, they shall deceive the very elect." [Mat. 24:24]. When we already are deceived as to our true identity, thinking we are a random collection of gentiles, what can we possibly expect today? After all, this snowball has been rolling downhill for the greater part of 2000 years.
All this is foreign to our current understanding. But the spirit of the Antichrist has been at work since Christ’s first coming in the guise of the little horn. This is why Paul, the apostle to the nations of the House of Israel warned the Christians at Ephesus to put on the whole armor of God for "... we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." [Eph. 6:10-20; 1 Pet. 5:8, Rev. 13:2-4]. Knowing who we are is a vital piece of armor. Lacking this, we are vulnerable to every deceit, lie and gentile custom with its attendant negative consequences for us.
Instead of walking the path Christ set before us 2000 years ago, we are following spiritual detours guided by the false light of the Antichrist. This is the reason why the pastor wrongly told his flock the US is not in Bible prophecy. It is the reason why he doesn't know the identity of the little horn, and its implications for us today. This is why his flock is not being fed, and are blind to the perils drawing closer to us daily, sheep for the fast approaching bloody slaughter. Still, there is a short time for the truth to make us free. [Jonah 3].
Summary:
Like the pastor the letter was sent to, we have choices before us. Do we stay the course for our rendezvous with the events of the Apocalypse, scammed by the liars, eagerly inhaling their smoke? Or do we take the initiative to prove all things as the apostle Paul admonished us, change direction and get a breath of fresh air? Do we, in actual fact, have the love of the truth or of the lies? It's all one or the other. [Luke 11:23]. According to the prophecies, most of the House of Israel will remain lukewarm, too busy with the ways of this world and the works of our hands, comfortably settled in our routines as gullible minions. [Again, see the Sneakers articles, We Don't Believe You, and A Life And Death Pickle Of A Predicament].
And our pastors will continue preaching a "gospel" to "the gentiles of the world," which in itself is a bit of a theological oxymoron [or oxyhoser for you Canadians, eh?] considering that the gospel, or good news, was that the nations of the House of Israel, who were removed from the sight of our LORD seven centuries earlier, were redeemed, bought by the blood of Christ [Col. 1:14], into the new covenant relationship with God. Most, therefore, won't really consider making the changes, casting out the lies and the liars, that could save our lives as our LORD said of us to Ezekiel. Yet, there is no middle ground. Will we hear or will we forebear? [Eze. 3:18; 2:7; see the Feature article, What Exactly Is The Gospel?].
We have an opportunity for living the truth if we choose to take it. Christ gave his life to save us, the House of Israel, not to condemn us. We condemn ourselves by our actions that are contrary to the love of the truth, the word of God. There is no greater love than Christ giving his life for us. [John 15:13]. But God also chastens those whom he loves. [Rev. 3:19]. We must not be fearful, but earnestly seek the truth and never let go of it in our daily lives. Our Father in heaven and our Redeemer call on us to do our part.
And for those who do, "... for you have a little strength, and have kept my word [the truth], and have not denied my name ... Because you have kept my command to persevere [Greek, hypomone, steadfastness, unwavering endurance], I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell on the Earth." [Rev. 3:8, 10, NKJV]. By not seeking the truth, not having the love of the truth, it is impossible to keep our Father's word and the words of our Savior. By our actions, then, we deny his name, condemning ourselves. It's time we make an immediate about face and get on track with the love of the truth of the word of God that will save us. [2 Ths. 2:10].
For those who hear our LORD's word to the House of Israel, we have another promise made to us in the book of Ezekiel. "But if the wicked man turns away from all his transgressions which he has committed, and keeps all my statutes, and does what is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. None of the transgressions which he has committed shall be remembered against him; for the righteousness which he has done, he shall live." [Eze. 18:21, 22].
While not even the worst among us likely think of ourselves as wicked, the standard of this judgement is God's, not ours. We need to turn away from the heathen customs Christianity wrongly has adopted, thinking we are gentiles. We need to have the love of the truth of the word of God. And we need to repair the breaks in the wall for ourselves and for the House of Israel so it will stand firm now, and in the battle on the day of the LORD. The question is, are we willing to make these repairs starting with our own lives?
If not, then we need to be mindful of Isaiah's prophecy concerning us and Edom, Babylon the Great, who makes war with the saints and overcomes them, "For the day of my [Edom's] vengeance is in my heart, and the year of my redemption has come ... their [all Israel's] blood have I brought down to the earth." All because we believe their lies. Therefore, Ezekiel has a warning for us, "Say unto them, As I live, says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn you, turn you from your evil ways; for why will you die, O House of Israel?" [Eze. 33:11].
This brings us back to the conundrum facing mankind since the beginning. Truth versus the lies, which path to follow? "Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, Has God indeed said, You shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden, but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die. Then the serpent said to the woman, You will not surely die." [See the Sneakers article, As It Was In The Beginning, So It Is At The End].
When we follow the lies, in ignorance or by choice, we end up dead. This is what the lying is about in our society today. We are lied to incessantly by Edom and his minions. And it's not because it's for our own good. It's obvious that the US, UK and the other Christian professing nations of the West are being torn apart. We have embraced, and continue to embrace the lies and deceits, both the secular, and the theological. As a result, the prophet Ezekiel sent to the House of Israel tells us, "You have caused your days to draw near, and have come to the end of your years." It is as was noted in the beginning of this article, the lying, the secular induced chaos of late has reached the time of melding with critical Biblical prophetic events concerning us. The hand of our Lord and Savior is upon us as the prophet Jeremiah tell us. " ... because your sins have increased, I have done these things to you."
God tells us the truth. Our Adversary, that old serpent, Satan, is the father of lies and there is no truth in him. If we wish to extricate ourselves from our dire circumstances, then we need to fervently seek the truth of the word of God in our daily lives. We need to walk away from those of the "synagogue of Satan." Let us be bold in the word of God, fearless in casting out the lies and deceits. Let our truthful and straightforward answer be found in converting our spiritual energy and convictions into action, and not with false prophets blowing smoke that hide the breaks in the wall of truth.
Therefore, brethren, let us be wise. Let us not sleep without oil in our lamps. [Mat. 25:3-12].
1 Edom, formerly Esau, was brother to Jacob/Israel. [See Gen. 25:19-26; also Gen. 27:40, 41]. It was this little horn that attempted to kill Christ as a baby. "Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding angry, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired." [Mat. 2:16]. It's the Zionist descendants of this Edomite Herod who are leading the world towards world war and the emergence of Babylon the Great today.
2 Judea was not handed over to Herod by the Romans on the proverbial silver platter. Herod was an accomplished general and mighty man of war. [Edom shall live by the sword, weapons and war, Gen. 27:40, as he does today]. In order to gain Jerusalem, Herod had to take it by force, as Edom has beginning after WW2 with British Mandate Palestine. "When he [Herod] had thus married Mariamne, he came back to Jerusalem with a greater army. Sosius also joined him with a large army, both of horsemen and footmen, which he sent before him through the midland parts, while he marched himself along Phoenicia; and when the whole army was gotten together, which were eleven regiments of footmen, and six thousand horsemen, besides the Syrian auxiliaries, which were no small part of the army, they pitched their camp near to the north wall. Herod's dependence was upon the decree of the senate, by which he was made king; and Sosius relied upon Antony [as in Antony and Cleopatra, who was the general in charge of Rome's Eastern Empire following Julius Caesar's assassination, the end of the first triumvirate], who sent the army that was under him to Herod's assistance." According to the first century historian Josephus, a great slaughter was made in the taking of Jerusalem, " ... nor was there any mercy showed either to infants, or to the aged, or to the weaker sex ...." This was prophesied by Christ speaking of Jerusalem when he said, "For days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment around you, surround you and close you in on every side, and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation.” [Luke 19:43, 44]. The Edomite Zionist's Gaza genocide of today sounds like the first century little horn Herod's Jerusalem slaughter. The Christian nations will fair much worse when the events of the sixth seal of Revelation come to pass. Flavius Josephus, War of the Jews, Book 1, chapter 17, section 9; chapter 18, section 2.
3 Will the prophetic parallel of the emergence of the little horn hold here in the last times? That is, will we see the same sequence, the end of the republics of the House of Israel, US, Great Britain, Germany, France, et al, then see the manifestation of the Antichrist and the establishment of Babylon the Great's empire?
4 After the death of Antipas [39 CE], "Herod also, the brother of the deceased Agrippa [44 CE], who was then possessed of the royal authority over Chalcis, [a region north of Judea] petitioned Claudius Caesar [Emperor 41-54 CE] for authority over the temple, and the money of the sacred treasure, and the choice of high priests, and obtained all that he petitioned for. So that after that time this authority continued among all his [Edomite] descendants till the end of the war. [70 CE, the desolation of Jerusalem]. Accordingly, Herod removed the last high priest [Levites of Israel, Deut. 18], called Cimtheras, and bestowed that dignity on his successor Joseph, son of Cantos." Flavius Josephus, Antiquities of the Jews, Book 20, chapter 1, section 3.
5 Herod the Great, the Edomite king or little horn of Daniel, sought to kill Christ as a young child. But when the wise men from the East eluded Herod, he ordered all the children killed that were two years old and under in Bethlehem and the areas bordering it. Later, under the auspices of the Edomite king Herod Antipas, Christ was crucified. However, Christ’s Matthew 24 prophecy, the desolation of Jerusalem [Dan. 12] under Edomite rule, was fulfilled in 70 CE. During the time of Jacob’s trouble, all the Christian nations and Judah will be under the authority of the sixth head of the beast, Babylon the Great, the Edomite ruler in Jerusalem who will make war with the saints. However, just prior to Christ’s return, Jerusalem will once again be made desolate, this time in one hour. [See Rev. 18; also the Sneakers article, The Context Of Prophecy. Take the time to read Ezekiel, chapters 35 and 36. The prophecies concern Edom, and the Houses of Judah and Israel, the two nations in 35:10. Mt. Seir and Idumea are references to Edom. Eze. 35:14, 15 refer to the time after the return of Christ].
6 Chapters five and six comprise more than 100 pages of The Blind Man's Elephant. Chapter five ties the details described in Daniel 2 with the history books showing exactly who was the fifth head of the beast, including the names of the ten toes in Daniel's prophecy. Knowing that God did indeed raise up this fifth empire and brought it down according to his word, gives credence to the sixth head of the beast mentioned in Revelation. Chapter six of The Blind Man's Elephant details the millennia long story between the House of Judah, the House of Israel and Edom, the little horn, which is re-emerging today as the Lawless One, the Antichrist exactly as the prophecies tell us. We can't understand current events without understanding our history, which is one story from Genesis to Revelation.
7 Though unrelated here, the motto on HRH King Charles' Coat of Arm is Ich Dien. This is German for "I serve." First question, why would the supposed the king of England, the former Prince of Wales's motto be in German rather than English or Welsh or Scottish so soon after WW2, 1948? Although, the current royal family does have German roots. And second question, whom does he serve? As King Charles has been associated with the NWO and Klaus Schwab, head of the World Economic Forum and who happens to be German, our answer may lie in this direction. [Video: King's Portrait].
8 "For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men [Greek, anthropos, man, mankind], specially of those that believe." [1Tim. 4:10]. "And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." [Mat. 16:16]. "To Titus, a true son in our common faith: grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior." [Tit.1:4]. "Thus they shall know that I, the LORD their God, am with them, and they, the House of Israel, are My people,” says the Lord GOD.'" [Eze. 34:30].
The point here is that God the father is the savior of mankind. Monotheistic religions around the world look to God. Only Christianity specifically looks to Christ, the savior of Israel. "For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior ..." [Isa. 43:3]. It's why the Biblical record from Genesis to Revelation is one book written to one people, all Israel, and not the gentiles or mankind of the world. "For if that first covenant had been faultless [made only with all Israel], then no place would have been sought for a second. Because finding fault with them [all Israel], He says: "Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD [Christ], when I will make a new covenant with the House of Israel and with the House of Judah ..." i.e., all Israel. [Heb. 8:8]. The new covenant is not made by our LORD and Savior Christ with mankind, the gentiles of the world. It's one reason why Christ said to his apostles when he sent them forth, "do not go to the gentiles." [Mat. 10:5, 6]. This is the purview of God the Father.
