Why Are The Names Of The Tribes Of Carnal Israel Named On The Elect Saints

In Revelation 7 the elect saints are sealed and the number of them is 144000. They are the tribes of spiritual Israel. Why are the saints in tribes that were of carnal Israel, why are their names used for us?
In Genesis 48:5 Israel adopts Joseph's two sons Ephriam and Manasseh, who were Egyptians, as it says they would be sons of Israel just as Ruben or Simeon are. Also in Genesis 48:16 Israel says, "Let my name be named on them", the name of Israel.


KJV Genesis 48:5
 5.  And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.

KJV Genesis 48:16
16.  The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.

Another scripture is Exodus 12:48. The carnal nation would accept a stranger into Israel provided they became circumcised and keep the law.

KJV Exodus 12:48
48.  And when a stranger shall sojourn with thee, and will keep the passover to the Lord, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one that is born in the land: for no uncircumcised person shall eat thereof.

This is a shadow of our being grafted into spiritual Israel while the unbelieving carnal Israelites were broken off. In carnal Israel you could not eat the Passover unless you were born in the land but in spiritual Israel you had to be born again by the holy spirit to eat the Passover of Jesus.
The Father, the one true God, adopts us as His sons and daughters and we are every bit as much of God as Jesus is.

KJV Romans 8:14-19
14.  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
 15.  For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
 16.  The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
 17.  And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
 18.  For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
 19.  For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

The saints are grafted in, adopted into spiritual Israel and The name of Israel is named on us as it was the sons of Joseph.

There are two Israels.

KJV Romans 4:13-14
 13.  For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.
 14.  For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of none effect:

KJV Romans 9:6-8
 6.  Not as though the word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
 7.  Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
 8.  That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed. (This shows the seperation of spiritual and carnal Israel)

KJV Romans 11:16-17
 16.  For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
 17.  And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, were graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;

We are the holy seed by adoption and are sons and daughters of God and Jesus Christ is our elder brother, the first born of many. WE are the Israel of God, twelve spiritual tribes, the first fruits of His creation.

KJV Galatians 6:15-16
 15.  For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
 16.  And as many as walk according to this rule, peace be on them, and mercy, and upon the Israel of God.

KJV James 1:1
 1.  James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

KJV Philippians 3:3
 3.  For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.


KJV Romans 8:23
23.  And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

KJV James 1:18
 18.  Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

KJV Revelation 14:4
4.  These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.  According to scripture there were never very many of us.  The first fruits are a very small harvest but there will be afterwards other much larger harvests.  It is few now but many later.

By the will of God most high we are spiritual Israel, the first fruits of God and the Lamb.

 
1948

God made a covenant with carnal Israel after bringing them out of Egypt but Israel broke that covenant and brought the curses of it upon themselves.  This curse has not been lifted; 1948 was not the fulfillment of Gods promise to Abraham. 1948 was an act of Satan to set up his end time deception. 


KJV Leviticus 26:12-46
 12.  And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.
 13.  I am the Lord your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bands of your yoke, and made you go upright.
 14.  But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments;
 15.  And if ye shall despise my statutes, or if your soul abhor my judgments, so that ye will not do all my commandments, but that ye break my covenant:
 16.  I also will do this unto you; I will even appoint over you terror, consumption, and the burning ague, that shall consume the eyes, and cause sorrow of heart: and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it.
 17.  And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be slain before your enemies: they that hate you shall reign over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you.
 18.  And if ye will not yet for all this hearken unto me, then I will punish you seven times more for your sins.
 19.  And I will break the pride of your power; and I will make your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass:
 20.  And your strength shall be spent in vain: for your land shall not yield her increase, neither shall the trees of the land yield their fruits.
 21.  And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins.
 22.  I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate.
 23.  And if ye will not be reformed by me by these things, but will walk contrary unto me;
 24.  Then will I also walk contrary unto you, and will punish you yet seven times for your sins.
 25.  And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant: and when ye are gathered together within your cities, I will send the pestilence among you; and ye shall be delivered into the hand of the enemy.
 26.  And when I have broken the staff of your bread, ten women shall bake your bread in one oven, and they shall deliver you your bread again by weight: and ye shall eat, and not be satisfied.
 27.  And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me;
 28.  Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins.
 29.  And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.
 30.  And I will destroy your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my soul shall abhor you.
 31.  And I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and I will not smell the savour of your sweet odours.
 32.  And I will bring the land into desolation: and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it.
 33.  And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate, and your cities waste.
 34.  Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies' land; even then shall the land rest, and enjoy her sabbaths.
 35.  As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it.
 36.  And upon them that are left alive of you I will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies; and the sound of a shaken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword; and they shall fall when none pursueth.
 37.  And they shall fall one upon another, as it were before a sword, when none pursueth: and ye shall have no power to stand before your enemies.
 38.  And ye shall perish among the heathen, and the land of your enemies shall eat you up.
 39.  And they that are left of you shall pine away in their iniquity in your enemies' lands; and also in the iniquities of their fathers shall they pine away with them.
 40.  If they shall confess their iniquity, and the iniquity of their fathers, with their trespass which they trespassed against me, and that also they have walked contrary unto me;
 41.  And that I also have walked contrary unto them, and have brought them into the land of their enemies; if then their uncircumcised hearts be humbled, and they then accept of the punishment of their iniquity:
 42.  Then will I remember my covenant with Jacob, and also my covenant with Isaac, and also my covenant with Abraham will I remember; and I will remember the land.  (Did Israel ever do this; no they never have.)
 43.  The land also shall be left of them, and shall enjoy her sabbaths, while she lieth desolate without them: and they shall accept of the punishment of their iniquity: because, even because they despised my judgments, and because their soul abhorred my statutes.
 44.  And yet for all that, when they be in the land of their enemies, I will not cast them away, neither will I abhor them, to destroy them utterly, and to break my covenant with them: for I am the Lord their God.
 45.  But I will for their sakes remember the covenant of their ancestors, whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the heathen, that I might be their God: I am the Lord.
 46.  These are the statutes and judgments and laws, which the Lord made between him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.

It will be during the great tribulation that God will rescue Israel and remember the covenant of Abraham. Later all of carnal Israel will be resurrected from the dead in the second resurrection.

KJV Deuteronomy 4:27-31
 27.  And the Lord shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the Lord shall lead you.
 28.  And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.
 29.  But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. (Israel has never done this yet)
 30.  When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;
 31.  (For the Lord thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.
The curse will end and the covenant be renewed when God raises up David to be their king.
KJV Ezekiel 37:1-28
 1.  The hand of the Lord was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the Lord, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
 2.  And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
 3.  And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? and I answered, O Lord God, thou knowest.
 4.  Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.
 5.  Thus saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
 6.  And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.  (This is the second resurrection)
 7.  So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
 8.  And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
 9.  Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord God; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
 10.  So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
 11.  Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
 12.  Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
 13.  And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves, O My people, and brought you up out of your graves,
 14.  And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the Lord have spoken it, and performed it, saith the Lord.  (Do you think the Jews today Have Gods Holy Spirit?)
 15.  The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
 16.  Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and for all the house of Israel his companions:
 17.  And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.
 18.  And when the children of thy people shall speak unto thee, saying, Wilt thou not shew us what thou meanest by these?
 19.  Say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in mine hand.
 20.  And the sticks whereon thou writest shall be in thine hand before their eyes.
 21.  And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:
 22.  And I will make them one nation in the land upon the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all.  (Did this happen yet?  No it has not.)
 23.  Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.
 24.  And David my servant shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them.  (If David is not king in Israel today then Israel today is not the fulfillment of the promise to Abraham)
 25.  And they shall dwell in the land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt; and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children's children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.
 26.  Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them: and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them for evermore.

 (None of these things have happened yet therefore todays Israel is not what Irvin Baxter says it is.)
 27.  My tabernacle also shall be with them: yea, I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
 28.  And the heathen shall know that I the Lord do sanctify Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them for evermore.


Carnal Israel at this time is not Gods people and God is not their God.  In this current evil age God has written off Israel but will remember them in the latter days, during the tribulation, the time of Jacobs trouble.  Today the Jews are an antichrist people.  They do not accept Jesus as their messiah, they do not have the Holy Spirit and they are under the law and not grace and faith that is in the new covenant.

The church is and always has been Gods true elect saints while carnal Israel was only a shadow of the future of what Jesus Christ would bring. 

Satan is setting up his end time deception that will very closely resemble Gods plan and that is why the deception is so great that if possible it could deceive the very elect.

KJV Matthew 24:24
 24.  For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

KJV 2 Kings 21:12-15
 12.  Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I am bringing such evil upon Jerusalem and Judah, that whosoever heareth of it, both his ears shall tingle.
 13.  And I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab: and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipeth a dish, wiping it, and turning it upside down.
 14.  And I will forsake the remnant of mine inheritance, and deliver them into the hand of their enemies; and they shall become a prey and a spoil to all their enemies;
 15.  Because they have done that which was evil in my sight, and have provoked me to anger, since the day their fathers came forth out of Egypt, even unto this day.


KJV Jeremiah 7:22-34
 22.  For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:
 23.  But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.
 24.  But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.
 25.  Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:
 26.  Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.
 27.  Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.
 28.  But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the Lord their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.
 29.  Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the Lord hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.
 30.  For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the Lord: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.
 31.  And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.
 32.  Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.
 33.  And the carcases of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall fray them away.
 34.  Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.

KJV Revelation 18:23-24
 23.  And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
 24.  And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.

KJV Matthew 23:29-37
29.  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
 30.  And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
 31.  Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
 32.  Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
 33.  Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
 34.  Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
 35.  That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
 36.  Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
 37.  O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

The Catholic church was not the first to use blue, purple and scarlet.
KJV Exodus 28:3-8
 3.  And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
 4.  And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
 5.  And they shall take gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen.
 6.  And they shall make the ephod of gold, of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work.
 7.  It shall have the two shoulderpieces thereof joined at the two edges thereof; and so it shall be joined together.
 8.  And the curious girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work thereof; even of gold, of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen.

The Jews today mix the Babylonian talmund and the zohar with the torah making them the mystery of Babylon, the city where Jesus was murdered. 

Would God bless a people like this?  Does God have any nation or nations on Earth today or at anytime since divorcing ancient Israel for harlotry and idolatry?

The Protection of the Saints
Friday, September 4, 2015



God has promised His saints protection from the wrath of Satan during the tribulation. Jesus also gives us his word as well.

KJV Revelation 3:10
 10.  Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

KJV Psalms 34:9
 9.  O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

KJV Psalms 37:28
 28.  For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.

KJV Psalms 97:10
10.  Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

KJV Psalms 149:1-9
 1.  Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
 2.  Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
 3.  Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
 4.  For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
 5.  Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.
 6.  Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
 7.  To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
 8.  To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
 9.  To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord.


KJV Romans 5:9
9.  Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

KJV 1 Thessalonians 1:10
 10.  And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

This wrath to come is not Gods but Satans because in the time of Gods wrath we will be spirit beings so this is speaking of the tribulation, the time of Satans wrath.


KJV 1 Thessalonians 5:9
9.  For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

KJV Psalms 3:6
 6.  I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

KJV Psalms 91:1-16
 1.  He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
 2.  I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
 3.  Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
 4.  He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
 5.  Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
 6.  Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
 7.  A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
 8.  Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
 9.  Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
 10.  There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
 11.  For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
 12.  They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
 13.  Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
 14.  Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
 15.  He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
 16.  With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.


KJV Isaiah 54:13-17
13.  And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
 14.  In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
 15.  Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
 16.  Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
 17.  No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

By Grace Through Faith

How many of you are righteous?

When we repent and God forgives us, God imputes His righteousness to us.

KJV Romans 4:3-8
 3.  For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
 4.  Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
 5.  But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
 6.  Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works,
 7.  Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.
 8.  Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.

Grace keeps us in a continual state of righteousness by faith.

KJV Romans 5:20
 20.  Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:


Our spiritual condition is maintained by a constant cleansing of our sins.

KJV 1 John 1:9
 9.  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

This keeps the spots, blemishes and wrinkles out of our garments.

KJV Ephesians 5:26-27
 26.  That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
 27.  That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

We need to be further clothed with the white robe of righteousness that we receive when we enter the kingdom. This will be our own righteousness and not imputed by God. This is the change.

KJV 2 Corinthians 5:1-4
1.  For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
 2.  For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
 3.  If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
 4.  For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

Now, because of our faith, God calls us righteous, it is the righteousness of God by faith.  At present the righteousness in us is not ours, it is Gods imputed to us.

KJV 2 Corinthians 5:21
21.  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

It is as if we wear baby clothes now but formal attire when in the kingdom.

KJV Matthew 22:11-14
11.  And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
 12.  And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
 13.  Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
 14.  For many are called, but few are chosen.

We maintain the baby clothes with the gospel message; if we dirty ourselves God will change our diaper.

KJV 1 John 2:1-2
 1.  My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
 2.  And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.

In the kingdom, God will have full grown sons and daughters that cannot dirty themselves anymore.  When we are baptized into Jesus, this is our first new diaper, our first cleansing of all past sins but we continue to dirty ourselves to the end of this life; however the frequency of those times we need changed should decrease as we grow talents.  This is bearing fruit to God, growing in His spirit.  This is how we, the saints, are the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ.

For a broken spirit is to God a sacrifice and a broken contrite heart God will not despise.

KJV Psalms 51:17
17.  The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

God knows our heart and that our sins break it as we feel sorrow and disgust over it, we repent, ask forgiveness and God forgives.

KJV 1 John 3:19-21
19.  And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.
 20.  For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
 21.  Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

All of this is Gods doing, it is His will.  Our broken human spirit because of our sins is a living sacrifice to God who knows we have a contrite heart.  Contrite means grief and sorrow over doing wrong, Godly sorrow, that leads us to repent.  King David committed adultery and murder; Psalm 51 was written to express David’s extreme sorrow over these sins, he repented deeply and we know God forgave him.  God will forgive us too.

This is the gospel, this is Gods will.  Our part in this is to believe and through our lives of experiencing this love and mercy be made stronger spiritually. 

KJV Romans 5:1-2
 1.  Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
 2.  By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

This grace is always present for us and we should boldly go to God to obtain mercy and forgiveness at any time.

KJV Hebrews 4:16
 16.  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Universal
Monday, May 5, 2014



Full Definition of UNIVERSAL
1
: including or covering all or a whole collectively or distributively without limit or exception; especially : available equitably to all members of a society 
2
a : present or occurring everywhere
b : existent or operative everywhere or under all conditions 
3
a : embracing a major part or the greatest portion (as of humankind
b : comprehensively broad and versatile 
4
a : affirming or denying something of all members of a class or of all values of a variable
b : denoting every member of a class 


The word universal does not appear in scripture but the word “all” does and is seen by some to mean the same as universal. 

God to Moses;

KJV Exodus 32:31-33
 31.  And Moses returned unto the Lord, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
 32.  Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
 33.  And the Lord said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

“Thy book which thou hast written” refers to the Lambs book of life in which the names of all of those who will receive salvation are written.

KJV Revelation 3:5
 5.  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

To sin directly against God one must have His Holy Spirit for this makes a person a free moral agent and responsible for the spiritual knowledge God gives to him.  The sins of the unconverted God winks at as they are done in ignorance but once converted they will be held accountable.

KJV Acts 17:29-30
 29.  Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device.
 30.  And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent:

Salvation has conditions that must be met in order to receive it; if this is true, then by definition it cannot be universal; for to be universal salvation there is no condition, for it is without limit or exception.

Repentance is a condition, obeying the gospel is a condition, loving God and neighbor is a condition, overcoming sin is a condition, faith in God and Jesus is a condition.  None of these conditions can be met without having the Holy Spirit.   Having the spirit but refusing to meet the conditions violates the new covenant and results in everlasting death.  God says that He can blot out a name from the book of life and if this is true then the name blotted out will not have life.

We know that the only way to receive salvation is by Jesus Christ so if one with spiritual knowledge, with the Holy Spirit, willingly rejects Christ this is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit of God.  Carefully read the following scripture;

KJV Hebrews 6:4-6
 4.  For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
 5.  And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
 6.  If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

KJV Hebrews 10:26-29
 26.  For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
 27.  But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
 28.  He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
 29.  Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?

If we sin “willfully” while having the Holy Spirit there remains no more sacrifice for that sin.  Jesus is the only sacrifice for sin but not this “willful” sin.

Check out the meaning of the word “willful”.

Strong's Ref. # 1596
Romanized  hekousios
Pronounced hek-oo-see'-ose
adverb from the same as GSN1595; voluntarily:
KJV--wilfully, willingly.

Since Jesus is the only way to have salvation but this “willful sin” is not covered by the sacrifice of Jesus, then how is this person going to receive salvation?

The carnal people who break the law can be forgiven because they are in ignorance but those who have been given the Holy Spirit and break the covenant God makes with them blaspheme the Holy Spirit and bring upon themselves total and complete everlasting death.

The resurrections are made possible by Jesus but if one with the Holy Spirit blasphemes there will be no resurrection for this person because the sacrifice of Christ will not cover this sin. 

This is not a hard thing to see, it is scripture, and I have not altered its meaning.  Why have such a warning recorded in Hebrews and in the gospels if there is universal salvation?

KJV Matthew 12:31-32
 31.  Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
 32.  And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

The author of Hebrews and the words of Jesus are identical about this subject; there is a sin that God will not forgive.  Universalism stands on the foundation of total acceptance without condition but the scripture plainly tells us that salvation has conditions and warns us about what happens if those conditions are not met. There would be no need for any warning at all if salvation was universal. 

Satan and those fallen angels, who are enemies of God, have all seen God and Gods glory yet these beings turned evil and will suffer an everlasting fate as punishment.  If God spared not the angels who sinned, God will not spare any human either.  If angels can do this so can humans. 

Salvation

Salvation is being in the kingdom of God as an immortal spirit being unable to sin or be tempted with evil.

Repentance, grace, faith and the sacrifice of Jesus is not salvation; these are the things that reconcile us to God and place us on the straight and narrow way that leads to the kingdom, to salvation.

Once we are in the kingdom we do not need repentance, grace, faith and the sacrifice of Christ because we will have achieved, we will have attained, we have salvation.  No one has ever experienced salvation, it is promised to us with conditions.  When converted and given the Holy Spirit we have entered into a covenant with God.  This covenant has conditions to meet in order to have the promised salvation.

When you are in the kingdom this is salvation and then you cannot lose salvation.  At this time you do not have salvation and it is possible that you can lose the offer of it if you commit the unpardonable sin.  God will withdraw His offer if you do not honor the conditions God requires for you to have salvation.  You must love and obey God and Christ when you have the Holy Spirit or you blaspheme that spirit.  If one third of the angels sinned against God what about human beings?  If Lucifer could convince angels to rebel humans would be far easier. 
At this present time you are an heir of salvation, if you continue in the requirements God has in the new covenant, but if not God will disinherit you. You do not inherit the kingdom/salvation; when converted you are
only an heir. 

Keep in mind as you read the scripture below that our inheritance is the kingdom which is what salvation is and that we do not have salvation at present but it is promised to us if we obey Gods requirements. Remember that you cannot lose salvation once you have salvation and you do not have it now; you have the opportunity, the hope, the promise and you will be judged by what you do with it.

KJV Matthew 5:5
 5.  Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

KJV Matthew 19:29
 29.  And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

KJV Luke 10:25-28
 25.  And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted him, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
 26.  He said unto him, What is written in the law? how readest thou?
 27.  And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.
 28.  And he said unto him, Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live.

KJV 1 Corinthians 6:9
 9.  Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?

KJV Ephesians 1:11-14
 11.  In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
 12.  That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
 13.  In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
 14.  Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

KJV Ephesians 5:5
 5.  For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

KJV Colossians 3:24-25
 24.  Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
 25.  But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.

KJV Revelation 21:7
 7.  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

The most important first step in the hope of salvation is for God to give you His Holy Spirit and begin to teach you the truth of spiritual knowledge bringing you out of the worlds lies and set you free.  This is what brings you out from under the old covenant law and into the new covenant grace so that you have access to repentance and forgiveness  of sins.  As you stand in faith and grace God begins to work with your human spirit to conform it into the image of Jesus who God made an exact image of Himself.  This image is that of love and righteousness that is incapable of sin and is the ultimate quality the saints must achieve to have salvation which is immortality.  You must be made incapable of sin first before you can become immortal.
In this human existence you will always sin because you have only a portion of the Holy Spirit but you can grow in the spirit and overcome sins as you mature bearing fruit unto God.  God can see your progress as all of us are an open book to Him and He will know if we grow with the gift of His spirit or not.  What God looks for is where our heart is; is it with Him, is our burning desire to obey Him and love Him beyond all else having faith in His son as you have faith in Him.  It is this desire and our growth in overcoming sin that pleases God and no matter how much growth is produced, as long as there is growth, when we die God will then seal our human spirit in total righteousness and we will be incapable of sin.  Then when the resurrection happens this perfected human spirit will be placed into a glorified spirit body thus we will then be immortal, have salvation, and then we can never lose it.

Jesus came into the world with a human spirit that God had already made perfect in righteousness and love so that Jesus was incapable of sin.  All Jesus needed was a glorified body to be immortal which he received when he ascended to heaven.  Jesus was Gods way of saying to us, “This man, my son, is what I will transform you to be like if you are willing and obedient so that you will be worthy of the salvation, the immortality, I have offered you through him.” 

God loves and values the life of His son Jesus to the point where He will forgive all manner of sin that is common unto man but God will not dishonor the sacrifice of His son by forgiving those who blaspheme His, Gods, Holy Spirit.  Gods spirit is the spirit of grace and to blaspheme His spirit is to spit in His face and the face of His son, it is going to far and is the only sin God will not forgive.

Free will is the right and ability to chose between different and possible courses of action unimpeded. This includes moral responsibility.  The knowledge of good and evil requires a choice be made to do one or the other.  Does God make this choice for us?  If God does then we have no free will but if God does not then we have free will.  Who is responsible for the evil and sin that people do?  Satan is no doubt the tempter but can Satan force us to sin?  If Satan possesses us then the sin is against our will but if not then it is our sin because we chose to do what Satan tempts us with.  Now God allows Satan to tempt and also possess people, does this make God evil or the origin of sin?  No.  It is God making all things work together for good as God uses Satan as a tool to achieve His will.  The choice for us is serve God or serve Satan.  The carnal man serves Satan while the spiritual man serves God. When God calls and chooses a person they must decide who to serve.  James said; “Therefore, to him who knows to do good, but does it not, to him it is sin.” James 4:17   

Moses commanded Israel to keep Gods law. “I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death; blessing and cursing, therefore choose life that both you and thy seed may live”  Deuteronomy 30:19    

See 1 Corinthians 9:7-9.    Ezra 7:13.  Revelation 22:17

Names can be blotted out of the book of life.  Jesus said to fear God, who can destroy both body and spirit in the lake of fire.  To whom much is given more will be required.  Universal salvation destroys the gospel as it eliminates the need for it, for Christ, faith, repentance, forgiveness, justification, righteousness as it is a type of once saved always saved.  Salvation is not conversion.  Conversion is the road that leads to salvation.  God is not willing that any should perish but that ALL come to REPENTANCE.  GOD SAVES ALL THAT ARE IN CHRIST, IF YOU WITH THE GIFT OF THE HOLY SPIRIY REJECT CHRIST AND BLASPHEME THE HOLY SPIRIT YOU ARE NO LONGER IN CHRIST.  THE UNRIGHTEOUS shall not inherit salvation which is impeccably and immortality in the kingdom of God.   God is not mocked, whatever you sow, that shall you also reap.  If humankind has free will, which they do, then God will not remove it but HE will let you have it.  Agape is the kind of love that is God, no one forces God to love us and God does not force us to love HIM. True undefiled love demands free will.  This kind of love is what the elect receives by Gods Holy Spirit you become HIS son even while yet mortal and Christ your elder brother.  This agape bond is truly the power of the new covenant as it is the greatest gift of all.  The unpardonable sin is spiritual adultery far greater and more sinful than the seventh commandment.  If an elect saint commits spiritual adultery the punishment is everlasting death, the second death, the lake of fire and a name blotted out of a book.  Anyone that believes in universal salvation is deceived.  Remember the definition of universal, no conditions, no limits , no exceptions.  This would mean that you do not even need the Holy Spirit for salvation.  

Two Trees Of Eden

KJV Genesis 1:26-30
26.  And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
 27.  So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
 
The fact that Adam was intelligent and was given dominion over the Earth is what made him a shadow of the image of God.  Adams human spirit was a shadow of Gods spirit.

 28.  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
 29.  And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
 30.  And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

KJV Genesis 2:8-9
 8.  And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
 9.  And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
 
God would have contradicted Himself if once He says all trees are good for food then later says that one tree produces death if you eat its fruit; how is that good for food.

The tree of life “also” and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil shows a separation of these two trees from all the other trees.  The singling out of these two trees from all others shows a special significance.

Strong's Ref. # 8432 MIDST
Romanized  tavek
Pronounced taw'-vek
from an unused root meaning to sever; a bisection, i.e. (by implication) the centre:
KJV--among(-st), X between, half, X (there-,where-), in(-to), middle, mid[-night], midst (among), X out (of), X through, X with(-in).

The tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil were both in the midst, the center, the middle of the garden and Adam and Eve knew both of them. God wanted these two trees to be seen and noticed.

KJV Genesis 3:2-3
2.  And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
 3.  But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

KJV Genesis 3:22-24
 22.  And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
 
This action by God indicates that God did not want Adam and Eve to eat from the fruit of the tree of life. It shows that God knew they knew about the tree.  If they did not know about it why would God make this statement?  Also this proves humans are not immortal souls if they had to eat the rust of the tree of life to gain immortality.

God takes no chances and goes even further.

23.  Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
 24.  So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

This action by God shows that Adam and Eve did know about the tree of life and could possibly tell others about it and so God took extraordinary measures to prevent humans access to the tree of life.

It is not Gods nature to test man without a choice and this was a test for Adam who failed to obey a direct command from God.  It makes no sense if Adam had been ignorant of the existence of the tree of life for this  would leave his only choice to be death.  Even at the giving of the law to Israel God gave the choice of life or death.  Now in the new covenant God gives the choice of life or death.  The admonishment from God is choose life and live.  From Adam to now man has a choice.  Jesus is now the tree of life for the saints for who ever feeds on Jesus will live because of Jesus.

KJV John 6:57
 57.  As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

We have a choice as did Adam.  The unpardonable sin proves we have a choice; to eat Christ or not, to live or to die, only this time it is not just a physical death but  everlasting, forever.  God always give us a choice.  Choose life and live.

KJV Revelation 2:7
 7.  He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.

KJV Revelation 22:2
 2.  In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 the first physical the second spiritual in this there is wisdom.

There is the first Adam and the second Adam;  The first chose death but the second is our life.  Both Adam and Jesus had no human father, God was their Father.  The saints have the same choice as Adam did, life or death but Adams death was physical and temporary while the death that comes for refusing Jesus is everlasting.

Linage of Christ 

 If Zedekiah was a true king of Judah then Jesus Christ was not the messiah. 

 KJV Matthew 1:6-16 
6. And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias;
 7. And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa; 
8. And Asa begat Josaphat; and Josaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias; 
9. And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias; 
10. And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josias; 
11. And Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: 
12. And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel; and Salathiel begat Zorobabel; Jechonias, 

Jechonias and  Coniah are the same person as Jehoiachin, the 19th and last king of Judah. Zedekiah is not mentioned in what is the true line of kings from David. The Christ is of the true line and Jesus did not come from Zedekiah. This is the true line of kings and it must be so because Jesus is the heir to David’s throne. Zedekiah nor any of his daughters are of the true line. Zedekiah was not the true king; Coniah was as Jesus is descended from him. To deny these facts is to deny that Jesus is the true king. 

13. And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; 
14. And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; 
15. And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; 
16. And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. 

The account in Luke confirms the same as that in Matthew. The two names in red below were the sons of Coniah. 

KJV Luke 3:23-31 
23. And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli, 
24. Which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Janna, which was the son of Joseph, 
25. Which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Amos, which was the son of Naum, which was the son of Esli, which was the son of Nagge, 
26. Which was the son of Maath, which was the son of Mattathias, which was the son of Semei, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Juda, 
27. Which was the son of Joanna, which was the son of Rhesa, which was the son of Zorobabel, which was the son of Salathiel, which was the son of Neri, 
28. Which was the son of Melchi, which was the son of Addi, which was the son of Cosam, which was the son of Elmodam, which was the son of Er,
 29. Which was the son of Jose, which was the son of Eliezer, which was the son of Jorim, which was the son of Matthat, which was the son of Levi, 
30. Which was the son of Simeon, which was the son of Juda, which was the son of Joseph, which was the son of Jonan, which was the son of Eliakim, 
31. Which was the son of Melea, which was the son of Menan, which was the son of Mattatha, which was the son of Nathan, which was the son of David, 

The testimony of Matthew, Luke, Ezekiel, Jeremiah and the king of Babylon say that Coniah was the king of Judah and not Zedekiah therefore no son or daughter of Zedekiah could ever be a king at all. Scripture is the only source that can be used to prove the truth on any matter. Out side sources like Irish folklore combined with scripture leads to a lie. British Israelism is the same type of lie as Dan Browns theory that Jesus survived the crucifixion and married Mary Magdalene then moved to France and produced the line of French kings. French folklore seems to support this when combined with twisting the scriptures just as the myth of British Israelism does. Both of these theories are lies and deny that Jesus is the king and high priest of Israel, the messiah sent from God. 

Queens of Britain who ruled alone, without a king. House of Tudor: 
Mary 1 1553 to 1558                          5 years
Elizabeth 1 1558 to 1603                45 years

House of Stuarts:
Mary 2 1689 to 1694                          5 years
Anne 1702 to 1714                             12 years

 King David of ancient Israel was promised by God that he would never lack a man to sit on his throne. Above it is shown by historical record that for a total period of 193 years of the British monarchy there was no king and was ruled by a woman. This lack of a man shows that the prophecy concerning David cannot concern the British throne. The prophecy refers to Jesus since Jesus continues forever being immortal and is why the throne of Israel belongs to Jesus and no one else. People who believe in British Israelism look to carnal, fleshly genealogies and not to the truth of how scripture confirms Jesus as David’s true and only heir to the throne of all of Israel. To continue to focus on endless fleshly genealogies is to be of a carnal mind. 

KJV 1 Timothy 1:4 4. Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do. 

Irish fables and fleshly genealogies combined with twisted scripture to fit a lie cannot be true. To present the evidence to those who believe in this lie as to its heresy usually is a waste of time and effort because they will ignore all logic and reason and continue to cling to the lie. I know people who believe in the lie of British Israelism and think it holds the key to understanding prophecy when in fact it will blind them to the truth of prophecy. It seems these types never consider that prophecy is a gift that is by the Holy Spirit and that men like J. H. Allen and Herbert Armstrong did not have the Holy Spirit otherwise neither would have believed the many lies they taught and wrote about. Anyone who believes that Jesus is God does not know Jesus or God so how can they know prophecy that comes only from God? Those who believe in British Israelism seem to forget about the curse. If the people of the U.S. and  Britain are the lost tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh then to receive the blessings they must keep the whole law and we know that neither nation did. How could God bless any nation that will not keep His law? The U.S. and Britain are carnal heathen nations that by time and chance rose to power and prosperity and not because God blessed them. The scripture says that the curse overtook both Israel and Judah for breaking the covenant of Moses. They would be a curse to the nations where God would scatter them and they would be few in number, not a great multitude. 

KJV Leviticus 26:21-22 
21. And if ye walk contrary unto me, and will not hearken unto me; I will bring seven times more plagues upon you according to your sins. 
22. I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your high ways shall be desolate. 

KJV Deuteronomy 4:26-28 
26. I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed. 
27. And the Lord shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the Lord shall lead you. 
28. And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell. 

Only after Jesus returns will the curse on Israel be removed. 

KJV Deuteronomy 4:29-31 
29. But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul. 
30. When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice; 
31. (For the Lord thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them. 

It should be so clear that British Israelism is nothing but a carnal fable that will cause blindness to the truth of prophetic events. 

KJV Psalms 37:22 
22. For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off. 

Abraham and the true Israel of God, the church, inherit the Earth, not fleshly carnal people of Israel. 

KJV Proverbs 3:33 
33. The curse of the Lord is in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just. 

KJV Isaiah 24:4-6 
4. The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 
5. The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 
6. Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left. 

KJV Isaiah 43:22-28 
22. But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel. 
23. Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense. 
24. Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities. 
25. I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. 
26. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified. 
27. Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me. 
28. Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches. 

This what Psalm 89 is about. 

KJV Psalms 89:38-44 38. 
But thou hast cast off and abhorred, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed. 39. Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground. 40. Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin. 41. All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbours. 42. Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. 43. Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him to stand in the battle. 44. Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground. 

This is how and why Jesus is the only king of Israel and there has not been an Earthly king since Jehochin.

 KJV Matthew 22:41-46 41. 
While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42. Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David. 43. He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying, 44. The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool? 45. If David then call him Lord, how is he his son? 46. And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions. 

KJV Luke 1:31-33 31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus. 32. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: 33. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. 

If God gave Jesus the throne of David then how can some carnal heathen from Britain be the king of Judah? 

KJV Acts 2:25-30 25. For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: 26. Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope: 27. Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption. 28. Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance. 29. Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 30. Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; 

Those who teach British Israelism deny that Jesus Christ is the true king of Israel, carnal or spiritual.

KJV Romans 1:1-4 1. Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, 2. (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) 3. Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; 4. And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: 

KJV Revelation 22:16 16. I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. 

KJV Isaiah 65:9-16 9. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. 10. And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me. 11. But ye are they that forsake the Lord, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number. 12. Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not. 13. Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: 14. Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit. 15. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord God shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name: 16. That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes. 

KJV Jeremiah 11:1-11 1. The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord saying, 2. Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem; 3. And say thou unto them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel; Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of this covenant, 4. Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God: 5. That I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. Then answered I, and said, So be it, O Lord. 6. Then the Lord said unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them. 7. For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice. 8. Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do: but they did them not. 9. And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 10. They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers. 11. Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them. 

KJV Jeremiah 17:5 5. Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. 

KJV Jeremiah 24:8-10 8. And as the evil figs, which cannot be eaten, they are so evil; surely thus saith the Lord, So will I give Zedekiah the king of Judah, and his princes, and the residue of Jerusalem, that remain in this land, and them that dwell in the land of Egypt: 9. And I will deliver them to be removed into all the kingdoms of the earth for their hurt, to be a reproach and a proverb, a taunt and a curse, in all places whither I shall drive them. 10. And I will send the sword, the famine, and the pestilence, among them, till they be consumed from off the land that I gave unto them and to their fathers. 

KJV Jeremiah 25:17-18 17. Then took I the cup at the Lord's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the Lord had sent me: 18. To wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day; 

KJV Jeremiah 42:15-22 15. And now therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye remnant of Judah; Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; If ye wholly set your faces to enter into Egypt, and go to sojourn there; 16. Then it shall come to pass, that the sword, which ye feared, shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and the famine, whereof ye were afraid, shall follow close after you there in Egypt; and there ye shall die. 17. So shall it be with all the men that set their faces to go into Egypt to sojourn there; they shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: and none of them shall remain or escape from the evil that I will bring upon them. 18. For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; As mine anger and my fury hath been poured forth upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; so shall my fury be poured forth upon you, when ye shall enter into Egypt: and ye shall be an execration, and an astonishment, and a curse, and a reproach; and ye shall see this place no more. 19. The Lord hath said concerning you, O ye remnant of Judah; Go ye not into Egypt: know certainly that I have admonished you this day. 20. For ye dissembled in your hearts, when ye sent me unto the Lord your God, saying, Pray for us unto the Lord our God; and according unto all that the Lord our God shall say, so declare unto us, and we will do it. 21. And now I have this day declared it to you; but ye have not obeyed the voice of the Lord your God, nor any thing for the which he hath sent me unto you. 22. Now therefore know certainly that ye shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, in the place whither ye desire to go and to sojourn. 

KJV Daniel 9:8-12 8. O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee. 9. To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him; 10. Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets. 11. Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him. 12. And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem. 

KJV Galatians 3:10 10. For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. 

KJV Galatians 3:13-19 13. Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: 14. That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. 15. Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto. 16. Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. 17. And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect. 18. For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise. 19. Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. 

The only way to escape the curse of the law is to come to Jesus, to be called and chosen by God, drawn to God through Jesus. The U.S. and Britain do not meet these requirements. The only people who do are the saints, the spiritual children of Abraham. If you search for truth compare spiritual things with spiritual and not with carnal myths and fables from heathen cultures cut off from God. This physical creation is nothing but a shadow of the true spiritual creation God will make. Jesus was the first being of this spiritual creation. Physical rulers; kings, presidents, emperors and dictators are of this evil world and none of them or the nations they ruled ever knew God and were not Gods nation. The only people who ever have know God and Jesus are Gods elect saints and it is these people who have the truth and are Gods holy nation. Carnal Israel was never the intent of God for the holy nation He is creating. It is all about spirit and nothing about the flesh. Those who focus on fleshly things focus on death. 

British Israelism is death because it is carnal minded and one of many ways that seems right to a carnal minded person but the end of it is death.   The law and carnal Israel were just a shadow of the true spiritual reality of Jesus Christ.  The kingdom of God was prepared at the foundation of the world and its King was the prophetic Messiah as declared by the prophets since the world began.  With the birth of Jesus prophecy was fulfilled along with the hope of the saints to share in the inheritance of the Christ.  To give all these things to an evil carnal people totally devoid of the spirit of God in the teachings of British Israelism is blasphemy.
