WILL ISRAEL BOMB IRAN ?

 If you have been watching as Jesus said, Mark 13:34,35,36,37 ,  then events that are currently happening in the Middle East should peak your interest.  A short time ago the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, met with President Trump and the hot topic of their conversation was Irans efforts to construct nuclear weapons.  Netanyahu wanted to attack Irans nuclear sites but Trump wanted a last ditch attempt to convince Iran to end its nuclear program.  Trump did this to alleviate world outrage that would naturally follow when those sites would actually be destroyed. 

 Irans nuclear sites are very deep underground and even bunker buster bombs may not be able to reach them so it may happen that low level nuclear weapons could be used in the hectoton (100 ton) range.  This would result in the deaths of millions and appear to the carnal world to be the tribulation when it is not.

This type of attack on Iran will no doubt bring a response by Iran and it’s allies in the region.  This attack would be using conventional weapons and large numbers of troops that Israel would not be able to defend against conventionally .  It may happen that in order to survive a mass attack Israel would have to use its nuclear weapons.  If this senecio plays out it may well be the war that brings about the 7 year peace covenant between the antichrist and the 10 nations.  This 7 years being the last week of the 70 weeks prophecy in the book of Daniel.  Daniel 9:24,25,26,27   Once this covenant is made it will begin the last 7 years before the return of Christ.  The covenant will indeed cause a brief period of 3 1/2 years of a false millennium.  At the midpoint of this 7 years the antichrist will become the abomination of desolation by declaring himself GOD in the most holy place of the third temple.  The last 3 1/2 years are the great tribulation that is cut short by the early return of Jesus.  

Therefore considering all this information it may be that we are in the last decade or so before the return of Christ.  As an example, if the false tribulation is this year, 2024 , then Christ would return in 2030 or 2031 depending on what month the tribulation begins and is cut short by 220 days or a little over 7 months. 

All of this is speculation but it is based on scripture and how we see things at present.  If a nuclear event happens in the Middle East in the coming months then this would help to confirm our theory.  

WHY SEVEN DAYS OF UNLEAVENED BREAD ?

 In other articles I have shown the leaven is symbolic of spirit relating to what spirit is a person leavened with.  Jesus said,  Matthew 13:33 ,  the kingdom of GOD is like leaven that a woman hid in three measures of meal until it was all leavened.  This refers to the three separate times in which GOD offers salvation to humanity; today, in the millennium and second resurrection.  The days of unleavened bread kept by ancient Israel had symbolism concerning the church alone.  In each age of the church each one successively would need to be leavened with the Holy Spirit.  When in the world and children of Satan we are all leavened with the spirit of malice and wickedness and this spirit must purge out the old leaven, the spirit of Satan, to be leavened with the spirit of GOD.  1 Corinthians 5:6,7,8   The word “keep” is Strongs G1858 meaning to keep a feast allegorically or in a manner that uses symbols or characters to represent abstract ideas or moral qualities where the literal meaning is used to convey a deeper meaning.  Paul is saying that the symbolism of the feast is fulfilled in the riddance of Satans leaven to receive the spirit of GODS leaven which is “the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth”.  Paul was not telling the Corinthians to keep the ancient holy day but rather receive what it only symbolized, the Holy Spirit of GOD.  To be leavened as Jesus said was the kingdom of GOD.  

With this in mind it would be imperative for each era of the church from Ephesus to Laodicea to be leavened with the Holy Spirit.  This is why the days of unleavened bread were kept for seven days.  Each of the seven eras in their turn would be leavened.

Jesus made this possible by his sacrifice, resurrection and ascension.  Jesus fulfilled all the symbolism of all the law of Moses that contained the annual holy days.  Luke 24:44   Once a person has been called and chosen then leavened with the Holy Spirit the symbolism of the ancient days are fulfilled therefore no longer required to to kept.  If you pay off a loan you don’t continue to make payments so in like manner if you are now leavened with the Holy Spirit you no longer look forward to receiving the spirit. 

There are people who yet attempt to keep all the ancient holy days not realizing that they have not been leavened with the Holy Spirit in the first place and operate in total ignorance.  

The seven days of unleavened bread were for the future leavening of the seven church eras in the book of Revelation so that they could have an ear to hear what the spirit says to the churches.  Revelation 2:29

THE ANTICHRIST IS NOT OF THE TRIBE OF DAN

 I have read that some are saying that the antichrist is from the tribe of Dan.  This is because they don’t know who the 144,000 elect in Revelation 7 are.  They are thinking carnally.  Physical descent is not the criteria for determining who these elect 144,000 are.  Romans 9:6,7,8  To think the 144,000 are physically descended from Abraham then is not true.   Galatians 4:28  plainly identifies the church as the children of the promise, the children of Abraham.  Jesus said the Israelites of his day were not the children of Abraham.  John 8:39,40,41,42 physical Israel today is the same as in the first century, they deny Christ and are enemies of the gospel.  

It has been proven that the church is the children of Abraham and the church is also called the elect, the first fruits, the Israel of GOD.  Ephesians 1:4,5   Romans 8:29,30 1 Peter 1:1  2 John 1:1  2 Peter 1:10

In Revelation 7:3,4  the elect are sealed and in Revelation 14:1 the same elect are mentioned. Revelation 14:4 calls them “first fruits” 1 Corinthians 15:20,23  1 Corinthians 16:15  Romans 8:23   James 1:18   Romans 16:15   Romans 11:16

Paul explains how the gentiles were grafted into the olive tree to replace unbelieving Israelites.  The believing Israelites and the believing gentiles are the first fruits, the church composed of former Israelites and former gentiles.  This olive tree is the Israel of GOD, those of the faith of Abraham, not physical descendants but spiritual descendants.  Therefore the 144,000 are not Israelites of the flesh but of the spirit.  

Physical Israelites have been blinded to the message of the gospel, Romans11:7,8,9,10,25,26   2 Corinthians 3:14,15,16   At some point in the first century GOD blinded the Israelites and they will remain blinded until the fullness of the gentiles are called and chosen, only gentiles are being called and chosen. These gentiles are grafted into spiritual Israel, the Israel of GOD, the spiritual descendants of Abraham, the first fruits and elect saints of GOD. 

So then, the tribe of Dan today wherever they are cannot be the tribe of the antichrist .  The antichrist is cast into the lake of fire, the second death along with the false prophet.  Only people that have the Holy Spirit and commit the unpardonable sin, blasphemy of the Holy Spirit, suffer this fate.  Hebrews 6:4,5,6   Matthew 12:31,32   Hebrews 10:26,27,28,29   1 John 5:16    The antichrist has the Holy Spirit and blasphemed the Holy Spirit, to be in opposition to Christ one must know the truth in order to deceive the nations,  only a man from the tribe of Judah can be king of Israel not the tribe of Dan. Deuteronomy 17:15 the tribe of Judah beginning with king David became the kingly tribe.  Therefore to have any scriptural support and to mimic Christ the antichrist will be a Jew.  

A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW IS NEEDED TO UNDERSTAND GRACE

There is a spiritual principle that holds for all humanity in Galatians 6:7  What a man sows he will also reap.  Job gives a similar comment.  Job 4:8  Those who sow trouble reap the same.  Then Solomon, Proverbs 22:8  Sow injustice reap disaster.

Jesus expounded on this principle in Matthew 7:16,17,18   We can identify these sowers and reapers by the fruit of their doings. The sowing and the reaping are related to good or evil fruit. In this teaching we are brought back to Eden where the choice between the fruit of two trees would determine the destiny of humanity.

Remember, whatever a man sows that shall he also reap.  Adam sowed death and that is what humanity reaps.  The first Adam brought death to us all but the second Adam brings life.  This death is everlasting because the fruit of everlasting life was withheld after sin entered the world.  Genesis 3:22,23,24 Many people have a problem when reading the Old Testament writings.  They see what they think is a cruel GOD. They see in the new covenant a GOD of love and cannot justify in their minds what seems to them to be a contradiction.  They are reading scripture and applying human reasoning rather than spiritual reasoning.  What GOD did was the direct result of what Adam sowed.  GOD gave Adam what Adam chose.  GOD did not force Adam to eat the fruit of either tree but did inform him of the danger involved with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.  GOD had no fault in what Adams choice was.  GOD had no fault in all of what followed afterwards. 

Even though GOD knew in eternity Adam would sin HE still created Adam and allowed Adam to choose which is proof of the free will of mankind.  The pain, suffering and death that resulted from Adams choice  is GOD letting us reap what Adam sowed.  Even though things looked hopeless for humanity the lessons GOD would teach and the shadows of HIS love HE incorporated into HIS actions from Eden forward were undeserved of humanity .  As the centuries passed the light of GOD was declared by the prophets to reveal to those with understanding the hope of a messiah that GOD would provide.  Remember John 3:16  GOD gave HIS son, the only righteous man that ever lived, and sacrificed him to save us from Adams free will decision to obey Satan rather than his Creator. These things were written about in the book of Hebrews and other scriptures in both old and new covenants.  Some people resort to blaming GOD and falsely accusing HIM for what they perceived as cruelty and see no reason to read or study the law.  These people set themselves up as GODS judge in a similar manner as Job did.  Job 4:17   Job 38:1,2   Job 34:5,6,7,8,9 . Paul is said by many to have taught Christians to keep some of the law, but this is not true.  Paul taught Gentiles about the law because it was what humanity needs saved from.  Paul explained in detail how the law was just a shadow  but these shadows had a message that foretold of the coming of the messiah.  If you were convicted of a crime and sentenced to death but never understood the crime you were accused of committing wouldn’t you want to know ?  The unconverted just say, “ Jesus saved me from my sins” , not even knowing what sin really is.  These ignorant people think sin is doing or saying something bad.  Jesus made it clear that all sin is lust in our thoughts and words and deeds only reveals our inner most self as evil.  Humans have a defiled spirit due to what Adam did in Eden.  All humanity are now children of the devil.  GOD created Adam and Eve spiritually neutral neither good or evil having no knowledge of either one.  At that time they were GODS children but once Adam sinned we all became children of the devil.  Will you judge and accuse GOD oh child of the devil ?  

Another spiritual principle; whoever you render your self a servant to obey you are the servant of the one you obey whether of sin to death or obedience to righteousness.  Romans 6:16  John 8:38

Adam rendered himself a servant of Satan because he obeyed Satan.  If you were to study how GOD bent over backwards with excess of mercy and love for humanity yet time after time they basically spit in HIS face.  Punishment seems cruel to the one receiving it and apparently to some who have read scriptures about it.  They set themselves up as a judge of GOD.  BE CAREFUL AS YOU KNOW NOTHING WHEREAS GOD IS OMNISCIENT.

You make yourself like Job who was righteous in his own eyes and had to be taught a valuable lesson which was, “I have heard about you by the hearing of the ears but now my eyes have seen you” ,  Job repented in dust and ashes, will you.  

Woe to the man who strives with his maker. Isaiah 45:9   Romans 9:20,21 Daniel 4:35   GOD has built the house and has every right to burn it down if HE so desires.  Many stories are told in the old covenant that contain violence and death.  If GOD decided to recall HIS breath of life and all life on earth died it would be HIS right to do so.  Job 34:10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17   Does GOD take pleasure in the deaths of wicked people ?  Ezekiel 33:11,12   

The law teaches us that sin will bring punishment and that punishment is death,  that all humans are sinners and deserve to die forever.  If not for Christ this would have been the destiny of humanity.  This is what Adam did to us all and the downward spiral into the depths of darkness was the result in the generations that followed.  Humanity has given GOD every reason for GOD to destroy us all but HE is going to let us bring our own selves to this point in the future because if HE did not intervene and send Christ back we would exterminate ourselves. Matthew 24:22   

When reading the Old Testament don’t be like the child that receives a sound spanking from their father and then the child says I hate you.  Hebrews 12:9 

Scripture says the law was a schoolmaster, it has things to teach us , but if we think it has no value then we never learn .  Galatians 3:24

In this brief article I hope, if it is GODS will , that HE would open your mind to understand how great HE is and how nothing we are. 

DEFINING MONOTHEISM

  

 

Hebrews 3:4

 4 For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.

 

Strong's Lexicon

theos: God, god

Original Word: θεός
Part of Speech: Noun, Feminine; Noun, Masculine
Transliteration: theos
Pronunciation: theh-os'
Phonetic Spelling: (theh'-os)
Definition: God, god
Meaning: (a) God, (b) a god, generally.

Word Origin: Derived from a root word meaning "to place" or "to set," indicating a being of authority and power.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - H430: אֱלֹהִים (Elohim) - Often used to refer to God in the Hebrew Bible.

- H410: אֵל (El) - A shorter form used for God, emphasizing might and power.

- H3068: יְהוָה (YHWH) - The personal name of God, often rendered as "LORD" in English translations.

Usage: In the New Testament, "theos" primarily refers to the one true God, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe, as revealed in the Christian faith. It is used to denote the divine nature and attributes of God, including His omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence. "Theos" can also refer to false gods or deities in a polytheistic context, but in the Christian Scriptures, it predominantly signifies the God of Israel, the Father of Jesus Christ.

Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, "theos" was a common term used to describe various gods and deities within the pantheon of Greek and Roman mythology. However, in the context of the New Testament, "theos" is redefined to express the monotheistic belief in one sovereign God. This understanding was revolutionary in a polytheistic society and was central to the early Christian proclamation of the gospel.

HELPS Word-studies

2316 theós (of unknown origin) – properly, God, the Creator and owner of all things (Jn 1:3; Gen 1 - 3).

[Long before the NT was written, 2316 (theós) referred to the supreme being who owns and sustains all things.]

   

To think of Jesus as GOD ALMIGHTY THE CREATOR presents us with very serious problems in how we would have to view other scriptures.  Below are some examples of this.

1 Corinthians 8:6  “yet for us there is but two GODS, the FATHER and Jesus Christ who created all things.

John 17:3 “And this is everlasting life, that they may know us the only true GODS.

Ephesians 4:6 “two gods and Father of all”

Deuteronomy 6:4 “Hear oh Israel, the lords our gods,  the lords are two”

1 Timothy 2:5 “For there are two gods, and one mediator between god and men, the god Jesus Christ”

James 2:19 “You believe that god is two, good for you. Even the demons believe that and tremble”

There are many more scriptures that you could do this with and it shows how the Jesus is GOD lie is polytheism. 

POLYTHEISM:

Dictionary

Definitions from Oxford Languages 

pol·y·the·ism

/ˈpälēTHēˌiz(ə)m,ˌpälēˈTHēiz(ə)m/

noun

noun: polytheism

1. the belief in or worship of more than one god.

    

    

    So then we must understand that who or what we associate with is either good or evil. Ploytheism is a belief Christians are to not involve ourselves with.  It is impossible to have more than one person or entity that is almighty.  If you were almighty there would be no other like you and if there were you would no longer be almighty if another was too.  The same logic applies to having all knowledge or being present everywhere at all times.  It is a contradiction in terms as the term "Almighty" is unique.  Therefore belief in a trinity or binary GOD is completely against logic and reason.  

There is one GOD, the FATHER,  1 Corinthians 8:6  (first part)  James 2:19  John 17:3  Isaiah 43:10  and many other verses of scripture plainly declare there is only one being who is GOD.

 

ORIGINAL SIN ?

Both Adam and Eve were created spiritually neutral or spiritual blanks that needed additional growth. Neither one of them had the knowledge of good and evil which is what is required in order to sin. James 4:17 This growth would be in the choice Adam would make between two trees. The tree of life would have given immortality but also the Holy Spirit without ever committing sin. Adam and Eve would also gain knowledge but with the Holy Spirit the power in their lives to never sin as they would have had the divine nature of GOD and would always do good and never evil. Even their thoughts would be pure agape completely righteous. In other words they would have been what the second Adam ,Jesus Christ was . In Jeremiah 18:3,4 the flawed vessel was Adam and the second vessel is Jesus. This is related to Romans 9:20,21 Isaiah 64:8 2 Timothy 2:20,21 Isaiah 45:9 Isaiah 29:16 2 Corinthians 4:7 The symbolism of the potter and the clay contains much spiritual significance. Adam became marred in the hand of the potter and we all are marred as a result of his sin. The serpent went after Eve planning to use her to get to Adam. GOD had already warned Adam about the forbidden fruit. After Eves deception kicked in she offered her husband the forbidden fruit and Adam knowingly and willingly ate it to please his wife, showing that Adam loved his wife more than his GOD. The eating of the forbidden fruit by Adam opened the eyes of understanding good and evil in both of them. Yes they now had the knowledge to sin and without the Holy Spirit would add to their sin of disobedience and they lost the hope or opportunity for immortality because GOD sealed off the tree of life from them showing that GOD will not allow a sinner to live forever. 1 John 3:15
This became the time that Jesus became the slaughtered lamb. Jesus became the tree of life, his body and blood must be eaten to have the hope of immortality again that his sacrifice would provide. John 6:53 You see Christ, the second Adam gives humanity the same choice Adam had ; agape GOD above all else and agape your neighbor, the law that came afterwards was to be a teacher that would lead us to Christ and for those who learn it’s lessons they are drawn by the FATHER to HIS son. Galatians 3:24  They are called Christians and have eaten of the fruit of life. They have embarked on a way empowered by the spirit of GOD that leads to the kingdom of GOD in which they receive immortality and impeccability.
This is why I call the Christ event Genesis 2 . Genesis 1 was the shadow event but Genesis 2 a great light. Genesis 1 was symbolism but Genesis 2 is substance. Genesis 1 was law but Genesis 2 is grace. Genesis 1 explains the problem and Genesis 2 is the answer.

PRE-ADAMIC THEORY

 

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Creation of Adamin the Sistine Chapel

The pre-Adamite hypothesis or pre-Adamism is the theological belief that humans (or intelligent yet non-human creatures) existed before the biblical character Adam. Pre-Adamism is therefore distinct from the conventional Abrahamic belief that Adam was the first human. "Pre-Adamite" is used as a term, both for those humans (or human-like animals) believed to exist before Adam, and for believers or proponents of this hypothesis.

Early development​

The first known debate about human antiquity took place in 170 AD between a Christian, Theophilus of Antioch, and an Egyptian pagan, Apollonius the Egyptian (probably Apollonius Dyscolus), who argued that the world was 153,075 years old

An early challenge to biblical Adamism came from the Roman Emperor Julian the Apostate, who, upon his rejection of Christianity and his return to paganism, accepted the idea that many pairs of original people had been created, a belief termed co-Adamism or multiple Adamism.

Augustine of Hippo's The City of God contains two chapters indicating a debate between Christians and pagans over human origins: Book XII, chapter 10 is titled Of the falseness of the history that the world hath continued many thousand years and the title of book XVIII, chapter 40 is The Egyptians' abominable lyings, to claim their wisdom the age of 100,000 years. These titles tend to indicate that Augustine saw pagan ideas concerning both the history of the world and the chronology of the human race as incompatible with the Genesis creation narrative. Augustine's explanation aligned with most rabbis, and with the church fathers, who generally dismissed views on the antiquity of the world as "myths and fables", whereas Jewish and Christian claims were based on "revealed truth".

Augustine did take a critical view of the young earth narrative in some aspects, arguing that everything in the universe had been created simultaneously by God, and not seven literal days. He was primarily concerned with arguing against the idea of humanity having existed eternally rather than a Bible-based chronology of human history. 

 

MY COMMENT

Above is a brief record of certain scholars about the existence of pre-Adamic man. As far as I am aware the bible is silent about this subject. The question arises, where do the skeletons of human beings come from that are carbon dated to many millions of years ago ? Before the fourth day of creation week there was no such thing as time. It was on the fourth day that all the heavenly objects that we use to measure time were created therefore before this there was no time. So then from day 1 to the end of day 3 could have been millions or billions of years. When reading Genesis 1 take careful note that earth was already in existence just in a state of darkness and formlessness, something had to have happened to do this. When GOD creates He always states it is very good but earth in Genesis 1:2 was not good. It may have been the earth was severely damaged by the angelic rebellion led by Satan and what we read in Genesis is GOD repairing the damage and preparing it for humans. It could be surmised that a creature existed before Genesis that was on earth at the time it was the first estate of the angels. Jude 1:6 This pre-adamic man was destroyed along with other pre-historic creatures that existed at that time. Today archaeologists dig up the bones of all these pre-historic creatures but spiritually do not understand their origin.
All of this is pure speculation as are all the theories about this subject. We will just have to wait until we are born into the kingdom for the answer.

LOOKS ARE DECEIVING

 The Christianity you see in this world is not genuine, it is fake, it is carnal thinking and mimicking of things they read in the Bible.  Because they do not have the Holy Spirit they are left to their own unconverted carnal minds.  They attempt to copy cat what they see in the scriptures and apply carnal thinking to them and they are always wrong , they are ever learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.  These people have always far outnumbered the true elect saints of GOD and in this current evil world have held the upper hand.  The result of this is spiritual confusion on a grand scale.  False doctrines, churches and ministers have completely taken over the carnal world.  This is just what the prophets, Jesus and the Apostles warned about.  All this deception reaches a climax in the latter days under the rule of the antichrist.  These false Christians are in reality the evil children of the devil.  They have no truth or understanding in any spiritual thing.  They have swallowed the lies of Satan hook line and sinker.  The true elect of GOD have observed all of this since the days of the Apostles till today.  Everyone of these elect saints were before their conversion just like them but for reasons only known to GOD, GOD has called and chosen out of this evil system a people for HIS own name.  GOD did give HIS spirit to these elect saints but the vast majority of the world remains in ignorance and condemned to death not even knowing that in the future GOD has a plan for them too.  

Everything these false churches teach is a lie.  GOD , in eternity knew that this would happen and prophesied through Ezekiel how HE would deal with it.  The removal of all human shepherds or ministers from the true church would effectively eliminate any possibility of deception.  GOD would teach HIS people through the mediator Jesus.  This would be done after the same fashion as with the prophets, Jesus and the Apostles by revelation .  Since the first century until this day GOD has no human ministers.  This fact becomes a sign, a way of identifying the false Christians from the true Christians.  Any church having human ministers is deceived.  

Here on this blog I have written many articles about this deception and have exposed the lies they teach.  

I do not write to the world but to the remnant church,  those who hopefully will be alive and remaining at the return of Christ.  The carnal world has no idea of the existence of GODS elect saints.  

GOD has very good reasons for what HE has done and they are recorded in scripture but to understand a person must have HIS spirit. How much longer this world will continue is not known to anyone but GOD.  If HIS Saints keep watching for the signs Jesus gave they can know when it is near.  

THE COMING WARNING TO THE CHURCH OF LAODICEA

Beginning in Revelation 3:14-22 is a warning from Christ to the church of Laodicea.  This is not addressing the ancient city that is now part of Turkey.  The message is for a group of Christians that will exist in the latter days that are not dedicated totally to the spirit of GOD and have drifted back into the world.  They exist at the same time as the Philadelphia church which is the truly dedicated church composed of the remnant of the elect 144,000.  The warning to the Laodiceans is Revelation 3:17,18,19  verse 18 is the punishment for their complacency.  Gold tried in the fire is the fire of the great tribulation that will test all people who dwell on the earth.  Revelation 3:10 assures the Philadelphia church protection from this hour of trial by fire.  However, before the great tribulation there will be a false tribulation that both churches experience and this will be sort of a wake up call to the Laodiceans as Revelation 3:19,20,21 refers to the same door that has been used by the Philadelphia church if the Laodiceans repent and overcome their difficulties.  If the Laodiceans do not hear what the spirit is saying to them then they must suffer martyrdom in the great tribulation and for those who are willing to give their life literally, Revelation 12:11  Revelation 14:12,13  The martyred Laodiceans will be in the first resurrection with the elect saints of Philadelphia.  Revelation 7:14   The 144,000 are not the Laodiceans but the elect who are sealed in their foreheads (spirits) before the tribulation begins.  The martyred Laodiceans are the innumerable multitude.  This information gives us a better understanding of GODS love and mercy for even backsliders. GOD will indeed go to the uttermost to save.  Hebrews 7:25  Revelation 3:19 

To all the elect of GOD who may be reading these words I implore you to not become a Laodicean.  Strive to be a faithful Philadelphian.  That no man takes your crown.

CONSIDER PRECIOUS METALS

 Gold has had value for over 5,000 years.  The paper money you have , regardless of what nation you live in and the currency they use,  paper money is called fiat currency, that is money backed by nothing that can be printed on a printing press in huge amounts.  Some use the reasoning that this fiat money is backed by the full faith and credit of the nation that prints it.  If a nation prints too much of its money it will cause inflation and lessen the purchasing power of its currency.  This is why nations are in debt today.  Rather than follow sound economic principles the world has for the most part adopted the Keynesian theory of economics, a system reliant upon debt and credit that depends on consumer spending to drive an economy.  This Keynesian system is used in the United States and the result has been almost 38 trillion dollars of debt.  Other nations have followed the U.S. down the same road and have tremendous debt as well.  

If you are able to do so purchase some gold but if gold is too expensive for you then consider buying silver at about $35.00 a Troy ounce.  Precious metals have always been protection from crashing economies.  Never has gold or silver been worth zero.  There is a brief time in the future when gold and silver may be worth zero but it should not last long.  I have told you about a false tribulation that is coming and it will last a brief time because the antichrist will bring the world back from economic collapse, I call the false tribulation, and produce a false millennium where people will be rich and increased with goods having need of nothing for about 3 years but then comes the real tribulation and then everything everywhere will collapse.  Therefore, if you own some precious metals now before the false tribulation comes once the world enters the false millennium you will be in good financial condition.  We can prepare for what is coming up to the point where the great tribulation begins but when it does begin all bets are off.  There will be the most horrific times mankind will ever experience. Just being alive will be all that you have.  The elect saints are protected from this hour of trial that will grip the entire world.  Revelation 3:10   The carnal population will suffer greatly.  

Also, before the false tribulation begins, you should be stock piling non perishable food items like canned goods and dry goods, have a source of water, essential items like medicines and hygiene products. 

Do not get into any new debt and use the money GOD gives you wisely.   Don’t even attempt to cover every possible issue that may come just provide for the necessities of life.  With the current turmoil in the world agreeing with the signs Jesus gave us we step out on faith believing his words.  The motto of the saints is, we do what we can and depend upon GOD for what we can’t.  

DO NOT BECOME A FOOL OR USEFUL IDIOT

 The U.S. constitution under article 1, article 2 and article 3 established a separation of power that is distributed between the three branches of the federal government; the legislature or congress, the executive or President and the judicial or the Supreme Court.  Under no circumstances are these three branches to assume any power granted to one of the other branches.  Over the years since the founding fathers gave the U.S. its constitution the elected officials of all three branches have violated these provisions of the constitution.  Currently several democrat left leaning federal district judges are violating the constitution by issuing orders to prevent President Donald Trump from conducting the executive branch, that he is the head of,  from Carrying out the orders that under the constitution he is responsible for.  This amounts to the judicial branch intruding into the executive branch, which the constitution forbids.  The only way the judiciary is constitutionally able to intervene in the affairs of either of the other two branches is to rule an action by them as unconstitutional.  Since what Trump is doing falls under the duties required of him by the constitution these federal district judges have no authority to issue stays, that is a command to stop action, against the president.  Issuing a stay on the executive branch should only be exercised by the Supreme Court not by the lower courts.  It is very obvious that these rogue judges have a political motive for their actions as all of them that have issued stays are left leaning democrats.  These judges know what they’re doing and know it is unconstitutional but are driven by Trump derangement syndrome, a hatred of Trump the person, not Trump the president.  All the violence you see is coming from the left wing democrats and is egged on by the leftist media and politicians to include Elon Musk along with President Trump.  There has been absolutely no evidence to any of the claims that they have made against these men.  The democrats have no plan of their own to address our problems and no party leader. The violence we have seen will only escalate if they are not punished quickly but these leftists use the constitution to hide behind by incorrectly claiming it supports their behavior.  The true motive behind all this is the anger and disillusionment by democrats of losing the 2024 election and with it power and wealth gained by fraudulent means.  The party called democrat today is nothing like the party was in the days of Truman or Kennedy but has morphed into socialism and communism seeking ultimate political power and wealth.  What is and has happened in the last 23 years from Bill Clinton to Obama and Biden has been an ever increasing attack on the nation and everything that it was founded upon.  

To arrive at a correct conclusion on anything one must hear both sides otherwise you operate blindly by only knowing part and not the whole, and when one does this they become fools and useful idiots of whoever they submit to.  Don’t be a fool or useful idiot, hear out a matter before you act, Proverbs 18:13  Proverbs 29:20  James 1:19   John 7:51  Proverbs 17:27,28   

THE STATE OF THE WORLD TODAY

 I do not have a degree in economics.  What I do have is about 40 years of experience in the economics of running a household budget and 17 years of running a business.  To have done both of these things successfully I had to have the smarts, the intelligence, to balance budgets or make a profit.  I have done this for a combined 57 years but our Federal, State and local governments have either only done so on rare occasions or not at all.  Governments spend other peoples money but I was spending my own money and that is the big difference.  When spending other peoples money you spend irresponsibly but when it’s your money you had better spend it wisely.  This is why most all of government; federal, state and local is in debt and has burdened the people with high taxes. 

If you have been watching the news you know about DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, that has found thus far many billions of dollars wasted on some of the most stupid things you ever heard of.  I live in Pennsylvania and several years ago the state capital in Harrisburg went bankrupt along with some counties and municipalities.  The county was already at the legal maximum in taxation and went to court to get approval to raise taxes.  The court granted their request and the county hired an appraiser from New York for 1 million dollars to reassess all property in the county.  As an example of the results my property taxes quadrupled.  This created an extreme hardship for the retired elderly people on a fixed income.  This was true in many PA counties. The answer, the state legislature created a tax and rent rebate program that paid a rebate to elderly people of up to 50% of their total tax.  The cost of creating this new state program in my view was a waste because a general 50% tax forgiveness plan would not require paying a staff , office supplies, computers and office space for employees who receive benefits .  It seems that governments always want to expand the bureaucracy rather than use simple logic.  

President Trump has placed tariffs on almost every nation on Earth.  Even though they are reciprocal and amendable the true motive behind them is to have free trade without tariffs or give incentives for businesses to relocate to the U.S. and hire U.S. workers.  The stock market lost almost 4,000 points in the two days after the tariffs went into effect.  In order for Trumps plan to work he must have important legislation pass congress but his “ big beautiful bill” is meeting with opposition from both republicans and democrats.  For Trumps plan to have any hope of success he needs to have all his ducks in a row.  The increase in the cost of products to the consumer due to the tariffs must be offset buy lower federal taxes, no tax on tips, overtime and social security benefits.  Then if overseas businesses come to the U.S. time will be required for them to find or build a factory , hire and train workers and establish a supply chain .  The results of all this may not be seen for several years. 

President Trumps plan has merit but is extremely risky because to carry it out involves step by step actions that must happen.   If he can’t get his big beautiful bill passed there will be no help to the consumer to deal with increased prices due to tariffs.

Trump plans to negotiate the tariffs with the nations to either reciprocal or eliminating them altogether.  Trump wants to encourage foreign based companies to come to the U.S. build, hire and produce their products here.  To get all of this to play out will be a great challenge.  If Trump fails it will lead to the greatest economic depression the world has ever seen.  Many economists set the odds of Trump being successful at 50% so its even money so to speak. 

This is not just a U.S. problem, it is worldwide because if the U.S. goes down we will drag all nations with us.  The purse strings of the global economy are all tied together, all nations have printed their currencies into oblivion and other problems like wars, collapsed morality, no respect for law and order, racial issues, corrupt governments and leaders in them all contribute to the state of the world today.  

THE TRUE FIRST BORN

Jesus was the first born, the only begotten son of the most high GOD by the power of the FATHERS spirit overshadowing Mary.  This event while different than the normal physical act of procreation was testified to by the symbolism of all those patriarchs that came before.

In Hebrews chapter 11, the faith chapter, it lists some by name and others by a group but all having the faith of the truth of GOD. These ancient saints understood what the saints understand today.  They were Christians having the Holy Spirit.  

It is interesting that none of these ancient Christians were in their line of descent the first born.  Able was the second son of Adam, Abraham was the third son of Nahor, Jacob was the youngest, Joseph was the next younger to Benjamin, David was the youngest son of Jesse, Solomon was not the eldest son of David. Now Rehoboam was the eldest son of Solomon but the kingdom of Israel was taken from him and eventually Judah was lost as well thus indicating that no first born of men was fit in GODS eyes. So then all of once was Israel was now gone and even afterwards the first born of the kings never happened because the line was broken , Judah went into captivity and the breach never healed.  

Jesus became in prophecy the future heir to the throne of Israel and of creation.  Jesus was of the kingly tribe, Judah , but not of the priestly tribe of Levi.  Jesus was a priest according to the order of Melchizedek, a priest who lived in Abrahams day, long before Israel or Judah existed.  Melchizedek was both a king and a priest of the most high GOD.  Melchizedeks priesthood did not observe circumcision or the law of Moses. Does all this sound familiar to any of you readers?  Melchizedek had the Holy Spirit and blessed Abraham for defeating the kings under Chedorloamer .  

It is a fact the scriptures reveal that grace, the new covenant, existed long before the law was given to Moses.  It is therefore a fact that all these ancient people that had the Holy Spirit were Christians as they all believed in a future messiah and understood the message of the gospel.  They will be the ancient elect of GOD included in the total number of the elect, 144000.  They will be in the first resurrection with the saints during and after Christ.  None of them were the first born but believed in the one who was the firstborn.  If you understand the symbolism of the carnal feast days of ancient Israel concerning the day of Pentecost you will see how these ancient saints are included in the elect 144000.  

Leviticus 23:17 instructed the carnal Israelites to bake two loaves of bread baked with leaven. These two loaves symbolized the ancient saints and the modern, that is those before and after Christ.  They are called, “The first fruits of GOD”. Revelation 14:4   Leviticus 23:17  These two loaves together are the complete church, one of the measures of meal that Jesus mentioned in a parable about the kingdom of GOD.

Matthew 13:33 “The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it was all leavened.”

Each measure of meal produced a leavened loaf of bread. One loaf represented the church composed of both ancient and modern elect saints to total in the end time to 144000. The next loaf would be the people of the millennium and the third the people of the second resurrection.  These are the three measures of meal.  The leaven in all three symbolizes being leavened  with the Holy Spirit.  

All of these elect saints were and are in Jesus Christ, the first born of them all spiritually speaking.  In the days of the ancient saints baptism was not practiced due to Christ not yet being the messiah but they practiced circumcision symbolizing that through human reproduction a woman would be born whose son would be the son of GOD.  Isaiah 7:14  This practice of circumcision ended with Christ and was replaced with baptism and in order to have baptism apply to those ancient saints Jesus was baptized for them.  Romans 15:8  Matthew 3:15  righteousness is imputed to all the saints because of our faith and these ancient saints certainly had faith therefore in order to fulfill the righteousness imputed to these ancient saints Jesus, the one they all had faith in, was baptized to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs.  The true first born son of the most high GOD was the only one who could do this.

WILL THE REAL CREATOR PLEASE STAND UP

 If you are talking to your two or three year old child would you talk to them on an adult level ?  Adults must come down to the level of the child in order to communicate with the child.  The higher being must always come down to the level of the lower being in order to have communication. This is how GOD communicates with us.  The scriptures are full of of this method.  GOD speaks to us using physical metaphors, that is speech that describes things by comparing them to something familiar to the lower beings, humanity.  Physical things like money, sheep and shepherds, light and darkness, agricultural terms like crops, seeds, soil and water. 

Christ used these things in his parables but the understanding of the proper application of these metaphors to gain spiritual understanding was only possible if the person hearing had the holy spirit.  Matthew 13:10,11,12,13   It was only given to the church to understand the parables, that the knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of GOD were hidden from unconverted people.

When the Apostles and others wrote the new covenant scriptures they used this method to varying degrees some more than others.  With this in mind I would like to examine John 1:1,2,3,4,5

Here is the most used translation of John 1:1-5

1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2He was with God in the beginning. 3Through Him all things were made, and without Him nothing was made that has been made. 4In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. 5The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome  it.

Take notice that the male pronouns "he" and "him" are used.  These pronouns were used by the translator to give the idea that the he and him were referring to Jesus and in  John 1:14 this idea seems to be confirmed.

14 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us.  We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son  from the Father, full of grace and truth. 

Here is what John 1:1-5 is really saying.

In the beginning GOD the FATHER, the creator, spoke all things into existence. It, the word, was with GOD and was GODS word.  Because of GODS word all things were made, created, and without GOD speaking the word nothing that was created would have been created.  In GODS word was life and that life was the light of men.  The light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it.

1 Corinthians 8:6  confirms that GOD the FATHER, "from whom all things came and for whom we live", is the creator.  The rest of the verse gives a false impression that Jesus is the creator by using the word "through" however Strongs article G1223 is below.

through
δι’ (di’)

Strong's Lexicon

dia: through, by, because of, for the sake of

Original Word: διά
Part of Speech: Preposition
Transliteration: dia
Pronunciation: dee-ah'
Phonetic Spelling: (dee-ah')
Definition: through, by, because of, for the sake of
Meaning: (a) gen: through, throughout, by the instrumentality of, (b) acc: through, on account of, by reason of, for the sake of, because of.

Word Origin: A primary preposition denoting the channel of an act

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often used in similar contexts is בְּ (bĕ), Strong's Hebrew 1157, which can mean "in," "by," or "through."

Usage: The Greek preposition "διά" (dia) is used to express the means or instrumentality by which an action is performed. It often indicates causation or reason, such as "because of" or "for the sake of." In the New Testament, it frequently appears in contexts that describe the means by which God accomplishes His purposes, the agency of Christ in salvation, or the reason for human actions.

 

 

The first part of 1 Corinthians 8:6 confirms the FATHER as creator and is highlighted in blue.  The second part of the verse seems to say Jesus was the creator highlighted in red. The word "through" is a bad translation because you cannot have two creators.  "Through" should be , "because of or for the sake of" and this because Jesus is the heir of all things GOD the FATHER created. Jesus cannot be his own Heir.

 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we exist. And there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we exist. 

Hebrews 1:2 confirms again that Jesus is the heir not the creator but makes the same error as 1 Corinthians 8:6 by using the word "through".

2 in these last days He has spoken to us by His Son,  whom He appointed heir of all things, and through whom He made the universe. 

 The reason the FATHER created the universe was to give it to HIS son ,  this word "through" creates a contradiction because in these verses the FATHER is confirmed as the creator but also says Jesus is, that is an obvious contradiction. Scripture cannot contradict itself.

The truth is that the FATHER is the creator and Jesus is HIS heir, that the FATHER created all things, seen and unseen, the universe for, because of, for the sake of, HIS son.  This makes spiritual sense and we the saints share in the inheritance of Jesus.
