Shabbat Shalom!


The last Christian(s) standing?

I'm so saddened with how many "christians" claim they trust Yahweh yet they are now going to vote for Trump because "they need to do something to keep Hillary from being elected".    When asked 'what if Hillary is Yahweh's plan for president' they hem and haw and state such things like "I'm nothing and God is sovereign and will carry out His plan" and such things like "I prayed and [prayed and God told me to vote for Trump".  Statements such as these show lack of Trust in Yahweh to carry out His plan without "helping Him along".   Yahweh would never tell someone to vote for anyone who was not following Him.  Donald Trump may claim to be a Christian but his fruit is rotten and he is telling the dominionist fake "christians" whatever they want to hear.

In the bible, Yahweh often gave promises and often those given the promise tried to do things THEIR WAY instead of waiting for Yahweh's timing.  This is how Ishmael came into the world:  Abraham was promised a son and because he and Sarah were impatient and did not wait for Yahweh to fulfill the promise, Sarah gave Abraham her maid, Hagar, to have a son because they thought they needed to help Yahweh to fulfill His promise to Abraham.

The 12 sons of Jacob were each given promises.  Judah was promised the kingship and was the line of King David and Messiah Yeshua.

Genesis 49
8  Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.
9  Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
10  The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.


When Ancient Israel was in the promised land, they demanded a king long before Yahweh wanted to give them a king.  Yahweh told the prophet Samuel they did this not because of Samuel but because they had rejected Him.

1 Samuel 8
7  And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.
8  According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
9  Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
10  And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked of him a king.
11  And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
12  And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
13  And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
14  And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
15  And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
16  And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
17  He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.
18  And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the LORD will not hear you in that day.


Yahweh gave them the king they demanded - King Saul - who was not the prophesied king He had intended to give them - remember, Yahweh promised the king was to come from Judah and King Saul was from the tribe of Benjamin.

Yahweh has shown me this election is a test to see who is truly following Him and trusting Him and who are claiming to trust Him but will turn to their own devices when their faith and trust are challenged.

Deuteronomy 13
1  If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2  And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3  Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4  Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.


While the above passage is about following false prophets, it also applies to following someone who is not a Christian thinking that person will save them instead of trusting Yahweh to carry out His plan even if His plan does not correspond with their worldly desires.

In this very end of the end times, we are to be watching for Messiah Yeshua's return and trusting Him to carry out His plan that He reveals to us in scripture.  We are no to be looking back towards the world and how things used to be like Lot's wife did when she looked back to Sodom - she was punished for not trusting in Yahweh's word and was turned into a pillar of salt.

If Hillary is elected, Putin may strike the U.S. because he believes she is unstable and will carry out (possible nuclear) attacks against Russia as she has threatened.  If Trump is elected, obama may take down the U.S. to even further destroy it before he leaves office and may incite an attack by Russia, China, or North Korea either to bring down the U.S. or for a reason to stay in office.  Either way, the U.S. is toast unless Yahweh gives us a reprieve - and it is doubtful from what He did in the past that this is likely as most "christians" are placing their faith and trust in Trump instead of in Yahweh.

Yahweh's plan will be carried out regardless of who you vote for - and if you vote for someone who is not a follower of Messiah Yeshua / someone who may not be Yahweh's will for the U.S., then you are against Yahweh's plan and are showing you trust a man more than you do in Him.

Who should Christians vote for?

Matthew 6:24  No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. 

Many professing "christians" claim that "christians need to vote because we can't allow another four years of obama / clinton politics"   They are trusting in their own selves and the "power" of the "christian vote" to place people into office who THEY believe is "better" and the "right choice".  Most of these "christians" are dominionists or are influenced by the dominionists who believe they have to make the world "good enough" in order for Messiah Yeshua to return - yet many of these same dominionists have an opposing view that "christians" do not have to stop sinning to be saved - they teach against Torah and are anti-Torah.  One so called "christian pastor" claims the only "unforgivable sin" is OBEYING Torah and has deceivbe  millions.

1John 3:4  Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.

Messiah Yeshua said He will REJECT those so-called "christians" who claim to be doing things "for Him" if they do not obey the Torah:

Matthew 7
21  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
G458
Strong's number G458 iniquity (transliterated as anomia)   :
anomia
1) the condition of without law
     a) because ignorant of it
     b) because of violating it
2) contempt and violation of law, iniquity, wickedness
John14:15  If ye love me, keep my commandments.

John14:23  Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

John15:10  If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

1 John 2
3  And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4  He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

1 John 5
2  By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3  For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 


And for those left behind:

Revelation 14:12  Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Revelation 12:17  And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.


Those "christian" leaders who support donald trump for president are doing so because they believe "it is better than the alternative" as if they know Yahweh's plan and His will regarding the election.  Those who support hillary clinton have absolutely no discernment and are supporting someone who is obviously part of the antichrist system.

Remember, the church was behind hitler's rise to power and even though hitler lost the election, it was because of the church's backing that hitler was appointed chancellor and then rose to power when the elected president passed away (from age related issues)

Yahweh does NOT need the help of ANYONE to place someone into power and a political election may very well be a test by Yahweh just as false prophets are a test:

 Deuteronomy 13
1  If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2  And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3  Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
4  Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.


In the bible, Abraham was given a promise by Yahweh to have a son even though he and his wife, Sarah, had not been able to have any children.  Because Sarah was old and Yahweh's promise had not come to pass after years of waiting, Sarah gave Abraham Hagar in order to have a son with a surrogate thinking this had to have been Yahweh's plan.  The resulting son from Hagar was Ishmael and we are still dealing with Ishmael's descendants today (the arabs)  Yahweh DID give Abraham a son through Sarah 13 years later:  Isaac who both King David and Messiah Yeshua descended from.

This is the very end of the end times and Yahweh is not placing people into power to bless any nation; He is placing them into power to carry out His end times plan - the prophecies He gave to us in scripture.  Do not be deceived into believing america will become great again or any political leader will be america's savior - there is ONE Savior and His name is Yeshua, not donald.

Trust in Yahweh and His ability to place whoever HE chooses into office.  If you place your trust in a political candidate to save you, it is showing your lack of trust in Yahweh.  Even if donald trump is not elected, the support by so many dominionists / false "christians" may propel him into a power far greater than the presidency just as it did for hitler (or not - I do not know Yahweh's plans - I just see similarities between hitler and trump and the church's backing of both candidates and both running on a platform of making their country great again)

My vote?  I Trust Yahweh to place His person into office for His plans and His purposes.  I will not vote.

PROPHECY UPDATE: Isaiah 17, Ezekiel 38, and the very soon rapture

While I love bible prophecy and discussing it and current events and would have loved to have it as the topic of this blog, that is not what Yahweh had led me to write and so I have not posted much directly in the way of eschatology.  Yahweh led me to post this tonight.  Times are getting darker and time is getting shorter.  NOW is the time to repent and follow Messiah Yeshua because we do not have much time left and those left behind who have known the truth are in danger of being given the strong delusion and follow the antichrist.

Yahweh has moved all the players in place and the events of the very end times is about to happen.

Russia and the U.S. are in a proxy war in Syria and soon it will become a direct war.  The democrats in the US are accusing Russia of hacking into the democrat party's servers which Russia's president Putin denies.

When Secretary of State John Kerry has accused Russia and Syria of war crimes, I knew Putin would never stand for that - and I was right.  A source close to Putin said if Hillary Clinton is elected, Russia would start a nuclear war with the United States.  Russia has moved nuclear capable missiles along its border with Poland.  The last several years,  Poland has repeatedly asked  NATO for missile defense system along its border with Russia and Russia had repeatedly said to do so would be an act of war --- and so now there are nuclear capable missiles that can strike all of Germany and Poland (as well as the rest of Eastern Europe) along Poland's eastern border.

Late in september, Moscow, Russia had a nuclear war drill for its residents, it's bomb shelters for 14 million people were completed, and Germany told its people to stock up on food 'just in case'.  Two days ago Putin ordered its officials with family abroad to bring all of their families back to Russia - even if the students had to drop out mid-term.  Three of my Russian (exchange student) classmates at a college here in Wisconsin dropped out of school this past week and will shortly be heading back to Russia (if they have not left already)

Aleppo, Syria is just about totally destroyed and there is major tension between the forces in the mideast.  Today the USS Somerset amphibious dock ship began its maiden voyage heading towards the middle east with 375  U.S. Navy sailors  plus 700 U.S. Marines on board.  The Isaiah 17:1 prophecy about Damascus, Syria being totally destroyed appears to be on the brink of happening and I believe Ezekiel 38 will happen shortly after or concurrently with that happening.

From scripture, the righteous are taken away from what is to come and no one understands they were removed.  I believe this infers that the rapture may happen as the missiles are flying so nobody misses the righteous that were removed.  There will also be a strong delusion given to those who rejected Yeshua so they will not understand the truth.

Isaiah 57:1  The righteous perisheth H6, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
***
Micah 7
1  Woe is me! for I am as the last of the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage; there is no cluster to eat; nor first-ripe fig which my soul desireth.
2  The godly man is perished H6 out of the earth, and the upright among men is no more; they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
3  Their hands are upon that which is evil to do it diligently; the prince asketh, and the judge is ready for a reward; and the great man, he uttereth the evil desire of his soul; thus they weave it together.
4  The best of them is as a brier; the most upright is worse than a thorn hedge; the day of thy watchmen, even thy visitation, is come; now shall be their perplexity.
5  Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a familiar friend; keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.
6  For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
7  'But as for me, I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.
8  Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy; though I am fallen, I shall arise; though I sit in darkness, the LORD is a light unto me.
9  I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against Him; until He plead my cause, and execute judgment for me; He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold His righteousness.


Strongs H6 for perish means disappears / vanishes and by context is how it is used in Isaiah 57:1

2 Thessalonians 2
10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.


Here is my thinking about what is happening and the U.S. elections - just my thoughts based on what the bible says and the events we see happening around the world, not a prophecy :

If we make it to the elections next month, if Hillary gets elected, Putin will carry out his threat of attacking the U.S.  With wimpy obama, he has less to fear than if Hillary were in control of the buttons.  If Trump is elected, obama will carry out his destruction of the United States from within and will do something to provoke Putin into striking the U.S.  Putin may very well invade Israel knowing he has a better chance of succeeding (so he thinks) with obama in office rather than Trump.

Regardless of who wins the election, the United States is gone.  Yahweh used 9-11 as a wakeup call to the U.S. and gave us the chance for national repentance and, instead, then president Bush brought all religions together and stated 'we all worship the same god". 

Yahweh STILL gave this country seven more years for a chance to repent and when this nation became worse and apostasy set in, obama was given to this country as the president.  Now eight years later with so much apostasy and most churches and millions reprobate, Yahweh is about to destroy this once great nation.  The chance to repent as a nation is over and even if the nation begins to repent if it sees what is happening, there will be no reprieve just like there was no reprieve for Ancient Israel when they realized they made the wrong choice and tried to repent (one example is when they refused to listen to the two spies and believed the ten and did not trust Yahweh to fight for them and even after they tried to repent, they still had to wander for forty years in the wilderness)

I would not be surprised if the rapture happened before the election .  Even if it doesn't, it will happen very, very soon as we are now in that time where we know it is very close.  Nobody knows the day or the hour (except, as I joke, the rapture will be between 2AM and 3AM --- I just don't know in which time zone!)  although we know it is going to be around this time.  Do not believe the evil servants that say we have a lot of time left- Messiah Yeshua warned of them - and be assured His return is very, very near.  Even if it isn't for a few weeks or a few months, you do not know which day will be your last so today is the day you need to be ready for eternity.

Messiah Yeshua and the adulterous woman

Many people have parroted made up additions about the adulterous woman adding to it what is not there,   First the passage:

John 8
1  Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.
2  And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.
3  And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,
4  They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.
5  Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?
6  This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.
7  So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.
8  And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.
9  And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.
10  When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?
11  She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.


Time after time when a bible "teacher" speaks on this parable, they make claims about it that are not in scripture and are not at all factual.  While the scribes and pharisees were trying to trap Yeshua, many "teachers" claim this was a made up account and there never was an act of adultery because, they state, "where is the man".  Instead of doing their own research, bible "teachers" continue parroting this like it is a fact and never go to the "bother" of doing their own research.

First - neither Yeshua or the woman said anything to indicate that this is a fabricated account.  Scripture clearly states that she was taken in adultery so this was not a false accusation against the woman.  

When Messiah Yeshua was crucified, the scribes and pharisees had to go through the roman court system to get Him crucified because  the Sanhedrin and the Jewish courts had no authority to carry out capital punishment.  Very likely the man was in jail awaiting his court appearance in the Roman court system or he was already stoned or crucified for his part in the adultery.  Women were handed over the the Jewish leaders to carry out the punishment according to Jewish law because they were not of any concern to the Romans and were not entitled to have a trial in accordance with roman law.

I get very irritated at all the so-called "pastors" and bible "teachers" who continue to parrot made up stories --- adding to scripture --- instead of doing their own studies and teaching what the bible actually says.  The false teachers and all their parrots cause people to doubt scriptures and believe in such things as the "mandela effect" when people believe the teachers and then someone points out that isn't what the bible says.  These people falsely believe the scripture changed when, in fact, they were taught made up fables and fairy tales and believed them to be true instead of reading their bibles and seeing what the bible really says about something.

These false "teachers" are gradually introducing more heresy and false teachings that are being blindly accepted by their followers and millions have become apostate.  Most of my "christian" friends from years ago I thought were following Messiah Yeshua are now apostate and are following wolves.  With all the warnings in scripture about apostasy and false teachers, those who truly love Messiah Yeshua and follow Him and His instructions and will continue to obey what scripture says no matter how many of their friends and family fall away. 

Scripture warns of the great apostasy we are in the middle of yet most ignore what scripture says and follow after the ear tickling wolves warned about throughout scripture.

2 Timothy 3
1  This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2  For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3  Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4  Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5  Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6  For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7  Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 4
3  For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4  And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5  But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.


Time to repent is NOW.  Time is extremely short and nobody knows if they will have a tomorrow.

Shabbat Shalom!

Sorry no recent posts.  Between school and work, I've been incredibly busy.  So glad Yahweh gave us the gift of Shabbat!  Will try to get a post up later tonight or before the end of Shabbat.  Also so glad the false prophets' fall "rapture season" is about over so people will watch for Yeshua's return instead of a date the false prophets conjure up.  Keep looking up - Yeshua will return at the appointed time  - it may be today, tomorrow, next week - all we know is it will be one day very soon.  You may even be called to eternity before the rapture so repent now because later may be too late.
