Prophetic Warning of the Anti-Christ & the Days Ahead!

Transcribed by Sister Torres

 

            Steven Ben-Nun: Erev Tov Chaverim, I’m Steven Ben-Nun with DeNoon Institute of Biblical Research and I have something that the Lord has placed on my heart this morning. And I pondered this throughout the day and I’ve gone back I’ve looked at the Word of God and I’m just I have to just tell you I am troubled in my heart, in my soul for the condition of the Church of God. And seeing now it’s like the Lord let me see just flash by me the condition of the Church and what she’s in. When I say the Church I’m talking about those that are truly called out the believer’s that love the Lord and many of them keeping in mind many of these believers are trapped in different religious systems that are now going back to Rome that are joining back with the Vatican.

And what happened this morning we were talking; I was talking to my wife and my father-in-law and we were discussing about the technology that the governments are using there was a report on RT News and RT is trustworthy news it’s watched in the United States it’s on cable television there and they were reporting about some type of mysterious ring. And the Russian people believe that it was some type of military technology that’s interdimensional that the US that they have and that they’re able to use now. And I don’t even know if you guys are aware but recently in Washington, DC there was a blackout across Washington.

And from what we understand here in the East it was Russia that did some kind of attack on the system in Washington showing that they can block out; blackout their entire city grids and their computers and everything. And perhaps you guys are already aware of this but this is on our news right here in the East we’re able to see and I’m still in Europe so we were actually able to monitor this of course we have cable TV we can watch anything in the world pretty much or satellite. But we’re seeing this that this happen and it was Russia that did it. And we were discussing these things and I began to explain to my wife and my father-in-law said you know that ah; the very book that I have I don’t have it in the room right now but it’s the inside secrets of the Jesuits and what they’re taught in the Mason’s. And it says in the opening of the book there that if you; when they loan it to the person their training if you don’t return it they kill you.

And there was a wonderful brother that had somehow gotten ahold of this book and he gave this to me and I’ve learned so much. But one of the key things that they’re trying to discover the Jesuits have been trying to discover was the ancient secrets that were known in Egypt. That when Moses for example and Aaron when they were faced with the Priests of Pharaoh these Priests were able to do all kinds of great miracles and it is believed by the Jesuits that Egypt still, the Temple is actually there they have studied it for decades now trying to unlock those mysteries. And perhaps they have been unlocking those mysteries because some of the incredible things inter-dimensional weapons of some sort that they’re using now.

And of course we have no idea what all is there but as I was explaining to my father-in-law, my wife is that the showdown that’s coming with the 2 witnesses is going to be a tremendous showdown. I said you have to remember it’ll be just like they were when Moses came with Pharaoh and his; you know Moses throw his staff down on the ground and it turns to a serpent and of course so do the Priest of Pharaoh they’re able to turn theirs into a serpent and the Priest turn the water to blood just like Moses turned the water to blood.

Moses was faced with a group that was doing miracles but Moses believed in God that could do miracles far beyond anything that they could do. And God did, God finally showed that they could not keep up with it and even finally the Priest of Pharaoh said this is the Hand of Almighty God, this is not our gods we cannot do this. And then just all kinds of things we were discussing this and as we began to discuss this I shared with my wife and my father-in-law something.

 

Vision Saw Church in Bondage:

Something happened suddenly and I saw the Church and as I did I saw the Church in bondage. And it troubled me within side of myself and the Lord began to just unroll it before me and I said, oh my gosh I said you’re not going to believe this. But what I’m seeing right now is that you have to remember when Joseph was sold out by his brethren he goes down to Egypt he’s; we know he’s captive there but he rises up to the right hand of Pharaoh. He’s a perfect type of Christ in all of this; his brethren come he reveals himself to his brethren. It’s a joyous time and it’s a time during ah; dark time as well because they’re during a famine.

But then time moves on and as Joseph dies his brethren began to multiply in the land it’s just like when Christ came originally when Christ was here on the earth and the disciples began to believe and there was a great Jubilee because the Lord was here. And then the Lord died and He rose up from the dead but then He ascended up into Heaven and we began to multiply in the earth. But as that multiplying increased there as time went on He began to go away, we began to go away from the Word of God. The Church has drifted and we’ve had ever kind of Ism that you can imagine today. I mean all the different types of denominational views and teachings and ideologies and cults and whatever more has cropped up.

It is; and we can hardly find any place where we can say is this truth? We hold the Bible and even in the Bible we’re finding that man when they translated it into other languages they’re trying to manipulate it to fit their agenda. And I saw the Church, the believers, those that love the Lord and keep in mind people that love the Lord they may be messed up in a doctrinal view as well it doesn’t mean that they don’t love the Lord. Don’t be angry with your brother maybe because he doesn’t see something God has revealed to you.

But I saw that the believers and they had become what; they had become under bondage of Pharaoh. And this is what we see in the land today, you see Pharaoh; there rose a Pharaoh who did not know Joseph. Joseph was a representation of Christ! And he was a representation of the Gospel setting free, setting at liberty. But there rose up a Pharaoh that the memory of Joseph was no longer there hundreds of years had passed and we’re in the same condition today. Hundreds of years have passed and even though the Churches today claim to believe they know Yeshua and many people do I know that.

But there has raised up a man in a spiritual positions in the Vatican in Rome who does not know Yeshua. He does not know the power of Jesus Christ but I read their Jesuits books and they’re looking into Egyptian goddesses and the miracles of Egypt. And they’re looking into the Cabala they’re looking at these things to try to figure out how to do miracles (knocks on desks) that’s Jesuits of the Catholic Church. Not necessarily the individual lay people of the Catholic Church that know no more about it I mean look how many Catholic brothers and sisters do you have that listen to this ministry not to mention other that have come out and recognize Christ all over the world and everything. That have renounced Roman Catholicism and accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior!

But the Pope of Rome he doesn’t know Joseph, he doesn’t know Yeshua. And the thing is, is he set, Pharaoh set task masters over the Israelites and they became in bondage and they began to serve Pharaoh. And society is moving to a New World Order, to a One World Religion, on World System and they’re causing all of these ministers from different denominations and stuff coming back to Mother Rome. Tony Palmer, Bishop Tony Palmer really mysterious situation with him altogether but he’s spearheaded that. Kenneth Copeland joined up with it, great Movement go and meet the Pope, John Hagee joined in with it. Many other different other well-known evangelists all going back to Rome all kinds of preachers, the Lutheran’s, the Methodists what have you more Charismatic.

And all even when Pope Benedict when he was inaugurated they had world heads of the world Churches all coming up bowing down before him and expressing their allegiance to their Churches to Rome. When Pope Frances made it in all the European Church leader heads came and bowed down and expressed their loyalty to Rome! What are they doing? They’re putting the people under bondage and they’re appointing task masters over you to say this is the way it is.

How then, how is the Children of God going to be delivered then? When I began to look at this and then I began to think in my heart I’m like God I know that You said come out of her My people and be not partakers of her sins and her plagues. God says for you to come out so that you don’t partake of her sins neither her plagues. When are the plagues poured out upon Rome for being the task master over us? For being; the Pope of Rome being the Pharaoh of the earth, he’s God on earth according to what they’re own writings teach. He is a mediator between Christ and man is what they believe and yet in your evangelical teachings you know that that’s a lie there’s only one mediator and that’s the Man Christ Jesus!

So how can you put the Pope of Rome as a Vicar? How can you join up with such a system? You know I went back and I said wait a minute what is this then about the 2 witnesses? What are they doing? What happens here? And I read it again and there was given me a reed like unto a rod; Revelation 11 (verse 1); the angel stood saying rise and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth; that’s 3 and a half years. (Verse 4) These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. These have power to shut heaven that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. Plagues see there they smite the earth with all plagues as often as they will. They’re ministry is global and God says come out of her My people be not partakers of her sins and of her plagues, I’m just paraphrasing that one. My people; God’s people that is involved in this system and believe me it’s not just the Catholic Church He’s saying come out of. If your Church is joining; if you’re denominational system is joining in with Rome it comes to a place that God is calling you to come out because why? If the harlots go back to their mother then you will be partaker of the plague as well!

 

 

Remember when God had the Children of Israel in Egypt there when they were in Goshen God separated between the Children of God the Children of Israel there and the Egyptians there and the plagues fell upon Pharaoh and their people there but in Goshen the plagues didn’t come, the cattle didn’t die the people didn’t die. Come out of her My people and be not partakers of her sins and of her plagues. So does this perhaps suggest to us that the Church actually sees the 2 witnesses and their ministry? Could it be that that Rapture doesn’t happen necessarily before this happens? Could it be that when we talk about the dead in Christ shall rise first that that is actually speaking of the death of the 2 witnesses and we which remain and alive it’s just a thought?

It says in verse 7 and when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them. And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified. And they of the people and kindred’s and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves. The whole world watches the event!

(Verse 10) And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry; not the remnant! And shall send gift’s one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth. And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.  And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them. And the same hour was there a great earthquake.

Now my point that I’m saying to you in this here when Israel was in bondage, after this 400 years and Pharaoh didn’t know Joseph God sent deliverance to bring them out! Now notice the scripture says in the Book of Exodus I think its 12:38 and a mix multitude went also up with them and flocks and herds and very much cattle went. When they were exiting Egypt, a mix multitude both Jew and Gentile went up.

I want to share with you something else and I went back to look at this because I’m thinking to myself you know Moses was faced with an army. He was faced him and Aaron with an army of chariots and swords and not just an army of chariots and swords but also with Priests that could do miracles just the same as Moses and Aaron could up to a point. Do you realize if Moses and Elijah are to return in this day and God is to use them, and I say Moses and Elijah because even on Mount of Transfiguration see God is a witness to you who the two olive trees that are standing on either side of the Golden Lampstand where they’re standing on either side of Yeshua. It’s another proof of who they are not to mention the miracles that they do Elijah and Moses miracles repeated again. And I know the argument about they say well you know Moses ah; he died he doesn’t have come back but Elijah and Enoch ah; that doesn’t make sense to me not; it’s appointed to man once to die. Then what about the people that never see death, the Bible says there’ll be those that’ll be alive and remain and shall not see death when do they come back and die? They don’t so it doesn’t make sense to make that statement.

But at any point I began to look at what God said to Moses here in Exodus chapter 34 and verse 10 and I want to share that with you again. And let me just back up a little bit and I’m reading from a Jewish Bible here. So let me just bear with me, and Moses made haste and bowed, let me back up a little bit further here verse 5 and the Lord descended in the cloud, and stood with him there, and proclaimed the name of the Lord.

He’s going back up Mount Sinai in this particular case here. And God told him to come up and he would proclaim His Name, He would hide Moses in the cleft of the rock, He would come by and He would proclaim His Name. That’s interesting in itself because Moses asked the question ah; when he first is commissioned of God; he said they will ask me; Ma sha mo, what is His Name? He says what do I tell them? And God says to Moses tell them; (Hebrew) Ehyeh asher Ehyeh, I Am that I Am; or I will be that which I Am has sent thee to you; sent you to them. But you know they never asked Moses what His Name was but God knows they’re going too.

So in this case here God is giving him; He’s showing him because we know by what is that? Obadiah I believe it is or no Zephaniah that God says to the people; wait ye upon Me for I Am determined to rise up to the prey; just paraphrasing; and I will restore to the people a pure language where they can call upon the Name of Yod Hei Vav Hei. That’s God’s divine Name people call it Yahweh that’s not correct. Well see God proclaims that Name to Moses so he knows how to say it. And when Moses returns the fulfilment of what he said to God they will ask me what Your Name is will be fulfilled; that prophecy will be fulfilled at the time of His Second Advent on earth. So God declares the Name here.

(Verse 6) and the Lord passed by before him, and proclaimed; you know; the Lord, The Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,  (Verse 7) Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. And Moses made haste, and bowed his head toward the earth, and worshipped.

(Verse 9) and he said, If now I have found grace in thy sight, O Lord, let my Lord, I pray thee, go among us; for it is a stiff-necked people; and pardon our iniquity and our sin, and take us for thine inheritance. Watch what God says to Moses; (Verse 10) (Hebrew) waYomer; and He said; behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do wonders; (Hebrew) hiNëh änokhiy Korët B’riyt neged Käl–aM’khä eéseh nif’läo, wonders; not marvels wonders, incredible things as He did; like He did with Moses when he went down to Egypt and he; all the plagues that they brought on and the parting of the Red Sea. Now God is here; this is all past and He says to him; you know before thy people I will do marvels or wonders such as have not been wrote or done; and this word here is actually done; in all the earth; something’s about to happen greater; nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the Lord; and notice that right there and all the people among which you are shall see the work of the Lord; what people? Why didn’t he say all the people of the Children of Israel shall see it? We see clearly that the whole world sees in Revelation 11 they see these miracles because they even rejoice at their death.

(Exodus 34:10) and so he says all the people among which you are shall see the Word of the Lord; that I Am about to do with thee that it is tremendous. Now in King James it actually translates that word better let me pull that up for you. Exodus 34 and you guys I’m sure already have that though but verse 10; that last sentence it says here; for it is a terrible thing that I will do with you. And huh-uh; and it says here; (Hebrew) Kiy–nôrä hû ásher ániy oseh iMäkh’. Viy–nôrä; excuse me here that’s Kiy–nôrä there that’s the word; a terrible, when you Kiy–nôrä it is; that’s the word we use for evil. It is a judgement that will come. What will God do with the 2 witnesses?

It’s beginning to look like we; the 2 witnesses and that’s why I read to you Revelation 11 we assume that the 2 witnesses are only for the sake of Israel but it’s beginning to appear it’s not just for the sake of Israel. Because why? There was a mixed multitude that went out and today the Church is in bondage under a Pharaoh, a Pope of Rome that does not know Yeshua! And he’s setting task masters over you! And they’ve been perfecting all their miracles and stuff. Here recently the said the Pope when he touch a vile of dried blood it turned to regular blood again. They said it was the first of his miracles.

God sent Moses and Aaron to bring out the Children of Israel that were in bondage! And not only the children of Israel; but also there were gentiles that came that believed. He sends again and here’s what’s interesting; Moses when it come to the time of the Death Angel was going to strike God commands him to take a lamb and have all the families to slay the lamb and put the blood over the door and over the lintels! The doorposts and over the lintels, this shouldn’t have been a strange thing for Israel; Abraham offered sacrifices to God, Isaac and Jacob offered sacrifices to God. But had Israel come to a place so long in Egypt that they had forgot how to offer a sacrifice before the Lord. Had they forget how to apply the blood?

Have we gotten so far from God that we don’t know how to apply the Blood of Christ anymore? There’s a famine in the land and it’s a famine for hearing the Word of God! Where Yeshua makes the statement and let me bring this for you as well, when Yeshua says in Matthew 24 and this Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all Nations and then shall the end come! If we were to say that what the Churches have been doing and I’m not against what the; you know people have been winning souls to Christ and I thank God for that.

I’m not belittling that but the problem is the Gospel that Yeshua brought is not being preached all over the world because the gospel that the Churches have brought has been brought to all the world and yet we’re still here there’s no end. The Gospel has not been brought to all the world, the two witnesses will bring the Gospel of setting the captives free and that’s when the end will come when they’re testimony goes forth. When they have preached the Gospel to all the world in its purity! The way it should have been when Yeshua was here, the way Paul preached it, the way Jesus preached it! That’s when the end will come, that’s what will set you free.

And what do they have to do they have to come and they have to withstand Pharaoh, Rome and Rome’s army but this time it’s army with nuclear weapons! It’s an army that has got into the supernatural realms and can do something through another dimension! But God is much greater than all of that! God will bring down Rome and his empire! In fact when they kill the 2 witnesses and they think that they have one the battle then God will destroy Rome at that very idea! When what when the whole world rejoices the Bible says He said I will shall bring all Edomiah to nothing in the one place that the whole world rejoices is at the death of the two witnesses. And God destroys Rome when they’re killed.

And then we find and remember also in Exodus 15 when Moses says äshiyräh layhwäh Kiy–gäoh Gääh; I will sing unto the Lord that’s He’s gotten victory over the horse and over his rider; one horse, one rider! Moses was dealing with 600, Moses put the statement in the future even Rashi knew that. He said Moses must be coming back. Sure he is, the Jews have always believed in the resurrection. You know what’s interesting it’s not the only place, there’s so many prophecies that God gave about Moses that have never been fulfilled.

 

We see also in Revelation 15 they come out on the Sea of Glass mingled with fire. It’s another Exodus and they sing the song of Moses the Bible says and of the Lamb, you have a mixed multitude coming out through a Red Sea this time that sea is red why? It is fire, it is a reddish color and amber color, it’s the judgments of God falling upon the earth and God opens up that window to Heaven and that mix multitude comes out on there. And they’re singing the song of Moses and of the Lamb, children of Israel just like Miriam when she picked up the tambourine and went down the daughters of Israel and they began to sing praises unto God! The Jews will know that the Messiah had come and that they missed Him and Moses and Elijah preaches to them and they believed it but they go out with what? A group that also knows that Yeshua’s the Messiah! Could that be?

I’m beginning to wonder if Revelation 15 may be that is a Rapture message; maybe that is what that’s a picture of. I can’t say I don’t know. I remember Brother Gary said one time he said his grandson; he said his grandson was jumping up; I think it was Brother Gary that told me this. He said his grandson was jumping up and down in the bed and said he didn’t know much about the Lord he was just a little bitty fellow about 4 years old. And he says to his mother he says as we go up; as the bombs come down we will go up; that would be perfectly in line with Revelation 15, it’s interesting.

History is about to repeat itself. God is going to send Moses and Elijah; they will bring judgments upon the earth. But I think that it will also help the true believers that love Yeshua already; not just the Jews I think its’ going to help a lot of people. I think it’ll clear up a lot of the doctrinal problems because why? So many of us; I’m there with you, I’m just your brother, I would love to know if it’s really the deep truths of God not some doctrinal denominational idea that a million different ministers on YouTube, I know I’m one of them.

And I don’t say I have all the right answers. Wouldn’t it be nice to know the way the Gospel was preached when Yeshua was here? Wouldn’t be nice to see those sisters like Mary, the sister the woman at the well that ran in there and preached to all that city and won many souls to Christ? Wouldn’t it be nice to see the Gospel preached and it not have all the doctrinal opinions and you got to do this and you got to do that and if you don’t believe this we don’t like you; you know? That’s just like the way the devil is, the devil wants to put division among us. Somebody hate something we say or something I said or something you said or something you believe and you know don’t do that.

Hold Christ as the center of our heart. And let’s always be willing from our heart that you know we can’t say we know for sure everything just right. But there’s coming a time when this evangeli as Jesus said when it was actually written that Hebrew Matthew it says, Matthew was quoting Him; He says when this evangli, he used the Greek transliteration of it there; has been preached into all the world then the end will come. The Gospel got perverted over the years not to say that we didn’t win many souls to Christ we have and God is appreciative of that but God also knows that Satan has tried to come in there and caused a lot of damage. And he has, it’s like the women issue and stuff, so many women put back in bondage.

When Christ came it was a Jubilee year. And I know that they’re saying that this year is a Jubilee year and maybe it is I don’t know. I did a little math calculation from the time when Yeshua was here and it maybe this year but I can say this much within a few years it will fulfill itself nonetheless from what I can see. But it’s time that we get set free and the only way that seems to me that we’re really gonna know that; I know Christ is the One that sets us free. It’s through His Blood we need to apply His Blood; we need to apply it on our lives and over our children, over our loved ones and to believe.

But I believe God is sending these 2 witnesses not just for the sake of Israel, I believe their coming to break the hold that Rome has over the people. It will bring judgments upon Rome and the world. No military force will be able to stop them nothing will. God will make sure of that, if He has to hide them like He did Elisha. The military couldn’t see them nowhere God can do that again. God knows how to do inter-dimensions as well, much better than Satan does. I trust this has been a blessing for you I’m sorry that’s it’s all broke up. I just don’t know how to express it any clearer than I can and I don’t want people to misunderstand me and say oh Steve believes this or Steve don’t believe that just take me from my heart what I’m trying to tell you. What I’m trying to get you to understand.

Things may not always be way we think they are anyway God bless you. Shalom, remember us going back home. So just remember us keep us in your prayers. And we thank you for being a part of this ministry and supporting this ministry shalom.

The Love of Money Is The Root of All Evil

The Love of Money Is The Root of All Evil!

 

Steven Ben-Nun: Shalom Chaverim, I’m Steven Ben-Nun with DeNoon Institute of Biblical Research. The other day in one of the news special reports that I was doing I mentioned to you about the love of money and that really got me to wanting to go back because God was just putting this in my heart. Dealing with me about it and so I thought I must go back and really look at the scripture about this not just the fact of money but the word root because it is the root of all evil.

The scripture that we actually looked at is found in 1st Timothy 6:10 for the love of money is the root of all evil. All evil? That’s very huge to say that; which while come coveted after they have erred from the faith and pierce themselves through with many sorrows. It really got me on a search because the Lord had already revealed to me what the real meaning of this passage was. It was a prophetic passage and of course I remember many of the scriptures that speak about the Messiah especially in the prophetic tone.

If you look for example in Isaiah 53 starting with verse 1 and we’ll read through verse 5 who hath believe our report and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? For He shall grow up before Him as a tend plant and as a root out of a dry ground. He hath no form or comeliness when we shall see Him there is no beauty that we should desire Him. This is speaking of the Messiah the coming Messiah. He is despised and rejected of men, a man of sorrows acquainted with grief and we hid as it were our faces from Him.

How said. He was despised and we esteemed Him not surely He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted but He was wounded for our transgressions He was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon Him and with His stripes we are healed. Of course this beautiful scriptures there about the Messiah especially the healing by His stripes we’re healed. He was bruised for our iniquities, He suffered so greatly but the important part in this case here is He is typed as a root out of dry ground.

Then again we have the other scriptures as well especially where; actually let me see if I could ah; this one here I believe this is in Isaiah a prophecy here. And I forget which chapter I think it’s (Isaiah) chapter 11, chapter 11 verse 10 and it shall come to pass in that day, in the King James they worded this a little; they did a mistake in their translation but let me go ahead and read it, that the root of Jesse that standeth for an ensign of the peoples unto it shall be nations seek and his resting place shall be glorious. Now the word it is not written in Hebrew it’s actually unto Him shall the nations seek. It’s actually (Hebrew) elayw Goyim yid’roshu, the elayw unto Him; unto Him Goyim shall the Gentiles seek. And He is actually called the Root of Jesse so the Messiah is typed as the root.

Again we have in Revelation chapter 5 and one of the elders saith unto me, weep not behold the Lion of the Tribe of Judah the Root of David have prevailed to open the Book and loose the 7 seals. The Root of David again it’s referred to as the root. He says in Revelation 22:16 it says when Yeshua is speaking I Yeshua have sent Mine angel to testify unto you these things in the Churches I Am the Root and offspring of David and the Bright and Morning Star.

Now here’s what’s fascinating if Yeshua; if the Coming Messiah of 2,000 years ago was referred to in prophecy by the prophets of old as a root, He was likened as the root. Also we find it in I believe it’s in Romans 11, He is the root and we are the branches. It’s not that we are the root, Israel is not the root in fact it clearly it says that because of unbelief in part because of unbelief and part because of blindness Israel is; the branches are cut out of the tree. See they’re not the root, the Root is what gives the Life and Christ is that Root. So if Christ is the Root as the Messiah the Anointed One, the Christ, Yeshua, if He is the Root then the Anti-Christ must also have a root as well. And that’s where I found these interesting scriptures that identify.

Now let’s look back again at Timothy, let’s go to verse 7, it’s in chapter 6, 1st Timothy he says for we brought nothing into this world and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be there with content but they that will be rich will fall into temptation and a snare. And unto many foolish and hurtful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. Wow! It downs men in destruction and perdition. You know the perdition, you know Judas was called the son of perdition and as well as the Anti-Christ would be called the son of perdition. Judas was the man that carried the money bag interesting and he was an apostle. Now the Roman Catholic Church believes that the Pope of Rome is the successor to Peter. He is the successor to one of the apostles but it’s not Peter its Judas because they still carry the money bag. And it’s true that he is the successor let’s look and see how we know this. In verse 10 it says for the love of money is the root of all evil.   All, all the evil there is has a root and that root is identified by the desire that is that love of money. And even the scripture says in one place about Judas it wasn’t that he cared about the poor but he held the money bag.

It’s the same thing with the Roman Catholic Church if they really cared about the poor as the world tries to make it look like they do then they would sell off the trillions of dollars of gold and feed the world instead of building all the idols but they don’t. They don’t care about the poor that’s even, I don’t just blame it on the Catholic Church what about the mega billion dollars, million dollars Churches that are built? I mean what about all; what about the poor? You know when’s the last time you have tried to help someone that was in need? It’s important it’s what Yeshua it’s the life that He lived. It’s what He demonstrated to us that we help others.

Anyway it says for the love of money is the root of all evil. Now here’s what’s really interesting; which while some coveted it, they really desire it; after they have erred from the faith. They were actually part of the original walk with Christ like Judas was and if that’s not a direct statement about Judas I’d be surprised. See which while some coveted it, after they had erred from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. This is exactly what the Catholic Church did.

Oh yes the Early Church Fathers and stuff they were offshoots of the Christianity they were offshoots of the Campaigns of the Early Apostles and no doubt could probably easily trace it back and could tell you which Apostle was that Apostle that witnessed to the one maybe even a witness to them. But they coveted that money and God was giving you a sign to know who it was that would have, in other words the sign is the root of all evil is that one that has that love for money. Then it gets better than that.

Let’s look at Hebrews chapter 12, looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springeth up trouble you and thereby many be defiled; a root of bitterness; lest there be any fornicator or profane person as Esau who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

Now Esau is identified with a root and it’s a root of bitterness. And bitterness is an evil just like we have the love of money being the root of all evil. We know that in Obadiah, Obadiah clearly says out of the Mount of Esau chapter 1 verse 8, shall it not in that day saith the Lord even destroy the wise men out of Edom and the understanding out of the Mount of Esau. Esau wait a minute let’s see what it says in that day He’s gonna destroy the understanding out of the Mount of Esau. What is the Mount of Esau then? And thy mighty men of Teman and shall be dismayed to the end of everyone; let me back up.

Let me back up to verse 7 in Obadiah, all the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border, the border of what? To the border of Israel. The men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee and prevailed against thee they that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee there is none understanding in him. Shall I not in that day saith the Lord even destroys the wise men out of Edom, by the Edom was where Esau’s children lived at. And understanding out of the Mount of Esau, now Esau’s identified; and thy mighty men of Teman shall be dismayed to the end that every one of the Mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter. For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee and thou shalt be cut off forever. Wait a minute, for thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee and thou shall be cut off forever, well there is no place where we see that Esau himself did any evil to his brother when his brother came back in he accepted him with open arms.

At first he’s seen to come down with vengeance but then Jacob prevailed and became a Prince with God and he found grace in the sight of Esau right? It’s a spirit that moves down, it’s a root, it’s a root of bitterness because Esau’s descendants are still bitter against Israel. They’re still bitter against Jacob.

Watch what he says; verse 10 for thy violence against we read that one. (Obadiah 1) Verse 11 in that day thou that thou stoodest on the other side in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces and foreigners enter into his gates and cast lots upon Jerusalem even thou was as one of them. Wow, now wait a minute; now that’s putting Esau his descendants at the time of what? At the time when Yeshua was here 2,000 years ago; at 70 AD wait a minute I thought that David and Saul killed all Esau’s descendants?

According to the scripture in 2 Kings all but one Hadad, Hadad escapes he’s just a young child. He’s taken down with some of the others; he is of the royal seed of Esau. He’s raised in a House of Pharaoh as a Prince of Egypt, interesting just like Moses isn’t it? See Moses was a type of Christ, the True Messiah. The Anti-Type has to follow the same pattern that the Messiah goes in. So the Anti-Type which the Anti-Christ of that day is Hadad who’s also raised in the House of Pharaoh. But instead of separating from Pharaoh he does separate he becomes the King of what? Syria, what do you know. But he never got rid of the idolatry. Moses forsook all the treasures and riches of Egypt to esteem to see him that was invisible Christ Mashiach, Yeshua but not Hadad.

He goes up he marries in because why? He’s already part Arabic in that part of the land anyway. He’s already been married into that, Esau did that it’s is kindred. He goes up there becomes the King of Syria later even Jewish historians track him his own descendants they go into Northern Africa across the channel into Rome and that’s where the descendants are.

And now the Bible tracks it as well because God puts the Mount of Esau in Rome. How do we know this? (Obadiah 1 verse 11) He says in that day thou shouldest not stand on the other side in that day that the strangers carried away his forces and foreigners entered into his gates and cast lots upon Jerusalem even thou was as one of them.

So we got to find out which one of them they are because we know that the Assyrians and of course the whole Babylonian Kingdom was involved so we did have Arabic forces attacking Israel just like their doing today. Just like Rome has all these relationships with all these Arabic Nations all around them and they just bow down and do whatever the Pope says. Now I know people say well their killing the Christians that are in those Nations the Catholic people that are living there that’s what you know you would get the argument about it. Rome doesn’t mind sacrificing some of their people to make it look good. You’d be surprised what they would do.

Notice what he says next verse 12 but thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother and the day that he became a stranger neither shouldest thy have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction. Now it’s clearly 70 AD the children of Judah; the House of Judah in the day of their destruction neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. It gets even better, watch what he says thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity. Yea they shouldest not have looked upon their affliction in the day of their calamity nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity.

Now I realize that the Roman Catholic Church was not built in 70 AD when Titus the Roman General was there. But clearly the Ark of Titus that is in Rome today that depicts the Temple Treasures were carried back to what is called Modern Day Rome. They were carried back there; somewhere in those catacombs are the Temple Treasures the Menorah etc… So God identifies that though not just as Romans but as the descendants of Esau. So we clearly know that.

 

Now we go back now we’re looking at this other scripture here, not only is a root; see another part of that evil root happens to be lest any root of bitterness spring up and trouble you thereby and many be defiled lest there be any fornicator or profane person as Esau who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright that’s Hebrew 12:15. Now notice what he did. He sold his birthright. Why do you think that there is a love of money for Rome then? They’re trying to buy back what they sold.

Notice what else this says; verse 17 in Hebrews chapter 12 for you know how that afterward when he would have inherited the blessing he was rejected for he found no place of repentance though he sought it carefully with tears. So see as he’s sold his birthright he’s been trying to find a way to buy back God’s favor and he can’t do it. And God gave us a sign not to mention he shows you where Esau lives in Rome. He also speaks about how he will destroy them in Obadiah and other places as well. What it says again in 1st Timothy 6:10 for the love of money is root of all evil, all evil then has a root that is Satan it’ll be the Anti-Christ spirit and he has a desire or the love of money; which while some coveted after they have erred from the faith; show that he was part of the faith but erred. In other words he went away from the original gospel that Jesus Christ first spoke to His apostles and we got the corruption of Constantine and the Church and State Religion.

Which by the way the United States you’re about to come under Church and States Religion if you’re already 501C you’re already owned by the State anyway they own your Church and so you’re not gonna get to say a whole lot about anything in the first place but the Vatican controls the United States as it is. It is just something else but again we have another incredible passage that identifies where the root of all evil is and it’s with money.

And let me just share this with you if you want to know about money and Rome let me just share one of these things here with you. I looked at several articles but this a little short one for you. The Roman Catholic Church is almost certainly the wealthiest organization in the world. In the United States alone now this is; actually when I wrote the book Israel Are They Still God’s People I quoted from the Vatican and its Billions is a book there that talks about the wealth of the Vatican. But this is been updated since then it is estimated that the Catholic Church has an operating budget of 170 billion dollars comparison in physical year 2012 all right? Now that’s; by the way that’s only the United States 170 billion dollars. Apple and General Motors each had about 150 billion revenue world-wide. The Vatican I think in the book when I wrote about this the Vatican and its billions has more gold than all other countries in the world. There’s no country in the world that has more gold reserves than the Vatican does. The own stocks in practically every major corporation in the world, they’re revenues, their spending and not to mention their hard assets. In other words like all the gold figurines and stuff in their Churches around the world. They said it’s impossible to put a value on the Vatican it is so wealthy.

And we also see that the Vatican in bringing about a New World Order using NATO, their Allies, the United States by the way, the United States can fight outside of NATO, the Vatican uses them to conquer the world the way they need too. This is one reason why you see that this issue over Ukraine like we did in the report just the other day Russia wanted to be a part of the economic structure. And Russian even asked back in November of 2013 let’s do a negotiation over Ukraine and let’s share in the economic structure there. The United States said no they wouldn’t even allow them to come to the negotiation table unto after you know what 4,000 something people were murdered. There’s right and there’s wrong.

And clearly there’s been a lot of things been done wrong. Now the reason I bring up this part about Russia though is because the Mark of the Beast and this is what we’re gonna be getting into in this special report. The Mark of the Beast is an economic control; it’s an economic boycott of countries that’s what you’re seeing that Rome is doing now to the world. You see they didn’t want Russia a part of this economic system because Russia has not been conquered by the Vatican as of yet. The Pope of Rome has not gone to Russia so therefore they’re not conquered.

And until Russia becomes conquered by Rome Russia’s that’s why they got the sanctions on them. But what’s interesting is Israel is not co-operating in the sanctions. Israel is still doing business with Russia as normal. And yet Israel has been conquered by the Vatican but not the people. It’s the same thing in the United States, the people of the United States have not been conquered by Rome but the politics, the Governmental System has been conquered by Rome. That’s why you’re fixing to go under a major, major assault in the United States this is why you’re gonna see the huh, the Global situation completely change. They’re fixing to lock down America. They’re going to lock down what you can and cannot say. Freedom of religion will end. It’ll be no different than Russia at that point.

Anyway; I don’t want to get into that as of yet there’s so much that I can say and I want to say later. I just wanted to share this message with you because I thought it was just fascinating to see again another clear evidence that tells us where that Anti-Christ Spirit sits at. Where the Judas of today now I know a lot of people say he’s just the False Prophet you know let me just say this in closing. It has been a campaign by the Churches, the different denominational systems of today Baptists, Methodist, Pentecostals, Presbyterians those that have taught especially in the evangelical movement that have taught about the Anti-Christ.

There’s been a huge movement everybody keeps looking for this Anti-Christ to be some Arabic guy or some Prince Charles or some world leader, young charismatic guy to come along and this is how the Mark of the Beast will be implemented will be through him. Have you ever considered the possibility especially now that you see all these Churches that have put out this doctrine to begin with they’re all joining with Rome now? Even the Assemblies of God, I actually attended an Assemblies of God Church in South Florida I just found out today from a friend of mine that goes there that had been attending there for a long time there that they went had a meeting, the Assemblies of God had a meeting with Pope Frances and they have joined in and they have now starting to teach Catholic Doctrines within the Assemblies of God.

And the last one you’ll probably see do this will be the United Pentecostals because it’s a bigger barrier for them because of the way they believe in the oneness doctrine. They’re not Trinitarian so it’ll be harder for them to overcome but they’re gonna have to do it or they’re gonna loose everything or you just have to become completely out of all of it. And they would loose everything because even the United Pentecostals are 501C organizations they’re owned by the State. Now as I say this though all these Churches that you guys have been part of, I was part of as well at one time you’ve got to understand that they have been preaching to you that the Anti-Christ, False Prophet are 2 different people altogether. And that; and some of them they can’t even say that the False Prophet has anything to do with the Catholic Church because it’s against the 501C Corporations guidelines. The United States says if you say anything against the Vatican they can shut you down and take everything you’ve got. So they got to give you some other Anti-Christ idea and so they have brought that nonsense theology to your mind to get you to believe a lie. And it’s very good they’ve been very good at it but what’s gonna happen when they begin to start the New World Order?

The Pope of Rome is coming to the United States to speak to Congress, both houses of Congress; he’s coming to speak to the United Nations address the General Assembly there to kick off the One World Government. This is where your liberties will be changed; this is why the Churches are doing this come back home to the Catholic Church faith now. And it; on the outset of it, it maybe it looks like a great thing but they’ll come a time I can’t say to you the things I’m saying now without going to jail. They’re making it a crime right now the evangelical organization in America has been considered a terrorist organization that has been passed and the people that passed that right now are trying to make it a criminal offense for you to say anything against the Catholic Church.

Why do you think John Hagee joined up with them? Rick Warren, all these, you know a lot of these people were just Jesuits no doubt. I don’t think John Hagee was. But they face loosing everything they have many of them have very wealthy lifestyles, they’re gonna lose it all if they don’t give in. And the Mark of the Beast will come so simply you can’t buy or sell. Not just saving you take the mark do you know you can have the name or the number of the name? Hum, in other words if you’re Catholic it’s good enough you’re already part of the system that’s why he says come out of My people and be not partakers of her plagues.

Where does it say come out of the Anti-Christ and be not partakers of her plagues? The plagues strike the one that is the Anti-Christ system. And the Churches have been teaching you a lie so that when the time comes taking the Mark if you’re already looking for something else and it’s not here yet you’ll think that it’s not; that’s not the Mark of the Beast yet. Microchip maybe only facilitate this whole situation but maybe they don’t microchip everybody. You don’t have to be just microchipped you know? The Mark of the Beast, the number of his name or his name there’s more than one way the scriptures clearly got it right there for you.

Serious friends it’s very serious. God bless you I trust this is helping you somewhat, copy these messages please do. We know we don’t have much more grace in saying what we’re saying. We need your support there’s things we need to do to be able to get this message out further. I want to a duplicator like 10 where we can start making DVD’s our self but I just encourage you to do it share them with your friends everything you can because freedom of religion is coming to an end, it is coming to an end. Shalom. I’m Steven Ben-Nun with DeNoon Institute of Biblical Research, we love you.

What Rabbis Have Overlooked in The Torah

by Leave a Comment

Steven Ben-Nun: Shabbat Shalom chaverim! It is a pleasure to get to speak with you on this Sabbath Evening. And I don’t know exactly how we’re going to go with this message here but I think it’ll be a blessing to you. It’s something that I wanted to share kind of like a highlight of the different revelations God has given me over the years here. Some of the revelations may not have been heard by newer listeners, however you can listen to some of the older videos and find them. The book that I’m writing now “Moses a prophet liken unto me”, is where you will be able to find these revelations and insights. We’re looking at the different prophetic insights throughout the scripture that identity Yeshua as being the Messiah. I’m compiling those in the book and of course there’s many of them I forgot I’d have to go back and listen to the video’s myself. I just thought I would share a bunch of these with you that I can remember off the top of my head this evening. And if you know someone Jewish maybe; it might be a blessing to them as well. Let’s get started.

I’d like to begin with the Book of John in the Christian Bible. The Gospel of John (chapter 1 verse 1), in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.

(Verse 2) The same was in the beginning with God all things were made by Him and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was Life and the Life was the Light of men, and the Light shined in the darkness and the darkness comprehended it not. This was the passage that really got my attention early on because John’s revelation was very interesting. He says in the beginning was the Word and I remember going back to Genesis because it is obvious that John is referring to Genesis by stating in the beginning (בְּרֵאשִׁית) literally in Hebrew it means “at the first” but it’s what we would call the beginning or Genesis I begin to think: what is the first word that God spoke because John notices in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with GOD and the Word was GOD …and the Word becomes the Light of men. But the real question in my mind was “what was the first WORD” from GOD’s Mouth

This had to have been one of the greatest revelations that I believe the Lord ever showed me was the first Words spoken by our Creator.

(בְּרֵאשִׁית, בָּרָא אֱלֹהִים, אֵת הַשָּׁמַיִם, וְאֵת הָאָרֶץ)

At the first God created the Heavens and the earth; Genesis 1:1

(וְהָאָרֶץ, הָיְתָה תֹהוּ וָבֹהוּ, וְחֹשֶׁךְ, עַל-פְּנֵי תְהוֹם; וְרוּחַ אֱלֹהִים, מְרַחֶפֶת עַל-פְּנֵי הַמָּיִם.)

Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

the darkness was upon the face of the deep you might say and the Spirit of God hovered over or walked over the surface of the waters. Need to save this one here it is a revelation within itself. But we are looking to find in the Torah where GOD actually speaks for the first time.

(וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, יְהִי אוֹר; וַיְהִי-אוֹר.)

And God said: ‘Let there be light.’ And there was light. Genesis1:3

It is translated; let there be light but this translation does not do the scripture justice. The Hebrew rendering is Eternity coming into existence, so that He can have fellowship with His creation. We must remember GOD is invisible. GOD the Eternal One or as some would say; GOD the Father is an invisible GOD; and Christ is the expressed Image, He is the Form in which GOD chose to make Himself known to man to be the essence of man’s life. John claims that the Word that was in the beginning was the; Light of men. So the Son of God as we see was there in the beginning but He was first born of all and yet existed before the birth of creation. In the beginning was God; the Word, and the Word was with God.

So the first Word that proceeded from GOD’s Lips was “let there be light” and that light was the light of men according to the Apostles writings. So John was right on it when he said in Him was Life and the Life was the Light of men. God says the (וַיֹּאמֶר אֱלֹהִים, יְהִי אוֹר) and God said let there be light. Wow it’s incredible so God became Light, and the Light was the Light of men.

So how did GOD make this happen becoming one with His creation? GOD takes and He breathes into the nostrils of Adam first He formed Adam from the dust of the earth. This is reflected in the Life of Yashua when He was on earth. In the story of the blind man that Yashua anoints with clay. Yashua takes and He spits on the ground till He makes a clay puddle, takes the spit and dirt mixes it until it turns into clay, see and He forms that clay puts it on his eyes and tells him to go wash in the Pool of Siloam. What was Christ doing? He was showing He was the same GOD in Genesis that took and formed Adam from the dust of the ground.

So GOD first formed man from the dust of the ground;

(וַיִּפַּח בְּאַפָּיו, נִשְׁמַת חַיִּים)

and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; Genesis 2:7

GOD breathed in his nostrils the Breath of Life. Chayim (חַיִּים) is the word Life in a plural form. So why does GOD breathe Life in a Plural into a singular body? He created both of them as one unit; “…in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.” Genesis 1:27 And He called their name Adam.

So Adam and Eve as we would know them, were contained in the self-same body. The name Adam comes from the word Adamah (אֲדָמָה) which is ground in Hebrew. Eve is not given this name at first; Chavah (חַוָּה) the mother of all living. This name is prophesy of the role woman would play in bringing Life into the World. Before the fall GOD calls her Isha and He calls Adam Ish.

Now the Rabbis have always known that their names are both from the same compound word; Ish (אִיש) which is what the man is called, derived from the word fire (אֵשׁ) and GOD’s Divine Name (יהוָה) In the middle of his name is the letter Yod (י) The first letter for the Divine Name of God. Isha (אִשָּׁה) his wife who is inside of Adam at this time will be called by the feminine of this compound word that gives her life. The first two letters of course is the fire or the light as was given to Adam (אֵשׁ) the Light of men. And the last letter in her name is the Hey (ה) put these two letters together from Ish and Isha we get GOD – Yah (יה). GOD is written right there in their names as long as they are one they are in His image.This fire that was in them was The Holy Spirit the light of men. Now God when He breathes in this body, He breathes not only the Light but the Life into them and that Life as John said was; “…and the Life was the Light of men;” mankind in this case here.

So He doesn’t have to breathe; (וַיִּפַּח בְּאַפָּיו, נִשְׁמַת חַיִּים) the second time for Isha (Eve) when she is takien from the Ish (Man) because she is already filled with this life that came to this body of Adam in a plural form from the Tree of Life (וְעֵץ הַחַיִּים). This Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden is Christ. What is the Tree of Life? It’s the Olive Tree of course because He (Yashua) is typed in the Bible as the Olive Tree. So the Olive Tree or Christ that is there, the Tree of Life as it is called is in the midst of the Garden. And The Tree of Life breathes in Adam and Eve a part of The Life of GOD a free gift from Our Creator, and they become living souls and they are called Ish and Isha which literally is the Life or the Fire or the Light of Almighty GOD living in them a portion of His Life. This incredible revelations was one of the first that the Lord shared with me.

 

Another wonderful one that I saw was in the story of Joseph. Joseph is like a window into prophecy of the Life of the Messiah. I speaking about insights that are beyond what you hear most scholars speak about. Most everyone knows that Yashua was sold out for 30 pieces of silver much like Joseph was sold by his brother as well. And he was thrown in the ditch supposing to be dead just as Yashua was delivered up to death by the House of Judah. Common to us are these wonderful insights from the life of Joseph. But the one thing that really got me is when his brothers come to buy the corn and Joseph had been exalted in the land of Egypt. This is in regards to the seven years of famine that is recorded in Genesis about the story of Joseph. Before Joseph’s brothers came he had already feed the entire Gentile world of which were also affected by this global famine. The mere fact that the Gentiles are first feed during the famine is a type that Israel will be seemingly last to recognize who Yashua is. They did not recognize him to be their true brother, neither did The House of Judah recognize that Yashua was there brother anointed for this purpose – to save life. Instead they rejected Him, sold Him out to the Romans crucified Him then after his resurrection He goes to the Gentiles and feeds the entire world. Once the Jews finally realize they were dying, there was no food, a famine was in the land, they sought out the only source left which was in Egypt their own brother, and he was the source for the Bread of Life.

They were unworthy of his mercy and even though he accuses them of being spies at the first he still gives them grain – sustaining their lives. It appears that Joseph wants to bring them to a place of repentance. So he puts the grain in their bag, and returns their money back in the sack as well, why? The Bread of Life is a gift, it’s a free gift of God and you cannot purchase Eternal Life and this grain represented this life. This was the reason he puts their money back in their bag. But on their way home they stop at an Inn at a hotel malon (מָּלוֹן) in Hebrew. One of his brothers discovers that his money had been returned to his sack as he was feeding the donkeys. When he makes this discovery, he’s troubled greatly, he shares this with his brothers and they are all perplexed and recall the evil they did to Joseph. This is symbolic in the story of Christ, at His birth. The first time He was rejected was when He was in His mother’s womb. Joseph was looking for a proper place for Mary to give birth to Yashua and Joseph goes to a hotel but is turned away – rejected.

“…there was no room for them in the inn…” Luke 2:7

. Joseph, Yashua‘s adopted father was forced to take Mary to a barn for his birth. He was the Lamb of God and lambs are born in stables not in hotels. The irony of the parallel is that as Yashua was first rejected at a hotel so too Joseph’s brothers begin to see their errors first at the hotel in their own lives, a parallel we should have recognized as Jews.

Jacobs’s sons return home and relay the story to their father oblivious to Joseph’s true identity. Yet another parallel in the Life of Yashua His brothers never recognized who He really was. Jacob is forced to send his sons once again to Egypt for their survival yet this time he sends Benjamin because Joseph made it clear that all the brothers must be present if they were to receive the Life giving Grain. On their return the brothers are invited to Joseph home for supper very much like Yashua and his disciples at his last supper. Joseph seemingly does a very odd thing to Benjamin at this supper; he hides his cup in his little brother’s bag and then commands his servants to fill their bags with grain, and once again returns their money to each sack. Joseph’s action are a sign to Israel a sign that would manifest in the Life of Christ when He would be rejected at His last supper; the whole story of Joseph is set in symbology letting us know who the Messiah would really be.

Yet there were several reasons why Joseph put his cup in Benjamin’s bag; one was because Christ would be rejected, the greater Joseph would be rejected at the Communion Table.

Secondly he put it in Benjamin’s bag, the innocent brother and his innocence signifies two different things; He was not part of the evil against his brother Joseph yet he becomes responsible for their sins when Joseph puts his own cup to Benjamin’s bag. History has begun to repeat itself the Jews of today were not part of the rejection of Yashua 2000 years ago but GOD has placed His cup in our bag placing the burden on us to accept Him or reject Him. Secondly it was a prophecy of the Benjamites attitudes towards the Messiah when he would come – they would reject Him. The Benjaminites would be the ones that rejected Him as part of the House of Judah; the House of Israel had already gone into captivity. But the House of Judah, consisting of the families of Judah, Benjamin and the Levites were all present and they all three rejected Yashua, and the Benjaminites were calling for His blood just like in the story of David yet another prophetic story.

In the story of David we see the same parallels that clearly were prophetic of the Messiah. Yashua sits on the Mount of Olives and He weeps over Jerusalem:

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! Mathew. Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Mathew 23:37-39

 

 

. Well you know David did something very similar to that when he was rejected of his own people; when his son, his very son Absalom, his name literally in Hebrew means; my father is peace. And he does not recognize or have the revelation that David is the anointed King of Israel but Absalom lifts his-self up as if he’s someone. David he could have put the coup down he had the great warriors among him that could have easily stopped this rebellion, but he didn’t do it.

Remember what happen with Jesus’ followers, with the disciples when they come to take Jesus by force. Peter took out his sword and cut off the ear of High Priest’s servant? Yashua said; Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

Notice with David’s men, like that of Yashua’s disciples they are ready to fight. They said we’ll take care of this right now if you just say the word David. However David would not permit the bloodshed, he was typing out the life of the Messiah that GOD had write about in the Psalms. The question still left unanswered is why would David leave behind ten of his wives? He instructs them to care for his house while he’s gone. And those ten concubines were representatives of the ten virgins written about in the Christian Testament.

 

Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. Mathew 25:1

In the Christian story that we read five are wise, five are foolish but nonetheless the ten virgins are representative of engaged women, they are true Gentiles believers in this day that would believe that Yeshua is the Messiah. And they were left behind to do what? David said care for my house in my absence. And so the Gentiles were given the charge to care for Israel in His absence. And of course Absalom he has abused them very much so publically and right before everyone’s eyes. Well it’s no different today; it’s exactly what has happened with the Jews to the Christian people today many of them abuse Christians not knowing the revelation of the Messiah.

And then again we can understand in some regards though why Jews have hated Christians. There is a false church that is not true to Messiah like the Catholic Church and different organizations that have hated and murdered the Jews for the past 2,000 years. But the true Christians have always stood by Israel; these are the type of the ten virgins the true concubines and I use the term concubines here too for a purpose. A concubine is a wife that has not had a proper marriage as of yet and of course the Bride of Christ is still to be married. So it’s another interesting parallel.

The story of Joseph, and his brother Benjamin having the cup in his bag is linked with the story of David too, both prophetic revealing the coming Messiah. When David leaves Jerusalem after having wept over the city on the mount of Olives like Yashua did he and his men start on their journey out and encounter Shimei – a very interesting story with David.

And when king David came to Bahurim, behold, there came out thence a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera; he came out, and kept on cursing as he came… And the king said: ‘What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse, because the LORD hath said unto him: Curse David; who then shall say: Wherefore hast thou done so?’ And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants: ‘Behold, my son, who came forth of my body, seeketh my life; how much more this Benjamite now? let him alone, and let him curse; for the LORD hath bidden him 2 Samuel 16:5 &10-11

Shimei is of the Tribe of Benjamin interestingly enough he curses David spits on him and accuses him of robbing the kingdom from Saul. David’s men were ready to kill him too but David said let him alone the Lord has told him to do this. The same thing with Yeshua He was spit on and cursed by whom? By the Benjaminites rejected by the Benjaminites they said let His blood be upon us and upon our children. Now they meant it in a derogatory sense just like Joseph’s brothers meant it in a derogatory sense as well when they decided to take and kill one of their own rams and pour the blood upon Joseph’s coat to go and lie to their father and say tell us is this your son’s coat or not? And of course when Jacob saw it he wept bitterly. He said yes it is my son’s coat. But yet Joseph bore in his body the iniquity of his brethren like the scapegoat and the sacrificial goat that was commanded to be offered on Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) in The Law of Moses. The goat that was killed by Joseph’s brothers was used as a sacrificial goat placed on his coat and God accepted that sacrificial goat that was offered by Joseph’s brothers was recognized by GOD as a sacrifice for their sins else GOD would have killed them for their sins; Joseph became the scapegoat baring the sins of his brothers in his body during his exile.

In Yashua’s case He fulfilled both scapegoat and sacrificial goat; when the House of Judah cried out “…Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children…” they like Joseph’s brothers meant it in a derogatory sense but GOD applied that blood in a supernatural sense and pardoned them for their iniquities in both cases.

We see this in every type; the story of Joseph and his brothers found mercy as well as in the story of Shimei. After David leaves and his men and they cross the river Jordan just like Christ He crossed the River Jordan – spiritually. He says to Israel your house is left desolate. What does He mean by desolate? He’s not talking about a destruction of the Temple He’s talking about them personally their own houses – their hearts. Those Jews who did not believe that He was The Lamb of GOD that He was The Rock Christ Jesus that came to restore the Waters of Life – Eternal Life to them. The fulfillment of being born again as He related to Nicodemus.The Water of Life that was in Him was The Holy Spirit The New Birth it was the Life from the Tree of Life as we mentioned earlier from the Etz HaChayim. The Jews in Yashua day should have recognized him with so many Biblical stories that were playing out in His Life.

So David crossed the river and while David is gone he sends two witnesses back, two Priest and their sons. They go back and David says to them; let me know what’s going on in my absence, much like God will do at the very end He’ll have two witnesses.

Now in another place David says have the people all in one mind and one accord so that I can return.

And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak unto the elders of Judah, saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, even to his house.

Ye are my brethren, ye are my bones and my flesh: wherefore then are ye the last to bring back the king?

And say ye to Amasa, Art thou not of my bone, and of my flesh? God do so to me, and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually in the room of Joab.

And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah, even as the heart of one man; so that they sent this word unto the king, Return thou, and all thy servants. 2 Samuel 19:11-14

 

This is exactly what Yeshua is looking for according to Zechariah 12 and isn’t this interesting in Zechariah 12 when they look upon the One whom they have pierced and they mourn for Him as a family that lost their only son.

The Bible says they separate each one to his own family, the House of David apart and his wives, apart the House of Nathan apart and their wives apart, the House of Shimei apart and their wives apart, the House of Levi and their wives apart. And when it names the family it does not name them in tribal order but if you look at the family names David and Nathan are from the Tribe of Judah, Shimei again from the Tribe of Benjamin and of course the Levites are the Levites. God in Zechariah says He gathers the House of Judah first so that they do not exalt themselves above Israel. So everything is falling into perfect place. Shimei in the story of David when David is coming back and crosses the River they; his servants wanted to kill Shimie much like some that call themselves Christians, think that the Jews should be killed today. Many Christians have had their theology corrupted by Church fathers regarding the Jews they say; well Jews don’t believe that Yashua’s the Messiah so therefore they should be just wiped off the earth. David’s men had that kind of same idea as well. But David said no man shall die this day today and he had mercy on Shimei in fact Shimei was the very one that met him at the River first pleading for mercy because why? He had finally recognized that David was GOD’s anointed King and Israel will soon see to that the one man that was rejected by our fathers this Yashua, Jesus Christ is indeed the Messiah – Moshiach Ben-David.

There are so many evidences that we should have seen as Jews, but it wasn’t meant to be.

And one is the crown of thorns. The crown of thorns is so prophetic, Moses meet GOD at the Burning Bush – that Bush was a thorn Bush so the word Sinai means in English. And GOD spoke to Moses from the midst of the Thorn Bush just a Yashua cried out to Israel from the midst of the Thorn Bush. The Angel of His Presence was the light it was the pillar of fire that was the Angel of His Presence, the very same light spoken in Genesis chapter 1.

Now hear it was Christ was hanging on a Cross they put a crown of thorns upon Him. They even smote Him on the head before they put Him on the Cross and said speak! But when He did speak in that unknown tongue there GOD was in the midst of the thorn bush speaking once again to the children of Israel. Consider the prophecy in the Song of Solomon 2:2

As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters

He’s the Lily of the Valley the Bright and Morning Star the root and offspring of David but the “lily among the thorns” shows where we would find Him.

Another one Hosea 2:6 where God says to Israel; I will hedge up your way with thorns. See the children of Israel ever since Adam and Eve were pushed out of the Garden of Eden we wanted to know how to get back to the Tree of Life. Eternal Life is really what being born again is all about. This is why Yeshua was so surprised when Nicodemus did not understand what being born again is really about, he didn’t understand the concept. Jesus said; Art thou a master of Israel, and knowest not these things?

Why? Because if we’re born of a natural life there has not been any Breathe of Life breathed into us by the Tree of Life; Etz haChayim.

God has not breathed that Breathe of Life or the Holy Spirit as Christians would speak about it today; has not been breathed into you because that way was guarded until Redemption was brought forth. And that’s exactly what God prophesies in Hosea 2:6 He says the way of the Tree of Life; let me pull that up for you, the way of the Tree of Life ah; cause this is a really, really good one here. And He says here; for their mother hath played the Harlot she that conceived them hath done shamefully for she said I will go after my lovers. Now by the way this is where God is using Hosea to show how Israel’s going to act. For she said I will go after my lovers give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, mine oil and mine drink for behold I will hedge up thy way with thorns and make a wall that she shall not find her paths.

The way to the Tree of Life was guarded by God. And she goes after her lovers for what? Water! Wool! Flax! Oil, drink, well you know look at these right here GOD is the One that gives it. (Matthew 6:25) He says think not what you shall wear or what you shall drink or eat. He says for your Father in Heaven careth for these things. What about the water? Yashua is the Water of Life. He is the rock, remember when Moses takes at Meribah and the children of Israel chiding against Moses said you brought us out here to all die. Now they’d only been what? Two or three months into the journey already they’d seen the Red Sea parted and all the plagues in Egypt. All the miracles down in Egypt they saw and God had spared them and separated between them. And now they’re complaining because they don’t have water. Well see GOD knew what He was doing. GOD was setting up signs for Israel all along the way things to teach us what to look for so we would know when the Messiah comes. So they chided with Moses they said whether or not, you know is GOD among us or not? Same things they did when Yashua came, is GOD among us or not?

But isn’t it interesting GOD says to Moses; take the elders of Israel and go out Aaron with you, the Levite and smite the rock. Do you know Aaron was among those speaking against Moses at that time? When GOD takes Aaron’s life GOD says it’s why He takes his life and won’t allow him to go into the Promised Land because he withstood Moses at that time as well showing that the Levites would not believe when Messiah will come.

And they would take the elders of Israel and they would judge him (Yashua) and Moses, as a type of GOD, would smite him when Christ same. And when he smote that rock which that rock represented Christ the water came forth in a huge abundance. It was showing that the only way that the Life Etz haChayim (The Tree of Life) that was in the Garden of Eden could be restored back. The only way they could get a new birth was for the Rock to be judged by Israel, rejected by Israel and then be stricken by Israel so that He could be opened up.

See this is what He did with the woman at the well, remember the woman at the well? (John 4:10-11) He comes to her and He says; if you knew who it was that was talking to you, you would ask Me for a drink I’d give you water you don’t have to come here anymore. (paraphrased) And she said sir the well is deep and You have nothing to draw it with but then she wanted to know give me this water that I don’t come here to drink anymore. He was giving her a sign to look for. He says I’ll give you that water that flows from the belly.

And when He was on Calvary and the Roman soldier pierced His side and the water and blood came out separated as a direct testimony that He was the Rock. He give her the sign to look for, I’ll give you water. I believe she was probably there the day that He was crucified and saw that water come forth.

And when that water came forth it allowed the Life that was inside of Him to be released that the people were restored access to the Tree of Life. The Bible says, He was the Life and the Life was what? The Light of men, what does He do after His resurrection? He comes along and He breathes on His apostles and He says; receive ye the Holy Spirit. Isn’t that interesting? Again He was identifying who He was.

Because He breathed on Adam and both Adam and Eve receive the Holy Spirit, we know this because nowhere does the scripture ever say that God had to breath into Eve’s nostrils the Breathe of Life. She was filled with the Holy Spirit as well, because why? God breathed it in a multiple form inside of the body of Adam. Literally says in Hebrew He took from Ish, from the Fire of Yahweh and He made Isha that’s how we know that she was filled with the Spirit of God. And we see this beautiful type and parallel also in John the Baptist. John the Baptist is a representation of the restoration of Eve coming from the mother’s womb filled with the Holy Spirit. John was filled with the Holy Spirit from his own mother’s womb see? Adam was like a mother so to speak of Eve because God takes her from him not that he’s her mother we know that.   But you know you understand what I’m saying just to give you a little bit of an analogy here.

Why did Yashua walk on water that was another beautiful revelation the Lord showed me. I’m sitting there looking at Yeshua walking on the water in the Christian Bible and when I did I remembered the very verse from the Genesis account.

(וְהָאָרֶץ, הָיְתָה תֹהוּ וָבֹהוּ, וְחֹשֶׁךְ, עַל-פְּנֵי תְהוֹם; וְרוּחַ אֱלֹהִים, מְרַחֶפֶת עַל-פְּנֵי הַמָּיִם.)

Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of GOD hovered over the face of the waters. Genesis 1:2

See the very same God that could walk on the water in Genesis was here walking on the water showing His disciples who He was. There are so many many more I could share but another time I will.

Israel Provoked To Jealousy!

Transcribe By Sister Torres

 

          Steven Ben-Nun: Shalom chaverim. It is nice to get a chance to speak with you guys. And I want to speak to you a little bit about the Provoking Israel to Jealousy that God would do with a no people or a; the Gentiles clearly as Paul speaks about in Romans. And I want to bring this subject up mainly because I don’t want you to think when I was speak the other day about the fullness of the Gentiles in Ephraim being assimilated throughout the different Nations, the Gentile people that this scripture here being fulfilled there is a neglecting to the Gentile people period that come into the Covenant of Israel as well. Because there is a difference there and clearly because the prophecy from Deuteronomy deals with both Houses of Israel because at the time they were not split there was just one group there and so clearly God is provoking Israel to jealousy by a no people.

Now it’s not a Lo Ammi which not my people in Hebrew Lo Ammi is how God says that but in Hebrew He say Be Lo Am see a no people so there’s a difference there and that’s what’s important when we look at the fullness of the Gentiles. And looking at the Gentile people that come in ah; are the Gentiles that will be fulfilled all right? Now a little awkward to say all that but anyhow let’s take; I’m gonna take you; I’m gonna be taking you through a Hebrew Bible so it’s a little different worded in this one than in King James not much. I will be using King James as well for other scriptures but on this one here I wanted to bring this out a little differently.

Let’s go to chapter; I believe in English that’ll be (Deuteronomy) chapter 32 yes and I’m gonna start here and I’m gonna start here with verse 18 of the rock that begot thee, (Hebrew) tzûr y’läd’khä Teshiy, see? The rock that begot thee or begat you I’m so used to saying thee and thou but it’s actually the rock that begot you ah; you were not; you were unmindful and you did forget God that bore you and the Lord so the (Hebrew) Be eynay, Yar yhwah, being God’s name HaShem. Well just; I prefer to say HaShem I don’t want to get anybody confused I mean I’ve used different pronunciations that you guys are using maybe that would be better not to do that because as I said before God has a specific time that He restores His Name I don’t want to get a confusion on that. So let’s just stick with HaShem and then that way if I say HaShem you know what I’m speaking of is God’s divine name.

So and HaShem saw and spurned because of provoking of His sons and His daughter’s and He said I will hide My face from them and I will see what their end shall be for they are a very froward generation children in whom is no faithfulness. So He talks about hiding His face if you remember in oh gosh what is that? Hezekiah (Hosea 5:15) I believe it is where he talks about in Chapter 5 I will go to My place and I will hide My face from them and see what they would do. It’s just paraphrasing there so it just comes to my mind just thinking of that as we’re reading this.

(Deuteronomy 32:20) But anyway it says He’s going to hide His face from this see what their end shall be for they are very forward generation’s children in whom there is no faithfulness. They have roused me to jealousy with a no God, (Hebrew) v’lo el; literally what it says. In a no God all right? They have provoked Me with their vanities and I will rouse them up with jealousy with a (Hebrew) B’lo am, with a no people all right?

And I will provoke them with a vile nation all right that’s really interesting how God says this. For if fire is kindled in my nostrils and burneth into the depths of the netherworld, of the underneath world or hell as some people translate that. The underneath world and devoureth the earth with her produce and setteth ablaze the foundation of the mouth. And I will heap evils upon them, I will spin My arrows upon them the wasting of a hunger and devouring of the fiery bolt and bitter destruction and the teeth of the beast will send upon them of crawling things of the dust. Without shall the sword bereave in the chambers and the terrorists slain both young men and virgin and the suckling’s with the man of grey hairs.

I thought I would make an end of them; this is interesting watch what He says here; (Hebrew) amar’Tiy efeyhem; I thought I would make an end of them; I would make there memories cease from among men humh. Very terrible so (Hebrew) meenosh zikh’ram; in memory to cease from among men not among men but from men, were it not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation. Now this is very important that’s why I read down this far not just the fact that the Gentiles provoke Israel to jealousy but you needed to see this last part here we’re it not I dreaded the enemy’s; I think in King James they put the word fear, I fear God doesn’t He’s not fearful but God knows what’s going to happen in the end. Were it not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation lest their adversary’s should misdeem, lest they should say our hand is exalted and not the Lord hath wrought all of this; not that HaShem did all this.

Now this is really interesting it’s very interesting in fact I’ve even thought here lately in my own mind; I was really beginning to think about how does the Gentiles provoke Israel to jealousy especially in the day we’re living in now?

You’ve got gosh what thousands of different Christian denominations; at least Sect’s and cults and Klan’s and everything else you can imagine. You’ve got ah; as far as main stream you’ve got a bunch of different denominations on mainstream Christianity and with all these different views that they have and all the different ideology’s I have wondered to myself how in the world are the Gentiles going to provoke the Jews to jealousy? And then I went back and I began to read this again, I even wondered at one point will the 2 witnesses provoke them to jealousy you know because there’s a scripture that speak about them being among the heathen or the nations. And they come from afar away and they’re actually considered foreigner’s when they come but that wasn’t right either that wasn’t it.

Watch what He says; He says He’s going to provoke them to jealousy by a no people but then He gets down here further in the verse and He talks about all the things that He’s going to do to Israel, all the evils that will come upon them. And we have seen this as Israel has been scattered to the 4 corners of the earth the Jewish people both the House of Israel and the House of Judah have gone through unspeakable horrors as being Jews. And I don’t think that just what happened to ah; in Nazi Germany when Hitler went and was trying to kill all the Jews that he possibly could. I think it was just to the House of Judah alone that was being destroyed in that you got to remember Hitler was trying to make sure he could find anybody that even thought or even appeared to be Jewish he was looking for. So no doubt some of the ones that are part of the House of Israel were caught up in that. In my own family I have my father’s side which comes from the House of Israel ah; that were caught up in this massacre. My mother’s side who’s from the House of Judah many, many, many, many, many, many were caught up and killed.

 

So the point is though is all these wicked things were happening to both Houses of Israel because God said that it would happen, He said that we would be hunted, we’d be burned everything else that could happen. You know would devouring, fiery bolt, bitter destruction, teeth of beast I will send upon them with the venom of crawling things of the dust, without shall the sword bereave and the chambers terrorists slaying both young men and virgins, with suckling with the man of grey hairs. So there was no prejudice whatsoever to the evils that would befall Israel because of the sin all the way back to the time of when Moses was here that far back. God doesn’t forget. We might think that in life you do wrong and you sin and you go about with an evil life thinking well God’s really not paying any attention. He’s paying very much attention and He will not forget.

And the only way to escape His wrath is by the Blood of Christ. So let me just make that clear. (Deuteronomy 32) Verse 27 though He says were it not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation lest their adversaries should misdeem, lest they should say our hand is exalted and not Hashem who wrought all of this. They are a nation void of council and there is no understanding in them. If they were wise they would understand this, they would discern their latter end.

Now the question is those last 2 verses I just read to you verse 28 and verse 29 does that apply to Israel or does it apply to the Gentiles? Notice what He says again in verse 27 let’s read it carefully; were it not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation; even though the Gentiles are going to provoke Israel to anger they will also become the enemy! The very Gentiles that provoke the Jews to jealousy become the enemy of God!

 

Think about the story of Joseph while you mediate on this for a moment. Joseph was hated of his own brethren sold him out just like Jesus was hated of His own brethren sold him out and the selling him out caused His Gospel of that day to go to the Gentiles did it not? Did He not feed a world of Gentiles? Did he not feed all the Nations during that great tribulation that came upon them of 7 years? Was it not that it was Joseph and his council before the tribulation that caused them to use a little wisdom during the tribulation period? Did he not bring all the wealth of the world because of his council that he gave Pharaoh, Pharaoh used the council very wisely and Pharaoh became a very wealthy man as a result of the council that Joseph gave? Now Joseph gave the council because he was able to see the vision of what would happen and how to go about saving the world they became slaves to Pharaoh.

The point is; is Joseph came and Joseph knew how to provoke his own brethren to anger when they find out who the brother we hated he’s now the Gentiles are eating of the bread they’re not starving because of our brother. I used to say there’s 2 types to the story, there’s the Anti-type and the type of Christ but there’s also an Anti-type in there as well. And that Anti-type is when you begin to deal with the fact what Pharaoh did. See Pharaoh claims to be God on earth we know that but the Pope of Rome claims to be God on earth. The Pope of Rome claims to take the place of Jesus Christ. Pharaoh claimed to have the authority over Joseph he never had authority over Joseph only what God allowed.   And it’s through the fact that he sees what the Word of God prophesies because the Word of God came to the Pharaoh he heard the Word, he prophesied of what the end would be, what was going to befall them. And he took advantage of the prophecy that Joseph gave, the same thing with Jesus, the same thing with the New Testament, Rome has taken advantage of the prophecies and have exalted himself above the children of Israel.

Because he knew they would be taken away, he knew that they would be provoked to jealousy by a people that were a no nation. And the Gentiles have done just that insomuch that Rome now has control of Mount Zion. So are they being provoked to jealousy? Absolutely! When are they being provoked to jealousy? Not by a people that are true believers. Now when Paul speaks about they were provoked to jealousy back when the Gentiles came in, in Romans yes there was a godly provoking to jealousy but even Israel today when they see the Christians taking over the different Holy Spots in Israel they’re being provoked to jealousy.

But here’s the difference though in the beginning when even in the story of Joseph when Joseph was on earth and his brethren first came down it was a blessing. What had happened through the ministry of Joseph was a blessing the same with Jesus. What happened through the ministry of Jesus was a blessing for the early Christians that were Jews that converted and recognized and believed His message. But what happened? God knew that even though He was going to provoke the Jews to jealousy by a people that were a no people by vial nation.

He also knew; let’s back up to this here. (Hebrew) B’goy naval; He’s being provoke, they’re being provoked to jealousy by vial nation. But down into (Deuteronomy 32) verse 27 God says we’re it not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation. God still considers them an enemy. Lest their adversaries should misdeem, lest they should say our hands is exalted and not the Lord hath wrought all this. For they are a nation void of council, woe! He’s not speaking about Israel I don’t think He is there. (Verse 28 & 29) And there’s no understanding in them, if they were wise they would understand this they would discern their latter end. That could apply to Israel or does it actually apply to this enemy’s that’s provoking? It’s hard to figure that one out.

As Chuck would say what the anti-sedan is and that’s what I’m looking at right here. And that’s what I’m looking at right here. How should one chase a thousand and 2 put ten thousand to flight accept their rock had given them over and the Lord had delivered them up? So anyway the point is that I wanted to bring this to your attention for is that latter end that provocation lest their adversaries should misdeem it. Because like is said Rome is already taken and they have literally put themselves at Mount Zion.

If you go to Romans 11 Paul says here; first let me back up chapter 11 verse; he quotes several different prophecies about Israel. Staring with verse 7 and then Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for but the election hath obtained it and the rest were blinded okay? Now the election in other words the Remnant of Israel that was going to believe they got it, they recognized who Christ was the rest were blinded.

Now this is where I make the stand like Paul said blindness in part has happened to Israel till the fullness of the Gentiles be come in, till the rest of their brethren has come in that is the; that’s a little different there. But he also says according as it is written God hath given them the spirit of slumber eyes if they should not see and ears that they should not hear unto this day. David said let their table be made a snare and a trap and a stumbling block and a recompense unto them. Verse 10; let their eyes be darkened that they may not see and bow down their back all way. Verse 11 I say then have they stumbled that they should fall God forbid but rather through their fall salvation has come unto the Gentiles for to provoke them to jealousy.

 

 

Now that is exactly right the fall allowed the Gospel to go to the Gentiles themselves. For I speak to you Gentiles insomuch that I’m an Apostle of the Gentiles I magnify mine office by any means I may provoke to emulation to them which are of my flesh and might save some of them that’s the remnant that He’s looking to get there. For it is the casting away of them to be reconciling of the world what shall be the receiving of them but life from the dead. Now you can see that in Ezekiel 38 as well.

For if the first fruit be holy the lump is also holy and if the root be holy are the branches and that some of the branches be broken off that thou being a wild olive tree were grafted in among them with them partaken us of the root and fatness of the olive tree boast not against the branches but if thou boasts thou barest not the root but the root thee. Thou will say then the branches were broken off that that I might be grafted in. Well because of unbelief they were broken off that thou stands by faith be not high minded but fear for if God spared not the natural branches take heed lest He also spare not thee. Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God on them which fail severity but toward thee goodness if thou continue in goodness otherwise thou also shall be cut off there’s verse 27!

Yes the Gentiles provoke Israel to jealousy in the beginning and even to this day there is a provocation to Israel by the Gentile Church that is trying to take Israel away from the Jews. I’m not talking about true Christians now please understand me there’s a lot still true Christians that are grafted right into that tree that will not be cut out and they’re Gentile believers, they’re hold right on believing. But this one here that will be cut out of that tree is the one that God says I dread the enemy’s provocation lest their adversaries should misdeem, lest they should say our hand is exalted and not HaShem has wrought all this.

God will bring Rome down and every denominational leader that takes his flock with him will be cut out of that tree that they were grafted into they will all be taken down and burned.

Verse 23 in Romans 11 and they also still if they abide not still in unbelief shall be graft in for God is able to graft them in again where if thou were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature and were graft contrary to nature into a good olive tree how much more shall these which be the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree? For I would not brethren that you should be ignorant of this mystery lest you should be wide in your own conceits that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.

And by the way that fullness of the Gentiles be come in is the part about Ephraim it’s not about, it’s not about; I used to really be confused about that. Do you realize that that has nothing to do; the fullness of the Gentiles be come in has nothing to do with the Gentiles that provoke them to jealousy? Now it is combined together because Ephraim assimilated into the Nations but he says; but that’s why he called; now see this is when he calls it a mystery. For I would not brethren that you should be ignorant of this mystery lest you should be wise in your own conceit the blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in and so all Israel shall be saved as it is written.

See all Israel there’s the fullness of the Gentiles that’s the Gentiles that are also sewn in among the Nations through Ephraim. Do you realize that one of the reasons why He brought the Gentile people in as well was because He needed laborers for the field? Remember when He said, He tells His own disciples I’ll make you fishers of men? God says I’ll send fishers out, I’ll send hunters out that’s what He’s done.

And so many of the Gentiles today that have come in that have no Jewish blood whatsoever you’ve been fulfilling that mystery right there which is not the same as the Gentiles being grafted into the branch. Because He calls this fullness of the Gentiles and then He says in verse 26 and so all Israel shall be saved it is written there shall come out of Zion the Deliverer and there shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob for this is My Covenant unto them when I shall take away their sins. Imagine that one. Now if I’m not mistaken let me look at this real quick I think that’s Obadiah he quotes that from. Yes it is Obadiah verse 21 in King James you write; and saviors; plural, shall come up out of Mount Zion to judge the Mount of Esau and the Kingdom shall be the Lords. Maybe He doesn’t quote it from there but that’s the one I think of quite often there.

And literally in Hebrew that is Messiah’s, Anointed Ones in other words there’s 2 or more than one I should say anyway. And here where he speaks of this here ah; let me see where he’s actually taking that from there. He is oh from Isaiah 59:20 I’ve actually got a place marked in Isaiah as well so let me; so I don’t lose that spot there let me just real quick tell you the Isaiah 59:20 and the Redeemer shall come to Zion and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob saith the Lord, as for Me this is My Covenant with them saith the Lord My Spirit is upon thee and My Words which I have put in thy mouth shall not depart out of thy mouth nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seeds sees saith the Lord from henceforth and forever.

All right now; I wanted to take you too ah; a couple of other spots here. Let me just quickly find this here ah; and I did not mark that one in Isaiah there. Oh well I was really wanting to share that with you but anyway. Just taking you back to these passages though just as a reminder there it’s fascinating to see how God is dealing with Israel.

And to see and by the way let me take you back again to Obadiah though because I mentioned to you that ah; oh I know what it was in Isaiah 42. All right let me take you to Ezekiel 36 I wanted to just a little bit here I just had to share with you as well concerning these things here. Ezekiel 36 verse 1also thou son of man prophecy unto the mountains of Israel and say you mountains of Israel here the Word of the Lord, the Word of Hashem. Thus saith the Lord God because the enemy has said against you ah-ha even the Ancient High places are ours in possession (chuckling).

You remember what I just read to you now from verse 27 of Deuteronomy 32 were not that I dreaded the enemy’s provocation lest the adversary shall say; should misdeem lest they should say our hand is exalted and not the Lord has wrought all of this? It’s not only a matter of provoking to jealousy their trying to take everything.

Therefore prophecy and say; thus saith the Lord God because they have made you desolate; oh by the way we’re in Ezekiel 36 still verse 3; and swallow you up on every side that you might be a possession into the residue of the heathen and you are taken up in the lips of the talkers and are in infamy of the people.   Therefore you mountains of Israel hear the Word of the Lord God thus saith the Lord God to the mountains and to the hills and to the rivers, to the valleys, to the desolate ways and to the cities that are forsaken which became a prey and a derision to the residue of the heathen that are round about. Therefore thus saith the Lord God surely in the fire of My jealousy have I spoke against the residue of the heathen and against all Idumea which have appointed My Way and into their possession with the joy of all their heart with despiteful minds, to cast it out for a prey.

 

Prophesy therefore concerning the land of Israel, and say unto the mountains, and to the hills, to the rivers, and to the valleys, thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I have spoken in my jealousy and in my fury, because ye have borne the shame of the heathen. That’s what’s happening in Israel today they provoked Israel to jealousy the Gentiles did in the beginning. The Gentiles have still provoked Israel to jealousy but the heathen becomes; the Gentiles becomes the enemy.

And clearly in Romans those that did not continue in faith and belief would be cut out and the natural branches would be grafted in again. And that’s why that scripture in Romans is so important and especially when you look at Romans and you understand it in the right passage see. As he said verse 20 or verse 18 boast not against the branches but if thou boast thy barest not the root this is Romans 11 by the way; but the root deep.   Thou will say then the branches are broken off that I might be grafted in. Well because of unbelief there were broken off and thou standeth by faith be not high-minded but fear.

Remember as the story of Joseph as we started in the beginning of this message, the story of Joseph; Joseph in his beginning he was just like Jesus he brought salvation for both Jews and Gentiles alike. Pharaoh took advantage of the message that Joseph had; he took advantage of the gift that he had and he prospered insomuch that not only did he get all the lands and made everybody slaves eventually he even made the Jews slaves long after Joseph’s death. And the ones that had provoked Israel to jealousy at one time in this case here before Israel was even a nation back when it was just; Jacob’s sons this provocation later became the Egyptian’s exalting themselves over Israel. And by the way I have to show you this later but the taskmaster’s I believe were actually Jewish people.

It’s been several verses I’ve looked at that I need to share that with you sometime just like it was in the Holocaust when they would use Jewish police against the Jewish people. I believe the Taskmaster’s were also Jews.

But Joseph in what he did Pharaoh took advantage of that and became a very wealthy man the same thing with the Catholic Church. When they formed that in 300 in Nicaea 325 however that was when the Catholic Church was first under Constantine. The Catholic Church grew into a massive Empire and he used the words of Joseph to do it but just like it was with Pharaoh there rose up a Pharaoh that did not know Joseph any longer and that’s the way it is today. The Pharaoh on the Throne today in Rome Pope Francis does not know Joseph. He doesn’t know Jesus only a lip service of course, only in historical records just as the Pharaoh’s back then could have looked at the historical records. But he’s amassed a wealthy of an Empire and that wealth has even come to a place where he can go into Israel and declare whatever he wants and force the Jewish people to give it to him and so still Israel’s being provoked to jealousy by the Gentiles. But now the Gentiles have become the enemy not all the Gentiles mind you.

Remember in Romans Paul clearly speaks about being grafted in and only the ones; only the branches that are in unbelief are taken out not all those branches. Boast not against the branches but if thou boast thou dearest not the root but the root thee, thou will say then the branches were broken off that I might be grafted in. See there’s your denominational Churches that are in the replacement theology they were broke off I was put in hum.

 

 

Well because of unbelief they were broken off and thou standeth by faith be not high-minded but fear. For if God spared not the natural branches take lest he spare not thee behold therefore the goodness and severity of God on them which fell severity but toward thee goodness. And thou continue in goodness otherwise thou shall be cut off and they also if they abide not still in unbelief shall be grafted in for God is able to graft them in again. For if thou were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature and were grafted contrary to nature unto a good olive tree how much more shall these which be the natural branches be grafted into their own olive tree.

For I would not brethren that you should be ignorant of this mystery lest you should be wise in your own conceits that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in and so all Israel shall be saved. As it is written there shall come out of Zion the Deliverer and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob for this is My Covenant to them when I shall take away their sins. Concerning the Gospel their enemies for your sake but as touching the election their beloved for the Father’s sakes.

Rome – Resetting the Stage

Rome – Resetting the Stage

2,000 years ago Rome ruled the House of Judah and the Samaritans with an iron fist. Israel then made the grave mistake as it is doing now; made a covenant with Rome supposedly to bring peace and safety to the region. However, Israel fail victim to the devious plot of Rome and became a conquered nation by making an alliance with its greatest enemy – the descendants of Esau.

This age old feud between Esau and Jacob has always started the same and will end as usual with Israel being the victor. More than 4,000 years ago Jacob deceived Esau in order to get his brothers birthright, and though cunning in his way of doing this he still managed to find favor in the sight of God for this devious act. Esau on the other hand despised his birthright until he lost it. Then he wanted to kill Jacob for stealing his birthright.

The battle too has followed much the same theme, only time has changed the scene. When Jacob was moved in his heart by God to return home to Canaan (Modern Day Israel) the land God had sworn to give to Abraham and his descendants his brother Esau armed himself and his men intent on killing his brother Jacob. Jacob tried in vain to purchase peace with Esau offering him gifts of every sort. Then Jacob fearing for his life prayed all night until he met God and wrestled with His Angel refusing to release Him until He blessed Jacob. In so doing Jacob’s name was changed to Israel – a Prince with God.

The alliance that the House of Judah had made with Rome 2,000 years ago was once again forcing the Jewish people then to seek the Face of God for deliverance from the death threats of Esau. Israel had some faithful descendants who wrestled with God for the blessing in return God sent His only Son to deliver them from Esau. Those who believed that Yashua (Jesus) was Messiah to them gave He power to become sons and daughters of God – Princes and Princesses.

Now we come to the final show down and the Children of Israel have been moved by God to return to their Homeland only to find Esau (Rome) in the way. Neither has Esau (Rome) lost the jealousy nor the hatred he has had for his brother Jacob the past 4000 years. Esau has become far more cunning in his ways of revenge but his tactics are much the same. To God’s displeasure as it was with Abraham and Sarah, he still has chosen to court the Arabic nations even creating Islam in the process – one of his many wives.

Even though Israel has made it back to their homeland, with the help of Esau I might add, Israel still is governed by fear. Modern day Israel once again is trying to make a covenant with Esau, Rome, with hopes that they will be secure from their Arabic enemies. So the politicians of Israel lavish gifts at the feet of Rome and works hard at appeasing Rome’s lovers (The United States and The European Union) franticly trying to come up with a solution that may bring peace. However Esau, will never make true peace as he and his descendants have shown for the past 4,000 years. No, Israel too will wrestle with God very soon and in one night she will be victorious!

Verse of the day

For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous person; though perhaps for the good person someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. — Romans 5:6-8 (NASV)
