The apostle John introduced only three more commands beside the initial one. The first
command is for God's army to prepare the Coming of the Lord for the Rapture, and next three
commands are because three anti-Christian offenses arose on this way.
The likeness should be found in relation to another people of God, Israel. A prophet, who saw
Seven Scrolls, the prophet Zechariah examined it and saw two trees and two branches connected
to it. (Zechariah 4:14) Accordingly, God has appointed two men to speak about the Heavenly
Book to accomplish their understanding. The apostle John spoke to the world of Christianity,
and Zechariah to Israel.
Zechariah spoke about a messiah, "whose name is the Branch, under whom there will be fertile growth." (Zechariah 6:12) From it the central Branch holding the Scroll of the Menorah belongs to Him.bib273
However, three Scrolls go out from it in one direction toward Christianity (the three
anti-reactions in the Christian world) and three Scrolls in another direction toward Israel. The
Messiah is for both nations. Look at the menorah. You may notice the Messiah (Branch) holds
all branches (Scrolls) because all other branches come out from the central one. Thus the Lord
Jesus Christ has everything under His control.
Zechariah speaks that "he will build the temple of the Lord, and he will be clothed with
majesty and will sit and rule on his throne. And he will be a priest on his throne. And there
will be harmony between the two." (verse 13) This is the goal of the central Scroll but should
also be for the three more Scrolls. They should build the Temple for Him, who will be not only
the High Priest but also sit on the Davidic throne.bib274
As stated, "the menorah," in the relation to Israel, has to prepare the (Second) Coming of the Messiah on the Earth to the Temple. Heavenly armies will achieve this. "God came from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. His glory covered the Heavens and his praise filled the Earth. His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden. Plague went before him; pestilence followed his steps. He stood, and shook the Earth; he looked, and made the nations tremble. The ancient mountains crumbled and the age-old hills collapsed. His ways are eternal. Were you angry with the rivers, O LORD? Was your wrath against the streams? Did you rage against the sea when you rode with your HORSES and your victorious CHARIOTS?"bib275
"You uncovered your bow, you called for many arrows . . . Sun and moon stood still in the Heavens at the glint of your flying arrows, at the lightning of your flashing spear. In wrath you strode through the Earth and in anger you threshed the nations. You came out to deliver your people, to save your anointed one. You crushed the leader of the land of wickedness, you stripped him from head to foot. Selah." (Habakkuk 3:3-13)bib276
Hosea is the prophet who speaks about the fall of Israel and the end times (6:1-3). His calling is
to help us understand God's switching His interest from Christianity to Israel in the end times
when the Heavenly Book will bring all humans to the Lord. His children should lead us in
understanding future changes between God's nations.
The first one was born, "the Lord said to him, Give him the name of Jezreel, for after a little
time I will send punishment for the blood of Jezreel on the line of Jehu, and put an end to
the kingdom of Israel. And in that day I will let the bow of Israel be broken in the valley of
Jezreel." (Hosea 1:4-5) If Israel's ten tribes are the parable for the Christian world, the Lord
said:
Afterwards Hosea's wife "gave birth to a daughter. And the Lord said, 'Give her the name Lo-ruhamah; for I will not again have mercy on Israel, to give them forgiveness. But I will have mercy on Judah and will give them salvation by the Lord their God, but not by the bow or the sword or by fighting or by horses or horsemen.'" (verse 6-8)
The final victory will come for both nations when the Millennium is established. This pictures the last son. "And the Lord said, 'Give him the name Lo-ammi (not my people); for you are not my people, and I will not be your God. But still the number of the children of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which may not be measured or numbered; and in place of its being said to them, You are not my people, it will be said to them, You are the sons of the living God And the children of Israel and the children of Judah will come together and take for themselves one head, and will go up from the land, for great will be the day of Jezreel.'" (Hosea 1:9-11)
Ancient Israel entered our world (in Canaan) by 1197 BC, which for their existence outside the world (1667 BC--1197 BC) were 470 years or 67 years' weeks. This could happen in our time by the year when they put the Jews' existence on the table of the world's movements. The world registered them in the night of November 9-10, 1938, when the German troopers burned 267 synagogues and arrested 20,000 people. It was called Kristallnacht (the night of broken glass). If we take Kristallnacht as their entrance on the war scene, the broken First Seal goes to the year (1938 - 67 =) 1871.log255
The world's reality was the industrial age (Industrial Revolution) and Social Revolution started by 1870. Some disagree and place the start of our modern age in 1848. That was the year of revolutions across Europe when monarchies fell. I consider that as the preparation period for realization of the Heavenly Book on Earth (if the Church has to be in Heaven during the Seventh Scroll then why not to start a period early). Our age is the age of industrialization and democracy, though not in nationalism and monarchies. Therefore, we need the democracy. For instance, this could be the establishment of the 15th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1870, which prohibited federal or state governments from infringing on a citizen's right to vote "on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude."log256
Everything is in the Lord's hands because He holds the Heavenly Book and breaks the Seven Seals. Everything is under control. No one may overcome because the Holy Spirit gives the commands to the angels, come. Clearly, the initiation must be from God the Creator. His relation to Israel like to the nation seem to be invisible as Israel was in Egypt. Still the formation of Israel started but not in Palestine. Ghettos abolished in Italy: 1870; Reform Judaism in U.S. establishes Union of American Hebrew Congregations: 1873; Albert Einstein; First Conference of Hovevei Zion Movement: 1884; First Jewish Zionist congress: 1897; The first Hebrew high school, opens in Tel Aviv: 1905; American Jewish Committee is founded to safeguard Jewish rights internationally: 1906. ...log257
The beginning of Israel was when Joseph's family came to Egypt. Some eighteenth-century liberals advocated an improvement of the Jewish status and equal rights were achieved in western countries. They lived there like Jacob's family in Egypt. Nevertheless, lords of that world oppressed them where democracy did not exist. 500,000 Jews flee Russia, 90% go to the United States: 1903-1907. Anyway, Jews were grieving about destruction of their homeland like Jeremiah in his Lamentation. The first chapter goes for period of te first Scroll and the second for the period of the Second Scroll.bib281
The first settlement in Palestine was at the second half of the nineteenth century. They were
considering to inhabit Palestine from the first Zionist Congress. Four-hundred years of Ottoman
rule ended by British conquest and by the Balfour Declaration Palestine is the homeland for
Jews. 1917.
Here could fit the alliance of Israel with Gibeonites. The battlefield is for Christians' sakes and
therefore Jews could be considered like unbelievers (they did not accept their Messiah). They
are not spiritual descendants of the Messiah as Christians are but are allies as the Gibeonites
were to ancient Israel. The people of Gibeon had made a treaty of peace because Israel rode out
to conquer. Similarly, Jews made a treaty with the Christianity in 1917 because they ride as a
conqueror. Jews could live under Christian Great Britain.log258
The Gibeonites had come to Israel before the Lord gave the fourth command to Joshua. Therefore, Israel is already on the battlefield of Christianity in the Third Scroll.
In the relation of this alliance, Moses spoke about Judah, "Give ear, O Lord, to the voice of Judah and make him one with his people: let your hands take up his cause, and be his help against his attackers." (Deuteronomy 33:7)bib282
Israel was in Egypt 430 years, which are 61.43 years' weeks. From 1870 you come to the year 1932 (the Exodus). They were years in the desert when they were not slaves or a state. Transforming 40 years leads to 1938. They are years when Hitler came into power in 1932 but did not attack Jews. A holocaust of human creativity in the arts started in 1937 in Germany. Jews have entered a world scene on the night of Nov. 9-10, 1938 (Kristallnacht). If I use another picture just for the tribe Judah, because the Second World War was between states of the world of Christianity, they fought as the tribe after Joshua died in the age of 110 years. Joshua was the young (teenage) aide of Moses in the desert. (Exodus 33:11) Therefore, Judah started to fight ca. 80--100 years after the Exodus (1237 BC - 100 = 1137 BC). They also took Jerusalem (Judges 1:8), but not the whole city. (II Samuel 5:6-10) One hundred years are ca. 13 years' weeks, so 1932 + 13 is the year 1945. The World War II) ended by 1945, and local wars started.log259
Israel issued its declaration of independence on May 14, 1948. The surrounding Arab countries attacked them. This history related to the period of the Judges. The Lord was their king, and He inspired divine men to lead the Israelite tribes against their enemies to drive out the first nations. (Judges 2:3) Today Israel Still has problems with people who lived there before their declaration of independence. I conclude from Judges that this period is when the Lord works for Christianity, the fourth march for them, but also to help the Israelites to survive in the world.bib283
Zechariah spoke the first chariot had red horses (6:2). It means: what the red power first had proclaimed to the Christians, it was pulled to Israel and tried to attack the Jewish state Meanwhile, in the Fourth Scroll the pale horse attacked Christianity. Therefore, the white horse fought the pale horse with the riders, Death and Hades, and the red horse with the rider, Communism. The fascist Hitler led the first ones, and the second red dragon was Stalin. They cooperated in the beginning of the World War II (the war against Poland).
New red horses had been aroused in the Middle East to destroy Israel. Egyptian Nasser led the Arabs, the potential enemies of Israel. He came to power through a revolutionary military group that forced King Farouk from the throne in 1952. Nasser proposed an economic system known as Arabic socialism. He took this from the communists. That is why the biblical picture of the first chariot pulled by the red horses fits well to this movement.log260
Nasser continued in communist manners in the Suez Canal Company, His action provoked an Israeli invasion of the Sinai Peninsula and an Anglo-French invasion of the Canal Zone (the Suez Crisis, 1956), but the invaders were forced to withdraw because of the United Nations' pressure. log261
Backed by Soviets, Nasser became the acknowledged leader of the Arab world and was admired in the emerging Third World nations. His ideas are detailed in his book, The Philosophy of the Revolution.
We could see the red power's influence also in the governments of the Jewish state. The first prime ministers, born in the land under Russia, led political the Labor party and liked establishing "communists' cooperatives" called a kibbutz (an Israeli settlement whose members collectively owned farmland and shared equally in work, housing, food, and whatever profits accrued).log262
Brigade Judah had two more tribes: Issachar and Zebulon. Moses said about them: " Be glad, Zebulon, in your going out; and, Issachar, in your tents. They will send out the word for the people to come to the mountain, taking there the offerings of righteousness: for the store of the seas will be theirs, and the secret wealth of the sand." (Deut. 33:18-19) Israel sent word for the people to come to the land of Israel. They prepared conditions for immigration in the Law of Return. Any Jew could enter Israel, after which he or she was entitled to automatic citizenship. An influx of European refugees doubled the population by 1952. They come mostly people of Issachar (Ukraine and neighbors as Slovakia) and out from colonies (Zebulun)log263
Their economy went in the direction of Moses' "store of the seas and secret wealth of the sand." A variety of new industries were established because sea trade and agricultural productivity from sand (the desert) increased greatly.bib284
Jeremiah describes feeling Jews in these periods in Lamentations 3:1-44. Jews suffering from fascists ends with words "I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. My soul has them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness."
Jews were forced to look for their heritage. Many tried to flee to Palestine because the fascist's persecution them. They had to put the Lord first as their heritage and hope in Him.bib285
Christians think Jews suffered from fascists because they rejected Jesus Christ. This is the sin against their Law, (was killed without sin). Therefore, laws could not help them. Fascists murdered their children without any court. Then it was the sin against the Creator because everything had risen through Him. (Colossians 1:16) They could taste as the Creation had; any land did not want to accept their refuges. Then it was the sin against their forefathers because they derived their participation on God through Him who touched Jacob's flesh. (Genesis 32) He led them from Egypt through Moses. Therefore, their homeland, according to Balfour Declaration, was not receiving them in war times.
Still they had to think that their God exists because He punishes them for their sins. Every father who chastises his children soon will have compassion and love for them. God does the same. Therefore, Israel was established as a Jewish state. Israel had fought several wars with its Arab neighbors, who refused to recognize the State of Israel for several decades. At the end of the first war (1949), Israel occupied one-third more territory than had been allocated in the 1947.
Satan thought not born children could not be Christians and even their parents must be punished by God for this sin. But what does the Lord say? "When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed.." (Revelation 6:9-11)
Spiritually inherited abilities to destroy human lives were found in pregnant women and women who refused to become mothers. Spiritual freedom called for spiritual decisions about a human being having physical form. This is the fourth Habakkuk woe: "Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk, so that he can gaze on their naked bodies." (2:15-18) The free choice could be considered that wine caused the shedding of human blood, taking the human life. In this were the described techniques of abortion by the Old Testament vocabulary. They called the poison an amniotic fluid that killed the child. Then they used drugs to cause the womb to contract and expel its contents, thus receiving a killed baby from a womb ("can gaze on their naked bodies"). Sometimes they used a drug after intercourse to stop new life just in its beginning.bib286
"You will be filled with shame instead of glory. Now it is your turn! Drink and be exposed! The cup from the Lord's right hand is coming around to you, and disgrace will cover your glory." They used a procedure called vacuum aspiration or vacuum curettage. The embryo or fetus and placenta were drawn into the tube through vacuum pressure.
According to Habakkuk, abortion would cause the punishment of the Christian world soon: "the cup from the Lord's right hand . . ."bib287
"The violence you have done to Lebanon will overwhelm you, and your destruction of
animals will terrify you. For you have shed man's blood; you have destroyed lands and
cities and everyone in them." Lebanon is the narrow, fertile coastal plain, a picture for a hollow
plastic tube with a hole near its end to insert into the uterus. As many swift small rivers flow
from the Lebanon Mountains to the Mediterranean Sea, so were the souls of death, the unborn
babies in the world of dead ones.
In this Scroll, between 1975 and 1990, civil strife drove hundreds of thousands of Lebanese from
their homes. Many foreigners and wealthy Lebanese left the country during this period. By 1995,
it was estimated that three times as many Lebanese lived abroad as in Lebanon.
The same was with the children. Perhaps as many as three-fourths of the conceptions were
spontaneously aborted. Such a percentage of children may live outside our world.log265
"Of what value is an idol, since a man has carved it? Or an image that teaches lies? For he who makes it trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak." Compare Psalms 106:38. "And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood." Created theories about women's right to choose and images of the fetus not being human will help no one.
Teachers do not speak about abortion using this text. They speak of killing brothers and servants in the Church in the Great Tribulation because they read these words: "their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they." However, the Lord's Words for His servants and brothers are used in letters to the seven churches (Revelation 2-3). The Apostle John delivers now the Words of God the Father for the created world. He is the Creator. If they "had been slain because of the word of God" then the Gospel still is the rider in the world.bib288
For Christians, the words used, "servants and brothers," refers to servants of the Gospel, and brothers of everyone in this service. Our modern world uses a similar term, "fellow servants," for anyone does their share in the service. The word "brothers" refers to persons who grow up in a family, with the same father and the same mother. In any case, unborn babies suffer the same fate. The reason that they are unborn is because of laws allowing abortion; symbolically those laws are their fathers. The idea is that abortion stems from the right of women to decide the fate of a life in their wombs. This fact, that they exist, are alive in spiritual world, should serve to reveal the sin of our world (genetic research proves also that one is a living being from conception onward). A revealed sin leads to repentance or God's punishment. Thus, testimony proving that unborn human beings are living beings reveals a sin to our world, and leads many to repentance. Their unborn children are revealed them in their dreams.log266
They are under the altar. If these souls are under the altar, then can never be saints. The altar is a place where people can come to God and ask for mercy; if the souls are under the altar, then no decision about them has been made. This means that THEY ARE NOT SAINTS, and could not know about Jesus Christ.bib289
God decided their fates in the Fifth Scroll. He accepted them, and they became not merely souls but spirits (as had those who died in Christ) because God gave them white robes. Now they could belong with those saints in Heaven (Revelation 4:6).bib290
They called out for avenging. The New Testament describes saints as those who did not call for revenge. Dying people in the Lord Jesus Christ asked forgiveness for their killers (Acts 7:60). But these souls cried for revenge. Those people, being with God in Heaven, do not care about Earthly judgments. People in Heaven are saved thank to God's Mercy. Those who bask in His mercy do not have any right to call for revenge. Saints are people who died, yet received the eternal spirit in their life. The eternal spirit is represented by the white, saintly robe each wears before the Resurrection.
If "they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed," then the Resurrection of the Righteous could not have occurred at this point. "A little longer" could mean, then, that just a short period remains until their resurrection; so one more Scroll should run, and then the people in the white robes would be resurrected.
Nothing living in humans can be lost before God. (Matthew 10:28-30) Afterwards, every soul (not earthly flesh) should come before Him at the Last Judgment. Always sentencing follows rules. Rules should be known to everyone, and therefore, they are published in the Bible. Laws for unborn souls are in the Bible. They are in the last book (Revelation) because the abortion rides in the end times.bib291
The Lord Jesus Christ introduces Himself now (the Fifth Lamp) as He "who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars." He refers here to the reality God the Son. Like Seven Spirits and either the Man, Jesus Christ, is not God the Son but: the Lord Jesus Christ + Seven Spirits = God the Son. Although the reality of God (God the Son) was not met during his ministry, even in his corpse, (Jesus Christ called himself the Man, or the Son of the Man) still we consider him to be God. And therefore we should remember this and do not call undelivered baby or fetus any being. Thus shows it is period of solving spirits without flesh.log267
According to His last words for the previous church, "Only hold on to what you have until I come" and now His words "Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it," Christians have already received all of God's Gifts, and should be the perfect evangelists until the end of time. However, they are not using the gifts very well, because Jesus says, "I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God." So, churches opened to these gifts have become traditional churches, and the Lord calls upon them to repent. On the contrary, the Lord has blessed the denominations that have been traditional since the days of the Early Church. As reformation occurs in the Catholic Church, Catholics can again read the Bible. The Bible is not reserved just for their priests anymore, but is available to every Catholic. Charismatic renewal has given God's gifts to the Catholic Church. This first began at Duquesne University in the USA, in 1967.bib292
The Lord dislikes dirtiness (soil) in Christianity. The Law considers spiritualism as soiled sin. Spiritualists communicate with the dead. We put our dead into the ground, into the soil (2 Samuel 28:13). The Lord dislikes the practice of praying to dead people (Mary, Peter, and the saints) in the reawakened Catholic Churches. New Age believers go further, and call upon the spirits of dead people and beings from other worlds. The assumption of their messages is that a "new age" has come for our Earth.log268
The adherents of the Unification Church, the "Moonies," soil Christianity in practicing their so-called Marriage Supper of the Lamb. The Reverend Moon founded the Holy Spirit Association for the Unification of World Christianity, later known as the Unification Church, in 1954. After an unsuccessful attempt to establish God's Kingdom by fathering the first children of God's new generation (he was accused of having sex with converted female students), Moon started to practice a ritual he called the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, or simply the Blessing. Moonies have taken the marriage supper from Heaven (Revelation 19:9) and now hold it on soil, on the Earth. They enter the marriage supper in Earthly flesh (with soil on their clothes), so they are without Heavenly wedding garments (Heavenly flesh in Resurrection). According to the Lord's words (Matthew 23:11-14), God shall cast them into outer darkness for this. After the Reverend Moon married his most recent wife, he married three other couples among his closest followers. One year later, thirty-three more couples were married; these were called the 36 couples with patriarchal status. From this point, the numbers expanded dramatically (5,800 couples were married in a single ceremony in 1982), and the Unification Church now claims that the Reverend Moon has Blessed millions.log269
The Lord promises to persons who have not soiled their clothes: "They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels." This is the same like for these under the altar in the Fifth Scroll and therefore letters to te Churches are connected to Scrolls.log270 .
This is also the Lord's testimony that soon the Resurrection and the Rapture will occur. Resurrected and raptured people should be introduced to the God the Father. He is in Heaven, on God's Throne, and therefore they shall stand at God's Throne. They will be introduced as the new Heavenly beings added to the host of angels (angels are Heavenly beings having Heavenly flesh). Their names will never be blotted from the Book of Life, because they are already eternal beings in the Lord Jesus Christ. They will be dressed completely in white; not only will their spirits be all in white, but so will their bodies. Only after this occurs can the true Wedding Supper of the Lamb begin.log271
William Branham, claiming to be a Pentecostal teacher and a prophet, prophesized falsely that "by 1977 all denominations would be consumed by the World Council of Churches under the control of the Roman Catholics, that the Rapture would take place, and that the world would be destroyed" (Burgess and McGee, Pentecostal and Charismatic Movements, p. 96). Branham was an occultist: he claimed to be the tool of a being from the spiritual world, whom he called the angel from Revelation 10. In the spirit of occultism, leaders of Branhamism hastened to recast his teachings in a new mold. According to them, believers in this prophecy had misunderstood his words, and the Rapture of the Church had indeed occurred on the date given by Branham. From that date the Church was raptured and did not exist anymore, having changed into the Bride of the Lamb. Therefore followers of Branham's prophecy are already, collectively, the Bride of the Lamb, although in soiled clothesbib293
If the Church still continues then Holy Spirit should be seen among Christians. The apostle John did not show Him. I understand this is because the Fifth Scroll is the first One from the other Side of the Menorah as being appointed for Israel. Then, why not to derive His activities from the history of Israel. The Bible shows God's Spirit in the supreme power of two prophets of those times, Elijah and Elisha. Elijah is considered to be the prophet who stands before the Day of the Lord (Malachi 4:5).bib294
His name means "God the Lord, the strong Lord." The prophet Elijah represents the activity of the Holy Spirit among Christians during the time of the first Scroll on another side, the Fifth Scroll. Therefore, if the Holy Spirit spoke of horses and commanded the Heavenly Army to fight the movements against Christianity, then Elijah should also speak of horses. In fact, he does. He demonstrated that the Heavenly Army destroyed two horses in 2 Kings 1:9-13. This means that there were already two anti-powers present -- anti-horses in the colors of Red and Black who rose against Israel -- but the Heavenly Army won this battle.bib295
Elijah shows, in regard to the third horses, that they will be peaceful (2 Kings 1:14-15) and thus lack significant opposition. This agrees with Zechariah (White Horses) and reality.bib296
Like are not any faces of the Holy Spirit and any horses, neither the Catholic Church pictures events. Yet, how they can when reformation entered Catholic Church and even the revive for this period started among Catholics (Charismatic renewal at Duquesne University). In USA were also dramatic changes. The first Roman Catholic elected President in history, John Kennedy entered the White House in 1961. He was assassinated in November, 1963.log272
The First Vatican Council occurred because the Lord opened the First Scroll of the Heavenly Book. Thus, the Second Vatican Council should show a similar change, the end of the battles for the sake of Christianity. On October 11, 1962, the Second Vatican Council began. Four sessions convened; the last three (1963-65) were presided over by Pope Paul VI, who succeeded John XXIII as pontiff in June 1963.log273
Another page of modern history also shows that Scrolls of the other side of the menorah are open. The new face was seen in connection to space. The Soviet cosmonaut, Yuri Gagarin, was the first man in space on April 12, 1961. The first Soviet manned spacecraft, Vostok, participated in six manned spaceflights from 1961 to 1963.log274
Our age was not marked only by cosmology but also by computers. The computer industry entered each field by small, efficient, and relatively inexpensive mini-computers, first produced in 1963 (Digital Equipment Corporation).log275
The world, or at least the Christian world, was at an outbreak of a nuclear war in October, 1962 (Cuban Missile Crisis). But a war or wars were not and therefore it is called the period of cold war. Berlin Wall was build and stood till the end of the Fifth Scroll. If some wars were, Vietnam, they did not have any sense because battlefield was the Middle East.log276
Alexander Dubcek had become a leader in the Slovak Communist party (1963), which later was also the Czechoslovak Communist party that led the military forces of the Warsaw Pact to invade Czechoslovakia in 1968.log277
This goes to the year 989 BC, in the Kingdom of David. David came on the throne in Jerusalem (1 Kings 2:11) David reigned 33 years in Jerusalem. That could picture the beginning of the Fifth Seal and the first for Israel's side. Events should run so as pictures Davidic dynasty ruling from Jerusalem.log278
Then Solomon reigned in peace, which could refer to the next 6 years Israel was the dominant military power in the region.bib298
Then the kingdom split. This could be seen when Egypt and Syria attacked Israel on Oct. 6,
1973, pushing Israeli forces several miles behind the 1967 cease-fire lines. Israel was thrown
off-guard, partly because the attack came on the Day of Atonement, the most sacred Jewish
religious day. Although Israel recovered from the initial setback, it failed to regain all the
territory lost in the first days of fighting because the UN and the United States halted it.
Israel recognized that international forum could not be accepted because of the lack of allies.
This means that Christian-world states who should have been their allies, according to God,
were not. Only the United States were their allies. So a split came. bib299
Shishak, king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem, he carried off the treasures of the royal palace.. Arab Oil Embargo announced. and truce agreement signed with Egypt at "Kilometer 101." (November 11, 1973bib300
The history of Judah spoke that Abijah won war over Jeroboam ca, 14 years after Shishak's
invasion (War in 1973). Abijah's speech preceded this war. In it, he talked about God's will for
Jerusalem to rule to all territories of Palestine.
This goes to 1975. The strange and unlikely invitation of the Palestinian Liberation
Organization (PLO) came to all Jews, who had fled from Arab states, were welcome to return
and exercise their full rights. The invitation excluded Jews who were Zionists because they were
directed against Palestinian Arabs. Zionists consider Jerusalem as the capital city of all Jews
and the land of Palestine as their homeland. The Christians published advertise this in their
main newspapers. That was defeated by Arabic deeds, and the Christian world had loses
because they were the propagators of falsehoods.log279
The history of Israel speaks about killing the second king of Israel, Nadab, and thus changing the
dynasty in its neighbors less than three years' weeks after Shishack's invasion.
This could refer to Sadat abrogating a friendship treaty with the USSR in March, 1976. The
USSR lost on this main world battlefield in the Middle East.
Then Zimri killed Baasha's dynasty. These murders did not make him a king because Omri
overcame him.
Muslim fundamentalists assassinated Anwar Sadat, the second president of Egypt, in 1981, but
they did not take the power in the surrounding state of Israel.log280
Omri fought for the power with Tibni and won. So, three kings died: Baasha, Zimri, Tibni.
In the USSR, Brezhnev died in 1982. Next, two leaders, Yuri Vladimirovich Andropov and
Konstantin Ustinovich Chernenko, each lasted under a year. Three shepherds died in short time
and changed the dynasty in Russia, Egypt, and Poland.bib301
"And in one month I put an end to the three keepers of the flock; for my soul was tired of them, and their souls were disgusted with me."bib302 (Zechariah 11:8)
Then Omri died, and Achab came to power. Twice, Achab defeated Ben-Hadad, the big army of Syria.
This could picture the change to Mikhail Gorbachev in the USSR in 1985. Their movement
touched the Middle East because the Arabs lost the support of Russia. The Soviet Union played
an active role in the Third World and the Middle East from Khrushchev (1953) to the death of
Brezhnev in 1982. They were defeated in the Middle East and the Eastern Block (Yugoslavia and
Poland), where the communism was not strong.
Asa in Judah led the victorious war with Ethiopia and Libya. (II Chronicles 16:8) Zerah had a million men, who were destroyed. This could refer to Mohammar Qaddafi's commitment to unifying the Arab world in his opposition to Israel and the United States.bib303
Asa built the fortified cities since the land was at peace. In 1980 they formally proclaimed the entire city of Jerusalem as Israel's capital and in 1981, annexed the Golan Heights. They increased the Jewish West Bank settlement.
Asa made an agreement with Aram (Syria) to force Baasha not to attack the Kingdom of Judah.
(II Chronicles 16).
Israel tried to use occupied territories for peace. They offered the Sinai in exchange for a peace
treaty and broke the unity of enemies (mainly Egypt and Syria). The treaty, signed on March 26,
1979, in Washington, DC, called for the withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Sinai over a
period of three years. The withdrawal proceeded smoothly, and in January, 1980, Egypt and
Israel established diplomatic relations. Israel withdrew from the Sinai by 1982.log281
Jehoshaphat went to fight with Ahab against Ramoth Gilead and lost.
Israeli troops briefly invaded Lebanon in an unsuccessful attempt to eliminate the PLO bases,
forces in raids against Israel.log282
A vast army from Edom, the other side of the Salt Sea, marched against Jehoshaphat, King of
Judah (II Chronicles 20), but was destroyed without loses to Judah's side. Johoshaphat reigned
ca. 59--77 years after the Shishak's invasion, comparable to the year 1982.
On June 6, 1982, Israel launched a full-scale invasion on Lebanon to destroy PLO bases and to
end the attacks. Meeting little resistance, Israeli commanders pushed north, reaching the
outskirts of Beirut within a week. Fighting was also with the Syrian forces. Nearly 80 Syrian
MiGs and 19 missile batteries in the Bekaa Valley were destroyed without the loss of a single
Israeli plane.
Then the history of Judah spoke about the weakness of the Davidic dynasty from Jehoram's sin
and Ahab's family. The house of David was almost destroyed. And had able men to rule barely
existed. The Kingdom of Judah suffered loses, especially when Edom rebelled. (II Chronicles 21:8-17)
This could be the picture with problems in the Israeli government. Likud suffered a setback in
the 1984 election, that led to the formation of a Labor-Likud Coalition. They promised to
withdraw Israeli forces from Lebanon, and by 1985 most troops were withdrawn.
The history of Israel spoke about sinfulness under King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.
This could speak about the sinfulness of the Christian, especially in the Eastern Bloc countries
under Russia. Sinfulness blossomed before the Gospel.
Qaddafi spent months on a training course in England, where a recession blossomed. The crisis
came during the Third Scroll. He returned as on the wagon pulled by black horses. He became
the head of the State of Libya in 1969. Since coming to power, he has led his country on a course
of a radical revolution at home and abroad.
The black horse has brought unrighteous values of products. (Revelation 6:5-6) We had the big
depression first. Something similar is now in Middle East to hurt Israel.
Qaddafi's commitment to unify the Arab world and his opposition to Israel and the United States
came across by increasing the price of oil. Some people call this the black war. Arabs increased
the price of oil four times without any changes to its production expenses. Their balance was
that poor.bib304
Economic activities declined sharply after 1973. Inflation, currency devaluations, and the world petroleum crisis adversely affected the economy. After the mid-1980s, Israel faced a 400% inflation rate that exceeded country's huge foreign debt, and a severe balance-of-payments deficit. Only the conservative government could maintain it. The Labor party had losses in 1974 and was defeated the first time by Likud in 1977. New governments introduced a series of economic austerity measures. By 1988, the inflation rate had been reduced to less than 25%. They signed the Free Trade Agreement with the United States in 1985. Black powers (horses) were also defeated by force. The United States bombed the Libyan army in 1986.log283
The Labor party dominated the Israeli politics until 1968. Then they merged with Rafi and Achdut and remained dominant until 1977. Afterwards Likud, and the coalition of the right-wing parties, led by the Herut (Freedom) party, came to power. I suggest the right wing is closed to black horses rather than the left wing (inflicted by red horses). Zechariah spoke that these horses satisfied the Lord. (verse 8) This could be because the right-wing political parties were more inclined toward Moses' Law.
And of Naphtali, he said, "O Naphtali, made glad with grace and full of the blessing of the Lord: the sea and its fishes will be his." The victory in this war resulted in the occupation of the Sinai Peninsula on the south, and the Gaza Strip on the west.bib305
And of Asher, Moses said, "Let Asher have the blessing of children; may he be pleasing to his brothers, and let his foot be wet with oil. Your shoes will be iron and brass; and as your days, so may your work be." Population increases with immigrants from different national backgrounds. They usually know what hard life is because many come from the USSR. They are able to settle on occupied territories and be prosperous to Israel.bib306
From Lamentations 3:45-66:
45. "You have made us like waste and that for which there is no use among the peoples.
46. The mouths of all our haters are open wide against us.
47. Fear and deep waters have come on us, wasting and destroying.
48. Rivers of water are running down from my eyes, for the destruction of the daughter of my
people.
49. My eyes are streaming without stopping, they have no rest,
50. Till the Lord's eye is turned on me, till he sees my trouble from Heaven.
51. The Lord is unkind to my soul, more than all the daughters of my town.
52. They who are against me without cause have gone hard after me as if I was a bird;
53. They have put an end to my life in the prison, stoning me with stones.
54. Waters were flowing over my head; I said, I am cut off.
55. I was making prayer to your name, O Lord, out of the lowest prison.
56. My voice came to you; let not your ear be shut to my breathing, to my cry.
57. You came near in the day when I made my prayer to you: you said, Have no fear.
58. O Lord, you have taken up the cause of my soul, you have made my life safe.
59. O Lord, you have seen my wrong; be judge in my cause."
Muslims have still looked for ways to destroy Israel. They awoke and went to sleep with words
that Israel should be deleted from the world's map. PLO took the first line to destroy Israel.
Their manifest of 1974 says they will first take Gaza and Jericho and from there the West bank
of Jordan, and then it is only a step to take Jerusalem. Their wish was not God's because Israel
exists and prospers today.
60. You have seen all the evil rewards they have sent on me, and all their designs against me.
61. Their bitter words have come to your ears, O Lord, and all their designs against me;
62. The lips of those who came up against me, and their thoughts against me all the day.
63. Take note of them when they are seated, and when they get up; I am their song.
64. You will give them their reward, O Lord, answering to the work of their hands.
65. You will let their hearts be covered over with your curse on them.
66. You will go after them in wrath, and put an end to them from under the Heaven of the Lord."
The Arabs wanted Jews to live in their countries, not in Palestine. The whole world USA was against them, See resolutions of the UN. All will be punished because they touched those most dear to God. (Zechariah 2:8)log285
Elijah
was considered the prophet before the Day of the Lord. (Malachi 4:5) That is why many Christians left the Lord and follow new elijahs or at least look for him. Since Elijah was in the previous period, it spoke the Day of the Lord will come in this period.Because prophets used to show what spoke, so Elijah as the prophet was raptured. (II Kings 2) God showed through Elijah that the Rapture should come in the next period. Who disagrees should explain why God raptured Elijah (a reason) and showed it in details.log286
Because Elisha and many other prophets knew, the rapture was coming (II Kings 2:3,6). Knowing the time for the rapture pictures that the breaking of the Sixth Seal will give knowledge about the time of the Rapture for the Church. Yet the Lord told this (wait a little while) to the killed by abortion in the Fifth Seal. I conclude that the time about the Rapture should be known by God the Son, by God the Holy Spirit, by the archangels and angels and should be known also by His children (killed by abortion). Today every Christian, who is newborn, feels the Rapture is coming.bib308
Elisha means salvation of God and he indicated in the direction of Rapture, when salvation will come before the Tribulation. Elisha showed the power of the Holy Spirit for the Sixth Seal.
This power is stronger than before, it is logical that should be the strongest at the end. (II Kings 2:9)We may see it in many churches. Persons not having arisen their spirit to eternal life are put on the floor under the power of the Holy Spirit. We also know it as the Toronto blessing.bib309
The Lord Jesus Christ introduces Himself to the Church of the Sixth Lamp as He "who is holy and true, who holds the key of David." The words "holy and true" show that his words about holiness will be realized and proved as true. The main meaning of holiness is the realization of the Resurrection in Heaven. The Lord's words mean to bring Christians into Heaven through the Rapture and the Resurrection, as may be derived from next words: "What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open." The words about His coming for His holy people will be realized and proven as true when He opens the door for His people.bib310
The Crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ are the first key which has opened the door for
people to be newborn in spirit.
The Pentecost in Jerusalem, Acts 2 (the second key) opened the door for people to be baptized
by Holy Spirit.
Because only one more reality (God's blessing) is awaited, then here is the key for it in order to
be open. We need to become once the eternal beings and therefore, the door for it should be
opened now. We call the key for it the Rapture and the First Resurrection. Thus, the Rapture and
the subsequent Resurrection will occur in the Sixth Scroll.bib311
In the time of the Sixth Lamp, God will open the door for the Rapture. Once this has begun, no one can shut the door, and the people who die after the door is opened will be resurrected without delay. The Lord knows of the Church's deeds, and comforts them with the words, "See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut."bib312
If the Church is raptured, they will know that the time for the Sixth Lamp is now, for the door is open. God has decided this, and no one in Heaven or on Earth can change it. This is the Lord's Word, proving the Rapture should occur in the time of the Sixth Scroll. God foresaw that the Church would not believe this was the case, and therefore said again, "You have kept my word. I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world." Are these not words about the Rapture prior to the Great Tribulation? These words serve not only as evidence for the Coming of the Rapture, but also as proof that the Church will not suffer the Tribulation.bib313
Jesus goes on to say, "I am coming soon." Does this not refer to the Second Coming of the Messiah to the Earth? He also says, "Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown." The crown was given to the first evangelists, so that no one would take it from the Church. Christians should ride as a master in their triumph. The triumph is that the Gospel will be preached to every nation, and so the Church will consist of members from all nations. Only a victorious Church could be raptured.bib314
"I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God." This is how people are described after the Resurrection and the Rapture (Revelation 7:15-17). "Never again will he leave it." Are not these words about the life in the Lord's presence during the third Millennium (Hosea 6:2)? In order for our world never to be sinful again, God must resurrect each of the faithful and make him or her a Heavenly being. If we use these words for the Church, this means the end of the Church in our world. Certainly, many churches will continue to exist, but the newborns in spirit are taken to be new in body.bib315
When Jesus states, "I will write on him the name of my God," this shows that a faithful person is not an Earthly being, but belongs among God's servants, as the angels do.bib316
"I will write on him the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of Heaven from my God." The faithful person has a new home, a new address in the New Jerusalem, which (following Revelation 21) is to be the dwelling place of the Lord's Bride -- that is, the dwelling place for all raptured and resurrected people. The Lord Jesus Christ also says, "I will also write on him my new name." The new name for the Lord should be "the Heavenly Man." He will act as the Name -- the King of Kings -- for the entire world (see Zephaniah 3:8-9). Those wearing eternal flesh will serve Him differently than they did in their Earthly flesh. As Earthly beings, they love their enemies; but once in eternal flesh, they will punish their enemies. This is the mark of the change that awaits the Church.bib317
When the Lord opens Heaven for His Church, some procedures in existing world will close. This could refer to the words: "shuts and no one opens." I believe this symbolizes the gifts of the Holy Spirit: at this time, the door to receive His Gifts will shut. The words also mention closing something that was, until this point, open: this may refer to the newborn in spirit. In any case, the Church truly ends by the end of the era of the Sixth Lamp.bib318
The apostle John wrote: "I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to Earth, as late figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. The sky receded like a scroll, rolling up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place." By now most readers will realize what will happen at the Rapture and the Resurrection. Put briefly, it will manifest as a natural catastrophe. My revelation is that Earth will shift its axis, and this will cause the earthquake mentioned above.ins10
I wondered how strong the earthquake could be; then the Lord revealed to me that it should be "five and a quarter." I thought about this number, and found no rest in believing the earthquake would register 5.25 on the Richter Scale. Then I noticed that the Revelation emphasized counting. A year, then, is 360 days and not our 365.25 days. I concluded that I had received the number for the result of an earthquake, and that the years after this earthquake would be shorter by about 5.25 days than it is now. A revolution of the Earth on its axis will not be 24 hours, but 21 minutes longer. Then the months will have 30 days each, and 42 months shall be 1260 days.ins11
Then the Lord practically showed (the birth of it) to the world what it would be like during Christmas 2004: moving the axis of the Earth, the moving continents, changing the length of the day, generating the earthquake and an accompanying tsunami. From the results of that catastrophe, we may derive that opening the Sixth Scroll for the world means great natural catastrophes. NASA scientists studying the Indonesian Earthquake of December 26, 2004, have calculated that it slightly changed our planet's shape, shaved almost 3 microseconds from the length of the day, and shifted the North Pole by centimeters.ins12
The Biblical Psalmist says: "The Earth trembled and quaked, and the foundations of the mountains shook; they trembled because he was angry. Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth, burning coals blazed out of it. He parted the Heavens and came down; dark clouds were under his feet. . . He reached down from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep waters" (Psalms 18:7-16). In this context, "took hold of me" and "drew me out of deep waters" clearly means to rapture one from the world, where the waters are human lives, or souls.bib319
For supporting evidence, we can look at the signs seen during the crucifixion of Jesus. "It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two."(Luke 23:44-45) Or "The Earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life." (Matthew 27:52): He departed from our life by such signs, and will come by the same signs (the same door) (Act 1:11).log287
If people cry out to the stones, "Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him Who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!", then the Lamb is approaching the Earth for the first time since the opening the Heavenly Book. So the Rapture must be happening at this point. When Joshua was destroying his enemies, "the LORD hurled large hailstones down on them from the sky, and more of them died from the hailstones than were killed by the swords of the Israelites" (Joshua 10:12). Is quite possible that his enemies preferred to be killed by the stones rather than by God's fighters, the Israelites.bib320
John saw one moment as the epitome of all movements for that historical period. Yet we are expecting natural catastrophes for whole periods, disasters that must increase as surely as a woman's pain does before she delivers a child. It is as if the powers of Earth can feel the coming of God, and so they are rising; they shake, they move. Massive earthquakes and volcanoes arising from the depth of our Earth are the fruits of our times. Storms and heavy snowfalls, drowning rains and killing hailstones come at us from our atmosphere. On the surface, floods, fires and droughts kill many each year. We are in our End Times, and therefore everyone must acknowledge such natural disorders in these years.log288
We could derive the sin of our modern world from the last Habakkuk's "woe." This prophet said: "Woe to him who says to wood, 'Come to life!' Or to lifeless stone, 'Wake up!' Can it give guidance? It is covered with gold and silver; there is no breath in it. But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the Earth be silent before him" (Habakkuk 2:19-20). The Lord dislikes today's trends toward manipulating life, our attempts to clone living beings. Scientists take live cells to make living animals. Habakkuk's representation of this is to give life to wood, to make it become living. He pointed out that this was impossible, because such a being has "no breath."bib321
We get spirit when God breathes life into our created flesh. In this way, Adam became a living being (Genesis 2:7). Some may think that since "the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground," that man and woman are living beings just as the animals are; after all, the Bible said: "God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air" (Genesis 2:19). However, nowhere does it say anything about Him breathing the breath of life into their nostrils. (Envisaging God breathing into the nostrils of rats or bugs is impossible.) God's Creation meant that he was working with living dust: organic and biologic matter. Imagining the Creator forming each individual cell of Adam is difficult, for if He could, he would use the abilities of cells to grow on their own. Therefore, in forming a man from dust, God gave directions to organic matter, telling it to go in the right direction. (See also the formation of the first woman from Adam's rib.) The conclusion is that even if scientists could clone living creatures, a cloned man would still not have any spirit or God's breath within him. Therefore, Habakkuk wrote that such a being could not "give guidance" because "there is no breath in it." From the last verse of Habakkuk's last "woe," I deduce that people have gone too far in creating other living creatures. They should cease these practices at once. Habakkuk said, "Let all the Earth be silent before him" because when the wrath comes, who can stand it? Here the Lord's wrath is conected to the Lord's wrath in the Sixth Scroll.bib322
The change Scrolls could also picture the change of the main prophets (Elisha substituted Elijah) and of the biblical books that describe this, the Book of Kings (1. Kings and 2. Kings).bib323
Jehu was the second king of Israel (ten tribes) on God's call. Jeroboam was the first. (I Kings
11:29 - 39). The prophet Elisha (II Kings 9) inspired him to take power.
We may understand from it that God still wants Christianity to rule in our days.
God called Jehu to destroy the sinful house of Ahab. Because Ahab's family was kin to the
throne of the David, he killed King Ahaziah of Judah also. The Kingdom of Judah was first in
the hands of a woman, Athalia. She and her previous king Jehoram (II Chronicles 21:4)
murdered their families.
This was a picture of killing babies by abortion.
Joash ruled under the influence the priest Jehojadu. After his death, Joash is unfaithful. Syria
invaded, and Joash gave them gifts so they withdrew. He redeemed himself.
This could explain the offering of the land (gift) to Syria or Palestine for a peace treaty. In 1993,
Israel and the PLO signed an accord, providing for the joint recognition and limited Palestinian
self-rule in the Gaza Strip and Jericho.
Joash was killed because he killed Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada, the priest. Zechariah said the
priests put him on the throne. Then he abandoned them and the Temple. Joash had not listened
to him and killed him in the Temple's courtyard. Later his son Amaziah was also killed.
Perhaps this could portray the assassination of Rabin on November 4, 1995, and the policy
about selling Jerusalem for peace. Rabin (rabin > priest) forgot of the early times when he had
fought for Israel. As chief of staff of the armed forces, he had planned the 1967 Israeli victory in
the Six-Day War. He sold the land to the enemies of Israel. The world liked this and in the 1994
gave Rabin the Nobel Peace Prize along with the PLO leader.bib324
Amaziah wanted to lead wars first with the Israelites, but this was not God's will, so he lost. They broke the wall of Jerusalem and took all the gold and silver in the Temple. (II Chronicles 25:18-24) This could portray when Arafat declared a holy war against Israel in 1996 because of the tunnel under the Temple Mount. The war lasted 3 days without any help from the Christian world. The UN judged unrighteous because of a lie that said the tunnel was under the mosque.
The next king Uzziah trusted God and was successful till his pride led him to a downfall.
Uzziah is known for entering the Temple and then he contracted leprosy.
The deliberate destruction of portions of Judaism's most holy site happened in the year 2000,
when digging on the Temple Mount was reported. An impressive large stone fragment was seen
taken from the land. Ariel Sharon visited the Temple Mount on September 28. Riots escalated
into a new, ongoing cycle of violence in Jerusalem with brought about the destruction of
Joseph's Tomb on October 7 and the destruction of the Shalom al Yisrael Synagogue in Jericho
on October 12.bib325
Uzziah's son Jotham had ruled during his father's reign, and then, he became the king.
Perhaps this speaks when two parties ruled: Barak, Labor party, was the Prime Minister, and
Sharon was in the government. Afterwards, Sharon became Prime Minister of Israel.
Jotham was successful because he walked steadfastly before the Lord, his God. He rebuilt Elath
(later under Ahaz fell to Syrian). He build towns, fortresses, towers in the Judean hills and
towers in wooden areas.
This may speak about projects such as the Flagship Water Project funded by the international
community to find a long-term solution to the region's water crisis and a basis to peaceful
relations between Israel, Jordan, the Palestinians, and other Middle Eastern countries.
"He did extensive work on the wall." (II Chronicles 27:3) This could refer to the wall to fence in the territory of Israel from terrorists in the year 2003.bib326
Jotham, King of Judah, led the war with the Ammonites. They conquered them, and they paid him.
This is about Israeli forces entering territories under PLO and surrounding Arafat's office
because of the terrorism coming from there. It could also be about the war of alliances against
terrorists based in Afghanistan.
The next king Ahaz was a sinful king of Judah.
Hezekiah his son succeeded Ahaz. His devotions, big saving from Assyrian, his healing and
changing of rotation of the Earth marked his ruling in Judah Kingdom. But the kingdom of Israel
(ten tribes) ended during his ruling.
Judah Kingdom was built on Davidic throne and the kingdom of Israel (ten tribes) was like a
steward kingdom in God's people, Jacob's people. Isaiah was there and he used this happening
for prophecy about our times. The key words are in our numbers, twenty-two, Chapter 22:22: "I
will place on his shoulder the key to the house of David; what he opens no one can shut,
and what he shuts no one can open." He, holding the key for resurrection is called "resurrection
of God" - Eliakim and therefore during the time relating to the King Hezekiah, the First
Resurrection will start.bib327
Hezekiah's kingdom shows not only the Resurrection but also the Wrath of the Lord what represents the steward Shebna in Isaiah (22:15-25). The Northern Kingdom (ten tribes) falls in the sixth year of Hezekiah, king of Judah.bib328
The apostle John describes the white horse and its rider as a conqueror bent on conquest. He also has a crown, the symbol to rule. The United States went with the intention of being victorious. Victorious means to win. Therefore, the white horse must be only one power at the end of the Crusade for Christians.log289
Teachers of the end times say a rider on a white horse in the First Scroll is an Antichrist who went to win. If someone says he intends to win, then he must show victory for his words to be confirmed as the true or a lie. They must show the place at the end of the Heavenly Book where their white horse won. Otherwise, their theories are lies.log290
If only the white horse is dominant on the battlefield, it means the crusade of the white horse ends. All adversaries are defeated. A crown is his.
We can see that white power is really fighting evil powers in order to keep peace in the world. Therefore, the years for this Scroll are for Israel's peace. Iraq declared "holy war" against Israel and then bombarded Israeli civilian targets with Scud missiles in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. The United States (a white power of Christianity) convinced Israeli Shamir to stay out of the fighting. Miraculously, these missiles killed none in the Jewish state.log291
Coalition forces, led by the United States, defeated Afghanistan, where terrorists' bases were and the country that supported Iraq. (Iraq supported families of terrorists operating in Israel.)
Older brother Joseph loved Benjamin and looked more after him (Genesis 43:29-34).
"And of Joseph he said, Let the blessing of the Lord be on his land; for the good things of Heaven on high, and the deep waters flowing under the Earth. And the good things of the fruits of the sun, and the good things of the growth of the moons. And the chief things of the oldest mountains, and the good things of the eternal hills. The good things of the Earth and all its wealth, the good pleasure of him who was seen in the burning tree: may they come on the head of Joseph, on the head of him who was prince among his brothers? He is a young ox, glory is his; his horns are the horns of the mountain ox, with which all peoples will be wounded, even to the ends of the Earth: they are the ten thousands of Ephraim and the thousands of Manasseh."
White horses should later bring the Millennium. (Isaiah 65:17-25) Moses' words point in this direction. We can see a portion of it now in Israel. The white horses prevail in this Scroll. Israel is prosperous, especially in agriculture and industry. The number of inhabitants increased from Jews from Russia, Ukraine, and Ethiopia. They added 100,000 in a year.
1. "How dark has the gold become! how changed the best gold! the stones of the holy place are dropping out at the top of every street." This includes the destruction of portions of Judaism's most holy site in 2000. Sacred stones were taken from the land and thrown anywhere when new streets were made on the Temple Mount. Joseph's tomb and others were devastated by the Islamic people.bib330
2. "The valued sons of Zion, whose price was the best gold, are looked on as vessels of Earth, the work of the hands of the potter!
3. Even the beasts of the waste land have full breasts, they give milk to their young ones: the daughter of my people has become cruel like the ostriches in the waste land.
4. The tongue of the child at the breast is fixed to the roof of his mouth for need of drink: the young children are crying out for bread, and no man gives it to them.
5. Those who were used to feasting on delicate food are wasted in the streets: those who as children were dressed in purple are stretched out on the dust."
The same fate has come on the people. Terrorists attack people of all ages and positions at home, in the streets, and anywhere else like beasts from the hell that never could not be satisfied in killing. This all serves to humble the people before God for the sins of their forefathers. The punishment of their evil deeds is to be completed. (verse 22)
21. " Have joy and be glad, O daughter of Edom, living in the land of Uz: the cup will be given to you in your turn, and you will be overcome with wine and your shame will be seen.
22. The punishment of your evil-doing is complete, O daughter of Zion; never again will he take you away as a prisoner: he will give you the reward of your evil-doing, O daughter of Edom; he will let your sin be uncovered."
Uz and the daughter of Edom could be punished, Afganistan and Iraq.
Manasseh, Hezekiah's son, ruled 55 years. Afterwards, his son Amon ruled 2 years. They did evil things. They could portray the next 7 or 8 years when Israel will be unfaithful to their God and will follow the way of the world and their gods.
Josiah ruled 31 years, which are 4.5 years for our time. He was only 8 years old. He started to look to the Lord at age 18. They repaired the Temple and founded the Book of the Law and renewed their covenant with God.
The last seven from the Jeremiah and Daniel "seventy" should start; therefore, the Temple should be build in Jerusalem by people who entered into the new covenant with God. This could picture the first half of the last week.bib331
The next king ruled 3 months. The next king, 11 years, and next king, 3 months, and next king,
11 years. All four kings did evil things.
This could picture the Antichrist coming into Israel.bib332
Gad also belonged to this brigade. Moses says about him, "A blessing be on him who makes wide the limits of Gad: he takes his rest like a she-lion, taking for himself the arm and the crown of the head. He kept for himself the first part, for his was the ruler's right: he put in force the righteousness of the Lord, and his decisions for Israel." (20-21)
Simeon is the next tribe that belonged to this brigade. Moses said nothing about him. If a week in years is for a tribe, then for the last Crusade would be only 14 years. We know that the last Scroll should last only 16 years instead of 21. These 16 years are more acceptable when Simeon is not mentioned.
Jacob put Simeon and Levi in one characteristic. (Genesis 49:5) So, let us look at Moses' words for the tribe Levi .
"And of Levi he said, 'Give your Thummim to Levi and let the Urim be with your loved one, whom you put to the test at Massah, with whom you were angry at the waters of Meribah; Who said of his father, Who is he? and of his mother, I have not seen her; he kept himself separate from his brothers and had no knowledge of his children: for they have given ear to your word and kept your agreement. They will be the teachers of your decisions to Jacob and of your Law to Israel: the burning of perfumes before you will be their right, and the ordering of burned offerings on your altar. Let your blessing, O Lord, be on his substance, may the work of his hands be pleasing to you: may those who take up arms against him and all who have hate for him, be wounded through the heart, never to be lifted up again.'" (Deuteronomy 33:8-11)
These words fit for people appointed to be priests in the Millennium.
