A LETTER OF LOVE

 Dear Friends, Family and Readers,

I love you with all my heart. I want to let you know that you are stronger than you know. It is important for me to say this because things are going to get tougher. Many economies are going to crash. There will be different reasons for this. The only solution for all this trouble is Jesus. But you probably do not want to know this. The world is going to change very fast:

• there will be a problem of leadership
• things you know to be true will be questioned, it is called alternative facts
• a lot of people will die or go missing
• there will be a need for order in every nation
• the presence of confusion and evil will be in the atmosphere
• religion will be blamed for the confusion in one way or the next
• a new way or new religion will cause Islam, Christianity and Judaism to change
• there will be talk about Jerusalem and the building of the Temple 

WHAT YOU MUST NOT DO

• Do not commit suicide
• Do not deny Jesus
• Do not deny the truth
• Do not curse God, his people or the Jews or Israel
• You will be asked to take a mark on you. You must not
• Do not be guilty of the things the church is judged for in Revelations 1-3 

WHAT YOU MUST DO

• Accept Jesus as the Saviour over your life
• Forgive self and forgive others 
• If you can talk to someone about Jesus, talk to them
• Pray all the time and follow what God is saying or what the Bible says, do not worry about the Sabath
• Try to get a physical Bible, read Revelations, 1st and 2nd Thessalonians, Matthew 24, Ezekiel 38-end, 
• Use this time to make a plan of survival to live of the grid
• You may be called upon to tell the truth or say something is evil or wrong 
• Go brave, fear no one but God

A Treaty will be signed. Start checking 1260 days. Mark that date. This peace treaty will last for 7 years. Do not be fooled. By the third year things will start to get strange again. Someone will say he is god on the 1260th day. This is the one we call the anti-christ. When that happens make sure to drop what you are doing and run in the opposite direction.

If you followed my instructions you will by God's grace have a plan to survive. Things will get brutal but congratulations you are half way through. At the point of death you keep Christ.

I am sorry but that is all that I know. It may not happen exactly as I say but it will happen. It is better to accept Jesus before all of these things. But if you did not there is always hope in Jesus. Try really hard not to hate.

For God so loved the world He gave His only Son so that none should perish but live in eternity with Him. Jesus took our sins on the cross. God accepted His sacrifice. Jesus is the only way, the truth and the life. 

With this letter is my prayer that any reader will make it to God's loving arms. I hope you are ready to say this prayer. 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be. Guide me in these times so I can be used by you to help others in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

PRE-TRIBULATION SETTING

    When Hitler killed Jews it was not based on belief but based on ethnicity. There is a lot of anti-semitism in the church and around us. The conversation about Jews is mostly about ethnicity. I don't think there is any question in anyone's mind that the end of times is here. Like me, many others are asking questions about this current period of time and how Israel and the world fits into prophecy. We want to know the future. We want to understand what is happening around us. We want to know who to trust. We can start with, Jesus is the truth. The devil is a liar. 

There is much insecurity, lack of trust, disappointments, and things that don't seem to make sense. The more popular questions are:

• How can I know what is the truth?
• Why are the pastors preaching different messages?
• Are we in tribulation? 

HOW TO KNOW THE TRUTH

I did some studies and I encourage you to as well. I will try to explain all that I know so far from my studies. Here are some tips when studying the Bible:

• Use scripture to explain scripture 
• Ask The Holy Spirit to teach you
• Know the heart of God has no hatred
• Listen to credible messages to help you expand on what you learn

Test the messages. There are many deceptions in this world. We should know the God whom we serve. Study to show this understanding in your life. Unfortunately there are churches that do not teach gospel truth. In your studies test the messages you read or listen to. Here are some points to look out for:

• Only Jesus can get you to heaven
• The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit are not the same, they are equal and they are one, one is not a manifestation at a point of time. All three exists at the same point in time 
• There will be no anti-semitism
• There will be a main message of hope in Jesus
• Jesus must be spoken of as the Saviour or Messiah
• The church is not a replacement for Israel
• The Bible is not filled with stories and characters, it is a documented and historical basis
• All of man can be saved, this is God's desire
• Jesus was born in Israel and He was a Jew
• Israel is God's promise to the Jews

Any message that leads you away from the truth as is stated in the Bible is not of God.

WHY ARE THE PASTOR PREACHING DIFFERENT MESSAGES?

It is unfortunate that the church is struggling. We have seen so many false teachers in the church and fake ministers of God. People have lost trust. The oldest false teaching starts with incorrect information used to interpret the Bible. The latest is Replacement Theory. The Holy Spirit is our teacher and without Him we cannot understand the word or have revelation. 

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away! For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3:1-7

There will be false teachings. Many self proclaimed prophets and teachers misunderstand the scripture or see only what is convenient for them. There will be false teachers. 

But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber. 2 Peter 2:1

This is why we have to study to show ourselves approved. God will not have to judge us as He did Israel:

Hear the word of the LORD, ye children of Israel: for the LORD hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land. Hosea 4:6

There are some basic truths I have to share with you. Many false teachings are based on specific misunderstandings.

Relationship of Christians and Jews

When Jesus was born there were the Messianic Jews and the Rabbinical Jews. Our Christianity stems from the Messianic Jews. There are less Messianic Jews because they did not convert the gentiles to practice Messianic Judaism. The number of Gentiles increased while the Messianic Jews remained small in numbers. Gentiles means believers of Messianic Judaism but not with Jewish bloodline from the father.

This was the first time Gentiles wanted to practise Judaism fully. The conversation about conversion using circumcision came from this. 

And certain men came down from Judea and taught the brethren, “Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.” Acts 15:1

Discussions on who is the true authority and which way is the right way were heated debates 2,000 years ago. It did not matter that they were taken over by Rome, the Jews were having a family argument. This is why Jesus said:

I am the way the truth and the life. John 3:16

He answered their questions as to who was the true authority and who was the true faith. He told them how to live. When Jesus speaks to the Pharisees and Sadducees it seems a bit harsh. But Jesus was rebuking the lies of the devil spoken and taught through them. Rabbinical Jews were the Pharisees and Sadducees, the leaders who lived in Jerusalem. 

Jews in the Bible

In the Old Testament the Jews were the physical descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The Abrahamic Covenant is passed on and re-established to Isaac and Jacob. They are referred to in the physical based on the father's bloodline. It did not matter if they did not follow Judaism. This was ethnos. A race of people.

In the New Testament it is all about ethnicity. More than 100 times Jews are referred to as an ethnicity. Whenever the Jews are criticised or rebuked by the prophets or by Jesus it is the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem who were Rabbinical Jews. These leaders lived in Jerusalem.

“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves. Matthew 23:15

Even John did this, But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, “Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Matthew 3:7

However, some Pharisees believed in Jesus. But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.” Acts 15:5

Can an African man change his ethnicity? Neither can a Chinese man. But as Peter explains, they can all be one through The Holy Spirit dwelling in them and by grace which is in accepting Jesus as Lord. 

And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: “Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. So God, who knows the heart, acknowledged them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as He did to us, and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith. Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they.” Acts 15:7-11

The devil does not look at a person based on circumcision. When Hitler killed Jews it was not based on belief but based on ethnicity. The conversation about Jews is mostly about ethnicity. 

Perhaps you have heard the question, Who are the real Jews? There are secular Jews as well. Stay away from this because being Jewish is not simply about religion it is about ethnicity. The question is a political question based on anti-semitic arguments. The arguments that are used to say that Israel has no real Jews is not logical, it is based on conspiracies and it is based on hatred. It is very ugly. 

 

A New Testament

When the Second Temple was destroyed in 70CE the Jews all knew they had to get a New Testament. The priests had no place to work, no place to make sacrifices and no place to worship. They (Messianic Jews and Gentiles) then set out to choose a new manuscript to use that was closest to the Old Testament.

The third Temple could only be used for thanksgiving. The Sinai Covenant they had with God, could be in one place. This is the sacrifices to be offered and only the priests can do it. They knew God will offer them a new way to accommodate this development. Romans were brutal and ordering them to mix Judaism with idolatry. Caesar was god to the Romans.

The Messianic Jews said Jesus is the atonement while the Rabbinical Jews said by studying the law you have atonement. Remember it is a family dispute except, this time the gentile christians were involved. 

Israel and the world

Anything that happens starts with Israel. Then it affects the world. Similarly, it happens to Israel first then the church. Here are some points to think about:

• The physical people are the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The spiritual people are born again believers. 
• If you bless Israel God will bless you. A nation's relationship with Israel will determine blessings. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Genesis 12:3 
• Jesus came to the Jews first. Jesus is coming back to Jerusalem, not USA, UK, France, Turkey etc
• The tribulation is for the Jews who do not believe in Jesus and non-Jews who do not believe in Jesus. This is the wrath or anger that John spoke of, Flee from the wrath to come.

Judgement comes to the Jew first then to the church. The anti-christ  after 3.5 years will sit in the Temple in Jerusalem and claim to be God. It will not be in Mecca, it will not be in Rome.

ARE WE IN TRIBULATION?

No we are not in the time of the Great Tribulation. Many of us are experiencing troubles or tribulations. The rapture occurs before the Great Tribulation. The true believers will not experience it. This will be discussed in another blog. 

Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you must continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 2 Timothy 3:12-14

The chaos around us is to set the stage for the anti-christ. To create a setting for the new way or new order to take over. 

The new order is real. In 2016 I sat in an American plane and the welcome message included, ...we are proud to be part of the one world order....  Today the frigate "Bayern" departed from the port of Wilhelmshaven. It is on a seven-month operational deployment to Australia, Japan, South Korea and Vietnam. German Foreign Minister Heiko Mas said   

Germany must demonstrate a presence in the Indo-Pacific region as it is one of the regions where the world order of the future will be determined...We want to be involved and take responsibility for the management of an international order based on laws 

German Defense Minister Angert Kramp-Kernbauer said, we are defending our values ​​and interests together with our partners and allies,...For our partners in the Indo - Pacific region, the reality is that the sea lanes are no longer open and secure and claims to land ownership are implemented by the Law of Power.

Remember when you see these things to lift up your eyes knowing your redemption is near. We are suffering for Jesus. We are experiencing persecution and tribulations imagine what the Great Tribulation will be like.

I pray you hold on to your faith in Jesus as Lord over your life. I pray your prayers are answered in Jesus name.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

END TIMES ALMOST OVER

Jordan's King Abdullah said that his country
had been attacked by Iranian made drones

    In the next few weeks I want to focus on the end of times and I hope that is okay with you. So many of us want to learn more about this time that we are in. We have been hearing about the end for almost 2,000 years. From what I can tell it is the end of time, sinful life and the kingdoms of the earth. 

Praise God for giving us this time to work out our salvation. For centuries we have heard, Jesus is coming! But do you know that the end begins with Jesus? He is the beginning of the end. He is the fulfilment of Adam 

And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being.” The last Adam became a life-giving spirit. 1 Corinthians 15:45

This is how the New Testament started: 

God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds; 1 Hebrews 1:1-2

Jesus brought a new administration or phase. He fulfils Messianic Judaism and he taught a gospel for the Gentiles. As He started His ministry, we are told that the end is coming. 

John the Baptist said, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” Matthew 3:2. Yes, he ushered in Jesus's ministry. He spoke of the Kingdom. The Kingdom as spoken of in Daniel 2:44

And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.

This prophesy has not happened as yet but it will soon. The Book of Revelation speaks of this kingdom. At the end of time after the tribulation the Kingdom of God will be fully established. Jesus's Lordship will no longer be in heaven only. His kingdom will not be simply on a personal level, it will be on a global scale.

Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!” Revelation 11:15

Before the kingdom of God can be established for eternity, there are several events that occur. Here are the key events that define the end of times:

• tribulations
• pre-tribulation war Ezekiel 38
• alliance against Israel
• rapture
• new order 
• anti-Christ tribulation
• apocalypse
• the Second Coming
• 1000 year reign
• devil loosed
• eternal judgement
• the third beast
• the second beast
• the first beast

It is important to understand the setting that pushes or catapults the sequence of events. The pre-tribulation war will be because of economics or innovation. It may or may not be because of chaos but it will add to the chaos. The build up for the anti-Christ is the chaos or problems overwhelming mankind. This will be the reason he is popular and looked on as the solution to the problems.

Can you name some contributions to a chaotic world? All over the world people are crying out for against pain, poverty, freedom, rights and justice. Protests for different reasons are occurring globally. Here are some of the scenes:

Military troops surround the Parliament in Tunisia

Now when the thousand years have expired, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the sea. They went up on the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. And fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them. The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelations 20:7-15

There will be only one King and one kingdom. King Abdullah would not have to worry about Iran and Iranian drones. After the final judgement there will be no more sin and no more time, only eternity.

Please do not think that you can be saved after the rapture or during tribulation. There are skeptics who think that they have to see the tribulation before they can believe Jesus is the Saviour or God. While this is possible it will be a very difficult life. In fact, when the Anti-Christ declares he is God, you will have to decide to accept Jesus as Saviour upon death. This is where the mark of the Beast comes in.

A little reality here. If you find it hard to believe now, it will be harder when you are faced with a life and death situation. During the tribulation, the evil will be great. Today there is so much wickedness. During the tribulation it will be worse. 

Thank you Father for waiting for us and for the plan of salvation. I pray every reader can submit to God with their whole heart. I pray that none will see the tribulation but will have eternal life with Christ.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

THE PHILISTINES

    As a Christian I tried to figure out the Philistine claim to the land that is known as Israel. In the Bible, the map shows Palestine. Like many others I assumed Palestinians and the Philistines were the same people. Research proves me wrong. 

The Philistines were not even from that area. They were the people from the Greek isles. They were not Arabs but they were the ancient enemies of the Israelites. 

The Philistines

People make the assumption that Philistines and Palestinians are the same. It is based on a similar root word. It is widely accepted because a lot of sites on the internet state it like a fact. It is done on some credible sites which helps people to accept it as a truth. Predictive text replaces the name Philistine with Palestine. But this is part of a jihad using the pen. The media is manipulated and the algorithms are manipulated to promote this lie.

When I research and read up on the Philistines I have to remind myself that when they say Palestine as a land or people they really mean Philistine. The average person will not know this and will be misinformed.  This is identity theft of a dead man. Because God wiped them out. God is true to His word. I cannot call myself a Christian  if I did not believe this.

Many people doubt the accuracy of the Bible but it is usually proven right. The first reference to the Philistines, that was not Biblical, was in the  annals of the Assyrian king Adad-nirari III (810–782). He had collected tribute from Philistia. 

I find that it is very strange that there are no documents in the Philistine language. A people who were around for hundreds of years. The Enclopaedia Britannica says that all of it was replaced possibly by Canaanite, Aramaic, and, later, Greek. The Philistines were not the same as the Canaanites.

Even the First Nation People who traveled through the Caribbean left artefacts dating back to their settlement on the islands. That was more than 4,000 years ago. They were not even into writing. Obviously the Philistine people were wiped out along with the evidence of the people's existence. Who killed them? Why? God wanted to wipe them out. They committed many sins.

Further to this the little artefacts found where the Philistines lived e.g. Ashdod, Ekron and Tel Qasile proves that they were from the Aegean area. Although they were absorbed or conquered by others in later years, e.g. Babylon. 

The Encyclopaedia goes on to say the Philistine gods mentioned in other sources were Dagan, Ashteroth (Astarte), and Beelzebub. They had Semitic names and were probably borrowed from the conquered Canaanites. The main point here is that the religion they followed was not Islam nor was it Judaism. 

The word Philistine itself means invade. If they are invaders then the land did not belong to them. They were known as invaders from the sea. Egyptian records as far back as 1100s BC refers to them as the Sea People. Why is the name Palestine then used to reference the Philistines? 

It is said that the root of the names are similar. I am no scholar but if they are the same then they are invaders.  The assumed root name of palash פלש is common to both. Philistine (פלשתי) literally means one belonging to Philistia (פלשת). 

Palestine means dirt people who rolled around, peleshet or were migratory or roamed the land. Another meaning for Palestine is land of grief-stricken dust-rollers, land of tunnel diggers (have to chuckle here). It is as easy as forgetting a comma I think. But what an important comma!

Palestinians could not be the Sea People. I once read an article written by someone who claimed the name Palestine was lent to the Philistines. There is no documentation of this. 

Additionally, history tells us that Emperor Hadrian changed the name of Judea and Jerusalem. He used Palestine for the name of the land and proceeded to change it on every map and document he had. The name Palestine referred to Jews at that time even in the early 20th century. 

Canaan

The Philistines lived alongside the Canaanites in Israel. Sometimes they are confused as being the same people. Now Canaanites were a very diverse people. Kind of like the diversity seen today in multi-cultural societies. 

Canaanites were the sons of Ham, Genesis 10. They were in the land that had tall people. The land of Rephaim. Deuteronomy 2:20-21, 9:2, tells us that there were other occupiers before the Canaanites and that they were tall. There were always giants in the land it seems. 

Giants were among the Canaanites and the Philistines. Some historians believe that they were scattered in different parts of Israel. By the time of Moses they already had a reputation. Caleb and the spies all knew about them.

 נִפְרְד֞וּ (nip̄·rə·ḏū) Nifal means to spread, breakthrough or to separate. It is used two times in the Bible in the same chapter 

From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations. Genesis 10:5. 

The word is used to create a distinction between these descendants as sea people and the other descendants. It cannot be a coincidence that when God saw the evil in the land during the time of the nephilim and the giants, He flooded the earth and kept separate the same tribes that would have the giants living among them. 

Canaan and the descendants of the Philistines fought against Judah and today, the people who claim to be descendants of the Philistines are fighting against them. Can this be coincidence? Is it any surprise that Noah cursed Canaan for exposing his nakedness? That curse has maintained a separation to this day. 

I pray that you see the truth. I pray that you are not caught by the net of lies and deceptions of the devil in Jesus name. 

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

Thank you Behold Israel

 

TAKING BACK CONTROL

    It is easy to find things to occupy our time and energy. There is always something to do. During lockdown and restrictions I had a lot of time. No work and cannot go anywhere. I tried to keep up with all the conspiracies and all the things happening around the world. I was overwhelmed especially when friends sent me videos and articles to read. I made a decision that I will not allow my time and energy to be wasted. 

Life seems to be speeding by. There is much to worry about. But worry is not godly. Worry is fear of the unknown. We know what will happen. We read our Bibles and understand the end is here. Our christian life is our priority. I have written several blogs and it leads to the same conclusion, focus on Jesus. Be a partner with Jesus. If life is hard, suffer for Him:

Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you, which comes upon you for your testing, as though some strange thing were happening to you; but to the degree that you share the sufferings of Christ, keep on rejoicing, so that also at the revelation of His glory you may rejoice with exultation. If you are reviled for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. 

Make sure that none of you suffers as a murderer, or thief, or evildoer, or a troublesome meddler; but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name. For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it beginswith us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? AND IF IT IS WITH DIFFICULTY THAT THE RIGHTEOUS IS SAVED, WHAT WILL BECOME OF THE GODLESS MAN AND THE SINNER? Therefore, those also who suffer according to the will of God shall entrust their souls to a faithful Creator in doing what is right. 1 Peter 4:12-19

Do not be guilty of the sins. If you have little, thank God anyway. God is the beginning and the ending of each of us. Enjoy the relationship you have with Him. 

Ask yourself, What am I doing for Jesus? How can I tell others about Jesus. We know there will be persecution in the end times. Today there is persecution. In many nations christians are enslaved or killed. 

Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets. Luke 6:22-23

We know there will be rumours of war. Everyday we put on the television we hear about tensions or accusations. Since Hiroshima, there were talks about disarmament. But, in 2021 we are facing a nuclear weapons development programme in Iran.

Israelis on the beach in Tel Aviv are running for 

cover from Hamas rockets, May 2021

All these things are prophesied in the Bible. What does it mean? We should be busy trying to tell others about Jesus or show others Jesus in us. If you cannot say it, do it. Always be ready with a verse to encourage someone. It is the word of God that we speak:

For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Hebrews 4:12

Thank God for His word and for every time you can use it. 

Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” Luke 15:10

Pray for each other;

But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers. 1 Peter 4:7

I will be writing more about the end times soon and get into more specifics.

I pray you grow stronger in The Lord. I pray you have all that you need to survive this world and reach the hearts of others for salvation in Jesus name.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

NEPHILIM PART 3 - NEW WORLD OF GIANTS

    As a child I tried to fit in. I never felt like I belonged especially while attending a convent. I am not from the middle class. My friends from convent all had what I call a bourgeois lifestyle. I had three special friends whom I could relate to in upbringing and in class. On weekends when my classmates went to a party or sunbathed on yachts we did homework and chores.

Should I try to fit into this new world now? The world is now filled with giants. There are big technology companies, the big pharmaceutical companies, the big media conglomerates, international companies, social media platforms, trade bodies and big players in industry. Giants appear to run everything. Is it the return of the nephilim? 

These companies are so big and influential that they cannot be affected by small and medium competitors. In fact due to the effects of the pandemic, the small and medium sized enterprises have closed down. The bigger companies were able to withstand the market changes.

The World Health Organisation spearheads the covid-19 response. Some people feel that the international body took on a governmental role, an international government role. They were quick to call the virus a pandemic, they put out policy, regulation, funding and are the lead authority. Nation leaders simply had to follow. If nations didn't comply, investors would pull out. Such leaders would look like conspiracy theorists. 

If I add personal wealth to determine a giant, I would have billionaires and influencers. These billionaires and influencers can fund research, space travel, and determine if investments are successful. They can advise on policies and withhold funding for projects or organisations. They are giants.

It is starting to look like governments may no longer be needed. Banks are no longer needed with the cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. It is just a matter of time and full implementation.

The world is looking very different to what I knew it as in 2015. It can get frightening. I have heard pastors say that the devil has to say what he is doing. The Giant Company, literally called that, is developing the roaming giant. Similar to a mall but mobile and allows the public to see themselves as giants. Is this a declaration of the return in a different form.

It is a time to seek God for His guidance on everyday life. A time to pray for others. So many people are dying for different reasons without having Jesus as Lord over them. Do not be faint hearted.

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable. 

He gives strength to the weary, And to him who lacks might He increases power. Isaiah 40:29-29

The Nephilim has returned in a different form. As an ambassador for the Kingdom of God, you cannot belong to the earthly kingdoms. You belong in God's heavenly Kingdom. 

That means that sacrifices may have to be made to ensure your citizenship in heaven. Sacrifices on this earth. If Christ was persecuted, His followers will be persecuted as well.

Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. 2 Corinthians 4:16

Ask God to guide you. All you have to do is maintain Jesus's Lordship over your life. That means to accept Him as your saviour and follow His example. Jesus did not panic. Know that these things will happen but your eternal heavenly citizenship is secure.

I pray you find courage and wisdom to deal with every situation you are in, in Jesus name.

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.

NEPHILIM PART 2 - THE RETURN

    While I was in Scotland I was shocked that there were so many people who believed that there were real giants. According to folklore, giants lived in Scotland among men and fairies. I will focus here on the giants and save the fairies for another time. 

The nephilims are referred to in Genesis 6. I have discussed the arguments given by scholars, many of whom believe that the giants were the children of human women and fallen angels. Also, I have suggested a relationship with the theme of separation nifal and the name nephilim. In this blog I want to focus on the situation at the time and how it relates to today. To keep it simple I will use sub-headings:

• the situation
• the bloodline
• science, technology and today

The situation

The main text on the nephilim is taken from Genesis 6:1-6

Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.

And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.” There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And the Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

What we learn is that there was a specific environment, a set up and a main sin. The human population had grown. There were many women born. The set up would be to position oneself to see. Of course the sin is sexual immorality but further specified as the pursuit of strange flesh.

Using nifal which means to spread, break through or separate, the set up would be when the nephilim broke through the barriers that kept them within a specific domain. They saw they were beautiful. Like David on the roof. He knew he would be able to see more from his roof. This led to his sin of sexual immorality which is adultery, and murder.

In the garden of Eden, lucifer seduced Eve into eating the forbidden fruit. He said you can be like God. Take it, it is there for you. I can imagine a similar conversation with the angels.

The bloodline

In the first part  I present an argument for the giants as different to the Nephilim but called nephilims. To take the conversation further I am looking at God's response. It is suggested that God saw that by mixing the blood lines the children would be able to live very long. God was not pleased with something that resulted in reducing the amount of years for our lifespan to 120 years. 

Why punish us humans for sins committed by angels? Why do it at this point? It could only be because of the sin that was committed and sin that He saw in the continuation of the bloodline. I believe this is why  He says, My Spirit will not strive with man forever. 

Additionally, the giants were of renown. They lived long and had a reputation, good for some and bad for others. They spread because we later learn they were in Canaan and all over Israel. They were with the Philistines. This is a possible explanation for why God wanted them Canaan and Philistia to be wiped out. His anger towards these tribes that had giants among them, their bloodline. 

By the time of the Great Tribulation the Nephilims do return to the earth as their former selves. They are cast out of heaven with the devil Revelations 12:12 Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. 

The bloodline would not matter at this point. I suggest that in God's timing the bloodline of the giants will be wiped out from the earth and the only return would be a repeat of the first appearance in Genesis except in definitive defeat.

Science, technology and today

The environment described in Genesis 6 and again in Jude 1, is very much like that of today in several ways:

• There are more women today in positions of power than ever before.
• Generally there is a population explosion with improved health care. 
• Borders are broken through by; trade, alliances, internet, space travel, and inter-racial marriages. 
• Domains exist on the internet which is virtual and not spiritual but can be seen as the same in some contexts. 
• There are gender boundaries broken with gay rights and even sex with beasts. Physical changes are made to the human body with science in sex changes or a simple operation to use a steel rod to replace a bone.

Now in 2021 mankind is preparing to break another boundary or enter another domain. It started with the USA stating that they are ready to create hybrid humans or chimera. Chimera as defined by the US as a non-human life form that is engineered or having a face like human or body morphologies to look like human or a life form with a combination of human and non-human DNA. 

The reasoning is to compete with China. The idea of a super-human is no longer a conspiracy theory based on the headways made so far. Many other nations may join this race or competition. It is being called a threat for national security.

It is a time when things can get confusing. The environment and the set up for sin is made legal and promoted in every society. We are fast approaching another turning point in human history, perhaps the rapture and or the tribulation. A turning point like that in Genesis 6.

I pray that you are able to see God's plan for you in this time. I pray that God gives you clear vision and guides you each day in Jesus name. 

If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Saviour you may say this prayer;

Dear Heavenly Father,

I ask you to forgive my sins in knowledge or ignorance. Please forgive me. I accept Jesus as my Saviour. I ask that Jesus comes into my life as I live to be a witness for Him. Please change my life and make me into the person you want me to be, in Jesus name I pray. Thank you.
