There is much confusion today over the identity of Babylon the Great, the
mother of harlots and abominations of the earth. Many Bible students conclude
that Rome is the mother of harlots. While Roman Catholicism is indeed a false
religion that contradicts scripture at every turn and preaches a false plan of
salvation, scripture does not support the idea of Rome being the great whore
mentioned in the book of Revelation. It is never wise to substitute one’s opinions
in place of scripture; this is where heresy comes from. Scriptural evidence shows
that earthly Jerusalem is Mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and
abominations of the earth. We are not only going to take a look at earthly
Jerusalem as the great whore, we are also going to see scriptural proof that Israel
has not been restored by God yet. What we see in the Middle East today is
nothing more than a Satanic counterfeit of the true Israel.

NOTE: All scriptures used come only from the Authorized Version of the Bible,
or as you may know it, the “King James” Bible. The modern versions are Satanic
counterfeits of the true Word of God, but that is for another time.
The Gospel of Jesus Christ
The gospel of Jesus Christ is the most important thing in the world. Without the gospel,
no one has any hope for eternal life. You must be born again, according to the Lord
Jesus Christ.
John 3:3, 7, “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say
unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God…
Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.”
What we must understand is that all mankind are sinners. None of us have any
righteousness of our own, and so nothing we do can earn us a spot in the kingdom of
God.
Romans 3:10-12, 20, 23, “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not
one: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is
none that doeth good, no, not one… Therefore by the deeds of the law there
shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin…
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
So what’s a sinner to do
if he can’t merit heaven by his own works? If he is not born again before he dies, he
will die in his sins and be condemned to eternal damnation.
But there is good news, which is what “gospel” means. The gospel, in simple
terms, is that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose
again the third day.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4, “Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you
the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein
ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto
you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that
which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the
scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day
according to the scriptures:”
There is no gospel which brings eternal life other than the gospel of Christ. So
what’s a lost sinner to do with the gospel of Christ? The Bible makes it plain: we must
believe the gospel in order to be saved. Jesus did all the work for us; all we must do
is believe on Him (believe, or put our faith in, the gospel).
John 6:28-29, “Then said
they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus
answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him
whom he hath sent.”
Romans 1:16, “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the
power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also
to the Greek.”
Friend, do you know you’re a sinner, guilty of breaking God’s commandments?
Do you know that the penalty for sin is eternity in the lake of fire? Do you know that you cannot save yourself by your own works? Do you believe the gospel of Jesus Christ?
Do you believe that He died for your sins, that He was buried, and that He rose again
the third day? Do you believe that your sins have been paid for in full? Is the gospel of
Christ your only hope for eternal life? If so, you are saved, irreversibly and permanently.
It is that simple. Salvation is a free gift, according to the Word of God.
John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that
whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Acts 16:30-31, “And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and
thy house.”
Romans 4:1-8, “What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining
to the flesh, hath found? For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof
to glory; but not before God. For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed
God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh
is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not,
but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for
righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto
whom God imputeth righteousness without works, Saying, Blessed are they
whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered. Blessed is the man to
whom the Lord will not impute sin.”
Romans 6:23, “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Galatians 3:22-24, “But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the
promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. But before
faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should
afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto
Christ, that we might be justified by faith.”
Ephesians 2:8-9, “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.”
The Great Whore of Revelation
Revelation 17 is the central chapter of study in this section. We will be looking at
evidence provided by the scriptures that proves that earthly Jerusalem is indeed the
mother of harlots and abominations of the earth.
REVELATION 17
Verse 1: “And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and
talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will show unto thee the
judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:”
The verse mentions the great whore sitting on many waters. Luckily, we are not
kept in the dark concerning what this represents. Later in the chapter, we are given the
meaning.
Revelation 17:15, 18, “And he saith unto me, The waters which thou
sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and
tongues… And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth
over the kings of the earth.”
In other words, the great city will rule over the earth during the Tribulation via
one-world government. The great city will be the world’s capital, and will be the same
city that the Jewish Antichrist will rule from.
Verse 2: “With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the
inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.”
Jerusalem has a history, according to the Bible, of fornicating with the kings of
the earth. Here, fornicating is not referring to the physical act of sexual intercourse, but
rather spiritual fornication, aka idolatry. Here is an example:
Ezekiel 16:25-29, “Thou
hast built thy high place at every head of the way, and hast made thy beauty to
be abhorred, and hast opened thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiplied
thy whoredoms. Thou hast also committed fornication with the Egyptians thy
neighbours, great of flesh; and hast increased thy whoredoms, to provoke me to
anger. Behold, therefore I have stretched out my hand over thee, and have
diminished thine ordinary food, and delivered thee unto the will of them that
hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, which are ashamed of thy lewd way.
Thou hast played the whore also with the Assyrians, because thou wast
unsatiable; yea, thou hast played the harlot with them, and yet couldest not be
satisfied. Thou hast moreover multiplied thy fornication in the land of Canaan unto Chaldea; and yet thou wast not satisfied herewith.” We see here that the Jews
worshipped the gods of the Egyptians, the gods of the Assyrians, and the gods of the
Canaanites and the Chaldeans. Idolatry was rampant in Israel at that time.
You may be asking: “How do you know God is talking about Jerusalem?”
The answer is found in the beginning of the chapter.
Ezekiel 16:1-2, “Again the word
of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, cause Jerusalem to know her
abominations,”
This verse also mentions the wine of fornication. Since Jerusalem fornicated
spiritually with other nations, the inhabitants were made drunk with the wine of her
fornication. In other words, they were corrupted by the idolatries. This is illustrated in
Jeremiah 51:7 and Ezekiel 16:15.
Jeremiah 51:7, “Babylon hath been a golden cup
in the LORD’s hand, that made all the earth drunken: the nations have drunken
of her wine; therefore the nations are mad.”
Ezekiel 16:15, “But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst the
harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one
that passed by; his it was.”
Verse 3: “So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a
woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having
seven heads and ten horns.”
This is the same beast mentioned in Revelation 13, who comes up out of the
sea. Remember that the sea represents the world (“peoples, and multitudes, and
nations, and tongues”).
Revelation 13:1-2, 5-6, “And I stood upon the sand of the
sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns,
and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And
the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a
bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power,
and his seat, and great authority… And there was given unto him a mouth
speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to
continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against
God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in
heaven.”
The beast itself represents the Antichrist. This is proven by Daniel 11:36, where
we are told that the king exalts himself above all (including God), and speaks
blasphemies against the Lord.
Daniel 11:36, “And the king shall do according to his
will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall
6
speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the
indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.”
Let us not forget that the Antichrist will commit the ultimate blasphemy when
he stands in the rebuilt Jewish temple, claiming to be God.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4,
“Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there
come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is
worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, showing himself that
he is God.”
Now, the woman rides the beast. This does not mean that she controls the beast,
because as you will see later in the chapter, the beast will turn on her and destroy her.
Verse 4: “And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked
with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full
of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:”
This is where people errantly begin to assume that Rome is the great whore,
because the cardinals and priests wear scarlet and purple robes. However, it is not wise
to substitute one’s opinions in place of scripture.
It is important to note the colors purple and scarlet were used, not only in the
garb of the priests of Jerusalem, but also in the hangings and curtains of the Jewish
temple. This can be found in select passages of scripture from the book of Exodus.
Exodus 25:3-4, 26:1, 27:16, 28:2, 5-6, 38:18, 39:1, “And this is the offering which
ye shall take of them; gold, and silver, and brass, And blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine linen, and goats' hair... Moreover thou shalt make the
tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, and blue, and purple,
and scarlet: with cherubims of cunning work shalt thou make them... And for
the gate of the court shall be an hanging of twenty cubits, of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen, wrought with needlework: and their pillars
shall be four, and their sockets four... And thou shalt make holy garments for
Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty... And they shall take gold, and blue,
and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen. And they shall make the ephod of gold,
of blue, and of purple, of scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cunning work... And
the hanging for the gate of the court was needlework, of blue, and purple,
and scarlet, and fine twined linen: and twenty cubits was the length, and the
height in the breadth was five cubits, answerable to the hangings of the court...
And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do
service in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron; as the LORD commanded Moses.”
Notice that purple and scarlet are continually mentioned, as
well as fine linen, which will be mentioned later.
Verse 4 also mentions precious stones and pearls. Returning to Ezekiel 16, we
learn that Jerusalem has been decked with all sorts of precious stones and was very
beautiful in her youth.
Ezekiel 16:11-13, “I decked thee also with ornaments, and I
put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck. And I put a jewel on thy
forehead, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head.
Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen,
and silk, and broidered work; thou didst eat fine flour, and honey, and oil: and
thou wast exceeding beautiful, and thou didst prosper into a kingdom.”
We learn also, in Daniel 11, that the Antichrist, who will be a Jew according to
verse 37, will honor a false god with precious stones, gold, and silver.
Daniel 11:37-38,
“Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor
regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. But in his estate shall he
honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour
with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.”
Verse 5: “And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON
THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF
THE EARTH.”
Notice here that the word MYSTERY is included in the name. This is important
because this proves that the great whore is not literal Babylon, which was never the
main focus of scripture. MYSTERY is used because it is indeed a mystery.
Many Bible students errantly conclude that this refers to Rome because of the
term “mother of harlots.” Roman Catholicism is indeed a false religion, and it has
birthed several false religions such as the Episcopal Church and Lutheranism. However,
Jerusalem was around long before the Catholic Church came into being. By the way,
scripture also proves that Jesus did not establish the Catholic Church, but that is for
another time.
It should be noted that God Himself called Jerusalem the mother of harlots in
Ezekiel 16. Lots of Biblical truth to be found in Ezekiel 16, huh?
Ezekiel 16:44-48,
“Behold, every one that useth proverbs shall use this proverb against thee,
saying, As is the mother, so is her daughter. Thou art thy mother’s daughter,
that loatheth her husband and her children; and thou art the sister of thy sisters,
which loathed their husbands and their children: your mother was an Hittite,
and your father an Amorite. And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her
daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters. Yet hast thou not walked after their
ways, nor done after their abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing,
thou wast corrupted more than they in all thy ways. As I live, saith the Lord
GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done,
thou and thy daughters.”
The last verse says it all. Jerusalem was a whore, and so
were her daughters. She was the mother of harlots. Notice that Revelation 17:5 does
not say “the mother of all harlots.”
In the book of Isaiah, we find that Jerusalem, once a faithful city, had become
a harlot. It was once full of righteousness, but had become full of murderers.
Isaiah
1:21, “How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment;
righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.”
Verse 6: “And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with
the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great
admiration.”
This verse is saying one thing: the woman is guilty of the blood of the saints and
the martyrs of Jesus. Many Bible students try to use this verse when implicating Rome
as the great whore, because of the Catholic Church’s bloody history of killing true Bible believing Christians. While the Catholic Church is indeed guilty of this, the Bible tells a
different story regarding the great city.
There are several scriptures that reveal Jerusalem’s guilt in the blood of the
prophets and the martyrs. A good place to start is Matthew 23. Jesus tells the Pharisees
(a sect of Judaism; they were Jews) that their fathers killed the prophets, and He plainly
charges Jerusalem with this crime.
Matthew 23:29-37, “Woe unto you, scribes and
Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish
the sepulchres of the righteous, And say, If we had been in the days of our
fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the
prophets. Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of
them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. Ye
serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and
some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your
synagogues, and persecute them from city to city: That upon you may come all
the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto
the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and
the altar. Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even
as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!”
A similar passage is found in Luke 13. In this passage, we learn something
interesting: that it cannot be that a prophet be killed outside of Jerusalem.
Luke 13:33,
“Nevertheless I must walk today, and tomorrow, and the day following: for it
cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.”
Of course, Revelation 18 repeats the truth of Revelation 17:6 in verses 20 and
24.
Revelation 18:20, 24, “Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and
prophets; for God hath avenged you on her… And in her was found the blood of
prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.”
This truth is
also told in Revelation 16.
Revelation 16:6, “For they have shed the blood of saints
and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.”
Here are some examples from the Old and New Testaments documenting the
death of prophets and martyrs at the hands of the Jews of Jerusalem:
2 Kings 24:3-4,
“Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove
them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did; And
also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent
blood; which the LORD would not pardon.”
2 Chronicles 24:17-21, 36:14-16, “Now after the death of Jehoiada came the
princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened
unto them. And they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served
groves and idols: and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem for this their
trespass. Yet he sent prophets to them, to bring them again unto the LORD; and
they testified against them: but they would not give ear. And the spirit of God
came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, which stood above the
people, and said unto them, Thus saith God, Why transgress ye the
commandments of the LORD, that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken
the LORD, he hath also forsaken you. And they conspired against him, and
stoned him with stones at the commandment of the king in the court of the
house of the LORD… Moreover all the chief of the priests, and the people,
transgressed very much after all the abominations of the heathen; and polluted
the house of the LORD which he had hallowed in Jerusalem. And the LORD
God of their fathers sent to them by his messengers, rising up betimes, and
sending; because he had compassion on his people, and on his dwelling place:
But they mocked the messengers of God, and despised his words, and misused
his prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against his people, till there was
no remedy.”
Jeremiah 26:15, “But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye
shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon
the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak
all these words in your ears.”
Acts 7:51-60, “Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do
always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. Which of the prophets
have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which showed before
of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and
murderers: Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not
kept it. When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they
gnashed on him with their teeth. But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up
stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right
hand of God, And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man
standing on the right hand of God. Then they cried out with a loud voice, and
stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, And cast him out of the
city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s
feet, whose name was Saul. And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and
saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. And he kneeled down, and cried with a
loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he
fell asleep.”
According to Lamentations 4, the city of Jerusalem made herself guilty and
unclean by committing these heinous acts.
Lamentations 4:11-14, “The LORD hath
accomplished his fury; he hath poured out his fierce anger, and hath kindled a
fire in Zion, and it hath devoured the foundations thereof. The kings of the earth,
and all the inhabitants of the world, would not have believed that the adversary
and the enemy should have entered into the gates of Jerusalem. For the sins of
her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the
just in the midst of her, They have wandered as blind men in the streets, they
have polluted themselves with blood, so that men could not touch their
garments.”
Of course, the most damning evidence of Jerusalem being the great whore
drunken with the blood of the saints, the prophets, and the martyrs, is found in 1
Thessalonians 2. This passage of scripture plainly tells us that the Jews killed their
prophets and their Messiah.
1 Thessalonians 2:14-16, “For ye, brethren, became
followers of the churches of God which in Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also
have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted
us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men: Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins always: for the wrath
is come upon them to the uttermost.”
Verse 7: “And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell
thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath
the seven heads and ten horns.”
This verse has already been explained in previous sections; the beast is the
Antichrist, and the woman is the great city that reigns over the kings of the earth,
according to verse 18. We will, however, be able to get into the seven heads of ten
horns.
Verse 8: “The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the
bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall
wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation
of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.”
This is the same beast mentioned in Revelation 13. No new information is given,
other than the beast “was, and is not, and yet is.” Revelation 13 provides an
explanation for this phrase. Return to this chapter.
Revelation 13:1-8, “And I stood
upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his
feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the
dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of
his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and
all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which
gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like
unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto
him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto
him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in blasphemy
against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in
heaven. And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome
them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And
all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in
the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” We see that
the beast had a deadly wound, and yet it was healed. This could be the meaning behind
“was, and is not, and yet is.”
That is to say, the beast will die, and be resurrected, as a Satanic counterfeit of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. After his resurrection,
the beast will ultimately go into perdition.
We are told that the unsaved world, whose names are not in the book of life, will
worship the dragon and the beast during the Tribulation. Since the beast represents the
Antichrist, it is important to know who the dragon represents. You don’t have to go
far; the answer is found in Revelation 12.
Revelation 12:9, “And the great dragon
was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the
whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with
him.”
Verse 9: “And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven
mountains, on which the woman sitteth.”
Again, this is where people get confused and try to connect Rome with the
scriptures. While it is true that Rome is called “The City of Seven Hills”, the scriptures
clearly say “mountains” and not “hills.” The next verse tells us that the mountains
are not literal mountains at all.
Verse 10: “And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is
not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.”
Many Bible students make the mistake of labelling kingdoms, rather than kings,
when trying to explain this verse. Verse 10 specifically says “kings” and not
“kingdoms.” Yes, there have been world rulers before. At the time Revelation was
written, a world ruler was in place, but he was not the Antichrist, as scripture shows.
Verse 11: “And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the
seven, and goeth into perdition.”
How could the beast be the eighth ruler, and yet be of the seven, unless he was
killed and resurrected? Scripture tells us that the beast will have a mortal wound, and
yet will live.
Revelation 13:3, “And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to
death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the
beast.”
In other words, the Antichrist will reign twice. See Revelation 17:8 again:
“The
beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless
pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose
names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world,
when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.”
Verse 12: “And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have
received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.”
This is fairly simple. When the Antichrist comes into power, he will appoint ten
kings under him. This will be accomplished in merely an hour.
Verse 13: “These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto
the beast.”
The ten kings will all think the same, and they will give their power and strength
to the Antichrist. This means that the Antichrist will be the supreme world dictator,
who will have ten kings working for him, doing his bidding. In the infamous (yet
authentic) Protocols Of The Learned Elders Of Zion, the Antichrist is called the
“king-despot”, and also “the sovereign lord of all the world.”
Verse 14: “These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome
them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are
called, and chosen, and faithful.”
This verse needs no explanation. The Lord Jesus Christ will put down all
authority when He returns, and He will overcome the one-world government and the
Antichrist.
1 Corinthians 15:24-26, “Then cometh the end, when he shall have
delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power. For he must reign, till he hath put all
enemies under his feet. The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.”
Verse 15: “And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore
sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.”
This verse is self-explanatory. The whore, which is the great city, will be the world
capital during the Tribulation. This is the city which the Antichrist will rule from.
Verse 16: “And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate
the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and
burn her with fire.”
Here we learn that the ten kings will eventually turn on the city of Jerusalem,
burning her with fire and “stripping” her. We see this paralleled in Ezekiel 16 once
14
again, where God uses similar language to describe Jerusalem’s judgment.
Ezekiel
16:35, 38-41, “Wherefore, O harlot, hear the word of the LORD… And I will judge
thee, as women that break wedlock and shed blood are judged; and I will give
thee blood in fury and jealousy. And I will also give thee into their hand, and
they shall throw down thine eminent place, and shall break down thy high
places: they shall strip thee also of thy clothes, and shall take thy fair jewels, and
leave thee naked and bare. They shall also bring up a company against thee, and
they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords. And
they shall burn thine houses with fire, and execute judgments upon thee in the
sight of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from playing the harlot, and
thou also shalt give no hire any more.”
Verse 17: “For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and
give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.”
All this verse is saying is that God will use the ten kings to execute judgment
upon the city of Jerusalem because of its idolatry and its persecution and murder of
God’s servants, apostles, and prophets.
Verse 18: “And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth
over the kings of the earth.”
So we finally learn that the great whore is the great city that reigns over the kings
of the earth. The term “great city” is also found in Revelation 11:8, which tells us,
indirectly, the identity of this great city.
Revelation 11:8, “And their dead bodies shall
lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt,
where also our Lord was crucified.”
The great city is the same city where the Lord
Jesus was crucified. How do we know it was Jerusalem, and not Rome? The scriptures
tell us, of course.
Luke 9:28-31, “And it came to pass about an eight days after
these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain
to pray. And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his
raiment was white and glistering. And, behold, there talked with him two men,
which were Moses and Elias: Who appeared in glory, and spake of his decease
which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.”
Notice the last part of the last verse:
“…his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.” This also ties in with
the parable of the husbandmen and the vineyard, found in Matthew 21. Jesus was
addressing the Pharisees (which is a sect of Judaism) that He would die at Jerusalem.
This can be concluded by diligent study of the scriptures.
Matthew 21:37-39, “But last
15
of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. But when
the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir;
come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. And they caught him,
and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him.”
Revelation 11:8 tells us that earthly Jerusalem is spiritually called “Sodom and
Egypt.” This can be proven with several scriptures. For example, Isaiah and Jeremiah
both liken Jerusalem to the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because of its wickedness.
Isaiah 1:9-10, “Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small
remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto
Gomorrah. Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the
law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.”
This is referenced in Romans 9:29, “And
as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had
been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.”
Jeremiah 23:14, “I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible
thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of
evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto
me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.”
Earthly Jerusalem is also likened to Egypt in Revelation 11:8. This is a bit trickier
to find, but there is indeed a reference to earthly Jerusalem being like Egypt in
Galatians 4.
Galatians 4:22-26, “For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the
one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. But he who was of the
bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the
mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. For this Agar is mount
Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage
with her children. But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of
us all.”
Hagar, or Agar as she is known here, was an Egyptian woman, a bondwoman,
according to scripture. Scripture also tells us that Egypt was the house of bondage.
Exodus 20:2, “I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land
of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.”
In other words, earthly Jerusalem is not
only more spiritually wicked than Sodom (according to Ezekiel 16), it is also a city of
bondage (Egypt). This is why Revelation 11:8 refers to it as “Sodom and Egypt.”
Lastly, one more piece of evidence that Jerusalem is the great whore that reigns
over the kings of the earth is found in Revelation 21.
Revelation 21:2, 9-11, “And I
John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven,
prepared as a bride adorned for her husband… And there came unto me one of
the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and
talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed
me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even
like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;”
If the great whore of Revelation was Rome, why then would scriptures tell us of
a new Jerusalem? Shouldn’t it be a new Rome, if that was the case? The Bible warns us
of putting forth ideas that are not found in scripture:
Proverbs 30:6, “Add thou not
unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.”
Is the establishment of the State of Israel in
1948 a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy?
On May 14th, 1948, Israel was granted nationhood by the United Nations. The United
States of America and the Soviet Union were the first to recognize it as such. But was
it the fulfillment of Biblical prophecy as claimed by the Zionists?
Scripture tells us that Israel will be restored only when the Lord returns, and
not before. The answer to the above question is no. To truly understand why the State
of Israel exists today, we must examine what the scriptures say about our adversary,
Satan.
Satan’s real name is Lucifer, which means “light-bearer.” When Lucifer was
created, he was the brightest of all of God’s angels. However, his beauty and brightness
caused him to become arrogant and prideful, and he even went so far as to desire
equality with God:
Ezekiel 28:13-19, “Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God;
every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the
beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle,
and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee
in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth;
and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast
walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy
ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the
multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence,
and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain
of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones
of fire. Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy
wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee
before kings, that they may behold thee. Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by
the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffic; therefore will I
bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring
thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. All they
that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a
terror, and never shalt thou be any more.”
Satan wants to be just like God, according to Isaiah 14:14: “I will ascend above
the heights of the clouds: I will be like the most High.” This is important to know
because, if Satan wants to be like God, then we can conclude that he will imitate
everything God does in order to deceive the world into following/worshipping him.
An example of this is the Trinity. God has the holy Trinity (called the Godhead in the Authorized Version; this word has been completely removed from modern “bibles”)
which consists of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Satan’s unholy trinity
consists of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. The dragon is Satan’s
equivalent to the Father, the beast is Satan’s equivalent to the Son, and the false prophet
is Satan’s equivalent to the Holy Ghost.
Just as Christianity is God’s religion, Judaism is Satan’s religion. This is why
Jesus refers to the “synagogue of Satan” in Revelation 2 and 3.
Revelation 2:9, 3:9,
“I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know
the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the
synagogue of Satan… Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan,
which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to
come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.”
Judaism
is the religion that Paul was in before he got saved and became a born-again Christian.
Galatians 1:13-14, “For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’
religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted
it: And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation,
being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.”
The Bible is very
helpful in telling us exactly what a true Jew is: a true Jew is one who has believed the
gospel of Jesus Christ and has been born-again by receiving Him as one’s Saviour.
Romans 2:28-29, “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that
circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one
inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter;
whose praise is not of men, but of God.”
So far, we have established that Satan has his own trinity, his own religion, his
own Jews, his own Jewish messiah (the beast, which is the Satanic counterfeit of the
Lord Jesus, the true Messiah), and his own Jerusalem, which is earthly Jerusalem, not
heavenly Jerusalem. Naturally, it follows that Satan would have his own Israel as well.
This Israel, of course, is a counterfeit of the true Israel, which is spiritual, and not of
the flesh.
It is true, according to the scriptures, that God will restore the nation of Israel.
One example is found in the book of Ezekiel.
Ezekiel 36:19-24, “And I scattered
them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries:
according to their way and according to their doings I judged them. And when
they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name,
when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth
out of his land. But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had
profaned among the heathen, whither they went. Therefore say unto the house
of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name’s sake, which ye have profaned among the
heathen, whither ye went. And I will sanctify my great name, which was
profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and
the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall
be sanctified in you before their eyes. For I will take you from among the
heathen, and gather you out of all countries and will bring you into your own
land.”
Most people stop there and assume that this prophecy was fulfilled in 1948.
However, the next passage of scripture refutes this belief and proves that this prophecy
has not been fulfilled, and will not be until the Lord returns.
Ezekiel 36:25-28, “Then
will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your
filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. A new heart also will I give
you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart
out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit
within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my
judgments, and do them. And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your
fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.”
If you look at honest
research, stories, and history, you will find that this has not happened yet. Israel is a
wicked nation today who has not turned to the Lord.
This brings us to our next passage of scripture in Hosea, which tells us that
when Israel is restored, they will seek the Lord, and fear Him. At the present time, this
is not happening. The nation of Israel has not been seeking the Lord Jesus Christ; quite
the opposite, in fact:
Hosea 3:4-5, “For the children of Israel shall abide many
days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without
an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim: Afterward shall the
children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king;
and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.”
A passage of scripture in Ezekiel tells us that when Israel is restored, it will be
inhabited by resurrected believers, and will have a king. The State of Israel today does
not have a king, and is certainly not inhabited by resurrected believers, so therefore the
prophecy has not been fulfilled yet.
Ezekiel 37:13-14, 21-25, “And ye shall know that
I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought
you up out of your graves, And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and
I shall place you in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have
spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD… And say unto them, Thus saith
the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the
heathen, whither they be gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring
them into their own land: And I will make them one nation in the land upon the
mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all: and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at
all: Neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their
detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions: but I will save them out
of all their dwellingplaces, wherein they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so
shall they be my people, and I will be their God. And David my servant shall be
king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my
judgments, and observe my statutes, and do them. And they shall dwell in the
land that I have given unto Jacob my servant, wherein your fathers have dwelt;
and they shall dwell therein, even they, and their children, and their children’s
children for ever: and my servant David shall be their prince for ever.”
In the book of Genesis, God tells Abraham that the Promised Land would be
from the Euphrates River to the river of Egypt.
Genesis 15:18, “In the same day the
LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this
land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:” The State
of Israel today does not occupy all this land. Therefore, it is not the fulfillment of
Biblical prophecy. It is true, however, that Zionists are working to acquire more land
for the State. This is the main reason for the fraudulent “War on Terror.”
One must consider the facts of history behind the establishment of the State of
Israel in 1948. The history behind the creation of this State is filled with bloodshed,
thievery, and deceit. According to the Bible, the Lord hates all of these things:
Proverbs
6:16-19, “These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination
unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An
heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to
mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among
brethren.”
The history behind the creation of the State of Israel is filled with all of
these things, and yet Zionists (and their Christian Zionist lackeys) claim that God was
behind it. Consider this: would God really use unsaved Zionist terrorists to remove
unsaved Muslims from the land they were living on, to bring unsaved Jews to occupy
the land that they lost due to their idolatry? I think not. The simplest way to sum up the
1948 establishment of the State of Israel is: “armed insurrection.”
Finally, we must look at scriptures that clearly differentiate between true, spiritual
Israel, and the Satanic counterfeit Israel of the flesh. One example that we have seen
already is
Romans 2:28-29: “For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither
is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one
inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter;
whose praise is not of men, but of God.”
Another example is Galatians 3. I will
include select verses from this chapter that clearly differentiate between Israel of the
flesh and spiritual Israel:
Galatians 3:2, 6-9, 16, 26-29, “This only would I learn of
21
you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?...
Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.
Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of
Abraham. And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen
through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall
all nations be blessed. So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful
Abraham… Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith
not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ…
For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as
have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor
Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are
all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and
heirs according to the promise.”
These next two passages of scripture tell us that all born-again believers, from
every nation, will dwell in heavenly Zion when the time comes.
Psalm 87:3-6,
“Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah. I will make mention
of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with
Ethiopia; this man was born there. And of Zion it shall be said, This and that
man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her. The LORD
shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.”
Zechariah 2:10-12, “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion: for, lo, I come,
and I will dwell in the midst of thee, saith the LORD. And many nations shall
be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in
the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me
unto thee. And the LORD shall inherit Judah his portion in the holy land, and
shall choose Jerusalem again.”
There is much confusion over the following scripture. When you consider the
rest of the Bible, the scripture makes perfect sense.
Romans 9:6, “Not as though the
word of God hath taken none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of
Israel:” This is what the scripture means: “They are not all spiritual Israel, which
are of physical Israel.”
In other words, not all Jews are born-again, and do not have
any right to the spiritual Promised Land. Only those who have been born-again by
believing the gospel of Christ will inherit the Promised Land. This is not antiJewish teaching; this is Biblical teaching.
Romans 9:7-8, “Neither, because they are
the seed of Abraham, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not the children of
God: but the children of the promise are counted for the seed.”
Some people try to use Romans 11:26 in an attempt to suggest that Jews need
not be born-again.
Romans 11:26, “And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written,
There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness
from Jacob:”
However, if you recall Romans 9:6, we are told that not all of physical
Israel is saved. This sounds like a contradiction and an unnecessary verse until you
realize that Romans 11:26 is referring to spiritual Israel, not physical Israel. Only a
remnant of physical Israel will be born-again by the gospel. This is sad, but true.
Romans 11:5, “Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant
according to the election of grace.”
Another teaching that is refuted by scripture is that the Jews today are God’s
Chosen People. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Here’s why: Jesus told the
Pharisees in Matthew 21 that the kingdom of God would be taken away from them
and given to a nation bringing forth fruits.
Matthew 21:43, “Therefore say I unto
you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation
bringing forth the fruits thereof.”
In other words, because the Jews refused to preach
the gospel to the world (having gone into idolatry instead), God was moving to the
Gentiles to preach the gospel to the lost. This is supported by,
Romans 11:11: “I say
then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through
their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.”
God is not a racist and has no respect of persons. In fact, we are told in Matthew 3
that God could, if He wanted, make children of Abraham out of mere stones.
Matthew
3:9, “And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for
I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto
Abraham.”
Acts 10:34, “Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive
that God is no respecter of persons:”
Romans 2:11, “For there is no respect of persons with God.”
Perhaps the plainest piece of evidence that the Jews are not God’s Chosen
People today is the statement in Romans 10:12 that says there is no difference between
them and Gentiles: “For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for
the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.” So who are God’s
Chosen People? The answer is simple: all born-again believers are God’s Chosen
People.
1 Peter 2:9-10, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an
holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should show forth the praises of him who
hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: Which in time past
were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy,
but now have obtained mercy.”
That aside, there is one more piece of evidence that the State of Israel is not the
fulfillment of Biblical prophecy: look at the Israeli flag. You will see a hexagram in the
center of it. The hexagram is a Satanic occult symbol that is also known as the Star of
Moloch, the Star of Saturn, and/or the Star of Remphan. There is no such thing as
a Star of David, according to scripture. In fact, the scriptures tell us that the star was
used when Israel was going after false gods. Scripture also tells us that God does not
share His glory with another, nor does He give praise to graven images:
Isaiah 42:8, “I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not
give to another, neither my praise to graven images.”
Amos 5:25-27, “Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the
wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? But ye have borne the tabernacle of
your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to
yourselves. Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus,
saith the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.”
Acts 7:42-43, “Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of
heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye
offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the
wilderness? Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god
Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away
beyond Babylon.”
Clearly, Israel has not been restored in Biblical terms because of their use of an
occult symbol on their flag, which symbolizes idolatry.
One more teaching that needs to be refuted Biblically is the heresy that “God
will bless those who bless Israel and curse those who curse Israel.” There is no
such teaching in the Bible, but here is the verse that Christian Zionists point to as
“evidence”:
Genesis 12:3, “And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him
that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”
This is
one example of why “thee” and “thou” are important. “Thee” and “thou” refer to
the singular form of “you.” This was a promise that God made solely to Abraham
and to his seed, which, according to Galatians 3:16, is Jesus Christ.
Galatians 3:16,
“Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to
seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.”
It is evident
that Israel was not even mentioned in Genesis 12:3. Blessing Christ-rejecters, whether
they be Jew or Gentile, is not supported by scripture. In fact, one passage in particular
tells us that any born-again believer who blesses a Christ-rejecter is a partaker of their
evil deeds.
2 John 9-11, “Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine
of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both
the Father and the Son. If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth
him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.”
1 John 2:22, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He
is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.”
In other words, Christ-rejecters
are not only liars, we are not to bless them for any reason whatsoever. Yet Zionists
and their Christian Zionist lackeys command us to bless Christ-rejecting Jews. Look at
the history of America since 1909, when this heresy first infiltrated the churches via the
Scofield Reference Bible. America has been “blessing Israel” financially and
“spiritually” since 1909, and yet America is becoming more enslaved and less free.
Is this God’s blessing to America for supposedly “blessing Israel”? No. Scripture
even commands us not to help the ungodly.
2 Chronicles 19:1-2, “And Jehoshaphat
the king of Judah returned to his house in peace to Jerusalem. And Jehu the son
of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat,
Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? therefore
is wrath upon thee from before the LORD.”
Wrath is upon us from the Lord for
many reasons. One is that we have allowed our churches to be infiltrated by antichrist
Zionists who pervert the gospel of Christ, and we have refused to speak out against the
terroristic history of these Zionists. We are also guilty of supporting this fraudulent
“War on Terror” which has wiped out many innocent people in the Middle East who
had nothing whatsoever to do with 9/11. Our job, as believers, is to preach the gospel
to them, not bomb them because of Zionist deception.
Matthew 28:19-20, “Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the
end of the world. Amen.”
THE PURPOSE OF THIS ESSAY
Friend, I love you in the Lord, whoever you may be. I wrote this essay for two
kinds of people: the saved and the unsaved. If you are saved, I wrote this for you so
that you could know the truth, that the State of Israel is a fraud, a Satanic counterfeit
put on the map by the Rothschilds, Wall Street bankers, Zionists, and the United
Nations, and not by God. I also wrote this so that you could know that you are, in
fact, one of God’s Chosen People, and that you will have a spot in the Promised Land
when the Lord returns.
Ephesians 2:11-13, 19-22, “Wherefore remember, that ye
being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that
which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time
ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and
25
strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in
the world: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh
by the blood of Christ… Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners,
but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built
upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the
chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto
an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builded together for an
habitation of God through the Spirit.”
If you are unsaved, I wrote this so that you could also know the truth. I want
you to be saved, and so does God. God has promised a heavenly city for His bornagain children, but only those who are born-again will be able to live there. You must
be born-again through the gospel. Please refer to the section titled: “The Gospel of
Jesus Christ.”
Friends, remember that scripture tells us that even Abraham wasn’t looking for
an earthly country, but a heavenly country.
Hebrews 11:13-16, “These all died in
faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were
persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers
and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they
seek a country. And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence
they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. But now they
desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be
called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.”
