Telling the Truth in the Realm of Lies
December 14, 2005 — Those struggling to come to terms with Germany's absurd "holocaust denial" laws must first understand that they really have nothing to do with the alleged Jewish holocaust and the affirmation or refutation thereof. Were that the case, there would be no reason to use them, since truth, being self-evident and requiring neither proof nor vast armies of supporting lawyers and judges, would stand on its own merits and win the day. . .
Ostensibly designed to protect a controversial and hotly disputed post-war narrative written against the backdrop of contrary findings established by the Red Cross and British and American occupation tribunals, these ridiculous impositions on intellectual inquiry and the resultant show trial of the historian and patriot Ernst Zundel are now, despite an almost total nationwide media blackout, having the effect of exciting the curiosity of younger Germans who simply refuse to be told what to think without the benefit of a free and open public debate. . .
A frail old man is sitting in a prison cell all alone. In the eyes of God he has committed no crime, yet those who hate him call him a Nazi and a holocaust denier simply because he made the "mistake" of translating his love of country and the German people into a passionate search for the truth. When his supporters quote from the New Testament and admonish, in the words of Jesus, those who hide in the dark "for fear of the Jews", they are labeled as anti-Semites and Hitlerites, which, by implication, would make the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel a Nazi.
In Canada and Scandinavia, Zionist lawyers and their allies in government and big business have very nearly criminalized the New Testament as "hate literature." In August 2000, two Zionist lawyers in Germany almost succeeded in winning an injunction against publishers of the Bible in an attempt to redact the words of Jesus because they regarded them as "anti-Semitic." Family Minister Christian Bergmann eventually rejected their application to have the Bible banned or placed on the "dangerous books" list.
Many Christians are slowly waking up to this diabolical, Satanic deception and are beginning to see that it was secular, political Zionism that tricked them into believing these lies and distortions, finally listening to our beloved Brother Judah—real ethnic Jews who read the Torah daily . . . are learning the truth about all the Zionist wars and acts of terror that have wracked our little planet over the last century, from the 1916 blackmail of the British establishment and the audaciously premature claim that King Wilhelm of Germany had secretly murdered six million Jews before 1914 to the financing of Hitler's rise to power through banks in Wall Street and the City of London, from the complicity of the Zionist Party of Germany in the persecution of their own kind to the Israeli false flag attack on the USS Liberty, from the Lavon Affair and the bombing of the King David Hotel in 1948 to the possible involvement of Mossad and their ad hoc "Urban Moving Company" in steering the horrific events of September 11, 2001.

Zionist Terrorist Attacks on Rense.com
December 12, 2005 — It's time to make more of our listeners and site visitors aware of how vile, psychotic terrorist enemies of Freedom, Liberty and the American way of life continue to try to damage our program and news service.
The true nature of most Zionists who pretend to support freedom is actually one of libel, slander, character assassination, terrorism and death threats. . . They are petrified that an open, honest investigation would be held to carefully examine the facts of history—and their plots and schemes—which would bring to light the enormity of the distance between their manipulative, suspect and terribly conflicted version of 'history' and the FACTS.
These dark entities are past masters at using the identical, heinous, tactics of Nazi Germany to hound and endeavor to destroy those who disagree with them. They would not hesitate for a moment to fill trains to US concentration camps, man real gas chambers and engage in genocide on American soil. Full story: rense.com
Comment: Join the club.In Galatians 4:27-5:1, Paul compares Ishmael, the child of the bondwoman, with Isaac, the child of the free, making a parallel between the Law and Christian faith. Whereas Ishmael persecuted Isaac, today Israel born of earthly Jerusalem after the flesh persecutes Christians born of heavenly Jerusalem by the Spirit of Promise.
Germany still in Juridical Limbo
Potsdam, December 15, 2005 — The Allied occupation of Germany began 58 years ago this month, and in the eyes of many Germans has not yet ended. Foreign armies are still based on German soil and Europe's largest and most prosperous "democracy" still lacks a constitution and a peace treaty putting a formal end to the Second World War. . .
The illegal German government in Berlin is so worried about the publicity, it has leaned heavily on newspapers not to report on such matters and it has instructed judges to dismiss cases where a defendant is likely to prove that his citizenship of the German Reich permits him not to recognize the BRD and its courts as legitimate administrative constructs. They are horrified at the publicity each of these cases brings. . .
"The German government is illegal," Ebel told AFP, "and what they do has no basis in law." Asked how it could be that the German people are unaware of this situation, Ebel said: "The German media is still under the control of the Allies. The entire media is controlled. . . German sovereignty is compromised. "Until we have a peace treaty, Germany is a colony of the United States." Full story: rense.com Comment: See Newsletter 344
Bush Proud of His Big Ears
October 19, 2005 — In his weekly message Saturday, he proudly acknowledged having authorized the very secret National Security Agency to set up such wiretaps after the September 11, 2001, attacks to put under surveillance "persons linked to al-Qaeda and other similar terrorist organizations." This "vital tool in the war against terrorism" will continue to be used, he declared. He pushed his effrontery so far as to accuse, without naming it, the New York Times—which on Friday revealed the existence of this secret program . . . Full story: truthout.org

Homosexual Child Prostitution Ring involving George Bush Sr.
In the high stakes world of global politics, it is common practice to procure sexual favors in the hopes to gain leverage or to gain power through blackmail. It's done all the time. The Soviets did it. The Americans do it, and many other countries as well. The following is the bizarre and very real child sexual prostitution ring involving the Republican elite of Washington. And the trail leads right up to George H. W. Bush. . . Full story: voxfux.com Comment: "As it was in the days of Lot" (Luke 17:28-30).
The Age of Autism: 'A Pretty Big Secret'
Chicago, December 7, 2005 — "We have a fairly large practice. We have about 30,000 or 35,000 children that we've taken care of over the years, and I don't think we have a single case of autism in children delivered by us who never received vaccines," said Dr. Mayer Eisenstein, Homefirst's medical director who founded the practice in 1973. Homefirst doctors have delivered more than 15,000 babies at home, and thousands of them have never been vaccinated.

Jubilee Part I
Genesis 1:14, "God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs or revelations of things to come, for appointed times or seasons, and for days, and years. And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: He made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the fourth day".
The 12 signs of the Zodiac each have three ancient constellations, which together with the 12 make a total of 48 signs. The number 12 pervades the heavens because it is one of the four perfect numbers, the number of governmental perfection; hence it is associated with the rule of the heavens, for the sun is given "to rule the day," and the moon "to govern the night." The great circle of the heavens is divided into 360o and it is this division of the Zodiac which gives us the 12 months of the Zodiacal year and the 360 days of the Prophetic year used in Bible prophecies.
The Sun is the star that governs the daytime; its antitype the Son of God is the Day Star who arises in our heart with the ever-shining Light of revealed Word once we are born-again: our Husband who rules and keeps us "walking in the Light as He is in the Light," for there can be no shadow of darkness about Christ's Bride, the New Jerusalem. By the Sun we reckon time by days and years, by his wife, the Moon, we reckon the months and fertility. The Moon rules the night, and determines seed-time and harvest by its gravitational attraction.
Psalm 147:4, "God counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name" (Isaiah 40:26). It is significant that throughout all nations and cultures the names of the constellations and the configurations and symbols of the zodiac are consistent, disclosing the revelation of God to Adam. It was in Babylon that God's Message of the stars was perverted into astrology, and faith into religion.
The heavens portray God's first Bible, declare Eve's deception by the Serpent and the fall of man, foretell the suffering Savior, His resurrection, the restoration of all things, and the glory of God in Jesus Christ, His Bride and the ancient saints (Psalm 19:1-4). So the stars are signs of things that are to be: warnings and summonses to appointed times of meeting with God, or dispensations of worship. Thus we find their antitype in the seven Church Age messengers whose Messages lit the lamps of seven consecutive Church Ages that shone through worldly darkness as signs of their time or dispensation in the absence of the Sun of Righteousness (Ephesians 1:10; Revelation 1:20 – 3:22).
Quoting Psalm 19 in Romans 10:17-18 Paul identifies type with antitype, "So faith comes by hearing, and what is heard comes by the preaching of Christ. What about Israel? Have they not heard God's Word? Yes indeed, for It has gone wherever they are; the Message has been told to the ends of the earth." There is no escaping God's testimony, whether It be through the foolishness of preaching or the witness in the stars. "From the creation of the world men have seen earth and sky, and all creation declares His invisible nature, His eternal power and deity, so they are without excuse" (Romans 1:17-32).
Each year the stars set 50.2 seconds later so that in 2,156 years they fall back 30 degrees. With this discovery we can calculate that when the circle of the Zodiac was drawn, the position of the stars in relation to Earth was almost 90 degrees from where it is today, which would place the date of its drafting in the days of Adam—around 4000BC.
According to Job 38:31-33, it was God who established the zodiac and caused its members to maintain their precise position and timing in relation to one another. These signs of time are later identified with the twelve sons of Jacob (Genesis 37:9). The blessings of Jacob (Genesis 49) and of Moses (Deuteronomy 33) both bear witness to the existence of these signs in their day. Israel is God's time piece because blood Israelites obedient to the Old Covenant live in a fixed geological position and timing in relation to one another and to the heavens. Therefore we can see that God cannot deal with Israel as a nation until all of her elect return to their position in the land. Outside the Land, God's Covenant with Israel is without effect. Outside the land they are unable to observe God's appointed times of meeting, such as their weekly sabbath, or determine the dispensations. Israel was never outside the Promised Land without God setting a time for their return. This explains Isaiah 66:8, "a nation shall be born-again in one day" (Romans 11:26; Revelation 11:13).
The first natural division of time is stamped by the Number seven. On the seventh day God rested from His work of Creation. When He ordained the ritual for Israel which should show forth His work of Redemption, seven was again stamped upon it in all its times and seasons. The seventh day was the holy day; the seventh month was specially hallowed by its number of sacred festivals; the rest for the seventh year was the Sabbatic year of land, while seven weeks of years marked the year of Jubilee (Leviticus 25:4,8).
Forty jubilees less ten years brought Abraham and his natural seed from the first Exodus to the opening of Messiah's ministry. Reading Isaiah 61:2, Jesus proclaimed "the acceptable year of the Lord" in a seven-fold prophecy. Luke 4:18-21, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because:
- He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor;
- He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
- To preach deliverance to the captives,
- And recovering of sight to the blind,
- To set at liberty them that are bruised,
- To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
- This day is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears".
The great symbolical divisions of the times of God's dealings with Israel are marked by the number seven; and if we confine ourselves to duration rather than succession of years—with kairos time, a definitely limited portion or dispensation of "opportunity" time, rather than with chronological dates or chronos time, we shall have no difficulty. God's dealings with His people have to do with actual duration of time rather than with specific dates; and we find that His dealings with Israel were measured out into four periods, each consisting of 490 (70 times 7) years. Thus:
- From Abraham to the Exodus.
- From the Exodus to the Dedication of the Temple.
- From the Temple to Nehemiah's return.
- From Nehemiah to the Second Advent (Daniel's Seventieth Week).
It is clear that these are periods of duration having regard only to Israel, and to God's immediate dealings with them. For in each one there is a period of time during which He was not immediately governing them, but in which His hand was removed, and His people were without visible tokens of His presence with them.
1. From the birth of Abraham to the Exodus Years Total From the birth of Abraham to the giving of the covenant of Genesis 11:29-12:4 was 75 years plus 430 years to the Exodus and confirmation of Exodus 3:12 and the giving of the Law according to Exodus 12:40-41 and Galatians 3:16-17 505 Deduct the 15 years while Ishmael was Abram's seed, delaying the seed of promise - 15 Leaving the first 70 x 7 of years 490 Abraham was 75 years old when the promise (Genesis 12:4) was made to him. The Law was given 430 years after (Exodus 12:40; Galatians 3:17). But 430 and 75 make 505 years, or 15 years over the 490. How are we to account for this gap of 15 years as forming part of the 505 years? The answer is that at Abraham's departure into Canaan (Genesis 12:4) he was 75 years old, Ishmael was conceived 10 years after (Genesis 16:3), therefore Abraham was 85 years old at Ishmael's conception. But he was 100 years old when Isaac was born (Genesis 21:5). Therefore it follows that there were 15 years (100 minus 85=15) during which Ishmael was occupying and usurping the place of the "promised seed"; and 15 from 505 leaves 490. Here then we have the first of the seventy sevens of years, and the first "gap" of 15 years.
2. From Exodus to the foundation of the Temple (Acts 13:20) Years Total In the Wilderness 40 Under the Judges 450 Saul 40 David 40 Solomon (I Kings 6:1,37) 3 But from these we must deduct the Captivities under 573 Cushan (Judges 3:8) 8 Eglon (Judges 3:14) 18 Jabin (Judges 4:3) 20 Midianites (Judges 6:1) 7 Philistines (Judges 13:1) 40 93 Leaving 480 To this we must add the years during which the Temple was in building, for the finishing of the house (I Kings 6:38) 7 And at least for the furnishing and ending of all the work (I Kings 7:13-51) 3 Making altogether the second 70 x 7 of years 490 The actual number of years was "about" 573, according to Acts 13:20. But I Kings 6:1 says: "It came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel were come out of Egypt . . . he began to build the house of the Lord." However, the number is ordinal, not cardinal, and it does not say four hundred and eighty years, but "in the four hundred and eightieth year." The 480th from or of what? The 480th year of the duration of God's dealings with His people, deducting the 93 years while He had "sold them" into the hands of others. Thus there is no discrepancy between I Kings 6:1 and Acts 13:20. In the Acts the actual number of years is stated in a cardinal number; while in the Kings a certain reckoning is made in an ordinal number, and a certain year in the order of God's dealings with His people is named.
The 18 years of Judges 10:8 were part of the joint 40 years' oppression; on the one side of Jordan by the Philistines, and on "the other side of Jordan in the land of the Amorites" by the Ammonites.
The Temple was dedicated in the seventh month (I Kings 8:2), however, it was finished in the eighth month. Therefore it could not have been the same year; and it may well have required three years for the completion of all the interior work described in I Kings 7:13-51.
3. From the Dedication of the Temple to Nehemiah's return in the 20th year of Artaxerxes Years Total From the dedication in I Kings 8:2 to Nehemiah's return (Nehemiah 2:1) 560 Deduct the 70 years' Captivity in Babylon (Jeremiah 25:11,12; Daniel 9:2) 70 Leaving the third 70 x 7 years 490 From the Servitude to Nehemiah's return, Judah's national independence was in abeyance so these years were not accounted to God's dealings with Israel as a nation. As the Israelites were God's servant nation the days of Israel's servitude to the Gentiles and Serpent's seed are ignored in the Divine chronology but once the chastisement has been meted out, God forgives. He likewise forgets the sin (Hebrews 10:17), which doubtless means the record is erased, and the period treated as if it were a blank. This helps us to understand why the last three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week is not accounted to Israel as an election of God's people.
Following the resurrection of their two Hebrew prophets who lie dead four days like Lazarus, the 144,000 are resurrected Spiritually, or born-again (Romans 11:15-16; Revelation 11:7-13), and God's dealings with Israel as His people is fulfilled other than to exact their "life for His Life" in their martyrdom by Rome and the apostate Jews who "cleave to them with flattery" as their forefathers joined with Rome in His murder (Daniel 11:34; Revelation 6:11). Over the balance of the last three and a half years, God will pour out His retributive justice on the sinners, "cut off" the apostate Israelites in the midst of their last week as He was "cut off . . . in the midst of the week," and cleanse Earth for the descent of Daniel's holy City, the New Jerusalem, and a thousand years of peace (Daniel 9:24).
4. From Nehemiah's return to the "cutting off" of "Messiah the Prince" (Daniel 9:24-27) Years Total The "Seven weeks" (7x7) 49 The "Threescore and two weeks" (62x7) 434 483 "After" Messiah was "cut off" came the Gentile dispensation, the longest interval of all, now more than 1970 years. Thus if the principle of not accounting time to Israel when her national independence was in abeyance were intelligible to the Jew in regard to history, it was both natural and legitimate to introduce it in respect of the years of Daniel's Seventy Weeks when Judah's existence is in abeyance, for when wicked hands crucified our Lord, God pronounced the dread "Lo-ammi" upon the people (Hosea 1:9-10; Romans 9:25-26) "until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in" (Romans 1:26). +1973 To be followed by "One week", when God again deals with Israel 7 490 This "one week" is yet future, for since Messiah was "cut off" no Roman "prince" has come and made a covenant with the Jews then caused "the sacrifice and the oblation to cease in the midst of the week." However, a Fundamental Agreement Between the Holy See and the State of Israel was signed on December 30, 1993, and the Luciferian power has been jockeying both parties into position to act out their roles written in the Scripture in order to bring them together in controlled conflict for mutual destruction to fulfill the prophecy of Matthew 4:8-9 and bring the world under the pure Luciferian worship.
This is specially stated to be the work initiated by "the Prince that shall come." It will be accomplished by "the little horn" of Daniel 7:8,15-28, Revelation 13, and 17, "the vile person" of Daniel 11:21,31, and 12:11. These passages describe the work of the Antichrist, not Christ as some believe. Besides, Messiah was "cut off" after the "threescore and two weeks," at the end of the second of these three divisions. This cannot be the same event as that which is to take place "in the midst" of the third of these three divisions. In a prophecy so distinct, that the very distinction is the essential part of it, it is impossible to take an event declared to take place "after" the end of the second period and say that it is the same event which is spoken of as taking place in the middle of the third; and at the same time, out of five distinct descriptions of the latter event to make one refer to the former and four to the latter.
Thus the number seven stamped on "the times and seasons" of Scripture marks the spiritual perfection of the Divine Prophecies. Every seventh year in Israel was a sabbatical year when agricultural land rested as there was to be neither sowing nor harvest of anything that has not produced of itself. And every forty-ninth year, that is, after a week of sabbatical years, there was a Jubilee when slaves were to be released, debts settled, and mortgaged land returned free to its owner. Therefore the fiftieth year was the Jubilee, a second year in which there was to be neither sowing nor harvest of anything that has not produced of itself and the grace of God. The Jubilee was also the first year of the next sabbath of years and the first year of the next 49 years.
As the land rested two years—the sabbath year and the succeeding year of jubilee—Jehovah Jireh commanded a bounteous blessing on the harvest of the sixth year to supplement the natural abundance until the harvest of the ninth year (Leviticus 25).
Israel's Jubilee will be announced on the fulfillment of their Day of Atonement prophesied in Leviticus 16; 23:26-32, Zechariah 12 – 13:8, and in Revelation 11:13; 14:1-5,12-20; 15:1-4, when 144,000 elect blood Israelites recognize Messiah and mourn for their sin of following the sins of their forefathers by rejecting Him as their kinsman Redeemer and His atonement those past seventy jubilees.
This will be "the time of Jacob's trouble, but he will be saved out of it" (Jeremiah 30:7; Romans 11:25-36). It is the great tribulation of Revelation following the close of the antitype of the Pentecostal Feast, (which is the Gentile dispensation), in the last week or seven years of Israel's chastisement under the "times of the Gentiles" as Moses prophesied in Leviticus 26:14-46 (Matthew 24:21-34; Joel 2:32).
When Israel disbelieved God's promise to Abraham at Kadesh Barnea and followed human wisdom against His revealed Word, which is the unforgivable sin (Numbers 13-14; Hebrews 3; 6:4-8), God determined that the adults should not enter the Promised Land. Without faith they were unworthy of the blessings of Abraham's unconditional grace covenant, so when Moses served God on Mount Sinai after delivering the people from Egypt in fulfillment of God's token of Exodus 3:12, God placed the nation under a secondary covenant of Law without faith which required obedience no man could render.
Within about a fortnight, while Moses was still on the holy mount receiving the first tablets of the Law, Israel broke its covenant, fabricated a golden idol it was worshiping, naked. After this second episode the names of the unbelievers were blotted from the Book of Life (Exodus 32:33; John 6:49; Titus 3:10-11; Hebrews 3; 6:4-8).
God deals with Abraham and an election of his natural seed over forty jubilees 49x10x4 (or 490x4 prophetic years). These eras are interrupted by intervals during which He has lifted His hand because of unbelief and pronounced the dread "Lo-ammi" upon the people. Thus Israel's fortieth jubilee was deferred by their unbelief at Calvary and one week of years remains in which God will fulfill the sixfold purpose of Gabriel's instructions (Daniel 9:24).
Romans 9:25-29, "As Hosea said, I will call the Gentiles My people, who were not 'My people,' and she who was not loved, 'My beloved,' (the Gentile Bride of Jesus Messiah). And in the very place where it was said to them, 'You are not My people,' they will be called Sons of the living God."
"Isaiah also cried out concerning Israel, 'Though the number of the sons of Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant will be saved: for the Lord will execute His sentence upon the Earth, and cut the work short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.' As Isaiah also foretold, 'Unless the Lord of hosts had left us children, all Israel would have been destroyed—as everyone in Sodom and Gomorrah perished" (Hosea 1:9-10; Isaiah 10:22; 28:22; 1:9). Blood Israelites will have just the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth in which to be born-again, at that time there will be no salvation outside the Land of Israel.
Abraham is the father of faith; when his name was changed from Abram, meaning 'exalted father,' to "Abraham," meaning 'Father of the Gentiles,' this signified the virgin-born Messiah, his Seed of promise, not sex, would be rejected by Israel so that we Gentiles could receive the blessing of Abraham as Moses prophesied in Genesis 9:27 (Isaiah 11:19; 53:1 – 54:1-5; 56:3; Hosea; Malachi 1:11).
Matthew 3:9, "John the Baptist admonished Israel, Don't presume to say to yourselves, We have Abraham as our father: I tell you, God is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham." We Gentiles are those "stones" of Abraham's Seed by the baptism with the Holy Ghost: "the seed of the blessed of the Lord," the Master stone of Nebuchadnezzar's dream (Isaiah 65:23; Daniel 2:34-35,44-45).
During the first three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week, when God turns back to Israel, two Israelite prophets, not Jews, anointed in the Spirit and power of Moses and Elijah will restore them to the true revelation of Yahweh Torah, which they rejected for Pharisaism—the Talmudic traditions we call Judaism today—that renders the Law void and deprives the Prophets of their force and effect (Isaiah 29:13; Matthew 15:6-9). They will then reveal the prophetic history of Israel's chastisement under Seven Trumpets during the intervening thirty Jubilees when the Lord was dealing with Spiritual Israel, the Bride of Christ, an election of Israelites who received Messiah and the blessings of Abraham in a new birth, and Gentiles who received the same blessing by recognizing the unfolding "Spirit" of the prophecies Israel rejected in favor of man-made traditions and interpretations of "the letter without the Spirit".
Ours are Pentecostal jubilees as was the jubilee for the Old Testament saints who rose after the Atonement sacrificed on Calvary. Only Israel who rejected Messiah will have to attend the jubilee following their Atonement of mourning for the rejection of Messiah. Brother Branham said, "This has been the time of the Pentecostal feast. The Jews has laid silent; they rejected it. Now, they've got to be called back to the Atonement. We know Who the Atonement was; they didn't. And the trumpet sound after the Pentecostal jubilee calls the Jews together. Can't you see how that trumpet of persecution under Hitler and them blasted, and the Jews were forced to come together to fulfill the Scriptures?" (Feast of Trumpets 32:248).
National force put Israel in her homeland, and national force will put the church in the World Council of Churches, but the power of God will put His people in the Bride. The world forces this way, and the world forces that way, but the Word of God is the Spirit of God in a form we can receive by faith (John 6:63). It will translate Christ's Bride to the Wedding Supper in the Air, because once she recognizes her position in the Word she is in Christ (John 14:20). The national forces of the World Council of Churches will drive every organization into it, but the power of God will raise the Bride into glory, out of it.
"Watch the sound of the Trumpet . . . what it declares. The Trumpet, the Gospel Trumpet, see who can hear it. Remember those in the [denominational] walled cities could not come out in the jubilee. No, sir. They were in the walls; they stayed there. It was over; they were slaves [to the denominational system like Israel for] the rest of their life and had to be marked" (ibid 14:106; Exodus 21:1-6; Deuteronomy 15:12-18).
When Jesus read Isaiah 61:1-2a as recorded in Luke 4:16-21, He announced His commission was to preach the year of the coming Pentecostal jubilee attended by the inaugural members of the Church gathered in the upper room (Acts 2). He stopped reading in the middle of the verse, closed the Book, gave it back to the attendant and sat down, adding, "This day this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing." He didn't read the rest of it—"To proclaim the day of vengeance of our God"—because it pertains to His second or 'parousia' Coming. That would be Brother Branham's ministry, warning of judgment and revealing the way to escape the wrath of Almighty God (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7; Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 18:4).
Isaiah 61:2c-3 will be the ministry of Israel's two prophets who introduce Messiah's second or 'parousia' Coming to regenerate their souls, "to comfort all that mourn; (that's the 144,000 fulfilling Isaiah 12 and 13 when they recognize Messiah); to console those who mourn in Zion, to give to them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He might be glorified" in their new birth. The congregation in the synagogue at Nazareth had no need of knowing those things.
Aside from calendar error, AD33 was a jubilee: a Pentecostal jubilee.
