Not since Adam has there been one person or nation with power and dominion over the whole earth. This is the awesome position America holds by God's permissive will. As the Papal Roman beast has usurped the spiritual dominion belonging to the last Adam, her United States image is exercising the natural dominion forfeited to Satan by the first Adam.
Abraham Lincoln wrote, "I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. As a result of war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow and the Money Power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed. I feel at this moment more anxiety for the safety of my country than ever before, even in the midst of war. God grant that my suspicious may prove groundless" (Letter to Colonel William F. Elkins, November 21, 1864).
President Eisenhower warned in his farewell address to the nation, "We must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist".
Christians flowing with the tide of human reasoning and technology unconsciously lean upon knowledge, government and material resources to meet their needs. Thus our once Christian civilization has become Satan's scientific Eden of learning and acceptance without proof and reconciliation with the Absolute; without faith and without hope. We no longer feel the desperation of necessity to call upon the Lord when it is so easy for us to fall back upon the world.
We have made a rod for own backs with the military-industrial complex, which still employs the locals; alien-controlled central banks pirate our economies; the casuistry of Judaeo-Jesuitical laws has hijacked justice, usurped parliamentary authority and overridden national sovereignty in order to irrevocably bind us into Satan's global government. The West no longer has freedom and democracy and has reached the end of the line without Christ.
Senator Huey Long warned, "When fascism comes to America, it will come wrapped in an American flag." Vladimir Lenin said, "Fascism is capitalism in decay." Author Upton Sinclair said, "Fascism is capitalism plus murder;" Dennis Wholey, Charlie Brown and Jesus Christ say, "this is America" (Revelation 13:11-18).
Brother Branham said, "Believe the Message of the Bible. Believe Jesus Christ; and love, and honor, and respect one another. Men respect your wives; you respect your home. Bring your home together, because, you remember, this Lamb was for the home, not just one. The whole home too had to be brought; everything had to be brought in. We should love each other, and believers should separate themselves from the world" (The Token, p. 34:250; Exodus 12:3-4; Joshua 6:17; I Corinthians 7:14).
Stay under the Token. Have the Token on display at all times. "The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds." There is no reforming the world system, rest in the Token. It is your one way out of the world.
Paul taught, "All the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You shall love your neighbour as yourself" (Galatians 5:14).
And in I Corinthians 13:1-13: "If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy brass or a clanging cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And if I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and give my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing."
"Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful, is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in iniquity, but in the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
"Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will lose its meaning. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when the fullness of the Word is come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I understood like a child, I reasoned like a child; but when I became a man I gave up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall understand as completely as I am understood. Now abides faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love".
It is the love of God—Christ in you, the hope of glory—by which we overcome sin, sickness and the world.

New Oil Law means Victory in Iraq for Bush
London, January 8, 2007 – For Bush, victory is indeed at hand. . . At any time within the next few days, the Iraqi Council of Ministers is expected to approve a new "hydrocarbon law" essentially drawn up by the Bush administration and its UK lackey . . . the law will give Exxon Mobil, BP, Shell and other carbon cronies of the White House unprecedented sweetheart deals, allowing them to pump gargantuan profits from Iraq's nominally state-owned oilfields for decades to come. This law has been in the works . . . since months before the invasion. . .
What he seeks in Iraq is not freedom or democracy but "stability"—a government of any shape or form that will deliver the goods. . . No matter which party controls the government, the militarization of America is so far gone now it's impossible to imagine any major rollback in the gargantuan US war machine—725 bases in 132 countries, annual military budgets topping $500 billion, a planned $1 trillion in new weapons systems already moving through the pipeline. Indeed, the Democratic "opposition" has promised to expand the military. . . Full story: truthout.org
Comment: Of particular interest, ". . . the law should take effect in March" (Revelation 13:11-14). alternet.org
Bush's Rush to Armageddon
January 8, 2007 – "On January 4, Bush ousted the top two commanders in the Middle East, Generals John Abizaid and George Casey, who had opposed a military escalation in Iraq, and removed Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte, who had stood by intelligence estimates downplaying the near-term threat from Iran's nuclear program. . . . intelligence sources say the personnel changes also fit with a scenario for attacking Iran's nuclear facilities and seeking violent regime change in Syria."

Bush Tax Cuts offer most for Very Rich
Families earning more than $1 million a year saw their federal tax rates drop more sharply than any group in the country as a result of President Bush's tax cuts, according to a new Congressional study, which also shows that tax rates for middle-income earners edged up in 2004, while rates for people at the very top continued to decline. . .

Comment: Coup leaders are securing the loyalty of the rich and powerful while disempowering and eliminating the middle class. Never mind the poor, who are compliant as they have to eat.
Bush signing Statement claims Power to open Americans' Mail
President Bush has quietly claimed sweeping new powers to open Americans' mail without a judge's warrant. The president asserted his new authority when he signed a postal reform bill into law on December 20, followed by a "signing statement." Full story: truthout.org
Earthquakes in divers Places
Why no publicity for the obvious fact that global warming shifts a huge weight of water from the poles to the equator? Is earth's thin broken crust already showing strain? Explosion of a small atomic device by North Korea shocked the world. Next day sighs of relief as what was thought to be a second test was just a small earthquake in the vicinity. But signs of a sensitized earth are what should be making us shake in our shoes.
Earthquake activity is increasing! Can we assume that this is no more than natural variation? Why are we not warned of the speed at which natural forces can build? Why are we not reminded that large extinct animals were found in frozen Siberia with tropical vegetation in their stomachs?
Some claim sea level rise of a metre within forty years; if that spells disaster what do we call the growing arrogance of man?
One metric ton of water over every square metre of ocean, moved from polar icecaps to the equator, may not seem a lot for the earth to carry, but the loading is reversed. Earth's crust is not a load carrying shell! As we all should know, we live on the surface of a continually moving, broken crust. It floats on molten lava; it may stick here and there when loads stabilize but breaks free as pressure changes. Moving the load changes earth's shape and the pressure points!
Will this huge weight, moving from the poles to the equator create volcanic activity such as not seen since before the last ice age? This could turn earth from global warming to global catastrophe; within forty years a new ice age could begin! Full story: themindweb.com yahoo.com
God is able of these Stones to raise up Children to fulfill His Promise to Abraham
Matthew 3:7-9, "When John the Baptist noticed many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, O brood of vipers, who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Live the life of one who has repented: and do not presume to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as our father. That proves nothing! God is able of these stones to raise up children to fulfil His promise to Abraham".
The Jews stoned Stephen when he stated plainly how Israel had consistently blasphemed God and rejected His promise to Abraham (Acts 7:17-60). Stephen was pointing the nation back to the Song of Moses wherein the prophet said God would hide His face from Israel until the end-time, overruling their unbelief to bring us Gentiles into the Kingdom, which mercy would ultimately be shown to Israel in their restoration (Romans 11:7-32). The Song of Moses testifies that God's enemies are exclusively Israel after the flesh (Deuteronomy 32; Numbers 35:33; Zechariah 3:9), and foretells how us Gentiles will take their place as Spiritual Israel (Romans 10:19).
After Paul was redeemed, he taught that God's promise to Abraham was not to Israel by the Law, which was a curse from God (Nehemiah 10:29; Daniel 9:11; Romans 3:10-13), but to all the elect of Adam's race and by faith alone. Under orders of Rome's Jewish Emperor, Nero, Paul was beheaded on June 29, AD72 (Gittin 56a).
The Bible is a Book of symbols, shadows and types. As Paul explains in Hebrews 10:1, these "shadows of good things to come are not the very image of the things they foreshadow." Isaiah 42:21 foretold how in the fullness of time the Lord planned to magnify the Law and make it truly glorious thereby demonstrating to the world His righteousness. This He accomplished through the New Testament sealed in the Blood of His Messiah as Jesus explained in Matthew 5:17-48, expounding the "letter" by the "Spirit" to reveal motive and objective of the Law. So when Paul taught us to "put on the whole armour of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil" (Ephesians 6:11) we understand he was speaking metaphorically and that God's armour is not chain mail, steel helmets and swords, which are no defense against an evil spirit. "For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: (for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; being ready to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fully expressed" (II Corinthians 10:3-6).
Thus, whereas natural Israel was circumcised in the flesh, Spiritual Israel is circumcised in heart and ears. Whereas natural Israelites observed a weekly sabbath for their flesh in the land of Israel, Spiritual Israelites have entered an enduring rest for their soul in Christ, being born-again by the Word for their hour. Whereas natural Israel was commanded not to perjure themselves we are told not to swear any oath but to simply speak the truth.
Let us not be like Nicodemus, who was the epitome of a foolish virgin. When Jesus said, "Unless a man is born again, he cannot understand the kingdom of God," Nicodemus asked, "Born again! How can an old man go back into his mother's womb, and be born again?"
Revelation is a Book of Old Testament symbols naturally typifying or representing or recalling to mind the reality and substance of Spiritual promises by their analogous qualities which are but shadows of the fact.
So old Jerusalem is but a symbol of the new, for New Jerusalem is not a city behind stone walls and iron gates but God's dwelling place in the lively stones of His glorified saints. Ephesians 4 and 5 and I Peter 2 teach that God dwells in one Body comprised of many members or Spirit-quickened stones raised as children to Abraham built on the foundation of the faith of the prophets and apostles in witnesses to one Headstone as illustrated in this diagram.
Jerusalem means "foundation of peace" implying its divinely given stability. "His foundation is in the holy mountains [of Zion and Moriah, signifying double stability]. The Lord loves the gates of Zion [through which come the pilgrim saints from all nations] more than all the dwellings of Israel" (Psalm 87:1-2). "Now you [Gentiles] are no longer strangers to God and aliens to the Kingdom but fellowcitizens with the [Old Testament] saints, and members of God's household built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the Chief Cornerstone, in whom we who believe are carefully joined together with Christ as parts of a beautiful, constantly growing temple holy in the Lord: in whom you also are joined together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit" (Ephesians 2:19-22).
Metaphorically the foundations are the first principals of truth. Hence "Abram looked for a city which has foundations whose builder and maker is God" (Hebrews 11:10). Speaking of his ministry and that of Apollos, Paul taught "We are God's fellow workers. You are God's field, not ours; you are God's building, not ours. According to the grace of God given to me, like a wise masterbuilder I have laid the foundation, and Apollos is building upon it. But let each of you take care how you build upon it. For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ" (I Corinthians 3:9-11). So when John said, "The axe is already laid to the root of the trees: therefore every tree that fails to bring forth good fruit will be cut down and cast into the fire," he was not speaking of vegetation, but of spiritual principles that bear the Life of Christ, and of severing man-made dogma and traditions from God's unchanging Word (Matthew 15:1-9).
The ministry of John, the Elijah of Malachi 3:1, who introduced Christ's first or 'erchomai' Coming was a perfect type of the ministry of Brother Branham, the Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 who introduced Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming. His ministry laid the axe to all spiritual principles, restoring the Church to unchanging foundational faith once delivered by the apostolic saints (Isaiah 28:16; Malachi 4:5-6; Matthew 17:11; Revelation 18:1-4).
Revelation 21:3, 22-23 declares New Jerusalem will be the throne of God as earth was in the beginning (Genesis 3; Isaiah 66:1; Ezekiel 48:35; Joel 3:17), and the glory of Melchisedec will manifest in Christ and His Bride: we are His Temple, the Holy of Holies wherein He dwells, attended by the Old Testament saints and the 144,000 elect Israelites in the Holy Place. The City overshadowed by the Shekinah has no need of sun or moon while the redeemed earth without the 1,500 mile high Mount Zion is the antitype of the Outer Court of Old Jerusalem's Temple.
Jeremiah 3:16-17: "When you are multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, says the Lord, they shall say no more, The Ark of the Covenant of the Lord. It shall not come to mind, because they will not remember or miss it; for it shall not be made again [because it has been superseded by its antitype, the Lord Himself, who will be present (Malachi 3:1-4:6)]. At that time [New] Jerusalem will be the throne of the Lord, and all nations will be gathered to New Jerusalem in the Name of the Lord, and will no more stubbornly follow their own evil heart" (Revelation 21:3, 22-24; Isaiah 60).
Whereas Ezekiel's symbolical millennial temple distinguishes the secular from the consecrated, there will be no such distinction in the New Jerusalem wherein no part shall be separated from the rest as a "temple," for all shall be holy (Revelation 21:10-12).
Ezekiel saw a vision of the Shekinah glory departing Solomon's Temple six years before king Zedekiah rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar (Ezekiel 10). The king's disobedience to God brought the third investiture and the desolations of Jerusalem in the twelfth year of the Captivity (Ezekiel 33:21; II Kings 25:2-3, 8-9), with the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple. The Shekinah did not return to Zerubbabel's Temple for not only had Israel rejected the Theocracy (I Samuel 8:7) but the king they desired in God's place had forfeited national sovereignty to the Gentiles.
The Shekinah returned to the Temple of the body of Israel's God-King when Jesus was baptized by John. When Israel "cried out, Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him. . . We have no king but Caesar," they voted for Roman rule (Malachi 3:1; John 19:15), confirming Daniel's prophecy that Israel will remain under Roman dominion to the consummation of life on earth (Daniel 2:31-35; 9:27; Luke 21:24; Revelation 11:1-2).
The glory of the Lord will return to Israel when the nation is born in one day and the heart of the 144,000 elect Israelites becomes the place of His throne and the Presence of His holy Name (Ezekiel 43:2-7). They will be the living Millennium Temple in which Israel's King and Queen, Christ and His Bride will be enthroned in love. Ezekiel's ideal temple exhibits, under Old Testament forms (then familiar to the men whom Ezekiel, a priest himself, addresses), not the precise literal outline, but the essential character of the worship of Messiah when He rules from Jerusalem over the kingdom restored to Israel extending to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:6; Romans 2:9-10). As the old temple embodied in visible forms and rites spiritual truths affecting the people even when absent from it, so this ideal temple is made in the absence of the outward temple to serve by description the same purpose of symbolical instruction as the literal temple did by forms and acts. It is the promise of a complete restoration and realization of the theocratic worship and government under Jesus Messiah in its noblest ideal (Jeremiah 31:38-40; Acts 3:19-26).
Even the first earthly sanctuary was designated as the residence of the Name of the Lord (Exodus 20:21; Deuteronomy 12:5, 11). God's sabbath is not a day, but the Place where He has chosen to put His Name. Under the Old Testament God's chose to put His Name in the temple at Jerusalem where the Pascal lamb was slain (I Kings 8:16, 29; Deuteronomy 16:2, 6). In the New Testament the Place of His Rest is in Christ and His Bride: we are His temple for His Name is in us (Matthew 11:28-30; John 2:19; I Corinthians 3:16). The object of the assembling of the Gentiles was the fulfillment of God's promise, not to Jerusalem but to Abraham's Seed, Jesus Messiah, in whom is the Name of the Lord which belongs to Jerusalem, which is inseparably connected with the Name.
God presently dwells in His spiritual temple, the elect Church (I Corinthians 3:17; 6:19). In the renewal, Heaven shall come down to earth which will become the residence of God, who will dwell in Christ and His Bride as New Jerusalem's living Temple (Revelation 21:22).
Revelation is pre-eminently a symbolical book; by taking its imagery in the literal sense, it could be easily shown not only to contradict statements of the Old Testament, but to be self-contradictory. According to Revelation 21:22 there is no temple in the New Jerusalem; but Ezekiel describes at large a temple that will be there, and according to Revelation 3:12 the believer will abide perpetually in the temple of the City of God.
Paul said, "I will pray with the Spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the Spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also" (I Corinthians 14:15). Brother Branham said, "Like the Dutchman, you take me for what I mean and not what I say." We yearn for Life from the Logos, not death from the rhema without the Logos (II Corinthians 3:6).
In the new and heavenly Jerusalem on this regenerated earth after the millennium, Christ shall give up the priestly kingdom to the Father, because its purpose will have been fully completed "when He has destroyed every ruler and all authority and power. For He must reign, till He has put all His enemies under His feet; the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death" (I Corinthians 15:24, 28; Revelation 20:14-15). So there will be no temple there as God shall be all things to all people and "the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb shall be the temple" (Revelation 21:22).
Is there then a contradiction here? No. When in symbolical language it is said that there will be a temple in New Jerusalem, the meaning is that what will answer to the idea of a temple will be found there, but a material temple will be wanting in New Jerusalem. Our heart is now the Holy of Holies where Christ is enthroned and our mortal spirit His Holy Place, bringing our mortal flesh into subjection. At the body change our mortal spirit will be replaced by our theophany, and our exterior flesh glorified and pure as transparent gold. The saved will dwell in His Presence and continually worship Him manifest as Israel's King Messiah and His Queen. Worship does not mean singing but living "Hallelujahs" in heart-felt service.
The City is said to have a sun which will never go down; and in seeming contradiction, no sun will be seen there (Isaiah 60:19-20; Revelation 7:16; 21:23). So, too, the most perfect protection is symbolized under the figure of "a wall great and high" (Revelation 21:12-20); but the essential meaning is explained in Isaiah 26:1 which declares, "We have a strong City, God sets up Salvation as walls and bulwarks." His elect will be surrounded by salvation. "Eternal security" is a better defence of the city than artificial fortifications made with hands.
Regarding New Jerusalem, Isaiah 60:17-18 says, "I will make Peace your governors and Righteousness your taskmasters. Violence shall no more be heard in your land, neither devastation nor destruction within your borders. You shalt call your walls Salvation, and your gates Praise with Thanksgiving."
These gates are twelve entrances into salvation set in the wall of New Jerusalem; they bear the names of the twelve tribes of Israel and at the gates were twelve angels, the Patriarchs of Israel. Revelation 21:21, "And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate was a single pearl." The entrance into the kingdom of heaven is the simplicity of priceless revelation which must be sought unceasingly, forsaking all to apprehend and put on this treasure, which is the Life of Christ.
The twelve foundations in the wall between the gates bear the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb, four of which, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, comprise the four cornerstones to salvation reflecting the four living creatures or throne guards who directed the elect of God into the mystery of the Seal pertaining to their day of salvation. In 1800 French savants described sockets cut into the leveled rock to receive the four corner stones which represent the four Gospels of the spiritual antitype of the Great Pyramid.
Ephesians 2:11-13, 19-22, "Remember, that once you Gentiles in the flesh were called Uncircumcision by the so-called Circumcision made in the flesh by human hands; and that you were at that time separated from Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, living in the world without hope and without God. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were afar off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. . . Therefore you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but you are fellow citizens with the Old Testament saints and members of God's household, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief corner stone. The whole structure, framed together in Him, rises into a temple that is holy in the Lord, in whom you also are built up together for a dwelling of God in the Spirit".
We understand from this Scripture, and from Revelation 21 that the form of the New Jerusalem is a pyramid patterned after the Great Pyramid build by Enoch before the Flood as "an altar to the Lord in the midst of Egypt, and a monument to the Lord at its border" (Isaiah 19:19).
When Christ died, His body was buried but His soul put on His theophany and preached to the departed, condemning the lost and vindicating the Old Testament saints. On the third day He re-entered and raised His body in glorified form, and ascended to the seventh dimension where He cleansed the heavenly temple of the sins of the Old Testament saints. He then descended, leading them from captivity in death to captives of eternal Life in glorified bodies.
They walked in old Jerusalem and appeared to many who would become New Testament saints, and when Jesus was taken up in "so great a Cloud of witnesses," they cried as they approached the heavenly City, "Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, you everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in." This call was not to open the City gates, as they "shall be open continually," but to elevate their height consistent with the dignity of Jehovah Himself, who was about to enter as its new King in the form of Israel's glorified victorious Jesus Messiah.
Gates signify an entrance with praise and thanksgiving indicative of righteousness, thus they are a revelation. In ancient times gates of extraordinary size were built for men with extraordinary egos. Isaiah prophesied that the elect of the Gentiles should enter those everlasting gates in accordance with God's promise to Abraham, whose new name means "father of the Gentiles" (Psalm 9:14; 100:4; 118:19; Proverbs 31:31; Genesis 17:5; Isaiah 26:2; 60:11, 18; Revelation 21:24-27). Thus the cry, "Lift up your heads, O you gates" has essentially the same meaning as Isaiah 40:3, Malachi 3:1, and John 1:23, "Prepare the way of Jehovah, level a straight, smooth highway in the wilderness for our God."
"Who is this King of glory?" demanded the voice from within. "The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O gates; and be lifted up O everlasting doors that the King of glory may enter!"
"Who is this King of glory?" demanded the cherubim. "Jehovah, the self-existent Lord of hosts, manifest in Jesus Christ, the beginning of God creating Himself a part of creation, just thirty-three years ago. He is the King of glory!"
II Samuel 6:14, "And David danced before the Lord with all his might; and he was wearing the linen ephod of a priest". Perhaps he uttered the words of Psalm 24 with prophetic inspiration after beholding the Ark of the Lord's Presence passing through the gates of Jerusalem to the Sanctuary prepared for it. For he saw that same Ark which had led the people of Israel to victory from Mount Sinai through the wilderness, and across the river Jordan, whose waters fled at its presence, and had brought them into Canaan: and at the power of which, when it had compassed the city seven days, the walls of Jericho fell down—and before which the gods of the Philistines fell prostrate on the qround.
When David meditated on this triumphal progress of the Ark of God, a march continued for more than four centuries, from Sinai to Sion, he was caught up by Spirit into a vision of the glorious consummation foreshadowed by all these triumphs; namely, the triumph of our Lord Jesus Christ, whom he salutes as Lord of Hosts, over all the power of Satan, and His triumphal ascent into His capital city, Jerusalem that is above, which is the mother of all God's elect (Galatians 4:26).
David was a type of Christ, and the Ark represents the Body of His Church in which His Presence and power dwells (Ephesians 2:20-23). In the Spirit, David saw God's vindication of His Ark after it had been abandoned by Israel to their enemies as the nation rejected Joseph, another type of Christ, and all God's holy prophets (Matthew 23:33-35). And today the nominal Christians and their denominated churches have abandoned our Joseph and His Church to their enemies, and keep silence as we are falsely accused and hauled before magistrates. Notwithstanding, God is able of these Stones to raise up Children to fulfill His Promise to Abraham. nl458.htm
