Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Having rejected the Absolute of God's unchanging Word the once Christian world and is about to submit to the absolute rule of papal Rome in Lucifer's totalitarian one world government enforced at home and abroad by the US military.

The Lord placed man on the basis of free will, but with a long rope of grace pulling Him back to His Word. He punishes the sinner from moment to moment in his conscience, but so far as outward experience is concerned, causes him to learn the error of his way at first only in omens of the most gently threatening character by means of passing, dimly visible angels of warning so to speak. In this way He gives him great scope for personal reflection and for returning of his own free will, or else for completing of his own free will his experience of the ruin which lies on his path of bondage. But in this way the divine long-suffering is revealed, which gives the sinner time for repentance. The picture of this long-suffering of God is furnished by the three years of Christ's ministry. Then at the end of it's lingering the long-suffering steps into the history behind the divine wrath.

As we are on the cusp of the great and dreadful day of the Lord, if you would serve Him at all, you must serve Him now. Do not procrastinate and put off to tomorrow what should be done today, for your tomorrow may be too late. Whereas you yearn to hear the words, "Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things: enter into the joy of your Lord," you may find yourself as an unprofitable servant cast into outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

A Letter from a Palestinian Muslim to Santa

December 22, 2008 – Dear Mr. Santa,

This might be unusual request coming from someone who is a Muslim, but the fact I have few things on my mind.

Could you please swing by Palestine, and in particular to a place called Gaza this year. It is not too far from Bethlehem, the birthplace of Jesus, who is 'the reason for the season.' There are 1.5 million people who are starving there in Gaza and have been under siege from air, sea, and ground for almost three years. You may ask what is the reason for that/ Those people wanted to be free and independent just like us here in America.

Over 51% of the population is under the age of 15. Among those people are 3,000 solid Christians. Statistically speaking, there should be about 1,500 of their Christian children who will not be having a merry Christmas this year for lack of basic necessities to survive such as food, water, fuel, and medicine. Animals are in a worse shape than humans in Gaza. There is no grass or animal feeds. Parents and children alike are dying daily because they are unable to get medical attention inside or outside Gaza due to the blockade. The UN is no longer able to deliver food anymore because of border closings, and has also warned of impending human disaster.

The children of Gaza do not need toys or video games as they do in other parts of the 'Christian' world, so I suggest the following:

Baby formula.

Bottled water.

Candles.

Vitamin supplement. I heard many suffer from severe malnutrition.

Clothing and toiletry.

Batteries (all sizes).

Hearing aids for children.

Animal feeds. I heard that a local pet store here is having a great bargain, buy one get one free!

Meal Ready to Eat [MRE]. The same kind used by the military.

No need for desert, there is one inside the MRE package. However, if there is some ginger bread man on special, I recommend taking several boxes. I am sure the children will enjoy it and will talk about it for years to come.

Thank you in advance. Have a safe trip. May Allah [God in Arabic] be with you, and as you would say; Ho, ho, ho.

Rudd condemns Australia, on a Lie

December 16, 2008 – Craig Isherwood of the Citizens Electoral Council charged Prime Minister Rudd's emissions reduction target as condemning Australia to economic suicide, on the basis of the lie of man-made global warming. "I can tell you, most scientists know that a man-made climate disaster is absolute nonsense. Don't believe the lying mainstream media or Hollywood's 'climate porn'—this climate dictatorship is run by the same City of London/Wall Street bankers who caused the current global financial crisis.

"The fact is, global warming stopped a decade ago and this year has been much colder than most. Earlier this year, China had its coldest winter for a hundred years; Britain is now having its coldest start to winter since 1976. And here in Australia, Perth has just had its coldest November since 1971.

"The main players pushing this quack science are bankers, journalists and big business bosses—not scientists," he said. "Take for example Al Gore, whose angle is turning emissions trading into profits for the multibillion-dollar hedge fund he runs with former Goldman Sachs boss David Blood; mining tycoon Ross Garnaut, whose previous public contribution was the tariff report in the 1980s that destroyed Australia's manufacturing industries; climate change pin-up boy Warwick McKibbin, a board member of the Reserve Bank; and don't forget Britain's Lord Nicholas Stern, former chief economist and Senior Vice President of the World Bank.

Meanwhile, the thousands of scientists who are shouting from the rooftops opposing this global warming swindle are being largely blacked out of the news media. Read what some of Australia's leading scientists are saying.

"When it comes to light that the carbon scare was known to be bogus in 2008, the ALP is going to be regarded as criminally negligent or ideologically stupid for not having seen through it. And if the Liberals support the general thrust of their actions, they will be seen likewise" (Dr. David Evans, consultant to the Australian Greenhouse Office, 1999-2005).

"AGW (anthropogenic global warming) is a fiction and a very dangerous fiction" (William Kininmonth, head of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology's National Climate Centre (1986-1998), Australian delegate to the World Meteorological Organization's Commission for Climatology, 1982-1998).

"[There is] an atmosphere of intimidation if one expresses dissenting views or evidence. It is as if one is doing one's colleagues a great disservice in dissenting and perhaps derailing the gravy train. . . The global warming monopoly is seriously bad for science" (David Packham, former CSIRO principle research scientist, senior research fellow in a climate group at Monash University, and an officer in the Australian Bureau of Meteorology).

"It is my strong belief that CSIRO has passed its use-by date. The organisation that bears the name of CSIRO has very little in common with the organisation that I joined in 1971, one that produced so much of value for Australia during its first seven decades. . . As an example, consider the Garnaut Report [on global warming], possibly the longest economic suicide note in Australia's history. It is based on the dire predictions of CSIRO's modeling programs" (Dr. Art Raiche, former CSIRO Chief Research Scientist).

"I have yet to see credible proof of carbon dioxide driving climate change, yet alone man-made CO2 driving it. The atmospheric hot-spot is missing and the ice core data refute this. When will we collectively awake from this deceptive delusion . . . I contend that those professional scientists and advisors that are knowingly complicit in climate science fraud and all that is derived from it, will continue to be exposed by the science itself" (Dr. Guy LeBlanc Smith, retired CSIRO Principal Research Scientist).

"All those urging action to curb global warming need to take off the blinkers and give some thought to what we should do if we are facing global cooling instead. It will be difficult for people to face the truth when their reputations, careers, government grants or hopes for social change depend on global warming, but the fate of civilisation may be at stake" (Geophysicist Dr. Phil Chapman, an astronautical engineer and the first Australian to become a NASA astronaut).

"Many distinguished scientists refuse to participate in the IPCC process, and others have resigned from it, because in the end the advice that the panel provides to governments is political and not scientific" (Dr. Bob Carter, Paleoclimate scientist, James Cook University and former chairman of the earth science panel of the Australian Research Council).

"What terrifies me is the way the state governments in Australia with their emissions trading are contemplating using the superannuation funds to invest in carbon trading—they're going to lose their money!" (Emeritus Professor Lance Endersbee, former dean of engineering and pro-vice chancellor at Monash University. Full story: cecaust.com.au

Comment: The purpose of taxing the air we breathe is the de-industrialization of (once) developed nations and consequent divestment of underdeveloped nations, resulting in the destruction of the middle class, poverty, hunger, social breakdown, war and death in fulfilment of Revelation 6:8 and The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion whose policies are promoted by the Club of Rome, Council on Foreign Relations, Trilateral Commission, Hudson Institute, et al, and adopted by the United States, Australia, other colonies of 'the City of London' and members of their United Nations Organization.

The objective is massive global depopulation and a return to serfdom in Lucifer's totalitarian one world government.

UN Special Rapporteur decries Free Trade Harm to Agriculture

December 17, 2008 – Jean-Pierre Stroobants, United Nations special rapporteur on the right to food emphasizes that free trade in agricultural products threatens the already-precarious situation of tens of millions of small farmers and gives rise to 'hidden' social, environmental, and health costs. "It's not any more favorable for the consumer, faced with a strong rise in prices, than it is for the small producer to whom an ever-decreasing price is paid. On the other hand, the chain of distribution gets longer, which contributes to the enrichment of various intermediaries," the rapporteur explains.

Five hundred million producers in the world are forced to buy their seed and fertilizer from a dozen oligopolies and then to sell their production for a derisory price . . . negotiations begun in Doha in 2001 to make developing countries benefit from trade liberalization are not making any headway. Moreover, the accent put on international trade has strongly increased the agricultural world's fragmentation . . . "It favors the wealthiest 0.5 percent and marginalizes everyone else . . . the rise in imports . . . diabetes, cancer, and cardio-vascular illness epidemics under the influence of processed foods . . .

War Talk, Death of the Social, & Disappearing Children: A Lesson for Obama

December 16, 2008 – Under the Bush administration, the language of war has taken on a distinctly new register, more expansive in both its meaning and its consequences. War no longer needs to be ratified by Congress since it is now waged by various government agencies that escape the need for official approval. War has become a permanent condition adopted by a nation state that is largely defined by its repressive functions in response to its powerlessness to regulate corporate power, provide social investments for the populace and guarantee a measure of social freedom. This has been evident not only in the all-embracing militarization of public life that emerged under the combined power and control of neoliberal zealots, religious fanatics and far right-wing conservatives, but also in the destruction of a liberal democratic political order and a growing culture of surveillance, inequality and cynicism.

. . . In the Bush-Cheney view of terrorism, war is individualized as every citizen becomes a potential terrorist, who has to prove that he or she is not dangerous. Under the rubric of the every-present state of emergency and its government-induced media panics, war provides the moral imperative to collapse the "boundaries between innocent and guilty, between suspects and non-suspects." War provides the primary rhetorical tool for articulating a notion of the social as a community organized around shared fears rather than shared responsibilities and civic courage. War is now transformed into a slick, Hollywood spectacle designed to both glamorize a notion of hyper-masculinity fashioned in the conservative oil fields of Texas and fill public space with celebrations of ritualized militaristic posturing . . .

". . . at least 2,225 people are serving sentences of death in prison for crimes they committed under the age of 18." Even more disturbing is the fact that "73 children sentenced to die in prison are either 13 or 14 years old." Moreover, on any given day in the United States, 9,500 juveniles under the age of 18 are locked up in adult penal institutions." At the current time, 44 states and the District of Columbia can try 14-year-olds in the adult criminal system. . .

Flawed Assumptions on Credit Crisis: Critical Examination of US Policymakers

December 11, 2008 – US policymakers have implemented an unprecedented range of tools to fight the credit crisis. However, it appears that many of their assumptions regarding the nature of the crisis are not supported, or even flatly contradicted, by the available data. Many measures of lending have actually increased during the crisis and are even at record levels.

This report examines some key assumptions being made by leading US policymakers regarding the credit crisis. In particular, comments made by the two leading policymakers, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke, as well as the secretary of the US Treasury Department, Henry Paulson, are compared with publicly available data.

In many cases, it appears that these policymakers' assumptions regarding the credit crisis are incorrect. Far from seeing a tightening of credit, a number of measures show that credit has expanded, and Celent finds that the lending markets are in surprisingly good health. Data published (in most cases by the Federal Reserve itself) show that:

Overall lending by US banks is at a record high and has increased during the credit crisis.
Interbank lending is at record highs and has increased during the credit crisis.
Consumer credit is at record highs and has increased during the credit crisis.
Commercial paper markets are operating within their historical norms. Lending by banks to businesses is at record highs and has been growing rapidly.
Municipal bond markets are operating within their historical norms. Deposits at banks have shown a substantial increase since the start of the credit crisis . . .

The report says the money supply "has recently increased at a pace never seen before in US history" and could signal a pending bout of hyperinflation. It says the increase is "a staggering 74% in only 84 days" and explains, "Previously, this kind of jump would be seen over the course of a decade or more". . . Full story: celent.com

Moral: Always pay heed to Acts 17:11, Shylock's hand is quicker than your eye, and you do not want to be robbed blind like citizens of the USA.

The Case for Gold

December 20, 2008 – Gold is famously useless in almost everything except that it cannot be made, and is reliably difficult to find. Even now if all the gold ever produced on Earth were formed into a single cube its edge would be less than 20 metres—2 metres shorter than a tennis court. Annually mined production grows that cube by about 12 centimetres a year, and more than each year's production is used up by jewellers such that now 75% of that cube is fabricated in an art form worth several times its bullion value. Meanwhile after 15 years of consistent selling into private demand, central bank ownership is now down to about 20% of the world's gold.

That 20 metre cube of gold would weigh about 140,000 tonnes and each tonne is worth about 20,000,000 dollars. So all the gold in the world is currently valued at $2.8 trillion, which compares to a US public debt of $8.3 trillion, and an unreserved US generational debt of $44 trillion. By contrast the US has the biggest gold reserve in the world which at 8,000 tonnes is worth only $0.16 trillion, enough, were it all sold, to stop the deficits growing for about 12 weeks.

Comment: A good read, but not as important as reading God's Holy Bible through the eyes of Melchisedek. The image illustrates the worth of money as a result of hyperinflation in Hungary. How many would have been happy in this world, and blessed in the world to come, if they had not been rich (Ezekiel 7:19)?

Share International reveals Christmas Miracle

Los Angeles, December 12, 2008 – For years the world has been filled with miracles of all kinds. In April 1995 Time magazine devoted an eight-page spread to its cover story on miracles and concluded: "People are hungry for signs."

Look now for the biggest miracle of all. In the very near future a large, bright star will appear in the sky visible to all throughout the world—night and day.

Unbelievable? Fantasy? No, a simple fact. Around a week later, Maitreya, the World Teacher for all humanity, will begin his open emergence and—though not yet using the name Maitreya—will be interviewed on a major US television program. . . Full story: marketwatch.com

Comment: The LAST sign Jesus promised before the end of the Gentile dispensation declared three messengers would visit "as in the days of Lot." The world is in a Sodom condition—openly homosexual men and women sit in our parliaments, preside over our highest courts and pastor churches. But three messengers have visited: Billy Graham and Oral Roberts delivered a basic salvation message to the churches in Sodom, while William Branham, the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6 and Revelation 10:7 veiled the Logos and revealed Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever by the Messianic sign: "discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart" to those like Abraham—called out and separated from Sodom.

Pope bans Homosexuals from Ordination as Priests

December 17, 2008 – Pope Benedict XVI has given his approval to a new Vatican policy document that bans men with homosexual tendencies from being ordained as priests, reports Catholic World News. The policy statement is a direct result of the pope's concern about the pedophilia scandal in the church—especially in the US.

The new document, prepared by the Congregation for Catholic Education in response to a request made by the late Pope John Paul II in 1994, will be published soon . . .The text, approved by Benedict at the end of August, says that homosexual men should not be admitted to seminaries even if they are celibate, because their condition suggests a serious personality disorder that detracts from their ability to serve as ministers. . .

Russia to Raise Nuclear Missile Output Fourfold

December 24, 2008 – A senior government official in Moscow said the Russian military would commission 70 strategic missiles over the next three years, as part of a massive rearmament programme which will also include short-range missiles, 300 tanks, 14 warships and 50 planes . . .

Vladimir Putin on Monday urged cabinet officials to quickly allocate funds for new weapons and closely control the quality and pace of their production. Military experts said the construction of 70 long-range nuclear missiles in the next three years represented a Russian attempt to strengthen its bargaining position with Washington, in talks aimed at agreeing new nuclear weapons cuts when the current treaty in force, Start I, expires next December. . . Full story: guardian.co.uk

Comment: Mr. Putin's timing is quite Scriptural. The weapons will be needed in about four years or so to wipe Vatican City State and the United States from the face of the earth. Parting is such sweet sorrow.

Meanwhile papal timing is also prescient with a visit to Israel and Jordan planned for next May.

The Ramification of the Scotus Inaction

On December 5, 2008, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS), in conference, decided to address Donofrio vs Wells by not addressing it; by simply denying the writ of certiorari.

On December 12, 2008, the Supreme Court of the United States, in conference, decided to address Wrotnowski vs Bysiewicz, et al, by not addressing it; by simply denying the application to stay the election and denying the injunction disallowing the Electoral College to vote on December 15, 2008.

There are more lawsuits in the works; it is doubtful SCOTUS will give them a hearing either; choosing, instead, to simply side-step the issue without explanation or justification.

What are the ramifications of the SCOTUS refusal to address the issue of the eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to the office of president under Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution?

Edwin Vieira, a constitutional attorney, has written two very good articles on this subject:

In the Shadow of Nemesis
Obama Must Stand Up Now or Step Down

He has also been quoted in these articles on WorldNetDaily:

Eligibility Dispute Story Spreads
Imagine Guru: ‘Certification' of birth time, locations a fake

After reading these articles, one realizes, of course, that the ramifications will be far-reaching if SCOTUS continues to side-step this issue.

But let's look at this from another angle.

Barack Hussein Obama has provided us the avenue to do away with a government that is so far out of control that it's like a car careening down an ice-covered road. You know it's out of control; you know it's going to crash; it's just a matter of when and where.

How, you ask, has Barack Hussein Obama provided us this avenue?

Follow the reasoning here.

The Supreme Court (SCOTUS) is the judicial branch established by the US Constitution. Granted they are no longer the judicial branch but the legal arm of the statist regime, but that's a story for another time. Here, we shall stick to the intent of the US Constitution, as established and, at this time, still in force. On January 20, 2009, that may not be the case.

The U.S. Constitution requires all justices to take an oath to protect and defend the U.S. Constitution. In refusing to hear Donofrio vs Wells and Wrotnowski vs Bysiewicz, et al, challenging the eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to the office of president as required by Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution, SCOTUS has refused their charge to defend the US Constitution in the name of the people of the United States whom they serve. The sum result of their refusal is to declare the United States Constitution null and void. To repeat, the sum result of their refusal is to declare the United States Constitution null and void.

I want to thank "Borderraven" for the aforementioned. Right on!

The ramifications of SCOTUS declaring the US Constitution null and void are far-reaching. First and foremost; the United States of America no longer exists. As such,

The list is endless but you no doubt get the idea.

Just think of all the money the people will save by not having the US government stealing from them at every turn!

President Bush can turn out the lights as he leaves the White House for the last time on January 20, 2009. He can retire to his new living quarters where he can bow before the craven image of the Allah he believes is the same as God; read the Bible that he believes "is probably just a story"; and worship at the altar of evolution that he believes is just as viable an explanation of the creation of all we see about us as what the Bible tells us. We will be forever spared the prospect of another buffoon holding the executive power that Bush held for the last eight years and used to destroy and dismantle this country, executive order by executive order!

We wish him god-speed (the god of his choice, of course) as he starts his new life, hopefully in Cuba! A fitting place for a man who thought the U.S. Constitution was just a "g-d piece of paper." Of course, there will be no pension for any of the former commanders-in-thief who are still kicking! The same is true of retired Congress-critters!

All the federal office buildings, so prominent on the DC skyline, will stand empty and deserted; the statues and monuments, a constant reminder of a country that was once strong, vibrant, and free but that is no more.

The last joker off Capitol Hill, please turn out the lights!!!

Thank you, Barack Hussein Obama! You ran on a platform of "change," and change we got thanks to you, thanks to SCOTUS refusing to uphold their oaths of office, thereby doing themselves and their fellow federal servants out of a job.

And to think the estimated 67,000,000 million people who voted for you had no idea, when they voted for you, just what kind of "change" they were going to bring about!

Yes we can . . . oh, yes, we can . . .

"Free at last, free at last, Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!!!!" . . . Martin Luther King

Let's celebrate!

The Image of the Beast

The future outlook for US citizens and "dissidents" worldwide at the bloodied hands of the US military foretold in the Books of Daniel and in Revelation 13:11-18 is dire. Jesus described a wild, untamable beast signified by the American buffalo. It had two horns like a lamb, signifying the separation of church and state powers and impersonated the nature of a lamb, but it spoke like the Dragon—Satan incarnate in the beast of Rome (Revelation 2:13; 12:3-17; 13:2-4; 16:13; 20:2). This was the United States that rose in the relatively unpopulated continent of North America and was given the full authority of Imperial Rome by permission of Papal Rome, whose religious system it requires the world to worship.

The United States performed great wonders like raining atomic fire upon Hiroshima and Nagasaki in sight of men. These miracles condoned by Rome enabled the US to deceive the whole earth as to the invincibility of its power, bidding them to transform it into an image of Imperial Rome to enforce universal peace and democracy. And it was authorised to kill all who do not render subservient obedience.

Under Rome's new world order the US military will enforce Americans and people of all nations to absolute obedience to her commands, and/or adoption of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic doctrine on pain of death as they have enforced subservience upon Germany, Japan, the Balkans, Middle East and many other regions, sometimes by the establishment of installations such as Pine Gap, which they would never return to Australian sovereignty. 6,000 military bases or military warehouses are located in the US and the surface of the Earth is structured as a wide battlefield with between seven and eight hundred US military bases. Confronted by Satan's end-game, the Lord God sent His people warning with a Supernatural way of escape per medium of Brother Branham's Message by which many are called but few chosen.

Israel is a type of the Church. It traveled from pagan Babylon in the East, to the Promised Land in the West where the people could worship and serve God in freedom. In Deuteronomy 28, Moses declared the blessings of obedience to God's commands, and prophesied the curses of disobedience, including the "times of the Gentiles" under the power of Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome—from Nebuchadnezzar's invasion of Jerusalem to the consummation of life on earth under the rule of Papal Rome and her Babylonian religion (Daniel 9:27).

Moses prophesied "The Lord will bring you, and your king, whom you will set over you [after you reject the theocracy under the judges – I Samuel 8:1-9], to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known; and there you will serve other gods, wood and stone" (Jeremiah 44:17-19). This was accomplished in the apostasy that led to the dissolution of the Northern kingdom by the Assyrians and the Babylonian captivity and subjugation of the Southern kingdom. The kingdom will not be restored to Israel until the millennium (Isaiah 66:8; Acts 1:6-8).

I hear you say, but Israel was restored in 1948. The state was restored, but its inhabitants are Jews who call themselves Israelis; they are not Israelites of the pure stock of Abraham, Isaac and Israel.

Moses prophesied Rome's invasion of Judea, "The Lord will bring against you a nation from far . . ." Rome's legions were taken from France, Spain, and Britain—then considered "the end of the earth." Julius Severus, the commander before Vespasian and Hadrian, left Britain for the scene of contest. "A nation of fierce countenance . . ." was a just description of the Romans, who were not only bold and unyielding, but ruthless and implacable, showing neither compassion for the old nor mercy to the young. "He shall lay siege to all your cities, until your high and fortified walls, in which you put your trust, come down throughout the Land. . ." Even Jerusalem and its temple were razed to the ground. "And you shall eat the fruit of your own bosom, the flesh of your sons and daughters . . ." (II Kings 6:29; Lamentations 4:10). Parental affection was extinguished, and the nearest relatives jealously avoided, lest they should discover and demand a share of the revolting viands.

Moses foretold Israel will be dispersed and become "few in numbers" ultimately 144,000 as Jesus foretold in Revelation 7. Eventually, Hadrian "plucked [the Judahites] from off the land," and today, "for fear of the Jews," the twelve tribes will not return in any number until Daniel's Seventieth Week (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11; 27:13; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:8; 31:8; Ezekiel 39:27; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:8; Matthew 24:31, etc). "The Lord will bring you back to Egypt in ships . . . and there you will offer yourselves to your enemies as male and female slaves, but no one will even want to buy you." According to Josephus, this prophecy was fulfilled under Titus.

I am reminded of the words of that magnificent twelfth century Latin hymn translated into English by John Mason Neale (1818-1866):

O come, O come, Emmanuel,
and ransom captive Israel,
that mourns in lonely exile here
until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.

Still today, the Israelites remain in mournful exile from the Promised Land which is physically governed by Jewry and Rome, and spiritually enslaved by the Babylonian Talmud.

Spiritual Israel, the Church, has traveled from Spiritual captivity and persecution under Babylonian Pharisaism in the East to freedom in the West, under the constant pursuit of Rome in alliance with the Pharisees, or their Judaeo-Roman Catholic church, and in more recent times, Judaeo-Communism. All of this evil has wound up on the West Coast of the dis-United States, once heralded as "the Land of the Free," soon to become the image unto the beast of Imperial Rome in the natural or political sphere as the (once) Protestant denominations will become the image to the beast of Papal Rome. Church and state will shortly be reunited, then this reconstituted "holy Roman Empire" will kill all who do not worship her trinity of gods or otherwise do her service (Revelation 13:15-18). The image unto the beast has been practicing its killing for many years in defenseless foreign nations, and is now preparing to militarize her people at home.

Daniel 8:23 prophesied, that in the apostasy at the end of the Gentile dispensation "when the transgressors have reached the extremity of wickedness (Luke 18:8, II Timothy 3:1-9), a king of fierce countenance (Deuteronomy 28:50), who will spare neither old nor young, and understanding conspiracies, shall rise to power." There had to be a pharaoh from the new Edomite dynasty ruling Egypt, a pharaoh who knew not Joseph nor the grace, and wisdom and power of his God, and "the iniquity of the Amorites had to be full" before God could deliver natural Israel "with a strong hand" and confiscate the lands of these Serpent's seed people. Only under such conditions can He deliver Spiritual Israel to the eternal land of the Millennium and turn His hand to an election of the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel. At the end of January it appears the USA will no longer be a nation, but ruled by another Edomite, a dictator "skilled in intrigues," a pharaoh who knows not Joseph. Then the guilt of Jewry, too, shall be full and they who killed Christ will receive Antichrist according to prophecy. John 5:43, "I have come in My Father's Name, and you receive Me not; if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive" (Genesis 15:16; Matthew 23:32; I Thessalonians 2:16).

Daniel is referring to the papal king of a revived Holy Roman Empire. "His power shall be mighty; not by force of arms but by the power of Satan incarnate. A master of deception, treachery will prosper in his hand, and by pretending "peace" and amity the ten kingdoms into which Imperial Rome divided will give their power to the beast (II Thessalonians 2:9-12; Revelation 17:13). But with hubris he will rise up even against the Prince of princes at the dedication of the new temple in Jerusalem, and abrogating his agreement without warning he will destroy many unsuspecting Jews (Daniel 8:12; 9:27; Revelation 13:2-8), martyr Israel's two prophets (Zechariah 4; Revelation 11), the 144,000 elect Israelites, foolish virgin and others who refuse the mark of the beast, but he shall be broken without human hand (Daniel 2:34).

Daniel was commanded to "seal up the vision" but "in the days of the Voice of the seventh angel, the mystery of God spoken by the mouth of all God's holy prophets since the world began, should be finished," and we are commanded, "Seal not the vision, for the time is at hand" for the Bride must make herself ready to step out of the way in the translation so these prophecies may be fulfilled (Revelation 22:10; 10:7).

Like natural Israel before us, the denominational church system of nominally spiritual Israel has apostatized and returned to Babylonian captivity with the Pharisees (Romans 11:32). And for not supporting their militia as provided by the Constitution in order to withstand tyrants, America's disunited states will soon find themselves bound involuntarily as occupied territory of the unconstitutional USSA under the dictatorship of a defunct country that has deployed its own military against those who were once her citizens.

In any event, on March 27, 1969, President Nixon divided the country into ten regions via the Government Reorganization Act, and into ten administrative regions on February 14, 1972 under Executive Order 11647, (Federal Register February 12, 1972, Vol. 37, No. 30), which also established the Federal Regional Council for the newly designed regions in obedience to a United Nations resolution. (Australia and at around the same time your own country was doubtless divided into regions whose boundaries do not follow or recognize states' borders).

The District of Columbia, like Vatican City and the City of London, is a sovereign (alien) nation, whose Potomac River was once called the Tiber as Washington city was "New Rome." By regionalization it has overridden the states and potentially abrogated the federation, negating the Senate or states' House and laying a foundation for dictatorship which centralizes power in "New Rome." Centralization or collectivism is Communism. Jesus called the last Church Age Laodicea, which means "people's rights," or Communism.

In Israel, the nation's sins accumulated in the sanctuary or 'naos' in the West of the temple, which was cleansed once a year on the Day of Atonement pending the Coming of Adam's kinsman Redeemer. Jesus Messiah did not temporarily cover sins but cleansed even the heavenly tabernacle of the accumulated sins of millennia, and remitted them forever. So under the new Covenant, we "draw near to God [right in the Holy of Holies] with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water" (Hebrews 10:22).

Since Calvary the Lord does not meet His elect Church as a nation in a temple or in a particular land, for the whole Earth is His a sanctuary so long as it is under the Blood of the Lamb. That is, so long as Christ's Bride in on earth the Token is on display as once it was painted on the lintels of the doors in Goshen, and "when I see the Blood I will pass over you": not one hair of your head will be harmed (Exodus 12:13). You are the Blood of Christ by the baptism with the Holy Spirit, because the Life is in the Blood, and the same Spirit and Life that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you and will quicken your mortal Body to His Word (Romans 8:11). The Holy Spirit will depart Earth in the resurrection and translation of Christ's Bride, and Earth ,which because of your presence is a mercy seat, will become His judgment seat (II Thessalonians 2:6).

The Gospel has traveled around the world from Jerusalem in the East to the West Coast of the United States where the Pentecostal Revival began in 1906 in Azusa Street, Los Angeles. Movie film developed shortly thereafter but the new industry was taken over by Jews, Los Angeles was overcome by the filth of Hollywood and began exporting immorality, subverting souls around the globe. According to the type, the sins of two millennia of sinners have accumulated on the West Coast, and before the Gospel can return to Israel to call the 144,000 elect Israelites, there must be another cleansing of the heavenly sanctuary to receive the saints of the first resurrection, casting Satan down to Earth incarnate in "that man of sin, the son of perdition." The sin and filth of Los Angeles will be cast as a great millstone with violence into the Pacific, and along with 1,500x300-400 miles of Earth's crust it will be found no more (Revelation 18:21-24).

At that instant the Gentile dispensation will end. The Pacific ring of fire will erupt, lunar volcanoes will turn the Moon to blood, tidal waves will sweep the world, and the Mount of Olives will cleave, igniting the "hot stage" of World War III. Millions will perish around the globe; US dollar will fail, and after three days the first resurrection and the manifestation of the Sons of God will commence.

After the translation of the living Bride, Russia will attack and successfully invade mainland United States. The then Devil-incarnate pope will have those occupying forces sent home and restore peace. On his assurance of establishing universal peace and amity the Holy Roman Empire will be restored and Lucifer incarnate will be made president of the totalitarian one world government for which he has worked for six thousand years (Daniel 8:23-25; Revelation 13:4-9; 17:11-14).

Having sent the Russians home the beast will gather power to himself by uniting the world against Communism. He will refinance the US dollar with gold backing, and the US military—the nation's only asset—will enforce Rome's edicts, as the (once) Protestant churches will proselytize her religious doctrine, throughout the world, wherefore Jesus calls them the image unto the beast. nl559.htm
