Throughout his ministry Brother Branham condemned America as representative of the Western (once) Christian world, for the increasingly immoral and ungodly attitudes and behavior of her people. He called her "the prostitute of the nations" as she has polluted the world with her filth. Christendom is apostate, having rejected grace and put Christ to an open shame outside the churches that bear His Name, and is returning to the yoke of Babylonian law under Rome and the Talmud. Our once Christian nations having become spiritual Serpent's seed are now hopelessly indebted to the physical Serpent's seed usurers and enmity against God. Whereas the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel was our strength and fortress, we now honour the god of forces, so that in fiscal 2011 total US military spending will exceed that of all other nations combined (Psalm 18:2; Daniel 11:38).
Sleight-of-hand credit created out of thin air, satanic technology and the military "grunt" of the City of London's colonial troopers is now the strength and stay of apostate Christendom. The mammonite Enemy of God and man rules both sides of the Hegelian dialectic as Israel Cohen wrote: "We must realize that our party's most powerful weapon is racial tension. By propounding into the consciousness of the dark races that for centuries they have been oppressed by the whites, we can mould them to the program of the Communist Party. In America we will aim for subtle victory. While inflaming the Negro minority against the whites we will endeavor to install in the whites a guilt complex for their exploitation of the Negroes. We will aid the Negroes to rise in prominence in every walk of life, in the professions and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige, the Negro will be able to intermarry with the whites and begin a process which will deliver America to our cause" (A Racial Program for the 20th Century, 1912, quoted by Congressman Abernathy in the Congressional Record, 1957, p. 8559. See: The First Time I heard of Barack and Matthew 24:37).
Brother Branham was not alone in observing America's backsliding. Israel's war criminal Prime Minister Ariel Sharon boasted "We Jews control America, and they know it." The late Brother David Meyer's Last Trumpet Newsletter concurred.
In 1944 Julius Streicher noted: "The influence of the Jewish spirit" today dominates the United States of North America. "The influence of the Jewish spirit" is what drove the American people into the disaster of the First World War, and forced them again in this Second World War to sacrifice enormous amounts of its blood. "The influence of the Jewish spirit" will destroy the New World, unless a Savior appears to rescue it from the abyss before which it stands.
The common sense truth of these statements confirm Brother Branham's prophecy, "the world is going insane," and the treacheries of the enemy within are legion. The sinking of the SS Lusitania, Pearl Harbour, the attack on the USS Liberty, the Waco and Port Arthur massacres, bombings at Bali, Oklahoma, and the WTC, the missile attack on the Pentagon, the fraudulent War on Terror, 7/7, Homeland Security, Hurricane Katrina, tsunamis, vaccinations for man-made diseases, the BP Gulf gusher, and earthquakes. Preparations for FEMA's exercise in May on the bicentennial anniversary of the 1811 New Madrid earthquake match the pattern of black ops executed by 'the City of London' that controls America and the (once) Christian West, and would rule Lucifer's totalitarian one world government.
Our main article, Covenant Sacrifice and the People of God is an update on Newsletter 258 revealing the people of God as His elect whose lives are written epistles of the Word for their day. It examines the prophetic significance of Matthew 4:1-11 and the time and types of the first resurrection. Next week we will continue The Mark of the Beast.
This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Is the New Madrid Fault Earthquake Zone coming to Life?
January 4, 2011 — Jack M. Reed, a retired Texaco geologist-geophysicist, has been carefully studying the geology of the Gulf of Mexico for over 40 years. Reed is convinced that the Gulf of Mexico is currently tectonically active, and that the Gulf of Mexico is the source for most seismic activity along the New Madrid fault.
According to Reed, there is substantial evidence that the New Madrid fault zone is directly connected to 'deeply buried tectonics' in the Gulf of Mexico. . . So did BP disturb those 'deeply buried tectonics' by drilling such a deep well and unleashing all that oil that flowed into the Gulf of Mexico? . . . Full story: prisonplanet.com
Comment: We have reported on the New Madrid fault since 2002. Brother Branham said: "The world is falling apart. Fifteen hundred mile chunk of it, three or four hundred miles wide, will sink hundred or maybe forty miles down into that great fault out yonder one of these days, and waves will shoot plumb out to the state of Kentucky. . ." (William Branham, A Thinking Man's Filter, p. 25:145). Presumably the New Madrid Fault Line parallel to the Mississippi River will become active at this time, dumping waters from the Great Lakes or causing the Mississippi River to run backwards as it did in 1811 and 1812.
'Israeli Spying Network' uncovered in Egypt Days before Church Blast
January 1, 2011 — on the first day of the new year of 2011, after the deadly church blast in Alexandria, most Egyptians are growing more aware of the Israeli conspiracy targeting their national unity. People in Egypt don't have to waste their time suspecting and accusing al Qaeda, . . . Egyptians know better, . . . they know that al Qaeda is a joke, . . . they only point the finger at Israel, the one implacable enemy who happened to be the conspirator behind destabilizing Iraq and the whole region.
The Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty never changed anything. Israel is still seen as the enemy in the eyes and mind of every Egyptian. Israel is clearly seen by most Arabs as the evil doer in the Middle East. Full story: veteranstoday.com
Peres wants to hand over Christian Sites in Israel to Vatican
April 5, 2009 — President Shimon Peres is urging the government to yield control of key Christian holy sites to the Vatican . . . The Vatican's longstanding demand that Israel transfer sovereignty of key Christian sites to the control of the Holy See has created dissension among senior officials in Jerusalem. . . Peres is pressing the government to agree to the Vatican's request that Israel surrender control of six religious sites, among them the Church of the Annunciation in Nazareth; the Coenaculum on Mount Zion in Jerusalem, where Jesus is said to have held The Last Supper; Gethsemane, which sits at the foot of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem; Mount Tabor; and the Church of the Multiplication, which hugs the shoreline of the Sea of Galilee. . .

Comment: Correspondent Barry Chamish claims the recent sacking of Israeli President Katsav and his conviction for rape, like the resignation of former President Ezer Weizmann, was orchestrated by current President, Jesuit-educated Shimon Peres, because they stood in the way of the handover of what will be the NWO capital to Rome. He recalls Mr. Peres, when director of the Israeli Atomic Energy Commission irradiated all Sephardic children in a ghastly nuclear experiment, and how thirty minutes after Peres had a private meeting with Sharon in the Knesset, on December 18, 2005, during which they shared tea, Sharon had a stroke and was taken to the hospital by the bodyguard Yoram Rubin, who murdered Yitzhak Rabin. In his DVD Who Murdered Rabin Chamish shows that President Peres was behind this assassination.
According to his informant, "Peres promised the pope East Jerusalem in May of 1992 and the Vatican wants to cash in now. But Sharon wasn't playing ball. In July of last year he actually banned diplomacy with the Vatican. So the Vatican tried working around him. In September they invited both Israeli chief rabbis to Rome to threaten the Jews if the holy sites of Jerusalem weren't handed over to them. In November, they hatched the Mount Zion plot, trading a Spanish church for the Last Supper room. President Katsav flew to the Vatican but Sharon still said no."
"Finally they knew Sharon had to go. Enter the apostolic nuncio Pietro Sambi. He plotted with Peres to finish Sharon and possibly supplied the poison Sharon drank in his final meeting with Peres on December 18. One thing is certain, 18 hours before, after 8 1/2 years in Jerusalem, Sambi flew out for a new assignment in Washington."
"Once Olmert and Peres won the election, Peres flew to the Vatican taking with him a letter from Olmert to the pope. No one will say what was in the letter, but you can be sure he promised the pope 'his land' and the war drastic enough to give it to him" (youtube.com).
Kevin K?ther's Questions that caused Berlin District Court to drop His Case
January 1, 2011 — Kevin K?ther's most recent self-accusation trial began before Berlin District Court on 25 October 2010. . . Kevin had originally mailed CDs of Germar Rudolf's "Lectures on the Holocaust" to the Berlin Attorney General, Lea Rosh, Professor Wolfgang Benz and Professor Ernst Nolte. Under the provisions of Section 130 of the German Penal Code he then filed charges against himself, accusing himself of VOLKSVERHETZUNG (Incitement of the Masses) in order to compel a WAHRHEITSERHEBUNG (judicial truth ascertainment) of the official "Holocaust" narrative. . .
Kevin, who has doubts about the veracity of the official "Holocaust" narrative, welcomed an opportunity to be educated by the facts and the arguments of such an officially acknowledged "Holocaust" expert as Prof. Wolfgang Benz, who was summoned as a witness. He welcomed the opportunity to be convinced that six million Jews had really been gassed under Hitler and that he, Kevin K?ther, was in fact suffering under misapprehensions. And he hoped for enlightenment from Professor Ernst Nolte as well. . . the Inquisitorial Court of the so-called Federal Republic of Germany preferred to discontinue a "Holocaust-denial-trial" rather than expose its experts to the questions of a heretical Revisionist intent on enlightening himself! . . . Questions for Witnesses Ernst Nolte and Wolfgang Benz from K?ther's Evidentiary Motion . . .

Banks found Guilty of Foreclosure Fraud
December 28, 2010 — As a result of the recent investigation launched by the Florida Attorney General's office, Bank of America, GMAC Bank, JP Morgan Chase, and others, have all been found guilty of foreclosure fraud. Depositions by the banks' employees revealed that the banks have been forging, falsifying, and fabricating documents in order to foreclose on millions of homes owned by unsuspecting American homeowners.
Additionally, Wells Fargo Bank has admitted to 55,000 counts of perjury in submitting false affidavits to the courts in its efforts to fraudulently foreclose on homeowners. To add to this disgusting, and arrogant display of lawlessness by the banks, nothing has been done by the Justice Department, or any other federal officials in the way of civil or criminal charges against the banks, until now. . .

AFRICOM Unmasked, Unwanted and Vulnerable
January 5, 2011 — When the Bush Administration created US Africa Command (AFRICOM) to protect America's oil and strategic interests, the door was slammed in its face by every African country except Liberia. Fortunately, AFRICOM never accepted Liberia's offer to establish headquarters there, and the military command has by default made its home in Stuttgart, Germany. Although AFRICOM has hinted that it may renew its efforts to establish its base in Africa, the Washington Post quoted a member of AFRICOM's advisory board as saying the chances that this will actually happen are very low. He said: 'I would personally put it at between slim and none.' There is no mystery about why. The Post article quoted Morocco's director of intelligence as saying: "The African countries looked at [AFRICOM] as a threat. It was made very clear that no one wanted the presence of any foreign military, especially the US, anywhere in Africa".
Africa's continuing commitment to stand firm against an AFRICOM headquarters on the continent is an under-appreciated victory. If Africa has not learned from this experience that imperialism can be defeated to some degree simply through non-cooperation, it should. That lesson has certainly not been missed by others. . .

The Evils of Multiculturalism
"Now the east and the west have come together, and civilization has clashed together, and it's brought in one of the most ridiculous, uncivilized conditions that the world has ever seen or dreamed of. . . I am trying to . . . warn the people, constantly, that we are at the end time."
"What can we do? There is no hope in anything no more, only in Christ. Just remember that. Christ is the only Stay we have. Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Noah" (William Branham, He Careth for You, p. 3:16-17).
"The Jewish people as a whole will become its own Messiah. It will attain world dominion by the dissolution of other races, by the abolition of frontiers, the annihilation of monarchy and by the establishment of a world republic in which the Jews will everywhere exercise the privilege of citizenship. In this New World Order the [alleged] "children of Israel" will furnish all the leaders without encountering opposition. The Governments of the different peoples forming the world republic will fall without difficulty into the hands of the Jews. It will then be possible for the Jewish rulers to abolish private property and everywhere to make use of the resources of the state. Thus will the promise of the Talmud be fulfilled, in which is said that when the Messianic time is come, the Jews will have all the property of the whole world in their hands" (Baruch Levy, Letter to Karl Marx, 'La Revue de Paris,' p. 574, June 1, 1928).
Comment: God's Word strictly forbids us to permit the Serpent's seed to purchase or take residence in Christian lands lest we intermarry and emulate their pagan worship, sodomy, rape, adultery, drugs, violence, robbery, murder, usury, horoscopes, magic arts, sorcery, fortune-telling, etc., (Deuteronomy 7; Amos 3:3; Nehemiah 9:2; II Corinthians 6:14-18).
Covenant Sacrifice and the People of God
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. You shall know them by their fruits"—whether they are teaching the present Truth, or only quoting the letter of the Message without the faith (Matthew 7:15-16).
"The thief comes to seek and devour and destroy, but I am come that you may have eternal Life, and have it more abundantly" (John 10:10).
God made His covenant with Abraham in recognition of his faith to the intent that his seed should obey His statutes and be blessed, thereby drawing all the Adamic nations to Him and making Abraham "the father of the Gentiles" as his new name implies (Genesis 17:5). However, Abraham's natural seed has become "a sinful nation, a people bent-backed beneath their load of iniquity. Their parents were evildoers too. Born to be evil, they have forsaken the Lord, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they have become utterly estranged" (Isaiah 1:4).
At the very threshold of the Mosaic dispensation stands the sacrifice of a Pascal lamb connected with the redemption of Israel, which is in many respects typical and anticipatory of all the other sacrifices. But there was one sacrifice that even under the Old Testament required no renewal. And this was when God had entered into Covenant relationship with Israel and Israel became the "people of God." Then Moses sprinkled "the blood of the Covenant" on the altar and on the people (Exodus 24:1-9), yet the privileges of the Mosaic covenant were conditional to obedience. It was a Covenant the nation abrogated weeks before God had completed communing with Moses on Mount Sinai.
Israel never obeyed God's Law but devised 'loopholes' to justify sin, and to persecute and kill His prophets. Haughty and overtaken with hubris, instead of shining God's Light to us Gentiles, we were despised while they became the children of darkness by marrying into Cain's accursed seed. "They are not all Israel, which are of Israel" (Romans 9:6).
One seed, Abraham's faith Seed Jesus Christ, humbled Himself unto death to fulfill God's Word, prophesying, "I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men [of Adam's race] unto Me." Israel "lifted Him up" on Calvary's cruel cross and then God raised Him from the dead to justify Adam and all of his seed who have the faith of Abraham.
The first Adam and father of Shem was the manifested spoken Word of God, yet without one drop of Semitic blood. The last Adam redeemed the first and whosoever of the blood of Shem, Ham, and Japheth would receive salvation through His blood. He was also God's manifested spoken Word without one drop of Semitic blood.
Jesus Christ is Abraham's promised Seed (singular) who possesses the Birthright and all Covenant blessings. The promises and blessings of God all belong to this Royal Seed who redeemed Adam, Abraham and potentially all of their seed from the curse of Moses' Law of Mount Sinai. Since the day of Pentecost 2,000 years ago, Abraham's seed is every soul in Adam's race who is born of Jesus Christ whether from the lineage of Shem, Ham, or Japheth (Romans 4:1-17; Galatians 3:7-29).
In Deuteronomy 4:25-40, Moses prophesied backsliding Israel would not live long in the Promised Land because God would scatter them among the surrounding nations owing to their persistent apostasy. He gave them His Word, but no image of Himself that they might "walk by faith, not by sight" as He is without form (II Corinthians 5:7), but having rejected faith in His Attributes Israel will "serve idols [they can see], the work of men's hands" (Jeremiah 44) until she is gathered back into the Land of the Covenant during the tribulation "in the latter days" (Deuteronomy 4:30; 31:29; Genesis 49; Hosea 3:5; Isaiah 2:2). God cannot deal with Israel so long as she is dispersed for the Covenant is of no effect outside the land. In this time of completion 144,000 "who seek the Lord with all their heart and all their soul will find Him" in the sabbath of the blessing of Abraham and the millennium. The curse of the Law will be completed and God will remember the Covenant which He swore to their fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. This prophecy foreshadows Daniel's Seventieth Week after the close of our dispensation and the ministry of the two Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11 reconfirming the unconditional covenant. This prophecy proves there is nothing to British Israel theory.
Israel violated her solemn oath to God and although she will be chastised under the seven Trumpet judgments until the consummation, He has not forgotten His oath to the fathers. When the fullness of the Gentiles has come in He will reveal Himself to Israel—not Jews in New York, London, or Warsaw—but blood Israelites in Zion, and "turn away ungodliness from Jacob" (Daniel 9:24, 27; Romans 11:25-32). Any Israelite living outside the Promised Land is outside God's Covenant with the fathers.
God is no respecter of persons: "the soul that sins will surely die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son . . . but if the wicked will turn from all of his past sins, and keep all of My statutes, and do what is lawful and right, he shall live and not die. None of his transgressions shall be mentioned: in the righteousness he has done he shall live" (Ezekiel 18:20-21; Psalm 50:15-23).
We are dealing here with two Covenants. One is to Abraham, his promised Seed Jesus Christ and His Spiritual offspring from all Adamic nations; the other is to Abraham's natural seed of the blood of Isaac and Jacob living in the land of the Covenant. Because of Israel's sin God commanded Moses to bring it under the curse of the Law (Romans 3:20; 5:20; 8:2; Galatians 3:19) but "the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has set us free from the Law of sin and death . . . that the righteousness of the Law might be fulfilled in us who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit." And out of love and respect for "the fathers," Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, God will honor His oath in a faithful remnant of Israel in Daniel's Seventieth Week.
The Abrahamic predates and encompasses the Mosaic Covenant and includes every soul in Adam's race born the second time through Jesus Messiah (Genesis 17:1-8; Exodus 6:1-8; Isaiah 59:20-21) so every non-Semitic self-styled "Jew" of Adam's race who rejects the "blessing of Abraham" in Messiah during his Gentile dispensation, leaves himself bereft, being unrelated to "the fathers" by blood and certainly not by faith. Statisticians and historians establish that the vast majority of Jews are either Gentiles who have squandered their time of redemption over the past 2,000 years in which they have impersonated Israel, or physical Serpent's seed whose names were not in the Book of Life as they are not related to the first Adam and without redemption since the last Adam is not their kinsman Redeemer (Genesis 3:15).
Those who are not in Adam's race have no redemption as the life is in the blood and the Life of Christ was released by the Covenant sacrifice so His Bride is the Blood of Christ by the baptism of the Holy Ghost.
Aside from the Passover lamb, Israel's sacrifices all rested on the covenant sacrifice on Mount Sinai (Psalm 50:5). These were either sacrifices of communion with God, or were intended to restore communion that had been disturbed or dimmed through sin and trespass.
The sacrifices in communion with God were the burnt and the peace offerings, while sin and the trespass offerings were offered for communion with God. However "without the shedding of blood there is no remission of sin" (Hebrews 9:22), so every service and every worshiper had to be purified by blood as evidence of an innocent life substituted for their guilty life with the mediatorial agency of the priesthood to bring them near to God and to convey the assurance of acceptance.
God deals with Israel as a nation; one more reason why any Hebrew claiming the Mosaic Covenant while living outside the Promised Land is a hypocrite outside the Covenant he claims. God deals with us Gentiles as individuals. Israel has been without God since it rejected the Holy Spirit and murdered Messiah (Psalm 50:20), and since the destruction of the Temple in AD70, without even the ritual shadow of substitutionary sacrifices and the intercession of a priesthood which, prior to Calvary, could restore lost communion. According to the Psalmist, God will gather elect blood Israelites to whom the covenant pertains, not "Jews," and reprove them for 2,000 years of spiritual blindness in not recognizing that these sacrifices were merely a type of Messiah's atoning Work, and for their carnal attitude to these animal sacrifices they imprudently felt they were 'giving' to God rather than acknowledging His gifts of sacrifice with thanksgiving, and honoring their vows to Him. The victim once offered, belonged to God, hence they who feasted upon it were guests of the Lord.
Psalm 50:22-23, "This is your final opportunity before I tear asunder you Israelites who have forgotten God—and no one can help you then. True praise is a worthy sacrifice that honors Me. Those who walk in My ways will receive the salvation of God".
Many fine folk within the circle of this end-time Message are misled by Judaising wolves in Christian clothing; blind pastors quote the prophetic letter but their fruits are not the revelation of Its Message. Israel's priests and Levites, Scribes and Pharisees quoted the letter that foretold Christ's first advent, but without the Spirit they led Israel to crucify Him. Some ministers trade on their personal association with God's Prophet yet seventy-one of the original apostles chosen and ordained by Jesus Christ Himself were spiritually blind; and Judas, their trusted associate and treasurer, betrayed Him to death. Well did Paul state, "Henceforth know we no man after the flesh! Stop evaluating men by their reputation among others in the church, or by outside appearances. Although once we mistakenly thought of Jesus Christ in that way, yet henceforth we no longer know Him according to the flesh" (II Corinthians 5:16).
The only significance the nation of Israel has for Christians is as a signpost, for it is God's timepiece by which we can gauge the nearness of the end of the Gentile dispensation and Daniel's Seventieth Week. And broadly speaking, the only significance of "Jews" and Judaism to we Christians is the prudence of identifying those who are our declared enemies: these are not of "the fathers" or the Book; neither is their religion of "the fathers" or of the Book. Reading their writings and the Book (Genesis 27:39-41; Matthew 15:9) we see they are sworn enemies of Israel and all Hebrews, of Moses and all the prophets, of God and Adam's entire race and that the curse is upon any Message minister who would promote their anti-Semitic evil and welcome their apostates behind his sacred desk. Thus saith William Branham—and the Lord!
To illustrate this point I will quote from an article by the Temple Mount Faithful (sic) which deluded souls imprisoned now in denominational walled cities within the circle of this Message will swallow hook, line and sinker, because they have the letter without the Spirit, since they refuse to "search the Scriptures daily . . . and prove all things".
January 12, 2003—During his recent visit to Italy, President of Israel, Moshe Katzav, [later dismissed and sentenced to seven years in prison and two years probation for two charges of rape, indecent acts, sexual harassment and obstruction of justice], asked the Prime Minister of the Vatican, Cardinal Angelo Sudano, to prepare a list of all the Temple treasures, vessels and Judaica that are being held by the Vatican. . . . The major importance of this request is the fact that the Vatican holds the Temple Menorah of pure gold which, together with other holy vessels from the temple, was stolen by the Romans and taken to Rome in 70 CE.
After the destruction of the Temple and the Israeli kingdom, the Roman emperor, Titus, who destroyed the temple, built a triumphal arch in Rome which portrayed the Menorah and other vessels from the Temple in Jerusalem. The arch shows Israel captives carrying the Menorah and the vessels in Rome. The fact that the Menorah and the holy vessels were taken to Rome and later, when the Roman Empire became Christian, the Menorah and the vessels were placed in the basement of the Vatican, has passed down from generation to generation of the Jewish people. During the exile the holy Menorah and the vessels remained at the focus of the memory of the Jewish people. Their dream was that one day soon they would recover all of them from the Vatican and return them to Jerusalem which would indicate the beginning of the rebuilding of the Temple and the redemption of the people and land of Israel. (End quote).
This article is a combination of presumption and truth that holds only one point of interest to Christians.
Exposing chutzpah: According to II Kings 15:30 the last king of Israel was Hoshea who murdered his "friend" king Pekah. Assyria conquered the Northern kingdom in 721BC and transported its subjects to surrounding nations where they remain to this day, mostly as Moslems (Isaiah 11:11; 24:14-15; 27:13; Hosea 11:10-12). The Northern kingdom lasted for 241 years, seven months, and seven days, and was extinct more than 860 years before Titus was born!!
The kingdom of Judah was conquered and Jerusalem taken by Babylon in 587BC. Its last king, Zedekiah, died in captivity the following year. Thereafter Judah became in turn a province of Persia, Greece and Rome, which will rule unto the consummation (Daniel 2:1-45). According to Daniel 9:27, Israel, Jerusalem and 'temple mount' shall be "overspread with abominations and desolate, until the consummation of life, when the decreed end shall be poured out on the desolator" (Luke 21:24).
Choose you this day whether you will follow Baal and his Temple Mount Terrorists, or the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of the vindicated prophets Moses, Isaiah and Daniel; the God that raised Jesus Messiah from the dead and the God of the prophet William Branham, or if you will you follow the false anointed ones at the end-time (Matthew 24:24)?
Ezra, Nehemiah, Ezekiel, Obadiah, Malachi, Maccabees, the Gospels and Jesus' refusal to dwell among them clearly inform us that through miscegenation with the Edomites and Canaanites, the Judeans, along with their Edomite royal family and much of the priesthood, had become predominantly physical Serpent's seed centuries before Titus was born.
Eventually the land passed back to the Semitic Arabs and Hebrews who lived in harmony for centuries until it was stolen back by Rothschild's Canaanite and Edomite tribesmen in 1948.
Genesis 25:23, "God told Rebekah, The sons in your womb shall turn out to be two rival nations. One will be stronger than the other, and the older shall serve the younger".
There was hostility between these two "nations" even before their progenitors had left the womb because "God has set enmity between the seed of the Serpent and the seed of Adam" (Genesis 3:15). If you doubt that "enmity" is still there, read your newspapers and history books. Study how the seed of the Serpent has created wars amongst Adam's people, how it demands world hegemony, mistreats the citizens of Palestine, Syria, Iraq, native Russians, Germans, Afghanis, Americans, all Christian and nominally Christian peoples today, as 'human cattle' to be culled as they will.
Some within Message circles believe contrary to the Bible and Brother Branham that the physical Serpent's seed perished in the Flood. However, if the Serpent in his present form still crawls upon his belly, women still bear naturally in pain and sorrow and men still earn their living by the sweat of their brow, then the Serpent's seed is also present now.
By foreknowledge God knew that Esau would have no respect to the birthright as he would marry Serpent's seed women and destroy the inheritance of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Genesis 27:46, "Rebekah told Isaac, I am tired of living because Esau has married Hittite women: if Jacob takes a wife of the Serpent's seed, such as these local girls, I will have lived a wasted life!"
Two last comments on chutzpah. No one can state as a 'fact' that the golden menorah and vessels were 'placed in the basement of the Vatican'. And although Christianity has spread throughout the Roman Empire, no one should imply as a 'fact' that the Vatican or Judaeo-Roman Catholic church is now or was ever Christian. The Roman Catholic church was organized by apostate "Jews" and is now controlled by apostate "Jews" who include Popes and the Marrano Jesuits.
Now for the Truth: The return of these treasures to Jerusalem "would indicate the beginning of the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem and the redemption of the people and land of Israel." Israel is God's timepiece, the true Protestant Church is "the people of God," for as the writer of this article has observed, neither the people nor the Land of Israel are redeemed: they are trodden down by the seed of the Serpent in their midst.
Soon Judaeo-Rome will relocate to Jerusalem to rule the new world order. The Temple Institute has begun to restore and construct the sacred vessels for the service of the third temple. Among the many completed items on exhibit are musical instruments played by the Levitical choir, the golden crown of the High Priest, his Breastplate and Ephod and gold and silver vessels used in the incense and sacrificial services, the golden menorah, the golden Altar of Incense, and the golden Table of Showbread, while the brazen laver is under construction. These images are quite instructive. Rome will very likely subsidize temple construction of the third temple as Babylon and Persia (Iran) helped fund the restoration of the first temple, and when it is dedicated the then Devil-incarnate pope will usurp authority as foretold by Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jesus, John and Paul.
The one point of interest to Christians in the Temple Mount Terrorist's article is that since Israel is God's timepiece . . . for us Christians . . . it further indicates the lateness of the hour.
Carnal blood-thirsty Temple Mount Terrorists and superstitious Branhamites, God needs no temple made with hands. Jesus Christ and the saints of all the Ages are the Temple and dwelling place of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (I Corinthians 6:19; Revelation 21:22)! Jesus Christ is the true Ark in Whom God and man are united as signified by the golden box of shittim wood, while the golden Menorah types Christ in the midst of the elect Church from Seven Church Ages (Revelation 1:12-20).
Everything a minister teaches whoever he is or claims to be, must match Scripture in continuity from Genesis to Revelation. Some pastors, not having rightly divided the Word of God and not born-again promote the self-styled "Jews" as "God's chosen people" when the word is an abbreviation for "Judean," a resident of Judea regardless of race or religion. This new word did not appear in any Bible translation in any language prior to the latter half of the eighteenth century. Its contemporary meaning is contrary to the two words it has replaced and a deliberate deception by these non-Semitic descendants of Esau and their Khazar kindred who harvest the superstitious ignorance of nominal Christians and Muslims, while assaying to steal back Esau's forfeited birthright and blessing as prophesied:
Genesis 27:39-41, "Isaac said to Esau, Behold, your dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above. By your sword shall you live, and serve your brother; and when you have the dominion, you will break his yoke from your neck. And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him: Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob".
The "people of God"—His chosen people—are Abraham's seed by the baptism with the Holy Ghost—not denominational believers—but born-again saints in whose lives God is writing the present Truth (Galatians 3:26-29). God's children are not apostate Israelites nor their "Jewish" impersonators but everyone born of His Spirit. Would the omniscient God choose a predominately Gentile Word Bride, if Christ-rejecting Israel were His chosen people?
II Corinthians 6:14-15, "Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has Light with darkness? What harmony can exist between Christ and Satan? Or how can a Christian be partner with one who does not believe?"
Brother Branham warned us, Jacob was "a type of the Jew now. He's a money snatcher. I don't care how he gets it; he will get it. He will skin you alive to get it. You know that. He's a little shyster. . . Boy, don't deal with him. He will get you" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 426:6).
I am persuaded there are many in the circle of this Message who are religious but not spiritual. Their faith paralyzed "for fear of the Jews" (Esther 8:17; John 7:13; 19:38; 20:19) because they do not understand Genesis 12:3: "I will bless them that bless you, and curse he who curses you: and in you shall all families of the earth be blessed," Galatians 3, Romans 8:28-39, or I John 2:21-23; 3:5-10, and II John 7-11). Genesis 12:3 refers to the offspring of Abraham, Isaac and Israel who uphold God's Covenant as confirmed by Revelation 6:9-11, and to the offspring of Abraham's promised Seed, Jesus Messiah, with whom Jewry in general is at enmity (Deuteronomy 7:1-3; Joshua 1:1-7). Jesus confirms this in Matthew 25:31-46 where He states that at the White Throne Judgment the non-elect who have honoured Him in their goodness and kindness to His Bride will be blessed by being granted into eternal Life, whereas all who have unjustly or unkindly mistreated us, being cursed, will be cast into the lake of Fire. Worldwide, politicians, bureaucrats, businessmen, and clergy fear and are ruled by self-styled "Jews," as seen in the US embrace of the Talmud's fraudulent Noahide laws, miscegenation and racial hatred legislation contrary to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel which they have imposed on all once-Christian European nations.
I suspect "certain vagabond Jews . . . have crept in unawares" (Acts 19:13; Galatians 2:4-6; Jude 4-16). If Jesus' circle of disciples at the first crucifixion types the circle of His friends at the second crucifixion, there is a Judas is our midst today and he has sold out the Message which is Christ the Word. Judas was the only disciple who was a Jew, the others were Galileans. Brother Branham said there are many Judas's today.
If you are truly born-again, you are one of God's chosen people under the Blood of the unconditional Covenant. Anyone outside the Body of Christ is without the New Covenant as any Israelite outside the Land is without the conditional Old Covenant. They may well be "saved," but they are not numbered among "the people of God".
Brother Branham said, "Make-believers, deceivers—trying to find some fault with God and His Word. That's the Judas's . . . . . highly educated sometimes and when a great showdown comes between the Word and their creed they sell out to their denomination just exactly like their forerunner did, Judas. Judas sold out to his denomination, sold Jesus the Word to his denomination and betrayed Jesus Christ after he claimed to be a part of it".
"Ministers sometimes claiming to be servants of Christ, and when the Word is thoroughly identified to be vindicated for that day—that it is the Message of the hour—they'll sell out their popularity to their denomination just exactly like Judas did, betray Jesus to the Pharisees and the Sadducees. That spirit doesn't die. Some of them are highly talented people... Deceiving the world, they are organizers. They are prosperous, successful, and smart in worldly wisdom. They're ninety-five percent on the Word . . . so was Eve. . ." (William Branham, Three Kinds of Believers, p. 29:219-244).
Don't be ashamed of Christ in this last generation of grace. It is sinful, adulterous, perplexed, and full of putrefied sores. Everything that was once decent has become indecent. The nations have been divided and conquered by banksters who control the best politicians money can buy in order to establish the totalitarian one world government that Satan offered to Jesus Christ if He would become his sycophant and worship him (Matthew 4:8-9).
If you are a Christian, don't be afraid to identify yourself with the people of God.
If, as these modern-day Judas's preach, "Jews" are "God's chosen people," why has God promised to convert Israel to Christianity in one day rather than convert Christians to Judaism? But Jesus, Peter and Paul rebuked the Jews' religion? In light of what these Judas's teach, presenting Talmudic anti-Christ rabbis in their pulpits, are they 'converting' misguided Christians to Judaism, which teaches Jesus, is the illegitimate son of a Hebrew prostitute and a Roman soldier, now boiling in hot excrement (Talmud, Gittin 57a, footnote #3)?
As Jesus explained to the Samaritan prostitute, "the time is coming when it will be of no consequence where, but how men worship, [proving there is nothing to Roman Catholicism]. True worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and in Truth" (John 4:20-24). So "the people of God" are the elect of Adam's race who know Him by faith.
Israel became "God's people" when He fulfilled His promise to Abraham (Genesis 15; Exodus 6:1-8; Deuteronomy 4:37; 10:15). Yet the benefits of the natural Covenant became conditional upon national obedience after God smote the adult Israelites from the Book of Life on account of their constant murmuring and placed the nation under the Law, which foreshadowed our better unconditional Spiritual Covenant. And when Israel rejected this Covenant and murdered Messiah He ceased dealing with the nation and began calling to anyone of Adam's race who will receive His grace through faith.
As Peter explains, "To you who believe, Christ is precious: but to the disobedient, the stone that was rejected by the builders of the temple has become the Cornerstone, the most honored and important part of the building. A Stone of stumbling, and Rock of offense to those who stumble, because they disobey and disbelieve God's Word, as they were predestined."
Hebrews 3 and 4 tell how when Israel was "the people of God" journeying to the Promised Land the nation constantly hardened its heart against God as Pharaoh had hardened his heart against Israel. Grieved with that generation He angrily swore they should not enter into His rest. Yet there remains a sabbath for "the people of God"—not in Canaan—but in Christ by "a better covenant established on better promises" than that of Moses which God promised the House of Judah and the House of Israel, who judged themselves unworthy of eternal Life until after the Gentile dispensation is fulfilled (Jeremiah 31:31-34; Ezekiel 36:26-27; 37:11-28; Acts 13:46; Hebrews 8:5-13), followed by the millennial sabbath or "restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21).
Peter told the elect scattered throughout Asia, "You who in the past were not a people are now the people of God" (I Peter 2:7-10). Paul spoke likewise to the Church in Ephesus (Ephesians 4:16). Jesus said, "I am the Vine, you are the branches," and Paul explained how the natural branch of Israel has been cut off from the Root of the Vine on account of unbelief and the elect Gentiles grafted in . . . for a time (John 15:5-6; Romans 11:11-32).
Israel is out of communion with God until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in for they know not Christ. The sin and trespass offerings were done away when Jesus lay down His Life and the veil of the temple was rent from the top to the bottom. Israel's communion will only be restored by faith through the ministry of two prophets. Then all Israel, all 144,000 of them, will be born-again in one day of national atonement (Isaiah 10:3,17; 24:21-23; 30:26; 61:2; 66:8; Ezekiel 39:22; Daniel 9:24,27; Zechariah 3:9-10; 12:1—14:9).
The most joyous of all sacrifices was the peace offering which was the offering of completion and continual communion with God. It types the Lord's Supper where all partake of the common elements in a communion sacrifice from which praise and thanksgiving naturally flow (I Corinthians 10:16-18). It always followed all of the other sacrifices and was an occasion of happy fellowship with the Covenant God, in which He condescended to become Israel's Guest at the sacrificial meal, even as He was always their Host. Thus it symbolized the spiritual truth expressed in Revelation 3:20, in which Laodicea rejected God's Word, "Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any individual hears My voice, and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will feast with him, and he with Me".
In peace offerings the sacrificial meal was the point of main importance as the memorial of the Lord's Supper is today. It is this sacrifice which is so frequently referred to in the Psalms as the grateful homage of a soul justified and accepted before God (Psalm 51:17; 54:6; 116:17-18). The Septuagint frequently calls peace offerings the "sacrifices of praise" and by employing the same language Paul identifies Jesus Christ as the Antitype of this sacrifice: "By Him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually;" and again, "We have an altar from which those who serve and worship in the tabernacle have no right to eat" (Hebrews 13:10-15).
In the oblation accompanying peace offerings, leavened bread was required. This could not be burnt upon the altar—nevertheless it must be presented to the Lord for a heave offering as many things in a man's daily life cannot, from their nature, be directly appropriated to the service of God; yet all must be sanctified by being presented before Him.
After His baptism the Spirit drove Jesus into the wilderness where He fasted forty days and forty nights, like Moses and Elijah (Exodus 24:18; I Kings 19:8) but unlike the children of Israel, without sin. Jesus' first desert temptation had been in the gray of breaking light, when to that faint and weary Looker the stones of that arid wilderness seemed to take fantastic shapes, like the bread for which His faint body now craved. And being hungry, the spirit of the Devil tempted Him to turn these stones into bread, but Jesus overcame with the Word of God. Satan next carried Him to Jerusalem and placed Him on the lofty tower of the temple porch before the holy place overlooking the altar of sacrifice upon which every day a priest was stationed to watch, as the pale morning light passed over the hills of Judea far off to Hebron, to announce it as sunrise. This was the signal to prepare for the morning sacrifice which was only to be slain after the morning light had lit up "the whole of the sky as far as Hebron," yet before the sun had actually risen upon the horizon.
The priest having just departed, Jesus stood on the watch-post as the morning light spread over the land. In the Priests' Court below Him the morning-sacrifice has been slain. And as the massive temple gates slowly swung on their hinges, a three-fold blast from the silver trumpets of the Priests seemed to awaken the City, as with the Voice of God, to the life of another day. It is the "third hour," corresponding to our nine o'clock.
"Now descend Ye," says Satan, "Heaven-borne, into the midst of the priests and people. What shouts of acclamation will greet Your appearance! What homage of worship will be Yours"!
This is the strong delusion held by denominational people today who anticipate His visible physical (Gk. 'erchomai') return in the clouds of heaven when He prophesied an invisible (Gk. 'parousia') Coming in W_O_R_D form through the mouth of the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6, Matthew 17:11, and Revelation 10:7. This was signified in the heavens by the Shekinah or Cloud of glory over Arizona on February 28, 1963 (Daniel 7:9; Matthew 26:64; Acts 1:9-11; I Thessalonians 4:14-16; 5:1-5; Revelation 1:7, 14; 10:1-7; 16:15). His second physical return will not take place until after the consummation of life (Malachi 4:1-3; Daniel 2:44; Matthew 3:12; II Thessalonians 1:7-10; Revelation 19:20).
Now, turning their backs upon Jerusalem's temple and all the familiar prejudices of nationalism, morality, culture, religion and other restraints, they stand upon the summit of that great mountain, which is Satan's totalitarian new world order of Daniel's Seventieth Week that will become a plain before the Stone the builders rejected (Daniel 2:44; Zechariah 4:7).
Unveiled as far as eye can see, Jesus views this world of the immediate future in its entire material splendor. "I will deliver all of this to You, if You will fall down and worship me," says His Adversary.
High above this moving scene of grandeur and man-made beauty arched the azure of God's heaven, and brighter than the sun, which now poured its light over the sheen and dazzle beneath, stood out the fact: "I must be about My Father's business. . . Be gone, Satan: for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve."
The office of Satanic Messiah that Jesus here declined will be accepted by the Pope of Rome. But the final realization of Satan's empire, caused by the alienation of man from God, will last for only a "short space" (Revelation 17:10), for "Jesus was manifested that He might destroy the works of the Devil," abolish his kingdom and set man free from his dominion (I John 3:8-9; I Corinthians 15:23-28).
The worshipers at the morning service may have gathered chiefly to join in the prayers "at the time of incense" (Luke 1:10) which no doubt coincided with our nine o'clock. This explains how, on the day of Pentecost such a multitude could so readily "come together," to hear in their own various languages "the wonderful works of God [preached in Galilean]—seeing it was the third hour," when they would all be in the Temple (Acts 2:15).
Our gathering by Brother Branham's Message is the time of evening incense in these last days. Psalm 141:2, "Let my prayer be set forth before You as incense, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice".
Revelation 8:1-5, "When Christ had opened the Seventh Seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels of the Presence to whom were given seven trumpets. And another Angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given Him, [the revelation of the Seven Thunders (Revelation 1:1; 10:1-7)], that He should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar that stood before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God out of the Angel's hand. And the Angel took the censer, and filled it with Fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake".
This will be the time of the great earthquakes that sink Los Angeles and cleave the Mount of Olives. And as at His crucifixion at the end of the Hebrew dispensation, an earthquake will signal the end of the Gentile dispensation. The sun will become black, and volcanic dust will turn the moon blood red. Mighty waves will roar as tsunamis sweep the oceans. There will be distress among nations and men's hearts will fail them for fear of nuclear warfare (Matthew 27:50-53; Revelation 6:12-17; Luke 21:24-25). Three days after the earthquake, the resurrection of the Church Age saints will begin, accompanied by the manifestation of the living Sons of God.
Brother Branham said, "The night was not divided into hours in Bible times; it was divided into watches. There were three watches. Now, the first watch started from nine until twelve; the second watch started from twelve to three, and the third watch of the night was counted from three to six. Now we have three, three three's, which is a nine [hours]: imperfect number. Then we come back to the seven [i.e. seven o'clock] for the rapture, which will take place I believe between six and nine o'clock some morning. For the trumpet of the Lord shall sound . . ." (The Rapture, p. 26:127).
Psalm 81:3-10, "Blow the trumpet in the month at the full moon on the day of our [Passover] feast. For this was a statute for Israel, and a Law of the God of Jacob (Exodus 12:14). He ordained them in Joseph [Israel] as reminders of His war against the land of Egypt [when He slew the first-born]. I heard a voice I had not known: "I [the Lord] removed Israel's shoulder from the burden: his hands were delivered from the carrying basket. In distress you called, and I delivered you; I answered you in thunder [veiled behind the theophany of the Pillar of Cloud and Fire whence I performed My wonders against the Egyptians in the passage through the Red Sea]: I tried you at the waters of Meribah (Exodus 17:17). Listen to Me, O My people, while I give you stern warnings. O Israel, if you will only listen! There shall be no strange god among you; neither shall you worship any alien god. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt: open your mouth wide and I will fill it with every blessing you need"."
The Trumpet's sound signifies the Voice of God (Isaiah 58:1; Hosea 8:1; Zephaniah 1:14-16; Revelation 1:10; 4:1). Israel's Seventh Trumpet will announce the Day of the Lord, the close of the Gentile dispensation, and after three days, the Pentecostal Jubilee will commence when the Church Age saints begin to resurrect and "we who are alive and remain" will manifest that we are the sons of God to elevate our faith for translation grace (I Corinthians 15:52; I Thessalonians 4:16; Romans 8:19). The Trumpet of the Lord will ignite the "hot" stage of the present World War III, with Jerusalem its locus, following the cleaving of the Mount of Olives and the destruction of the Dome of the Rock. It will be the start of Daniel's Seventieth Week in which God will anoint two Hebrew prophets to call Israel to their feast of Trumpets, remind them of their Covenant (Daniel 9:27; Malachi 4:4), put God in remembrance of His promises, reveal two thousand years of fulfilled prophecy, and Christ's 'parousia' Coming in the office of Son of man (Numbers 10:9; Zechariah 4; Isaiah 43:26; Matthew 24:31; Revelation 11).
Israel's first Pentecost at Mount Sinai was also a type of judgment. Exodus 19:16-18, "On the third day (of sanctification) there were thunders and lightnings and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud; so that the people in the camp trembled . . . and the whole mountain quaked gently." This time God will not only shake the earth, but also the heaven (Hebrews 12:26-29).
"The March 1964 Good Friday earthquake of Alaska shook the whole world though it did not unbalance it. But God was warning [us] by a world tremor what He will soon do on a greater scale" (William Branham, An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 323).
The Pentecostal Feast of Weeks commenced on Nisan 16 with the resurrection of Christ, God's firstfruit and our Head. It will be completed with the resurrection of the Church Age saints and the translation of the Living saints at the close of His parousia to we Gentiles "when the day of Pentecost has fully come" again.
According to Hebrew tradition, universally received at the time of Christ, the day of Pentecost was the anniversary of the giving of the Law on Mount Sinai which the Feast of Weeks was intended to commemorate. Thus, as the dedication of the harvest, commencing with the presentation of the first omer on the second day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, was completed in a thank offering of two wave-loaves at Pentecost, so this memorial of Israel's deliverance appropriately terminated in that of the giving of the Law. Likewise the Passover sacrifice of the Lord Jesus may be said to have been completed in the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost and the giving of the "better law, written not in tables of stone, but on the fleshy tables of the heart . . . with the Spirit of the living God." For the worshipers were in the Temple, and probably just as they were offering the wave lambs and the wave bread the multitude heard a "sound from heaven as of a mighty rushing wind," which drew them to the house where the apostles were gathered, there to hear "every man in his own tongue, the wonderful works of God." And on that Pentecost day, from the harvest of firstfruits, 3,000 souls added to the Church were presented as a wave offering to the Lord.
Throughout the manifestation of the Sons of God in the forthcoming Pentecostal jubilee, Christ's end-time Bride will be waved before the Lord like the wave loaves whose leaven is emblematic of our sin-born corruptible flesh which, glancing back to the original sin is "the works of the Devil." However, the end-time Bride, under pre-eminence to the Word, and every One, will demonstrate before the Father that the Son of God has "destroyed the works of the Devil" and prove to all of groaning creation that in Christ our Covenant Sacrifice we have overcome the world and death. eb258.htm
