Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

Jews from the northern tribes of Israel would have formed Jewish communities in Assyria, like many of the other ethnic groups who gathered together because of their common language and customs. And the common people did not travel much, nor assimilate with people from other groups in those days. So, although about 135 years had passed, many Jews from the northern tribes would have still spoken the Hebrew language and possessed a residual knowledge of Yahweh. Also, many Jews from Ephraim would have longed to return to their God and to their land, since Assyria was such an unjust and ruthless nation. So the incoming Jews from Judah, with the same language and similar customs, who came after Babylon took over Assyria, would have joined and influenced the Jews from Ephraim. And devout Jews from Judah would have taught Ephraim this doctrine from this prophecy, which they learned through Jeremiah just before their captivity. Judah would have taught Ephraim that, no matter how much God’s elect from Ephraim had sinned, God would not cast them aside forever, and they could repent to Yahweh, even after He had disciplined them so harshly. For God’s love is steadfast and unconditional for all His elect children. His love for them did not fade or fail.

Then God told His family of Israel, which included both Judah and Ephraim, “Set up road markers for yourself; make yourself guideposts; consider well the highway, the road by which you went. Return, O virgin Israel, return to these your cities. How long will you waver, O faithless daughter? For Yahweh has created a new thing on the earth: a woman encircles a man” (Jer. 31:21-22, ESV). God wanted the Jews to remember their journey into exile, to understand how they sinned and why He cast them into a foreign land. For God’s land of Israel was forever reserved for Him and His serving priesthood. So, when the Jews became enamored with the teachings and ways of the pagan Assyrians and Babylonians, then syncretized those unjust traditions with the doctrines of God’s laws and His other Scriptures, and consistently refused to repent, God had to expel them from His land.

For God could not permit His priests to treat one another and the immigrants in His land like the pagans did. When the Jews, who bore God’s name, began to worship money and power in the same way the pagans did, and unjustly abused one another and the strangers in their land, they slandered His good name. So God cast them out and replaced them with pagans who did not bear His name, who could not slander His name. Thus, their promised land became as it was before He brought them into it, just as it was before placed His name upon them. But God will bring Israel back to their land and cause them to repent into His New Covenant relationship with Him at the appointed time. So the Jews were to remember the way they went into exile, and return by the same road. They were to make “markers” and “guideposts,” which are the laws and ways of God, so they can return to those laws and ways, so they can fulfill those laws and ways through repentance into those truths, which will only be possible through the New Covenant works of salvation by the Messiah, our God Jesus.

This New Covenant relationship with Yahweh, which His currently “unfaithful,” “backsliding” or “apostate” (Hebrew = shobeb) daughter of Israel will soon have with Him, will be something which He Himself “creates” or “shapes” (Hebrew = bawraw) with His own hands, through His own works. And God will do other works for Israel and through Israel in the “latter days.” For God promised that His daughter will become like “a woman on the earth,” a physically existing “woman” and beloved “daughter” of God, who “encircles,” “surrounds,” “besieges” (Hebrew = sawbab) a “valiant man” or “warrior” (Hebrew = ghehber). In ancient times, it was unheard of for a woman, much less a female child or daughter, to besiege a “warrior.” Yet, in the “latter days” Israel will do this, and is now doing this, although no one thought the Jews could ever possibly overcome all their enemies.

Right now Israel remains the same “backsliding” people they were when they entered captivity more than 2,500 years ago. And the prophecies say that most of the Jews will remain apostate until the day Jesus returns. Nevertheless, by the will, power and manipulating hands of our God Jesus, they will

Page 1419

prepare their land for His return. And Jesus will also prepare their spirits to serve as His inner priesthood after He returns. Then all the Jews will do the same kinds of works for His Gentile elect, whom He has gathered into Israel’s tribe of Judah, that His inner Aaronic priesthood once did for the other tribes in Israel during the Old Covenant times. During the millennium, Jesus will tell the Jews: “Thus you shall bless the people of Israel: you shall say to them, Yahweh bless you and keep you; Yahweh make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; Yahweh lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace. So shall they put My name upon the people of Israel, and I will bless them” (Num. 6:23-27, ESV). Putting God’s name on a people means calling them to fulfill His Law, teaching and reasoning with them about God’s own wise, loving interpretations of His own words.

But now a humanistic Israel superstitiously refuses to even utter the name “Yahweh,” because they remain trapped in the religious traditions of Babylon. So, because they believe the false teachings of men, they cannot truly bless anyone in any real way, since God’s blessings are for those who do His will, not for those who do the wills of human gods, and certainly not for those who do Satan’s will, to gain money and power from that devil’s world order. Also, our God Jesus will never truly bless humanistic Gentile churches and Muslims who persecute Israel either, since they too blaspheme the words and the name of God daily. But soon, during the end times and the millennium, all the Gentile elect and all elect Jews will truly bless one another in the name of the real God, in the name of Jesus.

When the Holy Spirit of the heavenly Father and their oldest Brother incites the spirits of Israel to walk in His name and once more proclaim, “Yahweh bless you,” they too will be blessed. No longer will they rely on pagan-like rituals and phylacteries to make them feel superior to their fellow man, like the humanistic fake Gentile churches do. Instead, they will actually care for and love both the Gentile and Jewish elect, ministering to their fellow man in true service to their Creator and Messiah.

Today, the “fathers” of both the natural and in-grafted branches of Israel pass on lies, delusions, superstition and ignorance to their “children,” leading each subsequent generation into the same sins they commit. Century after century sees loveless wanna-be human gods striving to take captive and exploit “inferiors” in hierarchical class systems, longing to be called “lords” and other titles of artificial esteem. Thus, the people remain senseless fools, live empty lives, constantly seeking ways to delude or distract their vain flesh, and engage in utterly insane wars, violence, bigotry, oppression and vengeance, causing their own destruction and death to all the earth. None cooperate in wisdom and build up God’s just, equitable kingdom through love for one another. When God strives to counsel elect spirits, the human gods distort His words and replaces His words with their own. So none heed either His encouragements or rebukes. Thus, God will soon begin to judge the world.

This era of the fifth seal is coming to a close, and God will begin the end times with world-wide earthquakes and meteors striking the ground. God will become each elect man’s Father, and Jesus will be each man’s Head, personally teaching and training each to fulfill His Law. Then will each man’s spirit know God, His loving, just attributes and His ways. Every elect son and daughter will repent into the truth and no longer follow in the ways of earthly fathers, only the ways of the spirit’s Father in heaven. Each will honor an earthly father by first and foremost honoring the infinitely greater eternal Father. Then each unrepentant sinner will die for one’s own lies and sins, not for the lies and sins of an earthly parent. No longer will a person esteem and serve another in worship, as all do now, especially through Satan’s religion of humanism. Instead, all the loveless non-elect will die and all the elect will know that only God is truly loving, just, righteous and wise, worthy of worship.

Through Jeremiah, God finally revealed that He would make a new, loving, unconditional and eternal relationship with His elect, a new marriage-like covenant with the same people with whom

He made the Old Covenant. In the temporary Old Covenant days, most Jews descended from Jacob in Judah, where God had gathered all His Gentile offspring, and the Jews in the other tribes of Israel, did not truly know Him, although He revealed Himself to them through many prophets and other loving elect souls dwelling among them. So most of Israel could not be His bride. For a bride is always seeking to know the thoughts of her husband, as well as everyone else she serves for her joy.

Yet, with this ignorant and unloving Israel and Judah alone, God made His New Covenant of salvation in the Messiah, Jesus. For, by His works of fulfilling His promises of that covenant, He would forgive the lies and sins of the flesh committed by all His elect on earth, wash their internal filth away with the blood of His flesh. Then He could justly send His own Spirit into each of their hearts and souls, to cleanse them of their errant thoughts, to teach their spirits new ways of thinking, even how to love in the same way He loves. And these works of God would teach them the truth about Himself, so each would even know the motives and intentions of His heart. This knowledge would draw all the Gentile elect into Judah, to join the elect Jews in His priesthood of Israel. By His New Covenant works of teaching their elect spirits, He would win a bride who truly knew His thoughts and His ways. For this was all He really wanted, a bride to share His loving life with Him.

During the Exodus, when God made the Old Covenant, many Gentile slaves from Canaan and Africa came with the Jews out of Egypt, and God called all those Jews and Gentiles together by the name of Israel. And most of those Gentiles entered the tribe of the Messiah, which is Judah. Even now, all elect Gentiles who are granted the Messiah’s New Covenant salvation are brought into Judah, to become one priesthood and nation with the elect Jews. So it will be that all elect Jews and all elect Gentiles shall receive the same spiritual promises of eternal salvation in heaven. But only the elect Jews, only the physical descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, will receive God’s Abrahamic Covenant promise to receive the physical land of Israel. For all elect Gentiles have the same kind of spirit as the elect Gentile whom God named Abraham, but not Abraham’s same physical attributes.

As for God’s spiritual promises in His eternal New Covenant, which are also His same spiritual promises in His eternal Abrahamic Covenant, these can be summarized as: (1) God will serve His people as their God, even as the loving Father of their spirits teaching them how to care for their inheritance, and (2) He will cause their spirits to willingly serve Him as His children. But the only way God can possibly do this is by personally writing His Law on their hearts, so they will know how to love in a pure and just way like He does. For His Law reveals the attributes, motives and intentions of His heart. And when God said He would “write” His Law on their hearts, He meant that He would teach and train their spirits to truly know Him and His thoughts. Thus, God must first personally teach and train each of their elect spirits, so they will know the real truth about Him and His ways. Then, after personally educating their spirits, they will be able to truly love in a God-like way, so they can rightly serve Him. By learning His ways, they can then do His works with Him. They can labor beside their Father and oldest Brother through God-like love, on earth and in heaven.

Therefore, the Creating Spirit came to the earth in a body of flesh to nullify the just condemnation of His elect children for their lies and sins, by sacrificing His sinless flesh to justly pay for the sins of their flesh. But their infantile elect spirits proved to be forgivable since those spirits possessed an innate ability to repent into the truth, whenever they heard it. For those elect spirits only sinned due to their ignorance of God’s own right and wise interpretation of His Law, because Satan and his lying human offspring deceived the elect, regarding God’s Law and ways. By God’s works for the forgiveness of lies and sins, the Spirit of God restored His relationship with elect spirits. God could justly enter the hearts and souls of His elect, to teach and train their spirits. And God could also enable and make effective the good works of their hearts and hands. God justified His right to teach,

Page 1421

Last Days Timeline

 

train, counsel, protect and forgive them, to serve them as their God. And through all these saving works, His elect children were justified in their right to serve their Father’s kingdom, even eternally.

If elect souls are truly justified, because God cannot fail to do the work of making each and every one completely and subjectively righteous by the end of the last day, then the elect can rejoice in this good news, and pursue that redemption with all their strength. And, if the utterly Holy Creator can forgive their lies and sins because they repent and being made subjectively righteous, it is no longer unjust for those elect to forgive the repented lies and sins other elect souls. Yet all revolves around His Spirit teaching and training their spirits for repentance into the truth of His Law, into the just, equitable and loving principles which define God’s attributes and ways. If Jesus’ Holy Spirit does not begin to write His Law on the hearts and in the minds of His elect, there can be no repentance into those truths, no forgiveness, no restoration of their relationship with Him and no true salvation.

Yet our God Jesus will not forget nor neglect to do this saving work for every one of His elect. We will see literally all His elect who ever lived throughout history made loving and righteous by the end of the last day. Then God will also fulfill all His promises to provide His physical rewards for the physical heirs of Jacob as well, for those to whom He gave the name of Israel. And He promised them, only if the sun and moon stop shining, “then shall the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation.” Of course, most of the natural Jews have remained in the Babylon captivity to this day, and Rome removed them from their physical land almost two thousand years ago. But the Jews have survived as a definable people or nation since the days of Babylon, and became a nation with physical borders again in 1948. Soon Israel will become the nation of God’s priests forever too, on the day their Messiah Jesus returns to rule as their High Priest, and as the King of all God’s entire earthly and heavenly kingdom. So He has kept and will keep His promises for His physical rewards.

Only if the earth ends will Israel stop being a nation, despite the efforts of Satan’s Roman beast to eliminate Israel. And the earth shall not end before Jesus crushes His earthly enemies to dust, then returns to the nation of Israel and causes them to serves as His inner priesthood, as a faithful people who worship their God Yahweh in His body. And God said that none will measure the universe, nor explore the center of the earth, before “the offspring of Israel cease from being a nation before Me forever.” Scientists love to brag about doing just this, but they have not even come close to doing it. Secular humanists like to pretend that their false science proves that God does not exist and that His revelations in the Bible are wrong. But they do not actually practice true science, since they refuse to acknowledge the empirical evidence of spiritual effects, as all real scientists must. Therefore, God’s true elect of Israel will remain alive, even forever after God ends the temporary material universe.

It is impossible for God to ever cast off the Jews again, even for all their lies and sins. For God is omniscient and omnipotent in all His creations, and cannot break His promises, lest He destroy even Himself, even faster and more powerfully than we destroy ourselves through lies and sins. Instead, God will discipline elect flesh, so He can also teach and train their spirits to love and obey Him. God will surely forgive and restore His natural Israel in Christ’s New Covenant, immediately after He forgives and restores the elect from the Gentile tribes who corrupted Israel. His New Covenant promises to restore Israel and make her holy, so she will never be destroyed or exiled again, will not fail to be fulfilled. For that future already exists, and God has not only seen it, but also created it. So the process of fulfilling His promise, even through the current apostate Israelites, will be completed.

Ezekiel 28:24-26 (ESV): “And for the house of Israel there shall be no more a brier to prick

or a thorn to hurt them among all their neighbors who have treated them with contempt. Then

they will know that I am the Lord [Yahweh]. Thus says the Lord [Yahweh]: When I gather

 

Page 1422

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

the house of Israel from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and manifest My

holiness in them in the sight of the nations [i.e., in the sight of the Gentiles], then they shall dwell

in their own land that I gave to My servant Jacob. And they shall dwell securely in it, and

they shall build houses and plant vineyards. They shall dwell securely, when I execute

judgments upon all their neighbors who have treated them with contempt. Then they will

know that I am [Yahweh] their God.”

All the prophecies of God in all the Scriptures agree that, during the millennium of Christ’s rule, all of natural Israel will dwell in peace, without enemies, because Jesus will destroy all their enemies when He returns. Due to the lies of Satan’s religion of humanism, which he developed through Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome, the non-elect of the world still treat Israel “with contempt.” Even the non-elect Jews hate the true elect among them, and also despise both God’s physical and spiritual promises for Israel. But, after Jesus returns to rule the earth during the millennium, He will “gather” His true family of Israel “from the peoples among whom they are scattered, and manifest [His] holiness in them in the sight of the Gentiles.” All the physical descendants of Jacob will dwell in the physical land He eternally promised to His chosen sons of Abraham. From that day on, “they shall dwell securely,” because our God Jesus will have completed His plagues of the end times, to “execute judgments upon all their neighbors who have treated them with contempt.” Then the elect among those “neighbors” will also know that Jesus is “Yahweh their God,” then truly worship Him.

Micah 4:1-8: “It shall come to pass in the latter days that the mountain of the house of

[Yahweh] shall be established as the highest [foremost] of the mountains, and it shall be lifted

up [exalted] above the hills; and peoples shall flow to it, and many nations [i.e., Gentiles] shall

come, and say: ‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of [Yahweh], to the house of the God of

Jacob, that He may teach us His ways and that we may walk in His paths.’ For out of Zion

shall go forth the Law, and the word of [Yahweh] from Jerusalem.

“He shall judge between many peoples, and shall decide for strong nations afar off; and they

shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not

lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore ; but they shall sit every

man under his vine and under his fig tree, and no one shall make them afraid, for the mouth

of [Yahweh] of hosts has spoken. For all the peoples walk each in the name of its god, but we

will walk in the name of [Yahweh] our God forever and ever.

“In that day, declares [Yahweh], I will assemble the lame and gather those who have been

driven away and those whom I have afflicted; and the lame I will make the remnant, and

those who were cast off, a strong nation; and [Yahweh] will reign over them in Mount Zion

from this time forth and forevermore. And you, O tower of the flock, hill of the daughter of

Zion, to you shall it come, the former dominion shall come, kingship for the daughter of

Jerusalem.”

This is obviously God’s description of the millennium, after the Messiah rules the earth from the temple in Jerusalem, after the Day of Yahweh in the “latter days.” During that time, “the mountain of the house of Yahweh,” which is the temple mount in Jerusalem, “shall be established as the foremost of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills.” For the King and High Priest will rule all the earth from that place. And many elect Gentiles from all over the world will come to Jesus in Jerusalem, so “He may teach [them] His ways and that [they] may walk in His paths.” Jesus will govern even the “strong nations afar off,” and none of the nations will “learn war anymore.” Peace will cover the entire earth at last, and Jesus will equitably grant homes and lands to all the surviving

elect remnant, so “they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree.” Nor will Jesus rule through terrorism, like the humanists. Therefore, “no one shall make them afraid.” Rather, Jesus will teach all His disciples, including literally all living souls on earth, to responsibly and justly love one another, so all “will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever,” doing all their works according to His will and in His power. So all their works will be effective, bearing only good fruits.

Here we once more see that there will indeed be a temple in the “latter days” when Jesus returns, because “the mountain of the house of [Yahweh] shall be established,” and many Gentiles shall go to the “house of the God of Jacob” on that mountain. So this clearly refers to the Jewish temple in Jerusalem during that time, after the Messiah comes to rule the earth. Here it also tells us why the people will come to Jesus in Zion, to the temple where He sits. They will come to be taught “His ways” and trained to “walk in His paths.” For this is what Yahweh promised them, as His New Covenant salvation in the Messiah. This is God’s main purpose for creating the earth and material universe in the first place. In that New Covenant, our Father declared: “I will put My Law within them, and I will write it on their hearts” (Jer. 31:33, ESV). By this, He meant that His Spirit will teach and train our elect spirits in our hearts, so we might become holy as He is holy, so we might become fit to live with Him in heaven forever. For He then added: “And I will be their God, and they shall be My people. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know [Yahweh],’ for they shall all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares [Yahweh]. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more” (Jer. 31:34, ESV).

This is the salvation which Jesus’ Holy Spirit is now working inside His elect daily, to save us from slavery to ignorance, lies and sins. Our Father sent His very Spirit in the body of the Messiah’s flesh to walk among us so we might learn from Him, so Jesus can prepare us to live with Him at home, in heaven. Here again, through Micah, God tells us that the Messiah’s teaching of His laws and ways will also accompany His acts of judging, since biblical judges were the teachers of sinners, with the hope that sinners might repent into the truths they taught. Thus, during the millennium, we will go to the Messiah Jesus in Jerusalem, “that He may teach us His ways and that we might walk in His paths. For out of Zion shall go forth the Law, and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem. He shall judge between many peoples, and shall decide disputes for strong nations far away” (4:2-3a, ESV).

A biblical judge’s main role is to counsel, teach and train offenders, so they might learn to walk in wise, just, equitable love, just like their spirits’ Father. And a judge begins by teaching sinners that their victims are their beloved siblings in the family of humankind, whom they need to respect and serve in their Father’s name. Then this knowledge and wisdom helps elect sinners see the harm they caused, so their godly sorrow over what they did to their beloved siblings might lead to repentance from their own ignorant, hurtful ways, into God’s truth, into wise solutions which may heal wounds, repair damages and restore losses through their good works, through their fruits of repentance. As for the non-elect, this kind of judging also exposes their loveless motives and intentions, and how they will not repent. Thus, the only recourse of a biblical judge is to apply the penalty of the Law, in the same measure as the sin, so the judge might discourage the non-elect from sinning again, so he may protect the innocent. But Jesus is the final Judge of all the world. So, during the end times, He will broadcast His truths into all the world. Then the elect will repent into those truths, while those truths expose the lovelessness of the non-elect. Then, once the truths separate the elect from the non-elect in heart and mind, Jesus will destroy all the unrepentant murdering non-elect with His plagues in the end times. Then Jesus will come to walk with us again, to continue teaching for repentance into the truth, to bear fruits of peace and justice in His loving elect spirits who will inherit the whole earth.

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

The Word of God repeatedly reveals all this to us. Yet churches have always ignored these truths and these ways of God. Instead, churches choose adversarial, condemning, Roman judges, who seek unjust revenge even against the elect who fulfill God’s laws, but break the laws of their unjust human gods. Furthermore, God’s Law never set any minimum penalty for any sin, but allowed total forgiveness of all sins through true repentance into the truths, in ways that bore real fruits of healing, repairing and restoration. But churches wanted Roman laws with minimum and severe penalties that outweighed the sins committed, all enforced through terrorism. They preferred to rule through an artificially manufactured fear of their human gods in unjust hierarchical class systems. But, since God remains the King who made and owns them, only He bears the right to make all their laws, and all must interpret all His laws according to the ways that He Himself interprets all of His own laws.

From the beginning, God has always been a just Judge who has taught all His people the principles of a loving, abundant life through faith in Him. Then He has always completely forgiven the sinners who fully repented into those truths when He taught them, without imposing any penalties on them for their sins. Only when it was not possible for Him and His true judges to lead a sinner into true repentance, did He and His true judges actually punish the sinner. Even then, God and His judges gave sinners time to digest the truths they taught and repent. They also gave lesser sentences to the unrepentant sinners, who were unable or unwilling to hear them if those sinners had less evil motives and intentions, when those sinners did not repent but acted through ignorance, deception or coercion. God and His true judges only handed out the maximum penalty allowed by the Law to those who willfully, deliberately and ruthlessly sinned, with a full knowledge of all the harm they did to others.

Our Creator and Owner, the Father of all elect spirits, dwells in the human body of Jesus, and He therefore appointed Jesus to be the final and chief Judge of all humans on the earth and in heaven (John 5:22). So, during the end times, Jesus will judge all the earth, but as a biblical kind of judge, not as a Roman kind of judge. And almost all human spirits will be awakened during the end times, after His truths and His Gospel have been proclaimed throughout the world. Thus, all human spirits will choose to either to love or hate God, and will either repent into the truth or war against God. All the elect and non-elect will divide from one another. Thus, after Jesus has safely separated His elect from the non-elect, and His elect will no longer make any inner covenants with the non-elect, He will judge the world, in a way where His elect do not bitterly resent His judgments. Jesus will justly sentence all the loveless, murdering, unrepentant non-elect to death, since all will want to be their own gods, willing to utter any lie or commit any sin just so they can make themselves feel like gods.

Jesus will remove Satan, and his legion of demonic spirits, and all his non-elect offspring from the world. But the surviving elect, no matter how sinful they might have been previously, will be taught by Jesus and brought into repentance, so all might bear good fruits of that repentance. His kind of just judgment shall bring peace to all the world, and “neither shall they learn war anymore.” Jesus will train all to purposefully apply His wise, just, equitable and responsible kind of love. None shall ever be able to exploit others again, nor live in self-indulgent luxury while others starve or go homeless. None will be manipulated by money or coerced by the terrorism of Satan’s world order.

During the millennium, our King and High Priest will grant each man stewardship over a permanent home in a pleasant land, where no one who will ever threaten to take that home away from him nor make him or his family afraid. There will be no woman or child left in poverty or in need of any kind. All will have their basic needs for food, shelter, work, creativity, education and abundant life provided for them, so all can freely love and be loved. And there will be no more loveless ones to take that life from them. The almighty God, the Messiah Jesus, shall command these things to be done, and there will be no one able to oppose His will on earth. It shall be done as it is in heaven.

Currently, very few elect spirits listen for the Creator’s real Holy Spirit, or His actual truth, which the Bible describes. Not even the best and most loving rabbis, pastors or priests of the most biblical synagogues or churches in our lands desire Him or His real truths. “For all the peoples walk each in the name of its god,” and each group usually worships a human god as its most “wise” god. From birth, the peoples train each soul to worship oneself as one’s ultimate god, as the sole creator of one’s own “success” and destiny, through one’s own fictional “free will.” Yet, at the same same time, they contradict this feeble doctrine by talking about how genetics, environment, education and nurturing shape the thoughts of the soul, which they define Platonically, as that which consists entirely of the mind of flesh. Most refuse to acknowledge the “genetics,” environment, education and nurturing of their own spirits, which affect their life choices far more deeply than anything else. Each esteems and serves oneself or some other human god, in blind obedience to the irrational doctrines taught by the religion of humanism, primarily by Roman sects of that religion, because Rome completed its conquering of the entire world during last couple of centuries. The works of humanists cause almost all their suffering and deaths, wars and tragedies, homelessness and starvation, and now have even threatened the existence of all life on earth. Yet they love that religion, love their human gods and hierarchical class systems, love their Roman vengeance and injustice, and fight to the death for it.

But Jesus is coming to deliver His elect from that stupid religion. Jesus will kill all of those lying and murdering Roman caesars like Hitler and Trump, all who promise to save us by empowering even more psychopaths and unjust judges, by stealing even more from us, by making more of those whom they artificially designate as “inferiors” into homeless and desperate victims of injustice, by even more ruthlessly beating and murdering their “evil” opponents who speak the truths and wisdom of God. The Holy Spirit of Jesus is teaching our spirits to worship the one true Creator, Yahweh in the Messiah Jesus, in truth, so we might repent into that truth. We are being taught and trained to trust in Him more than in our own weak strength, ignorant intellect and deluded courage. Jesus turns our esteem towards Him alone, so we might serve Him alone. We are all slow, inept disciples. Yet Jesus will not fail to complete this work in us. Jesus will revive us in the end times, and we will see His return to rule over all the earth as our only honest, just, wise, loving King, as our only Head Teacher.

When Jesus returns to be our ruling King and teaching High Priest, He will gather the most strong and faithful elect to Himself in Zion, those able to drive away all who dare to oppose the truths and wisdom of Yahweh, all who lead others away from a truly abundant life of God-like love. His Word says He will gather and unite, in an assembly of permanent homes near to Himself, the mild and gentle souls, all whom the aggressive offspring of Satan oppressed, murdered or drove away, the common and impoverished souls whom the “mighty” elite of Satan’s world order cast out into the wilderness and treated like odious garbage. Clearly, the mild and gentle will receive this blessing from our God Jesus, and will inherit the whole earth, just as He taught in the Beatitudes (Mat. 5:5).

For the mild and gentle who pursue the truths and wisdom of Jesus are the true foundation of all that is good and loving in the world. Those afflicted in their flesh by God’s discipline, for the sake of their spirits, shall be taught and trained by Jesus Himself on that day. The lame, who could not bear the weight of vain loads yoked to them by a carnal world, will stand upright without burdens, next to Him. These will be the only survivors of His end-time plagues upon the world. The self-proclaimed great ones and leaders of Satan’s world order, who now reject or exploit these souls for money, who build their war machines against Him, will all perish. Many of those cast off and rejected by this current world order are the Father’s children, and the spirits that He created in them will be so strong that they will never end. Through their hearts, a people like them shall rule the earth with Jesus until its very end, then govern the greater reality of heaven forever, laboring together with their Father and

oldest Brother. And elect Jews shall be “the tower of the flock,” a “hill” raised above all God’s elect, priests of the priesthood of God. They will be all that they were meant to be in the beginning, when Yahweh promised Abraham, “in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed” (Gen. 12:3, ESV).

Micah 7:7-20 (ESV): “But as for me, I will look to [Yahweh]; I will wait for the God of

my salvation; my God will hear me . Rejoice not over me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall

[Yahweh] because I have sinned against Him, until He pleads my cause and executes

judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light; I shall look upon His vindication .

“Then my enemy [Assyria] will see, and shame will cover her who said to me, ‘Where is

[Yahweh] your God?’ My eyes will look upon her; now she will be trampled down like the

mire of the streets. A day for the building of your walls [i.e., Israel’s walls]! In that day the

boundary [of Israel] shall be far extended. In that day they will come to you [i.e., to Israel], from

Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt to the River, from sea to sea and from

mountain to mountain. But the earth will be desolate [destroyed with very few survivors] because

of its inhabitants, for the fruit of their deeds.

“Shepherd Your people with Your staff, the flock of Your inheritance, who dwell alone in a

forest in the midst of a garden land; let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of

old. As in the days when you [Israel] came out of the land of Egypt, I will show them

marvelous things. The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall lay their

hands on their mouths; their ears shall be deaf; they shall lick the dust like a serpent, like the

crawling things of the earth; they shall come trembling out of their strongholds; they shall

turn in dread to [Yahweh] our God, and they shall be in fear of you.

“Who is a God like You, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of

His inheritance? He does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in steadfast love .

He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. You will cast

all our sins into the depths of the sea. You will show faithfulness to Jacob and steadfast love

to Abraham, as You have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.”

Again, notice the world-wide scope of this Messianic prophecy from the 8th century BC. God said “the nations … shall turn in dread to Yahweh our God” (7:17). He will act against all Gentiles, all who are not Israel. And “the earth will be desolate because of its inhabitants, for the fruit of their deeds” (7:13, ESV). This is not only about God crushing the sinful Assyrians, and the Israelites who emulated their idolatry and other sins, especially by trampling the poor. This is about the Messiah returning in the end times, to judge the entire world, to correct and redeem both elect Gentiles and Jews from the lies and sins of Assyria, from the vile mother of Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome.

Micah had just described the darkness and confusion of Israel, how the people sat unrepentant in their lies and sins, where injustice became so rampant that “a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.” Micah had reminded them, “Yahweh has told you, O man, what is good. And what does Yahweh require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?” (6:8, ESV). But they did not listen. Therefore, God’s judgments would fall upon their heads and upon the flesh of the Gentiles who taught them those lies. God was sending Assyria to destroy Israel, brutally. Even so, knowing he would soon die with his people, Micah declared, “As for me, I will look to Yahweh; I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me. Rejoice not over me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall rise; when I sit in darkness, Yahweh will be a light to me” (7:7-8, ESV). In God, the spirit cannot die, and the light of God’s truth cannot be overcome by darkness.

Micah would look to Yahweh for his salvation, even after the death of his flesh. He would not try to save himself, but wait for God’s salvation. For he had already done all he could to reason with his people, to save them from God’s wrath. And now it would do no good to flee from the Assyrians, into Egypt, where their deceptions and injustice darkened the soul as much as in Assyria. So Micah would wait for God’s counsel and instruction before he did anything else. For, his faith rested in God alone. The body might fall in death, but his spirit would rise into eternal life, in a new Jerusalem and a new, faithful priesthood of Israel. Although the darkness of pagan lies and delusions surrounded him and overcame his beloved people, God would gather him into the light of all truth, so he might clearly see the greater realities of Yahweh’s spiritual creations all around him in the present moment.

Micah knew that he also sinned against His Maker, that he was both a victim and a victimizer. So he would willingly bear God’s wrath and discipline, as all must. Yet Micah also realized that Yahweh “pleads my cause and executes judgment for me. He will bring me out to the light; I shall look upon His vindication” (7:9, ESV). It would be God Himself, Yahweh in the Messiah Jesus, who would justify and save him, who would enlighten the mind of his spirit and work correcting sanctification for his good and not for his harm. Yahweh’s judgment, for those who loved the loving Creator, will be a redeeming act of teaching and training in the ways of just, equitable love, to bring both the elect Gentiles and Jews out of Satan’s darkness, into the light. Then, after God made him holy through this judgment, even as God Himself is holy, he too would be holy, vindicated of all his sins. And, in the very end, Micah was waiting for the Messiah to come, to save his people of Israel and all the world.

Here God was talking about His current enemy, the enemy of His people in the days of Micah. He was prophesying about Assyria. Yet He also revealed what He would do in a future time, how He would deliver Israel through their Messiah, and His works on earth before and during the millennium of the Messiah’s rule on earth. First, He would make the earth “desolate.” Then Yahweh would send the Messiah and tell Him: “Shepherd Your people with Your staff, the flock of Your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest in the midst of a garden land; let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of old” (Micah 7:14, ESV). After the exodus from Egypt, lands on the eastern side of the Jordan river were occupied by Israel. In Micah’s day, all of Israel was conquered by Assyria. Today, Bashan and Gilead are within Syria and Jordan. But, by the day Jesus returns, forests will grow in Israel and it will become “a garden land,” which shall also include its former lands of Bashan and Gilead too.

Yahweh also told Israel that she would experience “a day for the building of your walls!” (7:11a, ESV). Since there will be no walls during the millennium, because there will be peace on earth and no need for walls, this meant that there would be wars against Israel before He sent the Messiah to Shepherd Israel. And God also told Israel: “In that day, they [the people of Israel] will come to you from Assyria and from the cities of Egypt, up to the River of Egypt, [to the land from] sea to sea, [to the land from] mountain to mountain” (7:11b-12, ALT). Some translations are not clear about this, but it meant that the exiles of Israel, those who fled into Egypt and those taken as captives into Assyria, would return to the borders of Israel. And Israel would include all the lands north of the River of Egypt in the Sinai Peninsula, and from the Mediterranean Sea east to the Sea of Galilee, as well as all the mountains from the south to the north in that land. Right now most Jews from Egypt and the lands previously ruled by Assyria have already returned, and Israel has recovered most of the lands described here by Micah. So this seems to suggest that the Shepherd or Messiah will come soon.

God also told Israel, “As in the days of when you came out of the land of Egypt, I will show you marvelous things” (7:15, ESV). And, when Israel came out of Egypt into the promised land, God gave them victories over some peoples living in those lands, while others actually joined Israel. Then He also told them, “The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; they shall lay their

Page 1428

hands on their mouths; their ears shall be deaf; they shall lick the dust like a serpent, like the crawling things of the earth; they shall come trembling out of their strongholds; they shall turn in dread to Yahweh our God, and they shall be in fear of you” (7:16-17, ESV). So here Yahweh was saying that, in the end times, shame will overtake those from the Assyrian lands, those who became the enemies of Israel and their God. They will think they are mighty, but will become ashamed of their might, silenced and unwilling to hear their commanders who tell them to fight against Israel and against the God of Israel. Instead, they will turn and worship Yahweh of Israel, in fear of Him.

Micah declared that, during the end times: “My enemy will see, and shame will cover her [i.e., Assyria] who said to Me, ‘Where is Yahweh your God?’ My eyes will look upon her; now she will be trampled down like the mire of the streets” (7:10, ESV). This means that the peoples living in what was once the Assyrian Empire “will see” Yahweh during the end times, and repent to the God of Israel. But this will only happen after those peoples are covered with a great shame, and after they have been trampled down like garbage in the streets. Perhaps this means the antisemitic Muslims now in those lands will discover that their faith in the Quran was in vain, possibly because Mecca will somehow be destroyed, or something like that, due to their excessive violence and wars as factious humanists, who even murder one another just like the humanistic fake “Christians” do.

But also notice how this was Micah speaking as a Jew, on behalf of his people of Israel, when he said, “My eye will look upon her,” that is, upon the demise of the Assyrian peoples in the end times. Yet Micah knew he would not remain alive on earth until the end times. So this indicates that Micah knew that his spirit would continue to live and remain awake after his earthly body died. Micah also knew he would receive a new body in heaven, a body made of eternal spiritual substances, with eyes that could see events upon the earth. In the early days, before their Messiah’s first advent, Israel did not say much about the eternal space-time continuum of heaven because, to them, it existed as one reality and kingdom of God together with the earth. However, they always believed in eternal life.

And when Micah said the peoples on Assyrian lands will be “trampled down like the mire of the streets,” we also see, in context, that the Israelites will do this trampling, through the enabling of Yahweh their God. Of course, this does not mean that those Jews will be faithful to God, and will consciously fight in the name of Yahweh. In fact, all the prophecies, including this one, indicate that most Jews will be apostate at this time, and shall remain apostate until Jesus returns. Then God, and His faithful servants, will rebuke Israel for many lies and sins during the end-times as well. Thus, many Jews will also die during the end times. Yet Yahweh will cause Israel to win victories over that “enemy” nonetheless, so He may prepare the land of Israel, and the surrounding region, for His return in the body of the “Shepherd,” His Messiah. And this trampling of their enemy, as well as the conversion of Egypt and the former Assyrian lands, must occur before the Roman beast arrives. For that beast will invade the Middle East as soon he rises to power, through his hatred of God, because those lands are the origins of most monotheistic religions of the world. Thus, not only the formation of Israel as a nation has already occurred, but so have her wars against the formerly Assyrian lands.

In the very end, seven years before the return of Jesus, the fascist Roman beast and his dupes will also say to Israel, “Where is your God?” Those secular humanists will mock the faith of those who believe in the prophecies of God. Furthermore, the beast’s head will always be Babylon, a city in Assyria during the days of Micah. So here we see that Micah does not differentiate between Assyria and the end-time armies of the beast in this prophecy. In Micah’s eyes, God’s enemy during the end times would be Assyria, since the subsequent empires of Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome were all the daughters of Assyria. But, as Daniel and history later revealed, God’s prophecy through Micah was indeed about the humanistic religious empire of Babylon, the ancient enemy of God and Israel.

Page 1429

Last Days Timeline

 

This prophecy through Micah is also clearly about the millennium too, about the days after the “Shepherd” or Messiah comes to rule the world. Their Messiah will bring the “pardoning of iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of His inheritance” (7:18a, ESV), for the Jews to whom He gave the land of Israel. For Yahweh “does not retain His anger forever, because He delights in steadfast love” (7:18b). But notice how Micah did not focus as much on the physical blessings for Israel as he did on God’s spiritual blessings during the millennium: “He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot” (7:19a). Then Micah offered thanksgiving to God: “You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea. You will show faithfulness to Jacob and steadfast love to Abraham, as You have sworn to our fathers from the days of old” (7:19b-20, ESV).

When the Jews repent to Jesus on the day of His return, they shall become His special priests. So Gentiles will go to them for wisdom. Though God hardens many Jewish hearts at this time, causing them to believe foolish myths and false doctrines from blind humanists and from vain teachers among them, they shall be the wisest people on earth during the millennium, because Yahweh in Jesus will dwell among them. Though many are now almost as vile, ruthless and evil as the fake “Christian” Gentile churches, they shall become the most just, equitable and loving people on earth during the millennium, and all their previous sins will be forgotten, like heavy stones cast into the middle of the sea. For the counsel, teaching and training of Jesus will make them into a holy people.

The prayers of Micah asked Yahweh to shepherd the people of a united Israel, to guide them with His staff. He waited on God to teach His twelve tribes from Jacob, and for His elect siblings to hear their God. For, if their spirits would worship their God in a knowledge of the truth, then God would not need to continuously discipline their flesh for all their wicked lies about themselves and others, for all their sins of idolatry and greed, as they trampled the poor. Since the people of Israel existed only to become God’s inner priesthood, and the Creator’s presence would abide in their land, both the people and the land must become holy, set apart solely for Yahweh’s purposes. They and their land was the inheritance of all the elect on earth, so they had to maintain a right relationship with the just and loving Father of all the elect. Therefore, like God Himself, Micah was more grieved and more angry about the lies and sins of Israel than he was about the lies and sins of any other peoples.

Micah prayed that God would cause Israel to dwell in a well-watered garden, where both the people and the land would bear much sweet and nourishing fruit. He wanted his people to live a simple life of peace, in the just and responsibly loving ways of Yahweh. But God would need to work a long process of proofs and discoveries over many lifetimes to finally teach His elect Jews and Gentiles about the wisdom of His ways. So God only promised Micah that Israel would indeed become His faithful priesthood, whom He would faithfully serve, during the end times. Yahweh said He would come to Israel in a body of a Jewish King, as the Shepherd of Israel and the world, in the distant future. In those days, He would show His beloved “marvelous things,” just as He did when He delivered Israel out of Egypt in the days of Moses. He would crush His enemies more thoroughly than He struck down Egypt, with deadly plagues, until not one idolater was left to stand against Him.

The end-time plagues will not be the same as God’s plagues against Egypt. For the plagues against Egypt obliterated faith in Egyptian gods and disproved the doctrines based on the lies of those demonic spirits. But the plagues during the end times will destroy faith in human gods and disprove doctrines based on the lies of those destructive fools. The end-time terrors also will be much greater and on a world-wide scale. Still, the end-time plagues will be sent for the same purpose, to free God’s elect from slavery to the false gods of Satan’s unjust world order, and from their lies. Then God will cast out all who cast Him aside, removing them from life on earth, even all who strutted

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

arrogantly, who proudly displayed the gaudy badges of their sins on their filthy garments, thinking their great sins earned them the right to bully their siblings, to rob, enslave and murder the innocent.

By the day of the Messiah’s return, the people will no longer fawn and bow before their rich and powerful exploiters. For Jesus will slaughter all who plunder the poor, who steal from their siblings through usury or by denying fair wages to the workers that feed them, who lie to others and to themselves about others and about themselves, who plot evil to take advantage of their neighbors. Soon the rich and powerful in Satan’s world order will not only be utterly ashamed of their accolades awarded by fools, of the honor and esteem granted by the blind, but will also perish if they do not repent and cast aside that worthless garbage. Light will shine on this earth. Reality will be exposed. God will once more call good “good” and evil “evil.” No longer will any human beings be allowed to call evil “good,” nor good “evil.” God’s power will ensure that truth shall be shouted from the rooftops, so His people will no longer be deceived and deluded. Blasphemous words and godless works will no longer be praised and esteemed, but will be condemned by all. And all will cover their mouths in the fear of God, regretting any of their slanderous lies against Him and against His people.

People on earth will no longer study vain humanistic philosophies or any other false religions, except out of curiosity as to why fools could have possibly believed such obvious lies. For truths about the realities of God’s physical and spiritual creations will be made evident to all who want to know them, and true science will flourish, without any humanistic liars to corrupt that knowledge. Then all those who study those truths will be deaf to the words of ignorant self-worshiping sages. Liars will no longer stand tall as the artificially designated elite over artificially designated “inferior” masses, deemed to be less human than themselves. For all will know that they all depend on God and upon one another to remain alive. So the previous elite in Satan’s world order will either crawl in shame on the ground, to repent from their vile arrogance and sins, or perish by the day that Jesus returns.

During the end times, the strongholds of humanists will become prisons with guards to protect them from outsiders, not to keep them inside. For those liars will need to flee from God’s wrath and from the peoples of God’s freed lands. They will seldom slither out of their defended properties, except to steal food and supplies like starving snakes. They will be forced to face the judgments of our God Jesus, until they either repent or die. Then Jesus will arrive to justly rule the whole world, and His servants will faithfully administer His loving, just, equitable laws and ways. Therefore, even today, let God’s reprobate elect, the arrogant ones who practice injustice through the terrorism of worldly weapons and financial systems, for their own gain and for the vain glory of Satan’s world order, begin to rethink their beliefs and practices, then repent into the truth. Let them tremble before God.

God gave this message to the elect, especially to those living in the end times. And He gave these words so that those with spirits created in His own image might repent, so they might rightly serve Him according to His intended meanings of His words. Then our God Jesus will grant His power to those repentant elect. He will make them able to build up and establish His just and loving kingdom on earth. Because Jesus already came the first time, so we would be able to enter a fully restored relationship with Him, so we could receive His Holy Spirit, He will grant us this power even now, in our day. Yet the end times are almost upon us. So the time for the elect to repent is growing shorter. And, whether or not an elect soul repents, Jesus will soon establish His just, equitable and loving kingdom throughout the earth, and it will stand for the entire millennium, until the earth ends. But the elect who do not repent, who stubbornly cling to the religion of humanism, will not live to see it.

This prophecy is for “the remnant of His inheritance,” for the elect of God who survive the great tribulations of God’s plagues during the eras of the sixth and seventh seals, for those who will inherit

the lands on earth and in heaven forever after that. Before Micah died, God wanted him to provide this last teaching, this word of comforting counsel to the beleaguered Jewish and Gentile children of the heavenly Father. And this teaching from God was also about Himself, about His own soul and attributes. God wanted His offspring to know that they could approach the Father of their spirits, with trust and confidence, and rely on His steadfast, immutable, everlasting love, even though they sinned through their minds and bodies of flesh. For Yahweh is not like the gods men invented for their false synagogues or fake churches, not like the gods of any other religion. The real Creator of all existence serves His creations, and longs to do good works for the spirits of His elect children.

Our God will continue to save us from lies and sins until the end of the judgment day, long after the deaths of our bodies, and will eventually teach every one of us to repent into a knowledge of the truth and reality He created in the beginning. On earth, He must often work repentance through the painful discipline of our flesh to produce godly sorrow in our spirits, a deep and inward regret over our sins. But He only does this because He is not willing to lose even the least of all His children to the vain lies of this world. Yes, He will cause pain, but only a necessary suffering that heals infected spirits, which makes weak infantile spirits stronger and more loving. Loss and death for the flesh will enrich and quicken spirits for eternity. Because our God causes repentance—because He turns His children away from lies and sin, towards truth and just love; because He teaches and trains elect spirits to do the works of subjective righteousness spontaneously through God-like love—it gives Him the right to justly pardon all their iniquities and forget all their transgressions. If God did not do these works to correct and educate our spirits, we could not be justified and saved into heaven. It is only because He can assure that elect sinners will completely stop sinning and remain righteous for eternity, that elect sinners can be justly forgiven for their whole lifetimes of sin and dwell in heaven.

Naturally, the core nature of God’s Spirit, and every truly loving, just, holy and pure elect spirit, causes it to automatically become enraged when it sees deliberate lies or sins. Every holy heart becomes deeply vexed by lies and sins, whether or not there is peer pressure and encouragement to hate those lies and sins. And it is a lie to say that God does not grow angry when He sees the lies and sins committed by those who walk in His name, even over their sins of omission, over their willful negligence towards the needs of others. Since the Creator is loving, just, holy and pure, His wrath is always stirred when He sees lies or sins, and especially those falsely done in His name, or those which cause His own children to lie or sin. So, considering how badly the false synagogues and fake churches have been lying and sinning, then causing His elect to do the same, they cannot possibly expect to escape God’s wrath during the end times. Yes, God will destroy Satan’s world order. But He will also crush those who falsely teach, prophesy and sin in His name, since they also belong to Satan and the world order. All loveless, lying humanistic religions of the world will perish in the end times, even if they think their “free will” has ensured their salvation and bought a ticket into heaven.

However, God never clings to His anger very long, not even His wrath against the deceiving and murdering non-elect. Instead, God simply decides the most beneficial course of action He will take against a lie or a sin, and when to carry out His plan. Then He moves on to other matters, although He never forgets nor fails to complete his plans against evil. All His plans against lies and sins will definitely be carried out, in full. And God makes no mistakes when He forms His plans, nor forgets even the tiniest details. Furthermore, every plan of God is totally effective in accomplishing His predestined intentions, whether it is to cause repentance in His elect or to eternally prevent the wicked works of the non-elect from ever reaching into heaven’s lands. Literally all the lies and sins of all the elect will indeed be corrected, and literally all will repent into the truth by the end of the last day. But literally all the non-elect will safely cast into hell for eternity, beyond an impassible

 

Page 1432

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

boundary. So literally all lies and sins will be extinguished in the end, before any can enter heaven’s mainland, and not one sinner on earth shall escape the deserved consequences of their lies and sins.

This is good news for the elect, since they shall all eventually learn and grow into completion and perfection, even as an indirect consequence of the lies they were taught to believe and the sins they were taught to commit. But it is very bad news for the non-elect, who intentionally taught those lies and sins to God’s elect. For those non-elect will all suffer the fires of hell, each in direct proportion to the pain caused by their spirits’ wicked intentions and motives, each in a darkness as deep as the lies and delusions their evil hearts loved on earth. In hell, the non-elect shall not find a single solid reality created by God. Nothing pure and good will exist anywhere in hell, absolutely nothing those wanna-be gods can exploit, harm or kill to make themselves feel big and powerful. Only the Father’s own children, whose elect spirits were created in His image, will inherit the true essence of all His good creations when they enter their homes in the New Jerusalem of heaven, after all permanently and irrevocably repent into His just ways of His “steadfast” and totally unconditional kind of love.

Therefore, through the wise teachings of Jesus on the judgment day, God’s anger against the lies and sins of His elect shall forever cease. For literally all the elect will repent into those truths which Jesus shall teach. Then He will forgive and fully restore His loving relationship with them all, and will restore more than hundred times what each victim of lies and sins had lost on earth. As for the just penalty that accusers like Satan might require for the lies and sins of God’s children, the body of our God Jesus has already paid that in full. The flesh of their eldest Brother, the Messiah, paid it on the cross. Thus, absolutely nothing more will be owed to justice, regarding any of the elect who have ever sinned against God or God’s properties. Jesus paid for all, and will justify all by teaching and training all to become perfectly and completely righteous and loving forever after their forgiveness.

Every ounce of revenge that Satan and his non-elect brood could ever demand for any sins of God’s elect was brutally carried out upon that sinless body of our Messiah in Zion on that Passover day long ago. Every curse from our accusers was nailed to that tree, to that cross of torture designed by the four kingdoms of Satan’s humanistic religion. So they can accuse and rail against elect sinners all they like, even from hell. But the sinless body of our utterly holy God Jesus took more of the painful blows and excruciating torture of His own flesh than any of them could justly demand against His elect. Our God Jesus allowed His absolutely sinless body to suffer and die as a substitute for each sinful lifetime in the flesh of each elect soul’s name which He had written in His book, so He could justly complete and perfect each one on the last day. Since Jesus paid the price for our entire lives in the flesh, from the moment of birth until the moment of death, and will then justify us all on the last day, nothing more can be required for our right to inherit our eternal homes in our Father’s estate.

In addition to all this, when we enter heaven after the judgment day, Jesus will restore virtually everything of any real value that every elect soul lost on earth through lies and sins, and grant each one more than a hundred times its worth. Thus, since we have been forgiven to restore our eternal relationship with God through Jesus’ death on the cross, and are now being fully justified through the resurrection of the flesh of our God Jesus, and also will receive a hundredfold of all we might lose on earth, what genuine worries can we possibly have? Now we can tell all our bitter accusers, even Satan himself, that Jesus already paid the full price of all our sins, then will soon complete and perfect us for our justification. We can proclaim to Satan and all his servants that, after our spirits finish repenting into all the truths Jesus will teach us on the last day, we shall be free from any and all the condemnation and vengeful penalties they demand. And our freedom will be just, since there will be no need for any penalty from sinners who have truly repented. The one and only just purpose of any penalty is to act as a deterrent, to turn sinners away from sin. And the only ones who need to

Page 1433

Last Days Timeline

 

be deterred are those who want to sin. But God will cause us to repent into the truth, through a hatred of lies and sins. Our God Jesus will turn the whole focus of our spirits to what is loving and just.

Even today, Jesus is calling all His elect to walk according to all that His Holy Spirit is now teaching to their spirits. And soon the elect will learn to stop resisting His Spirit, to heed the truths He teaches about themselves and others, about life and faith. Thus, there soon will be no need for the terror of deterrents against lies and sins, not for the elect in any truly Christian lands, nor in the millennium. And deterrents have never worked very well for anyone at any time. Yes, God’s written law and its penalties are for the lawless non-elect who cannot truly repent, to deter at least the cowardly and those with some foresight. But the teaching and training of elect spirits, about the truth and wisdom of justly loving righteousness, which they all inherently desire, has always worked far better in stopping lies and sins. As for revenge from human souls, it is has always been a sin, since it is solely an attribute of the amoral flesh and of loveless non-elect spirits. So vengeance can never possibly accomplish anything good. Therefore, all the elect souls we ever sinned against will not seek revenge after the truth has been taught to them. Only the non-elect will unjustly desire revenge or dare to call that revenge justice. So the elect can ignore them, and build up God’s kingdom with effective justice.

This is why our God Jesus turns the focus of our spirits to His teaching and training, why He calls us all to become His disciples. Our teaching High Priest and only true Head Teacher wants to prepare us, so we might faithfully serve Him and His creations. This is the only way He can justly “tread our iniquities under foot,” the only way He can justly disregard our lies and sins. For God cannot be called just if pays for our lifetimes of sins, yet lets us remain lying and sinful. It is only because God is writing His Law upon our hearts, by teaching and training our spirits to be loving and just, it is only because He is setting us apart for His good purposes, that He can justify Himself, so no one can ever accuse Him of being unjust. And He also justifies us by His works upon our spirits, so none can accuse us of remaining sinful. Only through these works of our God Jesus upon our spirits can our relationship with Him be fully restored. And He can do these works even today, at this very moment.

Furthermore, since literally all the critical works of our salvation are completed and perfected by the almighty and all-knowing God, and every other existing entity is infinitely weaker and has far less knowledge than God, we can logically conclude that no entity will ever be able to stop or interfere with our salvation. We cannot even stop our own salvation, nor interfere with it, since our wills of our eternal spirits were created by the wise God and are now being shaped by Him, without any possibility of us ever being able to outsmart or overpower God. No existing entity is able to remove God’s forgiveness, which His voluntary worked on the cross and grants us through His completely unearned and unmerited grace alone, to eternally restore our relationship with Him. Our temporary moments of sinful thinking, usually caused by lies entering our feeble minds of flesh, make our elect spirits to feel separated from God. But even those thoughts of our infantile spirits in flesh on earth were predestined, and last only until God chooses to rebuke and teach our spirits, until He chooses to cause our repentance into the truth. So now let us trust our God Jesus for our salvation, with the full confidence that “He will again have compassion on us,” and save us through His “steadfast love.”

Micah’s spirit knew this salvation, because Yahweh’s Holy Spirit revealed it to his spirit. And the real Creator God, who named Himself Yahweh, spoke to the spirit of Micah, not any other spirit that called itself Yahweh, nor any other god whom men named Yahweh. So we can trust this prophecy granted by God to Micah, and Micah’s short prayer of faith, expressing thanksgiving and his trust in God to do all He promised to do for all His elect children who have lived or ever will live on earth.

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

God promised to “cast all our sins into the depths of the sea,” even into the eternally burning sea of fires in hell, together with all who prompted and caused those sins, and where those sins will never again be found by any of us. The memories of forgiven lies and sins may remain with us, so we might also remember the lessons which taught us that God’s loving righteousness is infinitely greater that those lies and sins. But neither the losses caused by those lies and sins, which God Himself will fully restore, nor the guilt and condemnation of those lies and sins, which Jesus washed away on the cross, can affect our salvation ever again, not after the omnipotent and omniscient God has dealt with those lies and sins. Yahweh, our Creator God in Jesus, has freed us. Literally all our lifetimes of lying sins have been cast off of our spirits through the works of our Messiah, who is God. And He promised to show faithfulness to Jacob and steadfast love to Abraham, as well as to all the chosen Gentile children of the Gentile named Abraham. God Himself brings literally all the elect into the tent of Abraham and into Jacob’s family of priests, whom God Himself raised up to serve His living creations. God Himself makes us more like Himself daily, to loving serve life, together with Him.

Since time exists only in God and is entirely relative to God’s thoughts alone, God has already fully completed this salvation through the Messiah Jesus. But, in our human perception of time here on earth, Jesus will soon return to rule the world from Jerusalem. All the elect who ever existed on earth will soon experience and learn from the works of Jesus during the end times. Jesus will show us that the works of the humanists are folly, that their power is powerless and their money is a delusion. Jesus will revive all the elect, gather all into His New Covenant priesthood. First He will save all the Gentile elect from the deceptions of the beast. Then He will save all the Jewish elect. And, after He sets His feet in Jerusalem, He will surely bring all the elect Jews home to their land in Israel, from everywhere on earth, granting each one a safe home, where each can dwell until the earth ends. But, even after the earth ends, all the elect will receive their true and permanent homes in heaven, forever.

We all have eternal spirits, and the minds of our spirits know God exists and that all this is true. Yet the spirit of Satan and the spirits of his dupes try to suppress the thoughts of our spirits in our souls, try to make us think only with the minds of our flesh. And it is easy to make foolish minds of flesh think spiritual realities are a myth, a fairy tale. For, to the temporary and always dying flesh, nothing is eternal and nothing exists beyond the natural limits and laws in which God has bound all material existence. And only God controls these perceptions of material existence, not us. So, when the spirits of liars focus all of our soul’s attention on the temporary and very limited nature of the flesh, our minds of flesh believe those spirits, when they say nothing spiritual exists. But facts are immutable, and realities never stop existing. Our spirits love, hate, oppose thoughts of the flesh, concede to the thoughts of the flesh and think in ways far beyond anything the mind of flesh can even imagine. So our spirits are eternal creations of the real God, of the non-material Being or Spirit who began all material beginnings and will end them all. Spirits possess the only minds capable of perceiving material existence, the only consciousness of both eternal spiritual realities and all the not-so-real temporary material realities. Therefore, we allow the minds of our spirits to perceive both spiritual and material realities, and think about them, then also listen for the voice of our Creator’s Spirit.

So we walk according to the minds of our spirits, not according to the minds of our flesh. And the Holy Spirit of our God Jesus will indeed save our eternal spirits from the lies and sins of our flesh, even from all that our infantile spirits experience on earth for the education of our spirits. His Spirit will fulfill the very innermost desires of our spirits in our hearts. He will fulfill our core destinies, the aspirations that our spirits could never fully realize on earth. God will not forsake His elect children created in His image. All His elect will know the real purpose for their creation, to love and serve God, to love and serve one another, to love and serve all His creations as He loves and serves them.

And, on earth, the elect will see their God come to serve them in Jesus the Messiah. Jesus will return to justly and lovingly guide them as their King, and counsel them as their High Priest, as the one and only Head Teacher of every man. The Gentile elect will serve all life on earth, and responsibly gather all resources on earth for the equitable sustenance of all life. All the Jewish elect will return to Israel again, and God will never again abandon His forever faithful inner priesthood to lies or to enemies.

All elect Jews will serve the world beside Jesus, and all elect Gentiles will enter Judah, the tribe of the Messiah, because God’s love is steadfast and His faithfulness is unbreakable. Of course, in his own lifetime, Micah did not see these promises fulfilled. But, because God’s Holy Spirit told his spirit about these future events, he knew the future generations of his people would see God grant all His promises to them, in that appointed time. And that is why he spoke—not for his own sake, but through his love and concern for the elect of future generations. Micah’s spirit knew and loved those elect spirits existing in the future times of the earth, because earthly time could not separate their spirits from his spirit. Micah knew and loved those future elect souls better than he knew the souls of many of his contemporaries. For spiritual time and space is not like material time and space. And the opposite is true as well. We, the awakened elect of those future generations also know and love the elect spirit of Micah, as a dear brother who still lives and is still awake. For Micah still prays for us.

Micah’s spirit did not die, but remains more alive and awake than most spirits now living in flesh on earth. Remember, the real God is his God, and God is the God of the living, not the dead. Thus, our spirits’ love for Micah does not exist simply because we read words written by him. It is not because we perceive his imperfect writing style and character of his mind of flesh, which physically recorded the concepts that God told his spirit to write down for us. We do not love him for the deeds of his flesh. Rather, our spirits love his spirit. Our spirits see how his loving spirit earnestly sought God’s revelations for our sakes, and how God put that desire in him. The real reason we know and love him is simply because God made his spirit a true brother of our spirits, because his spirit loves God and God’s truth in the same way our spirits do. And God reveals to our spirits that his spirit is our living brother, that he now lives as a child of the same Father and bears a multitude of the same attributes.

Our spirits sense and see Micah and all the other elect spirits from earth’s past, present and future, because all spirits exist in the spiritual realm, which is heaven. Just because the minds of our spirits perceive the flow of time on earth does not mean that our spirits exist only upon the earth and only in that timeline. So our own spirits are fully aware of Micah. Our spirits deeply and fully identify with him, more than with most of our contemporaries. Our spirits cling to the same innermost thoughts, hopes and passions that his spirit once did, but has now found. All the wakened elect who ever lived in all history share and cling to these same desires, which Jesus will fulfill. Micah is one of many souls whom the awakened elect can deeply love, more than the angels, more than all other creatures on earth, and more than the elect with slumbering spirits, who have been inebriated by the bad wine that Satan’s world order pours down their throats. The more awake an elect spirit might be, the more it bears the image of the Father, and the more it is one with Jesus’ Spirit and other awakened spirits.

Zechariah 8:1-23 (ESV): “And the word of [Yahweh] of hosts came, saying, ‘Thus says

[Yahweh] of hosts: I am jealous for Zion with great jealousy, and I am jealous for her with

great wrath. Thus says [Yahweh]: I have returned to Zion and will dwell in the midst of

Jerusalem, and Jerusalem shall be called the faithful city, and the mountain of [Yahweh] of

hosts, the holy mountain. Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: Old men and old women shall again

sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with staff in hand because of great age. And the streets of

the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in its streets.

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

“Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: If it is marvelous in the sight of the remnant of this people in

those days, should it also be marvelous in My sight, declares [Yahweh] of hosts? Thus says

[Yahweh] of hosts: behold, I will save My people from the east country and from the west

country, and I will bring them to dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. And they shall be My

people, and I will be their God, in faithfulness and in righteousness.’

“Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: ‘Let your hands be strong, you who in these days have been

hearing these words from the mouth of the prophets who were present on the day that the

foundation of the house of [Yahweh] of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. For

before those days there was no wage for man or any wage for beast, neither was there any

safety from the foe for him who went out or came in, for I set every man against his

neighbor. But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as in the former days,

declares [Yahweh] of hosts. For there shall be a sowing of peace. The vine shall give its

fruit, and the ground shall give its produce, and the heavens shall give their dew. And I will

cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things. And as you have been a byword

of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and

you shall be a blessing . Fear not, but let your hands be strong .’

“For thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: ‘As I purposed to bring disaster to you when your fathers

provoked Me to wrath, and I did not relent, says [Yahweh] of hosts, so again have I purposed

in these days to bring good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear not . These are the

things that you shall do: Speak the truth to one another; render in your gates judgments

that are true and make for peace; do not devise evil in your hearts against one another ,

and love no false oath , for all these things I hate, declares [Yahweh ].’

“And the word of [Yahweh] of hosts came to me, saying, ‘Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: The

fast of the fourth month and the fast of the fifth and the fast of the seventh and the fast of the

tenth shall be to the house of Judah seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts.

Therefore love truth and peace.

“Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: Peoples [Gentiles] shall yet come, even the inhabitants of many

cities. The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, “Let us go at once to entreat the

favor of [Yahweh] and to seek [Yahweh] of hosts; I myself am going.” Many peoples and

strong nations shall come to seek [Yahweh] of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat the favor of

[Yahweh]. Thus says [Yahweh] of hosts: In those days ten men from the nations of every

tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, “Let us go with you, for we have heard

that God is with you.”’”

Here God gave us passionate and strong commands and prophecies. And He had Zechariah begin each with, “thus says Yahweh,” to emphasize that these words were indeed from Him, not merely words of men. Our Creator wanted us to pay close attention and carefully heed His counsel. For He personally declared this in His own name, from the core of His Being, from His heart in irrevocable and unconditional ways, in ways that men or even angels cannot alter. God was telling us how we will fulfill His Law when He comes in His Messiah, how we will live and speak in the millennium.

When God says He is “jealous for Zion with great jealousy,” it means that all His love is passionate, that His love guards His beloved with zeal, anger, care and cherishing. So He will not allow the place of His presence with His bride in the temple on Mount Zion to be shared with other gods. The whole of God’s Spirit in Zion will be respected and loved, because His elect bear His name and His

 

Page 1437

Spirit within them, which He graciously granted to them, to all His children born in His image upon the earth. So He will judge and condemn the names and spirits of other gods corrupting their lives.

No other god will put its lying name on His family, nor place its unjust and unholy spirit beside their spirits and His own Holy Spirit in the hearts of His elect. Yahweh will not let demons or humans pose as messengers of light, to lead His beloved ones astray, from His truth and the abundant life of loving and being loved that He provides for them. God will not permit the gods of false synagogues and fake churches to abuse His name, to speak lies and deceive His people through His name. If they try, the almighty Creator Yahweh will judge and severely condemn them, will cast them into an ever deepening darkness of delusions until they either repent or fall blind into the darkness of hell itself.

The delusions which God sends to those who do not spontaneously love and seek the truth, to those who refuse to repent from lies and sins, inevitably leads to strife and wars, until those dishonest and vain souls destroy themselves. At the present time, many demons and wanna-be human gods draw God’s elect into countless worthless religions, although almost all of them are factions of only one religion called humanism. And those lying spirits offer experiences that distract the people from the real truth and real solutions to their problems, through self-esteeming feelings of vain glory or brief moments of euphoria in their minds of flesh. Those deceivers manufacture fake wonders to convince their dupes that their lies seem true, good and holy. But those lies enslave them. For these false gods want their dupes to bow before them and blindly serve them, through destructive and unjust worship.

God has watched as false gods employ cruel trickery to drive His children into frenzied charges against imagined enemies, until they trample one another to death. Then those deceivers cause them to flee in panic from those same delusions, through mazes with no exits. They whip their slaves to endlessly march nowhere with all their might, until they collapse into submission, never reaching any kind of real peace, healing and abundant life. Their lies cause their dupes to waste their strength, resources, time and entire lives accomplishing nothing, except to fill the wallets of psychopathic human gods posing as false prophets and false teachers from God’s kingdom, but serve only Satan’s kingdom. Their “light” is always darkness, emotional tugs at the senseless desires of the flesh, to lure vacant souls away from just, pure, God-like love, away from the fruitful, meaningful and gratifying lives they could live by heeding their real God, the true Holy Spirit of the Messiah Jesus.

Therefore, is it any wonder that our loving God grows deeply jealous, “with great wrath,” while He watches Satan and his loveless offspring transform His potentially loving and just children into ruthless, self-destructive dupes? God’s rage builds as He sees fake gods drag His beloved into the emptiness of their own darkness. And God is capable of expressing His anger in very many and very deadly ways. Also, none are innocent, none can plead ignorance. For the attributes and ways of our Creator have been revealed to all. And Jesus warned us that, in the end times, Satan would send his demonic peddlers of “signs and wonders” into the world. So now those slanderers and deceivers call beleaguered souls, whom they themselves made desperate, to reject truths from God and join them in their vacant, carnal and useless pursuits, to “experience” their great flesh-intriguing shows, their distractions from realities. Those enslavers, who are themselves enslaved by greed and lies, now aggressively sell their destructive chains of darkness as a great light, to those already in darkness.

Soon, on the day He returns, our God Jesus will crush all those unrepentant and deliberate deceivers into dust, to free His family from the unrelenting grasp of Satan’s filthy claws. So God, through Zechariah, once again prophesied about the end times, about the very last days when He in His Messiah would return, and what His reign during the millennium will look like. And He not only told us what an abundant life would be in those times after His return, but also what it could be now,

 

Page 1438

if our spirits would heed His counsel today. His prophecy begins with His declaration of jealousy over the way His beloved children abandoned their potentially fruitful lives to follow lies and false fathers to their own destruction. Then He proclaimed that He, Yahweh, has “returned to Zion and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem,” even then, in Zechariah’s time, in about 520 BC, when the second temple was constructed. Actually, Yahweh is a Spirit who is always nearby. He has never left His children. But we loose sight of Him when see only with our eyes and minds of flesh, when we shut the eyes of our spirits to resist the calling of His Holy Spirit. So God “returns” when He wakes our lethargic and sleeping elect spirits and opens our eyes to see Him again. This inner awakening is what God did for some of His Jewish elect, like Zechariah, in those days long ago. And this is also what our God Yahweh in the Messiah Jesus does for our own sleeping elect spirits to this very day.

When His Holy Spirit returns to Zion, to His world-wide true church during the sixth seal’s revival, He will begin a process leading to His physical return, which will take less than one generation to complete. Then, after Yahweh in Jesus physically comes to sit on a throne in Zion, in a body of human flesh upon the earth, once He begins to rule the world with loving justice at last, after He corrects all wrongs and leads all who are able to love into a knowledge of truth for repentance, and after He permanently removes all the unrepentant and destructive deceivers and workers of evil from the earth, the millennium will begin. Then, “Old men and old women shall again sit in the streets of Jerusalem, each with a staff in hand because of great age. And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing” (Zech. 8:4-5, ESV). In other words, there will be peace, safety, food and housing security, care and medical treatment for all, and everything needed for a good life, once our God justly and equitably rules over Jerusalem and all the world, during the millennium of our King.

After Jesus returns, in the millennium, people will live long lives, since the earth will be restored and the land will become very fruitful, and wanna-be human gods will no longer exist in any lands to cause crippling hardships and steal life through unjust exploitation. So couples will want to have babies, since their hearts will be filled with hope, and they will have help in caring for their children from their extended families. And those children will play safely in the streets, while the elderly look after them and teach them about the good life. All this will be wondrous for those who survive the past times of cruel injustice and the plagues of the end times. To those survivors, and to most people in history, such a life would seem impossible. But the almighty God planned and ordained this kind of life for all His elect from the beginning, and none will stop our King Jesus from providing this kind of life for His people during the millennium. So God now asks: “If it is marvelous in the sight of the remnant of this people in those days, should it also be marvelous in My sight?” (8:6, ESV).

Most now think that wars, exploitation, poverty and crimes are “realities” they must accept. But all that suffering is actually created by the delusions of the wicked. The real reality is that God has always revealed sound and effective principles through which all could live abundant lives, and He has always provided enough knowledge and resources to feed, clothe and house literally everyone on this earth. Never, in all history, was there ever a time where the people needed to suffer the plagues of greedy, violent, ruthless exploiters forcing their destructive lies on the people, causing God to discipline the lands they caused to become so evil. In the beginning, and for most of history, the children of Adam and Eve could build their homes and gather all their necessities by working only an average of ten or twelve hours per week. The majority only became exploited and abused slaves when ruthless wanna-be gods demanded palaces to live in, built by worshiping equal siblings who bowed at their feet, and large armies to go out and capture more slaves and steal even more plunder.

So it will not be “marvelous” or unbelievable when our God Jesus effectively and successfully causes us to live simple and content lives according to principles we should have lived by from the

Page 1439

Last Days Timeline

 

beginning, by which we should be living now. Awakened elect spirits know that all the world can live good lives if we would heed God, if we made the loveless accountable for their lies and sins, if we made a stand for the true and proven just, equitable, loving ways of God. Zechariah learned from God and from God’s Word that God’s kind of loving justice should rule every land, but especially the land of His priesthood of Israel, which He created to teach His ways to the world. If we tend the garden of the earth and take responsibility for all living creatures, if we love our neighbors as we love ourselves, and if we truly love God in our spirits and in truth, His power will free all from the tyranny of injustice and money. God will tell us when to come and when to go, and will provide for all our needs. Then none will lack anything, and the dark delusions of the wicked will be suppressed.

But notice that ominous word, “remnant” (Hebrew = shehayreeth, “survivors,” in 8:6). That word indicates that many will die in Israel and around the world, just before Jesus returns to restore Israel and the whole world. Only some will survive the end times, a small minority of elect souls, whom God will save. And whoever plots and strives to save his life with the weapons of this world will lose it. But the elect who are willing to lose their lives for God and their loved ones will save their own lives, or will live on earth again at the first resurrection. Still, when Jesus rules the earth “in those days,” after the horrors of God’s wrath destroy all darkness during the end times, that remnant will see more peace, freedom, truth and justice than anyone has seen since very ancient times. And all the remnant will receive the full gratification of their hearts’ desires, so much that their lives on earth will seem utterly “marvelous,” even miraculous to them. Life will become pure joy. Yet this kind of life will be nothing new to our God Jesus. For His life is always filled with great joy in the sinless lands of heaven. For all the creatures of heaven dwell in the joy of gratifying love for one another. Furthermore, all the elect who truly know Jesus now, during these dark and troubled times of the fifth seal’s era of great persecutions, experience moments of light and revelation, where they see and know what life will be like after Jesus returns. Whenever the Spirit of God draws near to their spirits, to counsel them, they realize that His ways alone can save the earth. Then they too experience that peace and joy of the millennium. Humanists say this life during the millennium and our future life in heaven is fiction, mere wishful thinking. They say only their exploiting human gods and Satan’s invention of money are real, so we must all bow down to them. And they despise all this talk about Jesus creating a just, equitable, loving kind of physical and spiritual life on earth when He returns.

But we have all seen what the psychopathic human gods and their financial oppression has done to us and to the lands we live upon, even to the oceans and the air around us. And we have only seen false synagogues and fake churches offer false hope through human gods, even humanistic fascists like Hitler and Trump. Who has truly and personally known the one, true Creator God in Jesus, or has been looked upon by Him, to experience the joys of His true love? Yahweh Jesus has never entered their hearts or directly spoken to their spirits. So now let the loving spirits of the elect see and hear His Holy Spirit. We can testify that all He promises will indeed be granted at His returns.

I repeat, God’s two principal promises of His New Covenant salvation in Jesus the Messiah are: (1) His own personal wisdom and power will cause His elect to become faithful, to esteem and serve Him through their spirits’ love, according to His wise principles of life and faith; while (2) He also personally serves us through the love of His Spirit. Our God will come to govern our lives, so He will finally be able to say to us: “you shall be My people, and I will be your God, in faithfulness and in righteousness,” to fulfill His two promises. Other promises of His Abrahamic and New Covenants depend on these two core promises of eternal salvation for our spirits, which He reiterates in various ways through His Messianic prophecies. And the other promises included His works to return His Jewish elect “from the east country and from the west country,” then “bring them to dwell in the

 

Page 1440

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

midst of Jerusalem.” For He created these through Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to serve beside Him, as He ministers to the elect of the entire world, to assist in His works as the High Priest and King of all.

So what does this subsequent promise to physically return all Jews to their promised land actually mean? First, it means that an elect Jewish remnant from everywhere on earth will be saved. And it uses the words “from the east” and “from the west” because Israel is a narrow band of land forming a line from north to south. Therefore, half the world lies east of it and the other half lies west of it. Consequently, this suggests that God will save all the elect remnant everywhere on the earth when He returns, the elect both east and west of Israel, and the Jews will minister to both, because they will come from both the east and west. But not all of the elect can dwell with Jesus in the midst of Jerusalem, not all the Jewish and Gentile elect, not even just the Jewish elect. For this saved remnant will number more than a few billion souls! Only some elect Jews will serve Him in Jerusalem, while other elect Jews serve nearby in the expanded lands of Israel, within the borders God delineated to Abraham. Then His Jewish priests, with their elders, will serve Him in all other places on the earth.

After our God Jesus removes Satan, together with all the other fallen spirit and his wicked non-elect offspring, only His elect will inhabit the earth. So all the elect Jews scattered throughout the world, who will all be saved on the day He returns, shall be brought back to Israel, a few at a time, some to dwell in Jerusalem, and some to other place in Israel. Eventually, the entire remnant of elect Jews on earth will live in Jerusalem and Israel with the Lord Jesus. And God’s Law commanded His Jewish elect to come to Jerusalem, if possible, during three of His festivals, the three “pilgrimage festivals” (Passover, Weeks and Tabernacles). There all the Jews will be taught by their Head Teacher and High Priest, Jesus. Thus, He will bring the hearts and minds of all His Jewish elect to dwell with Him in Jerusalem, at times. He will turn the focus of the minds of their spirits to continually dwell with Him in Zion. Meanwhile, elect Gentiles, whom the Messiah gathers into His tribe of Judah, will also come to Jerusalem at times, for the same reason, to be taught by their Head Teacher. And the Gentile elect will also celebrate some symbolic festivals, like the Feast of Booths, to remind them that they now wander in the wilderness, on the earth in bodies of flesh, but will soon receive homes in heaven.

Note how our Creator then commanded His elect: “Let your hands be strong, you who in these days have been hearing these words from the mouth of the prophets who were present on the day that the foundation of the house of Yahweh of hosts was laid, that the temple might be built. For before those days there was no wage for man or any wage for beast, neither was there any safety from the foe for him who went out or came in, for I set every man against his neighbor” (Zech. 8:9-10, ESV). God sent His prophets to speak His words to His people as they rebuilt the temple, after Babylon had torn it down. All those prophets had but one mouth, God’s mouth. All spoke the same harmonious and consistent message, including God’s command to raise up His temple, so His presence would dwell among them. And that physical temple represented the physical body of the coming Messiah, the Man in whom Yahweh would dwell. But they were building that second temple voluntarily, without a bribe, as well as with a sword in one hand and a hammer in the other, since many nearby peoples were trying to stop them from worshiping the real God. God “set every man against his neighbor.” For God was separating His elect from the non-elect, was drawing a line between them. God was showing His elect that the loving compulsion He created and shaped in their elect spirits could not be thwarted by the works of Satan’s offspring, and He would not allow them to give up their love.

But soon God who would silence those enemies, and give good wages to both man and beast. God would cause the Persians to defend the rights of the Jews to build their temple. And this was to be a sign of their coming Messiah. For, through His prophet Zechariah, God told those impoverished and faithful Jews, who risked their lives to rebuild God’s temple: “But now I will not deal with the

Page 1441

Last Days Timeline

 

remnant of this people as in former days … For there shall be a sowing of peace. The vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its produce, and the heavens shall give their dew. And I will cause the remnant of this people to possess all these things. And as you have been a byword of cursing among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and you shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong” (Zech. 8:11-13, ESV). As God promised Abraham, the Jews would become a blessing to all His elect on earth, and inner priesthood serving His wider priesthood of Gentile elect brought into the tribe of David and the Messiah. After silencing their foe, Yahweh would come to dwell among them in the temple of His physical body and provide for them.

God’s people were “hearing these words from the mouth of the prophets,” words from God about the future, telling them about His return in the Messiah. But God also had a message for His people in the present time: “Fear not, but let your hands be strong.” It was one thing to have faith in God, to find courage in the promise that God will right all wrongs. Yet it is another thing thing to “let your hands be strong.” The Hebrew word translated as “strong” here is khawzak, meaning “to be or grow firm or strong [in resolve and will], to fasten upon [the purposes of God] … causatively strengthen, cure, help, repair, fortify … to bind, restrain, conquer.” With our hands, by expressing the love of our spirits through our physical actions, we are to bear fruits for God. We are to tear down the works of Satan and build up God’s loving, just, equitable kingdom. We are to firmly and consistently resolve to do God’s works on earth, in the same way as they are done in heaven, for all our siblings in the family humankind, for all “from the east” and all “from the west.” We are to “strengthen, cure, help, repair, fortify” all those with the ability to love, as we also “bind, restrain, conquer” God’s enemies who weaken, wound, hinder, break and steal necessities from His people. And we are to do all this through the wise counsel of our God, in the ways He teaches and trains our spirits to do His works.

During these times before our Messiah’s return and the millennium, we need to be brave and do the works of God with strong hands, through a firm resolve. Some of us are indecisive and hesitant in ways that some might falsely call cowardly, or lacking a knowledge of truths and realities about life and faith, or naturally weak or old, or sometimes foolish and carnal, or prone to distractions, and so on. But, together as a collective body, our combined strengths and gifts from God can overcome the lies and sins of Satan and loveless non-elect, then build up God’s kingdom with truths and our good works, through just and equitable love. For God commanded very ordinary and impoverished people in Zechariah’s day, as well as all of us today, all the loving elect living before the return of our God Jesus, “Fear not, but let your hands be strong.” And here the second-person pronouns (the word “your” and the implied “you”) were plural, implying that God gave this command to all His people, that He was telling them to work together as one fearless body through His wise counsel and power.

Everything we do in our day lays another stone to build “the house of Yahweh of hosts,” the groundwork for God’s kingdom on earth, which will be fully completed when Jesus rules the earth, from the physical temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem and as the living reality of that symbolic temple. All we do prepares for His second advent and the millennium. And our personal lives, as well as the whole history of the earth, which we all fulfill through our individual lives, will be used to further illustrate the truths Jesus shall teach us on the last day, for the completion and perfecting of our salvation into heaven. All our words and deeds work together to advance God’s predestined plan to its fruition. Furthermore, all we do and say works together for our own personal good, in ways that teach and train our spirits for perfect love and the life which we shall share with Jesus in heaven.

Our God Jesus gave us these prophecies about His return, the millennium and our future home in heaven to spur us onward, so we would press on toward the goal of our salvation, so we would build up His just and loving kingdom on earth, as we also nullify the loveless words and works of Satan.

Page 1442

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

He wanted to feed our souls with truth and a truly worthy purpose, with an incentive to carry on. It is why God dedicated so much of His Word to prophecies about the end times, why God thought it was so important for us to know about and reflect upon the future of the world, what life could be like.

This prophecy first described the situation in Jerusalem during the time of Zechariah, as the second temple was being constructed. And that also described how His Jewish elect would live until the return of their Messiah Jesus. To this day, the Jews have been “a byword of cursing” in the mouths of Babylon’s descendants, especially the Roman humanists. And God still “sets every man against his neighbor,” in war after war, deluding carnal souls the selfish ambitions which cause those wars, as His punishment because they do not love the truth. Bitter conflicts, exploitation and crimes exist in every land, and will only increase until Jesus comes to destroy the loveless non-elect. More trials test God’s elect each day, even as He frees more with His truth, which exposes the lies and sins of false religions, especially humanism, the religion of the Babylonian beast’s four kingdoms. So there is no peace on earth, not yet. And humanists still steal the wage of men and the wage of beasts from them.

The courage to do good cannot come from Babylon, neither in our day nor in the future. And the hands of God’s elect cannot be made strong by Satan’s world order. Only God’s comfort and wise counsel can overcome our fears and build the resolve of our spirits to do His good works. If the elect walk according to their minds of flesh and trust only in themselves and other human gods, they will fall like the other humanists in Satan’s world order. They will have no power to undo the works of the devil, no strength to stop exploiters and other criminals who steal the wages owing to them or to the living creatures on God’s green earth. There can be no safety “from the foe” while they worship the same gods as the foe. But the elect will grow courageous and their hands will be strengthened to do just, loving works, if Jesus awakens their spirits, if their spirits begin to worship Him in the real truths that He revealed in His Word and in His creations. So let us turn to the real Jesus for all this.

Here we see the process used by God to make His elect remnant bold and strong in the end times. But this process will not continuously discipline and punish the rebellion of His people in the old way, since God declared, “But now I will not deal with the remnant of this people as in the former days” (8:11, ESV). Now, since the Messiah’s first advent, God deals with the sins of His people in a new way. In the old way, in their Old Covenant relationship, His people were left to rely on their own strength, on their minds and bodies of flesh, to maintain a good relationship with their God. But, of course, walking according to the weak and amoral mind and strength of the flesh failed. So Yahweh in Jesus voluntarily paid the full price for the repented sins done through their flesh, which restored their full relationship with Him. Because of this, He could then send His Holy Spirit into their hearts and souls, to counsel their spirits, to build up their courage and their inner resolve to esteem Him based on truths about Him, to rightly and wisely serve Him, to do His works on earth.

It was inevitable that the Jews would fail to please God through their Old Covenant relationship, through their minds and bodies of flesh, since the flesh cannot possess spiritual and godly motives and intentions based on His teachings of His Law. Yet this is all God desires from us. Only our elect spirits can possess the right motives and intentions to do His spiritual works spontaneously through the minds and bodies of our flesh. And the ability to differentiate between the flesh and the spirit is what God was teaching to His priesthood of Israel through His Old Covenant relationship, so they would no longer walk according to the flesh but according to their spirits, as their spirits heard and heeded His Holy Spirit. God was teaching them “to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean” (Lev. 10:10, WEB), to become a spiritual people.

Since the Jews, and now the humanistic Gentile churches, could never please God by following the old ways, by trying to appease God through the strength of their flesh, which could never truly fulfill His laws, God let them all fail over and over again. And, no matter how much God threatened and actually punished their flesh, their minds of flesh fell back into the comfortable lies of idolatry, so that flesh could deceive itself into thinking its self-indulgent ways were godly and right, even as that flesh crushed the poor and hated all who spoke real truths. God caused both those Jews and Gentiles to wander in the wilderness of Satan’s world order for their entire lifetimes. But soon Jesus will proclaim His New Covenant Gospel of salvation throughout all the earth, and awaken all the elect, so they will realize that they must walk according to their spirits and not according to their flesh.

God drove His elect into an enslaving captivity which was in direct proportion to the degree in which they walked according to their flesh. If they walked entirely according to their flesh, then they were entirely enslaved. If their elect spirits partially acknowledged some of His truths, then they were only partially enslaved, but also partially encouraged and partially strengthened. All Jewish and Gentile elect were sent into the wilderness of the idolatrous, unjust, ruthless, ignorant humanistic lands which Satan created and ruled through Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome. Yet some elect did inwardly repent from some of Satan’s lies and truly pleased God. For God’s Holy Spirit taught the right interpretation of His Old Covenant Law to the minds of some elect spirits, then enabled their spirits to spontaneously fulfill parts of His Law, through right and loving motives and intentions of their spirits. For the only reason God gave them that temporary old way of the flesh through Moses was because He was trying to teach them that, if they relied solely upon their own strength of the flesh, they would soon become His enemies, not His friends. Throughout history, Abraham and all the prophets—even all with spirits that relied on God, who put all their faith in Him, who sought Him to strengthen and encourage them to build up His kingdom of just, God-like love—succeeded in finding abundant life while they lived. But others did not, not one who put all their faith in the flesh.

Thus, when the end times begin during the era of the sixth seal, a great revival will occur. God will work His new purifying and teaching process, “a sowing of peace” in elect spirits. Then, as the Messiah’s return draws near, His seed of peace will grow and bear fruit. The body of the true church on earth will finally “give its produce.” Elect spirits will no longer look like dry and dead vines in a field of overgrown thistles and weeds, but like the carefully tended, well-watered and abundantly fruitful vines of a wise and diligent Husbandman’s vineyard. Elect spirits will be quickened with many real truths from God’s Word, as with dew from heaven. At last, His elect will gain the real treasures of abundant life, the love and knowledge of their spirits, which they can take with them on their journey from earthly to eternal life. God made His New Covenant of salvation in Jesus solely with “the house of Judah and house of Israel.” But all elect Gentiles will then be gathered into the Messiah’s tribe of Judah, and all the Jews into all twelve tribes of Israel. Yahweh’s priesthood will be faithful churches and synagogues, who will no longer be “a byword of cursing among the nations.”

The days are coming when the Holy Spirit of our God Jesus Himself will call His true elect out from the fake churches and false synagogues. He will save His elect from bondage to deceit, lies and sins. He will purge the deluding teachings of Satan’s servants from elect hearts, until His loving people truly become a blessing to all the earth, just as He meant them to be in the beginning, when He made His promise to that solitary priest named Abraham. So now let elect Jews and elect Gentiles find the righteous kind of love in their spirits and cast aside fear. Death in the flesh hold comfort and joy for the spirit. And, with the courage we gain from His truth, we can build God’s just kingdom on earth and face the challenges of earthly life together, for the collective education of our spirits, as we share

our painful tribulations with one another. Let Jesus make our hands strong to silence lies, undo the unjust works of Satan, and serve His creations, so His will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven.

“‘I will save you, and you shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong.’ For thus says Yahweh of hosts: ‘As I purposed to bring disaster to you when your fathers provoked Me to wrath, and I did not relent,’ says Yahweh of hosts, ‘so again have I purposed in these days to bring good to Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear not. These are the things that you shall do: Speak the truth to one another; render in your gates judgments that are true and make for peace; do not devise evil in your hearts against one another, and love no false oath, for all these things I hate,’ declares Yahweh” (Zech. 8:13b-17, ESV). At the present time, all churches and synagogues diligently practice only the things God hates; only speak lies, only give unjust judgments to incite the just to anger and provoke wars, plot only evil in their hearts through greed and a lust for fame or power, love their “solemn” false oaths that deceive their dupes, and do all this falsely in God’s name. But the elect are waking up to see these dark delusions for what they truly are. So, although God’s wrath will still purpose to bring disaster to the fake churches and false synagogues, yet save His elect to make them a blessing that speaks the truth, renders true and just judgments, plans good works and fulfills their promises.

Here God repeats the commands above, to fear not and let our hands be strong during the end times. And He speaks in plain words. We have all felt God’s wrath, as He rebukes our lies and sins, often through very harsh punishments against our flesh, to severely limit or stop the functioning of our flesh. And God’s wrath does not relent until our spirits will repent. This makes our flesh fear Him, but causes our souls to differentiate between the desires of our flesh and the longings of our elect spirits, which transforms that fear of the flesh into the spirit’s loving respect for Him. And our fleshy fear works no love. Only our elect spirits can express love. So now let us think about our lies and sins, why our loving and just God grew so angry and punished our flesh. His wrath was not selfish, not to force us to obey his will. Rather, His discipline is always designed to educate our spirits, to cause us to differentiate between the flesh and spirit. For God wants to turn us away from an amoral and loveless life in the flesh, towards a just and loving life where our spirits follow His wise counsel.

God never grows angry simply because people do not do His will. For God is almighty and created the entire earth. So God laughs when the fallen angels and their human offspring shake their fists at Him, when they oppose His will among themselves. For God knows they can do nothing to Him and that He can easily restore all of their petty damage to His properties. But God does grow very angry when those malignant spirits cause harm to the spirits of His own beloved elect children. God put those loveless spirits of demons and non-elect humans on earth to educate the spirits of His elect children, so the spirits destined for heaven might learn to cherish His kind of just love and Himself. Thus, God tolerates some temporary evils on His temporary earth. But He also has limits and has appointed times when He will remove loveless spirits from His earth, even a time to end the earth.

Loveless despots rage when their dupes do not do their will, when they do not get the self-indulgent things they demand, because their non-elect spirits become just as psychopathic as the spirit of their hellish father. But the heavenly Father and oldest Brother of elect human spirits does not grow nearly as angry when we lie and sin, because He knows He can easily repair all damages, restore all losses, and will soon cause our inherently loving spirits to fully repent into the truth. God also knows that He created our flesh to be amoral and impulsive, and that our flesh causes our lies and sins. Yet God also sees how our lies and sins hurt ourselves, His other children and His other living creations. So He disciplines us. He punishes our temporary flesh so we will stop hurting others, to teach and train our eternal spirits to serve His creations instead, even as He serves His own children and creations.

Now, since God only expresses His wrath on earth for our sakes, as well as for the sakes of His other beloved children and living creations, we should not think He is unloving, nor fear Him with a carnal way. Rather, our elect spirits should respect our loving Father, and fear to lie and sin because it will cause harm to our siblings and other living beings, then train our flesh to do just and loving works, which our Father created our spirits to inherently desire. Let our spirits learn about the principles which God created for the effective functioning of all life, then repent into those truths, so we might live through love for God and for His creations. We must no longer hold the past sufferings against God, but put the blame where it is due, upon the people who did not hear God’s warnings and flee from the wicked. Now we look forward to the abundant life of truth building love in and through our spirits, the life He leads us into, and press on towards the goal of our salvation from all lies and sins.

Then we shall bear fruit spontaneously, from our spirits inside our flesh. And, when He said “the vine shall give its fruit” (8:12), remember that He also told us: “I am the Vine. You are the branches. He who remains in Me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing” (John 15:5, WEB). And this “fruit” of our spirits in Jesus “is in all goodness and righteousness and truth” (Eph. 5:9, WEB). He causes our spirits to possess a just and responsible kind of love, inner joy and peace, patience in suffering, kindness for the weak, goodness in all our words and deeds, faith in His works and words, gentleness in our labors for all living creations, and control over the impulses of our flesh (Gal. 5:22-23). This “fruit” was defined in this prophecy as the God-given ability to “speak the truth to one another,” resulting in the capacity to “render in your gates judgments that are true and make for peace.” So it produces real justice, through God-like love, not the kinds of unjust and toxic fruits of lies and brutal injustice we see from fake churches and synagogues today. And our God warned us, “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles? Even so, every good tree produces good fruit, but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit” (Mat. 7:15-17, WEB). Clearly, those loveless and unjust branches are not growing from the true Vine of God, but from the deadly thorns and thistles of Satan. The fruits of fascists are not fruits from God.

Every God-like judgment must be “true,” that is, applied according to God’s Word rightly handled, in a way that acknowledges our loving and just God’s own intended meanings, while considering all the realities, facts and truths indicated by all pertinent evidence, since that evidence consists of the physical and spiritual realities created by God. Furthermore, all judgments are based on the motives and intentions of spirits, which can change through repentance into the truth. Then, whenever spirits are willing, truly just judgments establish an inner bond of love, with peace between the accuser and the accused. But, if a judgment is not “true,” it does not “make for peace” between the victim and the sinner. A false and unjust judgment breeds hatred, anger and violence. So, according to God’s own definition, we conclude that very little true justice exists in our lands, neither in religious institutions nor in secular courts of law. And this is the real reason we see so little peace and joy in our people.

Instead of making peace, our lands feed a Satanic lust for revenge, encouraging men to “devise evil in their hearts against one another.” Our authorities spend more time and resources on developing new ways to kill in their unjust wars than they do on justice and works for peace, or on developing truly just ways of feeding, clothing, housing, healing and protecting their siblings in the family of humankind. Both religious and secular authorities love making false “oaths,” promising to do good works which they have no intention of doing, just to lure in the support of dupes, while they actually only ever commit themselves to unjust causes. In fact, all are now humanists who literally worship the most unjust psychopaths, the most ruthless exploiters who lie, steal and kill to grow wealthy,

who murder and plunder the innocent, who willingly dive into the deepest depths of depravity, who cause violent reactions and suicidal depression through their gross injustice, never any peace and joy.

Judah and Israel provoked God’s wrath by doing such things, just as the world now provokes God to wrath in our day. And all this will “bring disaster” on most heads, by the hands of God, when He comes to judge the world during the coming end times. But Jesus’ Holy Spirit will cause the spirits of His elect to repent into the truth and forsake evil, as He shapes the wills of their spirits through His concepts that He pours into their hearts and souls, and through the experiences He will use to train their behaviors. No longer will our God Jesus leave His elect children to themselves. Instead, He will teach, train, counsel and guide them, discipline and correct them, cause them to become righteous in God-like love, to faithfully and wisely serve Him, His people and His other creations.

The almighty God of uncountable hosts of invincible heavenly creatures also promised the Jews that the following would occur after He returned, during the millennium: “The fast of the fourth month and the fast of the fifth and the fast of the seventh and the fast of the tenth shall be to the house of Judah seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts. Therefore love truth and peace” (Zech. 8:19-20, ESV). Yahweh promised this to “Judah,” to the southern tribes where His temple, symbolizing Yahweh in the body of the Messiah, was located. And Judah was the tribe of the Messiah, into which all the Gentile elect would be gathered. So God then said the Gentiles “shall yet come, even the inhabitants of many cities. The inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying, ‘Let us go at once to entreat the favor of Yahweh and to seek Yahweh of hosts; I myself am going.’ Many peoples and strong nations shall come to see Yahweh of hosts in Jerusalem and to entreat the favor of Yahweh” (Zech. 8:20-22, ESV). So, since the Messiah Jesus will be the reality of what the temple merely symbolized for the future times of God’s presence in Jerusalem during the millennium, Judah would no longer fast, while longing for the fulfilling of that promise, but would instead feast with great joy.

This is why our God exhorts us to “love truth and peace” now, so we can build up His millennial kingdom and experience “seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts” today, in our parts of this world. God’s just, equitable and loving ways of responsible freedoms and humility, which “love truth and peace,” are the only ways that make lives better. And only our real Creator God Himself can eternally save elect spirits from lies and sins. Blind souls have sought all kinds of other religious, political and financial solutions, but all failed, primarily because all are based on Satanic lies, and because almost all involve the devil’s religion of humanism. Then, when all those false solutions and systems inevitably collapse, those humanists lie and blame the inevitably resulting factions, hatred, violence and wars on other humanistic sects. Secular humanists will blame religious humanists; fascists will blame communists; one race of humanists will blame another race of humanists; and so on, all based on extremely superficial and physical differences. Yet their spirits all agree on the same lying and murdering ways and remain one in an identical thought and purpose, to quench the same kind of selfish ambition and greed. What we all actually need is to love God’s principles of effective and abundant life; which He wrote in His physical and spiritual creations at the beginning of time, which have never changed and which He also revealed to His priesthood, so they could teach us those truths. Those immutable truths, which lead us into a modest but fulfilling life that respects the Creator and all His creations, will always remain the only effective solution for progress and peace.

The fasts mentioned in this prophecy were likely the days which the Jews set aside to grieve the loss of Judah’s freedom and independence as a nation: (1) the day Babylon broke through the walls of Jerusalem; (2) the day Babylon destroyed the temple; (3) the day a Jew named Ishmael assassinated Gedaliah, the governor whom Babylon appointed to rule over Judah; and (4) the day that Babylon surrounded Jerusalem. These were not fasts appointed by God, since His Law only specified fasting

Page 1447

Last Days Timeline

 

on the Day of Atonement in the seventh month, but no fasts in the fourth, fifth and tenth months. Yet God Himself will transform these man-appointed days of fasting and mourning into “seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts.” And there is only one way this could happen; if Babylon, together with all the other Persian, Greek and Roman enemies of the Jews, lost the power to harm the Jews in any way ever again, and after the true Israel learned to forsake the lure of Babylon’s religion, the religion of the beast, the religion of humanism, so Israel could regain true freedom and independence as a nation of God’s faithful priests. Since these things will not occur until the end times, God was saying that Israel will become a holy nation, ruled by Him again, after He annihilates the power of Babylon and the beast of her fourth Roman kingdom, on the day of His final return as their Messiah.

Yet God cannot do these works of completed restoration for Israel while she is stubbornly clings to the lies and sins of Babylon’s religion, while she still practices the traditions of humanism, while she remains a false priesthood of God. For, if God freed Israel while she willfully lies and sins, then the utterly honest and holy God would be aiding and abetting those lies and sins, partaking in them. So God here commanded His elect of Israel to “love truth and peace” instead, to walk according to their spirits as their spirits learned the truth from Him, so they might let God transform them into His true, faithful, just and loving priests, as Abraham was in the beginning. Then He would replace their days of fasting and mourning with very many lengthy “seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts.”

Furthermore, this is not a command which God expected Israel to obey through her own strength. Rather, His command means that He Himself will cause Israel to spontaneously fulfill all that He commanded, even all of His Law, just as Jeremiah’s prophecy about His New Covenant declared that He would. God Himself will soon cause the spirits of all the elect in Israel to “love truth and peace,” since God created those spirits to inherently “love truth and peace,” and He will also shape the wills of those elect spirits until they do this spontaneously. Our God and Messiah Jesus will cause both this command and this prophecy to be fulfilled when He returns to teach Israel as their High Priest.

God ended this part of His prophecy by describing the beginning of the millennium, when He will call literally all elect Jews in the world back to their homeland of Israel: “In those days ten men from the nations of every tongue shall take hold of the robe of a Jew, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you’” (Zech. 8:23, ESV). So, as Jesus is calling all the elect Jews to return, ten Gentile elect souls will want to go with each Jew, to hear the words of our God Jesus in Jerusalem and entreat Him to bless their own homeland. And the Gentile elect who will want to do this will mostly be teaching and judging elders of their people, who are one out of ten or more men.

Therefore, this indicates that the population of elect Gentiles in the world will be very large, even more than ten times that of the Jews. For only about one out of ten or more, even one out of a hundred or a thousand Gentiles will be an elder, or have enough of a commitment and free time to go to Israel. Yet literally every Jew will be called to Israel. So, if ten Gentiles will go with every Jew back to Israel, that means the population of elect Gentiles in the world will be at least a hundred times more than the population of elect Jews, probably more than a thousand times as many as the Jews. The earth will be sparsely populated after the plagues of the end times kill more than two thirds of both the Jews and Gentiles. But since, during the millennium, Israel will be filled with more Jews than the stars of the sky, there will still be billions of Gentiles left alive upon the earth then.

The last statements of this prophecy clearly indicate that it is about all the peoples of all languages and from all places in the world. It is not merely about the people of Judah alone. God equally loves all His elect from all nations. Yet He will serve all His peoples through the assistance of their Jewish siblings. Jews will labor as His inner priesthood of His greater universal priesthood and family. For a

biblical kind of priest is a close friend who counsels his equal friends in matters he has learned from God, who is also his close Friend. And that kind of counsel must be administered personally. So, when Jesus first came to reveal the Gospel, He personally counseled only twelve disciples, who each personally counseled about twelve other brothers. Then each of those other brothers personally counseled about twelve more, and so on, until all the elect in their land were personally counseled.

Likewise, it will be similar when Jesus returns in a body of flesh again. Our Jewish brothers will counsel their Gentile brothers everywhere on earth. Yet Jesus, when He came the first time, also personally counseled individual men and women apart from the twelve, and did not develop any kind of hierarchical system. Thus, there will not be any kind of hierarchical system when He returns.

Humanists hate the loving and informal ways of God. For God always works through intricate, complex, incomprehensible procedures involving vast networks of personal spiritual and physical interactions, to rapidly and effectively produce wondrously good fruits. But, since humanists cannot even begin to fathom Gods’ wise ways, they declare that His ways are irrational and chaotic. For humanists want to believe that their vain little brains of flesh understand all things, in a way which gives them the right to rule like gods over all people and all things. Yes, humanists always end up proving to themselves and to everyone else that they are actually entirely inept and destructive, that they are incapable of ruling anyone or anything as gods, since they produce only chaos and bear only toxic fruits. Yet, through a practiced and violently enforced ignorance, they insist that they are the only gods who can save and bring order which bears good fruit. Thus, all humanists are obviously deluded, irrational and insane, yet intentionally perpetuate lies and delusions rather than admit that God is God, and God alone can be the wise Savior of the people and all living creations on the earth.

All the so-called “orderly” humanistic systems in history have been irrational and chaotic, and never truly effective in producing any good results. Meanwhile, God’s personal, informal, highly complex works are always ultimately orderly and effective in bearing the long-term good fruits of true justice equity and love. For God carefully plans His works according to the principles by which He created all existence to function most effectively, and all His works were predestined from the beginning of time. God created His elect human children to live modest lives together, caring for one another and nature with watchful eyes, learning truths from birth to death. They were to share the truths that their heavenly Father taught to their spirits, with loving concern for their people, as they tended God’s gardens and gave names to His living creatures around them, applying their God-given discernment between good and evil. Their lives were to be intelligent, wise and loving as they grew to know the genius and wisdom of their all-knowing Father and oldest Brother. But Satan’s systems wanted to supplant God the Father, with human gods who would become psychopathic and cruel fathers, who would claim ownership of the people, so they could exploit or kill them at will, then call it “order.”

Since all Satan’s systems, from the beginning of time, have been oppressive, enslaving and utterly destructive to humans and to all God’s other creations, we need to abandon them, so we can live free and fruitful lives according to God’s loving, wise, original and eternal ways. And, since the religion of humanism was Satan’s ultimate system of oppression, enslavement, chaos, disorder, ignorance, cruelty, destruction and murder, all in the darkest kinds of lies and through the most irrational kinds of sins, we must reject humanistic systems above all. Instead, we need to choose the way of life that God intended us to live from the beginning, as loving nuclear families within in small communities of a dozen or so other families, as small bodies which function as the organs of larger bodies, all organically organized by God. This organizing into larger bodies and whole nations must develop naturally, as we choose the teaching and decision-making elders whom God Himself chose for our

 

Page 1449

Last Days Timeline

 

smaller and larger bodies. And we will know who those elders are because they will be honest men with elect spirits whom God taught and trained to love in His own wise and humbly equitable ways.

This is how we will live during the millennium, in the ways our current humanistic synagogues and churches imagine, not according to enslaving and oppressive hierarchical class systems with human gods ruling over us. And Jesus will systematically crush all those kinds of humanistic systems to dust before He sets a foot on this earth. Beginning with His destruction of financial systems and the infrastructures of Satan’s world order at the beginning of the sixth seal’s era, to enable the revival of His true church, each of His subsequent plagues will eliminate more of humanism’s foundations and walls. For our God Jesus will not tolerate any of Satan’s systems when He comes to teach all the peoples as their oldest Brother and only High Priest, when He returns to serve as our one and only Law Maker and King. Jesus will once again establish the perfect order that originally existed upon this earth. Then we will know that only our God owns all the lands and all that is upon them. Then we will know that God freely and equitably shares all with all, granting a specific stewardship of resources, knowledge and wisdom to each elect individual, but only to enable each to lovingly serve His creations in the same way as He does. Then we shall “speak the truth to one another” and will “render in our gates judgments that are true and make for peace,” each serving as a “blessing” to all.

This is why our God Jesus will choose the Jews, the people He created through Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and through the wise women who chose those men as their husbands, to serve as His inner serving priesthood. Jesus will choose the Jews because He created and shaped each of their elect spirits and bodies to do this kind of work. It will not be because any Jews are superior or inferior, born into a class destined to serve others in higher or lower classes, according to the ways humanists think of “order.” Rather, it will be because the Jews have become the brothers and sisters of all the elect in all the nations and languages on earth, during the time God scattered the Jews into all the peoples of the earth. And those Jews have experienced the brutality of humanism and other forms of Satan’s false religions during their captivity, through intensive persecutions, in the same ways that all the other Gentile families and tribes have also experienced the same. Thus, those tribulations have taught elect Jews to empathize with the unjust suffering of all the Gentile peoples of the earth too.

Within Israel, all the remnant living in all its cities, all the elect Jews of Israel, will go out with one another as a united and sanctified priesthood of God, to Jerusalem each year, and some will go there several times a year, to fellowship with Jesus and the Jews who dwell in and serve in that city. The Jews will go to Jerusalem to entreat and pray to their God Jesus, asking Him for just decisions in matters too difficult for them, and to seek His wise teachings, His personal counsel. Then many Gentiles and strong nations shall also come to Jerusalem for the same reasons. And those Gentiles will fellowship with the Jews like the Jews were supposed to fellowship with their brothers in the Aaronic priesthood during the Old Covenant times. And all the elect on earth will be one family.

But the elect Jews and Gentiles will not come together as submissive individuals in crowds of complete strangers, to become mindless automatons manipulated by human gods on podiums raised above them, as they are in the assemblies of humanists. Rather, they will gather in small groups of familiar and deeply loved siblings, as extended families consisting of both Jews and Gentiles, so they can ask questions and learn interactively from one another, and personally from Jesus. And here it says that, in those days, ten Gentile men shall “take hold of the robe of a Jew.” For it takes at least ten men and their families to make a synagogue, that is, a local church fellowship. And this group will say to the Jewish man and his family, “Let us go with you,” as disciples of Jesus, because they will believe God is with that Jewish man, that he is a blessing to them. All this will occur after Jesus returns, after Jesus destroys Babylon and all the loveless non-elect on earth, when only a remnant of

Page 1450

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

elect souls remain in Israel and in all other nations. After Jesus spiritually and physically restores and redeems Israel and the world, all will dwell safely in peace and joy, where each fulfills one’s destiny.

Gog and Magog

Ezekiel and the apostle John prophesied about one last rebellion against Jesus, which will occur after the millennium, a thousand years after Jesus returns. At that time, Jesus will temporarily release Satan upon the earth again, so the devil can give birth to a covetous, murderous horde of non-elect souls who will war against Him. But Jesus will only allow their existence for a brief period and, once they reach Israel, Jesus will utterly destroy those rebels, then cast Satan back into hell. So Jesus will indirectly cause this tragic, deadly rebellion, and will obviously cause it for some necessary purpose. Jesus will do this to illustrate some kind of truth which He could not possibly teach to elect spirits in any other easier way. He will violently disrupt peace to exemplify an important principle to the elect.

After that rebellion, the earth will exist for an indeterminate period of time, until the second and final resurrection of all human beings who ever lived on earth throughout history. All shall be gathered upon earth so all can ascend together for their judgment at the gates of heaven. Once they all ascend, God will dissolve our perceptions of the earth and the material universe. He will “burn” all material realities, since they will no longer be required. And Jesus will begin that judgment day by casting all the loveless non-elect human spirits into hell. Then He will teach the truth to all the elect, until all of them repent. And, when all the elect Jews and Gentiles elect are ready, all will descend together into the New Jerusalem on heaven’s mainland, as one family of God. Then each individual will receive one’s own perfect predestined eternal home. There Jesus will work beside them, to serve the angels and all other living entities of heaven, tending His gardens and naming His beloved wild creatures.

Since the earth will be a loving utopia by the time Jesus releases Satan on earth to cause the deadly rebellion of Gog and Magog, many ask why Jesus would allow and even intentionally cause such a tragedy. And the answer is that our God Jesus clearly will need to illustrate a critical teaching, in a way that all His elect will remember it forever. Through the rebellion of Gog and Magog, Jesus must irrefutably and firmly prove a principle in a way which all His elect will learn it and will never forget it, including the deceased elect who will examine that event in heaven during the judgment day. And that lesson, which Jesus will teach through the rebellion of Gog and Magog, would have something to do with a core deception employed by Satan to inhibit or nullify the faith and works of His elect. This rebellion, after a thousand years of peace and spiritual advancement, will be a final lesson in the earth’s history of humankind, a completion of spiritual lessons from God for the spirits of His elect children. Now, since the religion of humanism is Satan’s most powerful work of deception on earth, his ultimate weapon against God and His elect, the lesson of this rebellion is likely about humanism.

Even after a thousand years of teaching the infantile spirits of His elect siblings upon the earth, Jesus will find that a certain kind of understanding is still lacking in the majority of elect souls. And, since He created the earth for the sole purpose of teaching and training the spirits of His elect, He will cause this rebellion on earth to make His elect understand that specific principle which they do not yet fully comprehend. Jesus will cause death, destruction and horrors on the perfectly peaceful earth to prove that a certain error in their thinking is wrong and to show His elect how to think rightly, in order to complete what is lacking in them. And the only kind of knowledge and wisdom which could be lacking during times of perfect peace is empathy for unjustly suffering souls, which results in a greater zeal for truth, in a more urgent compunction to firmly uphold and maintain truth at any cost.

One of the worst lies of humanism is the idea that the needs of the spirit are irrelevant. The spirits of humanists either refuse to acknowledge their own existence and, therefore, their spirits’ need for any works done for their spirits, or their spirits believe that spirits do not need any works to be done in order to maintain their spiritual health. Humanists think that, once they provide their flesh with all its needs and make their flesh comfortable, nothing more is required. But the opposite is true. Our works for the flesh are incidental, not very important to life. The most critical works in our lives are the works we do to maintain our spirits. Life in the flesh is nothing if the spirit is dead. Feeding the flesh is worthless if the spirit is starving. Abundant life requires truth, so we can build love for others and receive love from others. Without that truth and love, we have utterly nothing. Without fullness of the spirit, the body exists for no reason. We need real meaning in our lives. Our existence, both on earth and in heaven, only no quality nor purpose unless we serve God by serving His creations through love built on a foundation of realities about ourselves and those we serve. Other than life for God and for one another, absolutely nothing matters, and our bodies of flesh may as well not exist.

Jesus told us: “Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith? Don’t seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious. For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things. But seek God’s Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you” (Luke 12:27-31, WEB). Our flesh “today exists and tomorrow is cast into the oven.” And Jesus was saying this to an impoverished people who were oppressed by thieving, ruthless enemy Roman forces. Our God Jesus told threatened souls, with no security for their flesh, to “seek first God’s Kingdom and His righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well” (Mat. 6:33, WEB). For the entire purpose of granting His elect these perceptions of life on earth is to instill in us a greater love and zeal for the spirit’s love and service to His kingdom, which is our inheritance as His children, which is our kingdom of love, justice and equity built on a foundation of truth. And, after our lessons on earth have been completed with the death of our flesh, we will return to our permanent bodies made of eternal spiritual substances in the spiritual realm. So, if our spirits learn nothing on this earth, if our spirits do not grow and mature, if all we care for is our earthly flesh, we have lost life’s meaning.

So now we can begin to see why, after all is perfectly peaceful, orderly, just and equitable on earth, while nothing exists to cause hardships or anxieties for the flesh, Jesus will suddenly bring back the malignant spirit of Satan to the earth, to do the same works he did before, and for the very same purpose, to strengthen the zeal and resolve of elect spirits in matters of love and service. Also, since that devil did his evil works most effectively through his invented religion of humanism, through the delusions of a god-like self-determination of one’s own destiny in hierarchical class systems, we can assume that his newly created non-elect humans on earth will find some residual forms of humanism on earth to tempt God’s elect with those false teachings. Satan will cause some to desire a god-like power and treat their siblings as either “superior” or “inferior” to themselves. Satan will tempt God’s elect to “seek first” the things of the flesh in his kingdom, rather than the things of God’s kingdom.

And, as soon as Jesus returns Satan to the earth, that devil will make human spirits in his own image and place them in human bodies. Then those non-elect will not be satisfied with life under the rule of our God Jesus, since the hearts of the non-elect, just like their father, will desire only to become their own gods, to please their own desires of their flesh, by enslaving other people and stealing God’s properties. Since the non-elect can never be entirely satisfied under any circumstances whatsoever, they will stir up discontentment among the elect too, through their lies. The sleeping elect, who live

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

by the works of their flesh and for their flesh, who are perfectly comfortable and secure in their flesh during the millennium, will be lured into believing the lies of those non-elect. But after the non-elect begin to ruthlessly attack the innocent and unjustly persecute the righteous, the slumbering spirits of the elect will wake up. Once they see the darkness, emptiness and futility of the non-elect lives, the elect will realize their mistake. So the elect will repent into the truth and understand that their lives on earth exist only to “seek first the kingdom of God,” solely to learn to love God and His creations.

We need to understand that, when Jesus returns, He will destroy the fourth Roman kingdom of the beast, and completely eliminate its religious and philosophical traditions. But God, through Daniel, told us that He will let the first three kingdoms of the beast (Babylon, Persia and Greece) exist for an unspecified “season” after the Ancient of Days destroys the fourth kingdom (Dan. 7:3-12). And that “season” would refer to the millennium. But all four are all religious kingdoms, who will gain and maintain their power through teachings about spiritual principles and with practices that keep their dupes addicted to their lies. So we assume that God shall finally end the other three of the four evil religious kingdoms after the “season” of a thousand years, through the rebellion of Gog and Magog.

So that rebellion of Gog and Magog seems to involve a revival of Satan’s religion of humanism, but a primitive form developed in the first three kingdoms of Babylon, Persia and Greece. I will likely be a type of theistic humanism similar to what Plato taught. And Platonic churches will try to kill or enslave Jesus, so they can redefine a god who serves their own wills, much like the Roman Catholics and Evangelicals have always done and try to do in our day. Thus, the rebellion of Gog and Magog will demonstrate how these primitive forms of humanism have always and will always continue to stir up dissatisfaction, violence and rebellion against the real God in even the most loving, just, free societies like the world will be during the millennium. For deluded humanists want to be gods. So they cannot bear to have the real God force any kind of reality upon them, even a loving, just, free, equitable and wise reality. They hate both spiritual and physical truth, since realities deny them the “freedom” to be enslaved by their most base lusts of their flesh. Humanists will always oppose and war against the honest, just, wise and loving Creator’s Spirit who exposes them to genuine realities and true wisdom daily, with irrefutable reasoning behind all His wise decisions and loving actions.

Through the rebellion of Gog and Magog, our God Jesus will provide the final proof against the last of Satan’s most subtle lies, exposing them as worthless, destructive and deadly. Jesus will burn the very last of the most cunning and destructive lies that the devil could possibly muster, which are his lies built upon the core humanistic delusions formed through his oppressive kingdoms of Babylon, Persia and Greece. For this is why our God created the earth and placed so many of His beloved elect spirits upon it, including the spirits of His own children, created in His image. The Creator gave those spirits the perception of life within this material space-time continuum so He could teach them to discern all that is real, pure truth about Him and His ways, so they could then reject any deviation from that truth, knowing that all which even slightly deviates from it will eventually cause harm and death. Thus, after Jesus exposes and burns away the last of Satan’s lies, life on earth will continue for an unspecified time, but probably not a long time. Then our God Jesus will assemble all the human spirits and take them up to heaven’s gates, for the final exposing of Satan’s loveless non-elect before the faces of His elect siblings, and for the completion and perfection of His elect siblings. That is, all the human spirits will be awakened in their spiritual bodies and the material universe will burn away.

All the non-elect spirits born in the image of Satan, who all love their delusions and lies about being their own gods, who all exploit and oppress other souls to gratify their pride and lusts even though it always results in pain and destruction for themselves as well, will be cast into hell on that last day at heaven’s gates. For they will want absolutely nothing to do with God’s home in heaven, where the

Page 1453

Last Days Timeline

 

light of truth shines everywhere, where His realities will never let them feel like gods who created their own loveless realities for their own selfish and abusive purposes. Only in hell will those non-elect spirits be able to stubbornly cling to the darkness of their self-serving delusions and lies, where no light will ever expose their folly. Like their father, Satan, they would rather dwell in that utter darkness and unreality of their ungratified but cherished delusions and lies for all eternity, where they will never again be exposed to God’s created realities. So, after His elect see all this on the faces and in the hearts of all those non-elect souls, even the ones they tried to love on earth, those elect will let those non-elect flee through the gates leading into hell, without sorrow, without any attempt to stop them. Then the elect will turn to their God Jesus and to one another in joy, leaping and running in the love they have for one another, among all the exposed and untainted realities in heaven’s full light. The completing and perfecting of all those elect will make them shine like Jesus.

So, although Jesus shall initially imprison Satan in hell at the beginning of the millennium, God’s Word states that Jesus will indeed temporarily release Satan’s spirit upon the earth after a thousand years. Upon Satan’s release, it seems that he will also give birth to many non-elect spirits in bodies of human flesh on earth. For the non-elect must be the principal activists causing the rebellion of Gog and Magog against Jesus. The spirits of those rebels must be non-elect children of Satan. But, since all things work for together for the good of those who inherently love God, for all elect spirits, Jesus shall indirectly cause this rebellion for the teaching and training of those elect spirits. As part of their training, the elect require opposition, to strengthen their spiritual “muscles,” so they might grow up to be powerful adults who can rightly and effectively work God’s kind of love. In addition to all this, all the lessons learned by every individual elect soul who ever dwelt on earth will be fully shared with all their elect siblings at heaven’s gates and after that. Therefore, all that Jesus teaches through this rebellion of Gog and Magog will also educate all the elect humans who ever existed.

From the very beginning, God’s purpose in creating the earth was to teach and train His elect to be more like Him, that is, to wisely discern between good from evil (see Gen. 3:22), to gain knowledge of what aligns with the attributes and will of God and what does not. For the elect can only make right, wise decisions through that kind of knowledge, and will need to be able to make choices after they begin to labor beside their God Jesus in heaven, when they serve His creations there. Learning the difference between good and evil is a necessary part of their preparation for their eternal life in heaven, when they shall serve life beside their serving Father and oldest Brother for all eternity. So, by allowing evil on the temporary earth, by allowing tragedies like the rebellion of Gog and Magog by Satan and his non-elect children, Jesus will teach and train the elect about the subtle differences between doctrines that are slightly tainted by humanism and His own pure, biblical teachings. And make no mistake; the rebellion of Gog and Magog will involve a fake “Christian” church, since there will be no atheistic secular humanists on earth during the millennium, nor any other religions, after our God Jesus Himself dwells on earth and rules over a true theocracy for a thousand years, in the plain sight of everyone on the earth. But it will be a false church which teaches that our God Jesus is wrong about His teachings and His ways, a church that desires hierarchical classes and human gods.

It is highly likely that Gog and Magog will consist of false “Christian” churches that adopt forms of theistic humanism originating from the beast’s first three kingdoms, a kind of early humanism found in Babylon, Persia and Greece. So their rebellion will probably teach that their own false teachers are “superior” to the elders whom Jesus raised up, and all who learn from their “superior” teachers are “superior” to those who do not. Then the dupes who most precisely emulate those human teachers will be classified as “superior” to those who cannot. So those false churches will create hierarchical class systems. Thus, their rebellion will be used as a lesson for the elect, to teach them that all God’s

 

Page 1454

Seventh Seal Prophecies

 

elect are different but equally critical for the well-being of the whole body, where each performs a unique function at different times in one’s life, and all those different functions teach all to love in His just, equitable ways. Then the elect with sleeping spirits, who will be temporarily deceived by those humanistic doctrines, will begin to wake up when they see how those fake churches preach a hatred of Jesus and reject all that is just, good and loving. Those elect will come to their senses and learn to value Jesus and His truths much more than they did before, as the devastating effects of those humanistic lies in the false churches of Gog and Magog come to a climax. Then, after Jesus preaches truths that nullify the humanistic corruptions which caused so much death and destruction, and burns those rebels, all the surviving elect will keep His truths absolutely pure and value them.

Remember, Daniel’s prophecy states: “As for the rest of the beasts [the first three kingdoms of Babylon, Persia and Greece], their dominion was taken away, but their lives were prolonged for a season and a time” (Dan. 7:12, ESV). Of course, what is here called the “lives” of those “beasts” refers to their religious doctrines and philosophies which keep those kingdoms alive throughout many generations. Then the “season” would be the millennium and the “time” when those kingdoms are “prolonged” would be the time of the rebellion of Gog and Magog, which may take years or even decades to complete. Therefore, we can conclude that, when Jesus returns, He will destroy the beast's Roman kingdom, the fourth kingdom descended from Babylon. But Jesus will allow the doctrines of the first three kingdoms (the teachings upon which the beast built his fourth kingdom) to remain on earth for a thousand years. Then Jesus will crush into dust the very last of those humanistic lies and delusions.

So it seems that a knowledge of humanistic social, legal, moral, economic, political and military principles derived from the philosophical and religious world views of Greece, Persia and Babylon will survive during the millennium. Money probably will not exist during the millennium but, after a thousand years, certain wanna-be human gods will rise up and likely invent some kind of economic hierarchical system, as they seize control of land and resources. For they will need some kind of financial system which will force the people to worship them, to coerce the people into esteeming and serving them. Those wanna-be gods seem to come from southern Russia, from the place that the Bible calls Gog and Magog. And the area of ancient Gog and Magog was influenced by Babylon and Persia, then somewhat by Greece. When their primitive humanistic teachings mature, they will not be entirely like Roman humanism, but will be similar. And all the non-elect spirits born on earth to the returned spirit of Satan will gladly embrace those lies and delusions. Then Jesus will expose and destroy all those humanistic abominations, and kill the rebels, just as He told John in His Revelation.

Revelation 20:7-10 (ESV): “And when the thousand years are ended, Satan will be released

from his prison and will come out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the

earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea. And

they marched up over the broad plain of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and

the beloved city, but fire came down from heaven and consumed them, and the devil who had

deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulphur where the beast and the false

prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

Both the Revelation and Ezekiel’s prophecy indicate that Satan’s last attempt to usurp the authority of our holy God Jesus, through the armies of Gog and Magog, will be a world-wide event. That devil will come to “deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth.” So his deception, resulting in his armies surrounding of “the camp of the saints and the beloved city” of Jerusalem, will not be a local war, but experienced by everyone in the world. Therefore, the lessons Jesus will teach by condemning and crushing that rebellion will be critical for every surviving elect soul in the entire world to learn. And these lessons also will be necessary for literally all the elect to learn on the

Page 1455

final judgment day too, when they review the acts of God throughout history. Since those loveless, violent and wicked non-elect will be international rebels against God, whose “number is like the sand of the sea,” none of us should ignore how they will attempt to deceive and take control over the entire world, even after a thousand years of perfect peace and universal prosperity. We all need to carefully study this event and understand what Jesus is trying to tell us. He is saying that, even after a millennium of His wise teachings and governance, the non-elect children of Satan will not accept the truth nor let His loving justice stand unopposed. So the salvation and repentance of the non-elect is impossible under any circumstances whatsoever, because they care nothing for anyone’s welfare.

Gog and Magog, the peoples traditionally associated with south-western Russia, are relatively small nations, and likely will remain small by the end of the millennium too. Therefore, this and the other Scriptures about them suggest that not all of the multitudes joining their rebellion will come from that place. Rather, only the principal human leaders of a world-wide cult which opposes our King Jesus, will originate from the lands in Gog and Magog. But those leaders from Gog and Magog will gather disciples from all over the world to worship them as human gods. And, since they will rise up within a world-wide theocracy that has existed for a thousand years, they likely will be religious leaders, just like the despots of ancient Babylon, Persia and Greece. That is, they will not be fascist secular humanists like the Roman beast, but will create fake churches known for their hierarchical class systems and worshipped human gods. They will be much like the false synagogues and fake churches we have seen throughout history, since the days of ancient Babylon, and still see today.

The Scriptures also seem to indicate that these cult leaders will gather all their disciples in the lands of Gog and Magog, and arm them there, before they all march against Jesus and His inner priesthood of Jews in Israel, as well as against a “camp of the saints.” The words of the text suggest several details found in other prophecies: (1) The “camp” might be the Gentile elect who will visit Jerusalem each year during the Feast of the Booths, when they set up tents in the huge parks surrounding Jerusalem; (2) Since the hordes of Gog and Magog will “march” to Jerusalem, they will come by land, down from the southern end of the Black Sea, through what is now Turkey, Syria and Lebanon; (3) Since they will march together, as one army from one place, that march must occur after rebels travel from all over the world to Gog and Magog. Of course, Jerusalem will be the capital of the world then, even an ancient capital of the world, since Jesus will have ruled from there for a thousand years. Therefore, there could be only one reason for those rebels to march against Jerusalem. Gog and Magog will want conquer that city and rule the world themselves. This rebellion will be yet another attempt to achieve complete world domination by yet another humanistic empire.

Our King and God Jesus will have been dwelling in Jerusalem as the effective and trusted source of all truth and justice on earth for a thousand years. That city will be the most beloved place on earth for all God's elect because, from there, Jesus will will grant perfect peace, universal prosperity and the foundation for an abundant life of love. Even so, those rebels will think in much the same way that the past humanists did. Their dark deluded minds will think that they can rule the earth better than God, if only they could kill God and replace Him as the new gods of all the earth. Of course, history will be truthfully taught throughout the millennium at that time. But those rebels, like all the humanists of the past, will not believe true history, nor any other real truths. Instead, they will invent their own alternative history, which flatters them and supports their lies, then create all kinds of other fake “truths” which do the same. And, after all these lies and delusions are solidly “proved” in their own vain, self-serving and selfishly ambitious minds, they will murder all who oppose their “good” cause of “liberating” everyone into total slavery, so they can finally make the world “great” again.

Now all these teachings may seem strange to some religious people in our day, since there is much confusion about Satan, demons, elect human spirits, non-elect human spirits and so on. And, as previously and often mentioned, all this confusion is due to the pagan Platonic teachings in most synagogues and churches, and the rejection of God’s teachings. They do not believe that a spirit has its own mind and body within a spiritual realm, that each spirit has its own will and its own thoughts which are completely separate and often opposed to those of the mind and body of flesh. They do not know that a human spirit “in” the flesh, bound to perceptions of the flesh, is never one with the flesh.

Somehow, many also think Satan lives in hell, yet enters the material world whenever he wants to do mischief. But Satan and his fellow demons have never been to hell, not yet. Those spirits are living in the material realm like us, although they have been here much longer, since the creation of human beings. Demons are bound to perceptions of material existence in the same way we are, and cannot possibly escape from those perceptions. Like us, God highly limits Satan and his demons in all that they can or cannot do. God alone created the attributes of all spirits, then shapes and manipulates all of them. But God did let Satan create many human spirits within bodies of flesh on the earth (see Mat. 13:24-30,37-43), many loveless non-elect human spirits made in his image, whom he can delude and manipulate, but only as much as God allows. And God does let Satan cause his offspring to lie and murder whenever God’s own elect walk according to their flesh, when elect spirits refuse to heed the Holy Spirit of their Father in Jesus. But, when elect spirits listen to and learn from Jesus, and allow their spirits to be trained by Him, they definitely have an advantage over non-elect spirits. For, although infantile elect human spirits are not as powerful as demonic spirits, the elect children of God are His beloved heirs and, thus, bear access to His unlimited power, resources and wisdom.

Look to the beginning, shortly after the creation of Adam and Eve. At that time, God cast Satan and the other loveless fallen angels out of heaven, down to the earth. That is, God “handed them down to a lower place, in chains of darkness, to be guarded for judgment” (II Pet. 2:4, from: σειραῖς ζόφου ταρταρώσας παρέδωκεν εἰς κρίσιν τηρουμένους). The fallen angels were not cast into hell after they rebelled, as some English translations of II Pet. 2:4 say. Those translations are wrong, since they refuse to acknowledge the ecclesiastical meaning of ταρταρόω and its cognates in the Septuagint. In the Bible, this verb means, “to cast lower down.” So Peter actually said that God cast Satan and the demons down from heaven to a “lower place,” that is, to earth, where God kept them guarded “in chains of darkness,” bound by the perceptions or delusions which He forced those evil spirits to see.

The cognates of ταρταρόω actually could not logically refer to being “cast down into hell,” since the first time God will ever cast Satan and the demons into hell will be on the day Jesus returns. Even then, God will only lock Satan in the inescapable prison of hell for a thousand years. And, while in hell, Satan will not be able to return to the earth at all. Then Satan will not be able to darken and delude any human minds on earth or in heaven, nor give birth to any spirits of any non-elect human beings on the earth, not while he is in hell. But, after the millennium, God will release Satan again. Then Satan will give birth to non-elect spirits in human flesh and delude them. Then that devil will manipulate his own non-elect, cause them to rebel in vain against our God Jesus again, and perish.

After the millennium, our God Jesus Himself will release Satan from hell and allow him to create and waken new children on earth, causing their hearts to desire god-like power, to love the vain doctrines of his most perfectly evil religion of humanism once more. Yet again, Satan will send his non-elect offspring out to rebel against the flesh Jesus, making them blind to the almighty Holy Spirit of God in Jesus, convincing them that they can make themselves into their own gods who can control their own destinies, just as the Greeks, Persians and Babylons believed. God will allow the devil to put this vain delusion in his non-elect children and send them to die on that hopeless

Page 1457

mission. And Satan will gladly do all this because he is loveless and will do anything he can against God, no matter how petty, hopeless, stupid and destructive it might be. But God will allow Satan to cause pain and death for the temporary flesh of His elect children on earth because God know He can restore, to their eternal spirits, more than a hundred times what their flesh might lose on earth.

Our God, our heavenly Father and oldest Brother, created the temporary earthly perceptions of our spirits in order to teach spiritual principles to our eternal spirits. So the temporary pains and death of a body of earthly flesh, all the good and bad perceived feelings of all its senses, are important to our eternal spirits, and are very real creations of God. But earthly pains and the death of the flesh will be the inevitable results of sins, especially the greater sins like worshiping oneself as one’s own highest god. So let all God’s elect children realize that God alone can be our Savior from lies and sins, our only God who can deliver us from evil. For, when man is his own god, love dies in the spirit, causing one to kill and destroy. And notice how Jesus revealed to John that, after the rebellion of Gog and Magog, “the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the be beast and the false prophet were” (Rev. 20:10, ESV). So God wanted Johne to mention “the beast and the false prophet” again, when he spoke of Satan being cast into hell again. So this also suggests that the rebellion of Gog and Magog will be similar to the rebellion of the secular humanists called the beast and the false prophet. For Satan will not change or learn anything new. The rebellion of Gog and Magog will be another rebellion of humanists, but of theistic humanists this time, of false churches.

Ezekiel wrote a much longer and more detailed prophecy about Gog and Magog “in the latter years.” And God told Ezekiel that there would be peace and unwalled cities on earth in those days, since this event would occur after God said He would send “David My Servant” to be Israel’s “prince forever,” and make His “covenant of peace with them,” even “an everlasting covenant” (Ezek. 37:25-26). That is, the prophecy in Ezekiel also said the rebellion of Gog and Magog would happen long after the Messiah returned, just as the prophecy in the Revelation did. And God made it very clear in His prophecy through Ezekiel that the people of Gog and Magog would rebel because of their greed and lust for power. And this kind of materialism would obviously become a problem on earth, even for God’s elect, although all had perfect teachings. Everyone seemed to fall into complacency caused by living in perfect peace and prosperity for such a long period of time. Their spirits fell asleep and their flesh took over their lives. Therefore, God would return Satan to cause a world war, to wake up elect spirits, to focus them on His holiness and the purpose of life, His spiritual works in truth and love.

Ezekiel 38:2 to 39:22 (ESV): “Son of man, set your face toward Gog, of the land of Magog,

the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, [Meshech and Tubal seem to be in Georgia, in regions south of

western Russia. This area was also called Gog and Magog in the Bible.] and prophesy against him and

say, Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against you, O Gog, chief prince of Meshech and

Tubal. And I will turn you about and put hooks into your jaws, and I will bring you out, and

them with buckler and shield, wielding swords. Persia [Iran], Cush [Ethiopia], and Put

[Somolia] are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; Gomer [Ukraine, Southern Russia]

and all his hordes; Beth-togarmah from the uttermost parts of the north [eastern Russia, in Asia?]

will be like a cloud covering the land, you and all your hordes, and many peoples with you.

“Thus says the Lord God: On that day, thoughts will come into your mind, and you will

devise an evil scheme and say, 'I will go up against the land of unwalled villages. I will fall
