Before we can say that we have a true understanding of Matthew 24,and most of Luke 21 and Luke 17.We have to have a true understanding of Dan.9:24-27/Dan.7/Dan 8/Rev.4-21 and many more scriptures.[ see the beast is loosed]
First we have to look at Dan 9:24-27 [see Daniels seventh week in the Beast is loosed pages 1-8.]
We must understand that the tribulation period is seven years not 3 ½ years. The beast breaks the seven year covenant in the middle of the covenant after 3 ½ years then the beast will set up the desolation spoken of by Daniel the prophet in verse Mt.24:15 and the nation of Israel will flee for forty and two months or 1,260,days. At this time the beast will continue forty and two months. This is not when tribulation begins but is in the middle of it and it will be greater than the first half. Many people say Mat.24:4-12 have already been fulfilled ; each of these verses have literally been fulfilled by man but these verses are speaking of the future tribulation the first 3 ½ years.
[ Luke 21 was given to everyone at the Temple Luke 21:37 (KJV) And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.
Luke 21 has some different verses than that of Matthew 24. (Luke 21:12-19 was talking about the immediate fate of the apostles and Luke 21:17-19 the immediate war with the Romans the people of the prince not the prince/beast. Luke 20-36 The 7 year covenant Dan.9:27 being broken by the Beast in the middle of tribulation and the last 3 ½ years of tribulation and the battle of Armageddon.)Matthew24 was given only to the Apostles at the mount of Olives after they departed from the Temple Mt. 24:1]
Matthew 24:1-42 (KJV) And YahShua (Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2And YahShua (Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. [Fulfilled in 70 A.D. by the people of the prince the Romans not the prince that will come in latter times Dan. 9:26 (see Daniels seventh week in the beast is loosed pages 1-8 )] 3And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?Luke 21:12-24.and what shall be the sign of thy coming Matthew 24:4-26,37-39., and of the end of the world? Matthew 24:27-31,40-51; Matthew 25:1-46.
(present or future)[so world means age.]We must understand that they are going to be 7 years of tribulation and not just 3 ½ as some that misunderstand this chapter would have to teach if they were correct. Dan 9:24-27
The covenant will be broken in the middle and not the beginning. Even though verses 4-12 seem to have been fulfilled they have not because this is speaking of the first 3 ½ years of tribulation.
4And YahShua (Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that
no man deceive you .Many warnings against being deceived (Matthew 24:4
5,11,24; Luke 21:8; 1 Cor. 6:9; 1 Cor. 15:33; Galatians 6:7; Ephes. 5:6; 2 Thes. 2:3).
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Messiah (Messiah (Christ)); and shall deceive many. [Many have already done this but this is speaking of the tribulation period.] 6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. Yes wars have already taken place but these are all future wars spoken of here.[The end of the age is at Armageddon these wars have to take place to fulfill prophecy and lead up to the battle of Armageddon]
Rev. 6:4 (KJV) And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sWord.Daniel 11:40-41 (KJV) And at the time of the end shall the king of the south push at him: and the king of the north shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over. 41He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.[The king of the north is syria and the king of the south is Egypt and the kingdoms of the north and east are Russia and China and others these kingdoms are north and east of Syria.] Daniel 7:24 (KJV) And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings. [The beast/antchrist kingdom defeats three of the ten kingdoms in the first 3 ½ years of tribulation. During the treaty with Israel and many nations.]
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. [Dan 11:40-44/Dan 7:24 same as verse 6.] Rev. 6:6-8 (KJV) And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. [ This is symbolic of famine]7And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sWord, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Rev. 6:12 (KJV) And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; Rev. 8:5 (KJV) And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows. ,
[birthpains of the Jews .
Rev. 12:1-2 (KJV) And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: 2And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
[ see the woman clothed with the sun.]
9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. [The Jews are hated among many nations today and this hatred will grow greater and greater as time goes on and even worse during the tribulation.]
10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Zech. 13:2 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the YahWeh ( LORD) of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered: and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.[This is speaking of the false prophets during the tribulation and that day is when YahShua (Jesus comes at the battle of Armageddon to judge the nations and the people who will fight at that battle.]
Zech. 13:4 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the prophets shall be ashamed every one of his vision, when he hath prophesied; neither shall they wear a rough garment to deceive: Deut. 18:20 But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a Word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. [Because of witchcraft ,Satan and beast worship the love of many shall wax cold.]
13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. [The end of the age not the resurrection but at the battle of Armageddon when YahShua (Jesus comes in all his glory with all the saints and all the Angels of Heaven. We must also endure until the end of ones life and we must also endure until the resurrection of the church.We have to understand that there will be eternal generations of natural people living on into the 1,000 year reign of Messiah (Messiah (Christ)) ( see Eternal Generations of natural people] 14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. [ The pure gospel has been lost and is not preached today by man so (Eloheem God) will have to use an Angel to fulfill this prophecy and this will not be done until the Tribulation. And then the end of the age will come at Armageddon when YahShua (Jesus sets up his kingdom here on earth.]
Rev. 14:6 (KJV) And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
15When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place,
(whoso readeth, let him understand:)
This is in the middle of tribulation after 3 ½ years when the beast brakes the 7 year covenant in the middle Daniel 9:27
Dan. 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Daniel 8:9-14 (KJV) And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land. 10And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. 11Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.
12And an host was given him against the daily sacrifice by reason of transgression, and it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised, and prospered. The little horn is the beast,antichrist prince that shall come and so many more names. [see the beast in the beast is loosed]
16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: This literally happened in 70 AD. BUT this is talking about during the time the beast o/r the prince that will come will seek to destroy them. Rev. 12:6 (KJV) And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of (Eloheem God), that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days. [The woman is the nation of Israel see the woman clothed with the Sun.]
Isaiah 16:1-4 (KJV) Send ye the lamb to the ruler of the land from Sela to the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion. 2For it shall be, that, as a wandering bird cast out of the nest, so the daughters of Moab shall be at the fords of Arnon. 3Take counsel, execute judgment; make thy shadow as the night in the midst of the noonday; hide the outcasts; bewray not him that wandereth. 4Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler: for the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed out of the land. Daniel 11:41 (KJV) He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.
17Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: [Because he will be overtaken by the armies of the beast.] 18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
[ Because he will be over taken by the armies of the beast/a.c. ] 19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! [ Because it will be hard to escape the armies of the beast if they are with child. ] 20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: [ Because the orthodox Jews hold it unlawful to travel more than a mile on that day (Acts 1:12), so they would be overtaken by the beast armies.]
21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. [ This is not the beginning of the tribulation but the middle of it. The beast does not set up the desolation in the Temple until the middle of tribulation. Because the beast will break the seven year covenant with many nations after the first 3 ½ years or in the middle of tribulation. Daniel 9:27 (KJV) And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
Then will seek to destroy Mystery Babylon Rev.17 ( see Mystery Babylon in The Beast is loosed ) and the nation of Israel Rev.12 (see the woman clothed with the sun.) and the peace treaty will be broken and the last 3 ½ years of tribulation will be greater because of the persecution on the people. ]
22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. [The persecution itself will be cut short, not the 1260 days themselves (Rev. 11:1-3; Rev. 12:6,14; Rev. 13:5; Daniel 12:7) [elect's sake] Jews, not the Church because:
1. YahShua (Jesus is answering a Jewish question (Matthew 24:3; Matthew 25:31-46; Acts 1:6)
2. False Messiahs primarily concern Israel (Matthew 24:5,23-26)
3. Anti-semitism proves it (Matthew 24:9)
4. The travail of Israel (note, § Matthew 24:8)
5. The abomination of desolation concerns Israel only (note, § Matthew 24:15)
6. The Jewish temple (note, § Matthew 24:15)
7. Flight of Israel (notes, § Matthew 24:16)
8. The sabbath is Jewish (note, § Matthew 24:20)
9. The great tribulation (note, § Matthew 24:21)
10. Jews are the only people to be gathered (note, § Matthew 24:31)
11. The coming of Messiah (Messiah (Christ)) is to deliver Israel (Matthew 24:29-31; Matthew 25:31-46; Zech. 14)
12. Judgment of the nations is based on treatment of Israel (Matthew 25:31-46)
13. The eagles eating carcasses was predicted to be at the time of Israel's deliverance (Matthew 24:28; Ezekiel 39:17-22; Luke 17:34-37; Rev. 19:17-21)
14. The church will be raptured before the above events (see The Hinderer of wickedness, and The first Resurrection in the Beast is loosed.)
(Eloheem God) will not shorten the amount of days When (Eloheem God) gives a certain amount of days then it will not be changed but this means that he will shorten the persecution ; he will do this by the kingdoms of east and the north declaring war on the beast.]
Daniel 11:44 (KJV) But tidings out of the east and out of the north shall trouble him: therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.
[ The beast/antichrist will have to take his focus off the Jews and fight these kingdoms and he will eventually defeat them and become their chief prince the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal. ]
Ezekiel 38:2 (KJV) Son of man, set thy face against Gog, the land of Magog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, and prophesy against him, [ see the beast and Armageddon ]
23Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Messiah (Messiah (Christ)), or there; believe it not. 24For there shall arise false Messiah (Messiah (Christ))s, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Satanic powers will be manifest in the tribulation (2 Thes. 2:7-12; Rev. 13:1-18; Rev. 16:13-16; Rev. 19:20; Daniel 8:24).
25Behold, I have told you before. 26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
[The Muslimss are expecting their Messiah to come from the Desert.]
27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
[Coming at the battle of Armageddon to set up his kingdom here on earth.]
1. As lightning (Matthew 24:27)
2. With destruction (Matthew 24:38-51; Matthew 25:31-46; 1 Thes. 5:2; 2 Thes. 1:7-10; 2 Thes. 2:8; Jude 1:14-15; Zech. 14; Rev. 19:11-21)
3. Visibly (Matthew 24:29-31; 2 Thes. 1:7-10; Rev. 1:7; Rev. 19:11-21; Zech. 14)
4. In brightness and fire (2 Thes. 1:7-10; 2 Thes. 2:8; Ezekiel 38:17-21; Malachi 4:1-6)
5. In vengeance and wrath (Rev. 14:14-20; Rev. 19:11-21; Jude 1:14-15; 2 Thes. 1:7-10)
6. With power and great glory (Matthew 16:27; Matthew 24:27-31; Matthew 25:31-46)
7. With saints and angels (Zech. 14:5; Matthew 24:29-31; Matthew 25:31-46; 1 Thes. 1:7-10; Jude 1:14; Rev. 17:14; Rev. 19:14)
8. With clouds (Matthew 24:29-31; Matthew 26:64; Rev. 1:7; Daniel 7:13-14)
9. As Judge and King (Rev. 19:11-21; Isaiah 11; Zech. 14; Matthew 25:31-46)
10. As a thief (1 Thes. 5:2-4; Rev. 16:15)
28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. [ This is talking about the battle of Armageddon ] Rev. 19:17-18 (KJV) And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great (Eloheem God); 18That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. Ezekiel 39:17 (KJV) And, thou son of man, thus saith the YahWeh ( LORD) (Eloheem God); Speak unto every feathered fowl, and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.
Where the dead bodies are slain at Armageddon the birds will be gathered together to eat them (Job 39:30; Ezekiel 39:17-22; Luke 17:34-37; Rev. 19:17-21). Isaiah 66:24 (KJV) And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neith er shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.
The rapture/resurrection will have taken place years before this (see the first resurrection). Messiah (Christ)) is not a dead carcass nor are the saints eagles to be caught up to such a carcass. This is not in the air, but on earth (Ezekiel 39:17; Rev. 19:11-21).
29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: Joel 2:2 (KJV) A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. [ At the battle of ARMAGEDDON ] Rev. 19:11-21 (KJV) And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. 12His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. 13And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of (Eloheem God). 14And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. 15And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sWord, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty (Eloheem God). 16And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND YAHWEH ( LORD) OF ( LORD)S.
[ This is the gathering of the nations the goat nations, the gathering of the nations to the judgment of nations (Mt. 25:31-46; Dan. 7:9-14). Blessed are the people who will live through the battle of Armageddon and meet the conditions of escaping death at the judgment of the nations and be allowed to enter the kingdom (Mt. 25:31-46).]
31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.Isaiah 11:11-12 (KJV) And it shall come to pass in that day, that the YahWeh ( LORD) shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. 12And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
32Now learn a parable of the fig tree;[ The fig tree is the nation of Israel ] When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, [ When Israel becomes a nation again with a Government in Jerusalem. This happened in 1948. ]
ye know that summer is nigh: [ Summer is symbolic of Harvest ] 33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34Verily I s ay unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. [ The generation that is alive in 1948 will not pass away until all be fulfilled (see the first resurrection )
All the things that will be fulfilled by the time of his second coming to the earth at the battle of Armageddon to set up his kingdom here on earth.= 1. The resurrection of the church into the resurrection of Life the second part of the first resurrection. 2. The resurrection of the 144,000 Jews into the resurrection of Life in the middle of tribulation. 3. The resurrection of the tribulation saints into the resurrection of Life 4. The seven years of tribulation completed. 5. The second coming of YahShua (Jesus with all the saints and all his angels at the battle of Armageddon to set up his kingdom. ]
35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my Words shall not pass away. [ They shall only be changed from one condition to another. The same meaning as when we are born again] Psalm 102:25-26 (KJV) Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. 26They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:
Heb.1:10-12 And, Thou, YahWeh ( LORD), in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: 11They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; 12And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and thy years shall not fail.
36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. [ Because of witchcraft, Satan and beast worship during the tribulation man will be as evil as the days of Noah.] 38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; [ Took means destroyed; destroyed them all as stated in Luke 17:27 (KJV) They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. ] so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.[ The second coming OF YahShua (Jesus to the Earth at the battle of Armageddon not the resurrection of the church.] 40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken,[Most people use this scripture for the resurrection of the church but that is false even though this will happen at the resurrection this has a different meaning. Taken means destroyed so,
one will be destroyed at the battle of Armageddon] and the other left.
[ The other will be left to live on into the 1,000 year reign of Messiah (Christ)) the ones that are left will be 1/6th. of the beast armies ] Ezekiel 39:2 (KJV) And I will turn thee back, and leave but the sixth part of thee, and will cause thee to come up from the north parts, and will bring thee upon the mountains of Israel: Zech. 14:16 (KJV) And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the YahWeh ( LORD) of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.
Isaiah 66:19 (KJV) And I will set a sign among them, and I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul, and Lud, that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off, that have not heard my fame, neither have seen my glory; and they shall declare my glory among the Gentiles.
[All these will escape the wrath of (Eloheem God) because they were forced to be their and didnt do anything to the Jews or the Christians.]
41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left. [Same meaning as verse 40.]
42Watch therefore: [ Watch means to stay awake and focussed on (Eloheem God). ] for ye know not what hour your YahWeh ( LORD) doth come.
Rev.12 Expounded
The Woman clothed with the Sun
Is Jewish
1. The same symbol was referred to by Jacob as the nation of Israel
(Gen. 37:9-11).
2. Israel is referred to as the wife of Eloheem (God) a woman, in Isa. 54:1-6; Jer. 3; Hos. 2:14-18.
3. The woman in travail of the Rev. 12 is the same thing as the travail of Israel in Isa. 66:7-8; Mic. 5:3-10; Jer. 4:31; 6:24; 13:21; 30:7; Mt. 24:8, 15-22; Dan. 12:1.
4. The woman being persecuted and in flight of Rev. 12 refers to the defeat of Israel and their flight in the middle tribulation or the middle of Daniels 70th week, which was predicted in Isa. 16:1-5; Ps. 60; Ezek. 20:33-44; Dan. 9:27; 11:40-45; Jer. 30:6-7; Hos. 2:14-18; Mt. 24:15-22
5. The woman is also the constellation named in Hebrew Betulah or Greek Virgo see the day of Atonement the birth of Messiah Christ
Ten Proofs the Manchild Is Jewish
and Is the 144,000 Jews
(but they are not the Woman)
Proof 1
Since the woman clothed the sun-of Rev. 12 is Jewish, as proved above, then the manchild that she produces must also be Jewish. This is verified by the fact that Eloheem (God)s unfailing law is that everything produces after his own kind (Gen. 1:11-12, 21-25; 6:20; 7:14; Lev. 11:14-29; Dt. 14:13-18; Jas. 3:7). A Jewish mother then produces a Jewish child, and such is the case of the woman of Rev. 12 and her child.
Proof 2
The manchild is Jewish so we must find some Jews to fit the requirementswe can identify them in Rev. 4:1 - 22:21, in the events that both Eloheem (God) and Christ said must be after the churches of Rev. 1-3. The 144,000 Jews are the only ones that could possibly be the manchild, Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4; 12:5; 14:1-5. The 144,000 are seen sealed and with the Fathers name in their forehead . Rev. 7:3 ;Rev. 14:1. The seal is literally the Fathers name written on their forehead and is not, as some teach, the keeping of Saturday as the sabbath. We can see also in (Rev. 7:2-3) that these servents will be sealed in their forehead . It was said to the first four trumpet judgment angels to hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our Eloheem (God) in their foreheads Special direction was given to the fifth and sixth trumpet judgment angels not to hurt the 144,000 Jews (Rev. 9:4).
They arecaught up to Eloheem (God) and to his throne In Rev. 12:5 and seen as the manchild. After this we find the 144,000 in heaven (Rev. 14:1-5), and we see that they are in Heaven singing a song that no man can sing .The 144,000 which were redeemed [and resurrected] from [out from/away from] the earth and we see that they are without fault before the throne of Eloheem (God).
Proof 3
Some teach that the woman is the virgin Mary and not Israel as a nation, while others teach that she is the church, or Christendom. And some teach that the birth of the manchild is a record of the historical birth of Christ by Mary, and the manchild being caught up to Eloheem (God) is a reference to the historical ascension of Christ to heavenevents that had happened some 65 years before John wrote the book of Revelation.
The birth of and the catching away of the manchild (in Rev. 12) are events that are to occur in the very middle of the things which must be after the churches.
Therefore, it would be erroneous to bring such historical facts into the prophecies that are yet to be fulfilledand there is no need to do this when we have clear evidence of a Jewish manchild being produced by a Jewish mother at the time designated for these events, in the future.
It is often taught that Christ is the manchild of Rev. 12 because the manchild will rule the nations with a rod of iron (Rev. 12:5), and the same is predicted of Christ in Ps. 2:9. But it must be remembered that all the redeemed and raptured saints of all ages, those who have a part in the first resurrection, will also live and reign with Christ with a rod of iron. Rev. 2:26-27 states clearly that he that overcometh, and keepth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron. See also Ps. 149:6-9; Dan. 7:18, 22, 27; 1 Cor. 6; Rev. 5:10; 20:4-6. Therefore, the manchild is only one among many who will rule with a rod of iron. He can and will fulfill Rev. 12:5.
Proof 4
The manchild symbolizes a living company of Jewsnot a company wherein some of them are dead and awaiting a resurrection as in the case of the rapture of the church. They are all alive and will be raptured alive as the manchild of Rev. 12:5; Isa. 66:7-8; Dan. 12:1. No woman could bring forth a part-dead and part-living child. In Rev. 12:1-4 we see the dragon standing before the woman hoping to devour her child as soon as it is born, but he is defeated in his purpose because the manchild is raptured immediately at birth. Then the woman, the main part of the nation of Israel left after this rapture of the manchild or 144,000, will flee into the wilderness (Rev. 12:6, 14; Isa. 16:1-5; Ezek. 20:33-44; Hos. 2:14-18; Mt. 24:15-22).
Proof 5
An examination of Rev. 7 and 14 shows the 144,000 of Israel to be the same company of people who are symbolized by the manchild. The sealing of both companies in the forehead (Rev. 7:1-3; 14:1), the uniqueness of their number (Rev. 7:4; 14:1), and their history prove this. In Rev. 7 and 14 we also have their origin, destiny, time of rapture, place and position in heaven, and their occupation around the throne of Eloheem (God) (Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4; 12:5; 14:1-5).
Proof 6
The time of the rapture of the manchild proves that the reference is to the 144,000 who are caught up to Eloheem (God) and to His throne. They are to be raptured in order to be in heaven in fulfillment of Rev. 14:1-5 after remaining on earth to fulfill every scripture about them which requires fulfillment before the catching up of the manchild (Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4; 12:5). This rapture is at the time of the seventh trumpet and the casting of Satan out of heaven (Rev. 11:15; 12:7-12), and 1,260 days before the second advent (Rev. 12:5-6,14; 13:5). Recognizing the manchild and the 144,000 to be the same company of people, solves all problems regarding the subject. Otherwise, the history of the manchild is not complete, and various questions remain. How and when are the 144,000 to be raptured? And, where is the account of their rapture?
Proof 7
The place where the 144,000 are seen to bethe heavenly mount Sionproves that they were translated as the manchild to heaven (Rev. 14:1-5; Heb. 11:10-16; 12:22-23; 13:14; Jn. 14:1-3).
Proof 8
The protection of the 144,000 on earth (Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4), and their privileges and blessings shown to occur in heaven after the catching up of the manchild, prove that all these events take place with the same people, and at the same time (Rev. 14:1-5). This proves they are a separate and distinct company from all other groups of redeemed.
Proof 9
The 144,000 are to be firstfruits unto Eloheem (God) and the Lamb (Rev. 14:4), so they must be saved and raptured after the firstfruits of Israel in the N.T. church who were saved about 2,000 years before. The 144,000 are to be the first Jews saved after the church is completed and after its rapture which is before the events of Rev. 4:1 - 19:21 begin to be fulfilledevents which must be after the churches.
The 144,000 Cannot Be the Woman Or the Remnant Because:
1. The woman symbolizes the whole nation of Israel in Judea in the last days, whereas the manchild, or 144,000, symbolizes a smaller part of the nation, and the remnant of the woman refers to a few who will be left in Judea. When Antichrist breaks his covenant with Israel and defeats them in battle, the woman, or main body of Israel in Judea, will flee into the mountains (Mt. 24:15-22; Rev. 12:6, 14); the 144,000, or every saved person in Israel at that time, will be raptured (Isa. 66:7-8; Dan. 12:1; Rev. 12:5); and the remnant of Israel will remain in their own land, not fleeing from the Antichrist (Rev. 12:17).
2. The woman and the remnant will remain earthly people, while the 144,000 will become heavenly (Rev. 12:1-17; 14:1-5).
3. The woman and the remnant will be in travail, while the 144,000 will not be (Isa. 66:7-8; Dan. 12:1; Rev. 12:1-17).
1. The woman will bring forth a manchildthe 144,000but neither the remnant nor the 144,000 are to bring forth such a child (Rev. 12:1-5; Isa. 66:7-8).
5. A company (the 144,000) will be taken from the woman to heaven, whereas the woman herself and the remnant will be left on earth (Rev. 12:6, 13-17). They cannot and will not be caught up to Eloheem (God) and to His throne as the 144,000 will be (Rev. 12:5; 14:1-5).
6. Neither the number of those in the company symbolized by the woman, nor the number of those in the remnant is given, but the number of the manchild is144,000 (Rev. 7:1-8; 14:1-5).
7. Neither the woman nor the remnant are sealed for protection, while the 144,000 will be (Rev. 7:1-8; 14:1-5). Neither the woman nor the remnant will be protected from the plagues of the trumpets, but the manchild (the 144,000) will be (Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4; 12:5).
8. The 144,000 are not seen or mentioned as being on earth after the rapture of the manchild, but the woman and remnant are (Rev. 12:1-4, 6-17).
9. The manchild or the 144,000 escape the dragon by rapture (Rev. 12:5), while the woman and her remnant will escape by the earth swallowing up one of Satans armies (Rev. 12:13-17), and by Eloheem (God) causing Antichrist to turn his efforts away from them until later (Dan. 11:44; Mt. 24:22).
10. The manchildthe 144,000will have their names written in the book of life and will be ready for rapture out of the great tribulation, while the woman and remnant are not to be saved until later (Isa. 66:7-8; Dan. 12:1; Rev. 7:1-8; 9:4; 12:5; 14:1-5).
Proof 10
The constellation Betulah gave birth to the Messiah on the day of Atonement in the Hebrew callander year 3758.The sane Betulah will give birth again in the Heavens when the manchild is born again during the tribulation see thr day of Atonement the birth of the Messiah.Christ
1.Israel is often spoken of as a woman married/betrothed to Eloheem (God) under the terms of the old covenant (Isaiah 54:1-6; Jeremiah 3:1-14; Hosea 2:14-23).
2.The church is more often referred to in masculine language, as the body of Christ.
Furthermore, the church is already resurrected at this point (see the 1st.resurrection)).
Therefore, the church could not be the woman clothed with the sun- of Rev. 12.
3.The Bible mentions only 3 classes of people today: the church, the Jews, and the
Gentiles (1 Cor. 10:32). At the middle of Daniel's 70th week when the woman
travails and brings forth the man-child, the church has been gone from the earth for
at least 3 1/2 years (see the 1st. resurrection). This leaves only 2 classes after the rapture:
Jews and Gentiles. The woman could not symbolize the Gentiles, because they are
the ones persecuting her.
Therefore, the woman must symbolize national Israel. By the term "Israel" we mean national Israel, or Israel as a nation, not as scattered among the nations. Israel now has been a nation since 1948. Many Jews will continue in all lands until they are completely gathered at the second coming (Matthew 24:29-31; Isaiah 11:11-12; Ezekiel 37).
4.The Word Woman in the bible is always used as one of three things and never anything else. 1. A real woman. 2. A City 3. A Kingdom
We have got to stay within the parameters that the Word of Eloheem (God) gives us to understand its meaning.(See Mystery Babylon for the interpretation of the Word Woman in the Word of Eloheem (God).)
5.Israel is the one primarily dealt with in Rev. 4-19, not the church (see the first resurrection).
6.The sun, moon, and 12 stars symbolize Israel, as proved in Genesis 37:9-11.
7.The Jews are the only people in Scripture spoken of as going through travail in the
last days (Rev. 12:2-5; Matthew 24:8; Mark 13:8; Isaiah 66:7-8; Jeremiah 30:6-9;
Micah 5:3; Zech. 12:10-13:1).
8.Israel is identified as the woman by the wars against her and her seed. The same
predictions of this woman are found in connection with Israel in the Old Testament
so they must be the same (Daniel 7:21; Daniel 8:9-14,24-25; Daniel 9:27; Daniel
11:40-45; Daniel 12:1,7; Joel 3; Zech. 12:1-9; Zech. 13:8-9; Zech. 14:1-21).
9.The whole 70th week of Daniel 9:27 concerns Israel and Jerusalem, as did the first
69 weeks (Daniel 9:24-27). The church was not once mentioned in connection with
these last day events.
10.The persecution, flight, and protection of the woman in the wilderness prove her to
be Israel (Rev. 12:6,13-16).
(1)Isaiah (Isaiah 16:1-5) predicts the flight of Israel into Moab and Edom, and
mentions Sela (see Sela below (5).), the ancient capital of Edom as their
headquarters during tribulation. The church is not the subject of any Old Testament
prophecy.
(2)Isaiah (Isaiah 26:20-21) predicts the protection of Israel until the indignation
(tribulation) be past.
(3)Isaiah (Isaiah 63:1-5) pictures Christ in His second coming as descending from
the direction of Edom where the Israelites are to be protected .
(4)Isaiah (Isaiah 42:11-13) speaking of the YahWeh(LORD) coming to earth to prevail over His enemies predicts that the Jews in the wilderness and the rock (see Sela) will
sing of Him.
(5)Psalms (Psalm 60:6-12; Psalm 108:8-13) predict that Eloheem (God) will reserve Edom from the Antichrist and refer to the leading of Israel into the strong city .
Sela
The "strong city" in Psalm 60:9; Psalm 108:10 is Sela, the rock-hewn stronghold capital
of Edom (2 Kings 14:7; Isaiah 16:1). The Hebrew: cela (HSN-5553) is translated
rock 57 times. Its Greek equivalent is petra (GSN-4073).
It is mentioned several times as "the rock" (Judges 1:36; Isaiah 42:11; Jeremiah 48:28; Jeremiah 49:16; Obadiah 1:3).
It is also called Bozrah (Isaiah 34:5-6; Isaiah 63:1-5; Jeremiah 48:24; Jeremiah
49:13,22; Amos 1:12). The ancients called it Bozrah of the rock.
Today it is referred to as the silent city of the forgotten past, and the rose-red city (for the
variety of red hues), half as old as time. It lies halfway between the Dead Sea and the
Gulf of Aqaba. It gives a feeling of awe to the minds of those who know it. It has only one approach through a deep rock cleft 6,000 ft. long. It has nearly 1,000
caves, cut into the rock of the great cliffs surrounding the whole city. There are high
places, courts, libation basins, and altars where the ancients worshiped. It has places of
defense where one man could defend against an army. Over 1,000 monuments reveal
the influence of several occupations. An open theater seats 6,000 There are numerous. runlets, aqueducts, basins, reservoirs, and cisterns where water has been stored in time of siege, and several springs supply water for the city. The Mountain of Aaron has a mosque built on it in whose "Holy of Holies" Aaron is supposed to be buried. For centuries Sela was a rich caravan city with a strong international trade. Goods were brought for storage in Petra and rerouted to Arabia, Africa, India, and other lands. The
city was so important that the Romans made two roads to tap its wealth. When Rome
fell, its doom was sealed and Sela was virtually abandoned, except for a few desert
tribesmen. It passed unnoticed by the civilized world for more than 1,000 years. In
1812, John Lewis Burckhardt, disguised as a Bedouin sheik, reached it and returned to
tell of its mysteries. It had then become sacred to the Arabs and danger threatened any
infidel who approached. The country was opened to travel by the British after World War I. The Bedouins fought British plans to make a road to Sela, complaining that the road would deprive them of income from renting saddle animals to Sela visitors. Britain agreed that no road should be built beyond Elji and that animals would be hired for the last part of the trip to Sela. Thus, the Bedouins have kept modern transportation from the city, which remains as preserved as in ancient times. Sela is the central place to be reserved for the Israelites when they flee from Judea after Antichrist breaks his covenant with them by taking over Palestine during the last three and a half years of this age.
(6)Ezekiel (Ezekiel 20:33-44) speaks of Israel being gathered back from the
nations in the last days and of her going into the wilderness where Eloheem (God) will
plead with her as He did when she came out of Egypt. The two witnesses of
Rev. 11 will be the "Moses and Aaron" of those days.
(7)Daniel (Daniel 11:36) reveals the conquest of many countries, including
Palestine, but predicts that Edom, Moab, and Ammon will escape him (the
Antichrist). This is the place reserved of Eloheem (God) for Israel to be protected in the
wilderness 3 1/2 years (Rev. 12:6,14).
(8)Hosea (Hosea 2:14-23) speaks of the wilderness where Israel will flee from the
Antichrist.
(9)Matthew (Matthew 24:15-22) predicts the Antichrist breaking his 7-year
covenant with Israel (Daniel 9:27), the setting up of the abomination of
desolation in the temple at Jerusalem, and the flight of Israel from Judea into the
mountains or wilderness during the great tribulation.
(10)Revelation (Rev. 12:6,13-16) makes the final prediction of Israel going into the
wilderness to be protected 3 1/2 years from the Antichrist.
There are four great prophecies that we must understand along with Daniels predictions before we can fully comprehend latter-day events as they relate to the many scriptures on the rapture and the second advent. They are: Ezek. 38-39; Mt. 24-25; 2 Th. 2; and the book of Revelation.
Ezek. 38-39 is generally interpreted as referring to a war between Russia and Israel sometime before the future tribulation and before the battle of Armageddon which takes place at the second advent of Messiah (Christ). But the truth is that this whole prophecy will be fulfilled at Armageddon. No war, as described in these chapters, will be fought between Russia (or any other country) and Israel until the time of the second coming of Messiah (Christ), and then it will be a one-day battle between Messiah (Christ) and Antichrist. It will also fulfill Isa. 63:1-5; 64:1-5; Joel 2-3; Zech. 14; Mt. 24:29-31; 2 Th. 1:7-10; Jude 14-15; Rev. 14:14-20; 16:13-16; 19:11-21. Note the following proofs.
2. Just because Russia is the farthest north of any nation does not prove her to be the king of the north spoken of in Dan. 11:40-45. If it did, then where are the countries still north of Russia which are predicted in this passage to make war on the king of the north? It is impossible for Russia to be the king of the north referred to in Dan. 11:40-45. We must look for such a king elsewhereone that can fulfill this prophecy by being south of Russia and still north of Israel. The answer is found in Syria. For Syria is north of Israel, but Russia is still further northin a position to wage war with the king of the north (Syria) in the end time.
1. He comes from the Roman Empire territory after the ten kingdoms are formed inside that empire (Dan. 7:7-8, 23-24; 8:7-9, 20-23).
2. He comes from one of the four divisions of the old Grecian Empire, which will become four kingdoms of the ten kingdoms of Dan. 7 (Dan. 8:7-9, 20-23).
1. He conquers the countries north and east of the Roman Empire territory, but
originates from Syria (Dan. 11:36-45). He becomes her chief prince after he has defeated her Dan 11:44. He will bring Russia and many other kingdoms to Armageddon as defeated kingdoms. This is why many will escape Eloheem (God)s wrath at Armageddon ,because many will be forced to be their but dont do anything to justify Eloheem (God)s judgment of eternal death on them.Eze39:2,Isa.66:19,Zech.14:16.
4. At least 38 predictions in Ezekiel identify these chapters as being fulfilled at Armageddon at the second advent, and not at the time of some hypothetical war between Israel and Russia happening before the tribulation and the second advent. The predictions include: both Israel and many other nations getting to know Eloheem (God) from the time of this battle onward (38:16; 39:6-7, 21-25, 27); no more pollution of Eloheem (God)s name (39:7); Eloheem (God) glorified by all nations (39:13, 21); Israel saved from Gentile domination forever (39:26-29); Israel completely regathered from all nations (39:28); the Holy Spirit poured out upon Israel (39:29); Israel never again to be afraid of other nations (39:26); Eloheem (God) never again to hide His face from Israel (39:29); Eloheem (God)s name to be sanctified among the heathen (39:7); men to see Eloheem (God) bodily and in person (38:18-22; 39:1-6, 17-24); and all the heathen to know Eloheem (God) from this time forward into all eternity (39:23; Rev. 21-22).
These predictions could not be fulfilled before the end of the tribulation and the second advent (Zech. 14; Mt. 24:29-31; 25:31-46; 2 Th. 1:7-10; Jude 14-15; Rev. 19:11-21; see also many similar statements in Ezek. 16:62; 17:24; 20:38-44; 30:8, 19, 25-26; 34:27-30; 35:9; 36:11-36; 37:6-28). The predictions relate therefore to Armageddon and not to a war between Russia and Israel before Antichrist) conquers the many countries in the north and east, forcing the Russians and other nations to cooperate with him at Armageddon (Ezek. 38-39; Zech. 14; Rev. 16:1-16; 19:11-21).
5. Gog and his armies of Ezek. 38-39 falling upon the open field to make a great supper for the birds and beasts is exactly the same as in Rev. 14:12-20; 19:11-21; Mt. 24:28, 37-42; Lk. 17:34-37 which pictures the battle of Armageddon (Ezek. 38:3-5; 39:4, 17-25).
6. Eloheem (God) predicts that the armies of Gog in Ezek. 38:20-22; 39:6 would become so confused that they would destroy one another. The same is stated of the armies of the Antichrist) at Armageddon (Zech. 14:4, 10).
1. Ezek. 38-39 predicts and describes something more than an ordinary war between two earthly nations, such as Russia and Israel. It depicts what is mainly a supernatural war between Satan, his angels and demons, with Antichrist) and his earthly armies on one side, and YahShua,(Jesus) His angels, the resurrected saints, and Israel on the other side. Supernatural and miraculous things will be happening on both sides, as is clear in Zech. 14; Joel 2-3; Mt. 16:27; 24:29-31; 25:31-46; 2 Th.1:7-10; 2:7-12; Jude 14-15; Rev. 16:13-21; 19:11-21.
It will be the last war on earth before the Millennium, the real Armageddonthe fourth and last of four great wars between now and then.
1. The war causing Antichrist from Syria to overthrow three of the ten kingdoms which will cause the other six to surrender to him without any further battle (Dan. 7:7-8, 19-25; 8:7-14, 20-23; 11:40-45; Rev. 17:8-17). This war will last for 31/2 years or during the first half of Daniels 70th week, after which Antichrist will be given power over the whole ten kingdoms for 42 months (Dan. 7:7-8, 19-25; 12:7; Rev. 13:5; 17:8-17).
2. The war between Antichrist) and the countries north and east of his ten kingdoms (Dan. 11:44). This will be during the last 31/2 years of Daniels 70th week, and will include time for the mobilization of the nations for Armageddon where they hope to stop Messiah (Christ) from landing on the planet earth, and also plan to annihilate Israel (Zech. 14:1-15; Rev. 16:13-21; 19:11-21).
3. The Battle of Armageddon itself, which will be only one day longthe day Messiah (Christ) lands on the mount of Olives to defeat and to destroy the vast armies of the nations that will be under Gog (Ezek. 38-39; Isa. 63:1-5; 64:1-5; Joel 2-3; Zech. 14; Mt. 24:29-31; 2 Th. 1:7-10; 2:8-12; Jude 14-15; Rev. 16:13-21, 19:11-21).
8. There are to be two invasions of Israel by Gog, the Antichrist from the Syria section of the Roman and Grecian Empires. Therefore, it is not Russia that will fulfill the scriptures of both Daniel and Revelation.
The first invasion of Israel by the Antichrist) is to be in the middle of Daniels 70th week when he breaks his seven-year covenant with Israel (Dan. 9:27; 11:40-43; Mt. 24:15-22; Rev. 12:1-17). At this point he suddenly defeats Israel, taking over their city and temple, and declares himself to be a Eloheem (God) (Dan. 7:21-22, 25; Mt. 24:15-22; 2 Th. 2:1-4; Rev. 11:1-2; 12:1-17). Israel flees into the wilderness of Jordan where she is to be protected by Eloheem (God) from the Antichrist) for 31/2 years (Isa. 16:1-5; Ps. 108; Mt. 24:15-22; Ezek. 20:33-44; Hos. 2:14-18; Rev. 11:1-2). The two witnesses appear on earth to lead and protect Israel by miraculous powers (Rev. 11:2-12; Mal. 4:5-6; Zech. 4:14). An army of the Antichrist fighting Israel at that time will literally be swallowed up by the earth (Rev. 12:6-17). At that point, the combined nations of the north and east will make war on Antichrist (Dan. 11:44) who will break off his main effort to follow Israel into the wilderness, planning to come back against Israel after he conquers the armies of the north and east, which he does in less than 31/2 years, thus fulfilling Ezek. 38-39
This will be in time to meet Messiah (Christ) in battle at the second advent (Zech. 14; Rev. 19:19-21). This is how Eloheem (God) shortens the great tribulation of Israel in the last 31/2 years (Mt. 24:22). It is the intensity of the great tribulation that Eloheem (God) cuts short, not the length of the period itself.
The second invasion of Israel by Gog, or the Antichrist, will be at the end of the great tribulation after he has conquered the countries of the north and east during the 42 months of his reign (Dan. 11:44; Rev. 13:5).
During this timetoward the end of this tribulationIsrael, by the help of Eloheem (God) and the two witnesses, will regain possession of Jerusalem.
Then Gog (Antichrist) will come down from the north and east with his vast armies to retake Jerusalem and hope to annihilate Israel.
He will regain Jerusalem and take half of the city captive (Zech. 14:1-9). Then suddenly Messiah (Christ) will appear from heaven with all His raptured saints and His angels, and will defeat Antichrist and all his armies in one day of battleArmageddon. Messiah (Christ) will proceed to set up the judgment of the nations and also regather Israel from all the earth (Mt. 24:29-31; 25:31-46; Isa. 11:11-12; Zech. 14; Ezek. 38-39; 2 Th. 1:7-10; 2:8-12; Jude 14-15; Rev. 16:13-21; 19:11-21).
9. The complete regathering of Israel, Eloheem (God)s elect, from all nations after the battle of Ezek. 38-39 proves that these two chapters refer in detail to the battle of Armageddon at the second advent, and not to some pre-tribulation invasion of Israel by Russia. Eloheem (God) says He will restore them to their original land of promise (Ezek. 39:25-29). Restoring the captivity of Israel here is the same as that in Isa. 11:11-12 and many other passages, as we quote in Fallacy 5, Chapter 9. After this regathering Israel will dwell safely in her own land (Ezek. 39:26). If Ezek. 38-39 became fulfilled in a war between Russia and Israel years before Armageddon, then why would Israel have to go through the greatest of all tribulations during the last 31/2 years of this age? Why would she have to wait until Armageddon was over before dwelling safely in her own land?
10. Gog and his armies cannot be destroyed in Palestine while they are away fighting in the north and east (fulfilling Dan. 11:44), and not before they conquer the north and east and lead the vast armies down against Jerusalem to fight at Armageddon. There being only one destruction of Gentile armies in Palestine predicted in Ezek. 38:18-22; 39:1-7, 17-20, and Armageddon being the only time of total destruction of the Gentile world armies, then Ezek. 38-39 and Armageddon must refer to the same battle at the second advent of Messiah (Christ).
11. It is sometimes argued that Russia is the fulfillment of these chapters because of the mention of the tribes of Meshech and Tubal, and of the land of Magogsons of Noah through Japheth (Gen. 10:1-5). But we cannot say that all the ancient descendants of these tribes of Noah were Russians, for there were many peoples of Europe and Asia who came from the sons of Noah. Josephus (who lived a.d. 37-96 and wrote a history covering the period from Adam to his own death in a.d. 96) said that Magogs sons were called Scythians and they settled around the Black Sea. He said also that the sons of Japheth settled in the Taurus mountains of Asia Minor, and then spread to many other lands. He said furthermore that from Gomer came the Galatians; from Madai came the Medes; from Javan came the Greeks; from Tubal and Meshech came the ancient Iberians and Cappadocians of Asia Minor, or modern Turkey; and from Tiras came the Thracians. It was from these ancient peoples that all of Asia and Europe were inhabited, and also Russia. I definetly believe that Russia is part of the kingdoms of the north Dan. 11:44. And will be part of Eze.38-39.
While my wife ,my sister ,my brother- n- law and myself was studying YahShua (Jesus) parables. Eloheem (God) started revealing to us the understanding of them .This particular parable is very powerful.
Luke 10:30-37 (KJV) And YahShua (Jesus) answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, [ Eloheem (God) spoke and said who do I say theives are ? Matthew 21:13 (KJV) And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. The Lord was telling us that the church was the den of thieves. The Word says that your foes will be them of your own household. Matthew 10:36 (KJV) And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
Lk.10:30b. which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Some Christians will talk about you and even try and kill you spiritually if they can 31And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side. 32And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side. I asked the Lord why they wouldnt help the man and he said they couldnt because they didnt know me. 33But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him, The Lord spoke to me and who do they say that I am ? John 8:48 (KJV) Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil? So YahShua (Jesus) was telling us that he was the Samaritan. 34And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, What is the oil and the wine? The oil is the anointing and the wine is the blood of YahShua (Jesus) and who better to give this man what he needed than YahShua (Jesus). and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. What is an inn? It is a place of rest and YahShua (Jesus) will bring us to that place of rest when we cant take anymore. 35And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, The Lord spoke to me and told me to turn to EX.30:13 Exodus 30:11-13 (KJV) And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 12When thou takest the sum of the children of Israel after their number, then shall they give every man a ransom for his soul unto the Lord, when thou numberest them; that there be no plague among them, when thou numberest them. 13This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel is twenty gerahs:) an half shekel shall be the offering of the Lord.
I said Lord what does this mean he said ½ shekel is the same as 2 pence and he had gave the inn keeper eternal Life.Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee. When YahShua (Jesus) comes back he will reward him for what he has done.
36Which now of these three, thinkest thou, was neighbour unto him that fell among the thieves? 37And he said, He that shewed mercy on him. Then said YahShua (Jesus) unto him, Go, and do thou likewise.
We are to be like YahShua (Jesus) and no one else. After he gave us this parable someone called and wanted me to preach for their church I started to say let me pray about it but Eloheem (God) told me to say yes. After I got off the telephone Eloheem (God) told me to preach the good Samaritan the way he had just given it to us. It just so happens that someone had been accused of something that they hadnt done and it could have killed them spiritually. Eloheem (God) told me that the person was innocent and to tell the church to apologize to this person and it turns out the person didnt do what they had accused him of doing; ant it just like Eloheem (God) to bring about the understanding of his Word to help someone in need.
The world that was before Adam
Where did the cave-men come from and where did they go according to the Bible?
2 Peter 3:6 (KJV) Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
They are three time periods spoken of in the Bible of the Heavens and the Earth.
1. The world that then was (2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:1-2)
2. The heavens and the earth which are now (2 Peter 3:7; Genesis 1:3-2:25)
3. The new heavens and new earth (2 Peter 3:13; Isaiah 65:17; Isaiah 66:22-24; Rev. 21-22)
We must understand that Satan/Lucifer had already fallen from Heaven (Isaiah14:12 (KJV) How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! )Before he came to Eve in the garden.(Gen 3) Since he had already fallen before Adam ;then he ruled here on earth over some types of beings simalar to man before Adam. He was cast back down to Earth were he ruled
over the nations that was here during that time.Jer.4:23-26 We know that cave men as we call them were here before man. Man has only been created a little over 6,000 years or at least out of the garden of Eden that long. Yet cave men were here millions of years before mankind as we know it. We must tell the world that these beings were created by Eloheem (God). We can find their existence in the Word of Eloheem (God). We have allowed
the theory of evolution to prosper long enough because of our lack of knowledge and studding to show ourselves approved. We do know that these beings existed before man . We have allowed scientist to use their existence against the Word of Eloheem (God). But by knowing the truth of their existence this will prove the Word of Eloheem (God); as I will prove by scripture.
Before Adam there was a social system here on Earth that was destroyed because of Eloheem (God)s fierce anger.
Jeremiah 4:23-26 (KJV) I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. 24I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 25I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 26I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the YahWeh (LORD), and by his fierce anger.
The Word was means to become [was] Hebrew: hayah (HSN-1961), became. Translated "became" 67 times (Genesis 2:7; Genesis 19:26; Genesis 20:12; Genesis 24:67; etc.); "becamest" (1 Chron. 17:22; Ezekiel 16:8); "came" and "came to pass" 505 times (Genesis 6:1; Genesis 11:2; Genesis 14:1; etc.); "become" 66 times (Genesis 3:22; Genesis 18:18; Genesis 48:19; etc.); "come to pass" 131 times (Genesis 4:14; Genesis 24:43; Genesis 27:40; etc.); and "be" in the sense of "become" (Genesis 1:3,6,9,14; Genesis 3:5; etc.).
Jeremiah 4:23-26 (KJV)
I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was [became ]without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. 24I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 25I beheld, and, lo, there was [ became ] no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 26I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was [ became ] a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the YahWeh (LORD), and by his fierce anger.
1. If it became without form then it once had to have form.
a. When?-Genesis 1:1 (KJV) In the beginning Eloheem (God) created the heaven and the earth. In the beginning Eloheem (God) created all things perfect.
Deut. 32:4 (KJV) He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a Eloheem (God) of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Eloheem (God) didnt create the Heaven and the Earth in vain/void or without form as we will see in Isaiah 45:18 (KJV) For thus saith the YahWeh (LORD) that created the heavens; Eloheem (God) himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the YahWeh (LORD); and there is none else.
b. What kind of state was Earth created in? [perfect]
Isaiah 45:18 (KJV) For thus saith the YahWeh (LORD) that created the heavens; Eloheem (God) himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the YahWeh (LORD); and there is none else.
In Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was [ Became] without form, and void; and darkness was [ Became ] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Eloheem (God) moved upon the face of the waters. And in Jeremiah 4:23 (KJV) I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was [Became] without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light. We must understand when Eloheem (God) created the Earth he created it perfect in Gen.1:1 and because of Lucifers rebellion against Eloheem (God) it became void/vain or without form.
c. Why did the Earth become void/vain or without form.
Because of Lucifer/Satans Rebellion against Eloheem (God).
Isaiah 14:12-14 (KJV) How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of Eloheem (God): I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: 14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
d. How was Earth made void/vain or without form.
Jeremiah 4:26 (KJV) I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was [Became] a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the YahWeh (LORD), and by his fierce anger.
By Eloheem (God)s fierce anger he destroyed all life before Adam.
1. The birds in the Heavens/clouds
2.all vegatation
3. All cities and type of man/caveman not man as we know man such as Adam. This type of destruction didnt take place in Noahs flood we must look at the Contrasts Between the Two Floods
Lucifer's Flood Noah's Flood
1.The Earth was made waste (Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23)1.Was not made waste (Genesis 8:11-12,22)
2.The Earth was made empty (Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23)2.Was not made empty (Genesis 6:17-22; 8:16)
3.The Earth was made totally dark (Genesis 1:2; Jer.4:23) 3.Was not made totally dark(Genesis 8:6-22)
4.There was no light from heaven (Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23) 4.Light from heaven (Genesis 8:6-22)
5.No days (Genesis 1:2-5) 5.They were Days (Genesis 8:1-22)
6.All vegetation was destroyed (Genesis 1:2-12; Genesis 8:11-12,22) 6. Vegetation left (Jeremiah 4:23-26)
7.There was no abating of waters off the earth (Genesis 1:6-12)7.Continual abating of waters off the earth
(Genesis 8:1-14)
8.The waters were taken off earth in one day (Genesis 1:10)8. Months abating off earth (Genesis 8:1-14)
9.The waters were removed supernaturally (Genesis 1:6-12)9. The waters were removed naturally
(Geneses 8:1-14)
10.Eloheem (God) rebuked the waters (Genesis 1:6-12; Psalm 104:7) 10. No rebuke of the waters (Genesis 8:1-14)
11.The waters left quickly (Psalm 104:7) 11. Waters gradually receded (Genesis 8:1-14)
12.Eloheem (God) set bound for waters (Psalm 104:9) 12. Bounds already set (Genesis 1:6-12; Genesis 8:2)
13.All the fish were killed because sun withheld 13. No fish killed, only land animals (Genesis 6:18-8:22)
(Genesis 1:2,20-23; Jeremiah 4:23-26)
14.No fowls left (Genesis 1:20; Jeremiah 4:23-26) 14. Fowls preserved (Genesis 6:20; Genesis 8:17)
15.No animals left (Genesis 1:24-25; Genesis 2:19) 15.Animals preserved (Genesis 6:20; Genesis 8:17)
16.No man left (Genesis 1:26-28; Jeremiah 4:23-26) 16.Eight people saved (Genesis 6:18)
17.No social system left (2 Peter 3:6; Jeremiah 4:23-26)17.A social system left(Gen. 6:18;8:22; 2 Pet 2:5)
18.No ark to save life (Jer.4:23-26; 2 Pet.3:6-7) 18.An ark made to save life (Gen. 6:14-22; 1 Pet.3:20)
19. Cause: fall of Satan (Isaiah 14:12-14; 19. Cause: wickedness of man and
Jeremiah 4:23-26; Ezekiel 28:11-17; Luke 10:18) fallen angels (Genesis 6:1-13)
20.Result: necessary to make new fish, fowl, 20.Result: no new creations made, for all
animals, man, vegetation (Genesis 1:3-2:25) things were preserved (Genesis 6:18-8:22)
Hebrew: rachaph (OT:7363), to brood, relax, flutter. Translated "fluttereth"
(Deut. 32:11) and "shake" (Jeremiah 23:9).
This begins the heavens and earth which are now (Genesis 1:3-2:25; 2 Peter 3:5-7).
We find that all this had taken place before Adam in
Jeremiah 4:25-26 (KJV) I beheld, and, lo, there was [Became]no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. 26I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was [Became] a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the YahWeh (LORD), and by his fierce anger.
Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was [ Became ] without form, and void; and darkness was [ Became ] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Eloheem (God) moved upon the face of the waters.
Eloheem (God) destroyed the Earth with water or ice, The Spirit of Eloheem (God) blocked all light from the Earth to allow the Ice age to come and destroy all living beings on Earth.
The Earth was created dry in 2 Peter 3:5-6 (KJV) For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of Eloheem (God) the heavens were of old, and the earth standing oss, and waters before day one (Genesis 1:3).
Genesis 1:3"Eloheem (God) said," ten times: at the beginning of each day; third day twice; sixth day four times (ut of the water [ This means that The Earth was dry ] and in the water: [ This means that Eloheem (God) destroyed it with water/Ice ] 6Whereby the world that then was,[ The world before Adam ] being overflowed with water, perished: [ The Earth was overflowed with water and Eloheem (God) withdrew the sunlight Gen 1:2 and it froze and this became what we call the ice-age.]
Genesis 1:3 And Eloheem (God) said, Let there be light: and there was [Became] light. and Eloheem (God) Created all new life Gen 1:3-31.
E. Why did Eloheem (God) destroy all Life before Adam ?
Because of sin! 1st. We must understand that Lucifer fell from Heaven because of his sin before Adam was created.
Ezekiel 28:11-17 (KJV) Moreover the Word of the YahWeh (LORD) came unto me, saying, 12Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the YahWeh (LORD) Eloheem (God); Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty.
The King of Tyre All that is said of the king of Tyre here must be understood as having a double referenceto the earthly king of Tyre, a man (Ithobalus II; § Ezekiel 28:2); and to the supernatural king, Satan or Lucifer, who ruled Tyre through the earthly monarch, and who is mostly referred to in this prophecy (Ezekiel 28:11-19), as proved by many statements that could not possibly apply to an earthly man. Both the earthly and supernatural kings are referred to and addressed in this prophecy. Statements that could refer to the human being must be understood as concerning him; and those that could not be spoken of a man must be recognized as referring to the supernatural being. Then the passage will be clear
Isaiah 23:7 (KJV) Is this your joyous city, whose antiquity is of ancient days? her own feet shall carry her afar off to sojourn. [ The city of Babylon/Tyre is of ancient days before Adam.]
1. You seal up the sum (pattern as in Ezekiel 43:10); that is, You are the finished pattern (Ezekiel 28:12).
2. You are full of wisdom and perfect in beauty (Ezekiel 28:12,17).
3. You have been in Eden the garden of Eloheem (God).
4. Every precious stone was your covering when you were in Eden.
5. You were created (not born).
6. You are the anointed cherub (angel) that covers (protects or overshadows, Ezekiel 28:14).
7. I have set you so.
8. You were upon the holy mountain of Eloheem (God).
9. You have walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
10. You were perfect in your ways (the laws I required you to walk in) from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you (Ezekiel 28:15).
11. You have sinned by the multitude of your merchandise (traffic). I will cast you out of the mountain of Eloheem (God).
12. I will destroy you, O covering cherub (angel), from the midst of the stones of fire.
13. Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty (Ezekiel 28:17).
14. You have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness (splendor, beauty).
15. I will cast you to the ground (Ezekiel 28:17; Luke 10:18; Isaiah 14:12-14).
16. I will lay you before kings (Ezekiel 28:17; Matthew 25:41; Rev. 20:10).
17. You have defiled your sanctuaries by the multitude of your iniquities, by the iniquity of your traffic (Ezekiel 28:18).
18. I will bring a fire from the midst of you that will devour you (Ezekiel 28:18; Matthew 25:41; Rev. 20:10).
19. I will bring you down like ashes (Ezekiel 28:18).
20. All among the people that know you will be astonished (Ezekiel 28:19).
1. You will be a terror and never be loosed anymore to be among men to exalt
yourself and oppose Eloheem (God).
Eze.28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of Eloheem (God); every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.
No earthly king of Tyre was ever in Eden, as was this angel, nor does this Eden refer to Adam's Eden although Lucifer was in it also (Genesis 3; 2 Cor. 11:3). The Eden here was a garden in the earth when he ruled in perfection and sinlessness before he fell (Ezekiel 28:13).14Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of Eloheem (God); thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire.
Only Lucifer or some other angel could be an anointed cherub. No man could be one. Eloheem (God) set this cherub over the earth to protect it, overshadow it, and rule it.
15Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.
For he was perfect in all his ways and sinless up to the time of his iniquity or sin.
16By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of Eloheem (God): and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.
Hebrew: rekullah (HSN-7404), traffic. It refers to Lucifer's walking up and down
slandering Eloheem (God) to his own subjects on earth, and to Eloheem (God)'s subjects among the angels,
until he had all his earthly subjects rebelling against the Creator, as well as over one-
third of the angels (Isaiah 14:12-14; 2 Peter 3:4-6; Rev. 12:4). Whatever it was, it is clear here that the behavior resulted in violence; and Lucifer sinned and broke with Eloheem (God). This could not refer to an earthly king, as the ruler of Tyre, carrying on ordinary trade with the nations. It definitely concerns the traffic of a cherub, not a man. All the trade between nations in the entire world could not cause an angel to sin, as here (Ezekiel 28:16).
Mountain of Eloheem (God) No angel was in any holy mountain of Eloheem (God) when an earthly king of Tyre ruled, so the reference is to the eternal past when the cherub himself had a literal throne on earth on the holy mountain of Eloheem (God). Here we have an insight into the position of Lucifer before his fall, and a revelation regarding the cause of his fall (Ezekiel 28:13-17).
The term "mount(ain) of Eloheem (God)" occurs 7 times (Ezekiel 28:14,16; Exodus 3:1; Exodus 4:27; Exodus 18:5; Exodus 24:13; 1 Kings 19:8). The "mount(ain) of the YahWeh (LORD)" occurs 6 times (Genesis 22:14; Numbers 10:33; Isaiah 2:3; Isaiah 30:29; Micah 4:2; Zech. 8:3). All these scriptures do not refer to the same mountain in the same place, as can be seen from the various passages.
Eze.28:17Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.
This gives the cause of the fall of Satan. His heart was lifted up because of his beauty, the brightness (splendor) of his kingdom, and his authority (1 Tim. 3:6).
Isaiah 14:12-14 (KJV)
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
The original fall of Lucifer (Isaiah 14:12-14), as well as his final casting down to hell itself (Isaiah 14:15), which is the end of all rebels against Eloheem (God), is the subject of this passage.
Six Proofs Satan Is the Subject of Isaiah 14:12-15
1.Lucifer is the name of Satan, as is agreed by Bible scholars (Isaiah 14:12). Lucifer
(Hebrew: heylel (HSN-1966)), means brightness; morning star. From halal
(HSN-1984), to shine.
2.Satan is the only one in Scripture referred to as having actually fallen from heaven
(Isaiah 14:12; Luke 10:18), and the only personal ruler that is yet to be cast out of
heaven with fallen angels (Rev. 12:7-12). This identifies him as Lucifer of this
passage.
3.Satan is the only person other than Christ and angels who is called a morning star
(Isaiah 14:12). Angels are so-called in Job 38:7, and Christ is called the bright and
morning star in Rev. 22:16; so whoever Lucifer is he could not be a mere man but a heavenly being.
4.Lucifer actually ascended to heaven in an effort to exalt his throne above the stars of
Eloheem (God) and become like the Most High. This no earthly man could do, for he would
have no access to heaven apart from Eloheem (God) (Isaiah 14:13-14).
5.This whole passage has no literal meaning if interpreted in connection with a man,
but in the light of other plain passages about the fall of Satan it clearly refers to him (Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezekiel 28:11-17; Matthew 25:41; Luke 10:18; Ephes. 6:10-18; Rev. 12:7-12).
6.This is another example of the law of double referencetwo persons, one natural
and the other supernaturalbeing involved in the same passage, as when Christ said to Peter, "Get thee behind Me, Satan" (Matthew 16:23), and the YahWeh (LORD) said,
"I will put enmity between thee and the woman" (Genesis 3:15). In this chapter we have the earthly king of Babylon addressed (Isaiah 14:4-11,16-20) and the invisible king of Babylon also referred to in Isaiah 14:12-15.
Isa.14:13For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of Eloheem (God): I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
The mountain where the congregation of heaven gathers for regular worship (Isaiah 4:11; Isaiah 5:8-14; Psalm 82:1; Ezekiel 28:12-14; Rev. 7:9-16; Rev. 14:1-5; Rev. 15:2-4; Rev. 19:1-10).The planet heaven is located in the north part of the universe pointing from the earth (Job 26:7; Psalm 75:6).
14I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Proving that Lucifer's kingdom was located on earth under the clouds, under the stars, and under heaven where Eloheem (God) lives (Isaiah 14:13-14).
Jeremiah 4:23-26 (KJV) I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was [Became] without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
Five Proofs that This Was the Original Earth
1. The only time the earth has ever been "without form, and void" was before the six days of Genesis 1:3-2:25 when it was made chaos through the fall of Lucifer and the pre-Adamiteswhen Eloheem (God) brought the first great universal flood upon the earth to destroy all life (Genesis 1:2; 2 Peter 3:5-7). The statement "without form, and void" means desolate and empty. See § Genesis 1:2,
2. The only time when the sun, moon, and stars of heaven were forbidden to give light on the earth was in the period before the six days of re-creation, as in Genesis 1:2. There had been light on the earth when it was first created"in the beginning" (Genesis 1:1), and there has been light ever since the first day of Genesis 1:3-31; so the period of such darkness took place on the earth sometime after the beginning and before the restoration to a second habitable state in the six days of Genesis 1:3-2:25.
Permanent and eternal laws were given to the sun, moon, and stars at this time, as proved in Jeremiah 31:35-36; Genesis 1:14-19; Psalm 72:5,17; Psalm 89:35-37.
3. The mountains and hills have been moved and will yet be moved by earthquakes, but there never has been a time since Adam to this day, nor will there ever be a time from our day into all eternity that the earth has been or will be without a man, bird, or fruitful place, as seen by Jeremiah, and referred to in Jeremiah 4:25. Therefore, we are required by facts to associate Jeremiah 4:23-26 with the same time as that of Genesis 1:2;
and we are made to realize that there were men, birds, and fruitful places on the earth before Adam's time that were destroyed by the flood of Genesis 1:2; 2 Peter 3:5-7.
4. The earth was created to be inhabited (Isaiah 45:18); and it was inhabited from the beginning by man who lived in cities (Jeremiah 4:25-26), by nations (Isaiah 14:12-14), and a social system, the members of which were mortal and therefore capable of being drowned (2 Peter 3:5-7); they were beings Adam could replace, for he was commanded to replenish the earth (Genesis 1:27-28). It is clear that the earth became desolate and empty after its original habitation of Genesis 1:1.
That is, it was cursed as in Genesis 1:2, and later restored to a second habitable state and replenished as in Genesis 1:3-2:25. Therefore, it is only logical to associate Jeremiah 4:23-26 of this book with Genesis 1:2 and agree that it was the original earth referred to in both passages.
5. One thing is certainJeremiah 4:23-26 could not apply to the time of Noah, for at that time the heavens had lights, and there were men, birds, and fruitful places left on the earth after the flood; whereas, in the case of the curse brought upon the original earth, none of these things remained.
Therefore, if we rightly divide the Word of Truth we should associate Jeremiah 4:23-26 with Genesis 1:2 and 2 Peter 3:5-6, recognizing that there had been light, fixed mountains and hills, men, birds, fruitful places, and cities on the earth before this curse, and before Adam and the six-day work of restoration to a second habitable state as in Genesis 1:3-2:25.The purpose of Eloheem (God) in showing Jeremiah the total destruction of life on the earth in Jeremiah 4:23-26 was to reveal how the land of Judah would be destroyed, and to make a comparison between the two times. In the original judgment on the whole earth all life had been destroyed, but in Judah Eloheem (God) was to make an exception; He declared He would not make a full end as on the original earth (Jeremiah 4:27).
Eightfold Chaos of the Original Earth:
1. It was without form and void (desolate and empty; Jeremiah 4:23).
2. The heavens gave no light on it.
3. The mountains trembled (Jeremiah 4:24).
4. The hills moved lightly.
5. There was no man (Jeremiah 4:25).
6. All the birds were fled.
7. The fruitful places were a wilderness.
8. The cities were broken down at the presence of the YahWeh (LORD), and by His fierce anger (Jeremiah 4:26).
Jer.4:24I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly. 25I beheld, and, lo, there was [Became] no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled. The Word was means [ became ]Their became no type of man/caveman.All the birds were destroyed.
1.The following facts prove that the term "in the beginning" in
Genesis 1:1 refers to the original creation of the heavens and the earth, and does not refer to the time or work of the six days of Genesis 1:3-2:25:
(1)The Word "and" is used 153 times in Genesis 1-2 to separate the 102 independent acts of Eloheem (God). The "and" of Genesis 1:2 proves that the work of Genesis 1:2 is entirely independent of the work of Genesis 1:1. While Genesis 1:1 records the original creation of the heavens and the earth, Genesis 1:2 records the original dry land, or earth, made into chaos and flooded through a great catastrophe which destroyed all life on the world that then was before Adam.
(2)The Word "was" in Genesis 1:2 is from the verb to become, not the verb to be,
proving that the earth became waste and empty since its original creation and
habitation in the beginning. See note on "was," §Genesis 1:2.
(3)The phrase "without form" in §Genesis 1:2 is from the Hebrew
tohuw (HSN-8414), meaning waste or desolation. It is translated "waste" (Deut. 32:10), "without form" (Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23), "vain" (Isaiah 45:18; 1 Samuel 12:21), "confusion" (Isaiah 24:10; Isaiah 34:11; Isaiah 41:29), "empty" (Job 26:7), "vanity" (Isaiah 40:17,23; Isaiah 44:9; Isaiah 59:4), "nothing" (Job 6:18; Isaiah 40:17), and "wilderness" (Job 12:24; Psalm 107:40). It can be seen from these passages what the condition of the earth was in Genesis 1:2. Yet Isaiah 45:18 states that Eloheem (God) did not create the earth "in vain," or tohuw (HSN-8414). Therefore, the earth was originally perfect, dry land, beautiful, and inhabited, but later became empty, waste, and a ruin because of sin (Deut. 32:4; Eccles. 3:11).
(4)The Hebrew for "void" in Genesis 1:2 is bohuw (HSN-922), "empty, ruined,
void." It is translated "void" (Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23), and "emptiness"
(Isaiah 34:11). The Hebrew phrase, tohuw wabohuw, "waste and empty,"
describes the chaotic condition of the earth at the time that it was cursed and
flooded because of the sins of Lucifer and the pre-Adamites. It doesn't refer to
the earth as originally createdbeautiful, perfect, dry land.
2.The earth was created to be inhabited (Isaiah 45:18), and was inhabited before the
flood of Genesis 1:2 and the work of the six days of Adam's time (Genesis 1:3-2:25;
Isaiah 14:12-14; Jeremiah 4:23-26; Ezekiel 28:11-17; 2 Peter 3:5-7).
3.The earth is called "dry land" in Genesis 1:10 which means that Genesis 1:1 could
read, "In the beginning Eloheem (God) created the heaven and dry land." Since it was created
dry, it stands to reason that the flooded condition of Genesis 1:2 was a curse, not a
creative act. According to Psalm 136:6 the earth was originally "stretched above the waters," not covered by them (§Psalm 136:6). This requires a pre-Adamite race whose sin brought such a curse.
4.In Genesis 1:2 the earth is not only flooded with water but covered in total darkness,
causing all life on earth to be destroyed. This requires a pre-Adam world with
vegetation, birds, animals, and human beings as proven in the notes on §Jeremiah
4:23-26.
5.Genesis 1:2 reveals that the earth, waters, and darkness were already in existence
before the work of the six days which began in Genesis 1:3 and continued until the
earth was restored to a second habitable state in Genesis 2:25. Thus, it is clear from
Genesis 1:1-2 (and related scriptures) that:
(1)In the beginningthe dateless past, not six thousand years agoEloheem (God) created the heavens, including the sun, moon, and stars. See note, §Psalm 136:7.
(2)At the same time Eloheem (God) also created the earth or dry land.
(3)The heavens and the earth were created by Eloheem (God), a personal and an eternal Being. They were not the result of a cosmic accident.
(4)The heavens were created before the earth, as revealed in Job 38:4-7.
(5)Both the heavens and the earth were created before the earth was flooded.
(6)The earth was created dry land, not wet and flooded (Genesis 1:1,10; Isaiah
45:18).
(7)The waters that flooded the dry land were created in the beginning along with the earth, to cause the dry land to become productive (Job 38:4-30), not to curse the earth as in Genesis 1:2.
(8)Light and darkness was also created in the beginning, to help sustain life on the
earth (Job 38:4-41).
(9)The earth alone was cursed, flooded, and filled with darknessnot the heavens
(Genesis 1:2).
We therefore conclude that Genesis 1:1-2 proves a world that was before Adam
was destroyed in a flood, requiring the making of the present world from Adam for Eloheem (God)'s original purpose for the earth.
2 Peter 3:5-9 (KJV)
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of Eloheem (God) the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
Twelve Things that People Are Willingly Ignorant Of
1. That by the Word of Eloheem (God) the heavens were created of old (2 Peter 3:5; Psalm 68:33; Psalm 93:2; Psalm 102:25; Micah 5:2).
2. That the earth was established in and out of water (2 Peter 3:5; Psalm 24:2; Psalm 136:6).
3. That "the world that then was" refers to the world before Adam or social system which was destroyed by a great universal flood before Adam (§ 2 Peter 3:6; § Genesis 1:2; § Psalm 104:5-9; § Jeremiah 4:23-26; § Isaiah 14:12-14; § Ezekiel 28:11-17).
4. That the heavens and the earth which are now were restored from chaos and judgment about 6,000 years ago in Adam's day (2 Peter 3:7; Genesis 1:3-2:25).
5. That the heavens and the earth entered their second sinful career through Adam and are now reserved for a second universal renovation (by fire) at the time of the great white throne judgment at the end of the Millennium (2 Peter 3:7,10-12; Romans 8:18-25; Hebrews 1:10-12; Hebrews 12:25-28; Rev. 20:7-15).
6. That with Eloheem (God) a thousand years is like a day and a day like a thousand years. He inhabits eternity and is not subject to time to get His work done before death as is the case with us (2 Peter 3:8-9; Isaiah 57:15; Ephes. 3:11).
7. That the YahWeh (LORD) is not slack concerning His promises but is longsuffering to all men, wishing that all would come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9; 1 Tim. 2:4; Rev. 22:17).
8. That the day of the YahWeh (LORD) is to come as a thief in the night, in which day (the end of it) the heavens and the earth will be renovated and made new a third time (2 Peter 3:10-13; Isaiah 65:17; Isaiah 66:22-24; Rev. 21-22).
9. That all rebellion will then be put down (2 Peter 3:13; 1 Cor. 15:24-28).
10. That the righteous natural people left on earth after the rebellion of Rev. 20:7-10 will multiply and replenish the new earth forever, carrying out Eloheem (God)'s original program for Adam, as would have been done if man had not sinned (2 Peter 3:13; Genesis 1:26-31; Genesis 8:22; Genesis 9:12; Isaiah 9:6-7; Isaiah 59:20; Daniel 2:44-45; Daniel 7:13-14,27; Matthew 25:34,46; Luke 1:32-33; Rev. 11:15; Rev. 21:1-22:5).
11. That Eloheem (God) will move His capital city from the planet heaven to the planet earth to dwell with men forever and administer the affairs of the universe from the earth
(2 Peter 3:13; Rev. 21:1-22-5).
12. That the resurrected saints, saved from Abel to the Millennium, will be heirs of Eloheem (God) and joint heirs with Christ and will reign as kings and priests on earth helping Eloheem (God) administer the affairs of the universe forever (2 Peter 3:13; Psalm 149:5-9; Daniel 7:18-27; Matthew 19:28; Romans 8:17; 1 Cor. 4:8; 1 Cor. 6:2; Ephes. 2:7; 2 Tim. 2:12; 2 Thes. 1:4-10; Rev. 1:6; Rev. 2:26-27; Rev. 5:9-10; Rev. 11:15; Rev. 12:5; Rev. 20:4-6; Rev. 22:5).
This ignorance of the Biblical facts is not forced upon man. They are willingly ignorant, preferring to remain in darkness, even scoffing at the second coming of Christ and denying Him who bought them with His own blood (2 Peter 2:1-2; 2 Peter 3:5,8). They shut their eyes against light and refuse all evidence.
[by the Word of Eloheem (God) the heavens were of old] This refers to Eloheem (God) speaking the materials into existence out of which He then formed the heavens and the earth
( Hebrews 1:10).
[standing out of the water and in the water] This proves the earth was not created all wet as in Genesis 1:2, but dry, then flooded, and later restored to a dry state as in Genesis 1:9-10.
2Pet.3:6Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
[world] Greek: kosmos (GSN-2889), social system. The one that then was, being
deluged with water, perished. This refers to the pre-Adamite world that totally
perished by the flood of Genesis 1:2; Psalm 104:5-9.
There was no man, bird, or any other life left after this flood (§Jeremiah 4:23-26,). This was when Lucifer rebelled (§Isaiah 14:12-14; §Ezekiel 28:11-17; §Matthew 13:35).
[that then was] Three periods of the heavens and earth:
1. The world that then was (2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:1-2)
2. The heavens and the earth which are now (2 Peter 3:7; Genesis 1:3-2:25)
3. The new heavens and new earth (2 Peter 3:13; Isaiah 65:17; Isaiah 66:22-24; Rev. 21-22)
[overflowed with water, perished]
1. Two social systems are mentioned here by Peter. One was before the one which is now, and the other after the one that then was (2 Peter 3:6-7).
2. The former social system perished by water and the present one will perish by fire (2 Peter 3:6-7).
3. The former social system was created "in the beginning" and was destroyed by the flood of Genesis 1:1-2. The present social system was created in six days since the flood of Genesis 1:2 (Genesis 1:3-2:25).
4. The flood of Noah did not destroy all the social system on earth between Adam and Noah, for some were preserved in the ark to continue that social system after the flood; but the social system that then was before the present one utterly perished. Not one man, bird, or animal was left alive (2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23-26).
5. No reference in Scripture can be found of a change in the heavens and the earth in Noah's day, as in Adam's day (Genesis 1:3-2:25). This proves that "the world that then was" had to be before Adam's day because "the heavens and the earth, which are now" came into existence at that time and not at the time of Noah.
6. There was no man, bird, vegetation, or any other life left after the flood of 2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:2. They were made again in the six days (Genesis 2:4-9). That they had been here before Adam is clear from § Jeremiah 4:23-26,
7. There have been and will be a total of three social systems on earth:
(1) The pre-Adam, the one that then was before the present heavens and the earth (2 Peter 3:6)
(2) The pre-Adam sinful social system, from Adam to the new heavens and the new earth (2 Peter 3:7)
(3) The pree- Adam sinless social system in the new earth (2 Peter 3:13; Rev. 21:1-22:5; Isaiah 66:22-24)
8. Peter taught two distinct ends of two sinful careers of the earth:
(1) The world that then was. The pre-Adam social system had a sinful career or it would not have perished in the flood of 2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:2; Jeremiah 4:23-26; Isaiah 14:12-14; Ezekiel 28:11-17; Matthew 13:35.
(2) The present Adam sinful social system, making the present sinful career of the earth. It will come to an end during the Milennium (2 Peter 3:7,10-13; 1 Cor. 15:24-28; Rev. 20:7-10).
1. If 2 Peter 3:6 pictured Noah's flood it would be clear, for Peter always mentions Noah or eight persons if he refers to this flood (1 Peter 3:20; 2 Peter 2:5).
Others also make it clear when they refer to Noah's flood (Isaiah 54:9; Matthew 24:37-38; Luke 17:26-27; Hebrews 11:7).
10. There is no doubt of a universal flood before Adam (2 Peter 3:6; Genesis 1:2; Psalm 104:5-9). Since Eloheem (God) never sends a flood unless judgment is necessary, there must have been a social system to be banished before Adam.
7But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same Word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of unEloheem (God)ly men.
The present heavens and the earth, as restored to a second perfect state in the days of Adam (Genesis 1:3-2:25; Exodus 20:11).
This proves that the time of the renovation of the heavens and the earth by fire of 2 Peter 3:10-13 will be at the time of the great white throne judgment at the end of the Millennium (2 Peter 3:7; Rev. 20:11-15).
8But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the YahWeh (LORD) as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9The YahWeh (LORD) is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
This shows us why Eloheem (God) has delayed so long in putting down all rebellion and in tolerating His enemies to continue their evil designs
We must conclude that Eloheem (God) created the Heavens and the Earth perfect,NOT IN VAIN/VOID OR WITHOUT FORM.
We must also conclude that Satan/Lucifer was created perfect and by his rebellion against Eloheem (God). His kingdom was destroyed and also everything in it. Everything on Earth was destroyed by the Ice Age which Eloheem (God) allowed by the removal of light from the Earth. The Dinosaurs and what we call Cavemen also perished.
This study proves the Bible is correct
Gog (Gaga)( Ezekiel 38-39
Gog occurs as the name of the mysterious figure in Eze.38-39. It is a derivation From
Sumerian Gug GugWhich means shining which is also used of angels.There is a
connection with the diety Gaga Gaga who is the vizier of Assur. Assur was the
Assyrians father of the gods. Whom we would call Satan.Viezer means the muslims
head of state or ruler. When you put this together it reads Gog is the Muslims ruler
for Satan. Proving four things 1st. That Gog (Gaga) is the Beast of Rev. 13 and 17.
2nd.That he is a great Muslims leader. 3rd. That he is a symbol of a man possessed by demons under the authority of a fallen angel. 4th.That many will be deceived by his shining light from the mingled tree of knowledge of good and evil.
There are many facts that prove that Gog of Ezek. 38-Ezek 39 (who is the "little horn" of
Dan.7:7-8,23-24;Dan 8:7-8,20-23, and "the beast" of Rev. 13- Rev 17) does not originate in Russia, but becomes the leader of Russia and all the Kingdoms in the north and east by conquest. He conquers the Kingdoms north and east of the Roman Empire territory, but originates from Syria (Dan. 11:36-45). Therefore, he becomes the scourge of Russia and not her hero and chief son. But he becomes the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal thru. His conquet of them. At least 38 predictions in Ezekiel identify these chapters as being fulfilled at Armageddon at the second advent, and not at the time of some hypothetical war between Israel and Russia happening before the tribulation and the second advent. The predictions include: both Israel and many other nations getting to know Eloheem GOD from the time of this battle onward (Ezek 38:16; Ezek 39:6-7,21-25,27); no more pollution of Eloheem GOD's name (Ezek 39:7); Eloheem GOD glorified by all nations (Ezek 39:13,21); Israel saved from Gentile domination forever (Ezek 39:26-29); Israel completely regathered from all nations (Ezek 39:28); the Holy Spirit poured out upon Israel (Ezek 39:29); Israel never again to be afraid of other nations (Ezek 39:26); Eloheem GOD never again to hide His face from Israel
(Ezek 39:29); Eloheem GOD's name to be sanctified among the heathen (Ezek 39:7); men to see Eloheem GOD bodily and in person (Ezek 38:18-22; Ezek 39:1-6,17-24);
and all the heathen to know Eloheem GOD from this time forward into all eternity (Ezek 39:23; Rev. 21-Rev 22).Gog and his armies of Ezek. 38- Ezek 39 falling upon the open field to make a great supper for the birds and beasts is exactly the same as in Rev. 14:12-20;Rev 19:11-21; Mt. 24:28,37-42; Lk. 17:34-37 which pictures the battle of Armageddon (Ezek. 38:3-5; Ezek 39:4,17-25).Eloheem GOD predicts that the armies of Gog in Ezek. 38:20-22; Ezek 39:6 would become so confused then they would destroy one another. The same is stated of the armies of the Antichrist at Armageddon (Zech. 14:4,10).Josephus (who lived A.D. 37-96 and wrote a history covering the period from Adam to his own death in A.D. 96) said that Magog's sons were called Scythians and they settled around the Black Sea. He said also that the sons of Japheth settled in the Taurus
mountains of Asia Minor, and then spread to many other lands.
He said furthermore that from Gomer came the Galatians; from Madai came the Medes; from Javan came the Greeks; from Tubal and Meshech came the ancient Iberians and Cappadocians of Asia Minor, or modern Turkey; and from Tiras came the Thracians. It was from these ancient peoples that all of Asia and Europe were inhabited, not Russia alone. Now we can tie the fallen angel Apolloyn to Gog.
Apolluwn-Apollyon
Apollo is a Greek god whose name occurs as a theophoric element in the names Apollwv
(Acts 18:24,var. lect.: Apellhv , Apollwniov { of which Apollo is a dimimutive]; 19:1,var. lect.: Apellhv 1Cor.1:12,3:4-6 ; 16:12 and Titus 3:13, Apellhv ( Rom.16:10 ).Apollwnia (Acts 17:1.var.lect. Apollwniv Apolluwn , Rev. 9:11).
1. Apollo was considerd an intruder ,it was excepted that Apollo was of non Greek
origin.The attempts to locate his origion havent been 100% conclussive but most agree he probably came from the North-East of Eroupe or Asia minor (Guthrie 1950:70-87), The once Hitite god Apulunas is believed to be Apollo. The fact is that the Hitite god was a fallen Angel and the father of many of the giants. Apollo is also a fallen Angel and the resemblence in this kingdom and Apulunas is visible. Apollo is also the fallen angel Apollon. In the epic literature and at Delos and Delphi the gods name is always spelled Apollon. In the Doric dialect we find Apellon and on Cyprus Apeilon, in Thessaly Aploun. At the beginning of the present era the form Apollon had most completely superseded the Doric form of Apellon.
2. Apollo was considered the author of evil as well as the god of law and order .He was also the god of prophecy and the frightning god who brings pestilence.
We have to look at these facts. I have taught for a few years that Apollo was Apollon which is the fallen prince or angel that rules the beast of Rev.13 and 17. I knew this because Eloheem was putting it into my heart. This was before I knew about the history of Apollo or the Greek gods.I have also been teaching that Apollon is the prince or king of witchcraft, which will be the form of religion that will run rapid during the tribulation. In Rev.6 we have the 4 riders of the Apocalypse .We need to look at the white horse
ridder who will be the antichrist or the beast before Apollon is released from the Abyss.
Rev. 6:2-8 (KJV) And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
The10 kings will be possessed and ruled by the demons under the authority of the Fallen prince of the Roman Empire. This will be in fulfillment of Dan.2:31-45 and Dan 7. This Empire of the 10 kings will be defeated by the beast at this time which will be in the middle of the tribulation Apollons demons will posess the antichrist which is a mortal man and the result will be the symbol of the beast coming out of the sea Rev.13 with a face of a leapord. The defeat of the revised Roman empire will be the fatal wound that will be healed by the coming of the 8th. Kingdom of Apollon or the beast.
This mortal man will be rulled by the fallen prince of the Greacian Empire in fulfillment of Dan.8. The beast will not be ruled by the prince of the Roman Empire becase it tells us in Rev. 17:11 (KJV) And the beast that was, ( Was on earth befor Johns days the Grecian prince. One of the seven which will have to be of the first five kingdoms.)and is not,
(is not during Johns days of the Roman Empire or is not the prince of the Roman Empire. )even he is the eighth, (This will be the last kingdom the mingled kingdom of the feet of part iron and part clay Dan.2:33 ) and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. This means that since he is not on earth during the 6th. And is not the seventh then he has to be of the first five. Since he has the face of a leapord and comes out of the Grecian Empire Territory he will be the fallen Angel who ruled that kingdom which was Apollon.
The beast being possessed and ruled by the fallen prince of the Grecian Empire the prince of the Abyss is the reason for the face of a leapord (Rev.13) or symbolic of the Grecian Empire.
This Ancient Grecian Empire of Alexander the Great was ran by the Fallen prince Apollo or Apollon. Alexander the Great was possessed by demons and was into witchcraft (idolatry) he was also a homosexual and a sodimite. Almost all people who are deeply into witchcraft are homosexuals. Notice that the beast will not desire women. We must also notice that he worships the dragon Satan. Here recently there was an x- Warlock and now christian on Sid Roths Supernaturael that spoke of Apollon as being the king of witchcraft whom he would call upon reguarly by name when he was a warlock/witch. There are specific Fallen princes that rule over specific kingdoms and work in specific Gifts. We must understand that the prince that controls the beast will have to know and understand how to run the type of government that will be needed. This prince will be the king or prince of the Abyss because he understands government he runs all the princes and all the demons in the Abyss. He also was considered the god of law and order by the Grecians.
Apollo was the Greek god over pestilence which is also a result of war and is also associated with witchcraft. Every nation that worships Idols or Satan has to deal with a great deal of pestilence.
Apollo was the same as the ancient Sumerian god Nergal Whos names and titles were.
1st. The destroyer Apollon is the destroyer
2nd. The god of war and sudden death.
3rd.The ruler of the realm of the dead
4th.The King of the Abyss Apollon is king of the Abyss
5th.The King of the dreadful sWord
6th. The god of plague Apollo is the Greek god of plague
Apollo was the giver and the interpreter of laws. We can read that the beast will try to accomplish this in Daniel 7:25 (KJV) And he shall speak great Words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time. Apollo was an orical speaking god or fallen prince.His sanctuary in Delphi became the most influential political and religious center of the world. He was also in control of the wars of the Grecians. The Greek term arche and its equivalent Lat translation principium, carries the basic meaning of primacy in time or rank. It is an abstract term for power and often used with the meaning of sphere or authority.This is power that is wielded by someone in a position of political, social or economic authority.Which will be the case with the beast or the prince that controls the antichrist a man . Arche can be used as a supernatural power ;good or evil which has control over Mortal human beings such as the antichrist.
Abadon/Apollyon is connected to the 9-11 atacks
In the 1972 Munich terrorist attack at the Olympics there were "11" Israeli athletes massacred by "11" terrorists that were involved. If the number 11 is not being used deliberately by the terrorists because of the negative meaning of "judgment & disorder," it could be that God is revealing the source of who is responsible for the terrorists attacks when the number 11 is used (it is no coincidence that the name "Abaddon/Apollyon " (Strong's H11), the god of destruction, judgment & disorder, is revealed in Revelation 9:11, revealing who was responsible for the 9/11 attack upon the USA). It is also interesting that the Hebrew name Abaddon in Strong's Concordance is number "H11" revealing that the name is the 11th chronological word in the Old Testament!
Abaddon is the identity of al-Qaida's terrorist god of the number 11 !
The World Trade Center attack was on September 11, 2001. The Madrid, Spain train bombing was on March 11, 2004. The Mumbai (Bombay), India train bombing was on July 11, 2006 (reportedly the bombs in India went off within an 11 minute span). The Islamic founder, Muhammad, died in the year 632 AD = 6 + 3 + 2 = 11. Supposedly he received the revelation of the Quran over a period of 22 years, which is a double 11. Some more incidents regarding the number 11 that were found on the Internet:
The date of the attack: 9/11 - 9 + 1 + 1 = 11 September 11th is the 254th day of the year: 2 +5+4 = 11 After September 11th there are 111 days left to the end of the year. 119 is the area code to Iraq/Iran. 1 + 1 + 9 = 11 Twin Towers - standing side by side, looks like the number 11 The first plane to hit the towers was Flight 11 State of New York - The 11th State added to the Union Ramzi Yousef - 11 Letters (convicted or orchestrating the attack at the WTC in 1993) Flight 11 - 92 on board - 9 + 2 = 11 Flight 77 - 65 on board - 6 + 5 = 11
Be watchful of multiples of 11, such as 22, the double 11 ! There's a connection between the number 11 and the number 22. Although the number 22 in our Bible is a positive number, some could interpret it as a double 11, or "double judgment " ! There were many terrorist activities thwarted that were planned for September 22!
This would make the 11 already charged and the 11 yet to be charged a total of 22 terrorists! Again, we are seeing the manifestation of the numbers 11 and 22 used in connection with Islamic terrorists.
The amazing number 22!........check this out........The number 22 in scripture generally speaks of "light." This ministry believes it is no coincidence that on October "11," President Bush released the photographs of the "22 Most Wanted Terrorists," and in his speech he stated, "....these 22 terrorists hide in the darkness, but we are exposing them with the light of justice"...." President Bush probably did not realize the number 22 represents light, and the number 11 judgment, but our God did! The "light" in this particular 22 is the "light of justice," and the 11 (as in the day of the President's speech, October 11, 2001) represents a double judgment coming upon Apollyons Followers Rev. 18 6 .
