Cross Roads 2024

The Biblical keys unlocking Daniel’s four beasts and the timing of the Eagle-Bear conflagration have yielded much treasure.  They reveal the season, even to the very months and dates, when the ultimate events will happen.  Yet, for all that vision, scriptural signposts that would pin those dates to a specific calendar year remain shadowed.  While the exact year is much less objective, it inevitably becomes clearer the closer we get to it.  With so great a vision already unveiled, it would be incongruous if the year remained unknown until it was immediately upon us.  A central point of prophecy is forewarning to the watchful that they might escape.  Far too much has been revealed already to end up coming short of that purpose.  Inevitably, at some point very close to the danger, the final dates reveal themselves in full.  We are in that zone now.

The very last absolute sign will be when the feathers come off at the time of Purim.  All at once it will all be beyond doubt.  Unfortunately by then the American holocaust will only be about four weeks (one moon) away, leaving little time or even opportunity to get serious about preparing.  Anyone hedging their bets until the Purim sign is fulfilled will find the ensuing financial chaos nearly impossible to navigate.  We should expect the watchful to read the signs in time to act on them and escape.  The whole purpose of the holocaust is not to destroy but to cleanse and heal; in order to heal there must be a surviving patient.

Knowing the year beforehand, even just one year in advance, would be invaluable: the difference between life and death for many millions.  The Word says that God’s people perish for lack of vision [Pro 29:18] and even prescribes the cure for that needless death: keeping the New Covenant of Christ Jesus.  We are living in a time when those words could not be more lively.  2017 was a pivotal year: fourteen years from the start of the White Horse and also the beginning of a momentous change in the USA.  It could have tipped either way.  Now, well into the 3rd week of the White Horse, there is a reasonable expectation that this current, third heptad will fully play out before the next seven-year pivot point presents itself.  But is reasonable expectation of the jubilee pattern of seven years all we have to guide us?  Are there signs great and powerful enough, and free of man’s contrivances, to pin these vital pieces of prophecy on the calendar with a high degree of certainty?

First, acknowledging that the Spirit of Prophecy is the Testimony of Jesus [Rev 19:10], that He alone is the Teacher [Mat 23:8], that He is Truth [Jhn 14:6] and the Perfecter of our Faith [Heb 12:2], let this Mind guide our further inquiry.  In prophetic circles, where individual scriptures are often taken in isolation, the principle of requiring at least two witnesses, two prophets, is often ignored in favor of private, carnal interpretations.  In this study we have already heard at least five ancient Biblical prophets bear witness to these events, now let us look up to see three more heavenly witnesses in our very day.

1. 2024 has an unusual solar eclipse right on the eve of the Biblical new year. The turning of the year bisects the one month period from Purim to Passover, the very period of the Eagle’s great reckoning.  Beginning at Purim with the loss of feathers and culminating one month later at Passover, this period leaves the Eagle mortally wounded and presumed dead, ripe for scavenging by foreign invaders.  By the time of this eclipse the financial chaos that began two weeks earlier will have escalated into a global crisis unknown in human history and yet much worse is to come on the two-week horizon.  Should such momentous events, long prophesied and key to the unwinding of man’s rule ahead of Christ’s return pass unnoticed and unmarked in the heavens? Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring.  This auspicious total solar eclipse is visible almost exclusively over the USA, tracking in a south to north line over its eastern region, on April 8, 2024.  Beyond the eclipse’s time and focus, the line it traces dovetails with a second, companion witness.

2. Fascinating as the 2024 total solar eclipse is, it is not a solitary sign but a complementary pairing with its predecessor.  The first of this pair came seven years before it on Aug 21, 2017 when another total solar eclipse crossed west to east, also almost exclusively over the USA.  These dual total solar eclipses, nearly 7 years apart, constitute two great witnesses to America.  Now notice how their combined witness is magnified by their auspicious paths, first west to east and then south to north, forming first the stem and then the crossbeam of a great and perfect Cross* directly over the heart of the USA!  How awesome!
   *Bear in mind that the eclipse paths only appear curved when the globe of the earth is projected onto a 2D, flat map, as above.  In 3D reality, the beams are perfectly straight and the great, cosmic Cross etched over America is brilliant with portent.
   The beaming Cross these fiery eclipses trace lies on its side as if it has been under siege, neglected, even disrespected and assaulted.  It is no longer the upright banner over an upright nation that it once was.  It has fallen into disrepair, suffered abuse and hatred, but it still lies over the Eagle’s heart.  Weathering generations of attack and blasphemy it nonetheless has not been erased from the land where God placed it.  It can be resurrected.  Jesus is going to raise it up again in a mighty act of Mercy and Deliverance!  Signs in the heavens, timed, positioned and coordinated like this are impossible to counterfeit or manipulate.  They are placed there for the wise to consider and that people might not perish for lack of vision.  Adding weight to these signs is just how rare they are.  Before the 2017 total solar eclipse, the last time a TSE crossed the USA was 99 years before, in 1918, and even that one was neither centered over the USA nor was it paired with a second one.  A double witness of this caliber is like the handwriting on Belshazzar’s wall.
   2 Cor 13:1 .. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.

3. On top of these two, stunning solar signs, we have an amazing third heavenly witness in 2024!  A lunar eclipse shadows the moon on Monday Mar 25, two weeks before the April 8 solar eclipse.  This eclipse is only visible in the western hemisphere, casting its shadow across the entire USA.  Interestingly, this is a deep penumbral eclipse which, rather than blocking out the full moon by the earth itself, submerges it in the shadow surrounding the earth, leaving all but the tiniest sliver unshaded.  In addition to its auspicious timing, this sign has two interesting aspects.  Being penumbral, it shades the moon rather than plunging it into darkness, therefore only the watchful will take notice.  The thin sliver that remains fully lit illustrates the Eagle’s very near death one month hence were it not for that saving ray of Light from above.  After that terrible day, a day of destruction like none other [Jer 30:7], America will appear dead to the world, never to rise again.  But in its darkest hour, at the last moment of defenseless doom, just when all hope seems lost, it will be helped back to its feet and given a new heart [Dan 7:4] by the Light of the World.  This stunningly timed lunar witness happens on the night of Purim, the very night before the Eagle loses its feathers!  The confluence of a massive, unprecedented financial collapse with this heavenly sign the same night portends a collapse unlike the series of boom-bust crashes of the past.  The heavens are confirming the beginning of something far greater.  This one is calculated and coordinated by America’s enemies as the first blow of a four-pronged attack designed to utterly defeat and enslave America. Now recall Hosea’s testimony in 5:7 revealing that the chastisement of Ephraim’s pagan children unfolds over a single lunar cycle:  They have dealt treacherously against Yahweh: for they have begotten pagan/strange children: now a moon shall devour them with their heritage.  It is not uncommon for lunar eclipses to occur on full moons near solar eclipses, so this this witness is incomplete on its own.  It’s the threefold witness of heavenly signs at the auspicious times, locations and their particular type that accord them such great weight.  How perfect that a terrible period of judgment lasting one lunar month should begin with a lunar sign illuminating the critical Purim-to-Passover timing of the feathers-to-ribs events!  This dreadful month is sealed in the heavens by a lunar eclipse over America on the very day that grave lunar cycle begins.  Coincidence or Providence?  Jewish tradition has it that solar eclipses are signs to the world at large while lunar eclipses are particular to Israel.  The events portended here: the unsealing of the Red Horse, its terrible ride beginning against the two Houses of Ancient Israel, have both an Israel-Judah focus (properly USA-Judea) and worldwide consequences.  All judgment begins with both Houses of Israel and goes forth from them.
   

   ---

4. 1Pet 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
   Deu 19:15 .. at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established..  
   Ecc 4:12  And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
   Three heavenly witnesses have now testified.  Even if these three were all that pointed to 2024 they would motivate the wise into action, but there are at least seven more auspicious alignments in the affairs of man.

5. UPDATE Mar 17’24:  Since this was published Putin changed the Russian constitution to remove the term limits* that were in effect when at time of publishing.   Currently Medvedev serves as deputy chairman of Russia’s security council, a position integral to the defense of Russia.  It remains to be seen exactly what his role will be in the newly elected government.
   Man’s myopia often disregards or fails to recognize the significance of proper names though Biblical evidence shows that names often reflect the character or role of significant players in human affairs.  Even the name Trump conveys curious  echoes of the Revelation trumps.  The Bear is a huge player in end times events, the second of four principal beasts driving the labor pains toward Christ’s return.  At the top of political power within the Bear is a man whose name resonates with jaw-dropping Biblical foreboding.  Russian power is wielded by its President, now Vladimir Putin, and the Prime Minister under him, currently Dmitry Medvedev.   These two men have formed a tag-team dominating Russian politics since 2000.  The two have alternated roles ever since. When Putin is President, Medvedev is Prime Minister, and vice versa.  The President may serve up to two consecutive terms but can run again after a one term break and thus has this team alternated roles.  Russia holds new presidential elections about every six years.  Putin last won re-election on March 18, 2018 to another second consecutive Presidential term with Medvedev again serving as his PM.  The next Russian election is Mar 17, 2024, just one week before Purim.  *Due to term limits Putin will not be able to run for a third consecutive term as President.  It’s a virtual certainty who will again revolve into the Bear’s presidency in 2024, just in time to carry out its mission to “devour much flesh”.  Now realize what the name Medvedev means: literally “Man of the Bear“.

6. Passover vs Easter in 2024 are conspicuous in their calendrical divergence.  Usually the two fall fairly close together, though they are regulated by different calendars.  The US House of Representatives and the Senate both take lengthy Easter recesses that span a 12-14 day period.   Normally this covers both the Easter and Passover observances.  Hosea warns Ephraim in 7:16 that  “their princes shall fall by the sword”.  This will happen when the rib of Washington, DC is torn out by nuclear destruction.  But if Passover is within a week or two of Easter, most of its princes will not be there, having returned home to their constituencies for the break.  Once again 2024 breaks that pattern.  Only in 2024 is Easter conspicuously separated from Passover by over 3 weeks.  This guarantees that the annual Easter recess will be well past by the time of Passover, ensuring that that nuclear sword will find Ephraim’s princes on their thrones when it fulfills Hos 7:16, obliterating not only their center of power but them along with it.

7. 2024 will begin the 7th year of a 7 year period that mirrors the 7 days ancient Israel spent walking out of Egypt until their awesome deliverance at the Red Sea.  Our walk has been one that sought to extricate America from the NWO (modern Egypt) by reversing many of the critical steps to subsuming American sovereignty.  Their walk was 7 days then, ours is 7 years now, a year for a day.  The ultimate, final day of deliverance came at the dawn of the 7th day.  The 7th day would corresponds to the year beginning spring 2024 and ending spring 2025.  This last “week” marks  America’s exit from the role it has played, with the White House riding the White Horse of NATO as a whitewashed exporter of democracy through war by missiles.
   

   ---

8. It was Biblical New Year’s Eve 2017, at his first SOTU address, that Trump announced the coming exit of the White Horse when he proclaimed a more domestically focused, “America-First”, agenda that would leave other nations to likewise look after themselves without America imposing its will on them.  Seven years from spring 2017 is spring 2024, ending at the point at which the White Horse will have completed a ride 3 weeks, or 21 years, a ride begun on Purim 2003 when it fired the first arrows in its quiver in its opening “war on terror” against a scapegoated Iraq.  Since then it has been prosecuting its “holy” war on terror, demonizing, framing and destroying countless souls in the name of its false god of “democracy”.   That comes to an end on Purim 2024, when the feathers are plucked from the Eagle, leaving it a flightless, defenseless prey.
   

   ---

9. Now, lets take a close look at key events that happened along that ancient march out of the NWO.  From the book of Exodus we know that Pharaoh’s whole army set out to overtake and destroy Israel on day 6.  At the end of day 6 and start of day 7 they arrived but were blocked from coming near Israel.  By the morning of day 7 Pharaoh’s entire army was destroyed and Israel was freed from all peril, able to travel safely on their journey guided by the Lord as He patiently revealed Himself to them in the wilderness.  So, the Biblical year starting April 2024 is confirmed as the ultimate showdown and deliverance for the USA.   Here is the day-for-a-year timeline:2018/19 = day/year 1  slow march out on foot
   2019/20 = day/year 2  slow march continues
   2020/21 = day/year 3  Egyptians begin to regret sending Israel away
   2021/22 = day/year 4  Egyptian nobility/slave owners launch offensive to recapture Israel
   2022/23 = day/year 5  God strengthens Israel to defeat and send the slave owners back
   2023/24 = day/year 6  Pharaoh launches full scale military attack to destroy Israel
   2024/25 = day/year 7  Israel is delivered by the awesome miracle at the Red Sea
   The ancient book of Jasher holds additional information about the events of days 3, 4, abd 5.  Jasher is twice recommended in the Bible as a history book (Jos 10:13 & 2 Sa 1:18).  In chapter 81 we find critical events on days 4 and 5 (2021-2023) that map directly to current events.  On day 4, the Egyptian nobles (slave owners) set out in large numbers (~700,000) to overtake Israel in the desert and force them to return to their Egyptian slavery.   This was not Pharaoh’s army but a large contingent of those with economic interests to protect.  Notice the astonishing parallel with what happened to Ephraim in 2020-22:  first, a bioweapon was launched by the Dragon to arrest Ephraim’s growing resurgence, remove its leader and bind Ephraim back in the shackles of the NWO.  By 2021 that had mushroomed into the full assault of mandatory injections with a gene-editing, immune destroying poison.  Then and now, it was an economically driven attack, to impoverish and weaken Israel and stop our journey.  It toppled the leadership, halted our march and reversed most of our progress.

   ---

10. EDIT:  This template from Jasher would seem to portend a temporary reprieve in 2022 but God does not appear to have be granted it.
    But notice what happened on day 5: God strengthened the hand of Israel over that army of slave owners so that Israel defeated them in battle, killing many and driving the rest back to Pharaoh humiliated. This template reveals another great reversal of fortune coming on day 5 (2022/23) where US patriots defeat the NWO by force, cutting off their attempt to recapture America.  Just how this happens is not given, but the threat and use of force is initiated by the Egyptian nobles prompting a successful, defensive attack from our side, aided by God Himself.  Remember that days begin at sunset with the nighttime portion followed by the daylight portion,  so mapping that to a year would make its first 6 months correspond to the nighttime portion and the last 6 months the daylight portion.  If we assume, logically, (and Jasher does not say) that the military defeat of the Egyptian nobles came in the daylight portion of day 5, then we should expect a dramatic reversal in the USA sometime after the 7th month begins (around Sept 28, 2022).  But, it must be noted that this victory would only be a temporary reprieve, time to make our final preparations against the international military conspiracy that will be assembled on day 6 and reach both its zenith and its destruction in Ephraim/USA as day 7 dawns in Apr 2024

    ---

11. The 6th year (2023/24), just like the 6th day of the week, is a year of preparation.  In the weekly cycle, the 6th day is when a double portion of supplies are gathered to see us through the 7th day, when no work is done.  This firmly established Biblical pattern is a second witness confirming that the 6th year of this terrible week should be a time when final preparations are made for the 7th year (2024/25) when no one can work.  Just as in the ancient 7 day march, the 6th day marked an unfettered resumption of the march out of Egypt.  But it was a short reprieve because Pharaoh’s army arrived as the day was ending.  Therefore we should expect 2023 to be a year when the war waged against us on days 4 and 5 are ended and some stability returns in order to allow time for the wise to prepare against the terrible time of Jacob’s trouble.  To many, this year will feel like the end of the fight, that all is back on track and peace and safety have returned.  Beware lest any of us fall into that illusion!  The 6th year must be used wisely and urgently, for we know it is only a one day pause before the most terrible day in human history.  Once the 3 ribs of NYC, LA & DC are torn out the nation will be  totally paralyzed.  There will probably not even be electric power in most places and certainly no food or other essentials in the stores.
12. The number 8 in scripture is the number of new beginning.  It follows the completion of Creation and it starts a new week, the next phase of a great Plan. Eight is a turning point, a renewal that stretches over the 7 years it begins.  In 2024 it also completes one Biblical week of years, the final week of the White Horse, one Jubilee heptad, and begins the next heptad.  Each end time heptad is marked by great upheaval.  It is by far the most likely time to see a great change take place.  2003 was an 8th year.  It saw the beginning of the White House’s ‘War on Terror’ and the unsealing of the White Horse.  2017 was also an 8th year.  It saw the beginning of a great political change in the land of the Eagle.  This change, as will be confirmed by the upcoming 2018 mid-terms, was not a fading fad or a one-off political aberration but a growing and sustained movement toward real revolution in American society, a return to American values.  It marked a turning point when Ephraim’s core values had been pushed beyond the limits of quiet tolerance and the silent majority began to push back, aided by the hand of the Almighty and the one He chose to galvanize the movement.  By 2024 that majority will have strengthened and be ready for the next phase in God’s plan of redemption.
13. According to the pattern established under Joseph in the land of Egypt, seven years of plenty are given as a preparation for the wise before a seven year famine.  It was Joseph whom God used to provide refuge from that great, global famine.  It was Joseph through whom two modern world wars were waged and won against a demonic grab for global power.  Now, in these closing decades it is once again Joseph fulfilling a latter day, larger scale, parallel feast and famine event connected with the final push for global power.   The seven years of US resurgence under President Trump are the prelude to the seven year famine God will use to draw Ephraim, Joseph’s youngest son and Jacob’s adopted firstborn, back to Him.  This heart-rending famine begins with a short, but apocalyptic war to stop the Eagle from derailing plans for a satanic world government, the final UN beast.  Thus the time of Jacob’s trouble begins, but he will be saved out of it [Jer 30:7].  The 7 year term from 2017 to 2024 fits this pattern perfectly.  During these seven years he is regaining and multiplying a great prosperity, albeit temporarily, and interrupted on the 4th and 5th day.  He is dividing the Ephraimite spirits from Korahite spirits for destruction.  Trump is the last restrainer holding back the global forces that seek America/Ephraim’s and Israel/Judah’s destruction as their great push toward establishing Satan’s throne over the whole earth.  This preparation period is when the wise and watchful will buy oil and keep their lamps bright, knowing the times.  The rest of the three grim horsemen must have their day.  Those who put their hopes in man will think peace and renewed prosperity, especially on day 6, will herald a new century of American preeminence.  Let us not be caught up in that pride!  These seven years of plenty expire in early 2024 when the Biblical year turns, midway between Purim and Passover .. at the solar eclipse.

14. The endpoints of two key cycles converge in 2024:
    1 – Twenty-one years of the White Horse will be complete at Purim 2024
    2 – The 7 day march march out of the NWO comes to its apocalypse capped by a miraculous deliverance on the 7th day of Unleavened Bread.
    This double alignment with the unsealing of the White Horse’s ride on Purim 2003 is a strong confirming witness pointing to 2024.  All Jubilee periods are composed of 7 weeks of 7 years each, or 7 heptads, followed by the Jubilee year itself.  The great end-time events all unfold during the final Jubilee of man’s rule.  The last two horsemen split one heptad: 3.5 years of bleak death under the Black Horse followed by 3.5 years of the Great Tribulation during the Pale Horse of martyrdom under the final Antichrist.   If the Eagle-Bear prophecy is an end-time work of God, as evidence proves, it should last at least 1 full heptad.  In fact, the White Horse will have completed 3 full heptads by Purim 2024, the last heptad neatly bracketing the 7 final, relatively rich exodus years leading directly to the 7 very lean years once the Eagle is severely chastised and given a new heart.

    ---

15. In May 2024 the WHO is set to implement a global pandemic treaty that will have the effect of putting the WHO over all national governments.  It will have the power to declare a pandemic without evidence or accountability, even on the mere suspicion that one might happen.  As soon as it does, it will assume control over all governments’ responses, dictating medical, social, economic interventions to every person all in the name of supposed public safety.  As we saw with the massive overreach during the Covid mania, all institutions, private and public immediately abandoned all law and reason in a panicked rush to “safety”.  If this WHO treaty were to go into effect it would immediately plunge the world into the global government of Daniel’s 4th beast.  Only by God’s direct intervention at the end of April will this be stopped and completely derailed.  As always, He works on multiple levels at once and this is another strong indicator that 2024 is the Red Horse year.

With these heavenly and earthly signposts to guide us, spring 2024 looms as a certain time when the White Horse will exit and the Red Horse make its terrible entrance.  Nevertheless, we would be wise to maintain a state of readiness, knowing that any spring could be that time, so that these events will not overtake the wise as they will the world.

Is America Babylon?

It’s undeniable that America has become co-opted by the ancient Babylonian system and has strayed far from his Christian roots.  Babylon’s parasitic, modern epicenter makes its lair in NYC. For the moment, even the final UN Babylonian beast’s headquarters is there.

This demonic system has twisted and corrupted almost every founding precept that America had and tries very hard to drown out and destroy America’s unique core of diligent, humble faith in Christ.  Many commentators seize upon these glaring, profane  distractions to point an accusing finger at America, rashly condemning a nation founded on the Gospel of Christ, judging with neither wisdom nor mercy.

The Bible refers to nations or tribes according to their male lineage, not women.  The heads of all the seventy tribes of the earth are men and they stand as the identity of their nations.  Evil women, like the whore of Babylon, are not the nations themselves but the seducers of them, leading them into rebellion against God.  Satan’s original and still primary approach to compromise men is to use women against them, as he used Eve to get to Adam.  The Babylonian whore pictured in Revelation rides the final, global UN beast, just as she has seduced and ridden other dominant kingdoms throughout history.   She is not those beasts herself but she’s had effective control over them such that she manipulates their reins.  She always focuses her attention on the most powerful kingdoms and America is currently that one.  Once America is no longer that power she will move on to the next.  The last one she rides will be the most powerful in the history of man.

For all the Babylonian-style wickedness we can readily point to, Babylon is not who America was founded to be and not who America is at heart.  The nation of America has been corrupted by the whore but there remains a faithful core of that youthful America and it is this heart that God is concerned with.

1Sam 16:7 ..The LORD does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”

Jer 17:10 I the LORD search the heart, I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.

Psa 44:20-21 If we had forgotten the name of our God and spread out our hands to a foreign god wouldn’t God have found this out, since He knows the secrets of the heart?

It is the heart that we must be concerned with if we are to understand America as He sees it and it is America’s hardened heart that He will replace with a heart of flesh.

Dan 7:4  The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I beheld till its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man’s heart was given to it

Eze 36:26  A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh

God yearns for America as he was in his youth, a youth full of sincerity and truth. In a stark and strange dichotomy, America hosts both the darkness of Babylon’s depravity while simultaneously being the guardians of the Gospel of Christ and its chief exporter around the world, in obedience to Christ’s command.

Mat 28:19  Go you therefore, and teach all nations ..

Talk about cognitive dissonance!  These forces cannot coexist much longer; a house divided cannot stand.  Thank God that He chooses to remember the goodness of America’s youth and looks upon the patient faith of Christian America today.  It is only by this Grace that He will choose to cleanse and restore rather than destroy.

Gen 18:25  “Far be it from You to do such a thing, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth deal justly?

He will make a separation between the Korahites who are now being driven to madness by their demonic hatred of President Trump’s attempts to slow the course of wickedness and even turn the ship of state back around even a little.  Those Korahites will be consumed in a nuclear flash but He is calling all those who will hear out of the condemned cities now.  The incorrigible will be driven into them as false ‘sanctuaries’ while the righteous will exit.  It’s already happening.

One of several scriptural hallmarks of America’s biblical identity is that he has mixed himself with these foreigners that do not share his faith or work for his common good.

Hos 7:8-9  Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; Ephraim has become a cake not turned.  Strangers devour his strength, yet he does not know it; Gray hairs also are sprinkled on him, yet he does not know it.

America has hired lovers, courting the favor of faithless nations with corrupt money

Hos 8:9  For they have gone up to Assyria, like a wild donkey all alone; Ephraim has hired lovers

who have sapped his strength and turned him away from his roots to idols.  All his princes have become drunk with the wine of iniquities.

Isa 28:1  Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is at the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine!

They will fall by the sword when DC is nuked.

Hos 7:16  They turn, but not upward, They are like a deceitful bow*; Their princes will fall by the sword because of the insolence of their tongue.

DC is one of the 3 ribs that shield America’s hardened heart from his Maker’s love and correction.  Their sudden and irrevocable removal, though traumatic, will be freeing in ways too many to imagine.  *Joseph is the only tribe described as having both a bow (Gen 49:22-25) and a crown (Deu 33:16) and Ephraim is the leading tribe of Joseph.  The bow and crown are key identifying signs which appear again in the rider of the White Horse of Revelation, Joseph’s most blessed son, Ephraim.

Babylon is the world-dominating system controlled by the god of this world and it shifts from place to place with the rise and fall of nations throughout history.  Babylon is always described as a woman, while Ephraim/America is a male child temporarily seduced by the Babylonian whore.  In the end times this whore falls twice.

Rev 18:2  And he cried out with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place of demons and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird.

The first of its final falls will be when NYC is nuked to ashes after which its center will shift, likely back to Rome.  NYC is another rib which, when removed, will take away Babylon’s hold on America, financially and spiritually.  A primary tool of that death grip is also headquartered there, the mainstream media, without which America can be deprogrammed of its saturating lies and heresies.

Knowing who America is, from God’s perspective, is a tremendously humbling and beautiful thing to contemplate.  Powerful words for anyone who loves Jesus and mourns America’s backsliding:

Jer 31:18-20

“Is Ephraim My dear son?
 Is he a delightful child?

 Indeed, as often as I have spoken against him, I certainly still remember him;

 Therefore My heart yearns for him;

 I will surely have mercy on him,” declares Yahweh.

The Battle Plan Against the Eagle

Jer 31:37
Thus says Yahweh,
“If the heavens above can be measured
And the foundations of the earth searched out below,
Then I will also cast off all the offspring of Israel for all that they have done”,
declares Yahweh.

The revealed Word has much to say about the Eagle and the conspiracy of nations against it.   On this site, many Biblical proofs have been shown to reveal the destiny of the Eagle/Ephraim/America.  Pulling all this information together and analyzed in the context of current events, the order of the coming battle can be summarized.

The grand wizards of the New World Order expected they would plunder America’s wealth and labor for free, gifted on a silver platter from traitors embedded in places of power and vying for its highest offices.  Had the 2016 election gone the other way America would already have been lost.  They never thought Jezebel would lose but they’ve been forced to confront a very different reality, one orchestrated from on High and therefore impossible to counter.  When the mid-terms fail to unseat President Trump they will know their only option to defeat America, before it regains overwhelming superpower, is military and it’s going to mean taking losses of assets they would otherwise have had as gifts.  Over the next five years the multi-pronged, international conspiracy to defeat America will accelerate at a furious pace.  The battle preparations are already well underway.  Puppet NK, and others, will distract while their controlling co-conspirators work feverishly to take down the Eagle in the biggest economic and military operation ever mounted.

Here, in brief, as revealed in Jesus’ Word, is the order of battle, a massive effort to destroy God’s own firstborn tribe, involving a conspiracy of nations against America & Israel (the Lion-Eagle of Dan 7:4):

1. In concert with other BRICS nations, China suddenly collapses the global financial system by dumping all US treasuries.  Doing so would destroy their value and hurt their own treasuries so it’s step they dare not take until the military battle is fully set such that they’re certain of a quick triumph over America to possess and enslave all of it.  The treasuries can be sacrificed when you stand to gain the riches of the greatest, richest nation on earth.  Keep an eye on the growing hordes of gold certain nations are amassing as insurance against financial collapse.

2. Three weeks later, with the world in financial chaos and the Eagle grounded by its loss of feathers, a severe distraction will be created in the Middle East against the state of Israel that will rapidly escalate within one week into Israel’s nuclear annihilation of Damascus.  In this process the Lion of Judah will be severely wounded.  Judah’s injury is called a wound, whereas Ephraim’s is a sickness.  Hos 5:13  Therefore Israel will be hit with weapons that strike and disappear without leaving ongoing disease, perhaps chemical.  Ephraim’s wounds bring sickness, as in the pernicious effects of radiation.

3. Immediately, in one lightning, nuclear strike, Russia will destroy three US cities: NYC, DC & LA. The shock will, of course, be unimaginable and the already crippled Eagle will be near death in total confusion and desperate grief.  The goal will be to conquer, plunder and enslave America, not wipe it out, so the blow must be extreme but measured to preserve as many coveted assets as possible.

4. Three days later a huge, sacrificial, invasion force including many Islamists, will push up from Mexico. They will aim to conquer or soften the middle of America while the east and west coasts are in ashes.  The goal will be to drain the Eagle’s remaining strength ahead of the main conquering force on its way by sea China. These invading land forces will be quickly decimated by the remaining US defenses.

5. Three days after the initial invasion and six days after the nuclear firestorm, the overwhelming China-led invasion forces take up their positions off the coast(s). At this point the Eagle will have expended all its remaining strength and be helpless to defend itself.   In the midst of inconsolable grief and anguish and against this insurmountable military alliance, total defeat will be imminent and inescapable with none to deliver.  But we have God’s promise that whole nation of Israel, both Houses, can never be cut off.

Isa 17:12
Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas;
and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters.

6. With an awesome power never seen in human history, at the edge of certain defeat, God Himself will destroy every invader and drown them in the sea, literally overnight.  Those that flee He will chase and destroy.  The One Whom even the wind and the waves obey will work a miracle will be so great, and so irrefragably the Hand of the Almighty, that the heart of America will be changed and turned back toward Him. It will be the great end-time fulfillment of ancient Israel’s deliverance from Egypt at the Red Sea, though far larger in scale and power and more awesome and humbling to behold.  In order to guarantee its victory, China will have thrown everything it has into conquering America and taking its wealth.  Now, suffering catastrophic failure, China is deposed from superpower status and left unable to challenge the immediate rise of the third beast into the power vacuum: the four-headed Euro leopard led by Germany, France, Spain and Italy.

Isa 17:13-14
The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters:
but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off,
and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind,
and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is no more.
This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.

7. Now free of the internal forces that had held America captive to every sin, and free of the wicked anti-American Korahites who set their own snare in the false refuge of their so-called “sanctuary” cities, the Eagle will begin its miraculous recovery over the next seven years of peace, with leanness of bread but richness of Grace.  During those seven years of brotherhood and revival in the USA the outside world will descend into hell as the Red Horse of war rides over the whole earth taking peace from every nation.  Even still, the end is not until the Black and Pale Horses have had their successive rides.

For those who have eyes to see and ears to hear, the wilderness sanctuary for the faithful during the great tribulation, under the wings of a newly great-again Eagle, will have been prepared to receive them.

When the House of Israel is properly recognized as distinct from and joined to the House of Judah we can see how Psalm 83 refers to a future miraculous deliverance, not indirectly through the hands and weapons of men as we have witnessed in our lifetimes, but directly through the forces of nature that He alone commands and will command against those who would destroy the House of Israel by killing firstborn Ephraim/USA.

Psalm 83 1-5,12-18
Keep not your silence, O God: hold not your peace, and be not still, O God.
For, lo, your enemies make a tumult: and they that hate you have lifted up the head.
They have taken crafty counsel against your people,
and consulted against your hidden ones.
They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.”
For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against you.

Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
As the fire burns a wood, and as the flame sets the mountains on fire;
So persecute them with your tempest, and make them afraid with your storm.
Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O Yahweh.
Let them be confounded and troubled for ever;
yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
That men may know that you, whose name alone is Yahweh,
are the Most High over all the earth!

Purim 2018 – Pivot Point for the Eagle

Today, March 1, is Purim on the modern Hillel II Jewish calendar of 358AD.  By the Biblical, observed New Moon calendar, Purim will be Saturday, Mar 3.

Why is this significant?  Purim is the 15th anniversary of the White Horse’s War on Terror, launched on Purim 2003.  This was the first time America launched a war without approval from Congress, acting unilaterally based on the blank cheque that the 2001 Patriot Act gave the President.  In the flurry of emotion that 9/11 was designed to create, Congress abdicated its constitutional role as the People’s authorization for any foreign war, surrendering it to the whims of the White House.  Never before had the US been a nation that prosecuted war at the dictate of the President, unaccountable to the House of the People’s Representatives.  Armed with this power, the White House has operated by fiat, riding its White Horse as a false messiah of peace and human rights.

Purim also marks the critical one month countdown to Passover.  The fall of the Eagle/Ephraim happens over a one month, one lunar cycle, period.  Since that period ends at Passover night with the nuclear destruction of 3 crucial regions of the nation, 3 principal cities, it follows that it begins at Purim.  Daniel tells us the process has two stages.  It begins with the Eagle losing its feathers and ends with 3 of its ribs torn out by the Bear.

Purim is the pivot point that will determine the outcome for the Eagle, and the world, in 2018.  Over the next few days we will see whether the markets enter an unrecoverable tail spin or stabilize.  The loss of feathers will be the final warning to America that its downfall and subsequent heart transplant, is at the door.  We should be on high alert for the next week as this critical period unfolds.

As in 2017, there are many very concerning signs surrounding this period again this year.  Markets have seen their biggest losses in history in February, after having seen their greatest gains over the 15 months since the US election.  Will this volatility collapse into a death spiral or stabilize? Are the unprecedented losses of February an early warning sign to the wise of much worse to come at Purim?  On Feb 5 the Dow lost 1175 points in one day.  Feb 5 is one month before Mar 5, the first trading day after the Biblical date of Purim of Mar 3.  Are the wise being given an additional one month heads up?

At the same time we have ominous war preparations going on in the Korean region.  With the Olympics over, the time for that situation to come to a head is nearly upon us. and this time, the Eagle is not bluffing.  Although North Korea is not the actor that harms the Eagle, could it have enough destabilizing effect to trigger other conflicts?  The flashpoint for the Eagle’s loss is the nuclear destruction of Damascus.  Coincidentally,  Israel has come under increasing threat from Iran, via its Syrian proxies, and is bracing for war.  Syria itself is still very unstable and all the principal engines of war are still on the ground, including the USA and Russia.  A major war in Korea could potentially distract the Eagle enough from the Middle East to embolden actors there against Israel.

Ample causes for alarm are coalescing right at this crucial time of year, creating a real potential for nuclear war on Passover, Mar 30 – Apr 1, 2018.  Another major Biblical milestone that we reach this year is the 70 year mark since the House of Judah was restored as nation under the assumed name of Israel.  It was on the Biblical date of Pentecost, just fifty days from Passover, 1948 that the modern state of Israel was officially declared and recognized the same day by the USA.  When the Eagle/Ephraim goes down, the Lion/Judah is severely wounded along with it.  This seventy year mark, 10 complete sabbatical cycles, makes this year an auspicious one for Judah – more reason to be on high alert during this Purim-Passover season.

Nevertheless, there are a number of good reasons arguing against 2018 as the year the White Horse is supplanted by the Red Horse.  One of those is that the horsemen appear to fill the final jubilee cycle in even multiples of 7 weeks of years.  Since this Purim completes the 15th year of the White Horse, another 6 years remain to fill its third sabbatical cycle.  More will be published about that and other factors soon.  Meanwhile, let us watch, pray and be wise in our precautions for this annual season of danger for the Lion-Eagle.

Passover of Peace 2017!

With the Passover timing window for 2017 now past and the Eagle’s feathers having remained intact it is now very likely that the Bear-Eagle war will not be a Passover event this year!  HalleluYah!

Despite political conditions worsening by the day on two fronts, and the potential for conflict remaining high, those events have now coloured outside the lines prescribed by the imagery of the Passover.  Markets are nervous but far from collapsing the Eagle’s banking system, and the military triggers, ominous as they are, have set the stage but not advanced to the event itself.

Where the feasts of the Lord are fulfilled as shadow pictures of much later events those events are always of tremendous significance and are fulfilled to the very day, even the hour, specified in their original observance, e.g.:

1. The death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ fulfilled the events up to and including the sacrifice of the original exodus Passover on Abib 14 perfectly.
2. When He of the Living Water, ascended to heaven 42 days later it was on the very anniversary that the cleansing flood waters of Noah’s day left the earth.
3. Eight days later He gave the gift of His Holy Spirit to His disciples and officially began His New Covenant church on the Levitical feast of Pentecost.
4. When the nation of Israel was officially proclaimed re-established in 1948 it was on the very day of Pentecost, a day symbolizing the jubilee, the year of return, the renewal of the land and society.

Future fulfillments are to come for these and all the other Biblical feasts.  We know that from the witness of fulfillments already seen and from the testimony of Paul:

Col 2:16-17
Therefore let no one judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a festival, a New Moon, or a Sabbath.
These are a shadow of the things to come, but the body that casts it belongs to Christ.

The events surrounding the fulfillment of Dan 7:4-5 and the Red Horse entrance on the world stage are earth shaking beyond anything the world has known and should be expected to resonate with the pivotal observances in the Creator’s calendar.  The scaffold of the events leading to and embodying Passover, including its week long feast of Unleavened Bread, fit much too neatly over the Lion-Eagle-Bear panorama to be any coincidence.  Moreover, the spring feasts pertain to Israel while the fall feasts pertain to the whole world.  The Lion-Eagle is an Israelite beast:  a composite of the two leading tribes of the two houses of ancient Israel: Ephraim and Judah, known today as the USA and modern Israel.  So the best scriptural evidence is that these events should coincide with Passover, some year soon, but apparently not 2017.

Of course, anything could still happen at any time.  The arm of the Lord is not shortened by human perspectives and there is so much to keep watching.  Many secular sources offer cogent analysis of these geopolitical events, but it is the purpose of this site to watch the scriptural signs that point to the fulfillment of Dan 7:4-5 and its associated events.  The exit of the White Horse and entrance of the Red Horse is the most important end time event for America, and the world, as it starts an urgent countdown toward the return of Messiah, begins the preparation of His firstborn to be a specially sanctified body unto Him, tried by fire and blessed with mercy, and to be a refuge of faith when the days become darkest under the Black and Pale Horses.

Many will fall away from the faith, disillusioned by false doctrines and losing hope of His coming when they find themselves in dire situations they thought the church would be exempted from by a preemptive ‘rapture’ out of harm’s way.  Knowledge of the times and seasons both present and future is a great shield against deception.  One cannot be disillusioned if one can dispel illusions beforehand.   And so, we keep a wakeful watch for the signs Jesus has provided for His followers and sing praise for mercies that are new every morning!

1 Th 1-5
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night.
For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes upon them,
like labour pains upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
You are all the children of light, and the children of the day:
we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

Breaking: White Horse Exit Announced!

In the last 24 hours a major announcement has been made by the office of the rider of the White Horse.  Before a joint session of Congress in the House of Representatives, President Donald J Trump officially announced a dramatic departure from the role the White House has been playing for many years now.

On Feb 28, 2017 President Trump declared to the American people and the world:

“We will respect historic institutions, but we will also respect the sovereign rights of nations.

Free nations are the best vehicle for expressing the will of the people — and America respects the right of all nations to chart their own path. My job is not to represent the world. My job is to represent the United States of America. But we know that America is better off, when there is less conflict — not more.

We must learn from the mistakes of the past — we have seen the war and destruction that have raged across our world.”

This is an historic break from the posture America has taken for at least the last generation.  Indeed, for the last fourteen years, America has prosecuted unprovoked and unconscionable wars under the high-flown banner of its own deathbed democracy, telling other nations they should/must live as the West does, and killing many millions in its pursuit of global hegemony.  In Iraq alone, far in excess of 500,000 children alone were killed under the pretext of playing at being the messiah ridding the world of a deplorable dictator.  Just the depleted uranium, left saturating Iraq, will extend the suffering of countless more, sentencing them to an agonizing, creeping cancerous death.

The rider of the White Horse wore a crown with the title “King of the Free World”.  His quiver was filled with deadly arrows boasting the latest technology and he launched them at  his own discretion from his high perch in the White House. Presuming to speak for all ‘democratic’ states and flouting his self-assessed moral superiority, this crown is a total fraud.  And now, finally, that fraud has been rejected by the new White House.  The White Horse is taking its final bow.

No more will the White House think, speak and act from high upon its horse while trampling the poor, the desperate and helpless underfoot.  President Trump’s declaration makes clear that the time of the White Horse is now ending.  He does not view his job as that of a world leader.  He rejects the notion that it’s America’s way or else.  He will respect the sovereignty of nation states to determine for themselves how they will govern and live.  Moreover, he wants the mistakes that previous White Houses have made to be examples of how not to rule America/Ephraim.

And how was this declaration received by the Korahites in the chamber?   They sat on their hands, fuming, clucking their tongues, barely able to restrain their inward shrieking, many of the women emphatically garbed as whitewashed tombs and just as full of dead men’s bones.  It’s beyond belief that America has come a point where a common sense affirmation of other nations’ right to chart their own course and America’s intent to do likewise is received as blasphemy.  It as if they had sworn oaths to destroy the USA on the altar of global government.  Bu that couldn’t be .. could it?

These are wonderful statements and by themselves they offer a real hope for a return to a more upright government of, by and for the people.  However, as Christians we must recognize that the exit of the White Horse heralds the entrance of the Red Horse.  The Red Horse rides over the whole earth during the period of global warfare that Jesus spoke about in Mat 13:8 (and elsewhere):

“Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.”

Judgment comes first to the House of Israel and these wars will start with Ephraim/USA and Judah/Israel.  They are only the beginning.  The first birth pang will be the deadly wound to America when the Bear rips out three of its ribs and Israel suffers a wound great enough to force it to use nuclear weapons to survive.  Into the power vacuum left by the former white-mounted global policeman will step Europe, the four-headed leopard, and wars will erupt in diverse places over a seven year period when peace is taken from the whole earth.

The good news for America is that the Eagle will be helped to its feet, supernaturally, and given a new heart!  During the seven years of the Red Horse, as the world convulses in war upon war, America will be helped to recover in a peace borne out of a miraculous deliverance from foreign invaders and a true repentance that will sweep across a devastated, yet thankful, nation in a awesome revival of Christianity like nothing the world has ever seen.

During that time, America’s famine of physical food will be compensated by a feast of the Word.  No more will Ephraim live by bread alone.  This feast will last seven years until the Black and Pale Horses usher in a great darkness and the terrible famine of the Word during the last heptad of the age of man.  Just as in Joseph’s Egypt, God will first provide His seven year feast to prepare all who will seek Him to face the unprecedented famine at the close of the age.

The word has now officially gone out from the White House.  Anyone paying close attention to President Trump knows that, unlike his political predecessors, his words are not empty, high sounding but hollow sentiments.  In the style and tone of man who says what he means and means what he says, he has consistently acted in full accordance with the substance of his campaign.  President Trump’s words are straightforward, delivered unflinchingly and not to be taken lightly.  It is well past time to prepare for the cataclysmic debut of the Red Horse.

The Key to When!

In all prophecy, the most elusive element is the time dimension.  The events surrounding the Eagle and the Bear were foretold thousands of years ago, by at least five different prophets, but have remained locked in the treasuries of God until our day.  The who, what, where, how and why were opened well over a decade ago, yet the all-important question when remained shrouded.  The only certain time cue was that the Eagle’s feathers would be plucked shortly before the ribs were torn out by the Bear.  Once we see the feathers plucked then we can know the Bear-Eagle conflict is at hand and to take whatever final precautions we are able with all speed.

There are reasons to expect, even hope, that the terrible events of Dan 7:4-5 will happen around Passover, in the spring.  With faith in the mercy of God, we can hope that the nuclear devastation of 3 major US cities, which must come, would happen with the warm weather of spring and summer on the doorstep.  As many survivors from surrounding regions will have to flee and many supply lines will be cut off, let it not be in winter.

Now, an amazing new key, recently revealed, unlocks the timing of the season of these events with astonishing precision!  Isaiah has been telling us plainly all along:

Isaiah 17
¹² Woe to the multitude of many people who make a noise like the roar of the seas,
And to the rushing of nations that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
¹³ The nations will rush like the rushing of many waters;
But God will rebuke them and they will flee far away,
And be chased like the chaff of the mountains before the wind,
Like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
¹⁴ Then behold, at eventide, trouble!
And before the morning, he is no more.
This is the portion of those who plunder us, and the lot of those who rob us [Ephraim].

This chapter is intrinsic to the modern Ephraim revelations.  Speaking of the very climax of these events, the Word reveals a great, coordinated and fearsome assault, by multiple nations, that falls flat and ends in disaster for the invaders.  Isaiah tells us of a spectacular deliverance that will astonish world and destroy the whole camp of Ephraim’s adversaries.  With a definitive timing seldom found in prophecy we’re even given the times of day for this great vanquishing by the mighty hand of God Himself.

At eventide (evening) the crisis comes to a point of no return.  All chance of rescue, apart from God Himself, is lost.  ‘Trouble’ is a typically compact way for the Word to describe a truly dire situation.  This dramatic precipice is reached at evening and yet is completely and miraculously resolved by the very next morning!  God Himself rebukes, chases and wipes out the plunderers.  What ancient Biblical shadow casts its timeless pointer through history directly to these words?

Yes, this is nothing less than a full scale, latter day fulfillment of Israel’s deliverance from Pharaoh’s army at the Red Sea!  It was evening when Pharaoh arrived to find Israel trapped at the edge of the Red Sea with no visible means of escape and all hope lost.  Then, in an astounding turn of events, God parted the Red Sea and stood as a pillar simultaneously blocking Pharaoh’s way and giving light to Israel.  All night Israel walked by that light, on dry ground though the sea, to the safety of the opposite shore.  By the time the pre-dawn light appeared Israel was out of reach and Pharaoh’s way to the sea was opened.  They rushed in with the roar of victory in their mouths until God snatched it from them in the time it took for towering walls of water to come crashing down.  This same crushing defeat awaits the vultures that will gather to pillage the fallen Eagle!

Col 2
¹⁶ So let no one judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a festival or a new moon or sabbaths,
¹⁷ which are a shadow of things to come, but the substance is of Christ.

With the illuminating story of Passover and its fiery Author to guide us, we can now know the very day of this approaching event!  The feasts of the Lord are shadows of things to come and this shadow has a date.  The grand Red Sea finale capped the miracles of the first Passover week on the seventh and final day of Passover, known as the seventh day of unleavened bread, which falls on Abib/Nisan 21 in the Biblical calendar.  While we still don’t know the year with certainty, we can have all confidence that the culmination of the Bear-Eagle events, the miraculous deliverance from invasion and ruin, will come on Abib/Nisan 21.  In 2017, that falls on on Apr 18 according the modern Jewish calendar, possibly Apr 17 by the observed New Moon calendar (to be determined when the new moon is sighted in Jerusalem).

Knowing the end date for these awesome events, we can work backwards now to see how the whole sequence of events (feathers, Damascus, ribs, two invasions and deliverance) fits into the panorama of Passover. That will be the subject of the next post.

^{Dan 12:8-10}
Although I heard, I did not understand.
Then I said, “My lord, what shall be the end of these things?”  
And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.
Many shall be purified, made white, and refined,
but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand,
but the wise shall understand.

White Horse: 14th Anniversary – Mar 13

The White Horse/House’s war on terror began on Purim in 2003 with its completely illegal invasion of Iraq using deliberately fraudulent excuses as a cover to begin its campaign of regime change across the Arab world.  Wearing the crown of “Leader of the Free World” and armed with advanced missiles, this rider went out preaching in the name of peace and social justice to spread its false messiah of democracy.  It went out conquering and to conquer seven nations by its bow: “we’re going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran” – Gen. Wesley Clark , former head of NATO.

Gen Wesley Clark reveals the genesis of the White Horse

NATO is the White Horse and its rider is the White House.  It has conquered but not conquered all that it purposed and now its time is at hand.  Purim 2017 will be the White Horse’s 14th anniversary.  Two full heptads will be fulfilled on Mar 13, 2017.  The start of the new Biblical year comes just two weeks later, on Abib/Nisan 1 on Mar 29.  Will there be a 3rd heptad allotted to the White Horse?  It seems highly unlikely as all signs point to the end of the White Horse’s ride and the start of the Red Horse.  All four horsemen have terms that are measured in heptads, each one getting shorter and more intense than its predecessor in the lead up to the capstone of the whole Jubilee cycle when Christ establishes the Kingdom of God on earth.

The seven year, single heptad, of the wars of the Red Horse will begin with the exit of the White Horse and the first great end-time conflict: the Bear tearing 3 ribs from the Eagle and a Middle East holocaust.  Shortly before those ribs are torn, the Eagle will have its feathers plucked.  An eagle without feathers can’t fly, can’t hunt or feed itself and becomes easy prey for a Bear.  The looming financial collapse is the plucking of the feathers.When feathers are plucked, it is acted upon by an outside force.  The bird does not pluck its own feathers and it does not happen gradually.  It is not a natural process of progressive feather loss over time nor is it accidental.  It is sudden, intentional, painful and catastrophic for the bird.

This coming crash will be swift and irrevocable and on a scale never before seen.  It will be orchestrated to leave Trump unable to pursue his agenda and it will leave the Eagle unable to fend for itself, weak, flightless and vulnerable to predators.  It will also leave Israel (the Lion part of the Dan 7:4 Lion-Eagle beast) without the Eagle’s protection.  This sudden vulnerability will be seized upon by its confederacy of enemies whose unquenchable thirst for both Judah and Ephraim’s blood will inspire a massive attack on Judea.  The intent and the scale of this attack will be to destroy Israel once and for all and it will require the dreaded nuclear response from Israel that leaves Damascus in ruins.  Once wars go nuclear they flash over like lightning.  Later that night, the Eagle will lose 3 ribs in the same manner. If 14 years is the White Horse’s term limit, we can expect its collapse to begin shortly after that double heptad expires on Mar 13, 2017.

“Coincidentally”, the Fed banksters are due to make their next major announcement on interest rates and monetary policy on Mar 14-15.  As agents of the NWO, their top priority now is to sabotage the Trump administration using the most powerful weapons they have.  All attempts to dethrone him have so far failed and the longer he is able to pursue his agenda the more desperate the measures to defeat him will become.

Also on Mar 15 the suspension of the debt ceiling will expire. This means the debt ceiling will freeze at 20 trillion and further borrowing will be outlawed.  At the rate the Treasury is burning through their cash, they will be broke by summer.  The markets always look ahead to price in events well ahead of time and they aren’t going to wait for summer to react to the cliff that suddenly becomes hard coded in law on Mar 15.  In normal times there is a great willingness for the powers that be to preserve the status quo through some kind of compromise, but these are not normal times.  The deep state wants Trump to fail and that motivation will outweigh the catastrophe the American people will be left to suffer.

To make matters worse, Friday Mar 17 is a so-called ‘triple-witching’ date when the expiry dates on contracts for stock index futures, stock index options and stock options all converge on the same day.  These dates are especially vulnerable to volatility because contracts that expire may require the buying or selling of the underlying security.  These forced transactions, all coming at the same time, can gyrate markets at the best of times.  This time we have a perfect storm of powerful, hidden forces that are skewed heavily away from maintaining stability.

There is a storm planned for the Ides of March.  We are now two weeks away from the end of the White Horse’s second heptad.  With a third heptad unlikely, we are likely just two weeks away from the Eagle’s feathers being plucked and just over 40 days from a unimaginable destruction on US soil.  If the feathers have come off by Mar 29 (Abib/Nisan 1) then the Destroyer will enter the land on Passover night 2017.

12 vs 13

How many apostles were there: 12 or 13?

In a brief departure from the main theme of this site, this post will address a pernicious heresy infecting parts of the Body of Christ, particularly Hebrew-Roots oriented fellowships, where this leaven originates.  Incredibly, this doctrine claims that Christ Himself condemns the Apostle Paul as a liar and a false apostle in Rev 2:2 and it’s gained a dismaying amount of traction in recent years, but it’s not new.  Paul suffered character assassination and betrayal repeatedly in his ministry, always at the hands of those who opposed the gospel of Christ, resisted the Holy Spirit and denied the fullness of the New Covenant He suffered and died for that we might have life and liberty.

Paul is the single biggest obstacle to those who deny the terms of the NC, insisting that most of the Old Covenant legalism remains in full force today.  He is a powerful advocate for the spiritual covenant, writes from a deeply spiritual mind and spiritual things are hard for the natural mind to understand.  When the Holy Spirit’s testimony through Paul cannot be understood by such carnal minds or overcome by twisting scripture into fractured contradictions, the last resort is to assassinate Paul.  Just as the ancient Israelites killed the prophets they were sent when they disliked their message, now the New Covenant church is infiltrated by that same spirit jealous to bring it into bondage to Judaism and must kill Christ’s messenger to the Gentiles to achieve it.  But it’s not really Paul they’re resisting; it’s the power that animated and enabled Paul to overcome and accomplish all that he did: the Holy Spirit Himself.

Foundational to this heresy is the notion that, since there are only twelve apostles, twelve foundation stones of the New Jerusalem and not 13 (Rev 21:14) , then Paul can’t be a true apostle because Matthias was given the 12th and final office of apostle in Acts 1 when he replaced Judas.  And since Paul lied about being an apostle he is further disqualified, according to this heresy, from having been inspired in any of his writings, which must then either be torn out of the Bible altogether or reduced to a cheap, historical, often errant, even demonic commentary, to be degraded and disregarded at the reader’s judgment.

Honest, spirit-led followers of Jesus Christ know, and readily admit, that when apparent problems arise with understanding passages in the Word of God (minor translation issues aside) the problem is with us and our dull vision, not with the Holy Spirit who inspired its writing.  Not so with those who murder Paul in their hearts.  They’ve passed judgment on him and more importantly, on the Holy Spirit Himself who inspired Paul’s testimony and others’ testimony about Paul.  No wonder Peter, by the same Holy Spirit, in 2 Pet 3:16 says the wrenching of Paul’s testimony by these ignorant and irreverent persons ends in the most grave consequences:

.. speaking about these things as he does in all of his letters. In which there are some things that are difficult to understand, which the untaught and unstable [who have fallen into error] twist and misinterpret, just as they do the rest of the Scriptures, to their own destruction.

Dovetailing with Peter’s warning are Jesus’ own words in Luk 12:10 (here in the Amplified version) where He warns us against the one sin remaining for which there is no forgiveness:

And everyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit [that is, whoever intentionally discredits the Holy Spirit by attributing the authenticating miracles done by Me to Satan], it will not be forgiven him [for him there is no forgiveness].

Casting Paul’s miraculous conversion, by the risen Christ Himself, and his tireless work in the office of apostle as a fraud, and Paul as a lying enemy of the cross is something no one should take lightly.  Satan is the father of lies and the lie that Paul’s supernatural conversion on the road to Damascus was just a hoax underwritten by Satan and incorporated into Holy scriptures in order to derail countless millions away from the letter of the Old Covenant, and further declaring that Paul is actually condemned by Christ in Rev 2:2, seems terrifyingly within the Lord’s no-go zone proscribed in Luk 12:10.

Nevertheless, the question about 12 or 13 apostles deserves an answer and its study is quite revealing.  Let’s look at the scriptural facts surrounding the presumed 12th apostle, Matthias, as given in the whole first chapter of Acts.

When the apostles came together to appoint a replacement for Judas, they did so on their own initiative.  This was during the one week between Jesus’ ascension and Pentecost while, according to the Lord’s command, they were supposed to just be waiting for the baptism of the Holy Spirit a few days later.

Acts 1:5  for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

At this point the indwelling of the Holy Spirit had not yet been given, these well-intentioned, zealous men were acting however it seemed good to their own private counsel in their carnal minds.  But they were not instructed to take on any such duties and could be considered as violating Jesus’ command to wait until they received power from above.

Acts 1:8  But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Certainly such a weighty, indeed presumptuous, appointment required great power and they hadn’t received it and they knew that much.  Technically they were still staying in the city, so that letter of His command was kept, but they couldn’t honestly have said that they had received the promised power yet. But hadn’t they already received the Holy Spirit when He appeared to them after His resurrection that first Sunday?

John 20:21-22  So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit”.

Since all scripture agrees and cannot be broken, we must acknowledge that they received some measure of the Spirit when He breathed on them but clearly not with the great power that He would pour out on Pentecost, 40 days later.  That power manifested with miracles of tongues, of flames of fire, of a mighty wind and of many conversions.  Nothing of note happened when He breathed on them, at least nothing any thought worthy of recording.  We know that there are diversities of gifts imparted by His Spirit, some greater than others.  The Holy Spirit is not a binary toggle where you’re either filled with it or you have none.  When Saint Stephen was stoned to death he was “full of the Holy Spirit” such that it overwhelmed the brutal reality of what was happening to him in the flesh.  Our fleshly vessels can be anywhere from empty of the Spirit to overflowing.  At this point, 40 days before Pentecost, nothing of particular note had changed in them.  They still didn’t grasp that the NC is a spiritual covenant, administered and mediated by Christ alone, empowered supernaturally by His Holy Spirit, and OC rituals, like the casting of lots, no longer served any purpose or held any power.  The power was in Jesus’ Spirit and He was explicit that they needed to wait a few days before they would receive that outpouring.  They didn’t begin to grasp the spiritual nature of the NC vs the OC that until Pentecost as Peter testified in Acts 2 beginning at verse 14.

They knew all power was now invested in Christ because He told them so.  It wasn’t in lots or in a human high priest or in the temple with the torn veil laying bare a newly void Holy of Holies or in any other place, person or process.

Mat 28:18 And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth.

No apostle had been appointed by any man, even by another apostle, but they mistakenly thought, based on a dead OC ritual, they should “roll the dice” anyway.  Even the pre-selection criteria for who would be eligible to be in the lottery was entirely of their own devising, based solely on their physical presence and physical witness during the whole of Christ’s ministry.  It seems reasonable enough to the carnal mind to require a corroborating witness to complement their own, but that was their estimation of what constituted a worthy candidate for this high office.  Certainly when Messiah chose them it wasn’t because of material witnesses since He knew them spiritually long before those events could be witnessed.  No one knows the heart like the One who fashioned it.

Matthias was therefore never a legitimate apostle of Christ, though the eleven naturally presumed to count him among them at the time.  The best one might say is that he was nominated by the eleven as an apostle’s deputy or associate.  Certainly we never hear anything of him carrying out the work of that very high office afterward. The eleven’s whole vain exercise of trying to select an apostle for themselves is also instructive about the emptiness of the OC rituals.  E.g. we don’t cast lots to make spiritual decisions anymore.  Their power is gone; they are now only mere shadows of the real power.  Christ is that reality, it’s all invested in Him, and no apostolic power exists apart from His direct, personal appointment.  Accordingly, Acts 9 recounts how the Lord Himself directly appeared to and began transforming Paul with great signs and power.  It was according to His time and place and by choosing a man whom the eleven would never have chosen, so that Christ’s redeeming power might be all the more glorified in him.  That transforming process wasn’t a flip-of-the-wrist, instant event either; it was a three year re-education in cloistered communion with the Spirit of the Lord (Gal 1:16-18).

There are indeed twelve, and only twelve, apostles appointed by Jesus.  These are the twelve foundation stones of the New Jerusalem.  They hold the very highest kingdom offices, directly under the King of Kings Himself.  Even from a human perspective of governmental order, in any such power hierarchy, the lower level never appoints someone to serve the higher.  The order of appointment is always top down.  First the top office, Jesus Melchizedek, appoints those will serve directly under Him.  Then those in turn appoint others to serve in various capacities under them, and so on.  But the lower level never tells the higher level who will serve it, and certainly not in God’s Kingdom.  No one had or has any authority to appoint someone to serve directly under Christ except Christ Himself.  His government is perfect and therefore in perfect order.

It’s we who too often presume to leverage scripture in a way that seems right to us, to justify our own counsel, which is exactly what the eleven did.  They were not told to do this, but Peter quickly tired of waiting, so he found justification in scripture to serve his notion and rushed to appoint an office over which none of them had any authority.  None of them were appointed by any one of themselves, yet with Jesus gone up somewhere they knew not, they saw fit to take this mantle upon themselves. That kind of rash, ill-considered action was in character for Peter, and of course he was right that another needed to take that vacant office.  But carnal thinking combined with zeal for action is not a recipe with much room for wisdom.  Right motives, but uninspired, wrong actions, which ended up yielding nothing.  We know that because we have the fruit to judge by.  By comparison, Christ’s action yielded enormous fruit for countless millions through Paul, and remains ever-bearing abundantly to this day.

It’s all strikingly reminiscent of the golden calf incident in Exo 32.  Once Moses was away up on the hidden mountain top for ‘too long’ in the peoples’ eyes, the elders got tired of tarrying, as they had been instructed to do:
So Moses arose with Joshua his servant, and Moses went up to the mountain of God. But to the elders he said, “Wait here for us until we return to you.
Under pressure for some remedial action to fill this vacant office, they did what seemed good in their own eyes, guided by their still Egyptian mindset – and so did the eleven according to their Old Covenant mindset.  The illuminating contrast shows us:

1. The Exodus group didn’t even have the letter yet to guide them, so they failed miserably by employing the wickedness they knew and ended with sickness and tragedy.
2. The Eleven didn’t have the Holy Spirit yet to guide them, so they failed by applying the now-defunct OC letter they knew and ended up with a null result.

Their instruments were different but their circumstances and human responses were quite the same; human nature has not changed.  Of course the mindset of the eleven was not grounded in Egyptian sorcery so they acted in good faith by applying the letter of scripture to the problem, as they saw it.  They even appealed to the Lord in prayer to put His power into the lots, but there are two glaring problems with this: first, the Lord Jesus had not yet taken the High Priest’s office* and second, when the Holy Spirit is given He is given to and works in people, not objects.  One of numerous and key differences between the carnal and spiritual covenants is the transition from the Holy Spirit operating externally and episodically upon people to an indwelling, abiding and empowering presence.  So the end result of their OC ritual was, like all such works of the flesh, null and void.

*An even deeper study of Jesus’ death, resurrection, appearances and ascension shows that He ascended on the 42nd day of the 50 day count to Pentecost, after having been seen by them for 40 days from His resurrection.  This left exactly seven days, days 43-49, to fulfill the seven day sanctification period for the high priest (Lev 8:33-35).  In the full context of the legal code, which He fulfilled in every jot and tittle,  His direction for them to wait perfectly aligns with those priestly regulations and the timing of His assuming that high office on the 50th day, Pentecost.  His first act was to send the Comforter on that inaugural day, which fully explains His instruction to them to wait a short time for the power they lacked in order to assume their own roles under Him as apostles.  No underling, appointed by their superior, takes office before their superior.  Christ is preeminent in all things and had they waited the few days until after Pentecost they would have known this was not in their power to do.  Christ had much bigger plans that they could never have accepted in the natural, considering the unconverted Saul was no friend to their cause.

It’s a wonderful lesson in the spirit vs the letter, which is at the root of the whole anti-Paul heresy.  Apostle Paul himself, by the utterance of the Holy Spirit, says it best in 2 Cor 3:6:

Who also has made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.

Korah, Then and Now

The defiant divide in America continues to deepen and harden.  The further President Trump moves toward implementing his agenda the more entrenched the war against him becomes.  This war is being led on three fronts:

1. The political establishment in DC
2. The mainstream, leftist ‘news’ media: ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, NBC et al
3. The entertainment cult leaders of movies, music, sports and underworld ‘arts’

This undeclared civil war forms a striking parallel with the rebellion Moses faced in the wilderness soon after having left Egypt.  These rebels were intransigent in their resentful opposition to Moses’ leadership.  They proclaimed a humanist doctrine that everyone was as righteous and suited for any role as anyone else, no matter who they were, and that Moses was not entitled to exercise rule over them.  Sound familiar?  It goes even deeper.

Korah’s rebels were led by three main factions represented by  Korah, Dathan and Abiram.  All these were of the tribe of Levi, the tribe set aside for the service of the Temple, the very centre of society .  That service has three primary functions:

1. The priest’s office.  These are the ones who officiated over the people and mediated between God and the nation, performing the highly visible rituals in Temple service.  In our secular society, this is analogous to the political class of DC.
2. The scribe’s office.  These record keepers worked under the priests preparing decrees issued by the priesthood, recording and copying official documents.  Today we look to the mass media to create and report the record of government activity.
3. The singer’s office.  This group functioned in the services to provide the beauty of song to the glorification of God.  Our culture is dominated by the worship of singers and actors who direct all the glory and attention to themselves, exerting enormous influence over an entranced populace that has surrendered all critical and logical thought to this class of vacuous, professional fakers.

At Trump’s inauguration we witnessed yet another startling parallel to the Korah insurrection when sixty-seven elected democrats refused to attend the event.  Their reasons all centred on their various claims that Trump’s election is illegitimate in their eyes and their refusal to recognize a leader they openly despise.  Insisting upon showing their contempt for President Trump, the democratic process and the will of the people, they said, “We will not come up!”  Compare that to the same event in Num 16 when Moses appealed to the rebel leaders to meet with him.

Num 16:12-14:
Then Moses sent a summons to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab; but they said,
“We will not come up.”
Is it not enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to have us die in the wilderness, but you would also lord it over us? “Indeed, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor have you given us an inheritance of fields and vineyards. Would you put out the eyes of these men?
We will not come up!”

This was and is an extremely serious situation.  There was no reasoning with a people who were completely consumed by their unjustified hatred of their legitimate ruler.  A house divided against itself cannot stand.  For the good of the nation this situation could not be allowed to continue then, and it will not be allowed to continue now.  In order to save the nation from its own cannibalism the rebels had to be decisively removed.

Reading on in this chapter we see that God made a clear distinction between the people of peace and those of hate.  Those who aligned with the rebels were isolated and then swallowed up by the earth in a moment, leaving the rest of the nation to come together in peaceful unity.  Sadly, America is now poised at the edge of just such a traumatic purge. The rebellion we’re seeing fill the streets, fomented by the three levers of control over the public mind and heart, will have a sudden and irrevocable end.

Pro 29:1
He who is often rebuked, and hardens his neck,
Will suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.

Those who are now gnashing their teeth in public displays of rabid rage against President Trump are signing their own death warrants.  And this death will not be by the hand of man where money and power might deliver.  No, when the Bear rips out these three ribs it will permanently remove the hardened rebel camps and free the rest of Ephraim/America to unite under the banner of Jesus Christ.  There is still time for those who align with a move toward peace and justice and truth to separate themselves from these centres of incorrigible rebellion, NYC, DC and LA, and relocate far enough inland to escape the nuclear holocaust that will obliterate these Korahites in a moment.

Rev 18:4:
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues”
