Tick Tock

I'll say it one more time for any who have not been listening. I am not a prophet. Our Master, Himself said, "The law and the prophets were until John". We have the Holy Spirit to teach us now. Let me share with you, at this late hour, those things which I believe He has unveiled to me, what I believe He wants you to know, so you will believe, because He told you before it happened. It's there, in His Word.


The unbelieving world teeters on the edge of a precipice, about to be plunged into the most horrific time in history. The Lord will come out of His place to judge the inhabitants of the earth, on the Day of The Lord. Just before the sudden destruction is the day of the watchmen. There are those who take seriously the admonition of the Lord, where He says, "If you will not keep watch, I will come on you like a thief." Those watchmen, who are the Philadelphia end times church, have an open door placed in front of them ( see Rev. 4:1), that no man can shut (the naysayers of the Rapture). The Master says it is because they have kept "the Word of His patience". They have kept up their eager anticipation, their continual searching of the scriptures, and their warnings to the world of the signs at hand, and all of this despite being "proven wrong" and called "a false prophet". The signs are written about, there in His Word. They have endured because of the hope that HE has placed within them. By the study of His Word, they have acquired this patience.


Romans 15:4 For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.

1 John 3:2-3 Dear friends, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him because we will see Him as He is and everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself just as He is pure. (What is our hope, but The Master, Himself?) Titus 2:13 while we wait for the blessed hope and appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

It is plain that the scriptures reveal to us the plan of the Master, and that our diligence in seeking Him will reveal the Face of our hope. He shows us what is to happen, through the knowledge of His Word. The Holy Spirit opens the up the true meanings of the words, gives understanding, to those who pay attention. The end times are taking shape before our very eyes, yet are not heeded by the world. But then, Dan. 12:10 says only "the wise will understand".

The Song of Solomon shows us the rapture of the Body of Christ.(Ephesians 5:23, I Corinthians 12:27) She is the "gentile" woman searching and watching for her beloved. She begins at a place of ambivalence (chapter 5) which later changes to soul aching passion and longing (lovesick) as she seeks Him throughout the city from which He reigns. This book is eloquent of how HE enhances her longing for Him, speaks lovingly to her of how much He desires her, and then puts her "among the chariots of my noble people" (which is the same exclamation of Elisha, when witnessing the rapture of Elijah). She speaks of the resurrection when she observes how "love is stronger than death, and fiercer than the flames of Yah" (Song of Solomon 8, the flames are a reference to hell).

Israel is our prophetic timepiece. It is important to keep meticulous track of what is transpiring with her so we may know the time of the redemption of our bodies. May 14th is the 70th anniversary of the birth of Israel (remember the phrase "this generation shall not pass"?). There is much agitation amongst her neighbors, those riots and hate mongers  at her borders, where those who hate her seek to enter her from the north for her destruction, seek to provoke wrath and sympathy for themselves. The pressure is building for other nations to make intervention. Russia and Iran are already there in Syria, with many troops and bases. Because of this, Israel bombs her neighbor to the north, seeking to protect her security, but unfortunately, she works with the sunni side of islam to do this. There is total deception in that cult. How can she but lose to trust them? Discernment tells me that the  recent gas attack was staged by the isis rebels, to make it  possible for the U.S. to bomb in Syria on behalf of their creation, isis. Israel and the U.S. are being pitted against Russia and Iran by the two sides of the sunni and shia schism of islam! When the Restrainer is taken out of the way, which is the Spirit in the church, Russia and Iran (and Turkey, which is where the sarin gas has been coming from, into Syria) will attack from their staging area in Syria. This is clear from the foreshadowing in the account of the rapture of Elijah. Elijah is a type of the church, and Elisha is a type of Israel. When the "40 youths" revile Elisha, because his benefactor is taken from him, but he is left behind, he curses them. As a result, bears come out to ravage these "youths". The bear is a symbol of the kingdom of Persia, now called Iran (as is seen in the visions of the beasts in the book of Daniel).

The rapture is also a sign to Israel, of the identity of the true king and messiah, the one they did not recognize in time because they did not have the "oil" in their lamp, which is the light of His Word, the New Testament. Israel must believe Jesus is who He said He is (when they say "blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord) before she can enter the time of the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, the time of His reign. Jesus said this Kingdom of Heaven is like the ten virgins waiting for the bridegroom, but only five went into the wedding, like a man going on a long journey to receive a kingdom ( I believe a reference to second Passover as explained below), who leaves his servants in charge of his business, like a king who gives a wedding feast for his son, but none of the invited guests deign to attend, so he invites everyone else. (Those "everyone else" are the "gentile" church, which has been grafted into the covenant by the blood of Christ.)

The Word interprets the Word. It says that God works on a time schedule. "In the fullness of time" is an oft repeated phrase when the Word speaks of prophetic fulfillment. In the fullness of time, God sent His Son, on the fourth "day of creation" the Sun (Son) was revealed. Hosea 6:3 says, " HE shall come to us as the former and latter rains unto the earth", the winter and spring rains causing the two grain harvests (referencing the Feasts of The Lord observed in Israel), Passover in spring, before the  heat of summer and it's second kind of grain, then comes the grape harvest (which is the winepress of the wrath of the Almighty). Passover and it's Feast of Firstfruits revealed to us the nature of His first coming, where He would become the sacrificial Lamb. The Feast of Trumpets reveals the nature of His second coming (and His wrath on unbelievers), that of the conquering King, who saves Israel from war and then judges them. He must come to Israel on the "dawn of the seventh day" if He is to be their Sabbath rest. The father of John the Baptist said, "He will come to us like the dawn." The seventh "day" has already begun! Six "days" have been completed since creation! It has also been two "days" since He was here for His first coming. Hosea 6:2 says, "After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his sight."

As to TIMING, take note how the "called out ones" are the body of Christ, while HE is our head (Ephesians 5:23). We "carry" the dead body of Messiah in us, as did the men who carried the body of Joseph, who was a prototype of the Messiah. These men had their Passover in the SECOND month. As the King was resurrected just after the slaughter of the lamb on Passover, so shall we be during our own Passover, which is appointed to us in  Numbers 9:6,10,11, where the Word speaks of the Second Passover. This is the very same week that Noah entered into the ark ("as it was in the days of Noah so shall the coming of the Son of Man be" which happened in the second month, the first month being appointed in Ex 12:2). This is the same week that Joshua had the armies parade around the city of Jericho ( and I  believe the same week we've been speaking of) after they had observed the Passover (We have a strong city. Open the gates for the righteous nation to enter in" in Isaiah 26). It is also the same time of year that Sodom and Gomorrah where destroyed, and only righteous Lot, with his family, was saved, by being forcibly taken out. Lot is the prototype of the church ("As in the days of Lot" says the Master). Another source of this timing is in the book of Ruth, that famous tale of the Kinsman Redeemer. Notice that the marriage takes place about the time of the end of the barley harvest, for she is laying at His feet on the threshing floor at the end of the harvest. She had uncovered his feet to ask for His protection. The Song of Solomon also makes it clear that when the beloved is taken into the "chariot", is when she had gone out to see the fresh plants in the valley, to check the starting growth of the harvest. This is spring being pictured. 

The 17th of April starts the second month. Are you ready? Are you His, and is He, yours? "I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine."

The Glory of the Lord!

My observation, is that one can care far too much about what our fellow travelers think of us. Their voices transform into the demonic accusations of our own mind, condemning us before we even begin. How can our dreams be anything but dark and troubled when we are so relentlessly pursued? Voices of expectation pummel us with their hatred and with violence.

Disrespect and dishonor are the language and tactics of the adversary, whereas OUR Lord dispenses revelation transformation that AWAKENS us! He, this Lord of ours, invokes our curiosity and provokes our wonder (for HE is our PRAISE!)  He triggers revelation thinking and wants us to understand! This is how He adds to our stature and blesses us with significance!

I accept the strength and revelation knowledge that comes from the test, by the exercise of my faith! The very things I counted as weakness, to the mind of my flesh, have become my strengths! Thus is the glory of the Lord revealed in a vessel of clay! His love! His patience! His grace! This is His glory, to bring life from death through ressurection, to bring beauty from ashes, joy unspeakable from pain, and peace from tumultuous times! Complete healing comes from His hand! His glory is to turn around, and inside out, the worst of possible circumstances, so they become the very vehicle He uses to deliver His blessing! The very terrible conflict will release bountiful blessing from Him when we praise Him in the midst! We don’t realize, most of the time, that the only difference between good and bad is our perception of it!

Keep the mind on Christ, and the lips praising Him, until the gift, which is Himself, is unveiled before our very eyes! Our chains are already broken! We are already free!

Grace

It's only Thursday. Nothing good ever happens on a Thursday. This day cannot even be compared to the revelations implicit to the third or the seventh days, being lost, somewhere, between the test and it's consequential judgement. Thursday is the day that is for waiting and patience (that dreaded word).

When I woke up this morning with a pillow wet with tears, I was praying for you, with my face straining upward towards the heavens. I felt with you, unworthy and powerless. I experienced this awareness as a benediction on my head and hand, the marks in my flesh a vision in action, with all the desire to share it with you, as a satisfied parent's joy and gratification. Stay still in that need. He will answer you. Do not be provoked into proving yourself, but instead, wait on Him. When He told us to call ourselves unworthy servants, He left us no place to go but up, with no achievements to do but those done in Him.

At the very least, there is found the strength to endure, which is he joy of the Lord. Who, when gazing on His face, would not gladly grant Him anything? In the pain, reach out and touch Him. He is grace for us when we are weak. That grace removes the toxins from our very soul, while He remains within our sight. He changes the narrative, from what has been and is being taken from us, into what we have been privileged to give, to glorify and lift Him up, to partake of who He is, to yet be counted worthy to suffer for Him and for His Name!

Esteemed Torah Scholar, Mr Mordicai Kraft

It has been with exceedingly great delight that I discovered, and have been watching your Torah teaching videos. Your wonder for the Work of Divinity shows and I cannot help but feel the same. Deep calling unto deep, as it were.

Then I witnessed, with great alarm, you make a statement about Christianity to the effect of, "They have only one prophesy, and it has never come true." Here is demonstrated an appalling and willful ignorance of the subject matter! Do you understand that "Christianity" HAS NO PROPHESIES of it's own, whatsoever? Do you realize that the "New Testament" was written by JEWS? Paul of New Testament fame says it like this, "To the Jews are the revelations"! Jesus, himself, said, "Salvation is of the Jews."

I am telling you all this because Messiah shall reveal himself shortly. How will you have a king, unless you can obey him, and how can you obey him, unless you know him? Most of all, how can you know him, unless you have already loved him? (For you have yet to see his face.) How will you recognize the Sar Ha Panim (the face of divinity)?

It will be for the creating of your own jealousy if you refuse the words of a "christian"! Despite the fact that our family persecution was instigated by (Jewish) brethren, my own grandfather saw fit to die in Germany, at the hands of the nazis, while fighting in the US army! (And him from a sect that eschewed violence!)

Please listen to my warning, that far worse is coming to you, than that which my grandfather opposed. War must break out soon (as I am sure you are aware)! Shavuot will be the breaking point! The Lord will call the children, as ministers for Messiah, and He will defend them! Just before, there is a sign to be watching for. My person represents the Key of the house of David. Watch for this key to be lifted up with the chariots of my noble people, for this is the indication that the dominion has been returned to Israel. That is when the fighting starts!

Living the Song

If HE has made me free, then there is no reason to hide who I am, in Him! I am the key, of the line of David, given as a sign to my people (since they will not listen to the words of a woman!). The kingdom of heaven, and Machiach, will not take you by force, but by persuasions of the heart! You see, HE uses the low things, the humble things, of this world, to teach you His truths, to coax out and germinate the genuine expressions of zeal! It must be of HIM! The Shulimite is "black but comely" (Song of Solomon 1:5) because she is the lowest of the low, given all the drudge work, but what HE loves is her humility, which is so like His own! Her giving of herself is precious to Him. She refuses to cover the signs of her suffering, with a veil, like the prostitures who seek an easy life, pursuing His companions with their charms. (Song 1:7)

My mother's father was shot by the nazis in Germany, as he was fighting for the US army! His name was Victor. Indeed he was.

When Machiach did not arrive, along with the signs, I went into Jerusalem to seek Him. Oh, Jerusalem, when you understand, do not stir Him up before it is time! I wish I could ask for your prayer for me, for I am committed, but bewildered! My longing for Him brings me to sorrow because of the prolonging of the time our reunion!

The Meaning of Freedom

Is it really to do what you want? If we are honest, we realize that that is what we hope it means. In living life, freedom's meaning is found in process, where we gain understanding. Innocence has no clue, of what to do, with such an esoteric concept.

Before we've even started, our adversary would replace, for us, with pointless exploitative substitutes, this great gift. The devil incites us to remain ignorant of this viscerally, gratifying satisfaction for which our soul longs. Sin is the greatest robber there is.

It is only after we are taken into captivity that we realize what it is exactly,  that we do not want. From the lack comes the longing and the tears.  Freedom is something greater than this ugliness which rules us, resulting from the culmination of our desires worked out to their ends. Worshipping the flesh is abuse, not freedom. We arrived here when we were led astray by distraction, deception, and finally, disenfranchisement. So when our enslavement is removed, when our bindings are cut off, we realize what freedom is for.

First, He breaks our chains. We no longer answer to the rules of an abusive pagan system. We answer to HIM with grace, hope, and love. We see the dizzying width of the distance, between where we are in Him, and where we were, between where we have been and where we are going. Our desire to do what we want changes to desiring to do what frees and strengthens another to like privilege of position. There is joy without censure, this being like Him.

This is how God turns our ashes to beauty, and mourning into joy, turns the worst of possible circumstance into blessed celebration. Our hearts are free  by knowing HIM! Freedom is not given to us to be boring with the drugery of tasks to be done, or blind repetition. It is a clear eye, a keen mind, and a willful drive towards sacrificial involvement, an obvious, heartfelt appreciation of all that loves and is loved! Freedom is the implementing of the choice we make, NOW! We are free when we belong to Him, when we are lost in the unrivalled pleasure of His love and beauty. No chains can rebind me, no mind can confine me, filled as I am with Spirit of freedom!

A Prayer of Worship

This is THE king strong and mighty that has no equal. To Him alone belongs the pinnacle of power and glory. There is no one strong enough to resist Him. His rule is absolute. Death and destruction cannot overcome Him, yet He has overcome them. Now they serve Him, and in HIS hands, they are changed, turned inside out and upside down. He fashions such beauty from ashes, Resurrection and new life from death, and from pain comes knowledge and understanding, motivation to righteousness, deliverance, and ultimately, abiding peace and unspeakable joy!
There is no other time. There is no other place. There is nothing left for me to do at all. This is the forever part of heaven. You see, for love of You, I would attempt to climb any mountain, I would swim across any sea, I would take on any strenuous task. How very heavy, overwhelming, is the weight of Your glory and encompassing love! I am crushed under and abased, I am lifted up and exalted on high in accompaniment with Your spanning of the limits of existence. Your presence is a flood over me. No room left over for fear. I cannot remember my failures. There is no time to consider my sin. There is nothing more here, but the joy which is YOU, because You are everything to me. You, alone. You are worthy. Only You are enough! So, then, if Your worship is what I exist for, the breath of my body, am I too small or big to to suffer for You? Can I receive pain from You as a beloved gift, because of Your worthiness? How can I feel anything but honor and satisfaction in accepting what comes from You, Your beloved Hand? I am satisfied by YOU.
