Edition 100

This website is distinctly Messianic, comprising the Abrahamic expression of faith, which is to the Jew and the Gentile with a Hebraic character. We affirm the fullness of absolute truth contained in the Bible, embracing the cross and identifying with the convocations of the Lord as seen in the Feasts, the Sabbath and Passover. We reject the legalism of many in the Messianic movement. We reject the Babylonian Pagan traditions of the church. We consider all people Jews and Gentiles and those in all churches who are truly born of the Spirit of the living God to be one family. We reject institutional organised denominationalism (division). We foresee a great falling away of much of the church in these days, while at the same time a great restoration of part of the church. We affirm and identify with God's plan and call to the Jewish people in these days and will support and stand with them as future brothers and sisters. We stand happily with pre / mid/ and post tribbers. Our slant is cautiously pre-trib, but hey, post tribber...you're still family! Today much error has been added to Christendom and much truth has been removed. The Prophetic Scroll's aim is to deal with these issues and assist you on your road to glory.

I was saved in 1976 and became extremely interested in Bible prophecy, being an ex war-correspondent and photographer. My calling and aim is to share the dramatic and all-important issues of prophecy relating to our day. This is a calling to unfold and share the wisdom of God as contained in His word. There is also much teaching in these pages for your heart. It’s not all prophecy! Please study these things further yourself and understand that the format is non-exhaustive. Please search the scriptures to “see if these be true.” This is a "watchman" and Bible prophecy teaching website.

The purpose is to help the church and Israel become reconciled in Messiah and to identify the rift, and the needed restoration. There is much in the church that needs to change before it can be fully reconciled with the Jew. Likewise, changes in Jewish thinking are also needed.

23^rd June 2017

Shabbat Shalom to all:

The deception debacle:

1 Timothy 4:1 “The Spirit expressly says that in the latter times, some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons...having their conscience seared.”

In the last week alone, I’ve had some incredible dealings with some of the most shocking deceptions ever – all in one week! Some of them are popular beliefs which are spreading.

●There is a growing group of insane Christians who believe that the earth is flat.

●There are a growing number within the Messianic community who believe that Yeshua / Jesus is the antichrist.

●There is a growing group of insane Christians, who believe the Nibiru deception. They have re-appeared after being in the background for a while.

Christian Flat earthers think it’s their basic rights to believe the earth is flat. Not in my presence they don’t! They must repent fast or get totally out of my life in all ways in an instant. The problem with them is, not only do they believe in a flat earth, but mock and come against us who believe that the earth is a sphere. I tell you – some people need to be smacked right off their feet!

The big problem with flat earthers is that they make a mockery of the gospel and Christians. You do not have a right as a believer to believe what you like.

Jesus is the antichrist. This is an infuriating deception going around. The story is: This group within the Messianic community believe that we must come under the law (Torah). In the Bible, these were the Judaisers and sought to kill our Lord because He did not obey their law their way. For them the law has become sacrosanct and equals salvation.

No one who mixes law and works with faith and grace is of God. It always produces legalism (which is as witchcraft) and deception.

Yeshua offers salvation without keeping a string of legalistically imposed laws. So, in their eyes, He has replaced the law and is therefore the antichrist! What cursed blasphemy and deception. To further explain their cursed heresy, they believe that Yeshua was a good man but not God in the flesh!

If you want more on this subject, see the link on the right hand side headed “Salvation” and the section, “Under the law or not” in the “Teachings” button at the top.

The Nibiru deception, a brief explanation (again): They believe that this mysterious, nowhere to be found planet will suddenly appear and strike the earth. Amazingly, they know this without knowing where the planet is, what its speed or trajectory is. So if they know that it will hit the earth, they must have outside sources of information, apart from science, and astronomy and mathematics.

And they do! If you look it up you’ll see the source is pure witchcraft – Satan himself. The story is that this planet visited the earth long ago, offloaded a group of beings, who became the human race, and is now about to re-appear and hit the earth.

Many occultists are involved in all of this. I think the most insane thing I saw, was from a pure Jezebel with a YouTube ministry who predicted that Nibiru would hit the earth this last Christmas day, but that it would be okay because the rapture would happen just before on that day.

Interestingly, she has not repented, nor apologised and still puts out bucket loads of cow dung! She is a modern false prophet – to be avoided at all costs.

Yes, the Bible speaks of meteors and asteroids hitting the earth, but well into the tribulation period and they are not called Nibiru!

Many people can’t see their own deception, because they don’t want to. They believe their lie.

Here are a few shocking verses:

1 Corinthians 11:19 “There must (will be) factions among you, that those who are approved (genuine) may be recognised (identified) among you.”

2 Timothy 3:13-14 (Amp) “Evil men and imposters will grow worse and worse, deceiving and leading astray others, being deceived and led astray themselves. But as for you continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them...”

And another shocker:

Matthew 18:7 “Woe to the world because of offences! Offences must come, but woe to the one by whom the offences come!”

The word “offences” here is Strong’s G4625, “Skandelon”, meaning: Trap in sin, snare or stumbling block.

truth-error-words

Curses at work:

A person prone to deception is generally under a curse. That doesn’t mean every bit of error or minor, temporary deception is a result of a curse. I’m referring to people who constantly fall into deception. They are attracted to it like a magnet.

False doctrine and deception go hand in hand, feeding off cursed sources.

There is always a domino effect with false doctrines. They knock-on and affect other doctrines.

People under a curse generally can’t or won’t take correction. They attack you when you try to correct them. They attack the hand the feeds them help.

Galatians 4:16 “Have I now become your enemy because I bring you the truth,”

Defending deception makes you one with it. You must flee from it – absolutely. Otherwise it will get worse and more deeply entrenched, because that’s the way a curse works.

Here are some of the evidences of a curse at work in a believer’s life:

●They are prone to deception and false doctrine and the inability to see it. ●They are unstable and lack of endurance. ●They have recurring mental or physical sickness. ●They have a regular breakdown in relationships. ●They consistently fail in employment, finances and provisions. ●They suffer from depression, stress and torment. ●They participate in the occult. ●They are involved with idolatry and have idols in their home ●They are involved with various forms of witchcraft, divination, and fortune-telling...And much more!

A person under a curse will often think he is a perpetual victim and that everyone is always against him trying to obstruct him, when in reality it’s the individual himself who is to blame.

Proverbs 28:1 “The wicked flee when no one pursues.”

Here is a very powerful, simple, but enormous truth: If you want to find our Lord, and be safe from deception, believe first! You must believe then you will see. If you come looking for truth within a huge pile of other “truths” and errors – you will never find the truth. You will forever be half-baked. Set your heart and mind to believe the truth as you come looking for it.

For example: 2+2=4. If you set your heart to believe that the answer is truth even before you find it, you will find it. If you believe that 2+2 may =4 or 5 or 7. You will always be a doubter.

Hebrews 11:6 “Without faith it is impossible to please God, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”

The original words of the verse below are wonderfully insightful! “Inclining the ear” means to bow down to the source of the sound, so you hear it clearly! There is action involved. It’s like cupping your hand on your ear, so you can hear clearly.

If you bow your ear and your head and your heart to our Lord’s voice, exclusively – you will hear!

Proverbs 22:17-18 “Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise, and apply your heart to my knowledge; for it is a pleasant thing if you keep them fixed upon your lips, so that your trust may be upon the Lord...”

Shalom † Joel.

The tragedy of a failed church.

Of course God doesn't fail and the "gates of hell will not prevail" over what He has and is building. The message to the church of Philadelphia in the Revelation of Jesus Christ is a picture of glorious success and victory, but that's only one small section of the church.

If you read God's own assessment of the church in chapters two and three of the Revelation, you be shocked!

Of course all those who are born of the Spirit of the living God in all churches are His family. He only has one body, not many. But we also need to look deeply into the scriptures and heed the many warnings of impending doom for a large part of the church.

One of the big reasons why the true church of the living God will forever be hated by the false church, and the world for that matter is because it forever stands exclusive, separate and holy unto God. It will never assimilate and merge with the multi-faith movement. There is an impassable gulf (Luke 16:26) between heaven and hell, the saved and the unsaved The cross of our Lord is the great divider.

The reason why the antichrist will be accepted with open arms is because he comes making peace, offering love acceptance, coexistence and tolerance of all religions. If all religions are equally valid, then the cross of Christ and shed blood of our Messiah was meaningless!

coexist_3n

2 Corinthians 6:15-16 "What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever ? and what agreement has the temple of God with idols, for you are the temple of the living God."

You see, the world has elevated democracy to such a high level that the church has simply adopted it into the realm of religion as well. Because the majority thinks all religions are equally valid does not make it so. Of course we respect the people of other religions, but that's a different thing.

The great tragedy is that the world together with a great multi-faith religious movement will welcome the antichrist onto the world stage and give themselves to him. But if you think he will uphold true democratic values, have a look at these verses showing that he will quickly introduce a system of domination and control:

Isaiah 10:14 "By the strength of my hand (antichrist) I have done it, and by my wisdom for I am prudent; I have removed the boundaries of the people, and have robbed their treasuries...My hand has found like a nest the riches of the people, as one gathers eggs that are left. I have gathered all the earth; and there was no one who moved his wing, nor opened his mouth with even a peep."

Revelation 13:17 "He caused all both small and great, rich and poor, slave and free to receive a mark...and that no one may buy or sell except the one who has the mark..."

Rather than universalism, equity, democratic values and equality of all faiths, the antichrist will form a massive system of world control and domination, perhaps even worse than Marxist /Leninism. The nations of the world will be fooled by this "christ" and run to give their nations over to his control.

The multi-faith church will spearhead Satan's plan to control the world, but those who are truly born of the Spirit of God and are following Him, will see red lights flashing and separate themselves.

Yeshua / Jesus says "If you're not with Me and for Me you're against Me. (Matthew 12:30)

You cannot serve two masters. (Luke 16:13) You will love one and hate the other.

Note this very important issue in this amazing verse below. People can and will pretend to be true believers. They know all the right words and sayings, but their hearts are wrong.

Psalm 81:15 "The haters of the Lord would pretend submission to Him, but their fate would endure forever."

The Bible itself is God's handbook and instruction manual on how the church should be run.

1Corinthians 1:10 "Now I plead with brethren by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and same judgement." Verse 13 "Is Christ divided?"

Amos 3:3 "How can two walk together lest they be agreed". Disunity in the church is the largest cause of its failure.

One of the great tragedies of the failed church is that it is deaf to God's warnings!

Truth unites all those that love it, but truth in this modern day and age offends many people.

The truth is designed to offend. It offends the pride of life, so that it can be dealt with.

1 Peter 2:7-8 "The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone, a stone of stumbling and a rock of offence."

Truth shows how helpless you are in and of your own self effort. Truth illuminates Satan in the world and his host of demons. Truth shows that you need the cross of Christ. So what does the church do? It removes the offence. Galatians 5:11...The offence of the cross..."

I've said many times, it's very easy to spot the counterfeit. He has no cross, nor the marks of the cross on his daily life!

If you remove the cross and its effects on your life, you will easily fit in with the world and its traditions, religions, entertainment, and its ways. You will soon become accepted as one of them. You won't even see who's really pulling the strings in the background.

Luke 6:26 "Woe to you when all men speak well of you."

Proverbs 21:27 "The sacrifice (works) of the wicked is an abomination".

2John 1:6 "This is love, that we walk according to His commandments (truth / word)". What a staggering verse! How amazing is that? You know how many times people come up with, "that's not love". I don't know how many times I've been accused of not walking in love because I won't join my Christian friends worshipping the great Satanic god Hollywood! Well, here's one of the great definitions of what it means to walk in love! To walk in love is to walk in truth!!!!

Joshua 24:14-15 "Now therefore fear the Lord and serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods that your fathers served...Serve the Lord."

An easy way to get rid of counterfeits and troublemakers in the church is simply to preach the true gospel of offense. Preach Christ and Him crucified. Preach the need to take up your cross daily. They will quickly leave. Who is left behind is who you can really walk with on our journey.

scrollcross2

The way of the truth is narrow...not wide all encompassing and universal. (John 14:6) The way of the modern church is all accommodating...destined for the wide open arms of the antichrist and an eternal hell.

There is only one narrow road to heaven, but millions of wide open roads to hell. (and Rome of course)

The entirety of the work of God with man starting in Eden all culminates in the cross of Calvary. It is the cross that is the great divider. It is the ongoing work and power of the cross that gives true insight, understanding and power to live a successful life God's way!

The way of God is this. Take up your cross daily and follow our Lord (Matthew 16:24)

"The message of the cross is foolishness to them that are perishing". So they remove it and become "enemies of the cross of Christ." (1 Corinthians 1:18) You can easily remove the cross, but you can't remove "the perishing" as a result!

Luke 11:35 "Beware that the light that is in you is not really darkness". Many preachers today preach Jesus in the church, but it's another Jesus! It's a jolly Santa Clause Jesus

If you set off on a very important one way once-in-a-lifetime very long journey, wouldn't you like to know that you're on the right road? Too many today are blind sheep, following their leaders in hope that he knows where he is going.

John 4:24 "Those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth."

Mark 7:7 "This people honours Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. In vain they worship Me teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."

Oh Europe your eternal doom is before you!

►Here is an absolutely shocking, revolting, sickening program broadcast on BBC a few weeks ago on the state of the church in Europe, the new dark continent. (There's a video clip of some of the program on this website as well, just click play.) As I watched the full program on BBC, I could continuously almost hear the future screams from hell of the people and counterfeit ministers in the program.

This is all about atheists in the pulpit: (click the link below)

The church in Europe today

This program is shocking indeed, but it is all prophesied in the scriptures.

Here is another shocking bit of news on the state of the modern church. This link will take you to a story on the move from Christian Zionism to Christian Palestinianism.

The assault on Christian Zionism

The move away from God's plans for Israel, the Jews and Jerusalem is really speeding up. The Methodist, Presbyterian, Lutheran and many others are at the forefront.

A very easy way to get rid of all the confusion and to allow atheists in the pulpit, and to basically allow anyone to have their own democratic voice in the church is simply to say "Don't judge"

Those who say don't judge, have only one motivation and that is to allow evil and sin to flourish. Imagine saying to a judge "Don't judge." The Bible does not say "don't judge" It says "don't judge after the flesh"

(Please have a look at Edition 14 tilted "To judge or not to judge")

The truth is being cast down.

Isaiah 59:14 "...Righteousness stands afar off for truth is fallen in the street."

We are heading fast into a world of tremendous evil. The truth has been "cast down in the street" The cross is being removed more and more so that evil can flourish.

The church has failed in its responsibility to restrain evil.

Is your church teaching truth and growing in holiness and the fear of the Lord, or is it acceptable to the world?

We are to grow in the fear of the Lord and not the fear of the church fathers, reformers and the like.

Beware: Matthew 24:12 "Because lawlessness shall abound the love of many will grow cold."

Jeremiah 5:31 "The prophets prophecy falsely, and the priests rule by their own power; and My people love to have it so."

2 Corinthians 10:12 "We dare not compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they measuring themselves by themselves and comparing themselves among themselves are not wise."

Matthew 6:23 "If your (spiritual) eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is really darkness, how great is that darkness.!"

Isaiah 5:20 "Woe to those who call evil good and good evil; who put darkness for light and light for darkness."

The word 'contaminate' means to mix with the impure and unclean. That's the state of much of the modern church!

Deuteronomy 12:29-32 "When the Lord God cuts off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, you shall displace them and dwell in their land, take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them...and that you do not inquire after their gods saying "How did these nations serve their gods? I also will do likewise. You shall not worship the Lord your God in that way...whatever I command you, be careful to observe it; you shall not add to it nor take away from it."

Leviticus 18:30 "Therefore you shall keep My commandments, so that you do not commit any of these abominable customs (traditions)"

Truth is not variable, it's absolute.

The old ways

bibleholyold

The old ways are the new ways for many who've left the old ways and gone of astray. The old ways are the new ways for many who want to liven up and invigorate their spiritual lives. Isn't it amazing that here we are in 2011 talking about how radical the 2000 year-old Bible is. You see, the major issues of life don't change or get old and out of date. Life and it's principles are eternal. "The word of God is life"

Jeremiah 6:16 "Stand in the ways and see and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; then you will find rest for your souls..."

We have an immensely important and enormous responsibility to God to the unsaved, to saved and to Israel. We dare not interfere with the truth and make it relevant to a fallen world

●The truth may hurt but lies will comfort you on your journey to hell. A classical example of this was the work of mother Theresa. Her philosophy was to comfort people of other faiths, dying in her hospice, without even attempting to convert them.

Finally.

There are many churches who are led by mature men who know our Lord and His word. They are doing their job very well. They are able to see the attack of the enemy and defend themselves and their flock. They are well able to lead many people into all truth. They are becoming the minority.

It's a real blessing and privilege to know our Messiah, to follow Him and His ways. In this day that will make you a minority and a complete oddball, but it will make you a friend of the living God.

In closing you might like to (please do) watch / listen to this clip by Grace Williams tilted "Hide me now." it's a beautiful piece of music.

Hide me now Grace Williams

a_deadseajalidwise2

Psalm 118:19 "Open to me the gates of righteousness; I will g through them, and I will praise the Lord. This is the gate of the Lord, through which the righteous shall enter."

Psalm 119:1-2 "Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord! Blessed are those who keep His testimonies , who seek Him with a whole heart."

Heaven or hell:

Young woman you had better be worried if you have not accepted the finished work of the cross of Calvary. You friends may tell you that there are many ways to be saved. They may tell you that God would not send anyone to hell. They are wrong. Now while you are alive you can change your mind, not afterwards!

worry

The way of our Lord is the way to glorious victory now and in time to come. It really is a celebration. Oddly, submitting to God is the way to real liberty and freedom.
