This website is distinctly Messianic, comprising the Abrahamic expression of faith, which is to the Jew and the Gentile. We affirm the fullness of truth contained in the Bible, embracing the cross and identifying with the convocations of the Lord. 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 proclaim a kingdom vision. 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. Our slant is pre-trib! The Prophetic Scroll's aim is to glorify the living God.

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, all-important issues of prophecy relating to our day. Please study these things further yourself. Please search the scriptures to “see if these be true.” The Prophetic Scroll stands as a watchman in these exciting and dangerous days.

●New US sanctions and tariff rises on China, Russia, Turkey, the EU and some others have sent emerging markets into a tail-spin. Banking shares in Europe and emerging markets have plunged in a matter of days. Their currencies have crashed heavily, which causes rocketing inflation and slower growth. This all creates an immediate fall in confidence. These are the seeds of a new world economic crisis. Stock markets, currency markets and agricultural markets all work on a principle where the future expectation is built into the current price. Market pricing is all about perception of future value. So we do not have to wait for a new economic crisis to actually hit – it is already here, as I have explained. The all important issue is that the nations involved are all the nations of WW111 as revealed in Ezekiel 38&39. Israel, who is prospering agriculturally, will soon be in the cross-hairs! This lot can all go bang very quickly!

Shabbat (Sabbath) begins on Fridays at 6pm and ends on Saturdays at 6pm. 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.

10^th August 2018

Shabbat Shalom to all:

Suddenly!

There is very little time left!

I believe the tribulation period will begin on a Feast of Trumpets. There is a ton of evidence. If it is this one coming up next month, an enormous amount still has to fall into place. It could all happen very quickly. In fact the Bible hints at things lining up “suddenly” in numerous scriptures all over the Bible!

Is it possible that it won’t be this year? Yes of course it is, but unlikely. I think time is up!

Should we look at dates for the Lord’s coming? The answer is yes and no. We are to look at dates with expectancy. We should not set a date cast in stone, so to speak.

There are many great Bible teachers who have looked at dates and been right! They’ve been right because they have left the door open with a bit of leeway. Of course there are a great many others who discourage their flock by avoiding the subject all together.

Consider this scenario:

You live with your family of morons across the road from the railway station. You believe firmly in a pre-tribulation rapture of the church because you have studied it well. Your family goes to the church down the road led by Rev. Wolf. He doesn’t believe in any of this “end-time stuff” and not even the new birth.

You say to your family that you believe the train with the “Rapture” sign on front will be at the station at 10am. So you excuse yourself and run over to the station, while your family mocks you. At 10am the train does not come. You can now go back home and join your family sowing wild oats.

Or you can say to yourself: “Maybe the train is delayed and will be here at 10.15 or 10.30.” So you wait, and at 10.15 the train does not come, and as you look back across the road, like the wife of Lot, you see your family scoffing some more, as they drink themselves stupid.

So you stay where you are. And what’s this you hear at 10.30? It’s a train’s trumpet blast! And suddenly the train is here, picked you up and you are suddenly gone into the clouds, leaving a trail of smoke.

Suddenly, the world and its failed ministers will look for excuses or reasons. Many will say: “O thank God those crazy Christians have gone. It was a flock of UFO’s that took them.” You will say: “Thank you Lord, God of the universe, for exploding me out of the crazy world!”

Suddenly your family are shattered and instantly sober. Suddenly, they all repent, but reserve for themselves one last big sin. They go to the church down the road on Sunday and beat up Rev. Wolf, who of course is still there behind his pulpit.

lion-bible-hot-earth

Now your family are “tribulation saints,” and gentle Jesus has turned into the Lion of the tribe of Judah, full of wrath, confronting the wrath of Satan and of man.

You are now in heaven having the greatest of feasts unimaginable! They are going through the worst time known to man – ever. They rejected the blood of the Lamb, now their blood will be spilt. But at the end of the tribulation, you will see your family again, now they are one of the glorious families of the Millennium and not a family of morons anymore.

And who is this residing at number 8 Paradise Road? Let’s knock on the door. Why, it’s Rev. Wolf with no more black eyes, and a friendly, smiling, tail-wagging lion for a pet!

So, is it better to go to the station and wait with great expectation, or to go to the tribulation with two black eyes and then have your head cut off?

This story may have a tinge of humour to it, but it is deadly serious!

The atomic second the rapture train leaves the station it will produce worldwide shock and awe, fear and regret. Israel will be the recipients of the great shock! They thought they were God’s chosen and could do nothing wrong! Well, they are still God’s chosen but now they will suddenly repent in the fear of the Lord! They thought they could continue in their wickedness without judgement.

Jeremiah 8:6-11 “They do not speak aright. No man repented of his wickedness, saying what have I done? Everyone trusted in his own ways...Even the stork knows her appointed times, but My people do not know the judgement of the Lord.”

Deuteronomy 10:12 “Now, Israel, what does the Lord God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and to love Him, to serve the Lord with all your heart and soul.”

I think just after the rapture there will be long lines of people waiting at the train station, all in vain! Alas – too late, but not too late to make it to the Millennium!

Don’t be a moron; you won’t be able to run fast enough to catch the train that suddenly arrived and left without you. Be ready now.

† Shalom...Joel.

Edition 388: October 24^th 2017.

A New Prophetic Dawn:

door-open-dawn

Introduction:

I have sat in the desert so many times and watched the dawn break. A beautiful, ethereal, tobacco-orange glow envelops everything. A stunning silence shouts from the four corners as the stars slowly evaporate. Now, desert insects and birds begin to awake, beautifully breaking the sublime quiet. The laugh of a hyena ending his night-prowl reverberates; the lone cry of a jackal pierces the serenity.

Luke 1:79 “The Dayspring from on high has visited us, to give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.”

A dawn of glory, a dawn of hell on earth! The door to both is opening even now.

Job12:22-25 “He uncovers deep things out of darkness, and brings the shadow of death to light. He makes nations great and destroys them; He enlarges nations and guides them. He takes away the understanding of the chiefs of the people of the earth and makes them wander in the pathless wilderness. They grope in the dark without light, and He makes them stagger like a drunken man.”

Isaiah 24:20 “The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall totter like a hut; its transgression shall be heavy upon it, and it will fall and not rise again.”

In this edition, amongst a few other things, I want to contrast the call of The Prophetic Scroll and that of the world’s mass media in the days ahead.

The call of the Prophetic Scroll:

As we move into what may be the final year of the church age and the start of the tribulation period, there is so much that is about to break forth. This year, the Hebrew year 5778 may be it, or it may not. We will know as we move forward!

My call is firstly to know my Lord. It is to hear and reflect His voice and word. Secondly, it is to make Him known and relate His will, word and ways to our situation today and into the future. I have followed our Lord for over 40 years without ever backsliding.

In coming editions, I will share with you what signs to look for, what signs not to bother about, what to throw out, and how to stay safe and secure from the coming massive deceptions.

In spite of much attack and criticism, I will continue to scorn error, and write, led by our Lord with passion, truth, prophetic vision, anger and mercy, with many revelations thrown in here and there.

My aim is to see you dipped in heaven and to grow well and exactly, in our great God and Lord.

The Prophetic Scroll and the coming of the Lord:

If the next of the Feasts of the Lord to be fulfilled prophetically, is Trumpets, and if this feast marks the start of the tribulation that would mean that the rapture would take place then. The next Feast of Trumpets is on September 10^th 2018.

That would mean that a lot of things need to occur beforehand. If they do not, forget about 2018. If they do, we’ve got it.

For me personally, this is the most likely scenario, as I have said numerous times. Is this the word of the Lord now for September 10^th? No it is not! At this stage it is a presumed scenario. If it is going to be the real deal, you can be pretty sure that our Lord will speak and reveal these things as we get near.

Isaiah 18:3 “All inhabitants of the world and dwellers on the earth; when He lifts up a banner on the mountains, you see it; and when He blows a trumpet, you hear it.”

The verse above implies that our Lord will lift the banner for all to see and blow the trumpet for all to hear at the appropriate time.

Again, I give you my word that The Prophetic Scroll will be an appropriate “banner” and “trumpet”.

The verse below is profound indeed. It is and will be one of the main motivations of The Prophetic Scroll as we go forward into these severe times, especially relating to Israel:

Psalm 126:1-3 “When the Lord brought back the captivity of Zion, we were like those who dream...Then they (godly media) said among the nations, ‘The Lord has done great things for us, whereof we are glad.”

I and The Prophetic Scroll will stand with and for God’s word, plans, and way for Israel, Jerusalem and the Jews. This ministry will stand ferociously against those in all forms of replacement theology and anti-Semitism as things gear up for the final confrontation.

The call of the media:

They do not even know that they are puppets on a devil-string. What they believe and proclaim is the will and word of the god of the world – Satan, disguised, of course.

The entire mass-media is run by “ghost writers!” They are writers and presenters, driven by the living ghosts of Satan. They are Satan’s scribes and his will they do.

The mass-media will become more supernaturally charged with spirits of deception, presenting a fallacy and a giant distortion and lie that they are the ones who see the truth. Their new world of godless peace is a “paradise”, named hell.

You see, you can’t de-satanise the world! You must “come out of it and be separate” and “die to it”.

God’s new world of purity and holiness will be their great enemy, which they will try to destroy before it arrives. The mass-media are your worst enemy. I’m not talking about simple news coverage, but all opinion segments.

The mass-media will mismanage the lives of the masses, poisoning them with flawed hope of a great paradise. What will come is a fool’s paradise, a demon-filled, grim, gloomy, fiery “fairyland”.

The media will aim at the gullible, who will be tempted, tricked, trapped and trampled into the devil’s darkness.

The coming days will be a sensational, suspenseful tear-jerker, a spine-tingling thriller.

Personally, I’ve seen the media become more and more evil and dangerous in the last year or so.

Here are some psychological terms to bear in mind. They give a powerful understanding of the forces at work:

●Availability heuristic: If something can be recalled it must be important. It’s a mental shortcut relying on immediacy of information, especially in the media. The more times the topic has been in your face, the more important it must be. Frequency is important, not content or truth. The frequency and availability of information gives it value.

●Naive realism is the psychological term for the human tendency to believe that what they see and hear is real and true and must take precedence, because it is they who discerned it, and they are all-important. Those who disagree with them are branded irrational, biased or heretics and scoffers. Naive realism entrenches systematic error based on false, majority-consensus. They believe that they are the only really objective ones.

●Blind-spot bias: Simply, this is failure to see the impact of their own error and judgment, while seeing only their own view through tunnel vision. It often leads to other biases and problems of understanding.

●Band-wagon theology: This is the belief that if a selective group believes one thing, no matter how true or false it may be, it is right because there is a large, selective, identifiable group all going the same direction.

Please, also bear in mind the following important phrases:

Group speak, crowd psychology, confirmation bias. These are all terms for the collective thought and action of a crowd.

I have two words, for what those in the above psycho-categories believe: Hogwash, hogwash!

At the end of the day, the mass-media must proclaim their god! They must declare that there is only one god, the one whom they worship and don’t even know it. He is the god of universality, on the wide road of acceptance of everything. He is a multi-god with multi-values. He is the mixture-god of assimilation of all things.

This is the god of this world – Satan.

He is both good and evil, but he has one huge characteristic – he has no cross!

The media is the agent which releases the world from all biblical and spiritual influence. This results in a quick reversion of society to its basest evil, elements.

The great divide is widening. God’s will and plans for Israel are part of that great divide.

The final revival:

Out of a new revival in the hearts of many believers will flow revival to the masses.

Out of the dust and smoke, a new dimension of the Spirit of God will arise. The life-giving glory, majesty, splendour, and magnificence of our risen Lord will fill the temple like never before.

You, my friends, are that temple! Be prepared for a new, wonderful work of God about to break forth in the churches, in the nations, and in His people – Jew and Gentile.

Be ready to disclose and declare the saving power of our Lord through the cross of Calvary to the masses who, will awaken spiritually and come looking for salvation.

Be ready for a new wave of spiritual blockheads, birdbrains, muttonheads, lamebrains, morons, kooks and crackpots to flood the world with their garbage, at the same time.

We will see a worldwide outpouring of mass deception through Satan’s agent; his puppet-wolves in many pulpits.

The Spirit of the living God will move in this outpouring of the “early rain” and “latter rain” together. A new world revival is about to break out.

Discipled by the Internet:

Obviously this does not apply to everything on the net, but it most certainly does apply to a lot.

There are some great advantages in using the internet for ministry. But there are also many inherent flaws to be aware of. In many respects it is just like a visual telephone line, but that in itself, has problems. There is no better method of reaching far and wide with the gospel, right around the world in an instant.

Some problems are:

●It is impersonal. A digital person is just not the same as the real deal!

●With many ministries, particularly on YouTube there is no accountability.

●With many, there is no way of throwing some people out of the digital church. Some of these ministries are self-proclaimed and self-appointed. Some of them are run by people who are as spiritually ignorant as a squashed flea. Too many are inexperienced spiritually, and disqualified.

●The spread and dissemination of error, deception and delusion is streamlined and instant.

●It is a cesspool for Satan’s disguised disciples.

Great shakings to come soon:

There is power in great shaking. When you are asleep and someone comes and shakes you with shouting and yelling, you wake up fast. Well, in the same way the great shaking that is about to engulf the world, will shake many into repentance. Many sleeping Christians and churches will be shaken awake.

Of course it’s the Spirit of God that does the eye-opening, but his agent in times to come will be a great shaking of everything that can be shaken, (which excludes the kingdom of God!) Some of the shaking will be God’s doing, some will be natural events gone crazy and some pure satanic.

When things start shaking, people clamour for stability, and something solid to hold onto.

This great shaking soon to come will be far worse than the world has ever seen! It will produce fear, stress, and panic. Butterflies in the stomach will turn to vultures! Terror and horror will be the name of the nightmare!

Many, in a great shaking will harden their hearts, like true psychopaths. They will go on in non-repentance and turn away from God and His truth. Eventually they will turn on God.

Great shaking causes people to want to stand together. It causes an instant dropping of divisions. It causes unity. It causes a grasping for truth. It is a powerful cause of belief.

This will occur in supercharged form in the tribulation period, but we, the church, will see forerunners of it all, before the pre-tribulation rapture.

Here, in the following two verses we see the great shaking in the tribulation as the Second Coming approaches. Note in this verse below, we also see clearly what the Revelation 12 sign is!!

Joel 3:14-16 “Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will diminish their brightness. The Lord will roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem; the heavens and the earth will shake...”

Isaiah 13:13 “I will shake the heavens and the earth which will move out of its place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts and in the day of His fierce anger.”

There is little doubt that we will see numerous wars intensify and new ones break out very soon. But the big sign is Israel. There has been little of prophetic importance coming from Israel in the last few months or so. I expect this to change dramatically.

Israel will be thrust onto centre-stage very soon. We are not to jump the gun. We are to wait and watch. I have seen lately that some Christians can’t wait and are going to fortune tellers, clairvoyants and the like to find the time of His coming! (Much more on that in the next edition.)

Imagine the shock of one day arriving in heaven and seeing that your problem was that you were living under a curse and that it’s cure, the cross, was right in front of you all the time. Imagine the shock of seeing the spectacular rewards that were laid up for you – for eternity, disappear in a puff of smoke! All because you ran to the cursed occult!

Can you be saved if you go to a fortune-teller? Perhaps yes, but once you do, you have stepped onto a slippery slope that will curse you even as you try to break free from its python-grip!

Psalm 130:6 “My soul waits for the Lord, more than those who watch for the morning – I say more than those who watch for the morning.”

Frustration is a huge secret problem for most Christians. It causes people to jump the gun. Anger, resentment, rejection and many addictions come from frustration.

A friend of mine, known as the “Lion Whisperer”, has numerous lions and other wild animals on his game reserve not far from where I live. Someone did a documentary on him some years ago entitled “Dangerous Companions.”

Many believers have far too many dangerous companions in their lives, who will do them a lot more harm than a lion bite!

It’s very important to be selective in whom you ‘receive from' in these days! Be discerning my friends.

One classical “dangerous companion” you must not have as any part of your life or Christian experience in any form, is anything to do with Nibiru.

There are many shocking, largely unknown things about this great deception, still to be revealed. I will be sharing some amazing things on this front soon. (Next edition, God willing.)

Truth will walk with error for a while and try to persuade it, but at the end of the day truth will crush and annihilate all error. Keep truth in your heart and expel all error – now.

The eyes of our Lord:

Our Lord will soon look deeply into your eyes – face to face, with His all seeing and all knowing eyes. If you look into His eyes, you will see a furnace of golden flaming fire. His eyes will see you through the blood-stains of Calvary’s cross.

His voice will sound like many refreshing waterfalls, but emerging from the water will be a sharp two-edged sword. His countenance will glow like the sun shining in its strength. His feet are of bronze – judgement! His eyes look into your eyes and He sees His blood in you and He proclaims you perfect, holy and pure – forever!

All you can do is fall at His feet as dead!

Our Messiah is God in the flesh. He is the very essence, origin and definition of wisdom. He is love, mercy and forgiveness personified, yet a severe judge. He is distant, yet very close. He is transcendent, everywhere, yet far away.

He destroys wonderfully, and builds up magnificently, with a true, pure plum-line. He is all power. He is full of light, insight and ingenuity.

He is the essence of eternal beauty, glory, majesty and desire. One glance from His fire-filled eyes and you are healed, new and full of life. His great spiritual beauty attracts, inspires, and causes desire and emulation.

Those eyes will look into the eyes of every unbeliever and all who rejected Him. Those eyes will look, with unquenchable fire into the proud eyes of all – the fully unforgiven, who would not fall down before Him. What eternal terror! If He does not see His own blood in you, you are none of His – forever doomed!

Revelation 20:15 “Anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.”

Your name written in His Book is God’s hell-fire extinguisher!

Revelation 21:5 “He who sat on the throne said, ‘Behold, I make all things new...”

There will be no more curse, no more sickness, no more sorrow, no more pain, no more tears and no more death – for those that are His.

Do you see the sin-burning fire in His eyes? Does He see your eyes, bloodshot, with His blood? Do you hear His roaring, loving voice? Do you see His bronze, judgement-feet thundering towards you to proclaim you innocent?

Revelation 22:4 “They shall see His face, and His name shall be upon their foreheads.”

Finally

Learn to wait! And while waiting, get rid of your “dangerous companions.”

How can you stand against error and deception when you think it is right and the truth is wrong? How can you watch and pray, when you don’t know what to watch for and what not to? How can you stand securely and endure when you can’t see stability standing right in front of you?

Mt friends, these are dangerous days indeed and a time like never was. It is the time to know your God deeply, well, thoroughly, and a time to know His word under the leading of the Spirit of God.

Welcome to the tail end of this great, glory-journey and pilgrimage, my friends!

I took this picture in the beautiful Namib Desert – over 1000kms of spectacular landscapes. The Namib Desert with its Skeleton Coast, the Kaokerland Desert with rare big-foot desert elephants, the Kalahari Desert with its huge black-maned lions, the Makgadigadi Desert of Botswana, the Great Karoo and Namaqualand Desert of South Africa – these are some of my favourite places. (In the days when I was still mobile!)
