���������� THUNDER OVER THE HORIZON
���� Over the summer, the situation in the former Yugoslavia has worsened as the Serbs have been intensifying their military actions against the Bosnian Moslems. The "Special Office Brief" for mid-July stated: "The next three months will be critical. If no peace settlement is reached, Russia will supply fully the military needs of the Serbs and the U.S. will supply the Moslems after a withdrawal of the U.N. forces. The U.S. will be at odds with Russia and vice versa. The Israelis' will become highly critical of the U.S. because of its support of the Moslems. Egypt will become more critical of Israel. Russia will attempt to appease Islam by even greater concessions to Iran and will also, of course, upstage that appeasement by greater hostility to Israel."
���� Thus "Special Office Brief" portrays a chain reaction of events, all of which are centered in the issues now being played out in the former Yugoslavia (also called the Balkans region). Since that time in mid-August, the situation again turned more complex as Croatia invaded territory now held by Serbs forcing them to withdraw.
���� The Balkan War of 1910 to 1912 was a precursor to World War I, as each of the major nations backed a particular faction in that region. The "Special Office Brief" for January 14, 1995 made the following observations which the American public does not seem to hear on its network news programs: "The Bosnian Serbs had the unequivocal support of all Western Liberals before 1914 and between 1914 and 1918. They had it again during the Second World War in particular against the Croats who were enthusiastic Nazis. Suddenly in 1992 the Bosnian Serbs lost favor with Western Liberals who discovered a passion for Moslems and Croats. Quite why no one knows. This Office advises it to be dangerous to take sides. It could easily lead to a third World War just as intervention of Russia in 1914 led to the first and that to the second. If you are minded for such risk, that is the road towards it. The result would probably be extermination of all concerned and the survival of none. No conceivable Atlantic Power strategic interest is involved in the Balkans and no humanitarian cause is served by feeding the parties in conflict. It merely prolongs it. Incidentally, certain interests make a good deal of money out of so-called humanitarian exercises. It is highly profitable business."
���� On June 28, 1914, the Archduke of Austria was assassinated in Sarajevo. That event is said to have triggered a series of ultimatums and alliances that eventually led to Great Britain entering World War I on August 5, 1914. But those of us who have studied history knows that World War One was planned many years prior to 1914 by the International Jewish Bankers so as to bring Russia under the control of the International Zionists.
���� Chronologically both of the above dates have prophetic importance. June 28, 1914 was exactly 1,260 days (the number of tribulation) prior to the liberation of Jerusalem by British forces on December 9, 1917.
���� We, therefore, find it amazing that Sarajevo, a city out of the news for so many years (though it did host the Olympics in 1984), should suddenly become the center of international attention.
���� On June 28, 1991 when this civil war broke out, Americans have been shown numerous news reports from Bosnia showing the intense suffering of the civilian population in the wake of Serbian artillery bombardment. We see people with no electricity, no running water, little food and scant medical care. But most of all, there are the faces of people whose lives have become a living nightmare with no end (except death) in sight.
���� But the American people have not been told why the U.N. became interested in this fight instead of many of the others going on around the world at the present time. The reason the U.N. became involved is because THE JEWS WERE THE FIRST TO BE RUN OUT IN THE SO-CALLED ETHNIC CLEANSING! This, of course, is a no no in the eyes of the International Jewish Bankers who are the ultimate winners in all wars.
���� Of course, we in America need simply flip the channel or turn off the TV to escape the problem. One also wonders if those in the media and in government, who decry the inhumanity and senseless killing in Bosnia, really do give much thought to it all after the cameras are turned off. We are not saying that America should be expected to solve the problems in Bosnia; but we should be aware that this conflict is a warning to this country, as well as to the world in general Thunder usually indicates the coming of a storm. It is a sound warning.
���� During the Korean Police Action, 1950-53, a new word was introduced to the English language. It was "brainwashing." Our enemies in Red China had a more descriptive term for it, they call it "thought control." They introduced it to their people through a science called "Psychopolitics," which is the "art of controlling the thinking of an entire body of people, so that they will obey you without question."
���� Some Christians immediately become "touchy" when we say "White Christian Civilization," as though we meant that salvation does not apply to all. This is not our meaning! But if you are honest, you will have to admit, that only the White Nations have openly responded to the Gospel message. Colored nations have only been reached at great expense, effort and often danger.
���� For many centuries the West was Christendom and its White Civilization was indubitably Christian: that, whether you like it or not, is an historical fact.
���� Only the White nations have founded their constitutions on God's Word; in them alone, is a day set aside for the worship of our God, and the rest of the body. A well-known atheist once said: "The strength of England can be found in their Sunday day of rest and worship."
���� In recent years, in America in particular, there has been a plan underway in our educational system and the media, to make White People ashamed of being White. We are indoctrinated daily with a "guilt complex." While it is perfectly acceptable for a Black to believe and preach that "Black is beautiful," for a White to do the same will bring cries of "racist" from the press and the Judeo-Christian pulpits of America.
���� While it is considered proper for a Jew to talk about his Jewishness, and the lie about his "Chosen People" status, you are considered to be a "religious bigot," if you believe the Truth, that the White People of Christendom, (the Anglo-Saxons, Germantic, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred people) are the True Chosen People of the Book.
���� As the result of this strange "lopsided" thinking, and because most of us have been sloshed around in the "liberal mind-detergent" of our times. This is a mind cleaning detergent made up of one once of fact, dissolved in a gallon of hogwash or bull shit. We have seen a strange and very sad thing happen in America, as our White Boys and Girls are being taught to be ashamed of their heritage. While I am not a "racial supremist," I am a "racist" if believing in one's own people and wanting to help them, makes one so. I go by these observable facts and many more:
1). Only our White People have openly������������ accepted the Gospel and Christianity.
2). Only our White People have abolished�������� slavery. England first in 1854, followed�������� by the U.S. in 1865.
3). Our White nations send out 98% of all������� Christian literature and missionaries.
4). Our White nations are the one's which�������� feed the world's starving.
5). Our White nations are the one's who���������� send aid when there has been a great���������� catastrophe.
6). It is only our White nations that have��������� based their governments on God's Laws.
�� ��If it makes you feel proud to see the accomplishments of the White Christian world, then according to the present "political" doctrine, you are a "racist or anti-Semitic!"
���� There is surely no nation in the world that holds "racism" and "Anti-Semitism" in greater horror than does the people in the United States. Compared to other kinds of offenses, it is thought to be somehow more reprehen-sible, than rape or murder - certainly more so than the murder of "innocent" unborn babies. The national media and public have become so used to tales of murder, rape, robbery, and arson, that any but the most spectacular crimes are shrugged off as part of the inevitable texture of American life.
���� However, "Racism" and "Anti-Semitism" are never shrugged off; for example, when a White Georgetown Law School Student reported in early 1995 that black students were not as qualified as White students, it set off a booming, national controversy about "racism."
���� If the student had related some statement that the Jews would have considered "Anti-Semitic," and anything or anyone that disagrees with them is labeled as such, or if they made the same statement the blacks would have considered them as "racist" the White student would have been crucified and discharged from the school. Or if the student had merely murdered someone he would have attracted far less attention and criticism.
���� Racism is, indeed, the national obsession. Universities are on full alert for it; newspapers and politicians denounce it; churches preach against it; yet America is said to be racked with it, but just what is racism? Dictionaries are not much help in under-standing what is meant by the word.
���� They usually define it as the belief that one's own ethnic stock is superior to others, or as the belief that culture and behavior are rooted in race. When Americans speak of racism they mean a great deal more than this.
���� Nevertheless, the dictionary definition of racism is a clue to understanding what Americans do mean. A peculiarly American meaning derives from the current dogma that all ethnic stocks are equal; despite clear evidence to the contrary. All races have been declared to be equally talented and hard-working, and anyone who questions the dogma is thought to be not merely wrong but evil.
���� The dogma has logical consequences that are profoundly important; if blacks, for example, are equal to Whites in every way - what accounts for their poverty, criminality, moral degeneracy and dissipation? Since any theory of racial differences has been outlawed, the only possible explanation for black failure is White Racism. And since blacks are markedly poor, crime-prone, and dissipated, America must be raced with pervasive racism. Nothing else could be keeping them in such an abject state.
���� All public discourse on race today is locked into this rigid logic and any explanation for black failure that does not depend on White Wickedness threatens to veer off into the forbidden territory of racial differences. Thus, even if today's Whites can find in their hearts no desire to oppress blacks, yesterday's Whites must have oppressed them.
���� If Whites do not consciously oppress blacks, they must oppress them unconsciously, if no obviously racist individuals can be identified, then social institutions must be racist.
���� Or, since blacks are failing so terribly in America there simply must be millions of White People we do not know about, who are working day and night to keep blacks in misery. The dogma of racial equality leaves no room for an explanation of black failure that is not, in some fashion, an indictment of White People.
���� The logical consequences of this are clear; since we are "required" to believe that the only explanation for non-White failure is White racism, every time a non-White is poor, commits a crime, goes on welfare, or takes drugs, White Society stands accused of yet another act of racism. All failure or misbehavior by non-Whites is standing proof that White society is riddled with hatred and bigotry. For precisely so long as non-Whites fail to succeed in life at exactly the same level as Whites, Whites will be, by definition, thwarting and oppressing them.
���� This obligatory pattern of thinking leads to strange conclusions:
�� FIRST: Racism is a sin that is thought to be committed, almost, exclusively by White People. Indeed, a black congressman from Chicago, Gus Savage, and Coleman Young, the black mayor of Detroit, have argued that only White People can be racist. Likewise in 1987, the affirmative action officer of the State Insurance Fund of New York issued a company pamphlet in which she explained that ALL Whites are racist and that ONLY Whites can be racist.
���� How else could the plight of blacks be explained without flirting with the possibility of racial inequality? Although some blacks and liberal Whites concede that non-Whites can, perhaps, be racist they invariably add that non-Whites have been forced into it as self-defense because of centuries of White oppression. What appears to be non-White racism is so understandable and forgivable that it hardly deserves the name. Thus, whether or not an act is called racism depends on the race of the racist. What would surely be called racism when done by Whites is thought to be normal when done by anyone else. The reverse is also true.
���� Examples of this sort of double standard are so common, it is almost tedious to list them: When a White man kills a black man and uses the word "nigger" while doing so, there is an enormous media uproar and the nation beats its collective breast; but when members of the Black Yahweh cult carry out ritual murders of random Whites, the media are silent.
���� College campuses forbid pejorative statements about non-Whites as "racist," but ignore scurrilous attacks on Whites. At election time, if 60 percent of the White voters vote for a White candidate, and 95 percent of the black voters vote for a black opponent, it is Whites who are accused of racial bias. There are 107 "historically black" colleges, whose fundamental blackness must be preserved in the name of diversity, but all historically White colleges must be forcibly integrated in the name of...the same thing. To resist would be racist.
���� "Black Pride" is said to be a wonderful and worthy thing, but anything that could be construed as an expression of White Pride is a form of hatred. It is perfectly natural for third-world immigrants to expect school instruction and driver's tests in their own languages, whereas for native Americans to ask them to learn English is racist.
���� Blatant anti-White prejudice, in the form of affirmative action, is now the law of the land; and anything remotely like affirmative action, if practiced in favor of Whites, would be attacked as despicable favoritism. All across the country, black, Hispanic and Asian clubs and caucuses are thought to be fine expressions of ethnic solidarity, but any club or association expressly for Whites is by definition racist.
���� The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) campaigns openly for black advantage but is a respected "civil rights" organization. The National Association for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP) campaigns merely for equal treatment of all races, but is said to be viciously racist and Anti-Semitic.
���� At a few college campuses, students opposed to affirmative action laws have set up student unions for White, analogous to those for blacks, Hispanics, Jews, and etc., and have been roundly condemned as racists. Recently, when the White students at Lowell High School in San Francisco found themselves to be a minority, they asked for a racially exclusive club like the ones that non-Whites have.
���� They were turned down in horror. Indeed, in America today, any club not specifically formed to be a White enclave but whose members simply happen all to be white is branded as racist or Anti-Semitic.
���� Today, one of the favorite slogans that define the asymmetric quality of American racism is "celebration of diversity." It has begun to dawn on a few people that "diversity" is always achieved at the expense of White (and most of the time White men), and never the other way around. No one proposes that Howard University be made more diverse by admitting Whites, Hispanics, or Asians.
���� No one ever suggests that National Hispanic University in San Jose, California would benefit from the diversity of having non-Hispanics on campus.�
���� No one suggests that the Black Congressional Caucus or the executive ranks of the NAACP or the Mexican-American Legal Defense and Educational Fund suffer from a lack of diversity. Somehow, it is perfectly legitimate for them to celebrate "homogeneity."
���� And yet any all-White group, a company, a town, a school, a club, a neighborhood, is thought to suffer from a crippling lack of diversity that must be remedied as quickly as possibly. Only when Whites have been reduced to a minority has "diversity" been achieved.
���� Let us put it bluntly. To "celebrate" or "embrace" diversity, as we are so often asked to so, is no different from "deploring an excess of Whites." In fact, the entire nation is thought to suffer from an excess of Whites. Our current immigration policies are structured so that approximately 90 percent of our annual 800,000 legal immigrants are non-White. The several million illegal immigrants that enter the country every year are virtually all non-White.
���� It would be racist not to be grateful for this laudable contribution to "diversity." It is, of course, only White nations that are called upon to practice this kind of "diversity." It is almost criminal to imagine a nation of any other race countenancing blatant dispossession of this kind.
���� What if the people in the United States were pouring its poorest, least educated and most criminal elements across the border into Mexico? Could anyone be fooled into thinking that Mexico was being "culturally enriched?" What if the state of Chihuahua were losing its majority population to poor Whites who demanded that schools be taught in English, who insisted on celebrating the Fourth of July, who demanded the right to vote even if they weren't citizens, who clamored for "affirmative action" in jobs and schooling?
���� Would Mexico, or any other non-White nation tolerate this kind of cultural and demographic depredation? Of course not. Yet White Americans are supposed to look upon the flood of Hispanics and Asians entering their country as a priceless cultural gift. They are supposed to "celebrate" their own loss of influence, their own dwindling numbers, their own dispossession, for to do otherwise would be hopelessly racist.
���� There is another curious asymmetry about American racism. When non-Whites advance their own racial purposes, no one ever accuses them of "hating" another group. Blacks and Jews can join "civil rights" groups and Hispanics can be activists without fear of being branded as bigots and hate mongers. They can agitate openly for racial preferences that can come only at the expense of Whites. They can demand preferential treatment of all kinds without anyone ever suggesting that they are "anti-White."
���� Whites, on the other hand, need only express their opposition to affirmative action to be called haters. They need only subject racial policies that are clearly prejudicial to themselves to be called racists. Should they actually go so far as to say that they prefer the company of their own kind, that they wish to be left alone to enjoy the fruits of their European heritage, they are irredeemably wicked and hateful.
���� Here, then is the final, baffling inconsistency about American race relations: All non-Whites are allowed to prefer the company of their own kind, to think of themselves as groups with interests distinct from those of the whole, and to work openly or group advantage. None of this is thought to be racist. At the same time, "Whites" must "also" champion the racial interests of non-Whites.
���� They must sacrifice their own future on the altar of "diversity" and cooperate in their own dispossession. They are to encourage, even to subsidize, the displacement of a European people and culture by alien peoples and cultures. To put it in the simplest possible terms, White people are cheerfully to slaughter their own society, to commit racial and cultural suicide. To refuse to do so would be racism.
� ���Of course, the entire non-White enterprise in the United States is perfectly natural and healthy. Nothing could be more natural than to love one's people and to hope that it should flourish. Filipinos and El Salvadorans are doubtless astonished to discover that simply by setting foot in the United States they are entitled to affirmative action preferences over native-born Whites, but can they be blamed for accepting them?
���� Is it surprising that they should want their languages, their cultures, their brothers and sisters to take possession and put their mark indelibly on the land? If the once-great people of a once-great nation is bent upon self-destruction and is prepared to hand over land and power to whomever shows up and asks for it, why should Mexican, Blacks, Jews and etc., complain?
���� No, it is the White enterprise in the united States that is unnatural, unhealthy, and without historical precedent. Whites have let themselves be convinced that it is racist merely to object to dispossession, they have allowed themselves to be convinced that it is natural for their sons and daughters to marry a black, Jew or any other race, other than their own, that it is racist to work for their own interests.
���� Never in the history of the world has a dominant people thrown open the gates to strangers, and poured out its wealth to aliens. Never before has a people been fooled into thinking that there was virtue or nobility in surrendering its heritage, and giving away to others its place in history.
���� Of all the races in America, only Whites have been tricked into thinking that a preference for one's own kind is racism. Only Whites are ever told that a love for their own people is somehow "hatred" of others. All healthy people prefer the company of their own kind, and it has nothing to do with hatred.
���� All men love their families more than their neighbors, but this does not mean that they hate their neighbors. Whites who love their racial family need bear no ill will towards non-Whites. They only wish to be left alone to participate in the unfolding of their racial and cultural destinies.
���� What Whites in America are being asked to do is, therefore, is utterly unnatural; they are being asked to devote themselves to the interests of other races and to ignore the interests of their own kind. This is like asking a man to forsake his own children and love the children of his neighbors, since to do otherwise would be "racist."
���� What then, is "racism?" It is considerably more than any dictionary is likely to say. It is any opposition by Whites to official policies of racial preference for non-Whites. It is any preference by Whites for their own people and culture.
���� It is resistance by Whites to the idea of becoming a minority people. It is any unwillingness to be pushed aside. It is, in short, any of the normal aspirations of people-hood that have defined nations since the beginning of history; but only so long as the aspirations are those of Whites.
���� These same anti-Christ's are at work in America, striving mightily to destroy the freedoms our forefathers fought and died for and we might add the freedom the blacks and Jews have enjoyed over the years also. While many intellectuals sneer at the idea of a conspiracy going on now, they will admit there have been many conspiracies in history. But it won't happen here!
���� The nations of Christendom are unique among all other nations of the world, because their laws are based on the premises that there are certain "God given right" which are outside the scope of governmental control. Since these rights come from God Himself, they are known as "inalienable right." Government may not tamper with these in any way, shape or form.
���� There are four major rights we have in America, which form the foundation of our Constitutional government:
�� 1). The RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, as found in the Second Amendment. A freedman has always had the "God given right" to protect himself, his family and his property from the depredations of evil men, whether they be "run of the mill" criminals, or a criminal government which seeks to run roughshod over the rights of it's people.
���� The government criminal, acting within the protection of the Law, may be more of a danger to you than the man who seeks to break into your house and rob you of your belongings. This is the principal reason this Amendment was included in the Constitution.
���� It was not for the rights of a man to hunt, or have gun for target practice, but as a "last ditch stand" of the Freedman against a government which has run amok. Our Founding Fathers stated that if the time ever came, when our government began to take away our God given rights, then it became not only our Right, but our Duty to throw out that government and install one which would protect the rights of it's citizens.
�� 2). The RIGHT OF WORSHIP WITHOUT STATE CONTROL. This country was never meant to be a "pluralistic society." it was set up as a Christian country, to protect the rights of Christians to worship God according to the dictates of their conscience. The documents which founded every state prove this! Many of them specifically state that they were formed: "For the glory of God and the propagation of the Christian faith." Other religions have obtained freedom under our system.
�� 3). The FREEDOM OF SPEECH, PRESS and ASSEMBLY, and last, but not least;
�� 4). The RIGHT TO OWN PROPERTY.
���� There are many others, some incor-porated in the Bill of Rights, but these four are the cornerstones on which the foundation of America was laid. These were the rights our forefathers demanded from the tyrannical King John of England, when on a foggy day in the year 1214, at Runnymeade, England, the British freedmen, sword in hand, forced the king to sign a document called the Magna Carta. They did not do this on bended knee, but stood "SWORD IN HAND" and demanded their God given rights.
���� Since that time, the nations of Christendom have been unique in their concept of freedom. We must remember that Freedom is a fragile thing at best. Benjamin Franklin, the senior statesman of America once stated: "He who values security more than his freedom, deserves neither."
���� Our Christian people for the most part, have forgotten this advice in these "latter days." The abortion issue is a good example. We have well meaning people in America, who cry great crocodile tears over the fate of baby seals in Newfoundland, yet see nothing wrong with the murder of 2-million unborn babies every year by abortion.
���� Entire communities come together to rescue a few whales trapped in the ice, and spend millions to free them, while others cheer from the sidelines. Yet the feeling of millions of young Americans, including many Christians, can be summed up in the words of a beautiful co-ed at Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, who asked: "If we can't have abortions and contraceptives, how will we handle the population explosion."
���� When asked if she had ever heard of such a thing as "self-control," one would have thought from the crowd reaction, that she had been slapped in the face.
���� There were about 800 young Americans, ready to make their way into adulthood, who did not know that they had "freedom of choice" to decide whether they wanted to do "good" or "evil."
���� They had been taught by Satanic teachers and everything they did was conditioned by their environment, and that they had no moral choice. How sad, and how terrible will be God's punishment on those who have taught them these falsehoods.
���� Later, it was discovered that the young woman who had asked the question was head of a committee dedicated to saving baby seals, yet she could see nothing wrong in the murder of unborn babies in the abortion murder mills of America. She had been taught that it was a woman's right to control her own body, even if it meant breaking one of God's major Laws. "Thou shalt not commit murder!"
���� Many Americans will take a stand for some "pet right" and ignore others. This is extremely dangerous. All our freedoms are so intricately woven together into the fabric of our well-being, that if we neglect one, a deterioration process begins, which in time will destroy all of them.
���� This principle was understood by a well-known America patriot named Davy Crockett, who in 1833, took a military force of Tennesseans on a thousand mile cross-country trek to fight at the Alamo. when they arrived, the Texicans said: "Davy, why did you come? This isn't your fight!" And Crockett said: "I've made it my fight!"
���� Why? Because he knew that if freedom was destroyed in Texas, it would only be a matter of time until it was destroyed in Tennessee. The same is true in 1995.
���� If we allow the enemy to destroy South Africa, and in this case the enemy is our Shadow Government, the same force will in time destroy America, using the same methods. If the Shadow government can take away the right of parents in Nebraska to "home school" their children, they can do it wherever you are.
���� Whenever government forgets the true meaning of government, which makes it the "servant of the people," it becomes a terrible monster. Like "fire," it can be a blessing when it is under control, but a frightful monster when there is no control.
���� In America today, we are under attack from foreign, anti-Christ forces, headed by such organizations as the Anti-Defamation League, of the Jewish B'nai B'rith, which is an unlicensed agent of a foreign country (The Israeli government), that has been operating illegally on America soil, with government approval.
���� They have become the official advisor of our Justice Department in their dealing with Christian Patriots and for all practical purposes run our State Department and CIA in their handling of foreign affairs.
���� Yet they have shown they will throw their brother and sister Jews to the wolves if they can gain more power, political control or money; The ADL cares nothing for American Jews, they are totally subservient to a foreign government which has clearly shown its contempt for the average American Jew!
���� When you read in the media, which is controlled by this same foreign, anti-Christ power, that the government is taking action against some Christian Patriot, or group of patriots, invariably you will see some statement from "Abie of the ADL."
���� Look and See for Yourself! These are the people who have set up laws forbidding "para-military" training, while carrying out this same training in at least seventeen states free from government harassment. Let a group of Christian Patriot attempt to do this and see what happens!
���� We have all seen TV articles showing the activities of the militias. They have shown such activities as target practice with their weapons and close-combat training as well as Special Forces type squad training.
���� In fact, they have disclosed repeatedly that ex-Special Forces personnel are being used as the primary training teams.
���� In each of these TV articles the emphasis is on the supposed illegality of such activities. As we know, even the Congress is now holding hearings on these activities. The militia members interviewed at these hearings have conducted themselves in an exemplary manner.
���� But what about activities of this type by Jewish organizations? Have there been TV articles and documentaries covering the Camp Jedel operations in the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York?
���� According to articles found in "The Times Herald Record," August 19, 1981; the "Albuquerque Journal," August 29, 1981; the "World News Examiner," August 20, 1982; "Time," August 30, 1971; "New York Sunday Record," August 23, 1981, the Jewish Defense League's activities at this camp are well documented.
���� Notice that these articles are nearly 15 years old. Notice, also, that there has been no government intervention in any way and in fact, the camp is totally ignored.
���� As found in "The Zionist Terror Network: Background and Operations of the Jewish Defense League" ISBN 0-939484-22-6, "Institute For Historical Review," P.O. Box 1306, Torrance, CA 90505, we find this description of their activities: "Publically, both the JDL and Kahane (now deceased) are disavowed by mainstream Jewish organizations in the U.S. However, while Jewish leaders do not generally support the JDL in public many Jews are contributing to the organization. The Jewish Defense League has substantial real estate holdings including a school for terrorists in the Catskills, Camp Jedel, where Allen Goodman, a JDL member who massacred Arab civilians at the Temple Mount in Jerusalem in 1982, received paramilitary instruction.
�� The camp, a former Catskills resort, and another 62-acre site nearby, is surrounded by a metal fence and features a 30-foot watchtower. It is guarded by men armed with semi-automatic AR-15 rifles. Photos of Arab leaders are used for target practice at the training site. Participants are indoctrinated by rabbis who deliver 'highly emotional' speeches, often using a rifle as a prop. Members of both the Israeli armed forces and U.S. Army Special Forces have instructed JDL recruits in military tactics at the camp.
�� The JDL used another paramilitary camp in the hills of California's Texas Canyon, which was under the control of West Coast JDL leader Irving Rubin. League members, including Mordachai Levy, received weapons training here in 1980."
���� Think about it fellow Texans, this is the camp that trains Israeli Soldiers, FBI, ATF, DEA and U.S. Marshalls to be women and baby killers. Yet Congress, nor the media say anything about it! WHY?????
���� But such is the strength of this alien enemy in the halls of our Congress and in the Judaized and subverted Judeo-Christian churches of America, that our leaders are afraid to stand up and fight against them, for it is the "kiss of death" to any politician, or pastor who has the courage to resist them.
���� The reason our British forefathers put such rigid controls on King John, 775 years ago and then continued them in their Constitutions, was that they were not only Statesmen, they were also Historians. They realized that history proves that governments left to themselves, always seek control over its citizens, under the guidance of unscrupulous men who will gain by it!
���� The founders of our government took steps to protect the rights of Americans against such a government, in the remarkable document we call the Bill of Rights. It should and could be rightfully be called a Bill of Limitations, for that is what it is supposed to do to government.
���� The first nine amendments say in essence to big government: "Thou shalt not! Thou shalt not! Thou shalt not!" Then the Tenth Amend-ment, says it all by saying in essence: "Government, if there is anything we forgot in the first nine Amendments, you can't do that either, without the permission of the people."
���� By following these principles we have remained relatively free for over 200 years. But now, evil men in the government and a group in Congress known as the M.C.P.L. Members of Congress for Peace Through (World) Law, are pushing one agenda; One World Government.
���� Remember, that all these men have taken an oath of office to protect and defend our Constitution against ALL enemies, both foreign and domestic and they have not done this. To all intents and purposes, according to the definition of our Constitution, Article III, Section 3, they are TRAITORS! And should be dealt with accordingly!
���� Have you ever wondered why the 2nd Amendment, the Right of the People to Keep and Bear Arms, is under perennial attack? It is because this Amendment is the foundation of ALL of our freedoms.
���� The great International Lawyer, Frederick Bastiat, in his book "The Law," states: "Each of us has the natural right, from God, to defend his person, his liberty and his property. These are the three basic requirements of life; the preservation of any one of them, is dependent on the preservations of the other two."
���� Civilization has been based on this premise for the past 6,000 years of written history. Once the right of a freedman to protect himself, his family and his property against anyone is taken away, he becomes a slave! Even the Scriptures tell us: "But if any provide not for his own, and specially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel." [1]
���� The Communist Lenin knew this when he stated: "A system of licensing and registration of firearms is the perfect device to deny gun ownership to the bourgeois." One thing the "free world" should have learned a long time ago, is that you can't play "patty cake" with a rattlesnake without getting bit! We have in America, many people who are either so "naive" or "brainwashed" that they believe if all tiger hunters would hang up their guns, the big cats would turn into vegetarians over night.
���� But here is a fact of life, they refuse to face. No matter whether you view a tiger as a "pussy cat" or a "beautiful animal," he is still a tiger. His tiger appetite for flesh and blood is as much a part of his tiger nature, as his stripes and when you live in a district where "man-eating" tigers roam, sensible people go armed!
���� The same is true when dealing with criminals or government traitors! The liberals in our government who have such lovely dreams of the future, simply can't understand that you can't legislate "equality" by law. That's the main reason they have pushed their "integration programs."
���� It is not to help the Blacks, or other Minority people, but to accomplish the "mongrelization of America!" You see, these men are also historians and know that history proves that whenever a people become "mongrelized" they are easier to control and are on their way to destruction.� Especially Roman, Greek, Egyptian and Babylonian history. Every great civilization that has existed in our 6,000 years of written history, has had to learn this lesson the "hard way."
���� I have been wondering why, after all these years, why our young White girls were suddenly so attracted to the blacks, but I now know why this is happening. It is because God wishes it to be so. Listening to a tape from one of the preachers who send them to me, I heard him say something that literally blew my mind. So I looked it up and sure enough, what I heard was true.
���� As you know I believe that the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred people of the earth today are the True Children of Israel. And that I also believe that the black race, is the "Beast of the Field" as spoken of in the Scriptures; so taking this into consideration when we read the following it is obvious the mixing of the White and the Black races IS OF GOD.
���� Yes, the mixing of the White Israelites and the Negroes, who are the "Beast of the Field," as spoken of in the scripture was prophesied by Jeremiah, as a sign of the last days of this age.
���� "Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until he have done it, and until he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it. At the same time, saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people. Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword (The Israel people which have been left from the murders of the Jews and Communists for the past 200 years) found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest (The American Israel people have, really, for the most part been at rest from wars such as they experienced in days gone by). The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee...For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion unto the Lord our God...Behold, I will bring them from the north country (Gog and Magog, Russia and China), and gather them from the coasts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall return thither. They shall come with weeping, and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, wherein they shall not stumble: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my firstborn. Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all (The American Israel people have not gone hungry, since the latter day Israel, The United States of America has been a nation). Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow. And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness (The American Israel people did have virgins rejoicing in their virginity and the men were glad for it; they were fed to the full of everything the earth had to offer and they were certainly satisfied with the goodness and the fatness of the land), saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord; A voice was heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not (Can there be any doubt that Rahel has been weeping for her children, for over 100-million of them have been murdered in the last century alone). Thus saith the Lord; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for thy work shall be rewarded, saith the Lord; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy. And there is hope in thine end, saith the Lord, that thy children shall come again to their own border. I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the Lord my God. Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth. Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the Lord. Set thee up waymarks, make thee high heaps: set thine heart toward the highway, even the way which thou wentest: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities (In the last 50 years the people of the land have been moving more and more to the city because of government actions). How long wilt thou go about, O thou backsliding daughter? for the Lord hath created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man (In this day and time women, children and aliens do rule over the Israel men). Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The Lord bless thee, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness. And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks. For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul. Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me. Behold, THE DAYS COME, SAITH THE LORD, THAT I WILL SOW THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AND THE HOUSE OF JUDAH WITH THE SEED OF MAN, AND WITH THE SEED OF BEAST (The Negroes)." [2]
���� It is an observable fact, that the aliens who have flocked illegally into America in the past thirty years, have become an albatross around our neck which is sinking us. They have not been a blessing to us.
���� During one period in the 19th Century, over 40-million immigrants flocked to these shores in the greatest immigration of all times. Almost 100% of them came from the White Christian nations of Europe. While their spoken language was not always the same, their heart's language was. Their ideas concerning freedom, religion, morals, integrity, womanhood, the family and the work ethic, were very similar. Which is just what the Scriptures said the True Israelites would do: "Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt." [3]
���� But the immigrants who have inundated America in the last 50 years, are for the most part, alien to everything America stands for. They are heathen in concept, anti-Christian in religious belief, and most have come for what they can get from our people, and not what they can contribute to the country. They have flocked into America by the millions, settling in large cities like New York, Los Angeles and Miami.
���� The reason the enemy wants to destroy farmers and small business, is that you are the "backbone of the nation; you are the blue that causes America to hang together; you are the people who made us great. You are the conscience of the nation."
���� Wake up to your responsibility! We do not advocate annihilation of everyone who disagrees with us. That's not only un-Christian but ridiculous. But we have the right to say to the aliens in our midst.
���� If you want to live in peace within our borders, as productive citizens, and enjoy the freedom and security you will find nowhere else, then dwell in peace. But when you begin to interfere with our Christian way of life; when you attack our Christian principles; when you tell us what we can and can't teach our children in the public schools, or what Christian displays we may use on our Christian holidays, then you have outstayed your welcome and we have the right to ask you to depart. If you will not do so peacefully, then we should "throw them out."
���� We are sure that many of our problems come from a lack of understanding of the basic principles of freedom, for although we are an educated people, that does not mean we are knowledgeable. Someone once truth-fully said: "Education without God, turns men into clever devils." And it often appears as though this is the goal of modern education. it certainly is not to develop Christian Americans.
���� We are inundated by men in position of responsibility, who are in the words of the Apostle Paul: "Ever learning, but never able to come to an understanding of the truth." [4] According to Isaiah 56:10-11, the D.D. behind many preacher's name could well stand for "Dumb Dog" instead of "Doctor of Divinity."
���� There are several reasons behind this lack of understanding on the part of our people. One is that the leadership of America, under the apathy of it's citizens, has sunk to a new low level. If you don't believe this, look at the level of appointees that have been elevated to positions of responsibility within the Clinton Administration. They are top heavy with anti-Christians, non-Whites and sexual deviates.
���� It seems to us that our current crop of politicians in "le cesspolle Grande on the Potomac," are more interested in promoting themselves than in the welfare of the country. As a result they will "sell out" to anyone who has the money, and are willing to pay for their Treason.
���� Second, our people as a whole, Christians foremost, have become mentally lazy and apathetic. It has become much easier to sit before the TV screen, or read a newspaper for our education, while you will find very few Christians who will look into the Bible for the answers.
���� When they come to a place that is difficult to understand, they trot to their Judeo-Christian minister, who tells them what he was taught in the seminary. Maybe it's right, but many times it's wrong. After all, we reason; the pastor is educated in the Scriptures. That's why we pay him. We can trust what he says. Yet we neglect the Scriptures such as Jeremiah 23:22, which clearly indicates that if the pastors would "preach the whole counsel of God's Word, the people would turn from their wicked ways." This by no means has happened, which indicates to us that something is terribly wrong with the preaching coming from our churches.
���� As a result, our churches are turning out a crop of Alka Seltzer Christians, who come to church and "fizz" for an hour or two on Sunday, while the rest of the week they can't be distinguished from the worldly crowd.
���� They are no doubt the Christians Jesus spoke about in Matthew 5:13, when He mentioned the "salt which had lost it's savor." It's ability to act as salt and hold back corruption. Then too, the American people are continually attacked by an enemy strategy called "mis-information." In the words of an old Arkansas hillbilly: "It ain't from knowin' so much that causes the trouble; as it's from knowin' so much that ain't so."
������������� THE ROCKEFELLER FAMILY
������������������������ SECRET JEWS!
���� A book overlooked by most people and published for sale mainly within the Jewish community states that the Rockefellers are Jews of Sephardic descent (meaning Spanish and Portuguese Jews). The book is entitled "The Grandees - America's Sephardic Elite." The author is Stephen Birmingham, who is recognized by the Jewish community as an expert on Jewish history.
���� The publisher of "The Grandees" is the Jewish owned publishing firm of "Harper and Row" of New York City. Mr. Birmingham also wrote the book "Our Crowd" about the family background of America's wealthiest and most successful Jews. Both books have been hailed by Jewish publications as first class works in the documentation of Jewish history.
���� In "The Grandees" Stephen Birmingham reveals the existence of a very rare book which was published only for Jews some years ago. The work was published only for Jews some years ago. The work was compiled by the Jewish historian Malcolm H. Stern and entitled "Americans of Jewish Decent." That book weighed 10 pounds and gave the history of 25,000 Jewish individuals in America.
���� It is extremely interesting to note that only 550 copies of the book were printed and each copy was consecutively numbered. The book was delivered to the top Jewish community leaders in America for their personal reference files in dealing with and contacting Jews who are "Marranos" (those Jews who "PRETEND" to be Christians in their community but secretly hold to their Jewish faith and race when among their own kind).
���� Mr. Birmingham in "The Grandees" reports: "Who would expect to find the Rockefellers in the book." Stern's work traces what he calls the "Nobility of Jewry - the Sephardim who lived in Spain and Portugal as princes of the land."
���� Many centuries ago the Jews flooded into Spain in great numbers and through usury and stealth became vast land owners. The Jews controlled both Spain and Portugal through their monopoly over the finances of the country.
���� It was in 1492 that King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain expelled the Jews from their country and confiscated their ill-gotten wealth. It was during this period that the Rockefeller family moved to the Turkish Empire which welcomed the Jews at that time, believing them to be a "poor persecuted people."
���� The grandfather of our former Vice-President Nelson Rockefeller, admitted that his family once moved from Turkey to France. It was from France that they moved to America. John D. Rockefeller, Sr., was a wealthy man even before he took over Standard Oil Co., which made their family one of the richest in the world. No one has ever explained how this family came into such wealth as soon as they arrived in America from France.
���� There is no known information on how the Rockefellers came into huge amounts of money in France. Some thing they got their money from the Rothschilds and were originally their agents in buying up Christian businesses in America.
���� "Marranos" are Jews who "PRETEND" to convert to Christianity so as to deceive Christians in their business dealings, but secretly continued to practice Judaism in private rituals. For this reason, a Marrano family like the Rockefellers would make the perfect tool for the Rothschilds of France who have for centuries used secret agents to carry on their work.
���� "The Thunderbolt" was the first publication to bring Vice-President Nelson Rockefeller's Jewish ancestry to public attention. This information finally explains why he has always been able to work so closely with Jewish interests and why his administration as governor of New York was loaded down with Jews from top to bottom. His political campaigns of the past were always directed by Jews and he was always the support of the Jewish community in all of his political races.
���� Normally the Jews would not support a Christian multi-millionaire for political office because they would be afraid they could not control him after the election. The fact that Jewish community leaders have long known that the Rockefellers were fellow Jews goes a long way in explaining why the organized Jewish community has always supported the Rockefeller's political ambitions. Now we can see why Nelson and David Rockefeller boosted his fellow Jew Henry Kissinger into the Nixon administration and Kissinger in turn has used his position to bring his fellow Jew Rockefeller into power.
��� �Nothing is more diabolically powerful, and more devastating, than the emotion of greed. Unfortunately, the evil monster, called greed, continues to raise its ugly head among the spiritual debris of the largest of today's apostate and backslidden "Judeo-Christian" ministries. In Isaiah, God describes the men who lead such ministries as "dumb dogs... greedy dogs."
���� "His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber. Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter." [5]
���� You may be aware of the recent newspaper accounts of the "New Era Foundation" scam. Judeo-Christian ministries across America fell victim to massive, far-reaching greed; as a smooth and polished, well-dressed and immaculately mannered huckster, John G. Bennett, first ingratiated himself with many of America's best known ministries; then he took their money.
���� Mr. Bennett, a prominent figure was a highly visible member of the Presidential Prayer Breakfasts and other evangelical sideshows, where he convinced gullible "Judeo-Christian" leaders that his altruistic foundation, "New Era," had well-heeled financial backers. "My backers," Bennett reassured his soon-to-be victims, "are willing to match one dollar for every dollar put up by your Christian group. Give New Era one million dollars and we'll give you back two million."
���� It sounded almost too good to be true; and it was. Yet scores of Judeo-Christian ministry leaders bought it hook, line and sinker: Not remembering or ignoring the old adage that "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is; and that there is a sucker born every minute."
���� Therefore, there was an evangelical disaster caused by greed among the Judeo-Christian circles. James Dobson, ecumenical head of "Focus on the Family," "The 700 Club," through Pat Robertson and his fellow ecumenists, Chuck Colson of "Prison Fellowship" and Bill Bright of "Campus Crusade for Christ."
���� Joining them in agreeing to hand over tote bags full of cash to con man Mr. Bennet and New Era were the leaders of "Inter-national Missions, Youth for Christ International, World Vision, Inter-Varsity Christian Fellowship, Mercy Ships International, Wheaton College, Louis Palau Evangelistic Ministries, the Salvation Army, Concerts for Prayer International, the Haggai Institute, Walk Through The Bible Ministries, Mission Aviation Fellowship, Young Life, Gordon-Conwell Seminary, Moody Bible Institute, Lancaster Bible College, Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), Covenant College, Westminister Theological Seminary, Willow Creek Community Church, and Chapel of the Air."�������� The list goes on and on. They were probably chosen because of their track record in being fleeced by the Zionist Jews for years.
���� The ignorance and deception factor on the part of the "Judeo-Christian" leaders is almost unbelievable, but then there is no easier to con than an old con man, who believes he knows all the tricks. James Dobson, a psychology guru heard daily on over 1,000 radio stations, tried to justify his greedy act in a letter to people on his mailing list. Dobson craftily explained that he and the other ministers "trusted" Mr. Bennet and New Era because they believed that Bennett's project had the backing of such highly respectable men as "John Templeton, of the Templeton Fund, and Lawrence Rockefeller of the famous Rockefeller family."
���� This should come as no surprise to anyone because the Rockefellers are International Jewish Bankers and therefore are some of the best thieves of all times. We know this because a book called "The Grandees - America's Sephardic Elite," by Stephen Birmingham, a recognized expert on Jewish history.
���� It is obvious how jaded and Dobson and the others are to the light of God's Truth. Billionaire John Templeton is a New Ager and has been for years! He believes that "Christ" resides in Buddhists, Hindus, and Moslems as well as Christians. He's a favorite speaker at Unity Church, a New Age religious group.
���� What must have gotten Dobson, Robertson, Colson, and the others greedily slobbering at the mouth is that once each year, Templeton doles out a cool one million dollars to the recipient of his "Progress in Religion" prize.
���� In 1993, at the Satanic-inspired Parliament of the Worlds Religions in Chicago, Chuck Colson thanked the Wall Street magnate for choosing "him" for the Templeton Prize. Previously, Billy Graham, also, had went to the bank with a million from this New Age tempter. In the past, Templeton has given the identical cash awards to Buddhists, Moslems, and other heathen. Apparently, Templeton is no respecter of religions. Any antichrist sect will do.
� ���Super wealthy Illuminati member Lawrence Rockefeller, the other billionaire in whom Dobson and others placed their "trust" and confidence, is also a devout New Ager. So devout, in fact, that in his Antichrist book, "The Coming of the Cosmic Christ," former Catholic Priest (now an Episcopalian) Matthew Fox thanks Lawrence Rockefeller (closet Jew) for giving him the grant of money that made his book possible. Fox's book, or course, proclaims that Jesus is a god of the past and that man must worship other gods in the new era of Aquarius.
���� Billy Graham's strange and mysterious connections with both John Templeton and with John G. Bennett (But it is not so strange when one realizes that Billy Graham is a JEW!) may well have contributed to New Era's success in soaking Christian ministries and groups. In 1992 Billy Graham invited Bennett to speak at a Graham crusade in Philadelphia. "The Philadelphia Inquirer" (May 21, 1995) quoted John G. Templeton, Jr., as recalling how Bennett "gave a testimony at Billy Graham's crusade that was very powerful, very uplifting." According to Templeton, Bennett was "very involved" in the Billy Graham crusade.
���� We see, then, a major reason why so many gullible Christian leaders fell victim to Bennett's flim-flam operation. They thought that if Billy Graham endorses him, he must be alright. The Graham factor and being such easy pickings for the Zionists looms as two key reasons for the success of the scam.
���� Then, finally, there is John G. Bennett himself, the slickester whose New Era Foundation took Colson, Dobson, and the others to the cleaners; Who, really, is this sly and seductive fellow? One knowledgeable insider of the New Age scene was asking if Bennett was taking these millions of dollars from the deceived Judeo-Christian ministries and secretly transferring the money to New Age organizations.
���� Another observer voiced suspicion that some leaders of the Judeo-Christian groups, being closet New Agers and Zionists themselves, "purposely" gave money to New Era, realizing full well they were clandestinely arranging for the money of unwitting Judeo-Christian contributors to go for favored New Age projects.
���� It would appear more likely that the scandal is a simple matter of greed and ignorance; the leaders of the evangelical "Religious Right" are such scam artists themselves they are greedy dogs which can never get enough just want more and more money, and they don't care where it comes from. We believe the Bible is correct, these men are "dumb dogs...greedy dogs," collaborating with the enemies of Christ, when they "should" be watchmen on the wall, zealously guarding the flock of God from New Age predators.
���� "Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord. Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them...Mine heart within me is broken because of the prophets; all my bones shake...the land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth; the pleasant places of the wilderness are dried up, and their course is evil, and their force is not right. For both prophet and priest are profane; yea, in my house have I found their wickedness, saith the Lord...I have seen folly in the prophets...they prophesied in Baal, and caused my people Israel to err. I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah...Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord. They say still unto them that despise me, The Lord hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. For who hath stood in the counsel of the Lord, and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it? Behold, a whirlwind of the Lord is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked. The anger of the Lord shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly. I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings...I have heard what the prophets said, that prophesy lies in my name...the prophets that prophesy lies? yea, they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart; Which think to cause my people to forget my name...as their fathers have forgotten my name for Baal...I am against them that...cause my people to err by their lies, and by their lightness; yet I sent them not, nor commanded them..."

���� AMERICA THE TIME FOR SLUMBER HAS RUN OUT: The following article was published as a supplement to "Wake Up Magazine" for September/October 1994 under the title, "When Will Britain Wake Up? ‑‑ Her Time for Slumber has Run Out," by Reginald H.W. Cox, to whom we are indebted.
���� As I read it, I could see that it would apply to America just as well and thought you just might enjoy reading it also. So it is presented here with the name "Britain" changed to "America" because we believe that it applies equally well to both countries. In fact, it applies to every Israel nation in the Christian World.
���� It was delivered to an international gathering of concerned Christians at the Hayes, Swanwick, Derbyshire, by the author, the former rector of St. Jude's Church, Walsall. Though there have been many important and significant events in the four years between then and now, the substance of his remarks is no less topical and relevant in today's climate of advanced immorality, even in all of Christendom.
���� "All of us gathered here have been Christ's faithful watchmen over many years. I have been on the wall for more than sixty years and, during this lifetime, have seen the fulfillment of a number of prophecies, including the Deliverance of Jerusalem in 1917, each pointing to the nearness of our Lord's return to establish the Kingdom of God on Earth, for which we petition unceasingly in the Lord's Prayer. As I have grown older, questions recur with increasing frequency: Does our Lord require us only to 'watch and pray' [7]? Are we to do or say nothing bout the ever‑growing threats to destroy our country and those we love? Are we to be silent while our people live carelessly and stumble from one dangerous deception to another?
���� Before we examine these questions, before we consider the Great Deception which is destroying us as a Christian Nation, thwarting every effort we make towards becoming a healthy people living prosperously and safely under the protection of Almighty God, we should remind ourselves what Scripture teaches us about Satan and the evil spiritual forces under his direction. We should do this because the theologians and the higher critics, the modernists and the humanists all tell us that the Devil or Satan or the dragon or that old serpent, as Jesus Christ calls him [8], does not exist!
���� Satan is on their side and he will prosper and propagate these doctrines (such as the Rapture Theory ‑ and the Separation of Church and State Theory) because he wants us to believe them so that humanity and God's great Cause in the earth might be destroyed. The theologians teach us that all human suffering and all the evils that afflict us are essentially the result of mankind's frailty and natural tendency to sin. This must surely mean that God created us flawed.
���� The late Howard Rand, that wise and sagacious American watchman, pointed out that, so long as the Scriptural version of Satan as a celestial being in opposition to God prevails, then the truth that God exists will not be completely eradicated. He went on to ask if Jesus was lying when He said:
'He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man...but the tares ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE WICKED ONE; The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world (or age); and the reapers are the angels.' [9]
���� In the United States the Christian church is in very serious decline. One of the reasons for this is that the great majority of church leaders have entirely lost or rejected the vision of the Kingdom of God and the reality of the spiritual struggle between God and the Devil, between good and evil, which will end with our Lord Jesus Christ establishing that Kingdom here on earth; that much longed‑for event which, happily, now appears to be very close. That the Devil has been able to corrupt and mislead the Church, the Body of Christ, is a shock to many Christians, but the evidence is seen in the seduction of church leaders (some of whom do not hesitate to declare publicly their doubts about the veracity of the Holy Writ) and the modernistic tendency to so spiritualize even the plainest facts of Scripture that these become unreal or unacceptable (They are even unable to comprehend who True Israel is and teach, falsely, that the Jews are them).
���� SEPARATING CHURCH AND STATE IS A RECIPE FOR DISASTER: To the dangers which threaten the Church we shall return. Right now we must look at the manner in which Satan has succeeded in deceiving those whom Christ has described as 'the very elect' [10]. The key to this Great Deception is the widely accepted satanic lie that there is no place for religion in politics or for politics in religion; that the two philosophies are incompatible and must, for this reason, be kept apart. By accepting this lie as a profound truth, Christian countries have been deceived into separating Church and State, with disastrous results for their peoples.
���� This Great Deception has been inflicted upon the peoples and government of the Untied States, but here the separation has not become quite complete; there is a lingering suspicion that the government of the State might be accountable to Almighty God. So the President, the Head of State, is crowned in a religious service which closely resembles the crowning of the kings of ancient Israel (but without a crown). (In England) the Prime Minister, the elected head of their government, has to approve the appointment of the bishops of the national church, much as the order of the Old Testament where Moses was instructor to Aaron, the High Priest. Also, each sitting of Congress and Britain's House of Commons is opened with a formal prayer by the chaplain.
���� However, acknowledgement that the only lawgiver is Almighty God is not found in our State proceedings or Courts of Law. Yet God has already promulgated the laws by which we should be governed, and the only legitimate function of the Congress is to draft the regulations which will ensure the Divine Law. No one, even among our educated classes and leaders of thought, seems to be aware of God's promise that, if we willingly obey His Divine Law and keep His statutes, He will give us, as a nation, freedom from want and disease; that He will, among other blessings, protect us from our enemies and from those who hate us, that we may live in peace.
���� Far from devising instruments to ensure that the Divine Law is observed throughout the United States, that we might enjoy these transcendent blessings, our would‑be legislators, under the influence of satanic agency, not merely ignore God's wise counsel but have flagrantly defied the Divine Law by introducing measures to permit misbehavior condemned by God, resulting in filthy and horrifying perversions which, under Divine Law, attract the death penalty. This arrogant rejection of the omnipotent wisdom of Almighty God has resulted in AIDS, ABORTIONS, HOMOSEXUALS, and the dedicated work of our medical research teams will be rewarded only after sodomy and its related perversions are once more criminal offenses attracting the most severe punishment; only after the nation's rulers repent of their mischief.
���� A REPUBLIC (now falsely called a Democracy), THOUGH THE BEST MAN HAS ACHIEVED, IS NOT EFFICIENT: This is merely one of the administrative blunders committed by a body acting in ignorance or in contempt of the Divine Will. It is noted here because it illustrates the dangers inherent in the type of government defined by Abraham Lincoln as 'government of the people, by the people, for the people.' It must be admitted that, while democracy is not particularly efficient, it is better, much better, than any other form of government yet evolved by man.
���� Even so, our politicians and leaders of thought have brainwashed most of our people into believing that our type of government is something almost sacred and must be upheld and protected at all costs. This propaganda also has been successful in other parts of the world. Not long ago it was noticeable that, in throwing off the shackles of Communism, the peoples of Eastern Europe demanded democratic government as a top priority.������������
���� Nevertheless, we must never forget that democracy is not the type of government prescribed by Almighty God. Indeed, there is only one reference to democracy in the whole Scripture. You will recall that a number of Levites were elected by the princes and the congregation to protest to Moses about their living conditions. We read that 'the earth opened her mouth and swallowed them.' [11]
���� Through His prophets, God has made it abundantly clear that in any theocratic State the function of its leaders will not be to make worldly laws of their own, but wisely to administer the Law of Almighty God. That is what our Lord meant when explaining that His Kingdom (the Kingdom of God on Earth) was not of this world order [12], where kings and governors rule by their own laws.��
���� Our Lord also confirmed that He had not come to destroy the Law but to fulfill it [13]. Indeed, He imposed upon His followers the additional obligation to obey the spirit of the Law and not merely the letter [14]. By deceiving mankind into believing that the Divine Law was not part of the State, that man could, indeed, make his own laws, Satan scored a truly remarkable victory. This satanic deception of the Church has led to an almost unbelievable situation, depriving the Church of any interest in our responsibility to the Law. Preachers, Ministers, Evangelists, Elders, and Theologians have confined their attention to purely spiritual issues (because of their cowardance, which will keep them from entering into the Kingdom [15]) limiting their evangel to the Gospel of Personal Salvation. The Gospel of the Kingdom of God on earth either has been ignored or spiritualized into a vague, intangible kingdom that now exists in the hearts of men or in a spiritual zone somewhere above the clouds, remote from earth and humanity.
���� CUT ADRIFT FROM ITS ANCHOR THE CHURCH IS WITHOUT AN AUTHORITATIVE MESSAGE: Having cut loose from the anchor of Scripture, most of the Christian Church in this country now finds itself adrift and without an authoritative message either for its own communicants or for the uncommitted man and woman in the street. This rejection of sound Scriptural doctrine has had two unfortunate results: a modern church service can have as little relevance to Scripture as, say, a meeting of a friendly society, a situation which has prompted church leaders to join with other denominations to form a confederate church which will ultimately come under the influence of Judaism. One result of this drift from sound doctrine is a drastic fall in the number of communicants of most orthodox churches and a dramatic rise to some millions in the circulation of the magazines published by unorthodox churches who preach sound Scriptural doctrine in simple language.
���� Satan, the enemy of Christ, is certainly a subtle and efficient adversary, but what a terrible calamity to bring upon a people who, less than a century ago, were described as 'The People of the Book,' and were regarded as the greatest nation on earth! As one old enough to remember the declining years of that great age I can say, without doubt or hesitation, that the greatness of America was a reflection of the sterling character of her people. Indeed, it can be claimed, without fear of contradiction, that the men and women who answered the challenge of the Great War of 1914‑1918, be they from the United States or from the other Western Nations were of the finest generation our race has produced and, in the light of present trends, is ever likely to produce until that nation is cleansed.
���� They were certainly a 'People of the Book:' people of simple undoubting faith, reflected in their loyalty and patriotism; in their love of family and friends; in their consideration for the aged, the infirm and the underdog; and in their innate but unexpressed conviction that, as they belonged to the finest race upon the earth, their behavior should reflect what was, to them, a very serious responsibility. They would not do anything to 'let the country down.' They had respect for authority and they were blessed with a middle class of great probity and respon-sibility. Their thinking was influenced by intellectual giants of immense stature.
���� THEN ENTERED JUDAISM AND THE POWER OF DARKNESS WHICH HAVE SUPPRESSED THE UNIQUE AMERICAN CHARACTER: Through two world wars the Powers of Darkness have been able to break down the whole superstructure of social responsibility throughout the United States and to undermine the theology which gave birth to the great Protestant wakening of the sixteenth century. They have been able to entice the American people into the evil Babylonian financial system, but their greatest achievement has been to crush and suppress the unique character of the American People.
���� Working through the legal machinery of our Congress, the forces of evil have brought millions of aliens to this country. That is, people of other races, other cultures, other religions; people who are unable or unwilling to assimilate, as did the Huguenots and other European refugees who have enriched our society in times past. Although public opinion is alarmed by the ever‑growing threat of civil unrest, resulting from the massive foreign population already here (with more coming every moment), the government is faced with demands that we should offer full American citizenship to the entire population of these aliens.
���� The Devil's advocates talk glibly about the evil of racism in order to justify their policy of destroying or submerging one of the purest races on earth. They should be reminded that the different races of mankind were created purposefully by Almighty God and that there are many Scriptural references to refute the satanic deception that race‑mixing is good or even desirable. Christ's watchmen will have noticed that it is difficult to find another period in recorded history when the races of mankind have been so widely admixed and disturbed as in the period commencing with the World War of 1914‑1918. That movement still continues to disturb the political stability of the nations of the world and indicates that we are moving rapidly towards the Second Advent of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
���� As we look back over the last fifty years or more and compare the changes with the signs He predicted, it is not difficult to see that we are living in the Time of the End. The political, religious, meteorological and environmental changes are so vast that the Christian who has become aware of their significance is somewhat humbled and over‑awed by their extent. In such circumstances can we, as Christ's watchmen, do more than maintain a prayerful vigil?
���� Our Lord's prophetic description of the state of the world, immediately prior to His return, indicates that pre‑Advent conditions will be like those prevailing before the Flood. In His own words: people will continue 'eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage' [16], and we see very few will be aware of what is about to happen. We concerned Christians, and those throughout America so have been privileged to know what is soon to happen to this blind and sinful world, have a duty; much like that bestowed upon Luke to WAKE UP those around us to a knowledge of how the forces of evil have misled them, and to condition them to face the frightening events that will precede the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. In other words, we have a duty 'to make ready a people prepared for the Lord' [17].
���� CHRISTIANITY HAS ALL BUT BEEN DESTROYED BY THE ALTERNATIVE SERVICES BOOKS: A great deal can be done to open the eyes of the spiritually blind, and looking at just a few of the issues that should have our attention we might encourage our Christian friends to concentrate their efforts on revealing how their dignified, Scripturally oriented and inspiring liturgy was destroy by the (new Bible versions and the Anglican Church of England has been destroyed by the) 'Alternative Services Book.' In some churches they may be successful in having 'The Book of Common Prayer' restored to regular use (this was caused by the monetary and press pressure of the Jews). Individually one might befriend a lapsed Christian and, by demonstrating the subtle way in which the forces of darkness has corrupted his church, restore his faith in the inspired Word of God.
���� Notwithstanding the many pressures of vested interests, we are blessed in America with many patriotic publication that are relatively free and independent, and often expose public wrong or injustice brought to their notice. Therefore, those who write for these publications should also consider the far‑reaching effects of dealing with the spiritual aspects of the wrong or injustice they report. However, perhaps the greatest opportunity for bringing enlightenment is in helping the sick and needy, because those who find health and happiness through their obedience to the Divine Law will pass on the good news to others.
���� We must expect, and most certainly will receive, rebuffs from the worldly and the sophisticated for, as Paul discovered: 'The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God' [18]; but this should not discourage us from presenting our case for the veracity of Scripture to the educated and informed. Indeed, trained and disciplined minds can understand and appreciate the evidence of historical fact in the fulfillment of prophecy. Nevertheless, we must heed the warning of our Lord Jesus Christ and maintain a constant prayer vigil.
���� No one is permitted to know the precise time of His Coming but we do know from recent signs and events that it must now be very near. Although staggering in their extent and complexity, these signs and events are being brushed aside, ignored or dismissed as scientific nightmares. Very few people treat them seriously and only a tiny minority of Christians relate them to Scriptural prophecy or to the consequences of disobeying the Divine Law.
���� What is happening today is not merely without precedent; if present trends continue, all forms of animal life will eventually cease and earth will become a lifeless wilderness. But our Lord assures that this will not be allowed to happen: 'And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.' [19]
���� Another threat to human life is posed by the ever‑growing invasion of aliens into our country. For along with them comes diseases which we have not seen for decades; and they are raging unreported throughout the nation, because the evil ones are fearful that the people of America will drive the aliens out if they should become aware of the terrible toil America is paying for allowing them into our country.
���� HAVING REJECTED GOD WE CANNOT NOW FIND OUR WAY: It is because our people have rejected God that they seek a 'natural' explanation for these appalling calamities, and we cannot find a solution or an answer because we are spiritually asleep (lulled there by unfaithful liars and deceivers who come in Christ's name but are His enemies). It is a tragedy that we remain asleep even after a hurricane, tornado, flood or earthquake has struck; and thousands have lost everything, including many their lives. Christ has warned that political unrest among the nations with famines, disease and widespread earthquakes will precede His Return [20]. These disturbances are even now occurring in Europe, Africa, Russia in the Middle East, but not even a hurricane can wake up our people and cause them to recognize that something unusual is happening in the world.
�� In the meantime, and while we watch and pray, we should not willingly or knowingly participate in the evil systems which now flourish and which will be destroyed in the run‑up to the Kingdom. Those who find this summary disturbing or frightening should note the words of Almighty God, directed to His servants in this land: 'Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.'" [21]
���� By strict definition, thunder is the sound made by the sudden heating and expansion of air due to an electrical discharge. Usually that discharge is the result of storm clouds which become negatively charged interacting with the earth which is positively charged.
���� When the cloud transfers its excess negative charge to the earth, the resulting light is lightning, and the resulting sound is thunder.
���� We see the lightning before we hear the thunder. We see the lightning before we hear the thunder because light travels faster than sound.
���� But the dictionary also defines thunder as "a threatening, menacing, or extremely vehement utterance."
���� Isaiah wrote: "Thou shalt be visited of the Lord of hosts with thunder, and with earthquake, and great noise, with storm and tempest, and the flame of devouring fire." [22]
���� It is to our nation's hurt that we fail to recognize what is reported in the news, whether it be storms of political conflict and unrest, or physical storms battering our land, as being warning signs sent by God.
���� The 25th chapter of Jeremiah really points to the end of the age. In verses 30-33, Jeremiah writes: "The Lord shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth. A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth. And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth..." [23]
���� The Hebrew word translated "coasts" in this passage is "Yerekah" and it means "the flank," the side, border, coast. But Jeremiah speaks of a "great whirlwind" referring to conflict and war. That certainly can and will happen in America. Isaiah 21:1 also speaks of a great "whirlwind" saying: "As whirlwinds in the south pass through; so it cometh from the desert, from a terrible land."
���� This made many to think of the Persian Gulf War which was staged from the desert of Saudi (Southern) Arabia and was called "Operation Desert Storm." That, too, seemingly died down. However, Lt. General Hussein Kamel al-Mujid, who was not only head of Iraq's secret weapon's program but also Saddam Hussein's son-in-law, defected to Jordan on August 8th.
���� Since then, he had informed the Western media that Saddam planned to invade Kuwait and Saudi Arabia in August but that it was called off due to his defection. In addition to this, he said that Iraq was within three months of testing an atomic bomb when the U.S. under George Bush's leadership launched the effort to stop him. [24]
���� While both South Africa and the Persian Gulf have quieted down, we would like to point out that the former Yugoslavia (which means south-Slavia) has been another seemingly out-of-the-way coastal region from whence a great whirlwind can come.
���� In its position on the coasts (or flanks) of the old Roman world, the Balkans continue to be a crossroads of different religions and races. Thus, when trouble develops there, it often draws into the fray those other religions and races.
���� Such was the case in 1914 when events there led to World War I. In turn, that led to the passing of the old monarchies of Europe bringing about the rise of Hitler's Germany and, of course, Soviet Russia under control of the Zionists. In it all, the nations of the world are being aligned for what will become the Day of the Lord, which will culminate in the return of Jesus Christ as King of kings and Lord of lords.
���� The Bible says the nations will be gathered together into a place called Armageddon. This does not just mean the actual valley in Palestine where many great conclusive battles have taken place, but it refers to a place in time, a state of affairs where the evil nations and leaders of the world, and the spiritual forces behind them, will have become ripe for judgment. When that hour strikes, a voice from the throne of God will exclaim, "It is done."
���� Next we are told: "And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great." [25]
���� We have been surprised that events in Bosnia, as well as in the Middle East and South Africa, have continually died down just before reaching the boiling point.
���� In it all the Lord has been holding back the winds of conflict, while those who are to come to a saving knowledge of Him are sealed in faith.
���� At the same time, the wickedness of man, which is to come under Divine judgment, is being allowed to come to fruition and made fully evident for all to see.
���� Those who think we as a nation are above or immune to the savage killings and problems we see on TV do not consider that what is preventing such conflicts from occurring here is the Lord's continual intercession for His Israel People, as God is allowing a period of grace for our nation to repent of its present sins.
���� When the time comes for God to take action, the grace of Jesus Christ will be withdrawn, with the result that it will unleash the evil passions now held in check by God's grace. The result will be that mankind, now believing it is approaching a One World Order based on new-age type religion is, will be forced to see the true nature of the human heart apart from Jesus Christ. Isaiah told us: "For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain." [26]
���� The events in Bosnia are only a microcosm of what the world at large is facing. No wonder Jesus said, "except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved." [27]
���� In this, and numerous other political, economic and social problems confronting our nation, we are hearing distant thunders from a gathering storm. But perhaps the greatest problem today is the apathy of Christians who hear the thunder but not really do nothing about it. But what can one do about thunder?
���� Thunder also refers to weighty decrees bringing about far-reaching effects. Of the Lord's throne, John in Revelation declares: "And out of the throne proceeded lightnings and thunderings and voices." [28]
���� We have at our disposal, by prayer, a Sovereign Lord who desires His people to call upon Him for help - help which He can only give once we are willing to seek Him. That is what we can do about the thunder we hear.
���� At the time of the prophet Elijah's greatest discouragement, when he was being pursued by Jezebel following what seemed to be a conclusive victory over the priests of Baal, Elijah had an encounter with Jesus Christ during which the Lord passed by Elijah. First came a strong wind (whirlwind), then an earthquake, and finally a fire. But in all three, the Lord was not really present in them. Finally, Elijah heard a "still small voice." The account states: "And it was so, when Elijah heard it that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave..." [29]
���� Jesus Christ does not really desire to reveal Himself in fearful tempest, earthquake and fire. Rather, He desires the still small voice of live, nevertheless a love that still oversees righteous judgment upon sin.
���� The truly grievous aspect of the whirlwind coming upon the modern-day House of Israel is that the reason it is coming is because people have become so tuned in to the world, that they have forsaken the still small voice of God.
���� In so doing, we lose our compass, and go adrift into the sea of apathy and sin. Thus, to regain His people's attention, God must call for a storm of judgment which is first signalled by distant thunders. Such is what we are hearing now.
���� In the oldest book of the Bible, Job, the Lord spoke to Job out of the whirlwind (again reflecting a storm) following Job's time of trial and testing instigated by the Devil.
���� The Lord asked Job: "Hast thou an arm like God? or canst thou thunder with a voice like him?" [30]
���� At this time Job's friend Elihu exclaimed: "His thunderings speak (awesomely) concerning Him; the cattle are told of His coming storm. Indeed, (at His thunderings) my heart also trembles and leaps out of its place. Hear, oh, hear the roar of His voice and the sound of rumbling that goes out of His mouth!" [31]
���� Yet Elihu, who was trying to convince Job that God had a purpose in the trials Job was experiencing, also reasoned: "Touching the Almighty, we cannot find him out: he is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: he will not afflict." [32]
���� The same storm which may destroy can also cleanse, and there is often a newness after a heavy rain; while the same wind which rends asunder can also displace oppressive humid air with a refreshing breeze.
���� As the rumblings of distant thunder draw closer, let us consider it not just a warning of judgment, but also a sign of a coming change as God moves to cleanse our nation and prepare it for the great era of blessing and glory soon to come: "God thundereth marvelously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend." [33]
���� Here we believe you should be made aware of something the Judeo-Christian preachers will never tell you.
���� The Never-Ending Last Days? "These are the last days" cries a radio preacher who calls himself a prophet of God; so read numerous newsletters and religious publications; so teaches the television evangelist with a book on prophecy for sale; so say and think concerned citizens throughout the land. So has it been said for 2000 years!
���� As the Scriptures say, there is nothing new under the sun and so it is with men and their last days theology. Gary DeMar in his book "Last Days Madness," which shows the list of such men is long and dated, going back as early as the second and third centuries. For example, there was Montanus, a self appointed prophet of God predicting the end.
���� "In the third century, a prophet called Novatian gathered a huge following by crying, 'Come, Lord Jesus!' Donatus, a fourth-century prophet, commanded attention when he stressed that only 144,000 people would be chosen by God. He found this magic figure in Revelation 14:1 (a verse which the Jehovah's Witnesses use to proclaim their own version of his heresy). Both Novatian and Donatus were branded as heretics by the Church." [34]
���� Martin Luther wrote in 1532: "The last days is at hand. My calendar has run out. I know nothing more in my Scriptures." [35] As the year 1000 A.D. drew near, the old St. Peter's basilica was thronged with weeping, trembling masses awaiting the end of the world. Then there was a similar conviction in 1100, 1200 and 1245.
�� "In 1531, Melchior Hofmann announced that the second coming would take place in the year 1533...Nicholas Casa held that the world would not last past 1734." [36]
���� The list of present day "last days proclaimers," if properly researched and compiled, would probably be staggering.
���� Here are just a few: Edgar C. Whisent put out a book, "88 Reasons Why the Rapture is in 1988."
���� In 1992, Charles R. Taylor in "Bible Prophecy News" said: "What are you starting to read probably is my final issue of Bible Prophecy News, for Bible prophecy fulfillment indicates that Jesus Christ our Lord will most likely return for us at the Rapture of the Church before the fall of 1992 issue can be printed."
���� "1994?" was a writing by Harold Camping predicting Jesus would return sometime in the fall of 1994. David Allen Lewish wrote a book "Prophecy 2000: Rushing to Armageddon." Dave Hunt wrote "Peace and the Rise of Antichrist." Also, let's not forget Hal Lindsey's most profitable book "The Late Great Planet Earth" with a sale of 25,000,000 copies.
���� But What Does the Bible Teach Concerning the Last Days?: If that question was properly answered, the last days proclaimers wouldn't sell many books or reap much in donations to stay on the airwaves. Last Days existed 2000 years ago, according to the Bible. Consider the words of Hebrews 1:1-2: "God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his son..." (KJV)
���� Following are some Bible questions for you. According to Hebrews 1:1-2, the writer of Hebrews considered the last days to be:
�� a). Something coming in the distant���������������� future (like 2000 A.D.)
�� b). The very last days in which he wrote����������� the words "hath in these last days."
�� c). Impossible to understand and predict���������� without reading a book on prophecy or�������� hearing a self proclaimed prophet.
���� Let's consider another Bible passage: "But Peter, taking his stand with the eleven, raised his voice and declared to them; 'Men of Judea, and all you who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give heed to my words. For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the third hour of the day; but this is what was spoken of through the prophet Joel; 'And it shall be in the last days, God says, That I will pour forth of My Spirit upon all mankind; And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions And your old men shall dream dreams...'" [37]
���� Now, let's have another Bible test question. According to Acts 2:14-17, the apostle Peter considered the very day he spoke to be those days that Joel had prophesied of and called last days.
�� a). True
�� b). False
�� c). Impossible to tell from the text.
���� The correct answers to these two questions are self evident just as it's self evident these two Scriptural passages teach the last days existed nearly 2000 years ago! @ Timothy 3:1 reads: "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come." (KJV) 2 Peter 3:3 also seems to indicate the last days as something in the future: "knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts." (KJV) How can it be that last days existed at the time of the writing of Hebrews 1:1-2, and Acts 2:17 and yet also be days yet to come in the future? The answer to that comes in understanding the Bible meaning of last days.
���� As a rule, when men use the term last days, they think in terms of the end of the world. Billy Graham, for example, wrote: "If you look in any direction, whether it is technological or physiological, the world as we know it is coming to an end. Scientists predict it, sociologists talk about it. Whether you go to the Soviet Union or anywhere in the world, they are talking about it. The world is living in a state of shock." [38]
���� The Bible term, "last days," does not carry this meaning. That is why the last days could be at one time and then another. To prove that the Bible meaning of last days is not the end of the world, let's look at how the term is used in an Old Testament Bible passage, Ezekiel chapter 38. It's a controversial passage dealing with the invasion by Gog. We'll not deal with the who, what, where, why of the invasion or if it's already happened, but with the when. Verse 16 tells us when. "It will come about in the last days that I shall bring you against my land." So then what happens? Does the world end?
���� Reading in chapter 38 & 39 concerning that invasion and conflict, one learns how it concludes and that the world continues on. Verse 22 of Ezekiel 39 says "And the house of Israel will know that I am the Lord their God from that day onward." Note the words "from that day onward," showing us the world did not end in the last days of Ezekiel 38.
���� Once one understands that the Bible term, last days does not mean the end of the world, that the last days existed nearly 2000 years ago, and would exist some time in the future, then one can move on to another important Bible truth concerning last days.
���� There Are More Than One Last Days: In other words, there have been last days and there will be last days. If the phrase "last days" does not mean the end of the world, then what does it mean the end of? How about the end of an era or age! Hebrews 6:5 speaks of an "age to come." If an age is to come, then that means an age will end prior to the coming of a new age; so there would be last days of an age! 1 Corinthians 10:11 says, "Now these things happened unto them by way of example and they were written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the ages are come." (NASV)
���� The King James Version uses the word "world" instead of "ages." "Upon whom the ends of the world are come." The Greek word is "aion" and according to "Holman's Exhaustive Concordance," means "continued duration, a space of time, an age." This passage clearly teaches there are ages and the end of ages had come upon those people living in Corinth, 2000 years ago. It's unfortunate that this word is usually translated as world in the King James translation as in most instances it is far more accurate to translate it as "age."
���� Take for example Hebrews 9:26. The King James says: "For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself." The New American Standard says, "...but now once at the consummation of the ages He has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself." Young's Literal Translation says, "...at the full end of the ages..."
���� Noah lived in the last days, i.e., the end of an age. They were last days for people to repent and be saved from destruction. Last days of an age wherein wickedness and sin had culminated.
���� Moses lived in the last days: or in an end of an age. We have heard the phrase "last days of the Roman Empire." Well Moses lived in the last days of Pharaoh's Egyptian Empire. They were the last days for innumerable first born male children.
���� The apostles and their disciples lived in the last days: Just as Peter stated in Acts 2:16-17. Days just prior to the destruction of Jerusalem which ended the age of the old Levitical Priesthood and temple sacrifices. It was not only the end of an age but the "consummation of the ages." [39]
���� Many New Testament Scriptures pertain to the end of that age or the last days that existed 2000 years ago. John the Baptist warned the establishment of his day (Pharisees and Sadducees) of the end by saying, "And the axe is already laid at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire." [40]
���� A Most Important Point Concerning Last Days: So far, you have read some very important truths concerning the subject of last days. Let's briefly summarize them.
1). Men have been crying out and warning������� that we are in the last days for nearly���������� 2000 years.
2). Last days existed 2000 years ago and����������� were to exist in the future. How can this������ be? Because...
3). There are more than one last days.
4). Last days means the end of an age not�������� the end of the world!
���� These are important truths to understand but more important is this: PEOPLE SURVIVED THE LAST DAYS. You see not only did Noah live in the last days, but he lived beyond them as well. Moses and his people lived in the last days and beyond. The apostle's and the disciples lived in the last days and beyond. These people were not just SURVIVORS but OVERCOMERS and CONQUERORS! People of faith and hope.
���� The damnable consequence of this false modern day, (Jew)deo-Christian LAST DAYS THEOLOGY is it conquers and defeats the Christian soldiers who, themselves, should be more than conquerors. Victors taking dominion, overcoming the world through faith, hope, and love. It causes people to wring their hands in despair, believing things will get progressively worse in almost every area of life until Jesus returns with His angels.
���� One writer described the effect as, "Preoccupation with the end can act as a cultural sedative, leaving the world to its own inescapable eschatological certainties, giving man little impetus to effect change beyond his own isolated individualistic world. While society collapses, the population grows in its despair and joins 'the cult of expanded consciousness, health and personal 'growth' so prevalent today.' If the end is perceived as just around the corner, then why bother? 'Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die." [41]
���� The Most Important Point Concerning Last Days: The most important point concerning the "last days" is how not to let them be your's or your family's last days. In other words, how to survive, overcome and be victorious.
���� A Wake-up Call to the Lord's Covenant People: "Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him." [42] This is a call to the people of Western Christendom who are the seed of Abraham, with whom God made an unconditional Covenant of Promise. The Covenant began when the Lord called Abram out of Ur of the Chaldees in Asia Minor about 2,000 B.C.
���� Now, in these last days of the 20th Century, the heirs of the Covenant Promises are being called again to fulfill their role as God's set apart, Servant People. Therefore, it is imperative that they awaken to their singular responsibility as His Chosen People: "For thou art an holy people unto the Lord thy God, and the Lord hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all the nations that are upon the earth." [43]
���� The Lord had told Abram to leave his father's house, his kindred and his country to go to another land, that He would show him: "And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." [44]
���� God changed Abram's name to "Abraham," meaning, "Father of many nations," and He changed his wife Sarai's name to "Sarah," meaning "mother of nations, kings of people (kings of nations, R.V.) shall be of her.": "And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her: yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her." [45]����������� Then God said: "And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him." [46] Here, a distinction of great significance was made regarding the various descendants of Abraham. To this day, high caste Brahmans of India, Arabs and other Eastern peoples trace their lineage to Abraham.
���� In our Lord's day, even the Idumean Jews who opposed Him could claim Abraham as their father. So the seed of Abraham are many. But only those who are descended through Isaac are "the seed of promise." This exclusive consideration for the posterity of Isaac was first recorded: "And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; FOR IN ISAAC SHALL THY SEED BE CALLED." [47]
���� No man-made contract could ever equal the Lord's Covenant with Abraham's descendants. It was confirmed in Isaac, "the seed of promise," and reaffirmed in Isaac's son Jacob. Jacob, whose name means "supplanter," for he had supplanted his brother, Esau, was given a new name, ISRAEL, meaning, "man, a Prince or Ruler with God."
���� The awesome significance of their new name, ISRAEL, became manifest when the twelve tribes were formed into a nation at Mount Sinai. Moses went up unto God and the Lord called unto him out of the mountain, saying: "And Moses went up unto God, and the Lord called unto him out of the mountain, saying, Thus shalt thou say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel; Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles' wings, and brought you unto myself. Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine: And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel." [48]
���� Indeed, it was a most momentous day in the history of mankind when the children of Israel became the nucleus of the Kingdom of God on earth. It is a thousand pities that a broad cross section of church theology has dismissed the whole story of Jacob/Israel as simply an allegory.
���� Thus, the historical reality of the entire message of the Prophets concerning the Kingdom of God is done away with. But the testimony of the Lord God asserts that the message of Moses and the Prophets, and the message that Jesus commanded His Apostles to give, are one and the same: "And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom..." [49]
���� Summoning His twelve Apostles, Jesus sent them forth, and commanded them, saying: "These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand (in your midst)." [50]
���� "And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city." [51] It would appear that Jesus' command was actually directed to His Witnesses in these last days. This is made clear by His statement: "But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come." [52] But, unfortunately todays Judeo-Christian ministers, when giving prophecy credence at all, is "spiritualized." This is especially true when addressed to a people or nation called Israel. Such prophecies are said to refer to a spiritual body called the church.
���� Despite this patent absurdity, this dogmatic explanation is generally accepted in many mainline Judeo-Christian churches. It provides a convenient way around the dilemma confronting those who must otherwise look for Israel's prophetic destiny in Jewry who claim to be Yehudim; i.e., "of Judah" - a claim broadened to represent the whole House of Israel. However, it must be evident to those willing to search the records that nowhere in the history of the Jews can any circumstances be found that fulfill the great national expansion of peoples and territories promised to the House of Israel! Thus, because of their blindness, the Lord God castigates the shepherds who fail to feed His sheep: "Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain..." [53]; "Neither did my shepherds search for my flock...Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock...For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I, even I, will both search (for) my sheep, and seek them out...And I will set up one shepherd over them...and he shall be their shepherd. And I the LORD will be their God, and my servant David a prince among them... Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them, and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, saith the Lord God." [54]
���� All Christians are familiar with the words of the Angel Gabriel to Mary: "And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end." [55]
���� The Lord's Prayer is accepted widely in public and private worship throughout Western Christendom. Yet many give only lip service to His Second Coming. Few anticipate Jesus' actual return to occupy the Throne of David in an earthly Kingdom. Where, then, is the Kingdom for which our Lord taught us to pray: "Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven." [56]
���� The author of "The Reformation of Israel in the West" [57] finds the answer in the prolific research of a host of Bible and secular scholars of the past century. He cites the findings of renowned historians who have contributed to the history of Israel's trek to the West. He traces the so-called "Lost Tribes" out of Assyria and Media, where the historian Josephus and the Prophet Esdras in the Apocrypha place the Children of Israel, to the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic and kindred peoples in the world today.
���� The Lord addresses Israel "in the isles and from far" [58]. They are settled in the sanctuary where the Prophet Nathan declared the people and the Throne of David would come to rest: "Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as beforetime." [59] "The appointed place" could not refer to the land of Canaan (Palestine), for, when the Prophet Nathan was speaking, Israel was ALREADY dwelling there. Further-more, advance outposts were taking possession of the new lands where, later, many of the tribes would come to occupy. The House of Israel NEVER HAS AND NEVER WILL RETURN TO PALESTINE! The tribes moved out of Assyria across Europe to settle the north and west coastlands and began to gather in the Isles. The Isles of Britain were not to be the sum total of Israel's final resting place.
���� The House of Joseph, who was given the Birthright [60], was in the vanguard of all the tribes of Israel in the great expansion westward: "Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall." [61] The Prophet Jeremiah foretold that Israel would find grace (God's Blessings) in the wilderness: "Thus saith the Lord, The people which were left of the sword found grace in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest." [62]
���� First, the descendants of Joseph, followed by a great aggregation of all the tribes, began to move westward to inherit all of the lands reserved for Israel. "Ephraim feedeth on wind, and followeth after the east wind: he daily increaseth lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt." [63]
���� These included the vast "desolate (undeveloped) heritages" of North America: "Thus saith the Lord, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages." [64]
���� On a global map, two lines project from Palestine, one to the north and the other to the west, will intersect in the Pacific Ocean midpoint between North America and the Hawaiian Islands. "And, lo, these from the north and the west" [65] are found today where the Prophet Isaiah indicated they would be. Within the bounds of this vast area we find the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, Celtic and kindred peoples of Western Christendom.
���� The correlation of prophecy and history has confirmed that the United States of America and the British Commonwealth of Nations are the "nation and company of nations" promised to the House of Joseph: "And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations." [66]
���� Their preeminence among the nations is evidence of the singular Birthright given to Joseph [67] and, moreover, that, upon Joseph's sons, the Patriarch Israel conferred his very name: "The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth." [68] The Lord God of Abraham and Isaac told Jacob that his seed would multiply in the earth to become a blessing to all people: "And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shalt spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed." [69]
���� The House of Israel's great role as the Lord's Servant People would eventually become manifest when the Kingdom of Israel (the House of Jacob) became the nucleus of the Kingdom of God on earth. Particularly relevant is the awakening of the United States of America and the British Commonwealth of Nations. The realization that the Anglo-Saxon Israel nations of Western Christendom are God's Kingdom People is the key to understanding the whole testimony of the Scripture, the Law and the Prophets. Moreover, it is the key to understanding Jesus' Gospel of the Kingdom.
���� Since the latter half of the 19th Century, at the very climax of the Church Age, a great many among the clergy as well as lay members were able to see the literal, historical reality of the Gospel of the Kingdom. But a great falling away beset the Christian Church in the disappointment engendered by the premature expectations of the Second Advent movement. In the deepening apostasy, assaults upon the Bible by Higher Criticism caused many to doubt the message of the Prophets and even the divinity of the historical Jesus. A major casualty of the denigration of the Word was the revelation of the Identity of the Kingdom people and the royal House of David.
���� Although many who have caught a vision of the Kingdom Truth persevered in the Witness, the generation that followed reverted to the former blindness of church dogma, or were inured in unbelief. Theological orthodoxy still remains in blind opposition of these fundamental Kingdom Truths. And the Lord's indictment of the Pharisees of His day is now addressed to the Judeo-Christian leaders of today: "Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered." [70]
���� For this and many other reasons we must mourn the passing of America? We must join remnant Christians throughout the Republic who sense that our nation, like the great Titanic, is going down fast! The hearts of genuine, Patriotic Christians cry in despair as they witness the impending political, economic, moral and spiritual demise of the Titan among nations. No nation in history has risen to such greatness only to decline and fall so quickly. Like a flaming meteor falling from the sky, America is plunging into the black night of moral and spiritual bankruptcy.
���� As the spiritual and moral fiber of this nation falls apart, there is a corresponding decline in the political, economic and social fortunes. The fall of America invites comparison with the great RMS Titanic, a giant ocean liner that sank in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on April 14, 1912.
���� The "unsinkable" Titanic had said from Liverpool, England, on April 10th and was making its maiden voyage across the Atlantic, bound for America. This giant luxury vessel, loaded with wealthy and noble people, was known as the unsinkable ship. People joked that not even God Himself could sink it. The sinking of America, the Titan among nations, is taking place before our very eyes. The circumstances involving the Titanic in 1912 are worthy of careful examination. As America plunges into the dark waters of moral and spiritual wickedness and our political and economic fortunes go to the bottom, we are taking a similar course to that of the great ship Titanic.
���� The Titanic was nearly as long as three football fields, 882.5 feet, and was designed to be unsinkable. With her hull divided into sixteen water-tight compartments, she would float unless five of them were punctured and flooded. She was ninety-six feet wide and had a height of ninety-seven feet, and could accommodate 2,500 passengers and 860 crew members. The designers guaranteed it to be unsinkable and were irate when the Cunard Line placed enough lifeboats on it to take care of 950 passengers.
���� The 2,027 passengers and crew members steamed away from Liverpool on April 10, 1912, confident and convinced that aboard this unsinkable ship they did not have a care in the world! Such is now the case with millions of people in America. They live believing that America is the unsinkable Titan among nations. Little do they know that the Republic of the United States of America has already sunk and now the so-called "Democracy" is headed to the bottom of the ocean of nations.
���� The Titanic was a floating, luxurious, materialistic hotel. Wealthy Americans and the leisure class from Europe and the United Kingdom boarded the ship for its maiden voyage across the Atlantic. Late on Sunday night, April 14th, its crew received a warning on the wireless telegraph: "Be advised of icebergs and take precautions." The captain and crew paid no attention and proceeded full steam ahead.
���� America has been receiving warning signals for many years, but no one seems to be listening or responding. Our politicians are bent on pillage and plunder. The clergy preach for hire, the fathers are bent on drunkenness, gambling, lust, and the pleasures of sin. Like the crew and passengers aboard the Titanic, no one seems to care. The warnings of the icebergs in the shipping lanes went unheeded, and the speed of the Titanic was increased. Forty minutes later the ship hit a massive iceberg and began taking on water. The unthinkable began to happen! The final two hours and thirty-five minutes for 2,027 crew and passengers were fleeting and filled with panic, despair and agony.
���� In such a fashion America has been in the process of "going down" for many years. The twentieth century has witnessed the total unravelling of the moral and spiritual fabric of our nation. The Biblical and Christian moral standards that catapulted America into being the Titan of nations have been dismantled, and we have plunged into a black night of immorality and spiritual darkness that knows no equal. The unsinkable Titan among nations has been going towards the bottom throughout the twentieth century. Warning cries from True God-fearing prophets and patriots are silenced by the roar of those seeking to enshrine Satan and the god of humanism - the worship of the Jews as the new hope for America.
���� We murder our children in abortion clinics by legal injection at the average rate of 4,500 per day. Crimes of murder, rape and violence proliferate right through the land. People steal, lie, cheat, pillage and plunder each other as a way of life. Profanity, pornography, drugs, alcohol, addiction to sex and rock music have ripped the spiritual soul from America. God, the Holy Bible and the Ten Commandments have been buried beneath the avalanche of humanism that now pours into every cell of the American body. The Titan of nations is moving towards a colossal iceberg, and few seem to hear the warning.
���� People aboard the Titanic hardly knew that the ship had struck an iceberg; on that late night they were drinking, dancing, playing cards, and lost amid the pleasures of life. They were secure in their world of make-believe. They were all passengers on an unsinkable ship; what did they have to fear? People living in contemporary America are pretty much like those folks. A great majority of American people, busy with the cares and pleasures of life, are oblivious to the demise of their country. They are obsessed with the gods of sport, television, sensuality, materialism and money. They have not considered the awesome dangers that lie ahead.
���� When news that they had hit an iceberg and were taking on water reached the passengers, they responded in different ways. Some of them grumbled in their sleep and kept on sleeping. Many who were dancing and drinking continued their pleasure without concern, not even bothering to strap on the life-jackets. Most of the passengers did not really believe that they were in imminent danger. After all, not even God could sink the great Titanic.
���� Does this not perfectly describe the American people in this hour of national crisis? Few people believe we are in mortal danger as a nation. Few are looking for a lifeboat. We are so confident and certain that America will last forever. How could anything ever take America down? After all: IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE!
���� In the final two and one-half hours that the Titanic remained afloat, there were incredible developments aboard ship, which was taking on water fast. With only a limited number of lifeboats, the women and children were lowered into small boats and tossed out in them into the icy water. Officers pulled out guns in an attempt to keep men and ship employees from getting on the boats. People began to panic.
��� �Some of the passengers were intoxicated from a long night of drinking. Others continued to dance, unwilling to believe the ship was going down. Instead of going to the lifeboats, many of the passengers returned to their rooms to gather up all of their belongings. Many of these perished when the ship went down. The story is told about one person who went about scooping up the valuables people had left behind, filling his pockets with money and jewelry. He then leaped over the side to get into a lifeboat and sank like a rock, the weight of his treasure pulling him to the bottom.
���� On that fateful night, 1,726 people perished aboard the Titanic. When the ship went down the band was playing "Nearer My God To Thee." The great boilers of the ship had exploded, and it was filling with water, and the people crowded together on the portion that was still above the water. Finally, the last major wave dashed over the ship, and the waves of the icy Atlantic devoured them all. The great unsinkable liner was buried at sea. It became the tomb for more than seventeen hundred people who were unable to get on lifeboats.
���� Captain Edward J. Smith, skipper of the ship, had failed to act. Crew members had failed to respond to the warning. Are the elected leaders of America responding to the warnings being sounded in America? Where are the ministers and the fathers? Will someone please stand up and sound the alarm?
���� Yes! America is a sinking Titanic! God who gave birth to this nation has set forth the warnings! In the Bible He sets forth the life and death message for nations. America is no exception. We began our maiden voyage as a nation with a firm belief in Jesus Christ and the inerrancy of the Bible. Our faith as a nation rested in God and the Bible. The Ten Commandments were the hallmark of our moral and spiritual lives. America was founded and settled by Christian men and women who walked in covenant with their God. Jesus Christ and Scripture were the focus of their lives. The courts, legislative halls, university classrooms and market places resounded with Biblical principles of God and morality. Honesty, trust and self-government were common; America was a Bible-believing, blood-washed, spirit-filled, law-keeping nation.
���� The warning signs are all present: America has hit an iceberg! We have discarded God and Scripture for the gods of human reason, pleasure and sin. Our national idols are displayed on billboards across the nation.
���� Sensuality, alcohol, nakedness and immorality have become the standard of behavior for the American public. Broken marriage vows, shattered homes, fatherless children, divorced women and the carnage of human suffering make America look like a war zone. The glory cloud of greatness has been lifted. Our country is in dire peril. The signs of danger are manifest on every hand. In the midst of this chaos few souls are looking for a lifeboat.
���� In this late hour politics cannot save us. Democrats and Republicans have demonstrated no ability or will to guide America out of the dangers which now face us. Education cannot save us. Our educational institutions reek with the foul order of humanism and race mixing. Our public schools are the laughing stock of the civilized world. Many high school graduates have difficulty reading the writing on their own diplomas. Our Pastors, Priests, Ministers have not told us the truth nor warned our people: "If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them. And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it" [71]
���� Money cannot save us. We have spent ourselves into oblivion, trying to buy our way out of trouble. With a public debt of four trillion dollars or more, we are choking to death on debt! The interest paid to the International Jewish Bankers on our national debt will soon render America financially insolvent. The primary task of elected officials of government will be to preside over our bankruptcy proceedings. Like the Titanic of history, America is going down! The ship is sinking! What can we do?
���� Our ONLY HOPE in this late hour is to recognize the urgent need for a time of deep, penetrating, national repentance. It necessarily must include every level of government, all institutional churches, and the people of every community and village in America. To fully implement God's Holy Word is our only hope. Thus: "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." [72]
���� Note carefully the order in which we must move.
���� First: His people (Israel - the White Race, not the colored) who are called by His name, must humble themselves in sackcloth and ashes. This means no more covering of sin. Confession of sin in heartfelt repentance is critical if America is to be saved.
���� Secondly, they must pray and return to the Eternal God as the only answer to our national problem. They must enter intercessory prayer. Prayers must be offered that reach to the very heart and throne of God.
���� Thirdly, they must seek His face. This means they must enter into a time of fasting and supplication, a time of sorrow and mourning for the sins committed in this land. They must fast and pry until the face of God is turned towards them.
���� Fourthly, and there is urgent need for this; we must turn from our wicked ways. The first three steps in that injunction from God our Father will be ineffective if we do not turn from sin.
���� Immediate steps must be taken to accomplish this. The process will be simple. Our leaders need only open the Bible and implement God's Laws on abortion, murder, rape, sodomy, pornography, adultery, fornication, witchcraft, and all other crimes set forth in God's Word.
���� A national education program of Bible Law should be mandatory for all Americans. Television networks, churches and other means of public communication need to teach the populace the knowledge of Bible Law. Television networks and the movies should no longer be able to display any program that violates Biblical principles of morality. The death penalty needs to be carried out upon all convicted persons who violate laws considered to be capital crimes in Scripture.
���� If the fathers, ministers and civil leaders in America fail to bring America to repentance, the Titan of nations will sink. The waves of immorality are beginning to wash over her deck. Most people are oblivious to the inevitable. The ship is sinking and hardly anyone moves! May the Christian Israel Remnant lift their voices to heaven and upon bent knee cry out to the living God for a lifeboat. They that have the Commandments of God and keep the Faith of Jesus Christ are in that lifeboat. Come and join them; the hour is late!!!!!
���� We should always remember that we will not lose our freedoms at 3 a.m. when there is a knock on the door and we open it to a man in a black Ninja Suit, with a hood covering his face with an automatic weapon in his harms, who says: "Come with me to the concentration camp." We will lose it when people like you and I see things which are wrong in our local government, our schools, and our churches, and turn back to the TV saying: "I'm just an individual, you know, and everyone knows that you can't buck city hall." When enough of us fee that way, we will hold the funeral for freedom. We will take her to the cemetery and bury her, and over her grave erect a headstone with this epitaph: "America died! Because our Christian people didn't want to be bothered!"
