I Come as A Thief
A man cannot be a chiropodist and trim the corns of people without passing an examination to prove that he is competent to do so; but any fool can be a legislator, and a lot of fools do become that: and consequently our laws are the products of unskilled labor, as a rule. But in trying to draft a statute, it is not too difficult to word it so that anybody who is trying in good faith to understand it, can understand what it means. The big problem is to word it so that somebody who is trying in bad fath to misunderstand it, can�t do so.
We have a somewhat similar problem, perhaps, with the Bible. Some have been coming to various Christian meetings for years and haven�t had any great difficulty in understanding what the Bible has to say on these tings. But somehow, no matter how plainly the Bible states it, it is always possible for some little sect of the Judeo-Christian variety to completely misinterpret it and make that a principal doctrine, and off they go.
Today, most of our major Judeo-Christian churches don�t really believe in the return of Jesus Christ; they don�t require their ordained ministers to claim that they believe that Christ is actually coming back. And even those who do believe in it, can get some surprising differences of doctrine on that subject. Now, as to what the return of Christ will be like, there is a good deal in the Bible, and it seems to be pretty clear, but we want you to see what some of them have done with it.
Confusion has arisen because, in Revelation 16:15, Christ says: �Behold, I come as a thief.� When a thief (or as we would call him in modern language, a burglar) breaks into your house and steals something, ordinarily you don�t catch him in the act; he gets away without your seeing him. So from this they say, �Well, Christ is coming back and nobody will know that He is here or has been here.�
From the words, �Behold, I come as a thief,� there is the inference of course; the obvious inference, that His coming will not be observed in sufficient time. But that is very different thing from saying that He is going to come and go, and nobody will know that He has been here. He will come as a thief. Now if somebody tells you that a thief can stand in front of you and you can look right through him and not see him, because he is invisible, you wouldn�t be fooled by that a minute. And yet that is about what some of these Judeo-Christian churches teach, as to the return of Christ.
Some of them also have claimed that there will be, not only a second coming of Christ, but even a third. They say He really is coming the fist time just to collect His church, His elect, resurrecting some of the dead and translating some of the living; and then Christ and His church are going to flee from the world and leave Satan in triumphant possession of the earth for three and a half years.
You might get that out of the telephone book or out of some fiction or something of that sort, but you can�t get it out of the Bible; not if you read it honestly. They know the Bible says that when He comes back, He is going to collect those who are worthy of it, the elect, and He is also going to judge the whole world. But they say these are two separate and distinct times.
There are even those, in their non-belief, who say, �Oh, He has already been here and gotten His elect.� When they say this, they are confessing that they, themselves, are not of the elect, because they are still around, and they can not point to any sudden and mysterious disappearances of some of their church congregation either. So apparently nobody in that group was Christ�s and didn�t make it.
2 Peter 3:3‑7: �Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.
For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. THE LORD IS NOT SLACK CONCERNING HIS PROMISE, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us‑ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. � BUT THE DAY OF THE LORD WILL COME as a thief in the night; in the which THE HEAVENS SHALL PASS AWAY WITH A GREAT NOISE, AND THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH ALSO AND THE WORKS THAT ARE THEREIN SHALL BE BURNED UP. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of THE DAY OF GOD, WHEREIN THE HEAVENS BEING ON FIRE SHALL BE DISSOLVED, AND THE ELEMENTS SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.�
Since one of these things have come to pass, this puts the lie to what they that teach that Christ has already returned. When one finds this simile, of stealthily coming as a thief, used by Christ, He always uses it inj such a way as to make it perfectly clear that, if you don�t notice it in time, it is your own fault for not being on the alert, not looking for it.
Matthew 24:42-44, states: �Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.�
Now is there anything in that, from which one could fairly get the inference that His coming is going to be invisible? Nothing that we can see. It is very plain, that if a person is on the alert, they will observe His coming; if they are not, it is their own fault. The same emphasis upon the need to be watchful is found in the other places where this thief idea is used.
We run into this �coming as a thief� idea in the course of the messages to the seven churches: �And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write...Be watchful, and strengthen the things that remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God...If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on the as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.� Always the perfect consistency. The only reason one doesn�t see the thief is that they don�t know when to expect him and they are not watching.
Revelation 16:15, the same one we mentioned first (and they take only the first sentence of it): �Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.�
Then we come to Second Peter 3:10, and how they get by this one. I am sure we don�t know: �But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.� Now how in the would could one avoid noticing that, we cannot explain; if one couldn�t overlook that, once it started then they are truly blind.
Again, in 1 Thessalonians 5:1-6: �But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief... Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.�
There is a sentence in there that should be required reading for all of our government officials in Washington, D.C.: �For when they say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them.� No one has ever trusted the communists or Zionists in anything, not once, without being betrayed. So now we have weakened our defenses, especially the anti-ballistic missile defenses, which have been completely dismantled, and are allowing the Russian communists to inspect our defenses to be sure that we do; but on the other hand they have not allowed our defense experts to examine all of their offensive sites.
Now that is betrayal, second only to that of Judas Iscariot (the Jew), because one could pick pretty near anyone, out of an institution for the feeble minded, and he would know better than trust the communists or the Jews in a situation like that. The odds are trillions of trillions of trillions to one, against anyone of those officials and diplomats being even faintly in good faith, in saying that they hope to get peace and safety by an agreement with Russia. Some of them have sold out, and most of the rest are compelled to do that, by the threat to �publish the photograph� if they don�t.
There has been plenty of warning in the Bible that, if one is not ready, if they are not watching, they may not observe the coming of Christ �until it is too late.� What does the Bible indicate that His return will be like? There are a few prophecies, all relating to ancient times, where a date was set: that is, it would say, within so many years such a thing would happen. But that was very rare; it was not the normal procedure in Bible prophecy. Normally, the Bible will give a sign of an approaching date when this prophecy would be fulfilled, and it tells us, watch for this sign; because, when that sign is seen, then we know what is about to happen. That is the rule, entirely, concerning the prophecies that deal with our own time. We are told of things that will happen which will be indications that the big event is near, and if one is watching they will see this; and the prophesied event is not going to catch them unawares.
The Bible, in the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthews tells of Christ and the disciples being near the temple in Jerusalem, the big temple that Herod had built; and it was a magnificent structure, no question of that; and the disciples were commenting upon the magnificent building, and Christ said, �The time is coming when not one stone of this will be left standing upon another.� So when they got a chance to talk with Him about it later, they asked Him about it. Matthew 24:3 says, �And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be?� as He was prophesying the siege and destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, which occurred in 70 A.D. They said, �Tell us when shall these things be? And...� (Now here is the second question) �...what shall be the sign of thy coming, and the end of the age?� Your King James Version says �end of the world,� but in the Greek it says �end of the age.� This planet is going to be around a long time.
Then Christ went on to list seven signs: when you see things we would know that His return would soon come.
1). The first sign He mentioned: false prophets and false Christs. That is Matthew 24:5-11. These same tings can be found in Mark 13:6, 21-22; and in Luke 21:8. Of course we are getting false prophets in carload lots in the National Council of Churches and in the pulpits of the denomination churches of America and the other Western nations of the world, Some of you have heard of the Bahai sect; and they say that their founder who is coming back, the high ruler, he is the messiah of all religions, including those religions that don�t have any messiah. Then of course there is the young Hindu boy, Harry Krishnamurti, that they tried to tell us was the reincarnation of Christ. Nobody but the Theosophists of course have been fooled by that.
2). The second sign that Christ gave: There will be wars and rumors of wars, nation rising against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. That is Matthew 24:6-7; Mark 13:7-8; and Luke 21:9-10. But at that point He gave them an additional warning here: don�t be deceived by this, because there are going to be wars all the time. So no ordinary war is a sign of the return of Christ; it has to be quite an extraordinary one. He said, these are just the beginning of trouble, but the end is not yet; when you wee wars.
3). The third sign was there would be great famine. That is Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11.
4). The fourth sign: There would be pestilences. That is Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11.
5). The fifth sign: Earthquakes. Same verses as above: Matthew 24:7; Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11.
6). The sixth sign is something which for a long time we have neither heard nor seen. He said this gospel of �the kingdom� shall be preached for a witness unto all nations (Matthew 24:14); and then shall the end come. And the Greek word translated there as �end;� telos, means really and emphatically the very end. Well now, in the time of Christ and the original apostles, they preached the gospel of the Kingdom of God; then, not long after that, that gospel was forgotten and junked; all that they preached thereafter was the gospel of individual salvation. And it is only within our own lifetime, since then, that there has been any substantial amount of preaching the gospel of the Kingdom of God. And note: by the way, He doesn�t say it will be preached to all nations to �convert� them; quite to the contrary, it will be preached as a �witness,� so that when things finally happen, no one can say, Why didn�t you tell me about this? They have been told and they have refused to accept it.
7). The seventh of this group of signs; the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place. The holy place, if ever there was one that could be called that, would be the site of Solomon�s temple in Jerusalem. Remember that site was in the hands of the Jordanian Arabs until the 1967 war when the Jews seized the old city of Jerusalem containing the holy places. The Jews had been saying they were going to demolish the Mohammedan mosque, the Dome of the Rock, which stands on the site of Solomon�s temple, and rebuild a Jewish temple on the old site. In fact, there have been a good many shiploads of very high grade American marble stone, cut in Indiana and shipped over there, ready for use in the rebuilding of the temple; and the Jews are trying to find a Red Heifer so they can start the animal sacrifices again; which after the death of Christ, this would indeed be an abomination.
So far, they haven�t quite had the gall to start demolishing that mosque; because, when that happens, they are not going to be facing a relatively small number of Arabs, but the entire Mohammedan world will declare a holy war immediately, and that is some 450 million or more people; and that really will be something. But the abomination that maketh desolate is certainly the Jewish control of the holy place, when they try to put their Christ-rejecting temple there.
In Luke 21:25-35, Christ goes into more detail: �And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars...(so all these impressive signs that we will see if we are watching for them. The darkening of the Tribes of Israel, the sun - which is representative of Jacob/Israel, the moon - as representing Rachel, and the stars - which is representative of the various tribes of Israel {Genesis 37:9-11})...signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars...And then...� (Not until after we have seen these signs - which we can see all around us today)... And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh...So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass (that is, all these signs)...when you see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand...And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.�
How anyone can mistake the plain meaning of these things, we don�t have a clue. The signs are there, if they would watch for them, and there are a lot of people who are going to find this is suddenly here before they are ready for it, simply because they have not been watching.
There is no doubt that the Bible says that Christ, upon His return, will gather His elect. The Judeo-Christian churches like to call this the rapture of the church. Some of the dead, those few who have been selected for this particular purpose, will be resurrected; and some of the living who have been selected, without experiencing death, will be given their immortal bodies just like those of the resurrected dead. And it says we shall be caught up into the air to meet Him as He returns.
With their curious ability to misconstrue the Bible, they have taken the seventy weeks period, 490 years as Daniel prophesied, and said, �Now the seventieth week doesn�t come after the sixty-ninth week, but you have a gap of over nineteen centuries in there, between the sixty-ninth week of seven years, and the seventieth,� and they garble up unrecognizably what Daniel prophesied about what was to happen in that seventieth week. So they say, upon the return of Christ, Who will come first for the rapture of the church, then He is going to flee; routed, and let Satan take over without opposition for, some of them say three and a half years, some say for seven years; and only after that will Christ come back for the purpose of judgment on the wicked. Well, it is garbled unbelievably.
How the church could be taken away before this period of tribulation, they cannot explain, if they read the Bible. Consider Mark 13:24-27, 35-37, and remember that they are quoting Christ: �but in those days �after� that tribulation...� This refers to the great tribulation, this period of war and famine and what have you, that we would go through when the final breakup of the age comes.
He said that it would be so terrible, that if God did not shorten that period, that no flesh would remain alive on the earth. �But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light. And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. And ten...(after all this)...shall they see the Son of man coming int he clouds with great power and glory. And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven...Watch therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning. Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.�
The whole order of this is going to be the catastrophic breakup of the age; terrific things, which does not come until we have first seen those seven signs that Christ prophesied. Then will come this terrific cataclysm, and then, after that, there will be the return of Christ. And after we have observed His return, then is when He is going to gather the elect; the real church.
In Matthew 24:37-39 and 42, Christ gives another explanation of these events: �But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.� Now that verse alone ought to correct their error. Was there a secret flood which floated the ark away, and nobody noticed it? And then, after that, came the flood that was the judgment? Obviously not at all. How, therefore, when we are told that it will be just as it was in the days of Noah, how can they gather this curiously foolish doctrine of the secret rapture? �But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and knew not until the flood came and took them away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be...Watch therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.�
The Bible makes it very clear, there will be no secret coming; it will be accompanied by the most tremendous phenomena the world has ever seen, too great for even the dullest to overlook, once it starts happening. But the point is, that when that occurs, it is going to be too late then, to get into the real elect; you have something to do first. The return of Christ will be unexpected by those who have not believed and have not been on the watch.
In Matthew 25:1-13, we have a pretty clear illustration of just exactly what is going to happen, in one of Christ�s parables: �Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.�
Those who have been studying the scriptures know that the Bible relates that those who reject Christ as their Savior of course have no choice remaining to them but to face judgment upon their sins, because they have refused to accept the only way out. But of those who do accept Him as their Savior, that is only the beginning, that is not the finish of the matter.
Salivation means merely continued life. Both the Hebrew words in the Old Testament and the Greek words in the New Testament that have been translated �salvation� mean, purely and solely, SAFETY.
Salvation....
Hebrew: #3444 yeshuw` ah (yesh‑oo'‑aw); feminine passive participle of 3467; something saved, i.e. (abstractly) deliverance; hence, aid, victory, prosperity: KJV‑‑ deliverance, health, help (‑ing), salvation, save, saving (health), welfare.
Greek: #4991 soteria (so‑tay‑ree'‑ah); feminine of a derivative of 4990 as (properly, abstract) noun; rescue or safety (physically or morally): KJV‑‑ deliver, health, salvation, save, saving.
In other words, if one found somebody floundering around in deep water, unable to swim, and grabbed him by the collar and pulled him to shore, they have given him salvation, they have given him safety. The word salvation is used in the Christian religion with a further connotation: that when this meat and bone that we walk around in dies, our real personality will not also perish, but God will give us continued life with a new body of suitable form, so we will continue to have a conscious existence when Christ returns and resurrects us from the dead. But at what level on the scale?
Some nominal Christians are going to be very distinctly �low man on the totem pole,� because they haven�t fitted themselves for anything better than mere continued existence. And most of the Judeo-Christian churches don�t try to teach anything more than that, and in those few that do try, it will be found there is not much enthusiasm on the part of most of the congregation, to learn what it is about.
We have had experience since the time of the Great Traitor Jew Franklin Delano Roosevelt with a miserable botch of a government conducted by incompetent and cowardly bureaucrats who don�t know what they are doing; or have sold out to the anti-christs that are working behind the scenes: and we can assure you that the Kingdom of God is not going to be anything like that. Those who are going to have any part in it, those who, as the Bible says, will sit on the throne with Christ and reign and rule with Him, they will only be those who have fitted themselves for it, and there will be many perfectly good saved Christians (as these churches call them) in the Kingdom of God who will simply have to sweep the streets and empty the garbage because they aren�t fitted to do anything better; they turned it down. So those who wish the higher calling, to become part of the administrative staff of the Kingdom of God, are the comparatively few who have studied for it, that know what it�s about, and they will be fitted to carry out their duties.
In Luke 13:23-27, it is pretty clearly indicated again. We are reading this particular passage from Lamsa�s translation from the Aramaic, as it is particularly easy to understand: �A man asked Jesus, Are there only a few who are to be saved? Jesus said to them, Strive to enter in through the narrow door; for I say to you, that many will seek to enter in and will not be able. From the hour when the master of the house rises up and locks the door, you will be standing outside and knocking at the door, and you will begin to say, Our Lord, our Lord, open for us; and he will answer, saying I say to you, I do not know you or where you come from. And you will begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in your presence, and you taught in our streets. And he will say to you, I do not know you or where you come from; depart from me, O you workers of iniquity.�
What is going to happen to many of the ministers in our Judeo-Christian churches of today? They will say, Lord, didn�t I teach the people of my church that the Old Testament was all a mistake and had to be discarded? Didn�t I teach them that Your laws were wrong, were no longer in effect? Didn�t I teach them to violate Your laws? Didn�t I teach them that at a church supper they should always have baked ham, one of the forbidden foods, deliberately violating the law, to show that now we are not under law but under grace?
Christ when speaking of God�s Laws and says: �For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.� (Also see Luke 16:17)
What they called �jot,� the Hebrew letter �yod,� the smallest letter in the Hebrew alphabet, is just a tiny little curlicue made with a pen; and what they called a �tittle� was merely a little curlicue ornament on some of the larger letters.
jot......
Hebrew #2503 iota‑the Hebrew letter yodh, the smallest of them all; hence, equivalent to the minutest part
Hebrew #2762 keraia (ker‑ah'‑yah); feminine of a presumed derivative of the base of 2768; something horn‑like, i.e. (specially) the apex of a Hebrew letter (figuratively, the least particle): KJV‑‑ tittle.
In old English letters, and they are used today in Germany, how the letters have all sorts of little ornamental strokes added tot hem. Similarly, they would put little curlicues on some of these Hebrew letters, purely as ornaments, which were not, strictly speaking, any part of the letters, and one could leave them off without changing the meaning of the letters at all.
Therefore, Christ said: �...one yod or one little curlicue shall not pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.� And He said therefore, �Whosoever shall break one of the least of these commandments, and shall teach men to do so, he shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.�
There are some who are going to be standing outside knocking on the door and not getting in. The warning is there, plain enough, but the Bible is not taught any more in the Judeo-Christian churches. Church doctrine is taught; which was also prophesied about. Remember the prophecy that there would be famine, not a famine of bread or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the Word of God? That is exactly what has come upon us.
Someone once said, �The more it changes, the more it is the same.� We have gone through these things before, several times in our history. There is no record of any exception to this rule: that an organized church sooner or later becomes a corrupted and apostate church. Now, if ever there should have been an exception to that rule, it should have been in Jerusalem, for we had the temple of God with the personal presence of God manifested there, and yet what happened? It not only reached the point where the priests were not teaching the law of God, it not only reached the point where the priests were gradually leading them into idolatry; read the Book of Ezekiel.
Look at what happened in the very early days, the first century of the Christian era, they had a fairly sound church; but, from the 300's on, as it drifted into the Catholic Church, look at what happened. Which of the old Babylonian paganism that is not part of the official doctrine of the Catholic Church today? It is corrupted utterly. And, look at your Judeo-Protestant churches, the evangelists, the television and radio preachers for the most part, they teach nothing but Judaized lies and false doctrine. Oh there is a little truth mixed in to make it seem true, to deceive the listeners. True, they don�t recognize the pope as being successor to God, but they have a list of corruptions just about as impressive as the Catholic Church. It is that period of apostasy which the Bible prophesied.
The Judeo-Christian ministers and priests are the people who are utterly unready for the return of Christ. If we are not mistaken, the Methodist Church, today, does not require a student of the ministry to swear that he/she believes that Christ will actually, personally return, in order to be ordained as a minister; he can be ordained without believe that. And the same is true of some of the other big, major church denominations.
So it is going to be rather rough going for a good many people when the return of Christ comes, because the signs are here. We have had the warning signs. Actually, it would appear, there remains nothing now but the tremendous catastrophe that marks the close of this age; for we have already had tribulation for our White brothers and sisters in the Soviet Union as the Jews have murdered more than 100 million of them in this century alone. Yet the Russian and Chinese attack on us that is set out in such detail in the thirty-eighth and thirty-ninth chapters of Ezekiel, and some of the Book of Joel, and so on; that, and the accompanying hardships, is all that has not yet been fulfilled.
When the Jews do demolish that Dome of the Rock mosque, the Mohammedan world will go on a rampage. Geographically, the Mohammedan world includes the northern third of Africa, from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea; it includes most of western Asia, including Turkey. And incidentally, those Turks are still tough fighters. There was a contingent of Turkish troops with the United Nations forces in Korea, and everybody admits that those Turks were the toughest fighters on our side. The Mohammedan world includes all of the Arab countries, which are the source of most of the world�s oil, outside the American continent. It also includes much of the Malay Peninsula and even some of the southern islands of the Philippines group. Now, when the Jews get all of those Mohammedans declaring a holy war against them, things are going to get hot in a hurry!
The man that the traitors have foster upon us in the last 60 years have been the most traitorous group the world had ever know. There have been thousands who have betrayed their own people, but never has any country ever had the sort that the United States and the other Western nations have had in this century. A former United States Senator Muskie of Maine once said, �There is no need for a formal treaty of alliance between the United States and the Jewish nation of so-called Israel, because we were firmly committed to the defense of Israel, no matter what it took.�
So our politicians, having forced all the Arab peoples with their oil to become our enemies, the Arabs would be downright stupid if they didn�t simply cut off all flow of oil to the western world, the moment the Dome of the Rock is destroyed. There is only a tiny, very inadequate reserve of oil in Europe in the free world. The only oil fields of any substantial size are those in Rumania which Russia controls.
Before World War II, Europe didn�t depend too much upon oil; all of her electric power plants and her railroads, and her big industrial plants, used coal; and Europe has enormous reserves of coal. But then suddenly, following World War II, somebody saw to it that all the coal burning furnaces were dismantled and oil burning furnaces installed in their place.
In Europe, if they shutdown all not strictly essential use of oil fields, they might be able to run, at the outside, ninety days; no more, on the store of oil they have there. All Russia would need to do, would be to just mark time, just keeping up a threat against the eastern frontier of the free world, but not actually getting into any fighting; just keeping them on the alert, and by the end of ninety days, the armies of the nations of free Europe couldn�t put an airplane in the sky, and they couldn�t run a tank on the ground, because there would no longer be any oil fuel to use in them. In fact, as far as running their factories are concerned, the big, steam power plants would also come to a halt, for lack of fuel. Then Russia could move in and take everything with practically no fighting.
As far as trying to supply Europe with oil from the American continent is concerned, that would be an impossibility. At the start of World War II, Germany had 65 submarines, no more; 65 submarines in operating order, and some of those were just a training type. Never at any time during World War II did Germany have as many as 100 submarines in operating condition at any one time, and Germany pretty near whipped the world single handed.
Russia starts now with an estimated minimum figure of 550 submarines, diesel and atomic driven, of the snorkel type. And she has nearly as many atomic fuel submarines as we have, and within the past few years has increased the number of submarines by a substantial amount, almost twice as many as the U.S. Therefore, we could not possibly get ships across the Atlantic Ocean, even with spy satellites, to carry oil to Europe.
Now, when an opportunity like that comes up, it would be imbecilic stupidity on the part of the Russians, not to take advantage of it. Their Jewish leaders are out to conquer the world; they have never tried to disguise it. And never could they expect another opportunity as good as that. So at that time we are going to have the outbreak of the war.
Russia�s atomic rockets will come over the North Pole, to knock out our production centers: the Puget Sound area, to knock out the big naval base and the big Boeing Aircraft factory; Chicago, because it is the most important center of rail transportation in the country; Gary and Pittsburgh, to knock out the larger part of our steel industry, which has been decimated in the past few decades; and one or two big centers of machine tool production there is left. Her rocket carrying submarines off our coast will knock out our major port cities; and then, of course, coming down from the eastern Siberian coast, will come the invasion barges with their troops along with Chinese troops; all prophesied in the Bible, all known very plainly to our military intelligence, all of it is ready to happen on short notice.
But our people are not in darkness; we know what to look for, to make ourselves ready to survive during the rough period, and ready to take our places, good places, in the Kingdom of God shortly thereafter. But the run-of-the-mill type of Judeo-Christian church goers are not going to be ready. And then they will say, Why didn�t someone tell us about this? (Hah they were told, but just try to get them to listen, for they will turn on you in a heart beat and call you all sorts of names, from Nazi, anti-Semite, bigot, right wing fanatic, religious fanatic and etc.)
In preparation to survive, we would say this: Everybody should have in his home preferably a month emergency food supply. Yes, it will become tiresome eating beans before the month is over, but it is a lot better than going hungry. We should have a month supply of non-perishable emergency food concentrated food. Various kinds of nuts are an excellent thing, because a handful of almonds, for example, will make a meal that will give you energy for quite a while. We should have canned goods, dried beans, that sort of thing, and we should also have enough drinking water to get us through perhaps two weeks, in case the water supply is interrupted.
Remember that all our water supply is dependant upon pumps that are electric driven, and if the big transmission lines from Boulder Dam and some of these places are knocked out, which they will be, there is not going to be electric current enough to run these things.
Those who live in a predominately Negro area of the larger cities, we would suggest that you move out immediately, for they will become nothing but animals when their food and water runs out. They will revert to their original way of life and that is cannibalism, rape and murder. Think of being surrounded by hundreds or thousands of Negroes who have reverted back to cannibalism surrounding your home and family, more than ready to take what little you have but your lives as well, in order to eat your flesh. But if you are in any reasonably good place to live, we don�t see much point in trying to some place else. There are some people who have gotten somewhat hysterical and have run up into the mountains some place. They can take with them all of ten day�s food, and when that is eaten up, what are going to do? This thing is going to continue for months.
Everyone should have firearms and plenty of ammunition; and should know how to use the weapons, because of looters. We would expect to see, probably, atomic bombing of the Puget Sound area, Chicago, Gary, Indiana, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, New York City, Los Angeles, Houston and Dallas, Texas, and such places.
Some will say that New York and Los Angeles along with some other cities will not be bombed because too many Jews live there and that would be like bombing Tel Aviv; but we have seen over the past few decades the major or elite Jews have already moved out or have built houses and can move out in a moments notice to those prepared places. So if you notice a sudden exodus of the Jews from places like New York, Los Angeles and etc., then we would say, Get out immediately; because they know what is about to happen. We have always felt that when you pray, Lord, come down and put the lid back on the garbage can, because the lid is off and it stinks, that prayer might not be answered because God would say, �Why don�t you do it?� We are supposed to do a certain amount of these things for ourselves, and then, what is beyond our reach, He will take care of.
There may be nothing we can do to stop it; for as we take ancient Israel when the Babylonians captured Jerusalem, there were some of the people who were massacred by the Babylonian army, those that had it coming to them; the rest of the people, while they hadn�t learned enough of a lesson and they were taken in the Babylonian captivity, God saw to it that they weren�t hurt.
