<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><b>The</b> "<b>End Times</b>" are now here....</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Since we are already in the early stages of <b><a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/12/third-seal-of-revelation-worldwide.html" id="aptureLink_fmDJBPfVnQ">Revelation's Third Sealing Event</a></b> - which has been brought about by the forces of "<b>Babylon The Great</b>" in the forming of its <b><i>New World Order</i></b> - there is now very little time to prepare for what is so rapidly approaching. However, those [now] awakening to this new set of circumstances need not panic and fear. For, Yahweh still watches over <b>His Own People</b> and He has provided for those who will <b><i>Honestly</i></b> and <b><i>Faithfully Listen</i></b>!<br />
<br />
Although many have effectively placed their trust in <b>Silver</b> and <b>Gold</b> - in their natural understanding of where our world is headed - the poor man need not actually acquire such things. In fact, they may provide a significant stumbling block towards your eventual success. The "<b>End Time Period</b>" will absolutely require both <b><i>Physical</i></b> and <b><i>Spiritual Adaptation</i></b> upon the part of Yahweh's children; and trusting in one's wealth alone is a very serious trap for most people!<br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>The single most important "<b>End Time</b>" <b>Preparation</b> that <i>The Judeo-Christian Believer</i> can make is to: <b><i>Prayerfully Read</i></b>, <b><i>Spiritually Understand</i></b>, and <b><i>Reverently Heed </i></b>the writings of Yahweh's Sacred Scriptures for himself. There are now a great many spiritual deceivers within positions of leadership and power. This is particularly true within the various <i><b>Traditional Churches</b></i> and <i><b>Synagogues Worldwide</b></i>. For, no "<b>End Of Times</b>" <b>Plan</b> could ever hope to succeed without them!<br />
<br />
Next, we must properly understand where we are within <b>Yahweh's Prophetically Given Time-Line</b>! We have had: <span style="color: blue;">"</span><b style="color: blue;"><a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/11/first-seal-of-revelation-world-war-i-in.html" id="aptureLink_HB5fW8mDqr">Wars and Rumors Of Wars</a></b><span style="color: blue;">, but </span><i style="color: blue;">The End</i><span style="color: blue;"> is not yet..."</span> for we are only living within <b><i>The Third Seal of Revelation</i></b> and four more woes [yet] remain unopened. Nor, has The Third Sealing Event even now reached its inevitable fulfillment and final completion... for, it shall grow increasingly worse within our very near and immediate future. I say this, not to scare you, but rather [merely] to truthfully inform. We have much <b>Spiritual Travail</b>, still remaining, in front of us.<br />
<br />
<ul style="color: blue;"><li>"But, be of good cheer: For Yahshua has overcome the world, and He has gone to prepare a place for us. That where He is, there we might be also."</li>
</ul><br />
Finally, we must <b>Act Accordingly</b>. This is where some <i><b>Common Sense Preparations</b></i> must be <i>Effectively</i> and <i>Obediently Employed</i>! We are now entering a period of: <b><i>Economic Hyperinflation</i></b>, <b><i>Unparalleled Financial Speculation</i></b>, and <b><i>An Artificial Scarcity Of Goods</i></b> - as Yahweh's Prophets so long ago predicted. Nor, shall any amount of: <i>Pleasant Thinking</i>, <i>Unwarranted Optimism</i>, and/or <i>Political Tinkering </i>alter this Impending Economic Outcome in any way... for, <b><i>The Forces Of Political Darkness</i></b> - within our own human governments - are fully behind it! Please, be [honestly] aware of this....<br />
<br />
Yahweh is <span style="color: blue;">"</span><b style="color: blue;">The God Of Understanding</b><span style="color: blue;">;"</span> and <span style="color: blue;">"He desires nothing more than for you to turn away from that which is evil and be healed."</span> This is why, He so openly declared: <span style="color: blue;">"</span><b style="color: blue;">The End, From The Very Beginning</b><span style="color: blue;">..."</span> that you, whom He loves, might be spared <span style="color: blue;">"</span><span style="color: blue;">In Jacob's Time Of Trouble</span><span style="color: blue;">!"</span> Will you, listen now, O Israel? The Entire Earth shall be soon listening, by the opening of <b><i>The Sixth Seal</i></b>... should you not understand, just a little more, than them? Or, are our consciences that <i>Emotionally Seared</i> and <i>Spiritually Jaded</i>?<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Proper Preparations For: "<b>The Third Seal Of Revelation</b>" Will Include....</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><b>1.) Getting One's Financial House In Order: </b> <br />
<ul><li>Pay off your <b><i>Personal Debts</i></b> and <b><i>Mortgages</i></b>! If necessary, sell your assets and downsize - until you are essentially debt free. </li>
<li>Pay your <b><i>Property Taxes</i></b> in advance - if and whenever possible.</li>
<li>Convert some of your <b><i>Personal Assets</i></b> into real coinage, or trade-able commodities.</li>
<li>And, Most Importantly, <b><i>Stop</i></b> <b><i>Investing Blindly</i></b> in "<b><a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/06/who-is-babylon-great-and-why-is-it-even.html" id="aptureLink_eqqo4R4oSv">Babylon The Great</a></b>..." she is not, nor ever has been, Yahweh's servant!</li>
</ul><b>2.) Becoming Largely Self-Sufficient: </b><br />
<ul><li>Plant <i><b>Fruit Trees</b></i> and <b><i>Perennial Food Bearing Plants</i></b> within a close proximity of your home. </li>
<li>Acquire <b><i>Seed Stocks</i></b> and practice growing your own <b><i>Vegetable Gardens</i></b>.</li>
<li>Train yourselves in <b><i>Self-Sufficiency Skills</i></b> and practice being as <b><i>Frugal</i></b> as humanly possible.</li>
</ul><b>3.) Devote Time For Yahweh: </b><br />
<ul><li>Set Time Aside for: <b><i>Bible Study</i></b>, <b><i>Personal Prayer</i></b>, and <b><i>Necessary Spiritual Reflection</i></b>. </li>
<li>Put an effort into <b><i>Faithfully Observing</i></b> His Scriptural Sabbath Day.</li>
<li>Expect your <b><i>Children </i></b>and <b><i>Families</i></b> to openly participate with you.</li>
</ul><br />
Although there is much more that we can do, along these lines, we need not be panicked or fearful. Yahweh understands the deep-seated fears of <b>Righteous Men</b>... and He will provide, for them, everything necessary for their <i>Ultimate Survival</i>! For He knows His children most intimately; and that knowledge includes both their: <i>Spiritual Strengths</i> and <i>Human Weaknesses</i>. Above all else, <b>Place Your Trust Fully In Him! </b>Shalom.<b><br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">"If you love me, then keep <b>My</b> Commandments..."</td></tr>
</tbody></table>In a day and age when <b><i>Presumption</i></b> and <b><i>Licentiousness</i></b> is being preached from within America's Pulpits and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMSRjgzBrxc" id="aptureLink_vkhi1U7A0M">"</a><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMSRjgzBrxc" id="aptureLink_cAVXA3403Z"><b>The Gospel Of Greed</b></a>" is being evangelized across the international airwaves, the clear word of Yahweh rings out...<br />
<ul><li> <span style="color: blue;">"Thus says Yahweh: 'Keep justice and do righteousness, for My salvation is about to come, and My righteousness to be revealed. Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; </span><u style="color: blue;">Who keeps from defiling The Sabbath, and keeps his hand from doing any evil.</u><span style="color: blue;">'"</span> <b>- Isaiah 56:1-2.</b></li>
</ul><br />
Whereas, it's true that we cannot earn <b>Salvation</b> through our own good works, it is equally true that we cannot [honestly] love Yahweh - while blatantly disobeying His: <i>Simple</i>, <i>Clear</i>, and <i>Unchanging Instructions</i>.... When shall we ever learn that <i>Spiritual Righteousness</i> is predicated upon precariously balancing these factors? It is not called: "<b>The Middle Path</b>," or "<b>The Straight And Narrow Way</b>" without very good reasons! Rather, than bouncing all over the map between opposite extremes, why not try consistently reverent <b>Spiritual Obedience</b>? After all, He doesn't take pleasure in any of our outward sacrifices... but, He has always been glorified through our <b><i>Ongoing </i></b>and <b><i>Internal Obedience</i></b>.<br />
<br />

Over the last few months of blogging, I have learned a whole lot of things, which I am now trying to fully incorporate into this site. I can assure you, that in the end the finished product will be: more attractive, faster loading, more functional, and easier to use - than before I started this much-needed makeover!<br />
<br />
Of course, I fully realize that you have mainly come here for the articles - since this site hasn't been among the most attractive, in my current stable of blog sites.... I assure you, that once these changes have been completed I will return to my more frequent level of insightful and personal postings! The real problem with blogging - from my perspective - is the simple matter of, "<b>Effective Time Management</b>." You can [honestly] either: write exceptional content, research and acquire new skills, promote your existing sites, or update them appropriately. Whereas, you cannot [simultaneously] do all four... or, at least, very well.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Yahweh's Intercessors: His servants the prophets.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>In <b>Amos 3:7</b>, the Sacred Scripture [matter-of-factly] states: "<span style="color: blue;">Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets</span>." And yet, why does He always operate in this well-established and carefully defined manner? Meanwhile, <b>Proverbs 29:18</b> gives us this remarkably honest answer, "<span style="color: blue;">Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law</span>." Consequently, we find that Yahweh's own personal actions are always set down and predefined by His prophets, that they might not be: mis-understood, mis-applied, or mis-interpreted by His People. <br />
<br />
Throughout human history He has always carefully chosen and selectively raised up these servants among us - in the same spirit as "<b>Elijah, The Prophet</b>" - to cull and shepherd His flock... for it is the inherent nature of man to pick and choose amongst His scriptures - only those passages, which will justify and rationalize our already firmly entrenched personal positions. Rather than obeying all of His scriptures, and seeking out a full communion with Our Father Yahweh, we prefer to stand just comfortably close - for whenever He might be more reasonably needed.<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">"God In The Box" video, recently on Youtube.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>From man's naturally minded perspective, we desire our God to be kept in a box safely and securely - while we may largely go about our daily lives reasonably unmolested by fits of spiritual conscience... then, when our troubles become too great to bear, we may simply open this box and call upon His Name... finally, when our troubles are once again over, we may close the box [as always] until God is further needed. This is an insidious form of "<b>Half-Hearted</b>," "<b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIracQU27qs" id="aptureLink_WBJERuSB0N">Laodicean</a></b>," and "<b>Double-Minded</b>" Worship - based upon human selfishness, scriptural perversion, and spiritual wickedness - and it displays our utter contempt for The Creator, which we arrogantly and foolishly expect Him to fully accept.<br />
<br />
We treat our human parents in exactly the very same way, and somehow continue to get away with it... So, why should Yahweh be any different? Sure, it breaks our parent's hearts - for us to show them such callous contempt - but, their "<b>Continual <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QS5g-f4-yc" id="aptureLink_jbOKOhjdrB">LOVE</a></b>" is a given and they'll always forgive us our [ongoing] personal transgressions.... In fact, what Real Choice do they have? When everything is said and done, we are their own children, after all! Consequently, if God is our "Spiritual Father," then the very same rules must equally apply - should they not?<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Yahweh knows the condition of your heart.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>No, brothers and sisters, they do not! For, unlike our earthly mothers and fathers, Yahweh knows the true condition of our hearts... He has intimate access to our inner thoughts... and He understands the lifeless, cold, and calculated motivations, which lie at the heart of our ongoing spiritual presumption. While our parents may only observe our short term change of direction, and can hope that it truly represents our own personal maturity and spiritual repentance - Yahweh absolutely understands our <i>True Spiritual Condition</i>! He cannot be fooled by our momentary actions of situation inspired: obedience, adoration, and reverence.<br />
<br />
In <b>Galatians 6:7</b>, it is written:<br />
<ul><li>"<span style="color: blue;"><b>Do not be deceived, God is not mocked;</b> for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows of the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.</span>" </li>

Therefore, we are only fooling ourselves, when we attempt to place Yahweh into that very same box! This is the importance of the scriptures - in that, this message is continually repeated throughout them. Unlike our human parents, Our Heavenly Father has been entirely consistent in the messages, which He has continually given us... His chastisement is lovingly, equally, and consistently applied to each new generation of His children... and He faithfully gives His warnings and admonitions through His servants the prophets. <br />
<br />
Consider the following scriptural passage:<br />
<ul><li>"<span style="color: blue;"><b>For I am Yahweh, I do not change;</b> Therefore you are not consumed, O sons of Jacob. Yet from the days of your fathers you have gone away from My ordinances and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you, says the Lord of hosts.</span>" <b>- Malachi 3:6-7</b>.</li>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">U.S. Naval Vessel verses A Lighthouse: video.</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Although everyone and everything in our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Azy9m0VGm_g" id="aptureLink_mnJRlSgBAO">Multiverse</a> continually changes, the inherent nature of Yahweh [Our Heavenly Father] does not! He is a lighthouse of absolute certainty, or continually precise consistency, weathering our storm tossed seas and guiding us safely into peaceful harbors - when we dutifully seek out the light He is continually providing us. And yet, the stubbornness of our stiff necked natures and largely unrepentant hearts prevents the majority from looking up and observing His steady light. Tragically, the rocks are continually all around us, and the safe harbor has been obscured by the fog - which perceptually envelopes us. <br />
<br />
Meanwhile, His spiritually discernible actions and His specific generational warnings - which He issues through His prophets - work together to provide this much needed: information, chastening, and correction. The reasons for these combined, or two fold, spiritual messages are simple: "<span style="color: blue;">A servant will not be corrected by mere words; For though he understands, he will not respond</span>." As a father myself - who has raised five of my own little children - I can attest to this need for such spiritual reinforcement. The message: "Stay out of the road," is far more effective with the paddle following swiftly behind it! This has [honestly] been my own personal experience.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>And yet, I cannot offer the very same encouragement to my own [now] adult children. For they are just as big as me... bound and determined to lead their own lives, in whatever way they personally choose... and man's laws stand largely and firmly behind them. Nor, can we always fully grasp the ever-changing issues confronting our own adult children. Such is the very real dilemma of human parents. Our job - whether for better or worse - is over and done. We can hope, we can pray, and we can offer advice, but invariably they are [now] fully in God's hands; and only He can provide for their ongoing parental and/or spiritual needs. If we have done our job, He shall fully complete the work that we ourselves have started... even as He continues to complete His ongoing work in us.<br />
<br />
We must, then place our trust in His word, where it says:<br />
<ul><li>"<span style="color: blue;">Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.</span>" <b>- Proverbs 22:6</b>.</li>

What more can we ask - as human parents - in the interests of our own biological children? If only we ourselves could have been as consistent and capable - when they were very much younger... perhaps, our world wouldn't have had to suffer so much?

<a name='more'></a>I guess what strikes me the most is that - being a person who exhibits my own <b>love</b> through physical touch - I frequently am in need of such fulfilling emotional contact. Alas, my own children have grown into adults and now lead their own lives... when I [infrequently] see them, they are hesitant to even sheepishly embrace me... and that once incredible emotional closeness is now gone, conceivably forever! Hearing an "<b>I Love You</b>" over the phone, or receiving a sentimental card, just isn't the same thing. Like many older parents, I find myself asking why children can't stay small forever... and yet, this is <i>the natural cycle of life</i>.<br />
<br />
Perhaps, I'll make myself a sign saying, "<b>Free Hugs</b>," and walk the downtown streets of <b>Abbeville</b>, <b>South Carolina</b>? What do you think? I'm sure my [more conservative] neighbors will also think that I'm nuts. But if I can get that very first hug, I too might finally lighten the mood around here just a bit... and, in this political and economic climate, that would be a magnificent feat in itself! Don't you think? Besides, there's always those <b>Free Hugs </b>to consider... and, then again, we can all use some <b>Lessons In Love</b>! ;0)frank barbourhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10028338067353019974noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5964686868428343992.post-47780492692609545392010-07-20T02:00:00.000-07:002010-07-20T02:10:59.145-07:00Idolatry Looms Large In America And God's Blessings Dry Up<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>

</tbody></table><b>Idolatry</b> looms large in America... for all of our protestations, otherwise, we possess numerous significant <b>idols</b> - as a nation. They include: <i>Money</i>, <i>Fame</i>, <i>Power</i>, and <i>Success</i> - among others. But the greatest, of all our idols, is <i>Government</i>! Americans fully believe that: "<i>Man-Made Governments</i> can provide the solution to anything..." and, over time, we've placed everything into their [seemingly] capable hands. Our leaders have become "<b>The New Priesthood</b>" - who stand to constantly intercede for us, before this <i>Strange New God</i>. Two divergent parties control <b>The Priesthood</b>: <i>Our Sadducee Democrats</i> [who believe there will never be an actual judgment], and <i>Our Pharisaical Republicans</i> [who speak great and inspiring things, but don't do anything that they ever effectually say]. <br />
<br />
America likes this <b>New God</b> much more than <i>Yahweh</i>, for they perceive her as being very very strong. She asks no one to give her a simple ten percent tithe... hell, she demands double that [as the tribute fully due her] and will use physical force to ensure that she invariably gets it. Nor, does she ask her followers to be generous and charitable... she can [merely] take whatever she wants and then pass it on to yet others. In battle she vanquishes all others, through her very powerful technological magics... and her servants are protected, by her various miraculous enchantments! Who on Earth can stand against her and yet live? Meanwhile, all of the nations on Earth honestly tremble before her....<br />

</tbody></table>While we've given up on <i>Yahweh's</i> spiritual and temporal blessings, <b>Our New Governmental God</b> is now amply providing for these current functions. More importantly, our <b>New God</b> doesn't require any silly morality or ethics to substantially obtain her god-given societal blessings. The lazy man shall eat... the non-productive gets paid... and even the crooks can get substantially bailed out! True, Yahweh may own the cattle and sheep on a thousand hills across our largely populated planet... but <b>Our New God</b>, can print all of the money that she may ever need to effectually buy them!<br />
<br />
And yet, I just can't help but wonder... "If men can so easily create their <b>Own God</b>, then why wouldn't everybody on Earth be doing it?" Could it be, that our <b>New God</b>, isn't really any kind of <i>God</i> at all? And what of those heretical <i>Austrian Economists</i> - those perpetual prophets of doom. Could their horrific predictions be right? What if all that paper money [really] does become worthless overnight; and all of our seemingly endless wealth comes to naught? What will our <b>New God</b> do then? Might she grow increasingly: restless, frustrated, and/or angry with her millions of irreverent individual servants? After all, it's never good to anger your own personal God....<br />

If you are one of the millions of <i>Judeo-Christian Believers</i> who have had a less than dynamic <b>prayer life</b>, in the past, then this article is definitely intended for you. After having read it, please take your time to leave me a comment regarding what you think. It will only take a moment of your time, but such reader input is invaluable.<br />
<br />
Having attended numerous denominations over the course of my life, and having experienced their spiritual fare, I highly doubt that you will have read anything similar in any mainstream church. The entire message is upon <b>prayer</b> and it delves very deeply into the subject.

We are worried that our planet may be [factually] destroyed in any number of ways... and we are even now forging our very own chains of impending political and societal bondage. The New World Order is rising, and although few take it to heart, it isn't "New" at all....<br />
<br />
In fact, the "New World Order" is actually a: Religious, Political, and Economic System - from very long ago in man's distant past! It is the Utopian Dream Of King Nimrod and his Mysterious Masonic Priesthood to rebuild that which Yahweh has so long ago interrupted - by confusing their common Babylonian/Chaldean language. Moreover, this Trinitarian Organization is comprised of three distinct powers and authorities: The Freemasons, The Illuminati, and The Universal Church. Let's, see how the scriptures describe her:<br />
<ul><li>"Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots" <b>- Revelation 17:5.</b></li>
</ul><br />

</tbody></table><br />
<a name='more'></a>You'll notice that the <i>Sacred Scriptures</i> describe three distinct features [or aspects] of this: <i>Economic</i>, <i>Political</i>, and <i>Religious</i> entity. The first is "<b>Mystery</b>" [The Worldwide Masonic Occult/Economic Engine]... the second is "<b>Babylon The Great</b>" [The Confusion Of Worldwide Political Voices]... and the third is "<b>The Mother Of Harlots</b>" [An Entity Which Spreads Worldwide Falsity Of True Religion]. They are seemingly different entities, all working toward the very same inescapable Totalitarian and Authoritarian Pyramidal Agenda.<br />
<br />
And yet, only one man can safely sit on top of this globally devised <b>Religious And Political Pyramid</b>. A kingdom may have only one undisputed throne, after all... and each of these three separate organizations fully intends to place their own man in that one particular position. For, although they share some common ground and the very same political agendas, there is no love lost between them. In fact, they have frequently warred [both openly and secretly] amongst each other for thousands of years. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0974981184?tag=apture-20" id="aptureLink_y2A5tk4IHx" style="clear: left; display: block; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0px 6px; text-align: center;"><img height="222px" src="http://placeholder.apture.com/ph/250x222_AmazonProduct/" style="border: 0px none;" title="One World: Economy, Government & Religion in the Last Days" width="250px" /></a>So what keeps bringing them together, during these <i>Tumultuous Times</i>, when they honestly can't stand each other? <b>The Common Vision</b> of controlling all of that Absolute Political Authority and Totalitarian Societal Power is their <b>Final Endgame</b>, and each of them will pay any price to fully achieve it! In the meantime, each of them is openly gracious and cordial - while plotting the eventual destruction of each others most valuable chess pieces. Deep down, none of them sincerely trust one another and it shows.<br />
<br />
However, the next big question is: "Which one shall ultimately dominate the other two?" Will it be The <b>Illuminati</b> - which is comprised of the world's elitist and politically connected families? Will it be <b>The Freemasons</b> - which [by now] control most of the world's physical assets? Or, will it be <b>The Universal Church </b>- which holds power over virtually all of the world's religiously oriented masses? Only one political structure can stand over all of the others. Upon this subject, the scriptures are amazingly clear... <b>The Mother Of Harlots</b> has always been in charge!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.mystery-babylon.net/images/harlotbeast.jpg" id="aptureLink_KeICIKyIMp" style="float: left; padding: 0px 6px;"><img height="269px" src="http://www.mystery-babylon.net/images/harlotbeast.jpg" style="border: 0px none;" title="Who is Mystery Babylon the Great? - Mother of Harlots" width="198px" /></a>How can we say this? Because, according to the scriptures, she has been behind: "<b>All Of The Abominations Of The Earth</b>" - from the very beginning. She has her top level spies in both of the other two organizations and she is merely waiting for the appropriate time - to assert her inescapable and inevitable: <i>Economic</i>, <i>Political</i>, and <i>Religious</i> <i>Control</i>. More importantly, she has the largest number of individual adherents and followers - by far! With nearly two billion people under her direct control, and billions more through her other various "<b>Sun Worshiping Agencies</b>," she towers loftily over the other two legs in this Unholy Trinity.<br />
<br />
<b>In</b> <b>The End</b>, however, this well-understood strength will lead to her ultimate downfall and physical undoing. For the bitterness, with which she'll scorn the other two, and her own egregious actions toward all of our [by then] thoroughly enslaved humanity - shall engender a considerable amount of outright venomous animosity and hatred. In Revelation 18:1-8, we read about her eventual destruction - at the hands of our own world leaders.<br />
<ul><li>"After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory. And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, 'Babylon The Great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a habitation of demons, a prison for every fouls spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird! For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury.' <span style="background-color: #fff2cc; color: blue;">And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. For her sins have reached to heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her iniquities. Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix for her double. In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure giver her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, 'I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.' Therefore her plagues will come in one day - death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is Yahweh who judges her.</span>"</li>

The same ten kings who'll give her their Political: Power, Authority, and Blessing - will be invariably forced [in all good conscience] to wipe her completely off of the map, by utilizing their "<b>Nuclear Firepower</b>." To warrant such a violent destruction, she must be one mean "Harlot" indeed.<br />
<br />
Luckily for us, our "<b>Peace And Safety</b>" may be found in the Sacred Scriptures! Tumultuous Times require significant understanding to safely and properly navigate... and we are now entering a time like no other in our collective human history.

</tbody></table>Yahweh's "<b>Two Olive Branches</b>" must stop their incessant boasting against one another... for it is extremely offensive to Yahweh, and a stumbling block for many of His numerous children at large. Moreover, each of you possesses one God-given <b>Key </b>which Yahweh has given to unlock the access to His kingdom. By examining each others pieces of the puzzle, we can come to the fullness of understanding which He so desperately desires us to have. For the time is now very short indeed, and He will have His "<b>Two Olive Branches</b>" - as, so frequently spoken of, by His servants the prophets!<br />
<br />
Both <i>The Native</i> And <i>The Wild</i> <b>Olive Branches</b> factually belong to the one who owns the entire orchard. He shall graft whatever branch He chooses into whatever tree He desires. And what can the branches themselves [honestly] do about it? The vanity of one branch boasting against another is wickedness in the eyes of "<i>The Vine Dresser</i>." Get over it, already!<br />

<div style="color: blue;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">To those of The House Of Judah:</span></b></div><div style="color: blue;"><br />
</div><br />
I ask you this one simple question: "Know you not, that <b>The Promise</b> was made unto "<b>All Israel</b>?" At this point, Yahweh [alone] knows His other Ten Tribes by name. Will you stand against Yahweh [Himself] and deny them their due inheritance? For it is written, and His Word cannot come back to Him void:<br />
<ul><li>"I will set a sign among them; and those who escape I will send to the nations: to Tarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the gentiles. <span style="color: blue;">Then they shall bring all your bretheren for an offering to Yahweh out of all nations, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My holy mountain Jeruslaem, says Yahweh, 'as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of Yahweh. And I will also take some of them for priests and Levites,' says Yahweh.</span>" <b>- Isaiah 66:19-21.</b></li>
</ul>Again it is written in Jeremiah:<br />
<ul><li>"Thus says Yahweh: Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears; For your work shall be rewarded, says Yahweh, 'And they shall come back from the land of the enemy. There is hope in your future,' says Yahweh, That your children shall come back to their own border. I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself; 'You have chastised me, and I was chastised, Like an untrained bull; Restore me, and I will return, For you are Yahweh my Mighty One. Surely, after my turning, I repented; And after I was instructed, I struck myself on the thigh; I was ashamed, yes, even humiliated, Because I bore the reproach of my youth. <span style="color: blue;">'Is Ephraim My dear son? Is he a pleasant child? For though I spoke against him, I earnestly remember him still; Therefore My heart yearns for him; I will surely have mercy on him, says Yahweh.</span>" <b>- Jeremiah 31:16-20.</b></li>
</ul>Isaiah wrote:<br />
<ul><li> "Who are these who fly like a cloud, And like doves to their roosts? Surely the coast lands shall wait for Me; And the ships of Tarshish will come first, <span style="color: blue;">To bring your sons from afar, Their silver and their gold with them, To the name of Yahweh your Mighty One, And to the Holy One of Israel, Because He has glorified you.</span>" <b>- Isaiah 60:8-9.</b></li>
</ul>Moreover, Isaiah also wrote regarding [yet] still others:<br />
<ul><li> " Do not let the son of the foreigner Who has joined himself to Yahweh speak, saying: 'Yahweh has utterly separated me from His people;' Nor let the eunuch say, 'Here I am, a dry tree.' For thus says Yahweh: 'To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbaths, And choose what pleases Me, And hold fast My covenant, Even to them I will give in My house And within My walls a place and a name Better than that of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name That shall not be cut off. Also the sons of the foreigner Who join themselves to Yahweh, to serve Him, And to love the name of Yahweh, to be His servants - <span style="color: blue;">Everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, And holds fast My covenant - Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices Will be accepted on My altar; For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.' Yahweh, who gathers the outcasts of Israel, says, 'Yet I will gather to him Others besides those who are gathered to him.</span>" <b>- Isaiah 56:3-8.</b></li>
</ul>Although the scriptures relate that, The Tree Possesses Two Strong Branches [Judah/Levi and The Ten Other Tribes Of Israel] - it notes yet other branches being grafted into Abraham's root through Yahshua The Messiah. Do not mistake the paganism of "<b>Babylon The Great</b>" with Christianity for they are not one and the same... for if they were, He couldn't call His people out of Babylon at the appointed hour and time which He does so! <br />

How he thought of the unfairness of it all... after all, hadn't he [himself] stayed at home and remained faithful? But, had he really? Had he really been faithful, by doing His Father's will out of a legalistic obligation - rather than by, his freely given choice and a loving familial gratitude? No. Neither brother had been faithful... one had merely stayed closer to home!<br />
<br />
Both brothers were factually incorrect in their overall understanding of their Father's True Loving Nature... Both brothers were spiritually restive and truly living the lie... Both of them needed something wherein they greatly lacked. They were both prodigals! For they both had chosen to place a spiritually discernible wedge between themselves and their Father....<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="color: blue;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">To those of The House Of Ephraim/Israel: </span></b></div><div style="color: blue;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></div>Although you may not know, yet: "Who you are?" Do not be troubled, by this blatantly obvious fact... for Yahweh is working a wonder under heaven, and you are playing a very great part in that spiritual drama. If you are being drawn spiritually to Yahweh... if you are growing in your spiritual life and walk... if you are quickening and ripening to the harvest... budding, fattening, and bearing good fruit - Then you are one of His children. For no one may come to The Father, lest His spirit truly calls them!<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Wild Olive Branch grows uncontrollably. </td></tr>
</tbody></table>Moreover, chances are very high that your are a genetically cultured child of Israel and of the bloodline of Israel. For even as the propensity toward wickedness is carried in one's genes, so is the compulsion toward righteousness and spiritual understanding. Know you not, that the prophets [themselves] were the product of a very specific bloodline? That is because our spiritual propensities are transmitted through our genes along with so many other things to our own children.<br />
<br />
Now, lest you get a big head, I have a question for you, also: "Do you know why Yahweh has described you, as a, "<i>Wild Olive Branch</i>?" It is because your spirit grows within you quite wildly. You grow a little bit this way, and then shoot off in an entirely new direction... all the while, thinking that you have the: complete, utter, and ultimate truth - to pass along to everyone else. You lack the focus and stability of direction possessed by an <b>Olive Branch</b> native to the tree.<br />
<br />
Consequently, you were led significantly astray, by your [self-appointed] shepherds - who were not [factually] of Yahweh... and to this day you have remained largely in bondage, for all of your idle boasting. There is no priesthood apart from Abraham. Nor, is there any other root - upon which to found it - apart from Yahshua who came from his one familial bloodline. You cannot cleave to "The Mother Of Harlots," nor to any of her spiritually birthed daughters - for their judgment day [surely] comes. Moreover, He has apportioned you among those, who'll gather at His Holy Mountain, and so it shall be....<br />
<br />
Of you it is written in Zechariah:<br />
<ul><li>"I will strengthen the house of Judah, And I will save the house of Joseph, I will bring them back, Because I have mercy on them. They shall be as though I had not cast them aside; For I am Yahweh their Mighty One, And I will hear them. <span style="color: blue;">Those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, And their heart shall rejoice as if with wine. Yes, their children shall see and be glad; Their heart shall rejoice in Yahweh. I will whistle for them and gather them, For I will redeem them; And they shall increase as they once increased. I will sow them among the peoples, And they shall remember Me in far countries; They shall live, together with their children, And they shall return. I will also bring them back from the land of Egypt, And gather them from Assyria. I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon, Until no more room is found for them.</span>" <b>- Zechariah 10:6-10.</b></li>
</ul> And, again, it is written in Hosea:<br />
<ul><li>"How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I set you like Zeboiim? My heart churns within Me; My sympathy is stirred. I will not execute the fierceness of My anger; I will not again destroy Ephraim. For I am God, and not man, The Holy One in your midst; And I will not come with terror. <span style="color: blue;">They shall walk after Yahweh. He will roar like a lion. When He roars, Then His sons shall come trembling from the west; They shall come trembling like a bird from Egypt, Like a dove from the land of Assyria. And I will let them dwell in their houses, says Yahweh.</span>" <b>- Hosea 11:8-11.</b></li>
</ul>Believe it or not, Israel has nothing to boast about, against Judah! While you readily accepted the gift of spiritual salvation, it came with a lawful claim toward repentance and a resultant spiritually fulfilled obedience to Yahweh. By rejecting the claims of His True Rulership, you not only failed to enter The Kingdom yourselves, but created a stumbling block to your [more readily] obedient brothers. For it is written:<br />
<ul><li> "<span style="color: blue;">To the law and to the testimony, for if they speak not according to these, it is because they have no light in them.</span>" </li>
</ul>The Paganism, Idol Worship, and Setting Aside Of Yahweh's Feasts [among other such things]: denied the validity of The Messianic Message... and this too was a singularly great vanity. There is [honestly] no difference in whether you reject the: Kings Sole Rulership And Authority, or His Chosen Method Of Fellowship And Atonement. <br />

Why when virtually all of the prophets wrote of this period in time... Why when it is so very easy to grasp and understand these passages... Why are our own: Pastors, Preachers, and Priests - <b>Our Shepherds</b> - incapable of understanding these passages, as you yourself do? That is a very good question, and perhaps, you should address it to them? I haven't got a clue as to why they cannot, or will not, provide you with "The Truth!" Any answer, that I could [honestly] offer you - would be of a purely speculative nature....<br />
<br />
And, while you are in an honestly speculative mood, perhaps you could also consider this question: "If your clergyman made the very same claims [as I] - how long would he continue to keep his: free home, transportation, and very ample benefits?" How may of your fellow parishioners would tolerate even one moment of "The Truth" - being spoken - from the pulpit? How many are now [even] that open minded? How many are truly in search of a lasting and Spiritual Atonement? Think deeply upon what I am saying, my brothers and sisters... consider the true veracity of these words!<br />

Though they shout warnings at the top of their voices... though they shout them from every roof top and spire... though they shout until their voices grow hoarse... and continue, even after their strength runs from them...

<br />
Have you not read, that: "The Judgment Shall Begin, In My Own House?" Even now, "He winnows the wheat from the tares." For it is only fitting and proper that, "He do this thing, even now, in all righteousness...." Have we forgotten precisely whom <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragrammaton" id="aptureLink_rk5o57XS5x">Yahweh</a> </b>is? Let us therefore, seek out His remembrance - before it is too late! Consider, then, what The Psalmist wrote - so many years ago....<br />
<ul><li>"<b>Oh Yahweh,</b> You have searched me and known me, You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all of my ways. For there is not a word on my tongue, but behold, <i>Oh Yahweh</i>, You know it altogether. You have hedged me behind and before, and laid your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in the grave, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost part of the sea, Even there You shall lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me. If I say, 'Surely the darkness shall fall on me,' Even the night shall be light about me; Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You, But the night shines as the day; The darkness and the light are both alike to You." <b>- Psalm 139:1-12.</b></li>

Even as Yahshua came first to minister among Israel, so the judgment will follow this very same course.

Every once in awhile, I come across something online which renews hope in my fellow humanity. One of these magnificent oddities is the growing worldwide "<a href="http://www.freehugscampaign.org/" id="aptureLink_dOamNhZFtQ">Free Hugs Campaign</a> " - whose stated purpose is to merely remind people that they are in fact loved by others. Such a simple physical gesture, as providing someone a hug, can often make all of the difference to that one individual human - living in this often: cold, impersonal, and selfishly driven world! Just take a moment to watch the individual reactions of the everyday people being confronted by "<b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QS5g-f4-yc" id="aptureLink_AXJSI19O03">LOVE</a></b>."<br />

</tbody></table><br />
You will notice, from the video above, that most people are initially quite timid [or even emotionally disdainful] when the college students first start walking around with their signs. Many of them merely look at them suspiciously or question whether perhaps they are just nuts. And yet, once a solitary individual takes that first step to trustfully embrace them, everyone begins to: lighten up, share a smile, and become startlingly sociable. They have begun the process of realization, that everyone isn't their enemy at all... but rather, many of us are just like them and in need of: human contact, companionship, understanding, and acceptance. <br />
<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>Perhaps, the single greatest <b>Lesson In Love</b><i> </i>is that we are all human beings... we all have the very same emotional needs to be accepted, to feel wanted, and to be loved! The single greatest tragedy of our modern times is that in all of our rush to: build, produce, and acquire items of purely a physical value - we have forgotten that our own emotional well being is inextricably bound up in our common humanity. At the end of the day, none of us will remember [or even care about] the material things which we have utilized or acquired. But the emotional connections that we've made - over our lifetimes - will surely define our personal existence.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragrammaton" id="aptureLink_APQqpqEN1M">Yahweh</a> Is Existent And Creative Love. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahshua" id="aptureLink_kbvsnywiMs">Yahshua</a> Is Redeeming And Refining Love. As His one and only family, upon Earth, what kind of Love are we? Remember,<i> </i><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QS5g-f4-yc" id="aptureLink_apRMDD19fr">Love is an action</a>! Not a soft, fuzzy, and nebulous emotion - which comes and goes at mere will. The <b>Free Hugs Campaign</b> may seem like something small and insignificant to many of us, but it really isn't. The action of reaching out to our fellow human beings is the very foundational basis of All Loving Expressions! A hug may seem insignificant to you now, but when you've happily received one, the world is magically a much better place in which to live... Is it, not? <br />

In the video below, you will witness one of the most fundamental acts of compassion which one of Yahweh's creations can do for another. An: uneducated, illiterate, financially destitute, and socially inept tortoise comes to the rescue of his fellow turtle - stranded upon its back. He does it, and asks absolutely nothing in return.... This is [absolutely] remarkable! How many of our "Fellow Humans" will do the same?<br />

Ironically, such simple acts of loving kindness - in the animal kingdom - are not as rare as one might [more fully] expect. For Example:<br />
<ul><li>Dolphins, Porpoises, and Whales have been known to rescue humans who are drowning far out at sea.</li>
<li>Wild animals rarely kill: without a need for self defense, or to satiate their own growing hunger. </li>
<li>And many of these animals will raise the young of others - even apart from their own species.</li>
</ul>We can learn much from the observation of Yahweh's other creatures. Many of them, seemingly, possess an innocent quality - which is now [sadly] lacking in much of our own human species. Perhaps, this difference can be found in <b>The Book Of Genesis</b>... they simply have not: "<b>The Knowledge Of Evil</b>?" For, surely, all of Yahweh's creation has been given: "<i>The Fundamental Knowledge Of Good....</i><br />
<br />
More Importantly, this tortoise instinctually knows and fully understands the meaning of: "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QS5g-f4-yc" id="aptureLink_5rNbcV59qn">Love.</a>" Love isn't something that we: Feel Emotionally, or [even] Say<i> </i>Self-Deprecatingly - rather, it is an action word [or, verb] with a requirement to: Do It, Display It, and Express It through our own personal actions. Isn't that how Yahshua [truly] expressed it?<br />
<br />
Consider this passage from the scriptures:<br />
<ul><li>"When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from his goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, '<span style="color: blue;">Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.</span>' Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' And the King will answer and say to them, '<span style="color: blue;">Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My bretheren, you did it to Me.</span>'" <b>- Mathew 25: 31-40. </b></li>
</ul>Acts Of Obedience [To Yahweh] and Expressions Of Love [Toward Our Fellow Man] are not legalistic actions... for Legalism is motivated by fear of spiritual condemnation... but, Love disregards all fear - in its ongoing efforts to do that, which is merely Fitting and Right! Legalism is a motivational issue, whereas, Love is a law, unto itself....<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Christian Psychics...?</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Many [self-proclaimed] Judeo-Christian Believers seek out and find some form of comfort, or solace, in consulting: <b>Astrologists</b>, <b>Psychics</b>, <b>Spiritists</b>, and <b>Mediums</b>... all the while, largely, unknowing of Yahweh's readily apparent and blatant disgust - for these futile and foolish Idolatries. And yet, there is no acceptable human reasoning for this lack of understanding. Numerous scriptural references have been made to: The Occult, Mystery Religion, and Her Secret Societies.<br />
<br />
In this matter, the scriptures are made abundantly clear. His people, "<b>The Yahhudiim</b>," - those which are called by His name - have been specifically told not to do this "Great Wickedness" in His sight. Nor, shall those - who do so - be numbered amongst His people, when "Judgment Day" comes!<br />
<br />
<ul><li>"<span style="color: blue;">And when they say to you, 'Seek those who are Mediums and Wizards, who whisper and mutter,' should not a people seek their Creator? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.</span>" <b>- Isaiah : 19-20.</b></li>
</ul><br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a>The results of their disobedience in this matter will eventually and surely follow:<br />
<ul><li>"<span style="color: blue;">And they will pass through it hard pressed and hungry; and it shall happen, when they are hungry, that they will be enraged and curse their king and their god, and look upward. Then they will look to the earth, and see trouble and darkness, gloom of anguish; and they will be driven into darkness.</span>" <b>- Isaiah 8: 21-22.</b></li>
<li>"<span style="color: blue;">Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.</span>" <b>- Revelation 22: 14-15.</b></li>

The purpose of this site is to be inspirational, during this rapidly developing <i>End Time</i>. As many of you are fast becoming aware, we are now living at: "<b>The End Of The Age</b>." For those who are awaiting "<b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4tTYQcdUNA" id="aptureLink_NDOyZO4oYz">The Rapture,</a></b>" I would caution you to read your scriptures more closely. You are here to witness to your ungodly bretheren and to testify to the power of <b>Yahweh's Most Holy Name</b>!<br />
<br />
Nor, can we do so without True Spiritual Growth and God-Given [or, Inspired] Understanding... consequently, Yahweh has provided for these timely and relevant needs. Since we haven't sought out The Fullness Of His Truth on our own, we are slated for some serious chastisement! Though wicked men will be causing it, "<b>The Refiner's Fire</b>" will serve Yahweh's own purpose. As it has been written:<br />
<ul><li>"Behold, I send My messenger, and he will prepare the way before Me. And Yahshuah, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple, even the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight. Behold, He is coming, says Yahweh. But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a Refiner's Fire and like fuller's soap. He will sit as <b>A Refiner And A Purifier Of Silver</b>; He will purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as Gold and Silver, that they may offer to Yahweh an offering in righteousness." <b>- Malachi 3: 1-3.</b></li>

We were meant to eat meat long ago, but instead we continually suckled upon that which was mere milk! Even more tragically, there was purely man-made poison also mixed into the bottle. The licentious teachings of <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whore%20of%20Babylon" id="aptureLink_Z8YdaQiV2o">The Babylonish Religion</a></b> were designed to intentionally stifle and impede our own spiritual progress. <br />

<ul><li><b>Isaiah 35 -</b> "The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad for them, and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose; It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice, even with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. <b style="color: #0b5394;">They shall see the glory of Yahweh, the excellence of our Creator. Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who are fearful-hearted, 'Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your Creator will come with vengeance, with the recompense of Yahweh; He will come and save you.'</b> </li>
</ul><ul><li>Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert. The parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water; In the habititation of jackals, where each lay, there shall be grass with reeds and rushes.</li>
</ul><ul><li>A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called <b>The Highway Of Holiness</b>. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, shall not go astray. No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it. It shall not be found there, but the redeemed shall walk there, and the ransomed of Yahweh shall return, and come to Zion with singing, with everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."</li>

No other generation of believers was ever so blessed! Yahweh, The Father, understands the needs of His Children... He knows how disheartening it seems.

Even as, The True Believers can no longer stomach the falsity therein and are [now] finally leaving, these churches are prostituting themselves all of the more. We are now building to the climax of The Great Controversy between Yahweh and Satan. Meanwhile: <b>The Music Industry</b>, <b>Hollywood</b>, <b>The Media</b>, <b>Television</b>, <b>The World's Governments</b>, and <b>Paganized Christianity</b> are now presenting a unified front of: <b>Deceptions</b>, <b>Illusions</b>, and <b>Indoctrinations</b> in the effort to mesmerize our communities under their collective hypnotic spell.<br />
<br />
<br />
Although many of us may be [largely] unaware of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9hyjgV7o-0" id="aptureLink_37VtiR6mDR">Satanism's insidious influence</a> over: Ourselves, Our Families, and The Society Around Us - it has now become quite blatant and obvious in its ongoing efforts. I would ask everyone to take a step back from their own spirit driven emotions and view the following videos from a: non-participatory, objective, and/or third party perspective. Do not allow your thoughts and emotions to be carried away by the: music, rhythms, and/or spell binding lyrics - but, just observe them as the factual representations which they are. I believe that you may be thoroughly amazed....<br />

<b><a href="http://www.lenonhonorfilms.com/" id="aptureLink_XQJIU84HEU">Lenon Honor</a></b> is one of many individuals working online to educate the worldwide audience to exactly what is going on; and [frankly] all of his videos are top notch documentaries. Bear in mind, He calls himself: "<b>The Cosmic Gnostic</b>" - for a reason. His focus isn't upon "<a href="http://www.yahhudiim.blogspot.com/" id="aptureLink_gcoamsqoC9"><b>The Truth</b></a>" from Yahweh's sacred scriptures, but rather, upon revealing "<b>The Numerous Deceptions</b>" being generated and promulgated by paganism. He doesn't offer his personal beliefs in any of well produced materials and I would recommend bookmarking his site to learn more about our satanic enemies. Remember, the scriptures state: "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore Be ye wise as serpents, and harmless as doves." <b>- Mathew 10:16.</b><br />
<br />
Remember, all knowledge isn't created equal... only knowledge of "The Truth" can set you free!<br />

As <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvonsjqE2a4#t=24" id="aptureLink_z5Rnq2jtko">President Franklin Roosevelt</a>, once said: "We Have Nothing To Fear, But Fear Itself..." and, of course, he was right. Even with all of the seriously troubling and blatantly perplexing problems going on all around us, "<b>We His People</b>" have a God up in Heaven!<br />
<br />
His inerrant prophecies are [now] in the process of being fulfilled and becoming more readily apparent to His spiritually minded children - every single day. Generations of mankind have asked for a sign of His eternal existence, and now they are receiving those signs in full measure. The Seals Of Revelation have been opening all around us - even as our "movement and knowledge have greatly increased!" <a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/05/end-times-or-end-of-age-timeline-part-i.html" id="aptureLink_Kt5SHrazoV">World War I, World War II, The Return Of Israel, The Cold War, The War On Terror</a>, <a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/05/end-times-or-end-of-age-timeline-part.html" id="aptureLink_qU2rTIh04R">Worldwide Financial and Economic Collapse... the increasing clamor for: "Peace and Safety," and the arising "New World Order"</a> - which will, so soon, shortly result. The proverbial, "Babylon The Great" is now stepping from the shadows and the entire planet will be filled with great shock and wonderment.<br />
<br />

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjsiGLxT9mg" id="aptureLink_Jztybo8d8I" style="clear: left; display: block; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0px 6px; text-align: center;"><img height="156px" src="http://i.ytimg.com/vi/cjsiGLxT9mg/0.jpg" style="border: 0px none;" title="Fighting the New World Order: Information Revolution 2009" width="250px" /></a>Yes, times are fast becoming perilous, my brothers and sisters, but we shouldn't have been caught truly unaware. For we have all recognized some of the signs with ever greater specificity all along. Most of us, at least, understood the profound significance of: "<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8WMg1ARwzQ" id="aptureLink_ZOHD2Wi2qF"><b>Our great increase in temporal and spiritual knowledge</b>,</a>" or "The return of Israel to their own homeland." What we couldn't conceptualize, however, was [precisely] where in the time line we were. Even now, eyes are opening all across the world in utter wonderment and astonished amazement. How did we fail to see: <b>The Two World Wars and The Two Rumored Wars</b> as mentioned in both: <b>Mathew and Revelation</b>.<br />
<br />
The problem has always been one of our prioritized focus! We were so wrapped up in our own daily lives, as to be unable to step back and notice the true picture. Moreover, we didn't want to contemplate the underlying meanings of the spiritual warfare which so tumultuously rages around us. Perhaps, we had even forgotten Yahshua's clear admonition, that: "<b>We war not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers, and </b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjsiGLxT9mg" id="aptureLink_M9R8ZiRicL"><b>against wickedness in high places</b></a>." Regardless, we all missed it, initially, anyway.... Don't beat yourself up. <br />
<br />
Now, that I have your attention, I would like to introduce myself up front! My name is <b>Francis R. Barbour</b> and the officially sounding title of "P.D.S.O." is wholly fictitious - as far as any doctoral degrees go. It stands for <b>Professional Doctor Of Spirited Opinion</b> and I will do my best to live up those fanciful credentials. Yahweh isn't a respecter of persons, or their man-made credentials. However, I am a fellow Judeo-Christian Believer, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CR3hg452VGc" id="aptureLink_hAF6xmo8dt">I Love You</a>, and I am no longer afraid of what's most certainly coming! Nor, should you be either....<br />

No, it isn't because I foolishly think we can somehow alter, or even slow, the rising tide of our imminent societal destruction. No, it isn't because America will somehow be spared from this worldwide cataclysm. In fact, America is at very near the heart of this issue and may be properly understood as "<a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/05/false-prophet-america-in-prophecy.html" id="aptureLink_0GfM2IF0vK">The False Prophet, or The Beast From The Land</a>!" She is [now] the mere political puppet and vocal mouthpiece for "<a href="http://yahhudiim.blogspot.com/2010/06/who-is-babylon-great-and-why-is-it-even.html" id="aptureLink_RELM7HNimm">The Mother Of Harlots</a>."<br />
<br />
The One True God "<b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahweh" id="aptureLink_GjR2Y6hBAb">YAHWEH</a></b>" has promised to protect us - in the upcoming days ahead! Yes, some of us will die... many of us, quite likely... but, Yahweh has already proven His power over the grave and His Son <b><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahshua" id="aptureLink_923Pbtu2WF">Yahshua</a></b> [long ago misnamed, Jesus] is the inescapable proof. Moreover, "The Long Awaited Resurrection" of all Yahweh's followers isn't very far away at this historical point. The <b>Key</b> is to be: "<b>Peaceful and At Rest</b>," or to, "<b>Be Still and Trust In Yahweh Your Mighty One</b>!" You are now more than halfway through The First Six Seals having been given in Revelation chapter 6... therefore, hold fast to your convictions and faith, but a little while longer.<br />
<br />

Yes, there is much that you should be attempting to learn about Him and the snares which are [even now] all around you... but, "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John%203%3A16" id="aptureLink_VvOlxLDypK">Our Father In Heaven is merciful, for He would that none should perish</a>" and there is still a short time [yet] to gain that much needed spiritual knowledge.<br />
<br />
I say this, not to make you feel complacent, but rather speaking in "<b>Spirit and Truth</b>." However, do not put it off any longer, <b>The Sixth Seal is the closing date on Our Human Probation! </b>For, The Seventh Seal is the beginning of The Heralding Trumpets... and The Seventh Trumpet is the beginning of His Wrath Upon Babylon. He is now proclaiming to His people: "<b>Come Out Of Babylon [religious confusion] My People, lest you share in her [inevitable] destruction, for the cries have rung out to Heaven and I will not hold back My wrath much longer....</b>"<br />
