We greet you in the wonderful Name of our Lord Jesus Christ and appreciate your fellowship.
In Egypt, Israel were the people of God, but once they set out for the Promised Land they became the Church of God. The word "church" means "the called out" or "separated ones." Those Old Testament types were shadows of things to come. God said, "Separate Me Paul and Barnabas to the work whereunto I have called them." Many churches of today are looking for mixers with the world. People who can tie-up some special deal, set-up a golf day, and maybe a few parties, be well-received among all religions.
Israel was God's natural church with a natural Law. We are His Spiritual Church with a Spiritual Law written on the tables of our heart. Whereas they looked up to see where the Pillar of Fire, the Angel of the Lord was, we don't look, we follow the Word for the hour. When we see That vindicated, we know He is Present.
The world is looking for good mixers. God is looking for those who will separate themselves. "Come out of her, My people, that you partake not of her sins." God separated Israel from the Gentiles. And the Church is a separated people, a holy nation. The world will never understand we Christians, so don't think about the world; think about God the Word.
"If you will obey My voice and do all that I say, I'll be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to thy adversaries. For My Angel shall go before you and bring you unto the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites, Jebusites, and I will cut them off."
God said, "There's a land flowing with milk and honey; it's yours. But first you must utterly destroy all the Hivites and the Jebusites, etc.,
He hasn't changed. Today He's given us many precious promises. Are we afraid to offend the enemy in our midst whose claiming the same promises without faith or obedience? God said, "You shall not bow down to their gods, neither serve them, or do after their works. But you shall utterly overthrow them and break down their images."
Today there's a promise of the baptism of the Holy Spirit which is the new birth. But before you receive It, you might have to cast down and overthrow Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Jehovah Witness and even false doctrines within Message circles. But if you're ready, God promised It. He's sent It, and It's there for you.
"I'll give you the Land. But first, you've got to fight. You've got to overcome." Too many people today are afraid to separate from the world unto the Word, and to stand, and fight. We're afraid we might offend the majority in Message circles who have the letter of the Spoken Word books and tapes without the Spirit.
Don't cuddle that little Jebusite and say, "Isn't he cute". Or hold that smiling Hivite baby and say, "Doesn't he have a sweet little smile". God said, "Destroy him, don't pet him. He'll grow up to be just like his father."
"Destroy your unbelief, and let's go over and take the Land. Hallelujah! God said it's ours, it belongs to us. "The promise is unto you and to your children and to your children's children, even as many as the Lord our God shall call."
"He who the Son has made free is free indeed." Amen! No bondage. If God separated Israel from all those "isms" and "ites", He won't bless your association. That's right! Knock out that Hivite, and the Jebusite. Take that little old Canaanite and just kick him away. Don't let him live. Kill him. God said kill him,destroy him. He didn't say, "Put him in the pulpit!"
Let every person who believes God has given them the Promise of the new birth, rest assured He will heal all of our sickness, provide all of our needs and give us joy and peace of mind until we manifest the Sons of God and cross our Jordan without death to the eternal Land of the Millennium.
This newsletter serves those of like precious faith and whosoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible. Brother Anthony . . .
Political Pope's Millennium Push
The Khazar Pope has followed Moses from Sinai to Nebo in quest of new Promised Land whence Rome can rule the world after the close of the Gentile dispensation (Daniel 9:27; 11:45). His reason is "Peace -- next year, Jerusalem".
Like Egypt's (false) Mount Sinai (Galatians 4:24-25), where the Pope last month ended the first leg of his millennial pilgrimage to Biblical lands, Jordan's Mount Nebo is holy to all three religions because of the story of Moses.
At the site of another religious event, the pope ended his stay in Jordan on with prayers at Wadi Kharrar on the East Bank of the River Jordan where, according to tradition, the Israelites entered the Promised Land or place of their rest and where it is said John the Baptist baptised Jesus and the Holy Spirit entered the Place of His rest. The pope will then finish his tour in Israel and the Palestinian territories with visits to Jerusalem, Bethlehem and Nazareth.(Ha'aretz).
According to Hillel Weiss: "In Israel the Pope plans to be greeted on the Mount by Palestinian paramilitary police and senior PA officials, and the complex will be decked out with PLO flags. Let nobody be fooled, political support for the Palestinians -- and not religious reasons -- is the main purpose of the Pope's trip to Israel. It is a clear follow-up of last month's PLO-Papal Jerusalem declaration." (Andra Brack, Weekend News Today, Arutz-7, http://upway.com/cgi-bin/went
Christianity Outlawed
The conditions we presently enjoy are temporary. We should redeem the time. As Australia's ex-Prime Minister Paul Keating conceded, "This is as good as it gets". Conditions will never improve. And I have several reports of "Protestant" churches in the United States that have not followed Washington's directives, and having surrendered their tax-free status, are being sued millions in "back-taxes" by the I.R.S. We're at the END.
Brother Branham said, "This Jezebel system, blind spiritually to the Word of God, is joining the Council of Churches . . . our great evangelical teaching, we have to forfeit to be an organization. . . if your church is not in this Council of Churches, in time of trouble, they can use your church to store ammunition or anything they want to. And if any man is caught having prayer for anybody, outside of affiliation with this Council of Churches, can be shot, as a federal offense. . . . I have the papers on it from Washington". (Just Once More, Lord, 10:52).
Like Esau, we Gentiles, are fast approaching our place of no more repentance. We've sold-out our birthright to those who are impersonating Jacob.
Because we were not vigilant, democracy has been stripped from us. Gone forever. Whenever we vote for a candidate nowadays, we don't vote our own representative into Parliament or Congress as we once did. We elect a man who's sold his soul to a Party system. He's purchased his seat with our vote. The man who's supposed to represent us is actually bound to serve the party machine, and not the citizens of his electorate. More sinister yet, his political party is bound to serve unions, overseas banking, industry, the UN, some scheme manipulated by Fabian or other ideals anathema to his nation; and every other interest but that of his electors.
Willem Lankhorst writes: Global Finance, by forcing national economies into its "Global Casino", has not only wrecked "floating" national currencies, it has manipulated the "terms of trade" so that nations will not be able to escape from the fraudulent debt processes.
As currencies and terms of trade are under the control of Global Finance, so too are politicians. Politicians are at the mercy of the world media which collects and stores all personal information on "personages", and the financial system which logs all of a politician's financial transactions. How many of us could stand "transparency" at such a level, how many of us could have all our life's intimate details bared to the public.
This is what Prince Charles' and the Duke Of Edinburgh's non-governmetal organisation (NGO), "Transparency International", is all about: -- making politicians jump when the order is given. Politicians "jump" in hopes of being spared "exposure". That is, attack by the media.
That's not the whole story. The Capital of Global Finance, "The City", safe-houses, harbours, funds and organises most of the known terrorist organisations which operate throughout the world (as well as those still under cover). It also controls the powerful UK Secret Service organisations, and has proxy control over most national secret service anti-terrorist capacities, like Mossad, CIA and ASIO, to name a few.
Transnationals, in particular oil companies, "carry out secret intelligence work, with a number of specialist agents, direcfiy under control of secret intelligence services" (Loik Le Floch-Prigent, former CEO of Elf-Acquitaine). Global Finance has "insiders", agents of influence, throughout the world. These agents control political parties, "liaise" with security forces, bureaucracies, etc. The world media, effectively controls the "policy making" of political parties, as well as "opinions" of the electorate worldwide.
If a national leader emerges, as we saw with Pauline Hanson in Australia and Joerg Haider in Austria, the media immediately geared-up its attacks, security personnel were withdrawn, and terrorist groups were deployed to attack supporters. Although the incidents were videoed, the criminals involved were not tracked-down and made to pay for their crimes. Finally, if the "undesirable" national leader is not eliminated by these means, the final solution, a directed bomb blast or a high velocity projectile will "correct" the situation.
Since Global Finance controls both sides -- terrorism and counter-terrorist agencies -- only those who offend the global planners are eliminated. (Willem Lankhorst, The Strategy, March, 2000).
These things have come upon us, through our attempts to buy peace with our enemies, rather than uphold moral, cultural, and Spiritual absolutes within our own borders, and be a separated people. We've sold our birthright. We're morally weak, economically and morally bankrupt. Our whole (once Christian), Western world, is in the same position, because we've rejected the principles of Christ and His Word. Soon our citizens will pay sin's terrible price in the Tribulation.
When we can no longer afford to bribe the heathen nations around us, they'll just walk in and take over. And we'll allow them to take over. Praise God! Christians won't be here at that time.
Some time ago I was speaking with an Anglican minister who outlined discussions at the General Synod of the Anglican Church. He said, "The main controversy was not reported in the media. It concerned the revision of the Communion Service, with the reintroduction of certain pre-Reformation (unbiblical) additions and doctrines, and of the Holy Communion being a sacrifice, rather than a remembrance of Christ's death . . . Both the baptismal and burial services, have had additions, such as holy water, oil, and lighted candles, which were rejected in the Reformation as "dumb and dark" ceremonies.
So you see, "Protestant" churches are turning right back to the old mother whore as fast as they can go. Luther, Wesley, Tindale, Wycliff and the other Reformers would roll over in their graves if they could see them -- 'like a dog returning to its vomit, or a swine to its wallow" going back to the same mess they came out of -- spitting on the blood and memory of tens of millions of martyrs. Shame!
Australia's Federal Government has outlawed the preaching of the FULL Gospel. The Racial Vilification, and the Anti-discrimination Acts OUTLAW Christian doctrine. Oh, we think we're the clever country. We think we're so smart that we can refuse God's grace and legislate to build Satan's Eden, here on earth. We've rejected Jesus Christ, and are trying to return to the Law. It didn't work for Israel, who acknowledged and paid lip service to God. It will not work for us, who neither acknowledge God, nor His Word.
Because we were not vigilant, freedom of worship has been legislated away before our very eyes. Once Christian churches are now apostate; naked of the Blood, Spiritually blind, and bankrupt of the faith of Jesus Christ, which has been put outside the door.
God bless you brethren. When you see the world, and churchy nominal Christians move one way, step aside and do the opposite.
Jesus said that the conditions of the days of Noah would repeat in our day. And we see it. The scientific sons of Adam are following intellectual giants: giants of sport, business and the silver screen -- just like their forefathers before the Flood; refusing God's Message of warning by His vindicated prophet in this day, as they rejected Noah and His Message then. Running after female flesh. Interbreeding with children of Cain today, as they did then. Fulfilling Scripture foretold by Jesus.
If God doesn't destroy the multicultural, multi-ethnic countries like Australia for this wickedness, He's duty-bound to apologize to those who drowned in the Flood.
Jesus said that the conditions of Sodom and Gomorrah, would repeat in this day. And they have. The world is in a Sodom condition, therefore God sent another three Messengers into the world to preach righteousness. Billy Graham and Oral Roberts have gone to the nominal church -- of the world, in the world. Whilst God veiled Himself behind William Branham, a sinner saved by Grace, and revealed Jesus Christ, the same, yesterday, and today, and forever by the Messianic Sign -- discerning the thoughts and intents of people's hearts, "as it was in the days of Lot". And people are as blind today, as they were then. They can no more find the virgin-born Door to God's House, than his fellow-citizens could find the wooden door to Lot's house.
If God doesn't destroy Sydney, London, New York, Los Angeles, etc., by Fire from heaven, as He destroyed Sodom and the cities on the plain, He is obligated to dig up those people and apologize to them. God is no respecter of persons. He promised in Matthew 3, II Peter 3 and Revelation 16 that He will destroy this whole Gentile civilization with Fire out of Heaven.
We think we're so smart that we can reject God's unchanging Word, make up our own rules, and get away with it. Whew! Someone didn't love their children enough to spank them when they misbehaved! And We elected them to Parliament. God is long-suffering towards us. But that won't excuse the sinner, who doesn't take the opportunity to receive his pardon, and repent, and be baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of past sins.
We're living right at the end of the Gentile dispensation, where God's patience has worn so thin, it's razor-sharp. Over the past month, we've been studying the Seven Church Ages, to prove what prophecies of the Bible have been fulfilled already, so we can see what prophecies remain to be fulfilled, and recognize OUR day and ITS Message. Outside the faith, or a clear understanding, of the present Truth of the Word God's fulfilling now, we're not even called to at all.
We're going to review the sixth and seventh Church Ages, to which John Wesley and William Branham were the messengers.
Since the fifth or Sardis Church Age brought a great dissemination of the Word through printing, the sixth or Philadelphian Age was quick to take advantage of it. This Age was the second stage of the restoration, and was the tassel age, the great pollinating Age of the Gospel -- as the true wheat seed of the Word was scattered abroad. Education abounded. This was the Age of intellectual men who loved God and served Him. Missionaries multiplied, and the Word spread throughout the world. It was an Age of brotherly love. It was an Age of the open door. It was the last Age of long duration. After it, the Laodicean Age would come, and be a short age.
It is ironic that today, it is Christ's enemies who impersonate and seek to steal Jacob's material birthright, and who control printing and communications as well as education and (behind the scenes) churches, world-wide.
The true vine flourished in this Age as in no other, when one thinks of numbers, at home and abroad. This Age brought holy men to the forefront. The true vine spread and the false vine receded. Everywhere the true vine went, God gave Light, and Life, and happiness. The false vine was shown up for what it was: darkness, misery, poverty, illiteracy, and death. And as the false vine in its day of power, could not kill the true vine, neither could the true vine now bring the false vine back to Jesus Christ. But the false vine entrenched itself, waiting for the last part of the last Age, when it would win all back to itself, except that small flock that were the elect, true vine of God.
But how sad this Age makes us feel, as we realize that every great move of God, (and there were many), neglected to throw off the nicolaitane doctrine; for they all organized and died. They then moved into denominations to hold the spiritually dead in foodless pastures. Little did they know it, but each group was tainted with that same error, and when the revival fire burned low, organization took over, and people became denominations. They were only nominal Christians, though each group claimed, with the very same assurance as the Roman Catholic church, that they were right, and all others wrong. The stage was truly set, for the daughters to go back home in the last Age, back to Rome, under the mother hen.
And what did we discover about the 1995 General Synod of the Anglican Church in Australia? They're reintroducing holy water, and candles, turning the Lord's Supper into His breakfast or His lunch and making it a Mass, sacrificing unto themselves the Son of God afresh. And our Khazar Queen, Elizabeth, who's Head of the Anglican Church, attended Roman Catholic Service in Westminster Cathedral.
We're coming to the last Age: the Laodicean Age. We know it's the last Age, for the Jews are back in Palestine. No matter how they got there; they're there. And this is harvest time. But before there can be a harvest, there must be a ripening, a maturing of both the vines.
The Lutheran Age was the spring time. The Wesleyan Age was the summer of growth. The Laodicean Age is the harvest time of gathering the tares for binding and burning; and garnering the wheat for the Lord.
We're now living in the end time. Very soon now, God will gather His Bride to the Wedding Supper in the Sky, and turn back to Israel during the Tribulation. There'll never be another Gentile saved. If you have the slightest doubt whether or not you're in the faith, why not come to Him now? While you're still able. All you have to do is prove these things in your Bible, and obey what God's Word says do.
When you have a clear revelation of the Word God promised to fulfill in THIS day, and see that part of the Word coming to pass in your life, you know you're born again. Jesus said, "At that day, you shall know that I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I am in you" (John 14:20).
What day's that, Brother Anthony? When you see the living Word for this day -- not some history, but the PRESENT Truth -- Jesus Christ -- living through your body, you know you are a written epistle of the PRESENT Truth, and it's not your life, for "you are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God"' (Colossians 3:3). It is Christ living through you.
Harvest time. Have you noticed, that in the harvest time, although there's a real acceleration in the ripening, there's a consequent slowing of growth, until there is no growth? That's exactly what we're seeing today. The false vine is losing multitudes to the communists, and various other types of belief. Her numbers aren't increasing as she'd like us to think. Her hold on the people is not what it used to be, and in so many cases, going to church is just a show. And the true vine? What about her? Is she growing? Where are those vast numbers, that keep coming to revivals, and answer altar calls? Aren't most of them merely emotional in their approach, or desirous of something physical? rather than that which is truly Spiritual?
This Age is like the day in which Noah entered the ark, and the door was shut, yet God tarried in judgment seven days? And no one was literally turned to God in those silent days.
And yet it is the harvest time. Then there must come upon the scene in this Age, ministers who'll bring the wheat and the tares to maturity. The tares are already maturing very fast under corrupt teachers who turn the people from the Word. But the wheat also must mature. And to her God sent the prophet-messenger, William Branham, with the vindicated ministry, that he might be accepted by the elect.
They'll hear him, as the first Church heard Paul. She'll mature in the Word, until becoming a Word Bride. And the mighty works will be found in her that are always attendant upon the pure Word and faith.
The false church groups will unite in a World Council of Churches. This World Council of Churches is the image erected to the beast. Revelation 13:11-18, "And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exercised all the power of the first beast before him, and caused the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And he does great wonders, so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceives them that dwell on the earth, by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. And he caused all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, except he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding, count the number of the beast: for it's the number of a man; and his number is six hundred three score and six."
Now remember, it was Imperial pagan Rome that fell by the sword. But she was healed of her death stroke when she joined to the nominal Christian church of Rome, incorporated paganism and Christianity and thereby became the Holy Roman Empire, which was to endure until Jesus came and destroyed her. But Rome is not going it alone. Her (once Protestant) daughters are right with her, and she'll take over absolute authority by the World Council of Churches. This may seem far fetched to some, but actually it's very plain for all to see, because right now, the churches are controlling politics, and at the opportune time, will manifest exactly how great is that control. This ecumenical move, will end up with Rome at the head, even though the people didn't envision it that way.
This is so because in Revelation 17:3-6, it states that the whore, MYSTERY Babylon, is seated on the beast. She's controlling the last, or fourth empire of Nebuchadnezzar's dream. This Roman Church is doing that. With the world church system under her, Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system), will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world. Thus, all the people have to belong to the world church system, or be at the mercy of the elements, for they can't buy or sell without the mark of the beast in the hand or head.
This mark in the head means that they'll have to take the doctrine of the world church system, which is trinitarianism, etc., and the mark in the hand, which means to do the will of the world church. With this great power, the church systems will persecute the true Bride. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches, the true church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His Bride, for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
This resume of the Seven Church Ages, was given in order to trace the two churches and their two spirits from Pentecost to their consummation. In the coming weeks, we'll expand upon this phenomena in the Laodicean Age. radio026.html
Homework: I would like you to continue reading The Nameless War by Captain A.H.M. Ramsay, a book that should be prescribed reading in all schools. Our on-line version is abridged; nonetheless, it provides an easily read historical background which will prepare us to understand God's Word in upcoming Newsletters.
