Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ: welcome to fellowship in God's unchanging Word.

Moses led the children of Israel to the border of the Promised Land, but unbelief and his fiery disposition ensured few starters like Joshua and Caleb entered the promised land. Today we will study the Sabbatical Year and the Year of Jubilee anticipating Jubilee blessings this coming year.

Israel traveled three days from Egypt to the wilderness (Exodus 3:18); a further eleven days would have taken them to Kadesh Barnea on Canaan's southern border (Deuteronomy 1:2). But unbelief and refusal to trust God to overcome caused Israel to perish over 40 years (Numbers 14). Christ's Bride has journeyed 1996 years en route to Jerusalem. Not the Old City, Mr. Netanyahu's slaughterhouse, or a projected Trump Tower with casino but the 1,500 mile high New Jerusalem in the renewed heavens and renewed earth.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.

Your brother-in-Christ

US Economic Warfare against Europe: Trump Attempts to Ruin European Auto Industry with 25% Tariffs

May 22, 2026, — Accusing Brussels of failing to fulfill its obligations under the EU-US trade agreement, which fully entered into force last July, Trump announced an increase in tariffs on European-made cars from 15% to 25%, but postponed their implementation until July 4. If tariffs increase, the Germans, for whom the auto industry is the engine of economic development, have already calculated the cost at 15 billion per year.

According to an analysis by the Kiel Institute for International Economics, these losses could reach about 30 billion in the long term. Even without additional tariffs, the German auto industry is struggling. BMW's first-quarter profit fell by as much as 25%, largely due to strong competition from Chinese cars. Mercedes and Audi also had a weak start to the year. According to its own assessment, Audi could face major problems because it has no production in America. It has already announced plans to cut 7,500 jobs by 2029 . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: China is already manufacturing EV's and other products in closed Ford factories Spain and elsewhere.

Downward Spiral of US-Canada Relations: Pentagon downgrades Military Ties, disbands Joint Defense Board. Trump threatens to Annex Alberta

May 21, 2026 — Washington DC truly sees NATO as a form of "protection racket" that serves only the interests of the warmongering oligarchy ruling America. Pushing the percentage of military spending in NATO to 5% (with 3.5% being the minimum just for direct weapons procurement) would ensure stable profits for the US Military Industrial Complex for decades to come.

However, Ottawa has been pretty straightforward about its rejection of such plans. Namely, back in late November 2024, right after Donald Trump won the election, then Prime Minister Justin Trudeau visited him at Mar-a-Lago and openly said that "there was no way Canada could meet new NATO obligations".

At present, Ottawa's allocation of GDP to military spending ranges from 1.1% to 1.4%, depending on the source. Obviously, that's far below the 3.5% that the Pentagon wants (much less the 5% that NATO officially requires). Soon after meeting Trudeau, Trump escalated tensions with his "51st state" threats. After Carney took over, the downward spiral accelerated on both sides, so he decided to double down by riding the wave of the rapidly growing anti-Trump climate . . . Beijing reduced its tariffs on Canadian goods, while Ottawa is importing more Chinese products than ever, including electric vehicles . . . Beijing is primarily an economic power and doesn't have any aspirations of "global, full-spectrum dominance", much unlike the Pentagon, which keeps attacking one sovereign country after another. No matter which administration is in power in the US, its policies always boil down to unadulterated imperialism and aggression against the entire world. Until recently, Canada enjoyed a relatively comfortable position within this system, but now the hegemon's sword is gradually turning toward its vassals and satellite states.

Trump Fails to separate Russia and China

May 20, 2026 — President Donald Trump's visit to China will certainly remain one remembered in history, and in this regard, one cannot help but draw an analogy with President Richard Nixon's visit to China in 1972, when the topics of discussion were almost the same as today.

The triangle of China, the then Soviet Union, and the United States was in the spotlight, just as now one cannot talk about the Trump-Xi Jinping meeting without mentioning Russia and without asking whether the Americans once again offered the Chinese what they did then?to develop good relations and open cooperation, but at the expense of relations with Moscow . . .

Today, China can talk to the Americans on equal terms, and there is no economically subordinate status for China. However, Trump's tactic of imposing tariffs on China ahead of his visit to Beijing was not surprising, as he is using the leverage he has, behaving like a showman on one hand and a businessman on the other. In business, Trump sets the terms high at the beginning of negotiations so he can lower them later. Now he is introducing these tariffs so he can remove them, in the sense of making some concessions, or rather, showing some power . . .

The US must recognize China as an equal state, not a subordinate partner, and accept that it is no longer the hegemon it became in the early 1990s . . . Washington?s unipolar moment did not even last 30 years . . . it is difficult for Trump to admit that the US no longer possesses the same power it once held . . . The Chinese, like Russian President Vladimir Putin, often refer to history because, unlike the Americans, they are a civilization that has existed for thousands of years and has historical experience and memory . . . it is possible that Trump asked Xi to make some shift away from Russia, in an effort to draw on Kissinger's tactics, aware that the strategic alliance between Russia and China is far superior to that of the US.

Comment: The Trump regime has proven without a doubt they are a mafia cartel . . . Trump has officially reached maximum Bolshevik and is wholly and completely destroying every aspect of America—its economy, its people. And he will go down in history as the Stalin of America. FYI: It took $32 million and election fraud to defeat Massie (globalresearch.ca; and globalresearch.ca).

Ukraine's Neo-Nazi Parties are supported by the International Community. Adolph Hitler is 'The Torchbearer of Democracy' in Ukraine

May 20, 2026 — Our governments—which claim to be firmly committed to social democracy—are actively supporting and financing a coalition government which is supportive of Ukraine's Nazi movement which collaborated with Nazi Germany's occupation forces during World War II. The evidence is overwhelming. Specifically, the German penal code prohibits "Denial of the Holocaust" as well as the "dissemination of Nazi propaganda".

We are dealing with something far more serious than Nazi "hate speech", namely the relationship of the German Government with the Kiev regime's Nazi Movement. See the legal procedures of the European Parliament pertaining to Holocaust Denial. See also the Resolution of the UN General Assembly, dated January 2022 quoted in the above document. Unquestionably, the German Government of Chancellor Scholz's decision to support the Kiev regime's Nazi Movement constitutes a criminal act under German law, namely the violation of the Penal Code. While Western governments are actively repressing the protest movements against Israel's act of genocide, with mass arrests on charges of anti-semitism, these same governments are supporting Ukraine's Nazi movement which actively participated and collaborated with Nazi Germany in the genocide directed against the Jewish population of Ukraine. (1941-1944). . . . The Neo-Nazi parties of Ukraine's so-called coalition government are actively supported by "the international community" namely our governments. The Nazi faction within the Kiev government exerts its power in the realm of intelligence, internal affairs, national security and the military. It's a proxy regime in liaison with its US-NATO sponsors. Amply documented, the 2014 EuroMaidan US sponsored coup d'état was carried out with the support of the two Nazi factions: Svoboda and Right Sektor headed by Dmytro Yarosh . . .

According to the WW II Holocaust Museum:

"Before World War II, the 1.5 million Jews living in the Soviet republic of Ukraine constituted the largest Jewish population within the Soviet Union, and one of the largest Jewish populations in Europe. . . . The number of Jews in the Ukrainian Soviet Republic (UkrSSR) rose to 2.45 million people [from 1939-1941]" . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca

More Wars and Rumors of Wars. Is there No End in Sight for the US and Iran?

May 18, 2026 — President Donald Trump is back from his business trip to China which had a lot of ambiguity over issues like Taiwan without . . . much discernible damage or benefit to American interests. The trip ended with the American participants dropping all the gifts . . . received from the Chinese into a bin on the tarmac before they boarded their plane. And while the president was gone, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, to everyone's surprised, announced that he was canceling plans to deploy an additional 4,000 Texas-based US soldiers to Poland for a long-planned nine month rotation that includes training with NATO allies. The assignment was also originally intended to serve as a possible resource should the situation with Russia-Ukraine happen to spill over into adjacent NATO countries. The troops were already moving to establish themselves and their equipment in their new Polish bases when the surprise cancelation order was issued, possibly as a follow-up to Trump's threats against NATO for failure to support the US war against Iran. (Good sense - .Ed).

President Xi Jinping, to cite only one example of how China clearly regards itself as a major power equal to the US, made clear to Trump that Beijing will tolerate no US interference with Taiwan, which the Chinese consider an integral part of their country. Trump could not push back on that assertion . . . The Arabs now believe that the assumption that they were protected by a US security umbrella proved to be absolutely worthless. Beyond that, they also have observed that they were without any consultation dragged into an unnecessary and unwanted war against Iran by the US and Israel . . . Dare one mention that madmen like Trump and Netanyahu might well consider that if they can get away with an endless war that is damaging the whole world's economy they can go one step further with their nukes to finish the job! Full story: globalresearch.ca

Comment: The US president arrived with an entourage of leading industrialists including prominent figures from major technology and manufacturing corporations, suggesting an expectation of substantial business deals and diplomatic breakthroughs. However, the actual outcomes fell far short of these aspirations, leaving observers to question what, if anything, had been accomplished . . . The US emphasized specific agreements on issues such as maintaining open shipping lanes, preventing nuclear proliferation, and expanding economic cooperation. The Chineset, by contrast, focused on broader philosophical questions about the nature of major power relations and the need to avoid historical patterns of conflict between rising and established powers. This divergence in communication styles reflects deeper differences in strategic thinking and diplomatic culture that have characterized the relationship between these two nations for decades . . .

On economic matters, the summit produced notably little concrete progress despite the presence of numerous US business leaders. Claims about potential aircraft purchases from Boeing remained unconfirmed by Chinese officials, who responded with vague statements about mutually beneficial trade relations rather than specific commitments. This pattern of US announcements followed by Chinese non-commitment has become a familiar feature of recent summits between the two countries. The absence of any new trade agreement or even a framework for future negotiations represented a significant disappointment for those hoping for progress on economic issues that have been a source of tension between the two nations.

(Israel's) Iran War is Accelerating US Debt Spiral Creating Inflation Crisis

May 18, 2026 — Wars have historically been one of the biggest drivers of major jumps in US government debt . . . We are now well into the third month of the Iran war. US federal debt stood at roughly $38.7 trillion when the war began and has already climbed past $39.2 trillion . . . the Iran war is turbocharging the US government's debt spiral and accelerating its ever-increasing currency debasement, which was already nearing a crisis point even before taking into account the compounding effects of the war. The petrodollar system has been a massive prop for the US dollar ever since Nixon severed the dollar's last link to gold in 1971 . . . that system is now crumbling before our eyes.

The Iran war is a stark illustration of the limits of US military power and its inability to provide the protection the oil-rich Gulf Arab states believed they had. Iran has shown that it is the new sheriff in town and that US promises of protection are not only worthless but counterproductive, as the US presence invites uncontrolled instability into their regimes. Iran has openly stated that one of its conditions for the safe passage of oil tankers through Hormuz is the payment of a toll or fee in Chinese yuan equal to around $1 per barrel of oil a tanker is carrying. It is rumored that more than 20 countries have already accepted Iran's new terms. Iran is likely collecting Hormuz toll payments in yuan in a Chinese bank account and then using that yuan to purchase physical gold or Chinese goods and materials . . .

How Empire Manufactures Global War

May 15, 2026 — Global Research founder Prof. Michel Chossudovsky lays out how NATO?s proxy war in Ukraine, the genocide in Palestine, economic warfare, and a multi-trillion-dollar nuclear rearmament drive all connect into a single, emerging global war. We are already inside a world-scale conflict–military, financial, and informational–that is widely misunderstood, dangerously normalized, and far closer to a nuclear tripwire than most people realize.

This interview youtube.com is part of the WWIII series of long?form discussions with thinkers, strategists, and dissidents from around the world, building toward the feature documentary WWIII, which asks whether humanity can pull back from the brink before a Third World War.

The headlines make today's crises feel disconnected?Ukraine, Gaza, NATO, China, energy prices, migration?but Michel Chossudovsky argues they are all fronts in a single, emerging world war.

In our latest WWIII interview, the economist and founder of Global Research explains how US and NATO war planning, proxy conflicts, sanctions, and debt regimes have created a permanent state of global conflict that is economic as much as it is military. He traces the road from the US-sponsored coup in Ukraine, to Nazi elements inside the Kiev government, to a NATO strategy that risks turning a regional war into a nuclear confrontation that could end human civilization.

Chossudovsky also digs into the 'globalization of poverty': how IMF and World Bank programs, energy-price shock therapy, and resource grabs across the Global South function as economic warfare that drives mass migration and social collapse. For him, Gaza's offshore gas fields, Eastern Europe's pipelines, and Africa?s mineral wealth are not side stories–they are core battlefields in a system that treats entire nations as expendable in pursuit of control. Throughout the interview, he keeps returning to one basic point: you cannot understand the cost of war just in terms of battlefields; it is written into inflation, crumbling infrastructure, and the quiet erosion of life chances for millions at home and abroad.

This conversation is part of an ongoing WWIII interview series that brings together voices from across the political spectrum to map the architecture of a potential Third World War—and to ask whether it can still be prevented. As we release each episode, we are building toward the feature documentary WWIII, which will weave these perspectives into a single narrative about how we got here and what it would actually mean to stumble into nuclear war in the 21st century. If you want to follow the emergence of this global conflict with more clarity than the nightly news allows, subscribe, share this series with people who need to see it, and stay tuned as we move step by step toward the film's release.

The Documentary & Interview Series by James Patrick. The Documentary chronicles the current flashpoints of conflict in Ukraine and the Middle East World War III as yet another tragic cycle in humanity's enduring struggle with power and folly.

CIA allegedly seizes Documents on JFK Assassination

May 14, 2026 — CIA whistleblower . . . James Erdman III, during Congressional testimony alleging "concerted" COVID-19 cover-up, said under oath that the CIA "took back 40 boxes of JFK files and MK-Ultra files being processed for declassification" from Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard.

Project MK-Ultra is a US mind control experimentation program launched in 1953. Colonel Douglas Macgregor has pointed out that a Congressional Investigation in 1975 "led to revelations that at least 80 American universities, colleges, hospitals" engaged in MK-Ultra "subprojects involving . . . forced administration of mind-altering drugs, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, sexual abuse, and torture." The project was allegedly discontinued in 1973, although some believe it is still ongoing.

In response to Erdman's revelation, Representative Anna Paulina Luna sent a letter on Wednesday to CIA Director John Ratcliffe requesting that he "preserve all existing and future records" related to the assassination of JFK and MK-Ultra . . . this seizure defied President Donald Trump's executive order to declassify files pertaining to JFK's assassination, and was also "very troubling" because of prior CIA allegations that all MK-Ultra documents were either released or destroyed . . . Luna . . . found MK-Ultra archive documents that tied the "initial phases of the MK-Ultra program to Operation Paperclip," a secret post-World War II US program that imported over 1,600 Germans, including many former Nazis, to work for the US government. The Florida congresswoman shared with podcaster Joe Rogan last year that Gabbard had recently uncovered classified State Department wires suggesting that the US State Department had prior knowledge of the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy . . . Full story: lifesitenews.com and Video.

Jerusalem

Moses branded dispersion a curse: Leviticus 26:32-46, "I will make the land desolate so that your enemies who settle in it will be appalled over it. You, however, I will scatter among the nations and will draw out a sword after you, as your land becomes desolate and your cities become waste. Then the land will enjoy its sabbaths all the days of the desolation, while you are in your enemies' land; then the land will rest and enjoy its sabbaths. All the days of its desolation it will observe the rest which it did not observe on your sabbaths, while you were living on it. As for those of you who may be left, I will also bring weakness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies. And the sound of a driven leaf will chase them, and even when no one is pursuing they will flee as though from the sword, and they will fall. They will therefore stumble over each other as if running from the sword, although no one is pursuing; and you will have no strength to stand up before your enemies. But you will perish among the nations, and your enemies' land will consume you. So those of you who may be left will rot away because of their iniquity in the lands of your enemies; and also because of the iniquities of their forefathers they will rot away with them. If they confess their iniquity and the iniquity of their forefathers, in their unfaithfulness which they committed against Me, and also in their acting with hostility against Me, I also was acting with hostility against them, to bring them into the land of their enemies; or if their uncircumcised heart becomes humbled so that they then make amends for their iniquity, then I will remember My covenant with Jacob, and I will remember also My covenant with Isaac, and My covenant with Abraham as well, and I will remember the land. For the land will be abandoned by them, and will make up for its sabbaths while it is made desolate without them. They, meanwhile, will be making amends for their iniquity, because they rejected My ordinances and their soul abhorred My statutes. Yet in spite of this, when they are in the land of their enemies, I will not reject them, nor will I so abhor them as to destroy them, breaking My covenant with them; for I am the Lord their God. But I will remember for them the covenant with their ancestors, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt in the sight of the nations, that I might be their God. I am the Lord. These are the statutes and ordinances and laws which the Lord established between Himself and the sons of Israel through Moses at Mount Sinai".

Leviticus 15:1-9: The Lord then spoke to Moses at Mount Sinai, saying, "Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When you come into the land which I shall give you, then the land shall have a sabbath to the Lord. Six years you shall sow your field, and six years you shall prune your vineyard and gather in its crop, but during the seventh year the land shall have a sabbath rest, a sabbath to the Lord; you shall not sow your field nor prune your vineyard. Your harvest's aftergrowth you shall not reap, and your grapes of untrimmed vines you shall not gather; the land shall have a sabbatical year. All of you shall have the sabbath products of the land for food; yourself, and your male and female slaves, and your hired man and your foreign resident, those who live as aliens with you. Even your cattle and the animals that are in your land shall have all its crops to eat. You are also to count off seven sabbaths of years for yourself, seven times seven years, so that you have the time of the seven sabbaths of years, namely, forty-nine years. On the tenth day of the seventh month, the day of atonement the Shofar or ram's horn sounded throughout the land".

The Sabbatical Year and the Year of Jubilee fall on the Day of Atonement when the High Priest comes from behind the veil after the sin offering. Sabbatic and Jubilee years provided Israel a temporary suspension from the operation of the curse following the Fall, and a sufficiency without sweat, pointing prophetically to a total deliverance. The Year of Jubilee is the eighth year, speaking of Eternity (Genesis 3:17-19). As evidenced by God's admonishment (Leviticus 26:1-10, 14-16, and 34-35; Jeremiah 34:14) the Israelites did not faithfully observe the Sabbatic and Jubilee Years. Furthermore "the acceptable year of the Lord" was a Jubilee year promising the dispensation change from the Law to Grace and Lord's favour after Calvary (Isaiah 42:1-9; Isaiah 61:1-2; Luke 4:19). This Israel also rejected and most cruelly crucified their near Kinsman Redeemed who turned from Israel to call the Gentiles as a people for His Name.

In Daniel 9:21-27: Gabriel explained Israel's penalty for neglecting the year of Jubilee announced by the Shofar (Leviticus 25:9), and the seventy times seven, or 490 years which began with "the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto Messiah the Prince" II Chronicles 36:17-23; Ezra 1 - 6; Isaiah 44:28; 45:1-25; Daniel 1:21; 6:25-28; 10:1). Israel has yet seventy years which they will fulfill following the close of the Gentile Dispensation to "the time of Jacob's trouble," better known as "the Great Tribulation" (Jeremiah 30:7).

According to historical calculations the Israelites entered Canaan in 1473BC. They spent 7 years conquering the land, then 7 years allocating tribal territory. The Sabbatical cycle began in 1459BC. Counting 49 years from that point, the 50th year or first Jubilee began in the Hebrew month of Tishri in 1424BC. These calendar conversions vary. The Hebrew calendar, juxtaposed with the Gregorian calendar, is based on the earth rotating around the sun and the moon revolving around the earth, thus making it a 'lunisolar calendar.' Hebrew days begin at sundown (approximately 6:00 P.M.) and last 24 hours. It takes about 29 and one-half days for the moon to make one complete revolution around the Earth, thus defining a lunar month. The Hebrew calendar contains twelve lunar months, setting a 354-day year.

Jesus was born in about 4BC. Irenaeus wrote "When Jesus was baptized, He had not yet completed His thirtieth year . . . A man had to be fully 30 years to be a "Master." (Against Heresies, II, xxii, 5; Gregory Nazianzen, Oration on Baptism, XXIX; Luke 3:23). After His baptism, Jesus went into the wilderness for 40 days and then returned to Galilee (Matthew 3:13-17) in the Sabbatical Year. Jesus proclaimed the "the acceptable year of the Lord" or Jubilee (Isaiah 61:1-2; Luke 4:17-19).

Ezekiel 36:20: "When they came to the nations wherever they went, they profaned My holy name, because it was said of them, "These are the people of the Lord; yet they have come out of His land".

Moses' whole religious conception with all the laws, ceremonies, feasts, etc., is built upon the basis of the Covenant with the fathers—Genesis 13:14-15, "The Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, Now lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward; for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your descendants forever"—but Israel's blessing is contingent, among other things, upon his remaining in the Promised Land (where Jerusalem and the Sanctuary which had to be attended three times in each year by every male adult (Numbers 9:1-14; Deuteronomy 16:16; Revelation 11:1-2), and when the Sabbath day could be observed by the whole nation (Exodus 20:3) for God chose Israel as a nation and does not deal with His people as He does the Gentiles who are a People for His Name). An Israelite of the blood of Jacob living without the promised Land is apostate and WITHOUT the Covenant.

Isaiah 11:9-12: "They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. Then in that day the nations will resort to the root of Jesse, who will stand as a signal for the peoples; and His resting place will be glorious. Then it will happen on that day that the Lord will again recover the second time with His hand the remnant of His people, who will remain, from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And He will lift up a standard for the nations and assemble the banished ones of Israel, and will gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth".

Matthew 24:31: "And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other." The first time God recovered Israel was under Ezra and Nehemiah. They were not gathered from the four corners of the earth and neither could Amos 9:14-15 be applied to their first restoration—"Also I will restore the captivity of My people Israel, and they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them; they will also plant vineyards and drink their wine, and make gardens and eat their fruit. I will also plant them on their land, and they will not again be rooted out from their land which I have given them. Says the Lord your God"—because six centuries later they were pulled out of Israel and scattered among the nations of the earth by Titus.

"Jew" is an unscriptural modern English word. The Jews are of Jacob's brother Esau from Idumea, neither of Israel nor Judah (Jewish Encyclopedia, 1925, vol. 5, page 41). "Strictly speaking, it is incorrect to call an ancient Israelite a "Jew" or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or Hebrew" (Jewish Almanac 1980, p. 3; History of God's Holy Bible and the so-called Jews; Facts are Facts).

"Some call it Communism, I call it Judaism," Rabbi Stephen S. (Weiss) Wise. "Anti-Communism is Anti-Semitism" Jewish Voice, July - August 1941. "Edomite Jews began to call themselves Hebrews and Israelites in 1860," Encyclopedia Judaica 1971 Vol. 10:23.

The return since 1948 is largely the result of the ambitions of non-Semitic Zionists and unconverted Jews, themselves in a state of unbelief.

Ezekiel 22:17-31: "And the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to Me; all of them are bronze and tin and iron and lead in the furnace; they are the dross of silver." Therefore, thus says the Lord God, 'Because all of you have become dross, therefore, behold, I am going to gather you into the midst of Jerusalem. As they gather silver and bronze and iron and lead and tin into the furnace to blow fire on it in order to melt it, so I will gather you in My anger and in My wrath and I will lay you there and melt you. I will gather you and blow on you with the fire of My wrath, and you will be melted in the midst of it. As silver is melted in the furnace, so you will be melted in the midst of it; and you will know that I, the Lord, have poured out My wrath on you." And the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Son of man, say to her, "You are a land that is not cleansed or rained on in the day of indignation." There is a conspiracy of her prophets in her midst like a roaring lion tearing the prey. They have devoured lives; they have taken treasure and precious things; they have made many widows in the midst of her. Her priests have done violence to My law and have profaned My holy things; they have made no distinction between the holy and the profane, and they have not taught the difference between the unclean and the clean; and they hide their eyes from My sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. Her princes within her are like wolves tearing the prey, by shedding blood and destroying lives in order to get dishonest gain. Her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, "Thus says the Lord God," when the Lord has not spoken. The people of the land have practiced oppression and committed robbery, and they have wronged the poor and needy and have oppressed the sojourner without justice. I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it; but I found no one. Thus I have poured out My indignation on them; I have consumed them with the fire of My wrath; their way I have brought upon their heads," declares the Lord God.

"I will gather you in My anger." It has not been a Spiritual revival. Almost all of the Kibbutzim, the communal agricultural villages in Israel, are without synagogue or temple. A great mass of these Jews have no religious experience at all and do not acknowledge a personal God (Ezekiel 22:17-22).

So it appears the Second gathering of Israel will be in two stages, the Second of which will be a Spiritual revival following the close of the Gentile dispensation.

Ezekiel 36:24-30: "For I will take you from the nations, gather you from all the lands and bring you into your own Land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. Moreover, I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; and I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will be careful to observe My ordinances. You will live in the land that I gave to your forefathers; so you will be My people, and I will be your God. Moreover, I will save you from all your uncleanness; and I will call for the grain and multiply it, and I will not bring a famine on you. I will multiply the fruit of the tree and the produce of the field, so that you will not receive again the disgrace of famine among the nations." And begin to feed them Spiritually.

Ezekiel 37:12-13; 21-28: "Therefore prophesy and say to them, "Thus says the Lord God, Behold, I will open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, My people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel. Then you will know that I am the Lord, when I have opened your graves and caused you to come up out of your graves, My people . . . Say to them, "Thus says the Lord God, "Behold, I will take the sons of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and I will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king for all of them; and they will no longer be two nations and no longer be divided into two kingdoms. They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God. My servant David will be king over them, and they will all have one shepherd; and they will walk in My ordinances and keep My statutes and observe them. They will live on the land that I gave to Jacob My servant, in which your fathers lived; and they will live on it, they, and their sons and their son's sons, forever; and David My servant will be their prince forever. I will make a covenant of peace with them; it will be an everlasting covenant with them. And I will place them and multiply them, and will set My sanctuary in their midst forever. My dwelling place also will be with them; and I will be their God, and they will be My people. And the nations will know that I am the Lord who sanctifies Israel, when My sanctuary is in their midst forever".

The prophets Moses and Elijah will cleanse their hearts. This Second stage will be a Spiritual move of God Himself, Ezekiel 11:17-20: "Therefore say, Thus says the Lord God, I will gather you from the peoples and assemble you out of the countries among which you have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel. When they come there, they will remove all its detestable things and all its abominations from it. And I will give them one heart, and put a new spirit within them. And I will take the heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh, that they may walk in My statutes and keep My ordinances and do them. Then they will be My people, and I shall be their God".

Jeremiah 32:27-44: "Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is anything too difficult for Me? Therefore thus says the Lord, Behold, I am about to give this city into the hand of the Chaldeans and into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he will take it. The Chaldeans who are fighting against this city will enter and set this city on fire and burn it, with the houses where people have offered incense to Baal on their roofs and poured out drink offerings to other gods to provoke Me to anger. Indeed the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah have been doing only evil in My sight from their youth; for the sons of Israel have only been provoking Me to anger by the work of their hands," declares the Lord. "Indeed this city has been to Me a provocation of My anger and My wrath from the day that they built it, even to this day, so that it should be removed from before My face, because of all the evil of the sons of Israel and the sons of Judah which they have done to provoke Me to anger, they, their kings, their leaders, their priests, their prophets, the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They have turned their back to Me and not their face; though I taught them, teaching again and again, they would not listen and receive instruction. But they put their detestable things in the House which is called by My name, to defile it. They built the high places of Baal that are in the valley of Ben-hinnom to cause their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire to Molech, which I had not commanded them nor had it entered My mind that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin. Now therefore thus says the Lord God of Israel concerning this city of which you say, It is given into the hand of the king of Babylon by sword, by famine and by pestilence. Behold, I will gather them out of all the lands to which I have driven them in My anger, in My wrath and in great indignation; and I will bring them back to this place and make them dwell in safety. They shall be My people, and I will be their God; and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for the good of their children after them. I will make an everlasting covenant with them that I will not turn away from them, to do them good; and I will put the fear of Me in their hearts so that they will not turn away from Me. I will rejoice over them to do them good and will faithfully plant them in this land with all My heart and with all My soul. For thus says the Lord, Just as I brought all this great disaster on this people, so I am going to bring on them all the good that I am promising them. Fields will be bought in this land of which you say, "It is a desolation, without man or beast; it is given into the hand of the Chaldeans." Men will buy fields for money, sign and seal deeds, and call in witnesses in the land of Benjamin, in the environs of Jerusalem, in the cities of Judah, in the cities of the hill country, in the cities of the lowland and in the cities of the Negev; for I will restore their fortunes, declares the Lord".

Zechariah 13:7: "Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, and against the man, My Associate," Declares the Lord of hosts. "Strike the Shepherd that the sheep may be scattered; and I will turn My hand against the (144,000) little ones".

Isaiah 11:11-16: "Then it will happen on that day that the Lord will set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, who remain, from Assyria, Egypt, Pathros, Cush, Elam, Shinar, Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And He will lift up a standard for the nations and assemble the banished ones of Israel, and will gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. Then the jealousy of Ephraim will depart, and those who harass Judah will be cut off; Ephraim will not be jealous of Judah, and Judah will not harass Ephraim. They will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines on the west; together they will plunder the sons of the east; they will possess Edom and Moab, and the sons of Ammon will be subject to them. And the Lord will utterly destroy the tongue of the Sea of Egypt; and He will wave His hand over the River with His scorching wind; and He will strike it into seven streams and make men walk over dry-shod. And there will be a highway from Assyria for the remnant of His people who will be left, just as there was for Israel in the day that they came up out of the land of Egypt".

These prophecies have begun to be fulfilled, placing Israel in position for an attack by Russian-backed Arabs and Semites who have always been against Israel. Genesis 16:2: "So Sarai said to Abram, "Now behold, the Lord has prevented me from bearing children. Please go in to my maid; perhaps I will obtain children through her. And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai".

Genesis 27:41: "So Esau bore a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob".

Ezekiel 35:1-5: "Moreover, the Word of the Lord came to me saying, "Son of man, set your face against Mount Seir, and prophesy against it and say to it, Thus says the Lord God, "Behold, I am against you, Mount Seir, and I will stretch out My hand against you and make you a desolation and a waste. I will lay waste your cities and you will become a desolation. Then you will know that I am the Lord. Because you have had everlasting enmity and have delivered the sons of Israel to the power of the sword at the time of their calamity, at the time of the punishment of the end" (Jordan and Syria).

Luke 21:24: "And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled".

Revelation 11:1-2: "Then there was given me a measuring rod like a staff; and someone said, "Get up and measure the temple of God and the altar, and those who worship in it. Leave out the court which is outside the temple and do not measure it, for it has been given to the nations; and they will tread underfoot the holy city for forty-two months." (The first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week).

Daniel 8:11-14, 26: "(Antiochus Epiphanies) even magnified himself to be equal with the Commander of the host; and he removed the regular sacrifice from Him, and the place of His sanctuary was thrown down. And on account of transgression the host will be given over to the little horn along with the continual daily sacrifice; and it will fling truth to the ground and prosper. Then I heard a holy one speaking, and another holy one said to that particular one who was speaking, How long will the vision about the regular sacrifice apply, while the transgression causes horror, so as to allow both the holy place and the host to be trampled? After two thousand and three hundred evening-mornings, or 1,150 days, (evening and morning are singular" Genesis 1:1, etc.,) the sanctuary is cleansed." and in verse 26, "The vision of the evening and the morning is truth: wherefore shut you up the vision; for it shall be for many days." This vision pertained to the continual daily offering of a male lamb in the morning, and a female lamb in the evening, over 1,500 days, purely for the honor and pleasure of God, not in expiation for any sins (Exodus 29:38-42).

Note the difference between the Old Testament seer, who is far removed from the final future, which he sees primarily in types. Instead of beholding the antichrist he only sees his forerunner Epiphanies, whereas the New Testament prophet, who beholds the events of the last times in the history of the world much nearer at hand, and is therefore not obliged to conceal the prophecies relating to him. For instance Brother Branham said, "After the church is taken away, Rome and the Jews will make a covenant with one another. The Bible said they would, with the holy people . . . they'll make it, because why? This nation is going to be busted, and the rest of the world that's on the gold standard is busted. You know that. If we're living off of taxes, due bills for forty years from now, where are we at? There's only one thing can happen. That's to call in the currency and pay off the bonds; and we can't do it. Wall Street owns them, and Wall Street's controlled by the Jews; the rest of it's in the Vatican, and the Jews has got the rest of it in Wall Street with the commerce of the world . . . when she does this and makes this covenant, we notice in Daniel 8:23 and 25 he will cause craft to prosper (and craft is manufacturing), in his hand."

"And he makes this covenant with the Jews (Daniel 9:27), and in the midst of this three and a half years, he breaks his covenant as soon as he gets the thing wrapped up and gets the money of the Jews tied up. And when he does that, oh, my, oh, my, he's called the antichrist until the end of the church age, for he and his children are against Christ and the Word . . . Now, when he gets the money all under control, then he will break this covenant with the Jews, as Daniel here said he would do it, in the midst of the last half of the seventy weeks of Daniel. And then . . . He will have all of the world trade and the commerce, a pact with the world, 'cause he will hold the wealth of the world completely."

"And during that time, them two prophets will rise on the scene and call that hundred and forty-four thousand . . . Then the mark of the beast of Revelations 13 will forced (II Thessalonians 2:3-17), 'cause he holds all the commerce, trade and everything of the world. And . . . no man can buy or sell except him that has the mark of the beast. Thank God, the Church will be enjoying a great three and a half years in glory. Don't have to go through that" (63-0318, The First Seal, par. 355-364).

In the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week Jerusalem will be overcome by tectonic activity that will sink Los Angeles and cleave the Mount of Olives (Zechariah 14:4; Revelation 11:1-15) in the first 1,260 days or three and a half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week (I John 2:12-23; 4:3; II John 3:7). Revelation 12:7-16, 1,260 days = 3 1/2 years = 42 months. Daniel 9:21-27 explains the purpose of the 490 weeks of years and Jeremiah 30:7 explains that the last week will be the final week of "Jacob's trouble".

United Nations Resolution 181 internationalized Jerusalem on November 29, 1947 at Bretton Woods. In his Encycilcal "In Multiploicebus" on April 15, 1949 Pope Pius XII supported internationalization and decreed Rome's desire on July 12, 1949. The Israeli parliament agreed to internationalize the city of Jerusalem on June 20, 1967.

Gabriel told Daniel there was a six fold purpose to his visit, "Seventy weeks (of years) are determined upon thy people Israel and upon thy holy city," Jerusalem, to 1 "finish the transgression," by turning away the ungodliness of Jacob, (Isaiah 57:20-21; Micah 1:5; Romans 11:21-23. 2 "to make an end of sins," which is unbelief in God's revealed Word (Genesis 44:27-34; Zechariah 12:10-14; Matthew 27:21-25). 3 "to make reconciliation for iniquity" which is willful wrong-doing (Zechariah 13:1-3; Mark 14:27; John 8:24). 4 "To bring in everlasting righteousness," (Habbakkuk, 2:14; Revelation 20:1-3). 5 "to seal up the vision and prophecy," (Isaiah 29:11; Daniel 12:1-4), and 6 "to anoint the most Holy" which will be the Millennium Temple (Leviticus 8:10-13; II Chronicles 5:13-14; Isaiah 65:17-25; Ezekiel 43:1-7; II Thessalonians 2:7-17; An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 321).

In his vision of Daniel 8 the seer was by the river Ulai in Khuzestan Province, southwest Iran, the historical region of Elam when the Lord foretold the rise and fall of the final three Gentile world empires. He saw the fall of Medo-Persia and the rise of Greece under Alexander the Great. Following his decease the empire was divided among his four generals. In 167BC a little horn, Antiochus Epiphanies IV, ruler of Egypt, Syria and Judea, persecuted and expelled the Jewish priesthood, burned the Torah, desecrated the altar and magnified himself above the Lord God Who assured him that the sanctuary will be cleansed and restored after two thousand three hundred evening-mornings of sacrifices, or 1,150 days. Gabriel instructed Daniel that "in the latter time when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, will arise. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. And the vision of the evening and the morning which was told is true: wherefore shut up the vision; for it shall be for many days. And I Daniel fainted, and was sick certain days; afterward I rose up, and did the king's business; and I was astonished at the vision, but none understood it." We live under Rome, the fourth Gentile world empire, and "the time of the end" is right now.

Satan will be incarnate the last Pope and rule the world to empower a certain Zionist American to "confirm the covenant" of Daniel 9:27. Brother Branham prophesied: "I believe, one of these glorious days, when this united confederation of church goes together, and the new pope is brought out of the United States and put over there (in Jerusalem) according to prophecy, then they'll form an image like unto the beast. And I tell you, the true Church of God will be drove together. The real, true believers out of Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Nazarene, Pilgrim Holiness, whatever they'll be, will go together and cemented by the love of God, that'll make the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ, all the believers. And agnostics and shallow-minded will be cast to one side; they'll go right on into the confederation of churches" (54-1218, Acts of the Prophet, par. 87).

"With the woman's vote, the wrong man will finally have full control of the Catholic church in the United States; then the bomb comes that explodes her. There's seven things predicted, and five of them has already happened" (60-1113, Condemnation by Representation, par. 42-43).

Brother Branham foretold that the Pope and his secular image will refinance the US dollar with Roman gold: and in the midst of Daniel's seventieth week he will cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate until the nuclear consummation is poured upon the desolate. The secular image of the beast should both speak, and cause that all who do not make obeisance to him should be killed".

Jesus Christ "beheld another beast (the American buffalo) coming up out of the earth (the United States, whose number is 13); and he had two horns like a lamb, (civil and religious authority) and he spoke as a dragon. And exercises all the power of the first beast before him, and causes the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the papal 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 (Hiroshima and Nagasaki), 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. He will cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand (subservience), or in their forehead (Roman dogma): and no man might buy or sell, save he that has the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that has understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred threescore and six" (Revelation 13:11-18).

In the vision of Daniel 8:11-14, 26, "the Pope magnified himself above Jesus Christ, the Prince of the host, and abolished the continual daily sacrifice, and His sanctuary was profaned. And a host was given him against the daily sacrifice through transgression: truth was cast to the ground and evil triumphed, and prospered. Then I heard two saints speaking, and another saint said, For how long is the vision concerning the continual daily sacrifice of a male lamb in the morning, and a female lamb in the evening, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot? And he said, For two thousand three hundred evenings and mornings or 1,150 days; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed." The continual daily offering was purely for the honor and pleasure of God, not in expiation for any sins (Exodus 29:38-42).

Revelation 11:1-3, "Daniel was given a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty two months. And I will empower my two witnesses, Moses and Elijah, and they shall prophesy 1260 days or 3½ years clothed in sackcloth." The Gentile dispensation is past and Christ's Bride is at the Wedding Supper in the Air and Israel's " two witnesses," are ministering in Jerusalem in the first half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week.

In the parenthesis Revelation 12:1-6 the woman Israel has crossed into the Son-Light of Grace: the Law is beneath her feet. "And there appeared another wonder in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads (Papal Rome, Revelation 17). And his tail (rather the tale that he told drew the third part of the stars of heaven, (Israel), and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered, to devour her child as soon as He was born".

Israel was once crowned by twelve tribal stars, now she is crowned by the stars of the apostles and prophets (Revelation 1:16). "And there appeared another wonder in heaven; a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail (rather his deceitful tale) drew the third part of the stars of heaven and cast them to the earth." The deceitful Roman Catholic trinitarian tale of the great red dragon caused Israel to flee into the wilderness to a place prepared by God where American Christians should feed her 1260 days or 42 months. And there was war in heaven, and the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceived the whole earth, and his angels were cast out with him (54-0512, The Mark of the Beast, par. 157-165; 54-0516 Law having a Shadow; 61-0319, Jezebel Religion, par. 53; our Newsletters and Teaching Sermons). Revelation 12:7-17 points to Good Friday when Satan will be cast down from heaven with his angels, and earth will help the woman, Israel.

2017 was the fiftieth year after the return of Jerusalem in the Six-Day War, and a Jubilee year. The world's preeminent power was the United States. The US Senate was the highest legal or legislative body of the world's preeminent power. In the mid-1990s, the US Congress passed a law calling for America's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. But the president at that time signed a waiver delaying its implementation. That waiver was renewed every six months by every successive president, but in 2017, America had a new president, Donald Trump, and it was the year of Jubilee. The waiver expired in late spring. The new president had promised a change in America's policy concerning Jerusalem, but like the presidents before him, he signed the waiver. Still, it was the year of Jubilee. And the waiver just happened to be set to expire in June, the month that marked fifty years from the last Jubilee. In fact, it was set to expire during the fifty-year anniversary week of that event." However, a resolution was introduced by the US Senate that concerned Jerusalem and the granting of legal recognition to what had taken place fifty years, one Jubilee, earlier, the return to Jerusalem."

The resolution on December 6, 2017, stated: Whereas June 2017 marks the 50th anniversary of the Six Day War and the reunification of the city of Jerusalem. . . Whereas, in 1967, Jerusalem was reunited by Israel during the conflict known as the Six Day War . . . Whereas this year marks the 50th year that Jerusalem has been administered as a united city. Resolved, That the Senate . . . recognizes the 50th Anniversary of the reunification of Jerusalem . . . reaffirms the Jerusalem Embassy Act . . . as United States law, and calls upon the President and all United States officials to abide by its provisions.

Trump's recognition of the centrality of Jerusalem as the Capital of the State of Israel has caused many people, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to compare President Trump to Cyrus the Great.

Resultantly, the Senate resolution called for the president and every American official to recognize the restoration of Jerusalem as Israel's capital and to grant legal recognition to Israel's sovereignty over its Holy City that had been missing for the past fifty years. God is the God of restoration. And He will restore all those who are His, . . . all that was lost will be found again . . . in their Jerusalem . . . and in their appointed time of Jubilee."

A Jubilee Year is the time to expect to receive your harvest from God more earnestly. It is a time to trust God like never before, and anticipate the Third Pull (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2; Isaiah 55:6). A Jubilee Year is the season for reaping where you have not sown in all areas of your life and ministries, including our Home-going! nl1391.htm
