Introduction

This book covers Bible prophecy starting with the seventy

weeks of Daniel and going through the book of Revelations. If you

are like me, I could never make sense of prophecy using the

dispensational method of understanding prophecy. They try to

jumble everything into a seven-year tribulation period that is not

even mentioned in the Bible. This book shows how the prophecies

of the Bible are laid out and how they have been fulfilled in

sequential order. You will also see that you can place a date stamp

on each and every prophecy that is in the Bible. By doing this, Bible

prophecy comes alive with an order and a meaning that makes

perfect sense. When you see how and when prophecy was

completed you will be amazed at how easy it is to understand the

entire prophetic picture.

If you are familiar with the book of Daniel, you will

remember that Gabriel told Daniel to close up the book of the

vision that he had received. As a result, Daniel did not finish giving

the details of his vision. The remainders of the details of this vision

are given in the book of Revelations. The Apostle John reopened

the book of Daniel and finished giving us the details. John saw the

same vision that Daniel had seen so that he could now finish giving

us the details of the vision.

The book of Daniel and Revelations were written in code.

This is because only those who were earnestly seeking the Kingdom

of Elohim are to be given the understanding of these books. Once

one becomes familiar with the various coded messages of the Bible

it starts to become clear what the message reveals. For now, we

will start with the layout of the book of Revelation. The book is

divided into:

• "the things which thou hast seen" - events of chapter 1,

which are things that happened in the past.

Page 6: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

2

• "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies

that existed at that time and to which John wrote in

chapters 2 and 3,

• "the things which shall be hereafter" - events from chapter

4 until the end of chapter 22. These things began shortly

after John’s time. The things, which are coming after, are

coming for the purpose to prove and perfect the Assembly

of Elohim. These things happen in the sequence laid out in

the Bible. Now that they have happened, we can look back

in history and say this is that which happened.

For us in 2018, the things that shall be hereafter starts in

chapter 12 of Revelations. In Revelations 12, we are given a sign in

heaven. This sign appeared in the heavens on 23 Sep 2017. This sign

is the starting point for the end time events. We are very close to

the end, much closer than most people realize!

The Seventy Weeks of Daniel (597BC-42AD)

Anyone who has the slightest knowledge of Bible Prophecy

has heard of the seventy weeks of Daniel. This is in reference to

Daniel 9:23-27 where the angel Gabriel spoke to Daniel and told

him that there were seventy weeks assigned to Daniel’s people.

As we go through these scriptures, you will see that the

seventy weeks given to Daniel’s people is about the transfer of the

Kingdom from the Aaronic Priesthood over to the Messianic

Priesthood. What you will discover is that YEHOVAH assigned

seventy weeks for the covenant to go on under the Aaronic

Priesthood. As the seventy weeks ended, Yeshua came on the

scene. After His death and resurrection, the Kingdom is transferred

from the sons of Aaron to Yeshua Messiah. We will go through this

verse-by-verse:

23 "At the beginning of your supplications the command was

issued, and I have come to tell you, for you are highly esteemed;

so give heed to the message and gain understanding of the vision.

Daniel had been praying and interceding for several weeks

on behalf of his people, the Jews (The House of Judah), which were

in captivity in Babylon. To answer Daniel’s prayer YAH sent the

angel Gabriel.

24 "Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy place.

This verse establishes a time line for Daniel’s people, and it

gives the reason for the time line. Seventy weeks were established.

Page 8: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

4

The word “weeks” is from the Hebrew word shaw-boo'-ah, which

means, “literally sevened, that is, a week (specifically of years).” So,

a “week” is seven years and seventy weeks means seventy weeks

of years. In YAH’s reckoning of time every seventh year is a Sabbath

year, so there were seventy Sabbath years established for Daniel’s

people. The total for Seventy Sabbath years amounts to four

hundred and ninety years.

The purpose of the seventy weeks has to do with the

covenant of YEHOVAH with His people. It is the wrapping up of the

old covenant with the sons of Aaron as High Priests and the

ushering in of the new covenant where Yeshua Messiah will be

anointed to be the High Priest.

Gabriel begins by telling us that there have been seventy

weeks decreed for the people and for the holy city; then he ends

the sentence by telling us that the most holy place will be anointed.

This is referring to a shift in the way the temple is structured in the

age of the Messiah. Although there will be a physical Temple built

the true Temple is man. During the time of the old covenant, the

temple was the dwelling place for YEHOVAH’s Shekinah glory. The

priesthood of the old covenant presided over a temple made of

stones. Under the new covenant, the Shekinah glory will dwell in

the hearts of Elohim’s people. So the anointing of the most holy

one is the anointing of the King and Priest in this new temple

structure.

The Most Holy Place is the body of Yeshua Messiah. Yeshua

alluded to this in the gospels, such as John 2:18-21, where He said,

"Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." The Jews

therefore said, "It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will

You raise it up in three days?" But He was speaking of the temple

of His body.” We also are told this in Revelations 21:22, “And I saw

no temple in it, for the Lord Elohim, the Almighty, and the Lamb,

are its temple.” So as you can see, the temple is no longer made of

brick and stones, but now it is the body of the Messiah Yeshua.

Page 9: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

5

In the Bible, when someone is anointed he has been chosen

by YEHOVAH to hold a position over Israel. The Kings and High

Priests of Israel are anointed as a sign that they have been given

the title and position of their office. In this case Yeshua is not only

Anointed to be King and Priest, but also to house the Shekinah

Glory of the Most High.

Yeshua was anointed to take over the office of High Priest

by the woman in the Pharisees house when she poured a bottle of

perfume on His feet. It is significant that this took place while

Yeshua was in the presence of the leadership of Israel. Yeshua had

this to say to the Pharisee when this took place, "You did not anoint

My head with oil, but she anointed My feet with perfume.

(Luke 7:46) This was a rebuke of the political and spiritual leaders

of Judah. The Pharisees did not recognize their Messiah and anoint

Yeshua to be King and Priest over Israel. Instead, YEHOVAH had to

send this woman to anoint the Most Holy Place, Yeshua Messiah.

The anointing of Yeshua signaled that the Aaronic Priesthood was

ending to be replaced by the Priesthood of Yeshua. Because this

happened when Yeshua was in the presence of the leadership of

Israel YEHOVAH was sending a message that a new leader was now

anointed to take the office and given the position of leadership

over Israel.

This is similar to the story of David. When David was

anointed to be King of Israel, his anointing was a message to Saul

and to the nation of Israel that the office of the King had been

removed from Saul and given to David. It was years later before the

change took place, but it did take place.

When Gabriel said, “To finish the transgression, to make

an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in

everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy,” this

has to do with the change in the structure of the covenant. Man

continually transgressed the Law because the Priesthood was

ineffective at bringing man close to Elohim. Also, the sacrifice of

Page 10: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

6

animals was not able take away sin. Now as High Priest and as our

eternal sacrifice, Yeshua, the quickening spirit, is able transform

man so that he will not continue to transgress the Law, thus

bringing in everlasting righteousness. Yeshua’s sacrifice effectively

atoned for our sins; therefore, he made an end to sin for those who

will accept Him. Yeshua was the result of hundreds of prophecies

concerning His coming, thus sealing up prophecy.

25-26 "So you are to know and discern that from the issuing of a decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until Messiah the Prince there will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; it will be built again, with plaza and moat, even in times of distress. “Then after the sixty-two weeks the Messiah will be cut off and have nothing…

The decree to rebuild Jerusalem went out in about 445 BC.

From that time, until the Temple was rebuilt it took seven weeks,

or forty-nine years. This happened in the time of Ezra who rebuilt

the temple and re-established the sacrifice. The book of Ezra tells

the story of how in times of distress the Temple was completed and

the sacrificial system was renewed.

Now for the next sixty-two weeks, or four hundred and

thirty four years the Mosaic covenant resumed. This brings us to

the time of the Messiah. Once these sixty-two weeks concluded

sixty-nine weeks of the prophecy had been fulfilled. At this time,

Yeshua was cut off. He was cut off, rejected and executed by His

people. Yeshua was cut off from his earthly Kingdom and from

being the High Priest of His people, of which he had been anointed

by YEHOVAH. He ascended to Heaven where He waits to return and

take His Kingdom.

From the time that Yeshua was cut off, there was one week,

or seven years left in the time frame given by Gabriel. This is where

modern theologians add a gap and say that because Yeshua was

cut off there is a gap in the time frame given by Gabriel. They say

Page 11: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

7

that the final seven years will take place just prior to Jesus returning

to the earth. There is a seven year period in the end time where

there is a peace treaty made with the nation Israel (Dan 9: 27), but

that is not the same as these seven years.

The context of what Gabriel was saying has to do with the

time frame given to Daniel’s people to carry on with the covenant.

During their captivity, Daniel was the leader of the Jews (The House

of Judah) and Daniel’s concern was for his people. This is the

context of what Gabriel was telling Daniel. Gabriel told Daniel that

YEHOVAH assigned seventy sevens for his people. After the seventy

sevens, YEHOVAH’s dealing with His people would be over under

the Mosaic covenant with the sons of Aaron as priests. From that

point in time forward the Jews would no longer deal with the

Aaronic Priesthood concerning matters of spiritual worship and

access to YEHOVAH, they will now deal with Aaron’s predecessor

the Messiah.

As a whole, Judah rejected the Messiah and He was cut off.

Daniel’s people were supposed to be a Royal Priesthood who would

take the message of YEHOVAH around the world in order to draw

as many into the Kingdom as would come. They were supposed to

demonstrate Elohim’s Law/Torah and the blessings that came

along with keeping His Law. Rather than doing this, they continued

in a cycle of transgression and judgment. The Mosaic covenant was

not accomplishing its intended purpose so YAH assigned an end to

it, and it ended at the end of the seventy weeks.

Because the Messiah was cut off does not mean that the

time frame stopped. After Yeshua was crucified and cut off there

were still seven years left for Daniel’s people. What happened

during this time is that the followers of Yeshua went forth to all of

the Jews, both in Judea and all over the world, to preach the Gospel

of the Kingdom. Remember, the Gospel was to go to the Jew first

and then to the gentile. Within the remaining seven years, every

Jew in every city around the world was located, given the gospel of

Page 12: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

8

the Kingdom, and told about Yeshua the new High Priest. Once all

of the Jews received the good news of the Messiah, the seventy

weeks of Daniel ended along with the old covenant. The sons of

Aaron no longer held the office of High Priest. You could no longer

have your sins removed with an animal sacrifice at the Temple;

Yeshua was now to be your sacrifice and atonement would go

through Him.

YAH was not going to end the Old Covenant without

notifying His people that He had replaced it with something better.

He would also not allow His people to be without a sacrifice for the

next two thousand years. According to the Law, remission of sin

can only come through a blood sacrifice. Anyone who does not

offer an appropriate blood sacrifice to YEHOVAH will die in his sins.

From this point forward, anyone who accepts Yeshua to be his King

and Priest can obtain the blood sacrifice that He Himself offered for

us on the cross.

The end of the seventy weeks of Daniel took place around

the year 42 on the Julian calendar. From this point forward, you

could no longer access YAH through the sons of Aaron. Matters

concerning the Kingdom and access to YEHOVAH would now go

through Yeshua Messiah. YEHOVAH would no longer deal with man

through the Mosaic covenant where the sons of Aaron were

Priests. The Law was now officially transferred to Yeshua. Take note

that the Law was not done away with, it was transferred. The Law

was never done away with; instead, it was just transferred to

Yeshua, who is now both King and Priest of Israel.

It was at about this time that Paul and Peter received their

commission to take the Gospel to the Gentiles. They along with

those who received the Shekinah Glory in the upper room went to

all nations to spread the Gospel of the Kingdom to see what the

gentiles would do with it.

In this next verse, Gabriel is explaining what would happen

after the seventy weeks were over and as the time of the gentile’s

began.

27 …and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And its end will come with a flood; even to the end there will be war; desolations are determined. "And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate."

This scripture covers the period starting with the

destruction of the temple in AD 70, until the final forty-two months

at the end of the age. There are many scriptures about this forty-

two month period. Sometimes it is called “1260 days,” sometimes

forty-two months and sometimes a “times, time and half a time.”

All of these are talking about this same period of time when the

beast breaks his covenant with Judah. It will be during this three

and a half year period that YEHOVAH’s wrath will be poured out on

the Beast Empire and he will draw all the faithful to Himself.

The prince who is to come is easy to identify because we

know who the people were that destroyed Jerusalem and the

Temple. Gabriel first use of the word prince is in reference to the

true Messiah. So the prince who is to come is one who is similar to

the Messiah, but of course, he is not the true Messiah because he

is tied to the people who destroyed the temple. We all know that

the people who destroyed the temple were the Romans. What this

means is that the prince who is to come is tied to the Roman

Empire. It is easy to see who this prince is because this prince is

worshiped by the Holy Roman Catholic Church. He is the one who

is lawless because he nailed the law to the cross. Over time, his

name became known as Jesus. Jesus is the prince who is to come.

Page 14: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

10

He took the place of the true prince, Yeshua, who was cut off. I will

prove this and give many Biblical evidences throughout this book.

We all know that the word antichrist means, "in place of,"

so Jesus, the one who was to come, took the place of the true

Messiah. Those who follow this false messiah have done away with

the Law and they have changed times and season. Christianity is

based upon sun god worship, plain and simple. Their worship is

based upon the sun god cult that was created at the Tower of

Babel. Christianity does not keep a single commandment of the

Bible. Here are some examples of this:

• Instead of keeping the Passover Christianity keeps

Easter. It seems that everyone knows that Easter is “the

bare breasted goddess of fertility and sexual” desire

except for Christians.

• Instead of keeping the feast of Tabernacles, Christians

keep Christmas. How is it that Christians do not

understand that they are actually worshipping Nimrod

the founder of the sun god cult when they keep this

holiday?

• Instead of keeping the Sabbath, which is the seventh day

of the week, Christians worship on the first day of the

week and celebrate the “venerable day of the sun god,”

Sunday.

• The gospel of the Kingdom was replaced by the gospel of

grace. Christianity ignores the message of the Kingdom

because of the next item on this list.

• Yehovah’s word is about the institution of Divine

Law/Torah, but Christianity has taken the stance that the

Law was done away with. This makes Christianity

Lawless, and this ties Christianity to the lawless one.

Page 15: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

11

I could go on for many chapters to show how the Roman

form of Christianity abandoned the true Messiah and created a

lawless messiah of its own. There is a very distinct difference

between the prince that is to come, Jesus, and the true prince,

Yeshua; these where just a few of the hundreds of examples that I

could give.

“And its end will come with a flood.” The word flood is used

figuratively here. Strong’s defines flood as: a deluge (literally or

figuratively): - flood, outrageous, overflowing. With this definition

in mind, you can see that Jerusalem was figuratively flooded by the

Roman army and destroyed.

Now Gabriel goes on to say, “…even to the end there will

be war; desolations are determined.” Gabriel told us that this is

what is going to happen to Jerusalem from that point forward.

There have been around forty-nine wars fought over Jerusalem.

Jerusalem has remained completely desolate since that time. Even

today, the desolation continues with the Muslim Mosque setting

on the temple mound and every pagan religion being practiced in

Jerusalem.

The desolation was not contained just to Jerusalem,

however; during the time when the Roman Catholic Church reigned

supreme under the banner of Jesus Christ was the most desolate

time the earth has ever known. It was so desolate that it is called

the dark ages. It was not until the Church’s stranglehold on the

world was broken that the world started to experience some relief

from the desolations. Because of Great Britain’s and later the

United States movement toward Lawful principles, the earth has

seen a glimpse of the blessings that can come from Elohim. Even

then it is a far cry from what it could have been had we been

following the true Messiah.

Page 16: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

12

Now Gabriel’s message takes us to the end of the age. The

rest of what Gabriel said is yet in the future of those of us who are

alive today.

28 "And he will make a firm covenant with the many for one

week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice

and grain offering; and on the wing of abominations will come

one who makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one

that is decreed, is poured out on the one who makes desolate."

The Roman or Beast Empire, which now is manifest as the

ten toes of Daniel’s statue, who follows their anti-messiahs and

who has its power centered in the United Nations, will soon make

a covenant with the remnant of Daniel’s people, (the House of

Judah), which is modern day Israel. Remember, the beast is a

worldwide Empire that is still in control of the world today. It now

controls the world through the United Nations and the United

States is the leader of this federation. Satan, the beast who makes

desolate through his Beast Empire, under the banner of its false-

messiah, will soon make a covenant with the nations of the world

claiming that he can bring peace to the earth. I will talk more about

this later.

Since the rebirth of the nation of Israel, every President of

the U.S. has tried to cause Israel to make some type of covenant

with her enemies. It will be interesting to see how this will play out,

but Gabriel tells us that it has been decreed, “a complete

destruction.” All those who chose not to follow the true Messiah

will be destroyed. Like in the days of Noah, the flood of Elohim’s

indignation will soon come upon the earth and there will be a

complete destruction of the wicked.

As you can see the seventy weeks of Daniel is about the

transference and superseding of the Priesthood from the sons of

Page 17: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

13

Aaron to Yeshua Messiah, along with a brief description of the

times of the gentiles.

The purpose of this beast empire is to be a deluding

influence. Those who will just blindly follow this beast when it does

not follow the dictates and patterns laid down by the Bible will be

exposed for their hatred of the true Elohim. Yeshua told us that if

we love Him we would keep His commandments. Since Yeshua and

the Father are one, Yeshua’s commandments are the Father’s

commandments, so if we love Yeshua we will keep the

commandments as they are written down for us in the Torah/Law.

Page 18: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

14

Daniel 10, 11 and 12 The events of Daniel 10 and 11 were all fulfilled in the past.

They took place from the time of Daniel up to the rise of the Roman

Empire. Many want to put these events into the future and this is

why dispensational prophecy does not make any sense. The events

of Daniel 11 actually describe the Beast Empire during the seventy

weeks of Daniel. They describe the fall of the Babylonian Empire;

the rise and fall of the Medio-Persian Empire; the rise and fall of

the Grecian Empire; then the rise of the Roman Empire. They

describe how the Roman Empire came to power and how it became

the dominating force at the time when Yeshua walked the earth. A

good article that describes these events is found on the web site

herealittletherealittle.net. Read the article entitled Daniel 11,

which an expose outlining the historic events described in Daniel

11.

On the other hand, Daniel 12 is looking into the future and

is speaking of the end-times. In Daniel 12: 11-12 the angel gives a

timeline for us to use:

Dan 12:11-12 "And from the time that the regular sacrifice is

abolished, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there will

be 1,290 days. (12) "How blessed is he who keeps waiting and

attains to the 1,335 days!

Notice that blessed is he who keeps waiting and attains to

the 1335th day. This goes along with the book of Revelations where

many times the phrase “he who overcomes” is used. He who

overcomes will attain. Here in the book of Daniel it is telling us

exactly how long we have to wait to attain. By “attain,” the angel is

talking about attaining the Kingdom. This verse gives a very precise

time for us to wait, and it places a marker on the timeline. When

we reach this point in time, the Kingdom will be here and then we

can attain it.

The days as used here are prophetic days, or in other

words, a day is equivalent to a year. This is reasonable to assume,

since we know that the seventy weeks of Daniel were also given, as

a day equals a year. First, the angel tells us that from the time that

the regular sacrifice is abolished until this abomination is set up will

be 1290 days or prophetic years. Then he said that another span of

time will elapse with the abomination of desolation set up and it

would be 1335 days or prophetic years. After this amount of time,

those looking for the Messiah will attain the Kingdom.

The regular sacrifice was given at the Temple in Jerusalem

twice a day for hundreds of years without ceasing. This started at

the time of Moses and went on without ceasing until the

Babylonians sacked Jerusalem. This sacrifice is called the “morning

and evening oblation.” When Babylon sacked Jerusalem this

sacrifice was abolished until the Jews returned to Jerusalem and

started giving the daily oblation once again.

So the regular sacrifice was abolished when the Babylonians

sacked Jerusalem in 597BC. If you add 1290 years starting at 597BC,

you come to 691AD. This was the year that the Dome of the Rock

was completed on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. This is the

abomination of desolation referred to by this angel. Now if you add

the 1335 years to the time when the abomination was set up you

come to the year 2026AD. This is when we will be able to attain the

Kingdom. Remember this date because you will see it again, and I

will present a few more witnesses to confirm this date.

Next, we will move to the book of Revelations and you will

see how it continues the prophetic picture that was begun in the

book of Daniel.

Rev 1-3 – Message to the Churches (42AD-

81AD)

After the resurrection and ascension of Yeshua Messiah,

the Apostles were sent forth to evangelize the world. They started

with the nation of Israel and evangelized the Jews (the House of

Judah). After this, their commission expanded to bring in the

gentiles (the House of Israel). All these converts from the gentiles

will eventually be grafted into the Commonwealth of Israel. The

Jews do not have to be graphed in because they are still married to

YEHOVAH. The House of Israel, on the other hand, was divorced by

YEHOVAH and they returned to being gentiles. This will be a key to

understanding end time events. At this time the Apostles were not

bringing these coverts back to the Land of Israel because all of Israel

was to be scattered throughout the nations until the end when the

Messiah will return and gather Israel to Himself in the Promised

Land of Israel.*

Out of this evangelization, many churches sprang up

throughout the earth. When I say Churches, I mean Messianic

Assemblies. I will use the term Church because it is what we are

used to here in the west.

As we can see by the messages to the seven churches of

Asia, the Church as a whole had not been perfected yet. Before the

Church is perfected, it will have to go through the fire of tribulation.

Like gold, which is put through the fire to draw out its impurities,

the Church has to go through the fire before it will become pure.

Whenever one sees the word Church, one needs to

remember that much of the Church has fallen into apostasy and

does not follow the true dictates of the Bible. As such, there is the

true Church that follows the Bible and the false Church that does

not follow the Bible. Mainline Christianity believes that the

Law/Torah was done away with, and they still keep pagan festivals

such as Easter, Christmas and they worship on “the venerable day

of the sun” (Sunday). This goes for the Catholic Church and the

Page 21: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

17

Protestant Church. The Protestants started to reform but never

finished the process and as such still fall under the umbrella of the

mother Church.

All of these churches consider themselves as being a

separate entity from Israel and many believe that they replaced

Israel. This is not the truth. The Apostles made it very clear that the

converts to the faith become part of the Commonwealth of Israel.

In Ephesians 2:11-13, Paul told us, “…remember that you were at

that time separated from Messiah, alienated from the

commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of

promise, having no hope and without Elohim in the world. But now

in Messiah Yeshua you who once were far off have been brought

near in the blood of Messiah.” Israel is a commonwealth designed

for the welfare of its people. It is through the High Priest of Israel

that our sins are atoned for providing life. This is done in

accordance with the Law/Torah. You cannot have your sins atoned

for outside of the commonwealth of Israel where Yeshua Messiah

is the High Priest and where the Torah is the Law of the Land.

Through the blood of Yeshua, we are allowed into the

commonwealth where we have access to all of the covenant

promises.

Notice that Yeshua picked seven churches in which to send

his message. This is because the Church is represented by the

number seven. Even though there were more than seven churches

at the time, Yeshua picked these seven to represent them all.

The item in the temple that represents the Church is the

Menorah. The Menorah has seven branches and it produces light.

The menorah is representative of the Church, which is to be a light

to the world. If you are a Jew, you would call it a Synagogue.

The message of Yeshua to the Church, which is represented

by these seven churches, is that we are going to go through a time

of purification and those who come out of the other end, those

who overcome and still have “the word of the testimony (Torah)

and the blood of the Lamb (Yeshua)” will be saved.

Page 22: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

18

The Torah is the testimony of YEHOVAH. This is why the

“Ark of the Covenant” is also called the “Ark of the Testimony.” A

testimony and a covenant are the same thing, and if we are to live

in Elohim’s Kingdom, it is by this covenant or testimony in which

we live.

Israel is a commonwealth of people who accept Elohim’s

Law and who wish to live by His Law. YEHOVAH is going to institute

divine Law on the earth and those who reject His Law will not be

invited to stay. The Torah is the written Word and Yeshua is the

Word made flesh. Yeshua the Word made flesh will rule according

to the written Word or Torah/Law. This is the message that the

Church must understand if it is going to overcome. Israel is the

Kingdom, and it is ruled by the Word.

*When YEHOVAH cast the northern Tribes of Israel (the House of Israel) out of the Land, they became gentiles and they were sifted through all the nations. This process caused all nations to be, to some extent, part of the lost tribes of Israel. This was part of YAH’s plan of redemption to the nations. By doing this, YEHOVAH created one ethnic group. The apostle Paul said that there is only “Jew and gentile.” All the gentiles have been made one through the sifting of the lost tribes of Israel through the nations.

Rev 5 – The Book with the Seven Seals

(Around 81AD) It is believed that the Apostle John had his vision of the book

of Revelations around 81AD. In his vision, he saw future events. In

his vision, he saw one who would break the seals of a document

that was kept in the throne room of heaven. As the seals were

broken, events would begin to play out on earth, as ordained by

the Almighty.

In order to understand the seven seals you need to learn

the background of what this book is. It is a Ketubah or marriage

contract.

The Ketubah

In the Hebrew culture, when a girl and boy get married they

create a Ketubah. The Ketubah is what we would call a marriage

contract. When a boy finds a girl who he wants to marry, he takes

his parents and goes to the girl’s house. At the house, the boy will

knock on the door and see if the girl would open up the door to

him. If she does then the boy and his parents sit down over a meal

with the potential bride and her parents and they work out a

marriage contract, or Ketubah.

The Ketubah stipulates what each of the parties would bring

into the marriage, and what the rules and regulations of the

marriage would be. When the couple work out all the details of the

Ketubah then seven people would put their seal on the contract.

These seven people were normally the Fathers, the minister, and

other witnesses to the contract, normally kinsmen, or relatives.

When the Ketubah is agreed upon and sealed, it is a binding

contract and the couple is considered betrothed.

If the terms of the Ketubah are broken then there is a

penalty for breaking the terms. If the bride is found to be

Page 24: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

20

adulterous then the husband could either, put her away, or he

could pay the price for her sins and redeem her.

The question is where did the Hebrew come up with this

custom? The answer is that they got it from Mt. Sinai! When

YEHOVAH gave the Law to Israel, what he was doing is creating a

Ketubah. At Mt. Sinai Moses was a mediator for the marriage

between the children of Israel and YEHOVAH. The Law or Torah was

a Ketubah written out, which stipulated the conditions of the

marriage. We see this Ketubah, starting in Exodus 19 and going all

the way through Exodus 23 where YEHOVAH spelled out the terms

of the Ketubah through Moses. Then in Exodus 24 Moses read all

of the terms of their marriage to the children of Israel, and in one

voice they all said, “All the words which YEHOVAH has spoken we

will do!"

(Exodus 24:3-11) Then Moses came and recounted to the people all the words of YEHOVAH and all the ordinances; and all the people answered with one voice, and said, "All the words which YEHOVAH has spoken we will do!" And Moses wrote down all the words of YEHOVAH. Then he arose early in the morning, and built an altar at the foot of the mountain with twelve pillars for the twelve tribes of Israel. And he sent young men of the sons of Israel, and they offered burnt offerings and sacrificed young bulls as peace offerings to YEHOVAH. And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and the other half of the blood he sprinkled on the altar. Then he took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people; and they said, "All that YEHOVAH has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient!" So Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, "Behold the blood of the covenant, which YEHOVAH has made with you in accordance with all these words." Then Moses went up with Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and they saw the Elohim of Israel; and under His feet there appeared to be a

Page 25: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

21

pavement of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself. Yet He did not stretch out His hand against the nobles of the sons of Israel; and they beheld Elohim, and they ate and drank.

As you can see, after the children of Israel agreed to the

terms of the Ketubah, Moses made it official with a blood sacrifice,

which he sprinkled over all the people. Then the Nobles of Israel

went up to dine with YEHOVAH where the Ketubah was sealed.

When the Nobles of Israel went up the mountain, it was to put their

seals on the Ketubah, which YEHOVAH then kept in His heavenly

Throne Room. This is where the Hebrew custom for weddings came

from. The children of Israel were repeating what they had seen

YEHOVAH do at Mt. Sinai when He married Israel.

Yeshua will soon repeat this very thing when we renew our

covenant with YEHOVAH. Yeshua alluded to this with His letter to

Sardis, ‘Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My

voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with

him, and he with Me.” (Rev 3:20) Like the boy who finds the girl of

his dreams and wants to marry her, he will knock on the door of

her house and ask to come in so that he can make his proposal of

marriage. If you open the door for Yeshua then you are willing to

hear the question. If you do not open the door then you are not

willing to hear Yeshua’s proposal. If you open the door to Yeshua

then He will point to the Torah and say, are you willing. Then you

will have to decide.

This is what Yeshua is referring to when he said that He will

knock at the door and those who are interested He will dine with.

If we are willing to live according to the Ketubah then we will take

communion with Him. We already know what the conditions of the

Ketubah are because they are written in the Torah. Those of us who

agree to the terms will be gathered together for the wedding

supper of the Lamb. There we will renew our covenant by the blood

Page 26: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

22

of Yeshua and seal it with seven seals, just as it was at Mt Sinai the

first time.

One might ask, what happened to the Ketubah that was

created and sealed on Mt. Sinai? The answer is that we see the

Ketubah from the old covenant in Revelations 5:

And I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals. And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?" And no one in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look into it. And I began to weep greatly, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look into it; and one of the elders said to me, "Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals." And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of Elohim, sent out into all the earth. And He came, and He took it out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne. And when He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy art Thou to take the book, and to break its seals; for Thou wast slain, and didst purchase for Elohim with Thy blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation…”

This document, that no one could open, is the Ketubah that

YEHOVAH and the Nobles of Israel signed and sealed on Mt. Sinai.

The Nobles represented the people of Israel and ratified the

covenant with YEHOVAH. While there, they signed and sealed the

covenant as you would any official document.

The reason that John began to weep is because he

understood what this document is, and he understood the

Page 27: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

23

ramifications if no one were willing or able to open this document.

If no one were willing or able to open the Ketubah then all of

humanity would be condemned by it, “For all have sinned and

fallen short of the glory of Elohim.”

Praise YEHOVAH on High, for He sent His son to pay the

price for our transgressions. There is one who is willing and able to

break the seals of the Ketubah, and His name is Yeshua (YEHOVAH

is salvation). Because Yeshua was justified by the Law because He

lived a sinless life according to the Ketubah, which is the Holy Law

of Elohim, and because He was willing to pay the price for our sins

by giving His life for ours on the cross, He is able to open the

Ketubah that would condemn us. He saved us! Praise YEHOVAH!

The statute of this Law that says, “Anyone who sins will be

put to death” condemned us. However, there is a statute in this

Law that provides for forgiveness of sin through the sacrificial

system. Yeshua became that sacrifice for us. Those who will come

back to the covenant through the blood of the Lamb will be saved

because of YEHOVAH’s mercy that was part of His covenant.

Now you must be wondering, how can this be, because

when Yeshua opens the seals of this book judgments appear? The

answer is that most Bible commentators focus only on the negative

judgments. Judgements can also be favorable when we are judged

as being faithful. In reality, the book of Revelations is revealing two

groups of people being judged, those who love YEHOVAH and His

commandments and those who hate YEHOVAH and refuse to keep

His commandments. Those who love Him will be judged favorably,

through the blood of the Lamb, and will be given the Kingdom, but

those who hate Him will be judged and condemned to everlasting

death.

As you read through Revelations you will notice that the

scene will change systematically, sometimes focusing on those who

are receiving punishment for their refusal to repent, and

Page 28: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

24

sometimes focusing on those being rewarded for their repentance

and for their faithfulness. YAH is dealing with two Kingdoms

simultaneously, His Kingdom and Satan’s kingdom. As I stated

earlier, the true Church has to go through the fire in order to be

purified. If you are a gentile, you can forget about a rapture, you

are going through the fire of purification.

Now that Yeshua has removed the seals, the blessings and

the curses described by the Ketubah are being released on

mankind. Each seal represents something that is released on the

earth in its prescribed time according to the set times established

by Yehovah. As you read this book, you will see that the blessings

and curses have been progressively released. Very soon, we will see

the crescendo of judgement as YAH pours out the bowls of wrath

on an evil world. I hope all of you are willing to repent and return

to the Ketubah where the blessing is.

The Law (the Ketubah) does not save us; the shed blood of

the Lamb of Elohim saves us. However, Yeshua did not shed His

blood so that we could remain in our sin. When He gave His life to

pay for our sins, it was to give us the opportunity to repent and

return to the covenant. If you will recall, the first message that

Yeshua had for us when He began His ministry is, “Repent for the

Kingdom of Elohim is at hand.” The thing that we are to repent of

is the fact that we have all walked away from the Law of the

Kingdom. When we return to His Law, it is there that we find the

Kingdom and the mercies of the King. It is there that the statute of

the Law that provides for the Lamb to take away our sins is made

available to us.

Yeshua did not come to rewrite the principles of the

Ketubah. Elohim’s Law is the same from everlasting to everlasting.

He does not change. Like all Biblical prophets, Yeshua came to

direct us back to the safety of YEHOVAH’s covenant. It is there that

we find salvation, through the blood of the Lamb.

Page 29: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

25

When we redo our marriage vows with YEHOVAH there will

be four changes to the covenant. These do not change the structure

of the covenant; instead, they are changes in the way the covenant

is administered. The first is circumcision; instead of being

circumcised in the flesh, we will now be circumcised of the heart.

The second is the sacrifice; instead of sacrificing animals, we will

give the sacrifice of obedience. Third, the High Priest of Israel will

no longer be the sons of Aaron; the High Priest is now Yeshua.

Forth, is the Kingship; our King is now Yeshua the son of David, after

the order of Melchizedek. These are the only changes. (See my

book entitled Knowing YEHOVAH for an in depth clarification this).

The commandments are good and they create a good and loving

society for those who embrace them. We do not want to do away

with the Law, as Paul stated, “the Law is Holy.”

YEHOVAH told us what is going to change when He enacts

our new covenant with Him. "But this is the covenant which I will

make with the house of Israel after those days," declares YEHOVAH,

"I will put My Law within them, and on their heart I will write it; and

I will be their Elohim, and they shall be My people.” (Jer 31:33, Heb

10:16) The change that YEHOVAH is enacting with the new

covenant is not going to be a change in the Law. The thing that will

change is going to be the hearts of men.

YEHOVAH could not care for His people under the old

covenant because man continued to rebel against Him. The

Ketubah was no longer valid and became obsolete because all have

walked away from it. We have all sinned. YEHOVAH was not

allowed to be the Elohim of His people because of rebellion. This is

what YEHOVAH said through His prophet Jeremiah:

"But this is what I commanded them, saying, 'Obey

My voice, and I will be your Elohim, and you will be My

people; and you will walk in all the way which I command

Page 30: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

26

you, that it may be well with you.’ Yet they did not obey or

incline their ear, but walked in their own counsels and in the

stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and

not forward.” (Jer 7:23-24)

At Mt. Sinai YEHOVAH told his people that if they would

obey Him He would be their Elohim and they would be His people.

However, all of YEHOVAH’s people have rebelled and have not

listened. They have not made YEHOVAH their Elohim.

It is no better today than it was then. Today the people who

proclaim to be the people of Elohim and of the Bible do not care

about YEHOVAH’s commandments. They keep a false sabbath

called “the venerable day of the sun god” (Sunday); they worship

the goddess Easter and try to dress it up by calling it resurrection

day; and they do not even know what the feast of Tabernacles is,

instead they keep a false feast called Christmas. They do not know

the true name of Elohim because they do not know the true Elohim,

and they do not care what his name is.

Because Yeshua paid the price for our sins and because the

Law is being transferred over Him, He is able to open the seals on

the Ketubah. As He opens each seal judgments are released;

judgments of blessings and judgments of curses, just as they are

written in the Ketubah they will be released; the curses for those

who are in rebellion; and the blessing for those who will repent.

These blessings and curses are spelled out in Deuteronomy 28. This

is part of the Ketubah. It is a lengthy verse, but it is important to

understand what you are in for if you do not keep the Law. If you

decide to repent and turn back to the Law, you will reap blessings,

or if you decide to continue in your false religions, you will reap

curses. Remember the blessings and curses written below are what

are being released when Yeshua opens the seals in the book of

Revelations. The first part is the blessings you will receive if decide

Page 31: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

27

you want to keep the Law, and the second part is the curses if you

refuse to keep the Law:

The Blessings

"Now it shall be, if you will diligently obey YEHOVAH your Elohim, being careful to do all His commandments which I command you today, YEHOVAH your Elohim will set you high above all the nations of the earth. "And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you will obey YEHOVAH your Elohim. "Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country. "Blessed shall be the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground and the offspring of your beasts, the increase of your herd and the young of your flock. "Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. "Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out. "YEHOVAH will cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you; they shall come out against you one way and shall flee before you seven ways. "YEHOVAH will command the blessing upon you in your barns and in all that you put your hand to, and He will bless you in the land which YEHOVAH your Elohim gives you. "YEHOVAH will establish you as a holy people to Himself, as He swore to you, if you will keep the commandments of YEHOVAH your Elohim, and walk in His ways. "So all the peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of YEHOVAH; and they shall be afraid of you. "And YEHOVAH will make you abound in prosperity, in the offspring of your body and in the offspring of your beast and in the produce of your ground, in the land which YEHOVAH swore to your fathers to give you. "YEHOVAH will open for you His good storehouse, the heavens, to give rain to your land in its season and to bless all the work of your hand; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. "And YEHOVAH shall make you the head and not the tail, and you only shall be above, and you shall not be underneath, if you will listen to the commandments of YEHOVAH your Elohim, which I charge you today, to observe them carefully, and do not turn aside from any of the words which I command you today, to the right or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.

Page 32: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

28

The Church of Jesus Christ has taught that the Law, which is

also our covenant with Elohim, has been done away with. This is

wrong. Blessings only come to those who keep the

commandments. We see the results of these blessings in the book

of Revelations 19:7-9, “Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory

to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has

made herself ready." And it was given to her to clothe herself in fine

linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of

the saints. And he said to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those who are

invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" And he said to me,

"These are true words of Elohim” Righteous acts are defined as, acts

performed according to the Law. The blessing is for those who

choose to do their best to keep YEHOVAH’s commandment not

adding or taking away from them. These receive the blessing and

they receive eternal life through the blood of the Lamb. This

message runs throughout the Bible and it is very plain in its

delivery.

On the other hand, those who refuse the Law are cursed.

You will notice that the curse goes on seemingly forever. YEHOVAH

is very angry with those who refuse to obey and keep His

commandments:

The Curses

(Deu 28:1-68) "But it shall come about, if you will not obey YEHOVAH your Elohim, to observe to do all His commandments and His statutes with which I charge you today, that all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you. "Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the country. "Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl. "Cursed shall be the offspring of your body and the produce of your ground, the increase of your herd and the young of your flock. "Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you be when you go out. "YEHOVAH will send upon you curses, confusion, and rebuke,

Page 33: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

29

in all you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and until you perish quickly, on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken Me. "YEHOVAH will make the pestilence cling to you until He has consumed you from the land, where you are entering to possess it. "YEHOVAH will smite you with consumption and with fever and with inflammation and with fiery heat and with the sword and with blight and with mildew, and they shall pursue you until you perish. "And the heaven which is over your head shall be bronze, and the earth which is under you, iron. "YEHOVAH will make the rain of your land powder and dust; from heaven it shall come down on you until you are destroyed. "YEHOVAH will cause you to be defeated before your enemies; you shall go out one way against them, but you shall flee seven ways before them, and you shall be an example of terror to all the kingdoms of the earth. "And your carcasses shall be food to all birds of the sky and to the beasts of the earth, and there shall be no one to frighten them away. "YEHOVAH will smite you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors and with the scab and with the itch, from which you cannot be healed. "YEHOVAH will smite you with madness and with blindness and with bewilderment of heart; and you shall grope at noon, as the blind man gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways; but you shall only be oppressed and robbed continually, with none to save you. "You shall betroth a wife, but another man shall violate her; you shall build a house, but you shall not live in it; you shall plant a vineyard, but you shall not use its fruit...."Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people, while your eyes shall look on and yearn for them continually; but there shall be nothing you can do. "A people whom you do not know shall eat up the produce of your ground and all your labors, and you shall never be anything but oppressed and crushed continually. "And you shall be driven mad by the sight of what you see. "YEHOVAH will strike you on the knees and legs with sore boils, from which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to the crown of your head. "YEHOVAH will bring you and your king, whom you shall set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your fathers have known, and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone. "And you shall become a horror, a proverb, and a taunt among all

the people where YEHOVAH will drive you. "You shall bring out much seed to the field but you shall gather in little, for the locust shall consume it. "You shall have sons and daughters but they shall not be yours, for they shall go into captivity. "The cricket shall possess all your trees and the produce of your ground. "The alien who is among you shall rise above you higher and higher, but you shall go down lower and lower. "He shall lend to you, but you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail. "So all these curses shall come on you and pursue you and overtake you until you are destroyed, because you would not obey YEHOVAH your Elohim by keeping His commandments and His statutes which He commanded you. "And they shall become a sign and a wonder on you and your descendants forever. "Because you did not serve YEHOVAH your Elohim with joy and a glad heart, for the abundance of all things; therefore you shall serve your enemies whom YEHOVAH shall send against you, in hunger, in thirst, in nakedness, and in the lack of all things; and He will put an iron yoke on your neck until He has destroyed you. "YEHOVAH will bring a nation against you from afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle swoops down, a nation whose language you shall not understand, a nation of fierce countenance who shall have no respect for the old, nor show favor to the young. "Moreover, it shall eat the offspring of your herd and the produce of your ground until you are destroyed, who also leaves you no grain, new wine, or oil, nor the increase of your herd or the young of your flock until they have caused you to perish. "And it shall besiege you in all your towns until your high and fortified walls in which you trusted come down throughout your land, and it shall besiege you in all your towns throughout your land which YEHOVAH your Elohim has given you. "Then you shall eat the offspring of your own body, the flesh of your sons and of your daughters whom YEHOVAH your Elohim has given you, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy shall oppress you. "The man who is refined and very delicate among you shall be hostile toward his brother and toward the wife he cherishes and toward the rest of his children who remain, so that he will not give even one of them any of the flesh of his children which he shall eat, since he has nothing else left, during the siege and the

distress by which your enemy shall oppress you in all your towns. "The refined and delicate woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for delicateness and refinement, shall be hostile toward the husband she cherishes and toward her son and daughter, and toward her afterbirth which issues from between her legs and toward her children whom she bears; for she shall eat them secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the distress by which your enemy shall oppress you in your towns. "If you are not careful to observe all the words of this law which are written in this book, to fear this honored and awesome name, YEHOVAH your Elohim, then YEHOVAH will bring extraordinary plagues on you and your descendants, even severe and lasting plagues, and miserable and chronic sicknesses. "And He will bring back on you all the diseases of Egypt of which you were afraid, and they shall cling to you. "Also every sickness and every plague which, not written in the book of this law, YEHOVAH will bring on you until you are destroyed. "Then you shall be left few in number, whereas you were as the stars of heaven for multitude, because you did not obey YEHOVAH your Elohim. "And it shall come about that as YEHOVAH delighted over you to prosper you, and multiply you, so YEHOVAH will delight over you to make you perish and destroy you; and you shall be torn from the land where you are entering to possess it. "Moreover, YEHOVAH will scatter you among all peoples, from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there you shall serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your fathers have not known. "And among those nations you shall find no rest, and there shall be no resting place for the sole of your foot; but there YEHOVAH will give you a trembling heart, failing of eyes, and despair of soul. "So your life shall hang in doubt before you; and you shall be in dread night and day, and shall have no assurance of your life. "In the morning you shall say, 'Would that it were evening!' And at evening you shall say, 'Would that it were morning!' because of the dread of your heart which you dread, and for the sight of your eyes which you shall see. "And YEHOVAH will bring you back to Egypt in ships, by the way about which I spoke to you, 'You will never see it again!' And there you

32

shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and female slaves, but there will be no buyer."

As you can see, YEHOVAH is very angry over those who

rebel against His Law. I hope you are willing to repent because if

you are not willing to repent and embrace the Holy Law and

become part of the Kingdom then these curses are what you have

to look forward to!

Now that you understand what is happening after Yeshua

opens the seals we can start to explain each of the seals. The seals

affect all of humanity as the blessings and curses are poured out.

The First Seal (96 – 192AD)

This is the beginning of the “times of the gentiles.” Israel

has been sacked by the Roman Legions and is no longer a nation.

YAH’s focus is no longer on Israel; instead, it is now on the nation

that dominates the world, the Roman Empire. YAH has placed the

Gospel in the midst of the Empire to see what the gentiles will do

with His commandments. You will see as we go through the book

of Revelations, its primary focus is on this Empire. The seals give us

a picture of what happens through time as the beast nation rules

the world.

Rev 6:1-2 And I saw when the Lamb broke one of the seven seals,

and I heard one of the four living creatures saying as with a voice

of thunder, "Come." (2) And I looked, and behold, a white horse,

and he who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him;

and he went out conquering, and to conquer.

Horsemen represent war. These first four seals depicting

the four horsemen are the advancement of the beast empire, who

is expanding its territories by conquering surrounding states. The

number four is normally indicative of the spread of evil.

This heathen empire is contrary to the living Elohim, is anti-

Israel and anti-Elohim. At this point in history, it was called the

Roman Empire. This is the final beast of Daniels statue, which is also

called the “beast of the sea,” “breaking and grinding the nations

into pieces.”

This first seal describes the Nerva–Antonine dynasty of the

Roman Empire. The Nerva–Antonine dynasty was a dynasty of

seven Roman Emperors who ruled over the Roman Empire from 96

AD to 192 AD. These Emperors are Nerva, Trajan, Hadrian,

Antoninus Pius, Lucius Verus, Marcus Aurelius, and Commodus.

The bow was the symbol of this dynasty.

Page 38: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

34

During this time, the Roman Empire was going out

conquering and expanding its borders. If you look up the word

crown used here, you will see that it is referring to a laurel wreath,

which were commonly worn by the Roman Emperors.

The Second, Seal (193 – 222AD)

Rev 6:3-4 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

As you are probably starting to see, the book of Revelations

is a progressive historical fulfillment of prophecy. Every prophecy

in the Bible is specifically speaking about a specific period in history.

The second seal describes the Severan dynasty, which was

a Roman imperial Dynasty ruling the Roman Empire between 193

and 235. The dynasty was founded by the Roman general Septimus

Severus, who rose to power as the victor of the 193-197 civil war.

The reign of this dynasty resulted in a period of revolution

and civil war. There were twenty-seven contenders for the throne

during this time. This civil unrest allowed the Germanic tribes to

invade the western providences of the empire. The sword was the

symbol of this dynasty.

35

The Third Seal (223-235AD)

Rev 6:5-6 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

Severus Alexander was Roman Emperor from 222 to 235

and the last emperor of the Severan dynasty. He succeeded his

cousin Elagabalus upon his assassination in 222, and was ultimately

assassinated himself, marking the epoch event for the coming crisis

of the third century. After nearly 50 years of civil wars and foreign

invasion his reign saw much pestilence, and collapse of the

monetary economy, thus the balances in his hand. During his reign,

a coin was struck showing the balance. Due to the decline in

agriculture, the necessities of life become scarce bringing the high

price for wheat and barley. The oil and the wine were taxed items

so they were carefully monitored in order to bring in the highest

revenues to the government.

Forth Seal (235 – 284AD)

Rev 6:7-8 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Page 40: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

36

The Gordian dynasty reigned from 235-292. This was the

time known as the Crisis of the Third Century. The Roman Empire

nearly collapsed under the pressures of invasion, civil war, plague,

and economic depression. All of this caused the death of at least

one fourth of the Roman citizens.

By 268, the empire had split into three competing states:

the Gallic Empire, including the Roman provinces of Gaul, Britannia

and (briefly) Hispania; the Palmyrene Empire, including the eastern

provinces of Syria Palaestina and Aegyptus; and the Italian-

centered and independent Roman Empire, proper, between them.

Later, Aurelian (270–275) reunited the empire; the crisis ended

with the ascension and reforms of Diocletian in 284.

The crisis resulted in such profound changes in the empire's

institutions, society, economic life and, eventually, religion, that it

is increasingly seen by most historians as defining the transition

between the historical periods of classical antiquity and late

antiquity.

Fifth Seal (Historical Overview)

Rev 6:9-11 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of Elohim, and for the testimony which they held: And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

Page 41: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

37

The followers of Messiah were being unmercifully

persecuted during the first, second and third centuries. Followers

of Messiah were murdered in every unspeakable way during this

time. These imperial persecutions are well known and are

documented in Fox’s Book of Martyrs. These imperial persecutions

are also known as the ten persecutions:

• First Persecution, Nero, A.D. 67

• Second Persecution, Domitian, A.D. 81

• Third Persecution, Trajan, A.D. 108

• Fourth Persecution, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, A.D. 162

• Fifth Persecution, Severus, A.D. 192

• Sixth Persecution, Maximus, A.D. 235

• Seventh Persecution, Decius, A.D. 249

• Eighth Persecution, Valerian, A.D. 257

• Ninth Persecution, Aurelian, A.D. 274

• Tenth Persecution, Diocletian, A.D. 303

All of these Christians were slain because “they kept the

word of Elohim and for the testimony they held.” Remember they

did not have the New Testament as cannon at this point; that came

later. The gospels and the writings of the apostles were around, but

they had not officially been made a part of cannon yet. To the early

Christians the Torah in light of the risen Messiah was cannon, and

that was the testimony they held.

Like the blood of Abel, the blood of these martyrs was

crying out to YEHOVAH for justice. These persecutions were not

over. The fifth seal consists of those who have been killed and those

who would be killed. Through the centuries, the true believers who

have tried to keep the Torah and the Sabbaths have always been

persecuted by the Beast Empire.

Sixth Seal (284-313AD) Rev 6:12-17 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

The sun, moon and stars are simply a reference to the world

governing powers. Mountains, island and rocks represent

prophetic kingdoms and people. Since the Tower of Babel, all

paganism has evolved around sun, moon, and star worship. The

earthquake is the split that took place in the Roman Empire

because of the before mentioned troubles. All of the civil unrest

had finally torn the kingdom apart.

This is when Constantine came on the scene. He ruled

during the Roman era called the “Tetrarchy and Constantinian

Dynasty from 284-364AD.” During this time, the Empire was

divided into four main regions; each having an Emperor, and these

regions were each subdivided into provinces, each providence

having an Emperor. During Constantine’s rein, he subdued three of

the main provinces, the Maxentian province, the Licinius province

and the Diocletian province, which was named according to who

ruled the province (306AD). By doing this, Constantine became the

controlling Emperor in all of the Roman Empire. In 313AD, he freed

the Christians and made Christianity the official state religion.

39

This fulfilled Daniel’s prophecy, which said, “As for the ten

horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise

after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will

subdue three kings.”

The ten horns is the beast empire, the ten kings are the ten

kings mentioned above and the one who will arise who is different

is Constantine. These three emperors were very cruel to the

Christians, especially Diocletian who had vowed to extinguish all

Christians. When their kingdoms were taken away by Constantine

these superstitious men thought that the wrath of Elohim had

come upon the earth. Because of their cruelty toward the

Christians, they were tormented. Diocletian died insane,

Maximilian committed suicide, Licinius was tormented and died of

a strange disease.

Rev 7 - The Great Multitude (AD 313-321)

7: 1-3 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of

the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, so that no

wind should blow on the earth or on the sea or on any tree. (2)

And I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun,

having the seal of the living Elohim; and he cried out with a loud

voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth

There and the sea, (3) saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea

or the trees, until we have sealed the bond-servants of our Elohim

on their foreheads.”

The number four represents the spread of evil. The wind

that the angels were holding back was the Holy Spirit or the Word

of Elohim. In other words, they would not allow the people to have

the Bible. The earth is the false church, and the sea is the beast

empire and the trees are the tribes of that empire. This is all

pointing to the deliberate discard for the Bible.

The bondservants are those who would not deviate from

the commandments of the Torah. Because of this YAH commands

that they be sealed before judgments are rendered on those who

disregard the commandments. The seal that the bondservants

receive are similar to the “mark of the beast,” except that rather

than being marked for disobedience the bondservants are being

marked for obedience. All people will receive a mark, it is just a

matter of if it for obedience or disobedience. This mark is created

by what day of worship one keeps; is it the Sabbath as is required

by the Creator, or is going to be the venereal day of the sun god

(Sunday) required by the beast.

The first thing YEHOVAH did after creating the heavens and

the earth was to establish the Sabbath: Gen 2: 1-25 says, “Thus the

heavens and the earth were completed, and all their hosts. By the

seventh day Elohim completed His work which He had done, and He

rested on the seventh day from all His work, which He had done.

Page 45: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

41

Then Elohim blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it

He rested from all His work, which Elohim had created and made.”

After completion of His creation, the first thing YEHOVAH did was

to sanctify the seventh day of the week. To sanctify means to set

something apart for a special purpose. There are a couple of

purposes for the Sabbath. One, it identifies the creator. Two, the

Sabbath is a sign throughout all generations that those who love

YEHOVAH will continue to keep the seventh day Sabbath signifying

that they are worshiping the true creator. We will get into this a

little later. Third, the Sabbath is a covenant. We will talk about this

first.

In the Law of Moses we read, “Therefore, you are to observe

the Sabbath, for it is holy to you. Everyone who profanes it shall

surely be put to death; for whoever does any work on it, that

person shall be cut off from among his people. For six days work

may be done, but on the seventh day there is a Sabbath of complete

rest, holy to YEHOVAH; whoever does any work on the Sabbath

day shall surely be put to death. So the sons of Israel shall observe

the Sabbath, to celebrate the Sabbath throughout their generations

as a perpetual covenant.” (Gen 31: 13-16) As you can see, the

keeping of the Sabbath establishes a perpetual covenant that is

required for YEHOVAH’s people. Anyone who does not keep this

covenant is put to death.

The Sabbath is a covenant within the greater covenant of

the Torah. The purpose of this covenant within the covenant is to

measure our obedience. This covenant is required for all who want

to enter the Kingdom. Christianity says that this covenant is only

for the Jews. The problem with this statement is that the Apostles

made it very clear that those who become part of Elohim’s

Kingdom are grafted into the “The Common Wealth of Israel.” Since

we are grafted into Israel, it stands to reason that we have to keep

the Law of Israel, along with the Jews.

Page 46: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

42

Do not let anyone mislead you; this scripture plainly says

that anyone who does not keep the covenant of the Sabbath

YEHOVAH will put to death. Christianity has no covenant with the

Creator because it does not keep this very important

commandment. Do not make the same mistake that Adam and Eve

made when they did not believe the Creator. His word was that if

they ate the forbidden fruit they would die. They did die! Eat the

fruit and die it is that simple!

In the New Testament Yeshua reemphasized the Sabbath

when He said, "For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath?"

(Matthew 12:8) Since Yeshua is the Lord of the Sabbath then if you

are not keeping the Sabbath you are not worshiping Yeshua the

Lord of the Sabbath, you are worshiping a false messiah. It is well

known that the Sabbath is on the seventh day of the week, which

is the day we now call Saturday. Because Christianity worships a

false messiah, it keeps the first day of the week called “the

Venerable Day of the Sun Elohim” (Sunday).

The Sabbath is the primary means by which YEHOVAH

evaluates our faithfulness. When we keep the Sabbath, we are

marked as being faithful to YEHOVAH. If we do not keep the

seventh day Sabbath, the mark of disobedience is given, which is

also called the “mark of the beast.” This goes for the feasts of the

Lord as well, because they are also considered Sabbaths.

So what is the mark of the beast? Revelations 14:9-13 tells

us that those who receive the mark will have the wrath of Almighty

YEHOVAH poured out upon them, “And another angel, a third one,

followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the

beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or upon

his hand, he also will drink of the wine of the wrath of Elohim, which

is mixed in full strength in the cup of His anger; and he will be

tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy

angels and in the presence of the Lamb.” As you can see from these

Page 47: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

43

verses the people who have the mark of the beast are going to see

the full force of YEHOVAH’s wrath; they are going be tormented

day and night until their destruction, which will be an everlasting

destruction. In other words, after this death there will not be

another chance for a pardon and they will stay dead forever.

You can also see from the above scriptures that the people

who receive the mark of the beast do so because they worship the

beast and his image. The beast is clearly Satan and his mark is “the

venerable day of the sun god” (Sunday). Satan is posing as an angel

of light and presenting himself as the Christ. He wants to exalt

himself above YEHOVAH, and he will make as many people take his

mark as possible. The great whore who takes this mark is Satan’s

ally.

To find out where the Bible talks about the mark we have

to go back and find other examples of this concept of being marked.

The first thing is to define what is meant by the word “mark.” If you

look up the word mark in either the Greek or the Hebrew language

you will see that the word “mark” and the word “sign” can be used

interchangeably. The men who translated the Bible chose the word

mark in the above translation, but instead of “the mark of the

beast,” they could have said “the sign of the beast.” Therefore, the

mark of the beast is not necessarily a mark such as a tattoo, but it

is more likely a sign that identifies the people with the beast. It

would be like seeing someone rooting for the Dallas Cowboys every

time they play. This would be a sign that they are a Dallas fan. The

sign is that which identifies you with something, or marks you as

being a part of something.

Exo 31:13 tells us what the sign is that marks us as being a

fan of YEHOVAH, "But as for you, speak to the sons of Israel, saying,

'You shall surely observe My sabbaths; for this is a sign (or mark)

between Me and you throughout your generations, that you may

know that I am YEHOVAH who sanctifies you”. As you can see, the

Page 48: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

44

sign that YEHOVAH is our Elohim is the Sabbath. The thing that

identifies us as being His and as part of His Kingdom is the Sabbath.

YEHOVAH will not sanctify anyone who refuses the sign of the

Sabbath because they have chosen another god.

Since the sign of the Sabbath identifies us as belonging to

YEHOVAH, it only makes sense that the sign of the beast would be

something similar. The sign of the beast is, therefore, the false

sabbath. It is the “venerable day of the sun god” (Sunday), or in the

case of Islam, it is Friday.

Revelation 13 explains that the mark of the beast is a brand

of disobedience to YEHOVAH and His Law, and this mark is taken

upon the hand and the forehead. Since disobedience is described

as, “something worn upon the hand and the forehead,” then in the

same manner obedience is also a mark that is also worn on the

hand and forehead. In Deuteronomy 6 Moses told us, “Now these

are the commandments, the statues, and the judgments which

YEHOVAH your Elohim commanded me to teach you, that you

might do them in the land where you are going over to possess, so

that you and your sons and your grandsons might fear YEHOVAH

your ELOHIM, to keep all His statutes and His commandments…And

you shall bind them as a sign on your hand and they shall be as

frontals on your forehead.” The sign that binds us to YEHOVAH is

the keeping of the Law. This is not a literal mark, but instead it is a

symbolic mark that is formed by our actions and by the way that

we think. The forehead is the center of thought and will, and the

hand involves action. Therefore, if we take the time to learn the

Law (forehead), and then do the Law (Hand), that marks us as being

sons of obedience. If we love YEHOVAH then we will love His Law

and strive to obey Him. When we do, it marks us as being a member

of His Kingdom.

Many will say that the Sabbath is only for the Jew, but that

is not true. Through His servant Isaiah, YEHOVAH explains the path

of salvation for those of us who are not Jewish:

Page 49: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

45

Isa 56:1-7 Thus says YEHOVAH, "Preserve justice, and do

righteousness, for My salvation is about to come and My

righteousness to be revealed. "How blessed is the man who

does this, And the son of man who takes hold of it; who

keeps from profaning the Sabbath, and keeps his hand from

doing any evil." Let not the foreigner who has joined himself

to YEHOVAH say, "YEHOVAH will surely separate me from

His people." Neither let the eunuch say, "Behold, I am a dry

tree." For thus says YEHOVAH, "To the eunuchs who keep

My Sabbaths, And choose what pleases Me, and hold fast

My covenant, To them I will give in My house and within My

walls a memorial, and a name better than that of sons and

daughters; I will give them an everlasting name which will

not be cut off. "Also the foreigners who join themselves to

YEHOVAH, to minister to Him, and to love the name

YEHOVAH, to be His servants, every one who keeps from

profaning the Sabbath, and holds fast My covenant; even

those I will bring to My holy mountain, and make them

joyful in My house of prayer. Their burnt offerings and their

sacrifices will be acceptable on My altar; For My house will

be called a house of prayer for all the peoples."

The Sabbath day was established at the time of creation. It

is an image of YEHOVAH because He is the Creator. Man rebelled

against YEHOVAH, lifting up a counterfeit god and a counterfeit

sabbath to worship. It is going to come down to this, are you going

to worship the real thing, or are you going to worship the

counterfeit? You can worship the Living Elohim and give Him honor

by observing the Sabbaths or you can worship the beast, whose

image was created by a rebellious people at the tower of Babel.

“Everyone who profanes the Sabbath will be put to

death.” This brings us to the “unpardonable sin.” Yeshua taught us

that the unpardonable sin is, “to blaspheme the Holy Spirit.” The

Page 50: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

46

word blasphemes means: “to treat YEHOVAH or His sacred

things disrespectfully through words or actions.” The Sabbath is

sacred and it is a day that YAH set aside, or made to be holy. We

blaspheme the Holy Spirit when we do not follow His direction to

turn away from our sins, the sin of disregarding YAH’s sanctified

and holy things. The Sabbath is YEHOVAH’s sanctified and holy

thing so treat it as such.

Hebrews 4:9-11 Tells us, “So there remains a Sabbath rest

for the people of Elohim. For the one who has entered His rest has

himself also rested from his works, as Elohim did from His.

Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will

fall, through following the same example of disobedience.” When

the author of Hebrews is saying, “there is a day of rest,” he is talking

about the Sabbath. He is telling us to be diligent to keep the

Sabbath because not to do so is disobedience. Many people want

to spiritualize this and say, Hebrews is talking about the millennial

Sabbath when Elohim returns to be with His people and it is not

about the weekly Sabbath or the Sabbath feasts. The only reason

they do this is because they are lawless and do not want to follow

the true Elohim. When the author said, “Therefore let us be diligent

to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the

same example of disobedience.” He is saying; keep the Sabbath so

that you do not fall like all those who have previously refused to

keep the Sabbath.

As you can see, in the New Testament keeping the Sabbath

is just as important as it was in the Old Testament. If you claim to

be following the Messiah and you are not keeping the Sabbaths, as

stated in the Bible, then you are following the wrong messiah and

you will not see salvation. Remember, Yeshua told us, “I am the

Elohim of the Sabbath.” He is the Elohim of the weekly Sabbath and

of the Sabbath covenant.

The day of rest is always talking about the Sabbath, so, here

in Hebrews we see that if we do not keep the Sabbath we are in

disobedience and have fallen from grace. The reason was given in

a previous verse when the author of Hebrews stated, “For indeed

we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the

word they heard did not profit them, because it was not united by

faith in those who heard.”(Hebrews 4:2) The word faith here has a

twofold meaning. One is faith as in believing that YEHOVAH means

what He says. Adam did not believe that YEHOVAH meant what He

said and now Adam is dead. Remember YEHOVAH’s words to

Adam, “If you eat thereof (speaking of the tree of good and evil)

this day you will surely die.” Adam and Eve did die because

YEHOVAH is not a liar. Second, faith has the meaning of being

faithful. In the Bible, the word “faith” is a verb not a noun. There is

action involved in faith. Whenever you see the word faith in the

Bible it is not only talking about belief, but it is also talking about

taking action to be faithful, or obedient. For the good news to be

profitable, one must be faithful and keep the faith.

In the Roman Empire, as the Faith of Yeshua started to gain

popularity, a competition went on between those who wanted to

keep their ancient practices, dressing them up to look biblical, and

those who wanted to keep the pure Faith of Yeshua Messiah. One

of these competitions was over the day of worship. Constantine

was emperor of Rome from AD 306 to 337. He was a sun worshiper

during the first years of his reign. Later, he professed conversion to

Christianity, but at heart remained a devotee of the sun. Edward

Gibbon says, “The Sun was universally celebrated as the invincible

guide and protector of Constantine.”

Constantine created the earliest Sunday law known to

history in AD 321. This was the decree:

On the venerable Day of the sun let the magistrates and

people residing in cities rest, and let all workshops be

Page 52: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

48

closed. In the country, however, persons engaged in

agriculture may freely and lawfully continue their pursuits:

because it often happens that another day is not so suitable

for grain sowing or for vine planting: lest by neglecting the

proper moment for such operations the bounty of heaven

should be lost.

Chamber’s Encyclopedia says, “Unquestionably the first

law, either ecclesiastical or civil, by which the Sabbatical

observance of that Day is known to have been ordained, is the edict

of Constantine, 321 A.D.”

Following this initial legislation, both emperors and Popes

in succeeding centuries added other laws to strengthen Sunday

observance. What began as a pagan ordinance ended being

Christian regulation. The times and seasons that YEHOVAH had

ordained in His word were being changed.

Close on the heels of the Edict of Constantine followed the

Catholic Church Council of Laodicea (circa 364 AD), which says,

“Christians shall not Judaize and be idle on Saturday (Sabbath), but

shall work on that Day: but the Lord’s Day, they shall especially

honor; and as being Christians, shall, if possible, do no work on that

day. If however, they are found Judaizing, they shall be shut out

from Christ.” By this time the name “Christian” had been coopted

and its meaning become a generic word that referred to all those

who followed the savior of the Roman Catholic Church. You can see

a clear distinction between those who were following the original

faith and those who were following the Roman form of worship.

Eventually the form of worship that the Roman Church

performed had nothing to do with the Bible. This led to what I am

calling the true Christian creed. What you are about to read is not

necessarily a creed; however, I am calling it a creed because it

displays the underlying spirit peddled by Christianity.

Page 53: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

49

”I renounce all customs, rites, legalisms, unleavened breads

and sacrifices of lambs of the Hebrews, and all the other

feasts of the Hebrews, sacrifices, prayers, aspirations,

purifications, sanctifications, and propitiations, and fasts

and new moons, and Sabbaths, and superstitions, and

hymns and chants, and observances and synagogues.

absolutely everything Jewish, every Law, rite and custom

and if afterwards I shall wish to deny and return to Jewish

superstition, or shall be found eating with Jews, or feasting

with them, or secretly conversing and condemning the

Christian religion instead of openly confuting them and

condemning their vain faith, then let the trembling of Cain

and the leprosy of Gehazi cleave to me, as well as the legal

punishments to which I acknowledge myself liable. And may

I be an anathema in the world to come, and may my soul be

set down with Satan and the devils.” (Stcfano Assemani,

Acta Sanctorium Martyrum Orientalium at Occidentalium,

Vol. 1, Rome 1748, page 105)

As you can see, this creed banned everything that YEHOVAH

requires of us if we are to worship Him according to scripture. This

was not only anti-Semitism, but it was also anti-Christ, replacing

the true Messiah with a false. This statement expresses the

underlying sentiment of the Christian Church as a hole. In other

words, the new faith, based on the Roman form, would worship a

messiah of its own making and they would do away with the Elohim

of the Bible, His Law, His people and the Jewish Messiah who

represents them. Christianity had rejected the Faith that the

Apostles taught and they rejected the Elohim of the Bible. They

created their own new religion around the concept of a savior of

their own making. In doing so, they included many of the practices

from the old mystery religions. They claimed to use the Bible as the

Page 54: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

50

central point of their religion, but they only gave the Bible lip

service.

Because of this departure from the faith, those who would

not compromise were marked on the forehead sealing them for

salvation.

Rev 7:4-8 And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one

hundred and forty-four thousand sealed from every tribe of the

sons of Israel: (5) from the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand were

sealed, from the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, from the tribe

of Gad twelve thousand, (6) from the tribe of Asher twelve

thousand, from the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, from the

tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand, (7) from the tribe of Simeon

twelve thousand, from the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, from the

tribe of Issachar twelve thousand, (8) from the tribe of Zebulun

twelve thousand, from the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, from

the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand were sealed.

Tribulation has been ongoing through the centuries and we are encouraged to see that those who overcome will be saved and standing before the Throne of Elohim when it is all over.

In prophecy, the number 1,000 is a multiplier. Whenever it is used, it represents the multiplication of the people. It does not mean there will be exactly that many people it just means they have multiplied. You get the twelve thousand by multiplying the tribes of Israel, which is twelve by 1,000. This means they have multiplied. Then you get 144,000 by multiplying 12,000 for each tribe by twelve tribes. 144,000 is a number that represents the entirety of those who are saved. Just as the number seven represents the Church and the number ten represents the kingdom of the beast, and the number twelve represents Elohim’s Kingdom, 144,000 represents the entirety of those who are saved. There will be many more then 144,000 in the end.

The following verse gives a preview of the reward the 144,000 will receive:

Page 55: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

51

Rev 7:9-17 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; (10) And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our Elohim which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. (11) And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped Elohim, (12) Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our Elohim for ever and ever. Amen. (13) And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they? (14) And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. (15) Therefore are they before the throne of Elohim, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sits on the throne shall dwell among them. (16) They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. (17) For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and Elohim shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.

Soon the resurrection will occur and we will be gathered to

for the wedding supper of the Lamb.

Seventh Seal (321-387AD)

Rev 8:1-5 And when He broke the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. And I saw the seven angels who stand before Elohim; and seven trumpets were given to them. And another angel came and stood at the altar, holding a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, that he might add it to the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, went up before Elohim out of the angel's hand. And the angel took the censer; and he filled it with the fire of the altar and threw it to the earth; and there followed peals of thunder and sounds and flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Constantine was still in power and the silence was that

Christians were no longer being persecuted. The prayers of the

Saints had been answered. The Christians were now free and the

imperial persecutions were over. After the Christians were freed,

there was a short period of peace in the Empire.

The problem now became that Constantine and his bishops

set out to formalize Christianity and bring it under the leadership

of the Roman Emperor. As previously stated, this ended up being a

pagan form of Christianity causing a shift in the beast empire and it

gave rise to the Roman Catholic Church. The preexisting pagan

Church of Rome took over the matters of faith and became the Holy

Roman Catholic Church. As the dominant ruling kingdom, they

decided to have religion their own way. Rather than keeping the

word of YEHOVAH and worshiping the true savior, what they did is

to wrap their pagan worship around the concept of a savior of their

own. This was what caused the peals of thunder and sounds and

flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

Because the empire did not repent and follow the word of

Elohim, but instead created its own form of Christianity based on

pagan ritual, YEHOVAH prepared the seven trumpets to be

Page 57: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

53

sounded. The trumpet indicates divine judgment on this pagan

empire who was wolves, now hiding in sheep’s clothing. This

trumpet also sounds the alarm to Elohim’s people who were now

becoming complacent is this new friendlier environment. The

empire will start to be torn apart as the seven trumpets begin to

sound.

The Trumpets

The First Trumpet (387-410AD)

Rev 8:7 And the first sounded, and there came hail and fire, mixed with blood, and they were thrown to the earth; and a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.

In this verse, hail equals bombardment and besiegement.

This is the description of the fall of the Western Roman Empire,

which was one third of the Roman Empire.

The Sack of Rome occurred on August 24, 410. The city was

attacked by the Visigoths led by King Alaric. At that time, Rome was

no longer the capital of the Western Roman Empire, having been

replaced in that position first by Mediolanum in 286 and then by

Ravenna in 402. Nevertheless, the city of Rome retained a

paramount position as "the eternal city" and a spiritual center of

the Empire. The sack was a major shock to contemporaries, friends

and foes of the Empire alike.

This was the first time in almost 800 years that Rome had

fallen to a foreign enemy. The sacking of 410 is seen as a major

landmark in the fall of the Western Roman Empire. St. Jerome,

living in Bethlehem at the time, wrote that, "The City which had

taken the whole world was itself taken."

When the Visigoths, also known as Vandals, sacked Rome,

they destroyed and burnt everything. This is where we get our

word vandalism.

Page 59: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

55

The Second Trumpet (410-434AD)

Rev 8:8-9 And the second angel sounded, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea; and a third of the sea became blood; and a third of the creatures, which were in the sea and had life, died; and a third of the ships were destroyed.

The mountain is a kingdom and the sea is the beast of the

sea or beast empire. The mountain that was thrown down into the

sea was Genseric King of the Vandals and Alans (428–477). He

established the Vandal Kingdom and was one of the key players in

the troubles of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century.

Genseric destroyed the Roman Sea fairing fleet and took control of

the Mediterranean.

The Third Trumpet (437-453AD)

Rev 8:10-11 And the third angel sounded, and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of waters; and the name of the star is called Wormwood; and a third of the waters became wormwood; and many men died from the waters, because they were made bitter.

Biblically wormwood means, “Misery, bitterness, and

anguish.” The shooting star that YEHOVAH sent to bring further

judgment to the Beast or Roman Empire was Attila the Hun. Attila

the Hun was the ruler of the Huns from 434 until his death in March

453. Attila was a leader of the Hunnic Empire, a tribal

confederation consisting of Huns, Ostrogoths, and Alans among

others, on the territory of Central and Eastern Europe.

Page 60: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

56

During his reign, he was one of the most feared enemies of

the Western and Eastern Roman Empires. He crossed the Danube

twice and plundered the Balkans, but was unable to take

Constantinople. His unsuccessful campaign in Persia was followed

in 441 by an invasion of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, the

success of which emboldened Attila to invade the West. He also

attempted to conquer Roman Gaul (modern France), crossing the

Rhine in 451 and marching as far as Aurelianum (Orléans) before

being defeated at the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains.

He subsequently invaded Italy, devastating the Northern

provinces, but was unable to take Rome. He planned for further

campaigns against the Romans but died in 453. After Attila's death,

his close adviser Ardaric of the Gepids led a Germanic revolt against

Hunnic rule, after which the Hunnic Empire quickly collapsed.

The Forth Trumpet (453-467AD)

Rev 8:12-13 And the fourth angel sounded, and a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were smitten, so that a third of them might be darkened and the day might not shine for a third of it, and the night in the same way. And I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe, to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!"

The sun and the moon refer to the pagan world. The stars

refer to the kings or in this case emperor of the pagan empire,

which was the Roman Empire or Beast Empire. This passage marks

the end of the Western Roman Empire, one third of the Empire.

This left only the Eastern and Southern parts of the Empire.

Page 61: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

57

In 476AD Romulus Augustus, the last emperor of the

Western Roman Empire, was deposed by Odoacer, a German

barbarian who proclaims himself king of Italy. Odoacer was a

mercenary leader in the Roman imperial army when he launched

his mutiny against the young emperor. At Piacenza, he defeated

Roman General Orestes, the emperor’s powerful father, and then

took Ravenna, the capital of the Western empire since 402.

Although Roman rule continued in the East, the crowning of

Odoacer marked the end of the original Roman Empire, which

centered in Italy.

The last three trumpets, which are called the three woes,

will next be blown.

The Fifth Trumpet (467-717AD) (The First Woe)

In order to make this easier to follow I will go verse by verse

for Rev 9:1-11. This is the first of the three woes.

Now that the western part of the Roman Empire has fallen,

attention is shifted to the eastern part of the Empire. In the eastern

part of the Empire was the Eastern Orthodox Church. It is the same

as Catholicism, just without the Pope. It keeps the same false

sabbaths and the same superstitions.

As you will see, this prophesies about the rise of Islam,

which Elohim will use to bring the first and second woe upon the

Beast Empire.

(1) And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from heaven, which had fallen to the earth; and the key of the bottomless pit was given to him.

Page 62: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

58

The star that fell on the earth is Satan. I do not know if Satan

was cast out of Heaven on this date or prior to this, but I feel that

he is chained up in the pit at this point. In Hebrew the ruler of the

bottomless pit is called Abaddon and in Greek Apollyon. Islam calls

him Allah. This is why Islam is a totally demonically driven society,

because it is a pure form of Satan worship.

(2) And he opened the bottomless pit; and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit.

The smoke that came out of the pit is the false doctrine of

the Qur'an.

(3) And out of the smoke came forth locusts upon the earth; and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

The locust is associated with the Muslim nations. If you lay

a map of the range were the locust swarms it is almost identical to

the map of the Islamic held nations. I have heard stories from

people who lived in Israel back when it was held by the Muslims

saying that the locust would swarm the land on a regular basis, but

when the Jews took possession of the land the locust no longer

swarmed the land. More significantly, Muslim tradition associates

the armies of Islam as locust who swarm their enemies.

(4) And they were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of Elohim on their foreheads.

Mohamad commanded his armies not to ruin the land when

they went in to conquer. They wanted the people they conquered

to pay tribute, and they could not do this if the land was ruined.

Those conquered were made to convert to Islam, thus having the

Page 63: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

59

seal of Allah on their forehead. All of those who would not convert

to the religion of Islam were either put to death or made slaves.

(5) And they were not permitted to kill anyone, but to torment for five months; and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings a man.

The locusts or Muslim warriors would go out for five months

each year to conquer, so the inhabitants of the beast or Roman

Empire were terrified for five months each year as the locusts

swarmed the land conquering and taking booty.

(6) And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; and they will long to die and death flees from them.

The type of Christianity that the Romans held was not one

of personal relationship and submission to YEHOVAH. They had a

religion, but it was not Elohim’s religion. Because of this, they did

not have the courage to be martyred for their faith, so most

converted to Islam rather than be killed or made a slave.

(7) And the appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads, as it were, crowns like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. (8) And they had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.

It was common of the Muslims of that time to wear golden

turbans decorated with jewels. They had long hair and beards. See

the below picture:

(9) And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to battle.

Page 64: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

60

The Locusts were known for their Arabian horses and their

use of Calvary. They were also known for their chainmail armor.

The Sixth Trumpet (717-1453AD) (Second Woe)

Rev 9:12-21 The first woe is past; behold, two woes are still coming after these things.

Prior to the sixth trumpet, there was a time of relative

peace in the land. The Byzantine Empire was ruled by the Isaurian

or Syrian dynasty from 717 to 802. The Isaurian dynasty is chiefly

associated with Byzantine Iconoclasm, which was an attempt to

restore divine favor by purifying the Christian faith from excessive

adoration of icons. Any time the Church was attempting to return

to Biblical truths YAH would hold back his wrath and give them a

chance to repent. This period of peace was short lived because the

Empire soon turned back to their idolatry. When they did Elohim’s

Page 65: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

61

judgments returned and the Arab Sultan hired Turkish mercenaries

to punish the Byzantines who had stopped paying tribute.

(13) And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before Elohim, (14) one saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates." (15) And the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released, so that they might kill a third of mankind.

As we saw earlier, four is the spread of evil. These angels

are associated with false doctrine. Muslim tradition is that four

angels carried the Qur'an to the four corners of the earth. The

smoke or false doctrine of the Qur'an had spread to all of the

Ishmaelite’s. This was their preparation for the evil they were

about to do.

(16) And the number of the armies of the horsemen was two

hundred million; I heard the number of them.

Some translations say, “The number of the troops of cavalry

was twice ten thousand times ten thousand…” This would only be

two million men. The armies that attacked the Eastern Roman

Empire were the Turks.

(17) And this is how I saw in the vision the horses and those who sat on them: the riders had breastplates the color of fire and of hyacinth and of brimstone; and the heads of the horses are like the heads of lions; and out of their mouths proceed fire and smoke and brimstone. (18) A third of mankind was killed by these three plagues, by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone, which proceeded out of their mouths. (19) For the power of the horses

Page 66: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

62

is in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents and have heads; and with them they do harm.

The color of the uniforms worn by the Turks was red (fire),

blue (hyacinth) and yellow (brimstone). The Turks were the first to

use cannons in battle. The cannons they used were decorated to

look like a lion’s head around the cannons opening. The wick to

light the fuse was at the tail end. The fire and brimstone that John

saw were the Turks using cannons to bring down the walls of

Constantinople when they laid siege to the city. This was the end

of the second third of the Roman Empire.

(20) And the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these

plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, so as not to

worship demons, and the idols of gold and of silver and of brass

and of stone and of wood, which can neither see nor hear nor

walk; (21) and they did not repent of their murders nor of their

sorceries nor of their immorality nor of their thefts.

After the Turks defeated Constantinople in 1453, this left

only one third of the original Roman or Beast Empire. This is the

Page 67: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

63

part of the Empire that is centered in what we now call central

Europe.

Even after watching the judgement of the rest of the

Empire, the people remaining in what was left of the Empire still

did not repent. They continued in their immoralities ignoring the

truth and continued to suppress the use of the Bible.

A quick review where we have been: At this point two thirds

of the Beast Empire has been conquered. The first one third of the

empire was taken at the fifth trumpet by the Arabs and the second

one third was taken at the sixth trumpet by the Turks. Now only

one third of the Empire, the southern part, remains and it is in what

we now call Europe.

There will now be a long period before the third woe is

released because it will be at the last trump when YEHOVAH will

finally put an end to the beast empire. In the meantime, YAH will

use His two witnesses to set the world up for the final events of

Prophecy.

Rev 10 - The Little Book (1453-1500AD)

When the Turks conquered the Eastern part of the Empire,

the men of learning smuggled the scrolls of scripture out and took

them to the south. Previously the rulers of the southern kingdom

had destroyed all of the scriptures allowing only the Latin Vulgate

and only the priests were allowed to see it. The people of the land

were kept in complete darkness. When these manuscripts were

smuggled in, all of the sudden, the light of scripture began to shine.

This caused the beginning of the Reformation. As you will see

Revelations 10 and 11 covers the time of the reformation and

brings us up to the present.

Rev 10:1-11 Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven, wrapped in a cloud, with a rainbow over his head, and his face was like the sun, and his legs like pillars of fire. (2) He had a little scroll open in his hand. And he set his right foot on the sea, and his left foot on the land, (3) and called out with a loud voice, like a lion roaring; when he called out, the seven thunders sounded. (4) And when the seven thunders had sounded, I was about to write, but I heard a voice from heaven saying, "Seal up what the seven thunders have said, and do not write it down." (5) And the angel whom I saw standing on sea and land lifted up his right hand to heaven (6) and swore by him who lives for ever and ever, who created heaven and what is in it, the earth and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it, that there should be no more delay, (7) but that in the days of the trumpet call to be sounded by the seventh angel, the mystery of Elohim, as he announced to his servants the prophets, should be fulfilled. (8) Then the voice which I had heard from heaven spoke to me again, saying, "Go, take the scroll which is open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land." (9) So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little scroll; and he said to me, "Take it and eat; it will be bitter to your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth." (10) And I took the little scroll from the hand of the angel and ate it; it was sweet as honey in my

Page 69: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

65

mouth, but when I had eaten it my stomach was made bitter. (11) And I was told, "You must again prophesy about many peoples and nations and tongues and kings."

This is the angel of the Lord, or the angel of YEHOVAH who

is none other than Yeshua Messiah handing this book to John.

Yeshua told John to eat the book. We know from the historic point

in which this takes place that this is the Bible. It was at this time in

history that the Bible started to become available to the average

person. Prior to this, the Bible was made dead because the Church

suppressed the masses from seeing it. The reason the Bible stood

on its feet, so to speak, and began to be seen by the masses was

because of the invention of the printing press.

The Bible tells us that YAH’s Word is sweet as honey, but

the Bible became bitter in John’s stomach because of all the

bloodshed resulting from the Beast Empire’s attempt to keep the

Bible from the people. The Church of Rome knew that if the Bible

got out to the people the people would be enlightened and Rome’s

stranglehold on power would end. They stopped at nothing

including torture and murder to prevent the Bible from getting out,

but it did anyway. This was the beginning of the great reformation.

Rev 11 - The Two Witnesses (1500 – Sep 23, 2017)

Now that the Bible was being made available to the masses

we see the measuring rod and the two witnesses appear on the

scene. These both have to do with the period of the reformation.

During this time, the Bible is made available to the masses, so now

each individual is made responsible for their actions towards

Elohim.

Page 70: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

66

Rev 11:1-14 Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told: "Rise and measure the temple of Elohim and the altar and those who worship there…

The word “rod” comes from the original Greek word

“kanon,” which is where we get the word canon. The definition of

canon is: 1. Ecclesiastical rule or law. 2. Measuring rod, rule.

The temple is not a temple built in Jerusalem; it is the

temple of our bodies. Among many other scriptures 2Coronthians

6:16 tells us, “What agreement has the temple of Elohim with idols?

For we are the temple of the living Elohim; as Elohim said, "I will live

in them and move among them, and I will be their Elohim, and they

shall be my people.” All through the New Testament, the apostles

made it clear that the Shekinah or Holy Spirit would no longer dwell

in a temple made of stones, but now, through Yeshua Messiah, the

Spirit would dwell in the temple of our bodies washed clean by the

blood of the Lamb.

YEHOVAH was going to see to it that the canon was made

available to the masses and each individual is going to be measured

by the rod or canon to see if they will be a follower of the canon or

a follower of the traditions of men.

(2) but do not measure the court outside the temple; leave that out, for it is given over to the nations, and they will trample over the holy city for forty-two months.

The court outside of the Temple has to do with the nations

where the believers live. Until Yeshua returns and sets up His

Kingdom on earth, we, the temples of Elohim, have to live under

the rule of gentile secular governments. Because we are under the

rule of these governments, our outer courts are trampled on. We

can do nothing about what goes on around us; however, what goes

on in our hearts we have control over and the secular governments

cannot trample on our inner courts. They may attempt to force us

to believe the way they do, and they may even kill us, but we have

Page 71: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

67

the opportunity to know the Bible and to know how it tells us to

worship the Creator, and they cannot take that away from us. After

Yeshua returns, Elohim’s people will no longer live under the rule

of gentiles, but will live under the direct rule of Yeshua who will be

our King and our Priest. The gentiles will no longer trample on the

outer courts of our temple and we will be free to worship Elohim in

truth and in peace. At that time Yeshua will begin to rule with a

rode of Iron instead of one made out of reed.

(3) And I will grant my two witnesses power to prophesy for

(until) one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in

sackcloth." (4) These are the two olive trees and the two

candlesticks, which stand before the Lord of the earth. (5) And if

any one would harm them, fire pours from their mouth and

consumes their foes; if any one would harm them, thus he is

doomed to be killed. (6) They have power to shut the sky, that

no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying, and they

have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite

the earth with every plague, as often as they desire. (7) And

when they have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends

from the bottomless pit will make war upon them and conquer

them and kill them, (8) and their dead bodies will lie in the street

of the great city which is allegorically called Sodom and Egypt,

where their Lord was crucified. (9) For three days and a half men

from the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations gaze at their

dead bodies and refuse to let them be placed in a tomb, (10) and

those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and make

merry and exchange presents, because these two prophets had

been a torment to those who dwell on the earth. (11) But after

the three and a half days a breath of life from Elohim entered

them, and they stood up on their feet, and great fear fell on those

who saw them. (12) Then they heard a loud voice from heaven

saying to them, "Come up hither!" And in the sight of their foes

they went up to heaven in a cloud. (13) And at that hour there

was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven

Page 72: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

68

thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were

terrified and gave glory to the Elohim of heaven.

This should say, “…until one thousand two hundred and

sixty days.” I know this is presumptuous of me to say this, but what

I have found is that when this tree and one half year period is

referred to it is always pointing to the same event. This three and

one half year period is referred to in many ways. Sometimes it is

called forty-two months; sometime three and one half days;

sometimes it is a times, time and a half a time; or like above, one

thousand two hundred and sixty days. These are all referring to the

same three and a half year period that was prophesied in Daniel

9:17. It will be during this three and one half year period when

Satan’s rule of the earth will end. Satan will desecrate the temple,

the bowls of wrath will be poured out, Yeshua will crush Satan’s

head, YAH’s people will be resurrected and transformed and the

Kingdom of Elohim will be established. Every time the three and a

half years is mentioned, it is looking forward to this event or time

frame. So the two witnesses do their witnessing until the three and

a half years comes, and not for three and a half days as we have

been taught.

Now let us talk about these two lamps mentioned the

above scriptures. In the above scripture, the lamp that is

mentioned is a Menorah. The Menorah has seven candlesticks, but

in the above scripture, there are only two candlesticks burning.

Keep this in mind because we will return to these two out of seven

candlesticks that are still burning.

These two olive trees are the Old and New Testaments. To

understand this we need to bring in Zechariah:

(Zec 4:1-14) Then the angel who was speaking with me

returned, and roused me as a man who is awakened from

his sleep. (2) And he said to me, "What do you see?" And I

said, "I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold with its bowl

Page 73: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

69

on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it with seven spouts

belonging to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;

(3) also two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the

bowl and the other on its left side." (4) Then I answered

and said to the angel who was speaking with me saying,

"What are these, my lord?" (5) So the angel who was

speaking with me answered and said to me, "Do you not

know what these are?" And I said, "No, my lord." (6) Then

he answered and said to me, "This is the word of YEHOVAH

to Zerubbabel saying, 'Not by might nor by power, but by

My Spirit,' says the LORD of hosts….. (11) Then I answered

and said to him, "What are these two olive trees on the right

of the lampstand and on its left?" (12) And I answered the

second time and said to him, "What are the two olive

branches which are beside the two golden pipes, which

empty the golden oil from themselves?" (13) So he

answered me saying, "Do you not know what these are?"

And I said, "No, my lord." (14) Then he said, "These are the

two anointed ones, who are standing by the Lord of the

whole earth."

Zachariah is seeing this vision of a menorah, but only two of

the lights are burning and the two olive trees are dripping oil into

these to two lights keeping them going. This is where we get the

two candlesticks in Rev 11: 4, which said, “These are the two olive

trees and the two candlesticks, which stand before the Lord of the

earth.” There are only two lights burning on the seven light

menorah in the end.

Remember Yeshua set his Church in the Land of Asia and

sent a message to seven of the churches. All of these churches were

rebuked for compromising the faith except for two. Because these

churches were compromising, the result was that their lights

eventually went out. These churches became the apostate Church

of today. The two churches whose light kept going were Smyrna

Page 74: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

70

and Philadelphia. These represent those who, "overcame him

because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their

testimony, and they did not love their life even to death” (Rev

12:11). The testimony spoken of is the Torah, which was set in the

“Ark of the Testimony.” It is YEHOVAH’s testimony of how He is

going to save a people. This is not our self-centered testimony of

how we had an emotional experience and a coming to Jesus. This

is the testimony of how we did our best to keep YAH’s Law, and

how the statute pertaining to the sacrificial lamb provided

forgiveness of sin. The statute providing for the sacrifice is part of

the Law, and if you have no regard for the Law then this statute is

not available to you. The other churches did not continue to have

regard for the Law by buying into the doctrine of demons that says

that the Law was nailed to the cross and you no longer need to keep

the Law so their lamps went out. There is now a dead and dark

church full of Lawless people on every street corner of every city

because they consider YAH’s Law/Torah to be of no value.

The olive tree represents the spirit of Elohim, and we the

branches are graphed into this tree. In this passage the olive tree

represent the spirit of Elohim coming through the Old and New

testaments of the Bible. These two olive trees are feeding oil to the

Menorah to maintain their lights. Zac 4: 6 gives us a picture of this

where it says, “…Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit…” This

is telling us that YEHOVAH is not going to conquer us and cause us

to worship Him by force; instead, it is through His spirit, which we

will receive through the reading and study of the Old and New

Testaments of Bible. When we accept the dictates of the Bible,

which is YAH’s spirit then we are saved. So the two olive trees are

the Old and the New Testament feeding our lamp to give us light.

Since the days of the printing press, Elohim has been

making sure that these two witnesses are available to whomever

may want them. We no longer have to depend on the priests to

give us the word; we can read it for ourselves.

Page 75: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

71

The Old and New Testament’s are clothed in sackcloth

because of all those whose blood will be shed for believing the

witness of the Bible and wish to live their lives according to that

witness.

Chapter eleven puts us in the time frame of the French

revolution. Remember, the beast empire had been beaten back to

the area of central Europe. As you will see, during the French

revolution the beast attempted to kill the two witnesses, but in the

end, the two witnesses stood on their feet and they began to

preach. They will continued to preach until the three and a half year

period arrives.

When the Protestant movement first began, they broke

away from the Catholic Church, and there was an effort to return

to the Hebrew roots of the Bible. France initially tolerated the

Protestants; however, Protestantism was later thoroughly stamped

out. By 1559, there were 400,000 Huguenots (French Protestants)

in France. In three savage "Huguenot Wars" (1562-1570), the

Catholics tried unsuccessfully to exterminate the Protestants. The

Jesuits were at the forefront this work (as they were doing

elsewhere in Europe).

Catherine de 'Medici of France was told by her Jesuit

confessor that her sins would be forgiven if she killed all the

Protestants. On St. Bartholomew's Day, August 24, 1572, the

horrible work began, and continued for two months resulting in the

death of 70,000 Protestants. The only sin of the Protestants was

that they read and believed the Bible. Pope Gregory XIII was utterly

delighted and the killing of Protestants continued to 1580.

With the extermination of the Protestants, the nation's best

workers were gone so the nation became more and more corrupt.

The nation was in crises and the people were hurting. In 1789, Louis

XVI called the Estates-General to keep the country from

bankruptcy, but it was too late and the French Revolution resulted.

In July 1789, riots began throughout the nation. The Reign

of Terror continued until 1794, with over 300,000 citizens slain.

Page 76: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

72

War between France and other nations was almost continuous

from 1793 to 1915.

The "Festival of Reason" occurred in November 1793.

Voltaire said he had destroyed Christianity, but his house was later

used to store French Bibles.

The suppression of the Scriptures under the dominion of

Rome, the terrible results of that suppression, and the final

exaltation of the word of Elohim, are vividly portrayed by the

prophetic word. The Apostle John was given a view of these years

during which the papal power was permitted to trample upon

Elohim's word and oppress His people. Said the angel of the Lord,

"The holy city (The true Church) shall they tread under foot (until)

forty and two months. And I will give power unto my two

witnesses, and they shall prophesy (until) a thousand two hundred

and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth." (Revelation 11:2-3).

Here again, the Beast is allowed to operate until the forty

two month period when YEHOVAH will take its power away and

establish His Kingdom on the earth. The beast will attempt to keep

Elohim's faithful witnesses in a state of obscurity until then. The

beast will continue with false doctrine, vain philosophies and

murder where it can get away with it.

The two witnesses represent the Old and New Testament

of Scripture. Both are important testimonies to the origin and

perpetuity of the Law of Elohim. Both are witnesses also to the plan

of salvation. The types, sacrifices, and prophecies of the Old

Testament point forward to a Savior to come. The Gospels and

Epistles of the New Testament tell of a Savior who has come in the

exact manner foretold by type and prophecy. "These are the two

olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the Elohim

of the earth." (Revelation 11:4) Psalms 119:105 tells us “Thy word

is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

The papal power sought to hide from the people the word

of truth, and set before them false witnesses to contradict its

testimony. When the Bible was prohibited by religious and secular

Page 77: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

73

authority; when its testimony was perverted, and every effort

made was made by men and demons to turn the minds of the

people from it; when those who dared proclaim its sacred truths

were hunted, betrayed, tortured, buried in dungeon cells,

martyred for their faith, or compelled to flee to mountain retreat’s

and to dens and caves of the earth, then indeed did the faithful

witnesses prophesy in sackcloth.

But men cannot with impunity trample upon the word of

Elohim. YEHOVAH had declared concerning His two witnesses, "If

any man will hurt them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and

devour their enemies; and if any man will hurt them, he must in

this manner be killed." (Revelation 11:5) The meaning of this

fearful denunciation is set forth in the closing chapter of the book

of Revelation: "I testify unto every man that heareth the words of

the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto these things,

Elohim shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this

prophecy, Elohim shall take away his part out of the book of life,

and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in

this book." (Revelation 22:18, 19)

This is the warnings Elohim has given to guard men against

changing in any manner that which He has revealed or

commanded. These solemn denunciations apply to all who by their

influence lead men to lightly regard the Law of Elohim. They should

cause those to fear and tremble who flippantly declare it a matter

of little consequence whether we obey Elohim's Law or not. All who

exalt their own opinions above the written word, all who would

change the plain meaning of Scripture to suit their own

convenience or for the sake of conformity to the world, are taking

upon themselves a fearful responsibility. The written word, the Law

of Elohim, will measure the character of every man, and condemn

all whom this unerring test shall declare wanting.

In no land had the spirit of enmity against Messiah and the

truth been more strikingly displayed than in godless France.

Nowhere had the gospel encountered more bitter and cruel

Page 78: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

74

opposition. In the streets of Paris, Messiah had indeed been

crucified in the person of His saints. The world still recalls with

shuddering horror the scenes of that most cowardly and cruel

onslaught, the massacres of St. Bartholomew. The king of France

urged on by Roman priests and prelates lent his sanction to the

dreadful work. The palace bell, tolling at midnight, gave the signal

for the slaughter to begin. Protestants by thousands, sleeping

quietly in their homes, trusting to the plighted honor of their king,

were dragged forth without a warning and murdered in cold blood.

Satan, in the person of the Roman zealots, led the

onslaught. As Messiah was the invisible leader of His people from

Egyptian bondage, so was Satan the unseen leader of his subjects

in this horrible work of multiplying martyrs. For three days, the

butchery went on; more than thirty thousand perished. The result

caused great joy to the hosts of darkness. The Roman pontiff,

sharing in the diabolical rejoicing, proclaimed a jubilee to be

observed throughout his dominions, to celebrate the event.

The same master-spirit that urged on the massacre of St.

Bartholomew, led also in the scenes of the French Revolution.

Satan seemed to triumph. Notwithstanding the labors of the

Reformers, he had succeeded in holding vast multitudes in

ignorance concerning Elohim and His word. Now he appeared in a

new guise. In France arose an atheistic power that openly declared

war against the authority of Heaven. Men threw off all restraint.

The Law of Elohim was trampled underfoot. Those who could

engage in the most Heaven-daring blasphemy and the most

abominable wickedness were most highly exalted. Fornication was

sanctioned by law. Profanity and corruption seemed to overwhelm

the earth. In all this, supreme homage was paid to Satan, while

Messiah in His characteristics of truth, purity, and unselfish love

was crucified. The Bible was publicly burned. The Sabbath was

blotted out. Romanism had enjoined image worship; now divine

honors were paid to the vilest objects. The work that the papacy

had begun, atheism completed. The one withheld from the people

the truths of the Bible; the other taught them to reject both the

Page 79: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

75

Bible and its Author. The seed sown by priests and prelates was

yielding its evil fruit.

Terrible indeed was the condition of infidel France, which

was the center of the beast empire at this time. The word of truth

lay dead in her streets, and those who hated the restrictions and

requirements of Elohim's Law were jubilant. But transgression and

rebellion were followed by the sure result. Unhappy France reaped

in blood the harvest she had sown. The war against the Bible and

the Law of Elohim banished peace and happiness from the hearts

and homes of men. No one was secure: he who triumphed today

was suspected, condemned, tomorrow. Violence and terror

reigned supreme. The land was filled with crimes too horrible to

write.

The beast of the earth attempted to make the two

witnesses dead, but YAH’s faithful witnesses were not long to

remain silent. "The Spirit of life from YAH entered into them, and

they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon them that saw

them." Revelation 11:11. The world stood aghast at the enormity

of guilt that had resulted from a rejection of the Sacred Oracles,

and men were glad to return once more to faith in Elohim and His

word.

Concerning the two witnesses the prophet declares further,

"And they heard a great voice from Heaven saying unto them,

Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud, and

their enemies beheld them." Revelation 11:12. Since the French

Revolution, the word of Elohim has been honored as never before.

The Bible has been translated into nearly every language spoken by

men, and scattered over every part of the globe. After being, as it

were, thrust down to hell, it has in truth, been exalted to heaven.

These two witnesses will testify of the Glory of Yeshua until that

wonderful day when He returns to testify in person.

This was not the end of the beast Empire however; through

the course of the reformation, the beast has been growing and

expanding its reach. Through Spain and France, expanding into the

Page 80: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

76

far reaches of the world, Romanism has spread throughout the

earth. Because of their callus cruelty and because of the way they

destroyed their credibility they could no longer work in the light so

the Jesuits went underground and now do everything in darkness.

Their tentacles have infiltrated every nation and every tongue, now

from darkness they have taken control of the earth pushing for

their one world order.

The sad thing about this is that, for the most part, the

reformers of the Protestant movements never really reformed.

They kept many of the same falsehoods of the mother church and

did not return to the purity of the Bible. They still keep the same

false sabbaths and much of the idolatry and superstitions. They

have “a form of godliness, but they deny YEHOVAH the power there

of” by claiming that His Law/Torah was done away with. This

makes them Lawless and shows that they follow the lawless one

and not the true Elohim, just as the Mother Church does.

This brings us up the present time. Now in 2017 the New

World Order, orchestrated through the Jesuit, with its satanic

banking cabal is very close to having a complete stranglehold on

the earth once again. The Beast has quietly grown becoming

worldwide empire now ruling from the United Nations. Great

Britain, the United States and Russia are the leaders of this Empire

each having veto power. Every nation on earth is part of the U.N.

and to some degree gives their power over to it. By underground

underhanded means, the beast has taken over our institutions and

they are propagandizing our people. They have loyal actors deep

within every state who are willing to push their agenda, even on

those nations that do not want their sick and twisted Luciferian

policies.

Rev 11: 15-19 The Seventh Trumpet

Messiah’s Reign Foreseen (Sep 21, 2017)

For the past five hundred years, the two witnesses have

been giving their testimony and the powers of Satan’s Kingdom

have done everything they can to make them dead and obscured.

Satan’s Kingdom has once again grown to become a worldwide

empire and Satan has centered his power through the United

Nations. The Almighty has allowed this to happen because He is

preparing the world for the “last trump,” the seventh trumpet.

As you have probable noticed, I believe that the events of

the book of Revelations happen in sequential order. The next thing

to happen in this sequence is for the Seventh Trumpet to sound.

The trumpet will sound starting a ten-year time frame for

the final judgments to be poured out. As part of this last trumpet,

we will see YEHOVAH bring the two empires, the true Israel and the

beast into full view; we will see the worlds systems be weighed in

the balance, the bowls of wrath, the greater exodus, the coming of

the messiah, the final destruction of the beast empire, the wedding

supper of the lamb, and the establishment of Elohim’s Kingdom on

earth.

Rev 11:15-19 And the seventh angel sounded; and there arose

loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has

become the kingdom of our Lord, and of His Christ; and He will

reign forever and ever." (16) And the twenty-four elders, who sit

on their thrones before Elohim, fell on their faces and worshiped

Elohim, (17) saying, "We give Thee thanks, O Lord Elohim, the

Almighty, who art and who wast, because Thou hast taken Thy

great power and hast begun to reign. (18) "And the nations were

enraged, and Thy wrath came, and the time came for the dead to

be judged, and the time to give their reward to Thy bond-servants

the prophets and to the saints and to those who fear Thy name,

Page 82: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

78

the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the

earth." (19) And the temple of Elohim which is in heaven was

opened; and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple, and

there were flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder

and an earthquake and a great hailstorm.

This last and final trumpet was blown on the day of

Trumpets, Sep 21, 2017. We can see identify this timing because of

the sign that will appear in the next chapter. The reason we know

that 21 Sep 2017 was the Day of Trumpets is because of the new

moon identifying the first day of the seventh month on the Hebrew

Calendar. On the Hebrew calendar, the first day of each month is

identified by the sighting of the new moon. The new moon was

sighted on this day in Israel making this the Day of Trumpets.

You may say that nothing happened on that day. That is

because this scene took place in heaven. YAH had assigned this to

be the beginning of the final few chapters in Bible prophecy. The

twenty-four elders are part of the group of Saints who were

resurrected along with Yeshua. When Yeshua ascended to heaven,

He took this group with Him as a first fruit offering to the Father.

The Ark of the Covenant was opened because YEHOVAH has

remembered His covenant with His people and it is time to pour

out the final blessings and curses that are written in the covenant.

The last time we saw hail and an earthquake it had to do

with civil war in the beast empire. Based on the examples of

previous scripture, the earthquake and the hailstorm will probably

have to do with war occurring among the nations of the Beast

Empire. Tensions are high between Russia, China and the U.S. so

maybe that could be it. Also, we have North Korea and Iran trying

to make nukes and provoking the world. In my opinion, the war is

between the left and the right wing in world politics. This has not

been a shooting war, but since President Trump came on the scene,

we have seen this war come into full view. The populists are trying

Page 83: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

79

to prevent the cultic deep state from taking over and ramming their

sick and twisted policies down their throats. We must remember

that the Beast Empire is now a global Empire under the U.N. and it

is their aim to create a one world Luciferian dictatorship. The

Luciferian cabal is desperate to take final control of the earth

because they know the time is near for their god to arrive. We will

see this take place in a few chapters from now. First there will be

sign in the heavens that will give us guidance for the remaining

events of our age.

The Signs in the Heavens

Before getting into the signs, there are a few things to know

about the constellations. It seems that the gospel is not only

written in the Bible, but also in the stars. This gospel in the stars is

called the Mazzaroth or Zodiac. This is not to be confused with

astrology, which is a counterfeit. In astrology, diviners attempt to

read the stars to create a horoscope. The Mazzaroth, on the other

hand, is a story that has been written into the stars. This story was

most likely told to Adam by YEHOVAH when they would take their

walks in the garden. Adam then passed it down to his children, and

to this day, the signs of the Mazzaroth and the names of the stars

displaying this story in the heavens are still well known.

This story is about the coming savior who will save

humanity from the evil dragon. Through the ages, pagans have

corrupted the gospel story written in the stars. If we are careful to

remove the mythologies and go back to the original names of the

stars then the gospel message becomes clear.

Isaiah spoke of the Mazzaroth saying, “Lift up your eyes on

high and see: who created these? (the constellations) He who

brings out their host by number, (There are exactly 12 major

constellations in every culture) calling them all by name;

(proclaiming the gospel Psalms 19) by the greatness of his might,

and because he is strong in power not one is missing.” (Isa 40:26)

In Luke 21:25-28 Yeshua told us, “And there shall be signs in

the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth

distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves

roaring; (26) Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking

after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of

heaven shall be shaken. (27) And then shall they see the Son of

man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. (28) And when

these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your

heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.” He did not tell us what

to look for, but those of us who are closely watching have realized

Page 85: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

81

that there is a marvelous sign that took place on September 23,

2017 that started the fulfillment of this prophecy.

When you look up the original names for the planet and

stars in the signs of the Mazzaroth, you will see that they tell the

story of salvation. For instance, the planet Jupiter who’s Hebrew

name is "Tzedek" means, “Righteousness.” Tzedek is known as the

King star and it represents Yeshua the King of Kings. Notice, in the

picture bellow, how it appears to be striped and pierced!

According to Yair Davidiy, the name Saturn is probably

derived from the Hebrew word “Sater,” which means, “hidden.”

The Israelites and the surrounding nations considered Saturn to be

the star of Israel. Because they worshipped on the seventh day of

the week this day became known as Saturn’s day, or as we now call

it Saturday. It is telling that the lost tribes of Israel are now

scattered and hidden among all of the nations of the world.

An interesting thing happens when combining the story told

by the Mazzaroth with the story of Revelations; the book of

Revelations is primarily the story of what happens to the beast

empire while the Mazzaroth is primarily concerned with what is

taking place with the body of Messiah. When we combine these

stories, we see the contrast between those two groups. The

Mazzaroth gives a picture of a loving Elohim avenging His people

and bringing them into His bosom, while the book of Revelations is

the story of an angry Elohim taking vengeance upon a corrupt

people and government who refuse to repent of their evil ways.

(Prophetic Overview)

84

Unlike the rest of the book of revelations that gives specific

events that we can put a time stamp on, these next two chapters

gives us a prophetic overview of both past and future events. We

can set a time stamp on the signs in heaven, but the rest of what

the next two chapters has to say is to give the reader an overview

and to set the stage for the final events that follow.

Rev 12:1-2 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; (2) and she was with child; and she cried out, being in labor and in pain to give birth.

A few days after the last trumpet was blown this sign

appeared in the heavens on September 23, 2017. You can

download a free program called Stellarium, which allows you to

track the movement of the stars from anywhere on the planet and

see this sign for yourself. Notice the sun clothing Virgo, the moon

at her feet, twelve stars above her head, and Tzedek/Jupiter ready

to break forth out of her womb.

Many who were watching for the coming of this sign were

predicting it would be the beginning of the tribulation. No

cataclysmic activity took place when this sign appeared so many

have lost heart, saying, “This is not the sign spoken of by Yeshua.”

You must realize Yeshua did not say that our redemption is here,

He said it is close. This sign along with the rest of the Mazzaroth

gives us a roadmap for the end time events that will take place after

the sign appears.

Notice in the picture above that the planet Tzedek is in the

womb of the virgin. Tzedek entered the womb of the virgin about

nine months prior to this date. Because of what is known as

retrograde motion it remained there for the gestation period of a

human birth. You can also see that on this date there are twelve

stars over the head of the virgin. This is because the planets Mars,

Page 89: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

85

Mercury and Venice have lined up in the constellation Leo that sets

just above the head of Virgo. You can also see that the moon is

under the feet of Virgo.

So what does this represent? First, I need to identify the

players to you. This is going to be a brief study, but if you look up

all of the stars in each of the constellations, you will see that there

is a very in-depth story told by our Creator.

Sun – Clothing the body; the Holy Spirit.

Mercury – A diadem of the crown; the Law, giving us the

standard and the statute of the sacrifice for forgiveness of

sin and a way back to YAH.

Venus – The bright and morning star; another diadem of

the crown; the Prophets, all pointing to the Messiah.

Tzedek/Jupiter – Born of the virgin; justified by the Law

through a sinless life; striped and pierced; our Redeemer.

Saturn – The Church/Assembly washed clean and crowned

in the glory of our Messiah.

Mars – Warring King; second coming. “Yehovah is a warrior;

Yehovah is His name.” (Exodus 15:3)

Moon – Ruler of the night; darkness; Satan; false religion;

false god.

This sign is telling us that we need to look up because our

redemption is near. By pointing out this sign in heaven, YAH is

telling us to look at the stars because the final message to His

children is written in the stars. This sign is the beginning of a ten-

year countdown to the coming of the Kingdom. In Luke 21:25-28

Yeshua told us what to look for so that we will know the time of His

coming, "And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and

upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the

sea and the waves, men fainting with fear and with foreboding of

what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be

shaken. And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud

Page 90: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

86

with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take

place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is

drawing near." Yeshua told us that there would be signs in the sun

moon and stars. The sign He is referring to is the Mazzaroth and it

started here with this sign on Sep 23, 2017.

We also have distress of the nations. As I described in the

last chapter there is a perplexity of the sea as the Beast of the Sea

battels to bring forth its Luciferian doctrine and snuff out the Bible.

If you look at the news, and at what is being put on YouTube, it is

apparent that the people of the earth are in a panic because they

can sense what is coming. There is an urgency in the battle between

good and evil because the world senses that the end is near.

This sign along with the other constellations gives us a road

map of the things that are to follow. By incorporating the gospel

written in the heavens with the book of Revelations, we are able to

develop a time line for upcoming end-time events. The Mazzaroth

is a story written in the heavens and it can be correlated to

Chapters 12 through 22 in the book of Revelations. By tying these

two stories together, it gives us a more complete picture of end-

time events, and it gives us a time line for the events.

Jupiter is known as the King Star. The pagans have changed

the names of the planets, naming them after their heathen gods.

Each civilization has named Jupiter after their primary deity. The

pagans do not get the last word on this subject however. The

pagans did not create the heavens and the earth and they do not

determine the names of the stars. Only YEHOVAH does this,

therefore we will call it by its Hebrew name. In Hebrew, the name

of Jupiter is “Tzedek.”

The meaning of Tzedek is, “righteousness or justice.” This is

one of the root words of the name Melchizedek, who is the King of

Righteousness. Melchizedek is also known as a preacher of

righteousness. That is what this star is, a preacher of righteousness.

It represents the righteousness of Yeshua who is King and Priest

from the order of Melchizedek. As Tzedek moves through the

constellations, it is telling us the plan of salvation.

Page 91: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

87

The constellation Virgo represents the true Church or Israel,

who are one in the same. Two thousand years ago, Israel birthed

the King of Righteousness. Now Israel will birth the righteous body

of that King. As Tzedek makes its trek through the constellations

telling the story of the righteous King and His bride, the events will

be played out on earth.

The crown over the head of Virgo is the constellation Leo,

which represents the fulfilment of the Kingdom. The messages of

this sign is that the true Church, “Israel,” will be crowned with the

Kingdom and bring forth righteousness, just as Saturn the star that

represents Israel is crowned.

The key to understanding the events as written in the

heavens is to follow Jupiter the Tzedek as it takes its trek through

the constellations. It takes a little over eleven years for Tzedek to

go through the constellations. This trek started on about Jul 26,

2016 when Tzedek was about to enter the constellation Virgo.

From there Tzedek entered the womb of Virgo where it stayed for

nine months. It could do this because of what is called retrograde

motion. On Sep23, 2017 we saw the great sign in heaven that is

spoken of in Rev 12.

After this, Tzedek began to go forth out of the womb of the

virgin representing the birth of righteousness upon the earth. This

righteousness will be manifest through Yeshua and his Ecclesia as

they bring forth their Kingdom.

Once Tzedek exits the womb of Virgo, it will continue its trip

through the constellations, which will take about ten years. By

following Tzedek as it passes through each of the constellations, we

can correlate the story of the constellation with the scriptures of

Revelations. The time that the Tzedek is in the constellation will be

approximately when the event occurs on earth.

88

Rev 12:3-6 The Red Dragon (Serpens Dec 25, 2017)

Rev 12:3-4 And another sign appeared in heaven: and behold, a

great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and on his

heads were seven diadems.

While Tzedek was in the womb of the virgin Saturn was in

the constellation Serpens. Notice two things in the drawing of the

constellation above, the man Ophiuchus is wrestling with the

serpent and the serpent is losing its crown. The crown is

represented by the constellation Coronus Borealis. Ophiuchus is a

picture of Yeshua who is wrestling Satan the serpent for control of

the earth. As they wrestle, the serpent is losing its grip on its crown

and on the earth that it now controls.

Page 93: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

89

I did not get the picture of Saturn into this, but Saturn is

down on the right leg of Ophiuchus. Saturn has also been here for

about nine months, where it has been caught up in this battle to be

freed from the spiritual grip the serpent. It is in a battle to be freed

from the false religion and all of the trappings of Satan’s kingdom.

As Tzedek starts to come out of the womb of Virgo, Saturn

starts to move away from the constellation Serpens as if it has been

released from the trappings of the serpent, freed by Yeshua our

Messiah.

Rev 12:4-6 And his tail swept away a third of the stars of

heaven, and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood

before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she

gave birth he might devour her child. (5) And she gave birth to a

son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron;

and her child was caught up to Elohim and to His throne. (6) And

the woman fled into the wilderness where she had a place

prepared by Elohim, so that there she might be nourished for one

thousand two hundred and sixty days.

This describes the fallen nature of Satan who deceives and

causes many to fall. He was the High Priest or Covering Angel of

Elohim’s Kingdom, but he rebelled taking with him those who

chose to follow in his rebellion. Now rather than having a heavenly

nature, those who follow him have become earthy in nature, or

evil.

When Yeshua was born, Satan was ready and waiting to

destroy Him. He tried to kill him as a baby when Herod sent his

henchmen to kill all the babies in Bethlehem. Satan was finally able

to kill Yeshua by having the Temple leaders drum up false

allegations against Him having Him crucified. This scene will soon

be played out again when Satan attempts to kill the Church that

begins its march to bring forth righteousness after 23 Sep 2017.

Rev 12: 5-17 The Rod of Iron (Libra: Jan 2018 - Nov 2018)

(Prophetic Overview)

After Tzedek leaves the constellation of Virgo, it enters into

the constellation Libra. Libra is a picture of a balance. The balance

reminds us of Daniel 5:27-28, "'TEKEL'--you have been weighed on

the scales and found deficient." 'PERES'--your kingdom has been

divided and given over to the Medes and Persians."

In our case, during this period while Tzedek travels through

this constellation, the people, governments, and institutions of

today are being weighed in the balance. The institutions of the

beast empire of our day will be weighed and found deficient. The

beast will soon be crushed and handed over to the true believers

when Yeshua comes to take it by force. Remember the foot of the

virgin was on the moon, which represents Satan who will soon be

crushed. This was prophesied six thousand years ago in the Garden

of Eden when YAH told the serpent, “And I will put enmity between

you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall

Page 95: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

91

bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise him on the heel." (Gen

3:15) The word bruised means to “crush.”

The balance also reminds us of the redemption of Yeshua

Messiah. The word redemption comes from the concept of to buy

or purchase. Yeshua purchased us back from the hands of the

enemy. This redemption is the cause of a great war that ensues for

the minds of the people.

The balance also reminds us of the rod that was used to

measure the Temple. Remember we are the Temple and we are

measured or weighed in the balance by the words written in the

cannon, which is the measuring rod of Elohim.

Rev 12:5-6 And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to

rule all the nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught up

to Elohim and to His throne.

The woman, whose genesis was the covenant of obedience

or circumcision given through Abraham, gave birth to Yeshua.

Yeshua was the only one who was ever successful at keeping that

covenant of obedience given to Abraham. This resulted in the grave

not being able to hold on to Him. YEHOVAH could find nothing that

condemned Yeshua so He was resurrected. Through his obedience,

Yeshua was anointed to be King and Priest over all the earth. Now,

because Yeshua is a quickening spirit who can quicken the rest of

us who were not able to be obedient, we are born again through

His righteousness.

This sign that appears did not appear when Yeshua was

born, it appeared on Sep 23, 2017. Since this does not represent

the birth of Yeshua then who is the man-child that is being born.

We see the answer to this in Exo 4:22, "Then you shall say to

Pharaoh, 'Thus says YEHOVAH, "Israel is My son, My first-born.”

Israel is the first born of YAH; however, because of sin Israel never

became one with YAH. Now through the blood of the Lamb, Yeshua

Page 96: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

92

Messiah, Israel is finally ready to become one with YEHOVAH. Israel

is ready to be born again just as Yeshua was when He was baptized

by John. When Yeshua was born again, the Shekinah or Holy Spirit

came to dwell within Him. This is when Yeshua became the son of

Elohim, the first born among many. Israel is now ready for this to

happen on a large scale as the “manifestation of the sons of

Elohim” comes to fruition.

Here we see a rod again. The first rod we saw was the rod

made of a reed. We discovered that the word rod came from the

root word “cannon.” That rod was made of reed because it needed

to bend and be flexible to allow for the fact that Elohim’s people

were not yet in the eternal Kingdom. Because the Kingdom had not

yet arrived Elohim’s people could not perfectly keep the Law so the

rod needed to be flexible. When the Kingdom is established, the

rod will now be made of iron because it will have the force of the

divine Kingdom behind it. The rod will no longer bend or be flexible.

Yeshua will enforce YEHOVAH’s divine Law and He will have the

power of the Eternal Kingdom to enforce it. With the rod of iron

(Cannon), He will maintain Divine Law.

(6) And the woman fled into the wilderness where she had a place

prepared by Elohim, so that there she might be nourished for

(until) one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

This is reflecting back to an earlier time. After His death

burial and resurrection, Yeshua ascended to heaven where He still

waits to come back and take His Kingdom. After Yeshua was

ascended, the woman or Israel had to flee Judea and go out into

the wilderness. In Biblical terms, everything outside the Promised

Land is considered wilderness. YAH sent His people to the nations

of the world (the wilderness) where they have been able to live

until the 1260 days arrive when He will bring them back to the

Promised Land. Elohim’s people were slowly driven out of the

Page 97: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

93

Promised Land and finally in 70AD they were completely pushed

out.

I believe this scripture should have been interpreted to say,

the woman was sent into the wilderness to be nourished until the

one thousand two hundred and sixty days. One thousand two

hundred and sixty days is the same forty-two month period when

the mystery of Elohim is revealed. The woman has obviously been

waiting for the return of her Messiah since He left. Another reason

I think it is until is that in few scriptures down from this the woman

goes into the wilderness again, but as you will see, at that time she

will be going to the wilderness of Sinai for the Wedding Supper of

the Lamb.

Rev 12:7-12 And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels

waging war with the dragon. And the dragon and his angels

waged war, (8) and they were not strong enough, and there was

no longer a place found for them in heaven. (9) And the great

dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the

devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown

down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.

(10) And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the

salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our Elohim and the

authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren

has been thrown down, who accuses them before our Elohim day

and night. (11) "And they overcame him because of the blood of

the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they

did not love their life even to death. (12) "For this reason, rejoice,

O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the

sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath,

knowing that he has only a short time."

This scripture is depicted by the decan constellation of

Draco and Hercules. Hercules (Yeshua) defeats Draco (Satan) and

Page 98: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

94

casts him out of heaven. The Europeans used to celebrate this with

a fall festival called “Michaelmas.”

This war in heaven takes place because of the son, Yeshua

Messiah, who goes to heaven to take His place at the right hand of

Elohim. Satan is no longer the covering angel who judges man. He

can no longer make accusations against those who choose to

return to the covenants of Torah because Yeshua paid for our sins.

Sometime after Yeshua’s ascension when He arrived in

heaven, He was officially crowned as King and Priest over Israel and

of the earth. In Zachariah, we are given the details of this event:

Zec 3:1-10 Then he showed me Yeshua the high

priest standing before the angel of YEHOVAH, and Satan

standing at his right hand to accuse him. (2) And YEHOVAH

said to Satan, "YEHOVAH rebuke you, Satan! Indeed,

YEHOVAH who has chosen Jerusalem rebuke you! Is this not

a brand plucked from the fire?" (3) Now Yeshua was

clothed with filthy garments and standing before the angel.

(4) And he spoke and said to those who were standing

before him saying, "Remove the filthy garments from him."

Again he said to him, "See, I have taken your iniquity away

from you and will clothe you with festal robes." (5) Then I

said, "Let them put a clean turban on his head." So they put

a clean turban on his head and clothed him with garments,

while the angel of YEHOVAH was standing by. (6) And the

angel of YEHOVAH admonished Yeshua saying, (7) "Thus

says YEHOVAH of hosts, 'If you will walk in My ways, and if

you will perform My service, then you will also govern My

house and also have charge of My courts, and I will grant

you free access among these who are standing here. (8)

'Now listen, Yeshua the high priest, you and your friends

who are sitting in front of you--indeed they are men who are

a symbol, for behold, I am going to bring in My servant the

Branch. (9) 'For behold, the stone that I have set before

Page 99: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

95

Yeshua; on one stone are seven eyes. Behold, I will engrave

an inscription on it,' declares YEHOVAH of hosts, 'and I will

remove the iniquity of that land in one day. (10) 'In that

day,' declares YEHOVAH of hosts, 'every one of you will

invite his neighbor to sit under his vine and under his fig

tree.'"

If you are familiar with this verse, you will have noticed that

I changed the name from Joshua to Yeshua. Joshua is the Anglicized

form of Yeshua. If you look up the name in the concordance, you

will see that the name is Yeshua.

What is taking place here is that Satan is rebuked or fired

from his position as the covering angel. In the Bible, clothing

represents the character of the person. Filthy clothing represents a

sinful nature. We know that Yeshua was without sin so how is it

that Yeshua has on filthy rags for clothing. The answer is that

Yeshua took the sins of the world upon Himself so that whoever

will believe will have their sins removed to be saved. Those filthy

rags containing the sins of the world are removed and Yeshua is

given the garment of the High Priest of Israel and He is given charge

of the Kingdom of Elohim. After this, Satan was cast out of heaven.

All secret societies are waiting anxiously for Satan’s release.

Check out the picture below of Lucifer ascending out of the

underworld bringing with him his demonic hoards. This idol depicts

the anti-Christ ascending out of the underworld when he is

revealed to the earth. This anti-Christ has been at work all along,

but the earth is blinded to who he is. The Bible seems to indicate

that he will soon come in the flesh. The world will be given what

they desire as they receive their lawless king. This king has been

represented by the name Jesus as he has attempted to disguise

himself as the benevolent Christ. As has been prophesied, the anti-

Christ will be revealed in the end times.

Page 100: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

96

Through Satan, all people would be condemned, but

through Yeshua, those who will repent are saved through “the

blood of the Lamb and the word of the testimony” or covenant of

Elohim. Remember, a testament and a covenant is the same thing.

They are referring to Elohim’s Law, which has the purpose of

perfecting a people. Yeshua is the Word or Promise of Elohim;

therefore, it is by YEHOVAH’s promise or word as set forth in Torah,

and by the blood of the Lamb that we are saved. It is not our self-

centered testimony of our experience of salvation that saves us.

The word of the testimony is referring to Torah and Yeshua who is

the sacrificial Lamb required by Torah/Law, the testament or

covenant of Elohim. The balance is no longer in the hands of Satan

who would condemn all. Yeshua now holds the balance and those

who will repent and turn back to the Law are redeemed.

There is no longer a place in heaven for Satan now that

Yeshua is there. A war in heaven ensued and Satan was thrown

down to the earth. He will soon be revealed to the world. This will

most likely take place in Rev 13. Satan the Azazel goat was cast out

into the wilderness (earth) while Yeshua, the one who was sent to

to be sacrificed, stayed by the right hand of YEHOVAH. This seen

used to be played out every year on the day of Atonement (Lev 16).

Page 101: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

97

Satan the lawless one will be here in the flesh and he will be

crowned by his followers and given control of the earth. He will rule

the earth from the United Nations and all the nations on the earth

will give their power over to him.

Rev 12:13-14 And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down

to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male

child. (14) And the two wings of the great eagle were given to

the woman, in order that she might fly into the wilderness to her

place, where she was nourished for (until) a time and times and

half a time, from the presence of the serpent.

Satan will soon show up on the earth. This could happen on

Christmas day in 2018. The reason for Christmas is because it is the

day that commemorates him. All of the dark forces on earth,

starting with the Black Pope, going through Jesuits, then the

Illuminati, and down to the Free Masons, are in anticipation of their

god, Satan, coming to the earth. This is why they are trying to

create a one-world government so that when Satan arrives they

can set him on a throne and give him ruler ship the earth. This is

their plan and they have worked a long time to bring it about. Soon

the world will get what they want. It will not take but a short while

for Satan’s control to be fully established. He will have full control

of the United Nations and will have his minions persecuting those

who keep the commandments of YAH.

Toward the end of the three and one half year period,

YEHOVAH will gather His people together in the wilderness. A

similar thing happened when YEHOVAH delivered Israel out of

Egypt. We see this in Exodus 19:3-6, “And Moses went up to Elohim,

and YEHOVAH called to him from the mountain, saying, "Thus you

shall say to the house of Jacob and tell the sons of Israel: 'You

yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore

you on eagles' wings, and brought you to Myself. 'Now then, if you

Page 102: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

98

will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be

My own possession among all the peoples, for all the earth is Mine;

and you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation..."

When YEHOVAH brought judgment on the Egyptians, the Pharaoh

was a type and shadow of Satan. Satan will be the leader of the

U.N., the Beast Empire, and YEHOVAH will bring judgment to all the

nations of the earth.

Toward the end of the three and a half year period,

YEHOVAH is once again going to take his people on eagles’ wings

and bring them to Himself. This will begin the greater exodus as

YAH’s people begin to make their way to Mt. Sinai for the wedding

supper of the Lamb.

Rev 12:15-17 And the serpent poured water like a river out of his

mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept

away with the flood. (16) And the earth helped the woman, and

the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river, which the

dragon poured out of his mouth. (17) And the dragon was

enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest

of her offspring, who keep the commandments of Elohim and hold

to the testimony of Jesus.

As Elohim’s people make their way to Mt Sinai, Satan will

send out a river of water to sweep them away. The river of water

that Satan sends out is a false gospel, which will foment hatred

against the woman or true Church. Because of this river of lies and

hatred, a great army will come after the woman to destroy her. The

earth will open up, swallow the army, and rescue the woman.

There are several Biblical examples of this, one being the army of

Pharaoh who were swallowed by the Red Sea and the other during

a rebellion against Moses when Korah and his followers were

swallowed up by the earth.

Page 103: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

99

Yeshua’s people will be migrating to Mt. Sanai from all parts

of the world. When Yeshua protects one stream of people making

their way to Sanai, Satan will turn his attention to another stream

of people. Each time they will be protected by Yeshua.

Back when YEHOVAH delivered Israel from the Egyptians,

He took them into the wilderness where the wedding supper of

Moses took place. The reasons for the wilderness is because He had

to cleanse them, sanctify them, and establish them as a nation

under His rule before they could enter the Promised Land. After

this, when they were ready, He sent Israel in to cleans and sanctify

the Land. The same thing will soon be repeated, only this time it

will be the wedding supper of Yeshua instead of the wedding

supper of Moses.

Rev 13 - The Beast (Scorpio: Nov, 2018 - Nov, 2019)

(The Anti-Christ Revealed)

(Prophetic Overview)

Tzedek has finished its trek through Libra where the earth’s

governments and institutions have been weighed in the balance.

Now Tzedek will travel through the constellation Scorpio.

In Rev 12, YAH revealed the protagonist of the end-time

battle as being Israel, the Bride of Messiah, born of the Virgin. Now

in Rev 13 He is revealing the antagonist, Scorpio the beast empire,

the bride of Satan.

I am going to go deep into the subject of Beast Empire and

pull in a lot of other prophecies in order to give you a better

understanding of the big picture concerning Bible prophecy.

The Two Beasts (The Empire of the Church and the State) Throughout history YEHOVAH has dealt with two empires,

His Empire called Israel, and the beast empire or Satan’s Empire.

The story that is portrayed by Bible prophecy is the story of these

two empires. In the book of Daniel, Daniel had a vision of a statue

where he saw four world empires. The final empire is the two legs

of iron with feet of iron and clay. This forth empire started about

Page 105: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

101

30BC, and it will control the earth until the three and one half years

arrives. This empire started with the rise of the Roman Empire and

it is still in existence today. Please study the following picture and

notice that the legs represent the two beasts, the beast of the earth

and the beast of the sea. Just as the arms represented the Medio

and Persian empires, the two legs represents two parts of the final

empire. These two parts are the Church and the State.

To start with, you need to understand how the beasts relate

to the statue of Daniel. This statue had a head of gold, representing

the Babylonian Empire; it had breasts of silver, representing the

Medio Persian Empire; it had a waist of bronze, representing the

Page 106: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

102

Grecian Empire; and finally it had the legs of iron with feet of iron

and clay, representing the final world Empire. To tie this statue

together with the beasts you have to understand in the vision of

the beasts, that both Daniel and later John saw, were a

continuation of the visions of this statue. The vision of the statue

and the beasts are tied together in their message.

When John saw the continuation of the vision, he saw two

beasts, the “beast of the sea” and the “beast of the earth.” What

these two beasts represent are the two legs on the statue.

Remember, the last Empire was the two legs of iron. These two legs

are the two beasts that work together to control the empire. To

reemphasize, the two beasts, the beast of the sea and the beast of

the earth are the two legs of iron with the feet of iron and clay of

Daniel’s statue.

One leg is the political side of the empire and the other leg

is the false church, or spiritual side of the empire. Since the time

that the beast became the two legs of the statue, it has stood on

these two legs. Most people do not realize that the Universal or

Catholic Church was there since the beginning of the two-leg

empire. Since the beginning of the Roman Empire the political side

of the beast and the spiritual side of the beast have always worked

together to grow and maintain it.

In the beginning, when the beast was called the Roman

Empire the Caesars were considered gods. The Caesars needed the

Pagan Church to direct the worship of the people to themselves. In

return, the leaders of the Church gained power and authority.

During the middle ages, there was a manifestation of the beast

empire where it transitioned into the feudalistic system of

monarchies. In our day, the beast empire has shifted into the world

government system under the banner of the United Nations. In

each case the Church and State have worked together to maintain

and grow Satan’s kingdom. Throughout history, this symbiotic

Page 107: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

103

relationship between the political side and the spiritual side of this

final empire has taken place.

Most prophecy expositors believe that the two legs are the

eastern and western parts of the Roman Empire, but this is not the

case because the empire was not always arranged between the

east and the west. Originally, as it absorbed the Grecian Empire,

the Empire had many providences. As it grew farther into its

ascendancy, it was divided between the north and the south, as

described in Daniel 11. Daniel 11 is a summary, by the angel

Gabriel, of how world events would play out during the seventy

weeks of Daniel.* Many want to put these events into the future,

but these events have already run their course.

The beast empire, as described by Daniel’s statue, has gone

through many metamorphoses throughout its history. The only

constant that we see in this final empire is the two legs, as the

Church and State work together to grow and maintain the Empire.

The contexts of the scriptures describing these two beasts that

represent the two legs of the statue demonstrate the fact that the

Church and the State are the two legs of the final Empire.

Let us examine these two legs of the statue, which are the

two beasts of Revelations:

* Go to www.herealittletherealittle.net and read the article entitled Daniel 11,

an expose outlining the historic events described in Daniel 11.

The Beast of the Sea YAH calls it the “beast of the sea” because it comes out of

the depths of the sea. When the Almighty flooded the earth, He

destroyed all flesh on earth due to judgment against man’s

rebellion. When Noah’s sons began to repopulate the earth, some

of them resurrected this rebellion, which YAH had buried in the

depths of the abyss. Man resurrected the gods of old, dragging

Page 108: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

104

them back up out of the sea where they were supposed to remain

buried. At the Tower of Babel, Nimrod and his followers drug the

rebellion of old out of the sea in defiance to Elohim.

When you are talking about the beast, you are talking about

the kingdom of Satan. Satan is the god of the beast kingdom and it

does his will. Satan requires the worship of all those who live in his

kingdom and he uses the two beasts to direct worship towards

himself. These beasts are his allies in a struggle against Elohim.

The Beast of the Sea:

(Rev 13:1-9)And he stood on the sand of the seashore. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names. And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; and they worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast, and who is able to wage war with him?" And there was given to him a mouth speaking arrogant words and blasphemies; and authority to act for forty-two months was given to him. And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against Elohim, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, that is, those who dwell in heaven. And it was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them; and authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation was given to him. And all who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slain. If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

“And he stood on the sand of the seashore.” The “he” is

referring to Satan. He is standing on the seashore waiting for an ally

Page 109: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

105

to help him with his rebellion against Elohim. We see the rise of the

beast empire as man dredged up the rebellion of old up out of the

sea. The beast empire or Satan’s empire began at the Tower of

Babel where Nimrod and his followers dredged the pre-flood

rebellion out of the abyss.

The following description of the beast empire is how we

know it is the Satan’s empire, “And I saw a beast coming up out of

the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were

ten diadems.” The diadems are a reference to the stones that

Lucifer wore. In YAH’s description of Lucifer he had ten diadems;

"You were in Eden, the garden of Elohim; every precious stone was

your covering: The ruby, the topaz, and the diamond; the beryl, the

onyx, and the jasper; the lapis lazuli, the turquoise, and the

emerald; and the gold, the workmanship of your settings and

sockets, Was in you. On the day that you were created they were

prepared.” (Eze 28:13) As you can see, YAH made Satan for the job

of being covering angel and Satan wore ten diadems. This is where

the ten horns with diadems come from. They represent ten kings

or nations.

Notice that Lucifer was to rule over ten tribes or nations,

but Yeshua is to rule over twelve tribes or nations. There are twelve

diadems on Yeshua’s priestly garments. Here is the difference:

• Ten is the number of perfection, the completion of

Elohim's divine order

• Twelve is the number of governmental perfection

and divine government.

When YEHOVAH finished with creation, He stepped back to

look at what He had created and He said, “Behold, it is very

good.”(Gen 1:31) By good, it is meant that the order would fulfil

the purpose for which it was made. The order provided a place for

man to dwell and thrive. The order that He had created on earth is

Page 110: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

106

represented by the ten diadems worn by Lucifer who was the

covering angel over this order.

At this point YEHOVAH’s Kingdom had not been established

on earth. Now that creation was complete and perfected, YAH still

needed to establish "governmental perfection." Governmental

perfection is represented by the number twelve. Even though

creation had been completed and put into order, divine Law still

had to be established on earth. Once divine law was instituted, the

covering angel would then wear twelve diadems.

Before divine Law could be established, a question had to

be asked of humanity. This question was presented to Adam who

would answer for all of humanity that would come forth from him.

That question was presented to Adam in the form of two trees. The

question was, will you follow My Divine Law and eat of the tree of

life, or will you rebel and eat of the tree of good and evil. Adam’s

answer was that of rebellion.

Satan with his ten diadems, the covering angel, failed in his

duties to lead man in the proper direction. Our covering angel

rebelled, tempted Adam, and Adam followed him into rebellion.

If humanity had agreed to not rebel against Elohim, and if

Adam had chosen to take from the tree of life, then Elohim’s work

would have been done concerning humanity. Man would have

most likely stepped into divine government without the slightest

problem. If Satan, the covering angel, had not rebelled he may have

taken on two more diadems to signify the transition into divine

government, but satan failed in his duties and humanity chose to

rebel. As a result, YEHOVAH had to raise up a new covering angel,

the one who would establish divine government on earth and dawn

the twelve diadems.

Now that man rebelled, YEHOVAH had to do a new work of

creation. For the last six thousand years, YEHOVAH has been

working to set forth his divine Law by turning the heart of man

Page 111: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

107

away from his rebellion. He has also been working to restore

intimacy with His children. To do this He had to create a new

covering angel. In order to save us from our sin this new covering

angel was hung on a tree to pay the price for our sins. “But he was

wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities:

the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes

we are healed.”(Isaiah 53:5) From the beginning, it was YEHOVAH’s

plan for humanity to take of the tree of life. Now when we accept

Yeshua as our sacrificial Lamb our rebellion ends and our hearts are

transformed. YEHOVAH’s divine government can now be

completed. The Law will complete its purpose of creating a

righteous people. We will now be able partake of the tree of life.

Returning to the beast of the sea, we see that the beast has

ten horns, which represent ten regions, governments, or kings. The

beast empire has gone through many reorganizations, and from its

inception, the number of regions and kings has varied greatly. Do

not get hung up on finding exactly ten governments and try to find

exactly ten kings. No matter how many nations there are, the

nations are represented by the ten diadems because Satan’s

kingdom is represented by the number ten.

The Seven Heads Now we will talk about the seven heads with blasphemous

names. The heads represent the major religions of the world, which

are also called hills or mountains. These are a counterfeit of the

seven spirits of Elohim.

The seven spirits of Elohim are represented by the

menorah. From the example of the menorah, we can see that the

seven spirits are a source of light that are to guide us to the throne

of the Almighty. In YAH’s Kingdom we know who and what the

spirits are because John points them out to us in the book of

Revelations: “As for the mystery of the seven stars which you saw

Page 112: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

108

in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands, the seven stars

are the angels of the seven churches and the seven lampstands are

the seven churches. (Rev 1:20) The angels spoken of here are not

heavenly beings; they are the pastors of the churches spoken of.

The word angel means messenger, and the pastors of the churches

are the messengers of YAH to His flocks. In the Greek, the word

church is “ecclesia,” which means assembly. We know that there

were more than seven assemblies or churches in John’s day so do

not get hung up on finding exactly seven churches. The Church is

represented by the number seven. Seven is the number of

perfection, and YAH is perfecting His Church. This is the message of

the seven churches, the perfected Church, which will be a light to

the world in the millennial reign of the Messiah.

Based on this, we can see that the seven heads of the beast

represent false light or false gospels. It is obvious who one of these

heads is by the context. The head that “was fatally wounded and

healed” is the false messiah. This is a reference to the resurrection

of a false savior god. The world followed the beast because of the

false Christ and the rise of the pagan Christian religion, which

became the largest and most powerful of all the religions on earth.

This religion did away with the Law and the Sabbaths, electing

instead to keep the “venerable day of the sun god” (Sunday),

“Easter” and “Christmas.”

Where this scripture talked about, “The head slain and its

fatal wound was healed,” this is a direct reference to the creation

of the false messiah. This false messiah was slain on Good Friday

and was resurrected on Easter Sunday. Both of these holidays were

borrowed from pagan ritual. The entire world was amazed at the

false messiah, and from the time of Constantine has followed the

beast because of this head that was slain. Have you heard of the

song, Oh Sacred Head Now Wounded, which is based on a Medieval

Latin poem, Salve mundi salutare? This popular ode to the Christ

whose head was wounded depicting the world’s view of the Christ

Page 113: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

109

they follow. This view is in contrast to the truth of scripture, which

says that the Messiahs heal would be wounded, but the head of the

serpent would be crushed.

After the head was healed, “The whole world was amazed

and followed after the beast.” This is the resurrection of the false

messiah. After the creation of the false messiah, the Empire quickly

became the fastest growing Empire on earth. It spread to all

nations and tongues. To this day, it is the largest religion on earth,

and today it has amassed its power through the United Nations

with the United States and other Christian nations being the leader

of this federation. Through the Jesuit order, working underground,

it has infiltrated all of the governments of the world and rules in

darkness.

In Rev 17:11 we see that the beast representing the false

messiah is actually an eighth head, "And the beast which was and

is not, is himself also an eighth, and is one of the seven, and he goes

to destruction.” The eighth head is the rise of the religion that

presents the false messiah.

Now that we have identified one of the heads as being the

false messiah and his religion, we can also determine whom the

other seven heads are that are spreading false light to the world.

They are Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Bahia, Confucianism,

and Shintoism and many more. Satan’s kingdom consists of all the

false religions of the world, which direct the worship of the people

to himself.

Another reason we know that the heads represent religions

is where it says, “…and on his heads were blasphemous names.”

Blasphemy is always associated with false religion, so it only makes

sense that these heads are the false religions of the world directing

the worship of the people toward a false god.

“And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet

were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion.

Page 114: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

110

And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great

authority.” This is what the beast looks like at the end of the age

just prior to going to destruction. Since we live at the end of the

age this is what the beast looks like now.

Daniel 7 is a companion to this verse. John and Daniel saw

the same beast, but Daniel saw the beast from a different vantage

point. When Daniel saw the beast, he saw it as four separate

empires. These empires relate back to the statue he had seen

where the beast represent the four major empires that would

dominate the world throughout history. Daniel would have

understood the lion to be the Babylonian Empire, the bear to be

the Medio-Persian Empire and the leopard to be the Grecian

Empire. Daniel would not have known the origins of the last beast

because it represents the final Empire, which had not come into

existence yet.

We now know that this was the Roman Empire. Initially the

Roman Empire was governed by the system of Emperors with the

pagan Church of Rome leading the worship of the people. Then

during the middle ages, this empire morphed and became the

Roman Catholic Church and the system of Monarchs. In these latter

times the empire morphed once again becoming the United

Nations with the Christian nations, consisting of Protestants and

Catholics, at the forefront of its power. Have you seen the coexist

sign on many bumper stickers:

Page 115: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

111

The final beast has not died and gone away as many believe,

it has just morphed from one state to another along the way. It

went from the legs of iron to the feet of iron and clay and then to

the ten toes as seen on Daniel’s statue.

Later when John saw this beast in his vision, the beasts had

all become one beast with the characteristics of each of the beasts

still intact. As a result, the final beast Empire, which has dominated

the earth since the fall of the Grecian Empire, has ruled the earth

and will rule the earth until the three and one half years comes.

This is the beast having ten horns and seven heads. This beast also

has the characteristics of the empires that were absorbed as each

ascending empire conquered the previous. Now when you see the

final beast it is like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear,

and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. This composite beast is the

final world Empire that is in control of the world today through the

U.N.

Two things have changed since the early years of these

beast nations. One is that the peoples of these nations have

migrated to different parts of the world. The other is that the

peoples from the lost tribes of Israel have been sifted through

these people groups.

To reiterate, there is now only one beast because the final

beast swallowed up the previous beasts. This beast is the beast that

has ten horns and seven heads. This beast is a worldwide in scope

and is in control the entire earth. It was once beaten back to just

the area of Europe, and it has again expanded its territories

becoming a worldwide empire. It is the two legs of the statue, the

church and the state, which work together as one. This worldwide

beast empire is what we now call the United Nations. The Roman

Catholic Church operates through the Black Pope and its Jesuit

cabal to control the affairs of the world through dark and

underground means.

Page 116: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

112

Using scripture, we can identify the final beast nation and

see the characteristics of the lion, bear and leopard in the beast. To

do this, it is best to refer back to Daniel’s description of the beasts

because it gives us more details about the beast. We will look at

Dan 7:3-7 verse by verse.

The first was like a lion and had eagle's wings: I beheld till

the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the

earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man; and a man's

heart was given to it.

Anyone from either the United States (U.S.) or Great Britain

(G.B.) should recognize who this is. The animal symbol for G.B. is

the lion. If you will notice the picture of the British Coat of Arms

below, you will see that the lion is standing on two feet as a man.

Page 117: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

113

Everyone knows that the United States came out of Great Britain

and that its symbol is the eagle. The U.S., whose national symbol is

the eagle, are the wings plucked out of the lion. The man’s heart

given to this beast signifies the philosophy of this kingdom. It exalts

the human more that the divine. It is a man-centered philosophy

called secular humanism. This pertains to both G.B. and the U.S.

Even though the U.S. came out of G.B., they still operate as

a coalition, especially in times of war. In fact, G.B. just had the

Brexit vote where the citizens voted to pull out of the E.U., so we

will most likely see this coalition get stronger.

The next beast is the bear. And, behold, another beast, a

second, like to a bear; and it was raised up on one side, and three

ribs were in its mouth between its teeth: and they said thus unto

it, Arise, devour much flesh. Everyone knows that the bear is the

animal symbol for Russia. It is also well known that Russian regimes

have had a history of brutality and murder. Stalin conducted the

Great Purge to remove opponents of the Communist Party through

the mass arbitrary arrest of many people who were then sent to

correctional labor camps or sentenced to death, thus devouring

much flesh. This is definitely referring to the territory of Russia.

This covers two of the major regions of the world having

major political power and that play a major role in end-time

prophecy.

Next is the leopard. After this I beheld, and, lo, another,

like a leopard, which had upon its back four wings of a bird; the

beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it. For many

years, I have thought that the national animal symbol of Germany

was the leopard. I thought this because I have heard many Bible

prophecy teachers say this. Because of this, I thought that I would

be able to identify Germany as the fulfillment of this prophecy as

easily as I did Russia, G.B. and the U.S. When I went to research for

this book, I was shocked to find out that the leopard is not the

Page 118: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

114

animal symbol of Germany. I spent many hours researching who

else could be the leopard, but there are no other candidates for the

leopard kingdom.

As I continued to contemplate on this, it seemed to me that

the region of Europe is a major political force and had to be

included in Bible prophecy. With Germany being the dominant

nation in the European Union, Germany seemed to be the best

candidate for the leopard. While going through this I ran into a

couple of articles stating that the leopard is the unofficial animal

symbol of Germany. After much consideration, I decided that this

must be the case for several reasons:

• It is established among many Bible believers that Germany’s

animal symbol is the leopard. The Bible was written for

those seeking truth, and among those, this belief has

endured in many camps.

• The panther and the leopard are considered the same

animal. The German people seem to have a particular

fondness for the panther, and we find the term is utilized

broadly in Germanic culture. In the German television

industry, for example, a major vendor is Panther

Electronics. In the military, two prominent naval vessels (a

cruiser and a gunboat) were both named The Panther.

Under Hitler's Third Reich, the primary tanks were named

Panthers, while another tank was the Panther's relative the

Tiger. Indeed, 21st century Germany now manufactures a

tank that has been deployed in Bosnia known as the

Leopard

• We know that these beasts are a description of the world

just prior to the coming of YEHOVAH. Daniel 7:11 says,

“Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful

words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the

beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the

Page 119: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

115

burning fire.” This gives us the time frame of this vision,

which would no doubt be at the end of the age just prior to

Yeshua’s return. Therefore, the European Union has to be

involved. Since Germany is the dominant figure in the E.U.

it only makes sense that Germany would be this leopard.

• The four heads are another clue. We know that Nazi

Germany was the Third Reich. The word Reich means

Kingdom. There have been three German Kingdoms, and

the current German Kingdom makes four. With the fall of

the Berlin wall Germany has once again become a

juggernaut in the heart of Europe. The Fourth Reich had its

genesis in 1951 when Germany (leopard) and France (fowl)

sponsored the European Coal and Steel Community, which

evolved into the present day European Union. The Euro is

now the common currency, and Germany is still the

dominating nation in the EU. This fulfills the prophecy

saying that the leopard would be given dominance because

it has dominance of the E.U. and the E.U. is an extension of

Germany’s power.

• There is the old axiom, which states, “A leopard can't

change his spots.” We have to remember that the Germanic

people have created two world wars. Something in the

German psychic causes them to want to dominate the

world.

The fourth and final beast that came forth from the sea is

the ten-horned beast. After this I saw in the night-visions, and,

behold, a fourth beast, terrible and powerful, and strong

exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and brake in

pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet: and it was diverse

from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. As

previously stated this was the final beast or world empire and it has

devoured the other beast and now they are all one beast. Through

Page 120: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

116

time, this beast has morphed into a worldwide empire. We have

already seen that the ten-horned beast is the Empire of Satan.

Satan’s Empire covers the entire earth and it is governed by the

United Nations.

The number ten represents divine order. Satan is the

covering angel over divine order. Satan and his allies, which are the

nations described above, have rebelled against the establishment

of the divine government being established on earth. Soon they,

along with all the other nations of the earth, will war against the

Almighty for control of the earth.

The ten horns correspond to the ten toes of Daniel’s statue.

This is the final manifestation of the beast empire. The ten horns or

ten toes are all the nations that we see on the earth today. All of

these nations of the world are a part of the federation of nations

called the United Nations. It is a global empire as scripture

predicted. The U.N. is the final manifestation of the beast empire

on earth. It is all the nations of the earth wrapped into one, and

these nations are represented by the ten diadems of Satan, who is

the covering angel over all these nations.

I am always amazed at how the nations of the world

continue to give more and more of their sovereignty over to the

U.N. Eventually they will give complete sovereignty over to the

U.N. for the purpose of fighting Elohim.

Satan, the dragon, gives the beast his power “…and they

worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the

beast…” The beast is Satan’s empire with the power of Satan.

“Then the world follows the beast saying who can make

war with the beast.” This beast has had dominion in war since its

beginning. Each of the Empires represented by the Daniel’s statue

has dominated the earth. The beast has made war with the true

saints of Elohim and has overcome them throughout history. Soon

all nations will give Satan full authority to use their armies to fight

Page 121: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

117

Elohim Almighty in an attempt to extinguish all those who walk

with Elohim.

“And there was given to him a mouth speaking arrogant

words and blasphemies; and authority to act for forty-two months

was given to him.” The arrogant words are a false gospel directing

worship of the people to the false god, Satan. Many scriptures

mention this forty-two month period. This forty-two month period

is the time when the “Mystery of YEHOVAH” is revealed. It is when

the last trump is blown and Elohim’s judgement will come down

from his throne.

In the above scripture, it says that the beast is allowed to

act for (until) forty-two months. This forty-two month period will

take place at the end of the age. Until then the beast, Satan, is given

the power to act in his full capacity. The beast empire is completely

given over to his will and he is be able to do as he pleases. Soon

Satan will control the earth as the head of the United Nations and

will be considered god on earth. He will claim to be the savior god

and make himself out to be king and priest over the earth.

Remember that Satan is a counterfeit of the true Messiah.

The beast empire will attempt to war with YEHOVAH, but it

will be crushed. Dan 7:9-14 paints an awesome picture of YEHOVAH

on His Throne during this event:

"I kept looking until thrones were set up, And the Ancient of Days took His seat; His vesture was like white snow, And the hair of His head like pure wool. His throne was ablaze with flames, its wheels were a burning fire. "A river of fire was flowing and coming out from before Him; Thousands upon thousands were attending Him, and myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; the court sat, and the books were opened. "Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful words, which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the burning fire. "As for the rest of the beasts, their

Page 122: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

118

dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time. "I kept looking in the night visions, And behold, with the clouds of heaven One like a Son of Man was coming, And He came up to the Ancient of Days And was presented before Him. "And to Him was given dominion, Glory and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and men of every language Might serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which will not pass away; and His kingdom is one, which will not be destroyed.

The fire coming out from the throne is the Shekinah Glory.

Deuteronomy 4:24 tells us, "For YEHOVAH your Elohim is a

consuming fire, a jealous Elohim.” As the fire proceeds from the

Throne, everyone on earth will be consumed by it. For those who

are marked for obedience, they will be consumed by YEHOVAH’s

love. YEHOVAH will circumcise their hearts, which will allow the

fire of Elohim, His Shekinah Glory, to come have a resting place

within them. They will become sons of the living Elohim. On the

other hand, those who are marked for disobedience will be

destroyed by the fire of YEHOVAH’s wrath. The beast with ten

horns will be destroyed along with the eight false religions of the

world, "As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken

away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an

appointed period of time.” The United Nations, which is the world

empire, will be destroyed, but the U.S., G.B., E.U., Russia and China

will be preserved for a period. This is so YAH can bring healing to

the nations. (Rev 22)

Rise of the Antichrist To understand the beast empire you must realize that it

began at the tower of Babel and continued to form throughout the

centuries up to the present. Each prophecy that describes the beast

gives us detail about the beast at specific point in time. We have

Page 123: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

119

been discussing the beast as it looks at the end of the age. Now we

need to look at the beast just after it became the two legs of iron.

This will give you an understanding of the origins of the antichrist.

In this, you will see the rise of the antichrist and the rise of the false

church:

(Dan 7:23-27) "Thus he said: 'The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down and crush it. 'As for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise after them, and he will be different from the previous ones and will subdue three kings. 'He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law; and they will be given into his hand for (until) a time, times, and half a time. 'But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion will be taken away, annihilated and destroyed forever. 'Then the sovereignty, the dominion, and the greatness of all the kingdoms under the whole heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Highest One; His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.'

Following the progression of this prophecy you can see that

this is about the same beast empire with ten horns that we have

been discussing, only this prophecy covers the years when it had

just become the two legs of iron. At that time, the beast was the

Roman Empire. This prophecy gives us the details of what took

place during the Roman Period not long after Messiah’s ascension.

It would have been from the time of the ascension to the time of

Constantine.

Through conquest, the Roman Empire was expanding its

territories. As Daniel predicted, ten kings would arise and then one

would come along that would be different. “As for the ten horns,

Page 124: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

120

out of this kingdom ten kings will arise; and another will arise

after them.” The ten horns represent the political leg of the beast

empire. Ten kings, or emperors, will rise up out of the ten horned

beast followed by the one who will be different. There will be many

more then these ten so do not assume that the ten horns and the

ten kings are the same thing. The ten horns are how we identify the

beast empire and out of this empire, these ten kings will be the

initial ones to arise. Following is a list of the ten kings that arose out

of the Roman Empire. These are taken from the Fox Book of

Martyrs. These are also known as the ten persecutions:

• First Persecution, Nero, A.D. 67

• Second Persecution, Domitian, A.D. 81

• Third Persecution, Trajan, A.D. 108

• Fourth Persecution, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, A.D. 162

• Fifth Persecution, Severus, A.D. 192

• Sixth Persecution, Maximus, A.D. 235

• Seventh Persecution, Decius, A.D. 249

• Eighth Persecution, Valerian, A.D. 257

• Ninth Persecution, Aurelian, A.D. 274

• Tenth Persecution, Diocletian, A.D. 303

Each of these Emperors persecuted the followers of Messiah, but

the next one to arise would be different.

We can determine whom this Emperor was because of

clues given about him. These clues are, “he would be different from

the others; he would conquer three kings; he would change times

and Laws; and he would speak out against the Most High.” There

is only one man who this could be and that is the Emperor

Constantine.

Constantine ruled during the Roman era called the

“Tetrarchy and Constantinian Dynasty.” During this time, the

Page 125: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

121

Empire was divided into four main regions; each having an

Emperor, and these regions were each subdivided into provinces,

each providence having an Emperor. In my study, I could not find a

list of exactly how many provinces there were, but it seemed to be

about ten to twelve. During Constantine’s reign, he subdued three

of the main provinces, the Maxentian province, the Licinius

province and the Diocletian province, which was named according

to who ruled the province. By doing this, Constantine became the

controlling Emperor in all of the Roman Empire. This fulfilled the

above scripture, which said, “He will subdue three kings.”

The thing that made Constantine different from the other

Emperors is that he did not call himself a god as the other Emperors

did. Instead, he made Christianity the official state religion and

asserted himself as the Pontifex Maximus with the title Vicar of

Christ. This put Constantine as the head of all the Roman Bishops.

This was not new, all of the Emperors were the Pontifex

Maximus, which means High Priest, but what made Constantine

different is that instead of being “god on earth,” Constantine made

himself the “Vicar of Christ on earth.”

As the Vicar of Christ, Constantine spoke out against the

Most High and determined to change times and Law. Constantine

did exactly this by creating a new calendar, which did away with

YEHOVAH’s reckoning of time, replacing it with a solar calendar. He

also replaced the Biblical Feasts with Easter and Christmas, and he

changed the Sabbath from the seventh day of the week to the

“venerable day of the Sun Elohim,” (Sunday). This was the

beginning of the great apostasy. Constantine did away with the Law

of Elohim and replaced it with his own law. This new lawless

messiah created by Constantine and the false church presented a

false gospel.

The beast would rein and wear out the saints until a time

times and a half of a time. It is well established that a time times

Page 126: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

122

and a half of a time refers to a 1260 day or three and a half year

period. Any time scripture refers to this period, it is referring to the

period when the “Mystery of Elohim is revealed.” This is the last

three and a half years of the beast’s history when our Messiah will

crush the beast empire and establish His reign on earth. So the

beast will reign and wear out the Saints until the Mystery of Elohim

is revealed. The above scripture gives us some clues to what the

mystery is: “But the court will sit for judgment, and his dominion

will be taken away, annihilated and destroyed forever. Then the

sovereignty, the dominion, and the greatness of all the kingdoms

under the whole heaven will be given to the people of the saints

of the Highest One; His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom,

and all the dominions will serve and obey Him.” This is the mystery

of Elohim, the final destruction of the beast empire and the

establishment of YEHOVAH’s Empire.

The Beast of the Earth

Now let us look at the second beast that John saw. This

beast is the second leg of the statue and of the beast empire.

Because of the language used, it is apparent that this beast is the

false church:

Rev 13:11-15 - And I saw another beast coming up out of the

earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke as a

dragon. And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his

presence. And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to

worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. And he

performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down out

of heaven to the earth in the presence of men. And he deceives

those who dwell on the earth because of the signs which it was

given him to perform in the presence of the beast, telling those

who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who had

Page 127: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

123

the wound of the sword and has come to life. And there was given

to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of

the beast might even speak and cause as many as do not worship

the image of the beast to be killed…

YAH uses the term “earth” when describing this beast in

order to signify the fact that this is an earthly religion and not a

heavenly religion. This religion is derived by the imaginations of

men, and not the direction of Elohim, therefore, it is earthly. Some

other names used to refer to this beast are harlot and false

prophet.

In this prophecy, the horns represent streams of power. The

two horns like a lamb are indicating that it is masquerading as the

Lamb of Elohim. These two horns are the Catholic and the

Protestant streams of power of this beast. These two horns have a

lawless messiah masquerading as the true Messiah. If you do not

believe me, go and ask any Christian Pastor if Jesus did away with

the Law. Their answer will always be yes, because universally the

doctrine of Christianity is that the Law was done away with. This

makes Jesus and his followers the lawless one. This is in contrast

with Yeshua who kept the Law, and whose followers teach that the

Law is valid and must be kept.

“And he spoke as a dragon.” This is referring to the false

gospel that this religion teaches. Since the Garden of Eden, Satan

the dragon has been using his false prophets to steer man away

from YEHOVAH and His Law.

“And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his

presence.” This is referring to the symbiotic relationship of the

Church and State. Since the time that the beast became the two

legs of iron, this symbiotic relationship has existed with the beast

empire. Satan has given the false Church authority to preach his

false gospels.

Page 128: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

124

“And he makes the earth and those who dwell in it to

worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.” This is a

reference to the fact that this beast causes all of the earth to

worship the false messiah, or antichrist. The Messiah’s wounds

were healed when He was resurrected from the dead. The false

church copied this and created its own messiah whose wounds

were also supposedly healed. In actuality, what they were doing is

directing the worship of the people towards Satan who is

masquerading as the savior god.

“And he performs great signs, so that he even makes fire

come down out of heaven to the earth in the presence of men.

And he deceives those who dwell on the earth because of the signs

which it was given him to perform in the presence of the beast.”

The fire coming from heaven is in reference to the Holy Spirit or

Shekinah Glory who came in the form of tongues of fire on the one

hundred and twenty in the upper room in Acts 2:3-4, “And there

appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon

each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and

began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them

utterance.” As for the beast, the fire coming from heaven is a false

holy spirit. This false holy spirit can be identified by the fact that it

does not lead the people back to the covenant or Torah of Elohim,

but they continue to be lawless. The primary tenant of Christianity

is that Jesus did away with the Law, so it is lawless. Satan uses lying

signs and wonders as he leads the people astray. Remember when

Moses confronted Pharaoh, the magicians could duplicate YAH’s

miracles up to a point.

“…telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image

to the beast who had the wound of the sword and has come to

life.” They have already made an image of the beast, and it hangs

on the cross in all Catholic Churches. This statue that hangs on the

cross is an idol of the false messiah. The sword supposedly

Page 129: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

125

wounded it. Of course, this is copied from Yeshua who was speared

in the side while on the cross and was later resurrected.

Rev 13:16-18 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and

poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in

their foreheads: (17) And that no man might buy or sell, save he

that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his

name. (18) Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding

count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and

his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

I have explained the mark in previous chapters. You saw

that the word mark and the word sign is the same thing. It is a sign

of what god you worship. Do you worship YEHOVAH the Creator or

do you worship a false god. If you worship the Creator, you will

keep the Sabbath because it was established by Him as a covenant

between Him and His people as a sign or mark of obedience.

(17) And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had

the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

This was the policy in the Roman Empire in order to enforce the

Sunday laws imposed by the Emperors. This could be instituted

again, although, as a Sabbath keeper it has greatly hampered my

ability to find a job where I do not have to work on Saturday. The

world where we now live operates twenty-four seven because of

the love of money. I live in a resort city where the rooms and

condos change over on Saturday. Because of this Saturday is their

most busy day so the resort managers want their workers available

on Saturdays. This makes it difficult to find jobs that do not require

you to work on Saturdays.

(18) Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding

count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and

his number is Six hundred threescore and six. There is much

Speculation about what this 666 is. It is very simple in the context

Page 130: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

126

of the previous verses. The number six is the number of

unperfected man. Remember the number seven represents the

Church or those who believe in the true Elohim. So the number six

is fallen man who has a false god (6), a false religion (6) and a false

savior/sacrifice (6).

We have inherited nothing but lies. We have inherited

lawlessness, including Easter, Christmas, and all the other junk that

has come down from Babylon the mother of harlots and later

adopted by Rome and the harlot Church. If you refuse to come out

of this then the Bible says you are part of the whore of Babylon.

The Bible clearly teaches us to come out of this. Revelations 18: 4

says, "Come out of her, my people, that you may not participate in

her sins and that you may not receive of her plagues; for her sins

have piled up as high as heaven, and Elohim has remembered her

iniquities.”

Come out of this mess and worship the true and living

Elohim. Worship the way He asked to be worshiped in scripture.

This is the path to salvation. Show yourself worthy of His love and

His salvation. Show yourself worthy to be a member of Israel by

being one who will uphold the Laws of His Kingdom. Show yourself

worthy of His sacrifice. The day of the Lord comes soon and all of

the plagues are coming for those who do not keep the Law of

YEHOVAH. They will come pouring out like a flood on the earth.

Those who call themselves the Bride of Christ, but do not do His

will shall suffer an awful fate. In her heart, she says, “I set as A

Queen and I am not a widow, and will never see mourning.” She

thinks that through the rapture, she will be delivered, but she is

deceived.

There is a rapture coming, but the Church has it backwards

of how it will happen. Yeshua explained how it is going to happen

in His parable about the wheat and the tares. In it, He explains the

process, "Therefore just as the tares are gathered up and burned

with fire, so shall it be at the end of the age. “The Son of Man will

Page 131: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

127

send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all

stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, and will cast

them into the furnace of fire; in that place there shall be weeping

and gnashing of teeth. Then THE RIGHTEOUS WILL SHINE FORTH AS

THE SUN in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him

hear.” (Mat 13:40-43) In that day, Yeshua will snatch out or rapture

the lawless ones to be burned in everlasting destruction. Those

who embrace Elohim’s Law will inherit the earth. In the sermon on

the Mound Yeshua told us that the meek would inherit the earth.

The meek are those who do the will of Elohim, as opposed to those

who are so proud that they create their own law and will not follow

Elohim’s.

Another parable that Christianity loves to use concerning

the rapture, and that they have backwards, is Matthew 24:38-42:

"For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating

and drinking, they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the

day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand until

the flood came and took them all away; so shall the coming of the

Son of Man be. “Then there shall be two men in the field; one will

be taken, and one will be left. "Two women will be grinding at the

mill; one will be taken, and one will be left. “Therefore be on the

alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming.” The false

prophets are telling you that those taken away are being raptured

to go be with Elohim, and the unrighteous are left to go through

Elohim’s punishment. This is completely backwards of what the

text says. He said that like in the days of Noah the evil ones were

taken away by YAH’s wrath. Noah was not taken away he inherited

the earth. He entered the safety of the ark where he was preserved

on the earth while YEHOVAH snatched the unrighteous from the

earth, thus cleansing the earth of evil.

Those in the parable, who are not taken away, are not taken

away because they also have entered an ark. We all have an ark

that we can enter so that we are not taken away by the wrath of

Page 132: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

128

Elohim. It is the Ark of Covenant. We see this ark in the Holy of

Holies. If you will recall, within the Ark of the Covenant are the

tablets of the Law. Whoever, enters into this Ark by accepting what

is written on those tablets will not be taken away, but instead they

will inherit the earth.

There is a reason why YAH would allow this false messiah to

rule over the earth for all these years. Paul gave us the answer in 2

Thessalonians 2:8-12, “And then that lawless one will be revealed

whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to

an end by the appearance of His coming; that is, the one whose

coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and

signs and false wonders, and with all the deception of wickedness

for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the

truth so as to be saved. And for this reason Elohim will send upon

them a deluding influence so that they might believe what is false,

in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth,

but took pleasure in wickedness.” The false messiah is a deluding

influence designed to cause those who do not believe the truth to

be exposed for who they are. You may be a good Christian, but the

practices of Christianity are wickedness and they are an

abomination before YEHOVAH. Come out of her and worship

YEHOVAH in truth.

I was once part of Christianity thinking that I was a member

of YAH’s Kingdom. As I studied the Bible, it occurred to me that at

some point Christianity had been highjacked. It was no longer the

Christianity created by the Apostles; unfortunately, it had become

something else. I had to decide if I was going to continue to follow

the false religion that it had become, or was I going to step out of

it and follow the dictates of the Bible.

Yeshua told us that the end would come just like the days

of Noah when the flood came and swept all the inhabitance of the

earth away. The bride of the false messiah is looking for a rapture

to snatch her away to safety, but the rapture they experience will

Page 133: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

129

be to snatch them away to a fiery destruction to be with their god,

the destroyer. The destroyer is the one who leads man away from

the Law of the One True Elohim to exalt himself above Elohim by

being a law unto himself. The snatching will be the wicked of the

earth cast into the fire. Those who have come out of Babylon and

who love the truth are protected by the Passover. The Passover is

clearly taught in the Bible, and when you keep the Law of the One

True Elohim, you practice the Passover on an annual basis. With the

Passover, Elohim will Passover your sins because you have the

blood of the Lamb over the doorpost of your heart. If you practice

Easter, you have no Passover. The Law is our friend not our enemy,

and without it you do not have access to salvation. In the Day of

Judgment will you hear Yeshua say, “Depart from me, all of you

who wondered after the lawless one;” or will you hear, “you

esteemed my Law and entered the Ark of the Covenant, so I

Passover your debt.”

"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. (Eze 22:26)

The Beast Empire or Scorpio still rules the world today as

the ten toes of iron and clay. It is a global Empire, and you reside in

it no matter where you live. All nations are part of the United

Nations and are part of the beast empire. Your only way out is to

enter into the Ark, the Ark of the Covenant.

(First Fruits Harvest)

Because the chapters up to this point are in the past, I can

say with a certain amount of certainty that my analysis is correct.

From this point forward, I am looking into the future so I am only

making an educated guess about what will happen. As you read the

next chapters, please keep this in mind. I am going to lay out a

possible scenario, but it could be much different then what I am

laying out here.

131

In the past two chapters, YAH has been highlighting the two

competing empires, the Empire of those who keep YEHOVAH’s

commandments, and those chose to follow Satan’s empire where

there is no Law. On the world stage, these two empires will begin

to loom large and the competition between them will unfold.

Tzedek will now enter the constellation of Sagittarius. In this

constellation, you see a picture of the Archer with his arrow

pointed at the heart of Scorpio. The bow has been pulled and is

ready to be released when the time comes. The arrow is aimed at

the heart of Scorpio the beast empire. Yeshua is no longer the

sacrifice, but he is now the conqueror, ready to destroy Satan and

his empire. The destruction of the beast empire is now eminent.

Decans for this constellation is:

“Ara,” The alter of the completed sacrifice

“Draco,” the enemy who is to be trodden under foot

In the previous chapter, we saw the two beasts comprising

the beast empire who refuse to follow Elohim. They are a deluding

influence so that those who will not believe YAH will be taken away.

Now in this chapter we see the first fruits of those who are not

swayed by the deluding influence of Satan’s kingdom. The 144,000

are the obedient, keeping the word, or as stated in this verse,

“following the Lamb wherever He goes.”

The use of the number 144,000 represents the entirety of

those saved by the Lamb. Just as seven represents the Church, ten

represents the beast empire, and twelve represents Yeshua’s

Empire, 144,000 represents the entirety of those who are saved.

Rev 14:1-5 And I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on

Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand,

having His name and the name of His Father written on their

foreheads. (2) And I heard a voice from heaven, like the sound of

Page 136: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

132

many waters and like the sound of loud thunder, and the voice

which I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their

harps. (3) And they sang a new song before the throne and before

the four living creatures and the elders; and no one could learn

the song except the one hundred and forty-four thousand who

had been purchased from the earth. (4) These are the ones who

have not been defiled with women, for they have kept themselves

chaste. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He

goes. These have been purchased from among men as first fruits

to Elohim and to the Lamb. (5) And no lie was found in their

mouth; they are blameless.

One decan to this constellation is Lyra, the Harp giving

praise and glory to the conqueror. This group of people is singing

for joy because the Lamb paid our sin debt and we can now go

before Elohim blameless for our sins.

The mark on our foreheads is the acceptance of Elohim’s

Law and His Sabbath’s. This marks us for obedience, and because

of the statute of the Law that allows for forgiveness of sin we are

saved through the blood of the Lamb who defeated Satan at the

cross.

Notice that a portion of the 144,000 is taken as first fruits.

According to the Law, when the harvest is ready, the High Priest of

Israel presents a first fruits offering to YEHOVAH. This will be the

Church of Philadelphia, who Yeshua promised would not go

through the test. As you will notice, Yeshua will normally deal with

His Church and Beast Empire simultaneously.

Rev 14:6-19 And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having

an eternal gospel to preach to those who live on the earth, and to

every nation and tribe and tongue and people; (7) and he said

with a loud voice, "Fear Elohim, and give Him glory, because the

hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who made the

heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters." (8) And

Page 137: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

133

another angel, a second one, followed, saying, "Fallen, fallen is

Babylon the great, she who has made all the nations drink of the

wine of the passion of her immorality." (9) And another angel, a

third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If anyone

worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his

forehead or upon his hand, (10) he also will drink of the wine of

the wrath of Elohim, which is mixed in full strength in the cup of

His anger; and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone in the

presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. (11)

"And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; and

they have no rest day and night, those who worship the beast and

his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name." (12) Here

is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of

Elohim and their faith in Yeshua. (13) And I heard a voice from

heaven, saying, "Write, 'Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord

from now on!'" "Yes," says the Spirit, "that they may rest from

their labors, for their deeds follow with them."

These Angels carry the message of the eternal gospel. The

word angel means messenger. The messenger in this case is

probably referring to the Old Testament, New Testament and the

Mazzaroth, which are an eternal gospel. The Mazzaroth was added

to the witness because of the sign in Rev 12 that points our

attention to this witness adding it to the Old and New Testaments.

This gospel is the gospel of the Kingdom, “repent for the Kingdom

of Elohim is at hand.” This is one of the final pushes to warn the

world before the reaping of the tares begins.

Where this verse says, "Fear Elohim, and give Him glory,

because the hour of His judgment has come; and worship Him who

made the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters,"

This verse is a reference to the Creator, the Elohim of the Sabbath.

Remember when YEHOVAH created the earth the first thing He did

was to establish the Sabbath, so the Sabbath establishes who He is.

Those who do not have the mark of the Sabbath, but instead have

Page 138: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

134

the mark of the beast, or false sabbath, will be punished for their

disobedience.

This is not the gospel of grace as taught by Christianity,

which is a self-centered grace. In their form of grace the Law was

done away leading to disorder. In every church, grace is different,

depending on the fictional interpretation of the pastor. True grace

only comes as being part of the Kingdom. That is the story of

Capricornus. It is the story of the atoning goat given by the high

priest of Israel. Out of the death of the goat, which is our savior,

comes life to the body. This sacrifice can only be given by the High

Priest of Israel in accordance with the Law/Torah. Those who reject

the Law will be condemned by it, while those who embrace it will

be saved by the statute that provides for forgiveness of sin through

the sacrifice and atonement offered by our High Priest.

Rev 14:14-20 And I looked, and behold, a white cloud, and sitting

on the cloud was one like a son of man, having a golden crown on

His head, and a sharp sickle in His hand. (15) And another angel

came out of the temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who

sat on the cloud, "Put in your sickle and reap, because the hour to

reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is ripe." (16) And

He who sat on the cloud swung His sickle over the earth; and the

earth was reaped. (17) And another angel came out of the temple

which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. (18) And

another angel, the one who has power over fire, came out from

the altar; and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp

sickle, saying, "Put in your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters

from the vine of the earth, because her grapes are ripe." (19) And

the angel swung his sickle to the earth, and gathered the clusters

from the vine of the earth, and threw them into the great wine

press of the wrath of Elohim. (20) And the wine press was trodden

outside the city, and blood came out from the wine press, up to

the horses' bridles, for a distance of two hundred miles.

Page 139: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

135

The cloud is the place where the Throne of Elohim is

located. Moses went up into this cloud during the wedding supper

of Moses. Elijah went up into this cloud when he was taken up by

the chariot of fire. Yeshua went up into this cloud when He was

ascended. From this cloud, judgment is being rendered.

The gospel has been available and the peoples of the world

have chosen whom they will follow. All have now been weighed in

the balance. There is now a clear distinction between the wheat

and the tares, the good grapes and the sour grapes. The reapers

will now begin to swing their sickles to pull out the tares and the

sour grapes where they will be burnt in the fire of Elohim’s wrath.

Notice that the ones being gathered are going to the winepress of

the wrath of Elohim. This begins the judgement and the

punishment of the beast.

This first phase of Elohim’s judgement will most likely be in

the form of a war against Israel as YAH begins to reap the tares.

This apparently will be a very intense war creating much

bloodshed.

I am sure that the horrors of this war will leave the world in

shock creating an atmosphere where peace is of the essence. A

result of this will be the development and the signing of a seven-

year peace agreement with Israel. The text does not indicate this,

but the time frame does. Remember, Daniel told us there would be

a seven-year peace agreement with Israel. Remember this in Daniel

9:27, “And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week:

and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the

oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he

shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that

determined shall be poured upon the desolate.”

As you can see, the peace treaty will be signed at this point

and then three and a half years later it will be broken. The breaking

of the peace treaty is what triggers the bowls of wrath to be poured

out on the beast empire.

Page 140: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

136

The prince that is to come, or the one who replaced the true

Messiah, will make this treaty with the Jews. We determined that

this prince came from the Roman Empire. We also determined that

the Roman Empire now controls the world through the U.N. Since

the beast is primarily headed by the Christian nations, this means

that the seven-year treaty made by the Beast is, for the most part,

a treaty between Israel and apostate Christianity. So essentially,

Israel will make a seven-year covenant with Christianity that will

allow Israel to set up a Temple, or a Tabernacle, and resume the

sacrifice of animals. After three and a half years, the anti-Christ will

cause the sacrifices to cease. This will trigger the wrath of the

Almighty and the three and a half year period will begin. This will

take place when Tzedek gets to the constellation Aquarius.

Rev 15:1 And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous,

seven angels who had seven plagues, which are the last, because

in them the wrath of Elohim is finished.

The sign that John was seeing is the conjunction of Tzedek

and Saturn. This conjunction takes place in late December of 2020.

This signifies the King coming for His Bride. In ancient times, Saturn

was known as the reaper and was normally depicted as having a

sickle. Saturn and Tzedek come into conjunction during this time

frame, which could indicate that King Yeshua will take some of His

people. I have never been a proponent of the rapture because

scripture teaches about the greater exodus. Also, as I explained

earlier, the rapture or snatching away is Yeshua snatching away the

ungodly to be burned in the fire. However, a recent discovery leads

me to believe that one group of people will be taken at this time.

We will not call it a rapture but ascension. They will ascend the way

that Elijah did and the way that Yeshua did.

The reason it is only a partial harvest is because it is the first

fruits offering. This offering will consist of the church of

Page 141: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

137

Philadelphia. Remember when Yeshua sent letters to the seven

churches in Asia only two of the churches were not rebuked. These

were Smyrna and Philadelphia. The lights in the other five churches

eventually went out and they became apostate, embracing pagan

festivals instead of YEHOVAH’s Sabbaths. Of the two churches that

were not rebuked, the church of Philadelphia was given the

promise that they would not go through the hour of testing. We

see this in Rev 3:10 “Because you have kept the word of My

perseverance, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, that hour

which is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who

dwell upon the earth.” What this means is that the church of

Philadelphia will be the ones to ascend at this time.

On the other hand, Smyrna was told that they would go

through the tribulation. Rev 2:10, “Do not fear what you are about

to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison,

that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be

faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.” As you can

see, we are told that we will go through the tribulation. Ten is the

number of the beast empire, so what I think Yeshua is saying is that

we will go through the tribulation with the beast, but when it is

over, we will be crowned with life, while the beast is put to death.

We can identify the church of Philadelphia as being the

Messianic Jews because of what the letter to them said in

Rev 3: 7-9:

"And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: He

who is holy, who is true, who has the key of David, who

opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no one

opens, says this: (8) 'I know your deeds. Behold, I have put

before you an open door, which no one can shut, because

you have a little power, and have kept My word, and have

not denied My name. (9) 'Behold, I will cause those of the

synagogue of Satan, who say that they are Jews, and are

Page 142: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

138

not, but lie--behold, I will make them to come and bow down

at your feet, and to know that I have loved you.”

In this passage, “the key of David” is one clue. Remember

that when Jacob gave the blessings to his sons he gave the kingship

to Judah. This kingship was fulfilled though David who is the

progenitor of the Messiah who will soon fill the Throne of David.

David was from the tribe of Judah. The next clue is where is says,

“Behold, I will cause those of the synagogue of Satan, who say that

they are Jews, and are not, but lie...” This harkens back to the

religious Jews who would not accept the Messiah, but instead

wanted to hang on to their traditions. They were very hard on the

Messianic Jews.

Remember, YEHOVAH did not divorce the House of Judah.

Because they were not divorced, the covenants of the

Commonwealth of Israel are still intact for the Jews. Those Jews

who have accepted Yeshua as their sacrifice are able to go to be

with Elohim in heaven. They do not need to redo their wedding

vows with YEHOVAH.

On the other hand, the House of Israel was divorced by

YEHOVAH. Because the House of Israel was divorced from

YEHOVAH, they returned to being gentiles. This constitutes the

church of Smyrna. Smyrna is the gentiles, who will have to renew

their wedding vows before they can enter into the Commonwealth

and be part of the Nation of Israel. This will not happen until the

end of the tribulation. At that time, there will be a greater exodus

where we will all be gathered for the wedding supper of the Lamb.

We will see the church of Philadelphia again because in Rev

19:14 they are the armies in heaven who are returning with Yeshua

after going out to conquer the beast and the great harlot.

Rev 15: 2-8 The Sea of Glass (Capricornus: Nov 2020 –

April 2021)

Capricorn is depicted by a half goat half fish.

Decans:

“Sagitta” (arrow) The arrow of slaying

“Aquila” (eagle) The falling eagle

“Delphinus” (Dolphin) The pouring out of his soul unto

death

In Latin, Capricorn means, “atonement.” The constellation

formation depicting a goat with a drooping head and leg bent

under its body represents the falling and dying of Yeshua Messiah

bowing to his sacrificial atoning death. Out of this death and

resurrection, comes the formation of His body depicted as a fish,

His body, the body of Messiah.

The images of a half goat and half fish are not coincidences.

The High Priests used goats as sacrificial animals for sin offerings,

Page 144: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

140

(Lev. 9:15, 16, 17, 31) in particular on the Day of Atonement. The

goat was “to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make

atonement for them before the Lord” (Lev. 10:16, 17). Elohim’s

saved people in prophecy are spoken of as fishes. Fish are the

symbol of believers (Jer. 16:15, 16; Ez. 47:1-9). In the First Century,

the ichthus (ˈɪkθəs) became the symbol for Christianity and early

Christians were publicly referred to as Ichthus and Pisces. From

Yeshua’s promise to his disciples, “I will make you fishers of men,”

through salvation, and the testifying waters of baptism, the

multitude of fishes or the Church sprang forth. In the Gospel of

Matthew, the fish is used as a symbol for the kingdom of heaven

(Matt. 4:19, 13:47-50). In this way the Church, or congregation of

saints, rises out of the death of Messiah, sacrificed for the sins of

the world.

(Rev 15:2-4) And I saw, as it were, a sea of glass mixed with fire,

and those who had come off victorious from the beast and from

his image and from the number of his name, standing on the sea

of glass, holding harps of Elohim. (3) And they sang the song of

Moses the bond-servant of Elohim and the song of the Lamb,

saying, "Great and marvelous are Thy works, O Lord Elohim, the

Almighty; Righteous and true are Thy ways, Thou King of the

nations. (4) "Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify Thy name?

For Thou alone art holy; For ALL THE NATIONS WILL COME AND

WORSHIP BEFORE THEE, FOR THY RIGHTEOUS ACTS HAVE BEEN

REVEALED."

The laver in Solomon’s Temple was known as the “sea of

glass.” This is the place of final preparation before entering the

Holy place.

As one enters the Temple complex on their way to the Holy

Place, the first thing one sees is the altar of burnt offerings. If one

has an offering then one is allowed to proceed to the next station,

which is the laver, or the sea of glass. Those of us who have

overcome the beast and have not taken his mark are waiting at this

Page 145: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

141

station so that when the time comes we can enter the Holy place.

After this, we will rule the nations.

(5) After these things I looked, and the temple of the tabernacle

of testimony in heaven was opened, (6) and the seven angels

who had the seven plagues came out of the temple, clothed in

linen, clean and bright, and girded around their breasts with

golden girdles. (7) And one of the four living creatures gave to

the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of Elohim,

who lives forever and ever.

The activity in heaven is the seven angels preparing for what

is about to happen on the earth. These seven angels represent the

true Church and they have their priestly garments on, so they are

going to work in their official capacity as High Priests of Israel. The

Tabernacle of the Testimony is the same thing as the Ark of the

Testimony or the Ark of the Covenant. These Priests are most likely

the church of Philadelphia who are being trained and equipped for

the battles to come. They are going to retrieve the curses that are

Page 146: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

142

written in the Torah, the Testimony of YEHOVAH, and they are

preparing to pour these curses out on the earth as the bowls of

wrath.

(8) And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of Elohim

and from His power; and no one was able to enter the temple until

the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished.

The church of Philadelphia will not be able to enter into the

Holy place until the gentile harvest comes to join them. This will

happen at the end of the tribulation. At that time, we will all enter

the Holy Place together.

Rev 16: 1-12, Pouring Out the Spirit/Wrath (Aquarius: April 2021 – April 2022)

(The Third Woe)

(Breaking of the Seven-Year Covenant)

Tzedek will now be moving through Aquarius. Aquarius is

the sixth sign on the path of the righteous star.

Decans:

“Southern Fish” (Southern Realm) the church drinking the

water of life;

“Pegasus” (The winged horse) going to return again; and

“Cygnus” (The swan) the bird of passage who goes and

comes again.

Aquarius is a picture of Yeshua pouring out His water on all flesh.

This will fulfill Joel 2:28-32:

Page 148: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

144

And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour

out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your

daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams,

your young men shall see visions: (29) And also upon the

servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour

out my spirit. (30) And I will shew wonders in the heavens

and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of

smoke. (31) The sun (sun god worship, Christianity) shall

be turned into darkness, and the moon (moon god, Islam)

into blood, before the great and the terrible day of

YEHOVAH come. (32) And it shall come to pass, that

whosoever shall call on the name of YEHOVAH shall be

delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be

deliverance, as YEHOVAH hath said, and in the remnant

whom YEHOVAH shall call.

The thing that triggers the outpouring will be the breaking

of the seven-year peace treaty. The antichrist will enter the Temple

and declare that he is god. He will most likely claim that he is the

messiah returned to rule over his people.

This will be the beginning of the “three and one-half years,”

when the mystery of Elohim is revealed. This period is sometimes

called 1260 days, sometimes times time and half a time, and

sometimes forty-two months. All of these scriptures point to this

event. This is the final showdown between good and evil, between

Yeshua and Satan. When it is over the Kingdom of Elohim will reign,

replacing the Beast Empire as the ruling power on the earth.

The spirit or waters in these bowls contain the blessings and

the curses stated in the Torah, blessings for those who keep the

commandments of YEHOVAH, and curses for those who do not

keep the commandments.

The first six bowls are poured out.

Page 149: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

145

Rev 16:1-16 And I heard a loud voice from the temple, saying to

the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath

of Elohim into the earth." (2) And the first angel went and poured

out his bowl into the earth (the false church); and it became a

loathsome and malignant sore upon the men who had the mark

of the beast and who worshiped his image. (3) And the second

angel poured out his bowl into the sea (the beast empire), and it

became blood like that of a dead man; and every living thing in

the sea died. (4) And the third angel poured out his bowl into the

rivers and the springs of waters (false religions); and they became

blood. (5) And I heard the angel of the waters saying, "Righteous

art Thou, who art and who wast, O Holy One, because Thou didst

judge these things; (6) for they poured out the blood of saints

and prophets, and Thou hast given them blood to drink. They

deserve it." (7) And I heard the altar saying, "Yes, O Lord Elohim,

the Almighty, true and righteous are Thy judgments." (8) And the

fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun (sun god worship);

and it was given to it to scorch men with fire. (9) And men were

scorched with fierce heat; and they blasphemed the name of

Elohim who has the power over these plagues; and they did not

repent, so as to give Him glory. (10) And the fifth angel poured

out his bowl upon the throne of the beast (Satan’s throne); and his

kingdom became darkened; and they gnawed their tongues

because of pain, (11) and they blasphemed the Elohim of heaven

because of their pains and their sores; and they did not repent of

their deeds. (12) And the sixth angel poured out his bowl upon

the great river, the Euphrates (the starting point for sun god cult

where Nimrod pulled the rebellion of old out of the abyss); and its

water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings

from the east.

The people still will not repent so YAH will bring them to the valley

of Megiddo for one last chance.

Rev 17 - Armageddon (Pisces: April 2022 – June 2023)

The constellation Pieces is a picture of two fish. One is

moving toward the pole star and the other is following the path of

the sun. These two fish are bound by a tether that is tied around

their tails and the tether is tied to the head of Cetus the Sea

monster. Aries the ram has his hoof across the tether holding the

fish that are struggling to go free. The meaning of Pieces is: Slave

of religion or servant of Elohim, multiplication of the redeemer’s

people, uphold and governed by the lamb, the intended bride

bound and exposed, and the bridegroom being exalted.

Decans:

(The Band), Uniting the church before and after the first

coming of the Lord

“Cepheus” (The branch), crowned King

“Andromeda” (The Church), released by the Deliverer, who

breaks the bonds of death multiplying the Redeemer’s

people

The Church has been divided by those who wish to follow

YEHOVAH and desire to keep His commandment and those who

would rather follow their own desires and own traditions. This is

represented by the two fish. One is struggling to make it to the pole

star because that is the location of Elohim’s Throne. The other fish

represents the apostate Church following the traditions of men

according to their own lusts. They are following the path of the sun,

the path of the sun god cult.

Those who are struggling to worship the true and living

Elohim will have the tether broken releasing them from the terrible

sea monster as Yeshua pours out His wrath on the monster along

with the apostate church, the beast of the sea and the beast of the

earth.

Rev :13-16 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and

out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false

prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; (14) for they are spirits

of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the

whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day

of Elohim, the Almighty. (15) ("Behold, I am coming like a thief.

Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his garments, lest

he walk about naked and men see his shame.") (16) And they

gathered them together to the place, which in Hebrew is called

Armageddon.

Page 152: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

148

The “three unclean spirits like frogs” are the false gospel of

the high priests of Satan who are going to try their luck against

YEHOVAH once again. They will do signs and wonders, but once

again, they will be no match for the Almighty.

Armageddon is a compound word consisting of the word

“arm,” which in Hebrew means, “to gather,” and “Megiddo,” which

is referring to the valley of Megiddo. So YEHOVAH is going to gather

all the armies of the world together for a great battle.

Off to the side of the valley of Megiddo is a mountain. This

is what is known as the mountain of Megiddo and on this mountain

is a place called Carmel. Carmel is the place where the battle

between Elijah and the wicked Queen Jezebel took place. In this

battle YEHOVAH had Elijah set His power against the power of the

wicked god Baal. We all know the outcome of this when the fire of

Elohim came down and consumed the offering of the lamb before

the people. This turned the hearts of the people back to Elohim and

they turned and slaughtered Jezebel and the wicked priests. Some

may turn at this final battle, but those who do not will have

everlasting destruction coming.

Aries the Lamb is looking backwards towards the

consummation of what He has done. In Hebrew the lambs name is

Taleh, “The Lamb Sent Forth.” In Aries we find the message that the

Lamb is found worthy, the Bride is set free, Satan is bound, the

Breaker triumphs.

raised, enthroned;

“Cetus” (Sea monster) bound by the lamb;

“Perseus” (Armed and mighty men), the Deliverer,

breaking the bonds of the afflicted church.

The story of Aries is told by the decan constellations. This is

the story of Perseus the breaker (Yeshua) who comes swiftly to

rescue the beautiful woman Cassiopeia (the true Church). The

captive woman is delivered from Cetus the sea monster (the beast

150

empire) who is then bound. After binding the monster, Perseus

enthrones this faithful one, who has come out of Babylon and made

herself ready.

The story of Aries is seen in Revelations 16: 17-21, as the

final bowl is poured out on the sea monster, the beast of the sea,

freeing the true Church from its bondage.

Rev 16:17-21 And the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon the

air; and a loud voice came out of the temple from the throne,

saying, "It is done." (18) And there were flashes of lightning and

sounds and peals of thunder; and there was a great earthquake,

such as there had not been since man came to be upon the earth,

so great an earthquake was it, and so mighty. (19) And the great

city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell.

And Babylon the great was remembered before Elohim, to give

her the cup of the wine of His fierce wrath. (20) And every island

fled away, and the mountains were not found. (21) And huge

hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, came down from

heaven upon men; and men blasphemed Elohim because of the

plague of the hail, because its plague was extremely severe.

The earthquake signifies the beast empire being rent

asunder. The armies of the beast empire are destroyed. Now YAH

will turn His attention to the remaining parts of the beast’s society.

Rev 19 – Judgment of the Great Harlot (Taurus: April 2024

– April 2025)

Tzedek will now be entering the constellation of Taurus.

Taurus means, “His glorious coming is eminent.” Taurus is a picture

of a bull, or in earlier cultures, it was an ox. The Hebrew word for

bull or ox is “shur” which also means “to return” or “to come back”.

Decans:

Orion (Glorious prince), The coming of Him mighty to save

Eridanus (Orion’s River), the river, converted nations under

the type of water

Auriga (The good shepherd and his redeemed flock)

The brightest star is Aldebaran, which means “the

follower.” There are two distinct star groups in Taurus: the Hyades

and the Pleiades. Hyades means “congregated” while Pleiades

comes from the Hebrew for “gathering” and the Greek “Pleistos”

or “Pleion” which means “The many”, “the excellent” or “the

great”. Ancient Greeks called them "the clusterers." The Bible

sometimes refers to the Pleiades as the "seven stars" and

sometimes to "Pleiades." They are mentioned in Job 9:9, 38:31-32,

Amos 5:8, Rev.1:16, 20.

In Job, it is the Pleiades, but in Revelation, Messiah is

holding the seven stars in His hand, representing the seven

churches. Since the Hebrew word for the Pleiades comes from the

root meaning "gathering," the meaning was inescapable for the

early church, seven gatherings or seven churches. In the heavens

Pleiades the Church, is riding on the back of the bull. When you see

Pleiades with the naked eye, it looks like seven stares, but when

you look at it through a telescope, it looks like an innumerable

multitude of stars.

The gospel message of Taurus is about the Faithfull Bride

riding on the back of Messiah, whereas, the corresponding

passages in in Revelations is dealing the great harlot riding the

beast.

Rev 17:1-18 And one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls

came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here, I shall show you the

judgment of the great harlot who sits on many waters, (2) with

whom the kings of the earth committed acts of immorality, and

Page 157: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

153

those who dwell on the earth were made drunk with the wine of

her immorality."

I have explained who the harlot is in the chapter about

Scorpio. The harlot is the beast of the earth, with Christianity at the

forefront, and it includes all of the other false religions.

(3) And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness; and I

saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, full of blasphemous

names, having seven heads and ten horns.

In the time of Constantine, the beast made a pact with the

bride saying, “worship me and I will give you a free ride.” The harlot

has been riding the beast ever since.

(4) And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and

adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her

hand a gold cup full of abominations and of the unclean things of

her immorality, (5) and upon her forehead a name was written,

a mystery, "BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND

OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH." (6) And I saw the

woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of

the witnesses of Yeshua. And when I saw her, I wondered greatly.

(7) And the angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I shall tell you

the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which

has the seven heads and the ten horns.

This harlot is all of the false religions of the earth, primarily

Christianity the leader of the cabal. I have documented the harlot’s

murders in previous chapters.

Page 158: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

(8) "The beast that you saw was and is not, and is about to come

up out of the abyss and to go to destruction. And those who dwell

on the earth will wonder, whose name has not been written in the

book of life from the foundation of the world, when they see the

beast, that he was and is not and will come. (9) "Here is the mind

which has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on

which the woman sits, (10) and they are seven kings; five have

fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he

must remain a little while. (11) "And the beast which was and is

not, is himself also an eighth, and is one of the seven, and he goes

to destruction. (12) "And the ten horns which you saw are ten

kings, who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive

authority as kings with the beast for one hour. (13) "These have

one purpose and they give their power and authority to the beast

I do not fully understand this because these nations

probably do not exist in the form that they will during the hectic

time of the tribulation. It appears that the anti-Christ is going to

make a final coalition in a final desperate attempt to win the war

against YEHOVAH. I will identify the actors here:

"The beast that you saw was and is not, and is about to

come up out of the abyss and to go to destruction (Satan)

The seven heads are seven mountains on which the

woman sits, (the false religions)

"And the beast which was and is not, is himself also an

eighth, and is one of the seven, and he goes to

destruction. (Christianity)

"And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who

have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive

authority as kings with the beast for one hour. (13)

"These have one purpose and they give their power and

authority to the beast. (The beast’s armies were

Page 159: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

155

destroyed in the last chapter by the seven bowls, so this

could be an attempt by Satan and the harlot to raise new

kings and armies to continue their war against the

Almighty.)

. (14) "These will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb

(Taurus) will overcome them, because He is Lord of lords and King

of kings, and those who are with Him are the called and chosen

and faithful." (15) And he said to me, "The waters which you saw

where the harlot sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and

tongues. (the decan “Eridanus” Orion’s River) (16) "And the ten

horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the harlot and

will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and will

burn her up with fire. (17) "For Elohim has put it in their hearts

to execute His purpose by having a common purpose, and by

giving their kingdom to the beast, until the words of Elohim

should be fulfilled. (18) "And the woman whom you saw is the

great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth." (Rome or the

Vatican)

Rev 18 –Babylon Fallen, Resurrection of the Saint (Gemini:

April 2025 – June 2026)

At this time, the star that we have been following through

the heavenly gospel will enter into Gemini. The meaning of Gemini

is, “His union with His Bride.” This speaks of Yeshua’s fellowship

with His people, as they get ready to enter into their Eternal

Kingdom.

Decans:

Lepus (Serpent) The enemy under his feet

Sirius (Canus Major - Dog) He that comes as the Prince

Page 161: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

157

Procyon (Canus Minor – 2nd dog) He that comes as the

redeemer

The story told by the decans reminds me of the story of

Jezebel who was a type and shadow of the apostate church. In the

end, Jezebel was destroyed and eaten by dogs. Her husband Ahab

the evil King had his blood licked up by dogs after his death.

The picture of Gemini is of two twin boys setting together

in repose. These two twins represent the House of Judah and the

House of Israel. These two brothers are being reunited in Yeshua

Messiah where they will once again form the twelve tribes of Israel.

At the present, there is only one tribe of Israel left, the tribe

of Judah, or the House of Judah. However, YAH has promised that

He would bring the House of Israel back into the land to join the

House of Judah so that there will again be twelve tribes. All of these

people will be the eleven tribes going back to Israel to join their

brother the tribe of Judah. These will be peoples from all tribes and

nations.

This was YEHOVAH’s plan from the beginning of Israel. He

intended to use Israel to save all the faithful from all of the nations

of the earth. He intended for Israel to be His Kings and Priests to

show the world the blessing that would come out keeping the Law

of Elohim and entice the faithful to join them. Since Israel was

rebellious, YAH had to do something different, so He divorced the

house of Israel and scattered them through the nations, therefore

scattering the seed of promise to all nations. By doing this, He

created one ethnic group, which the New Testament calls the

gentiles. Now out of the gentile nation YEHOVAH will call His People

out to join Him and recreate the House of Israel.

We see this very plainly in the prophecy about the dry

bones in Ezekiel. Notice that it is the House of Israel being

resurrected. The reason the emphasis is placed on the House of

Israel being resurrected is because YEHOVAH divorced the House

of Israel, therefore it was no longer part of the Commonwealth of

Page 162: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

158

Israel and had no part of the covenants and promises thereof.

Through the Blood of Yeshua, the House of Israel can now be

grafted back into the commonwealth.

Eze 37:1-14 The hand of the LORD was upon me, and He

brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD and set me down

in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones. (2) And

He caused me to pass among them round about, and

behold, there were very many on the surface of the valley;

and lo, they were very dry. (3) And He said to me, "Son of

man, can these bones live?" And I answered, "O Lord Elohim,

Thou knowest." (4) Again He said to me, "Prophesy over

these bones, and say to them, 'O dry bones, hear the word

of the LORD.' (5) "Thus says YEHOVAH Elohim to these

bones, 'Behold, I will cause breath to enter you that you may

come to life. (6) 'And I will put sinews on you, make flesh

grow back on you, cover you with skin, and put breath in you

that you may come alive; and you will know that I am

YEHOVAH.'" (7) So I prophesied as I was commanded; and

as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, a rattling;

and the bones came together, bone to its bone. (8) And I

looked, and behold, sinews were on them, and flesh grew,

and skin covered them; but there was no breath in them. (9)

Then He said to me, "Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, son

of man, and say to the breath, 'Thus YEHOVAH Elohim,

"Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these

slain, that they come to life."'" (10) So I prophesied as He

commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they

came to life, and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great

army. (11) Then He said to me, "Son of man, these bones

are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say, 'Our bones

are dried up, and our hope has perished. We are completely

cut off.' (12) "Therefore prophesy, and say to them, 'Thus

says YEHOVAH Elohim, "Behold, I will open your graves and

Page 163: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

159

cause you to come up out of your graves, My people; and I

will bring you into the land of Israel. (13) "Then you will

know that I am YEHOVAH, when I have opened your graves

and caused you to come up out of your graves, My people.

(14) "And I will put My Spirit within you, and you will come

to life, and I will place you on your own land. Then you will

know that I, YEHOVAH, have spoken and done it," declares

YEHOVAH'"

Now in this next part, notice that the House of Israel will be

reunited with the House of Judah.

Eze 37:15-28 The word of the LORD came again to me

saying, (16) "And you, son of man, take for yourself one

stick and write on it, 'For Judah and for the sons of Israel, his

companions'; then take another stick and write on it, 'For

Joseph, the stick of Ephraim and all the house of Israel, his

companions.' (17) "Then join them for yourself one to

another into one stick, that they may become one in your

hand. (18) "And when the sons of your people speak to you

saying, 'Will you not declare to us what you mean by these?'

(19) say to them, 'Thus says YEHOVAH Elohim, "Behold, I

will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim,

and the tribes of Israel, his companions; and I will put them

with it, with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick,

and they will be one in My hand."' (20) "And the sticks on

which you write will be in your hand before their eyes. (21)

"And say to them, 'Thus says YEHOVAH Elohim, "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; (22) 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 they will no longer be divided into two

Page 164: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

160

kingdoms. (23) "And 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 Elohim.

(24) "And 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. (25)

"And they shall 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 sons' sons, forever; and David

My servant shall be their prince forever. (26) "And 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. (27) "My dwelling place also will be with them; and

I will be their Elohim, and they will be My people. (28) "And

the nations will know that I am YEHOVAH who sanctifies

Israel, when My sanctuary is in their midst forever."'"

We will not only be resurrected, but we will also be given

our incorruptible bodies as explained by the Apostle Paul:

1Co 15:50-58 Now I say this, brethren, that flesh and blood

cannot inherit the kingdom of Elohim; nor does the

perishable inherit the imperishable. (51) Behold, I tell you

a mystery; we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

(52) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last

trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be

raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. (53) For this

perishable must put on the imperishable, and this mortal

must put on immortality. (54) But when this perishable will

have put on the imperishable, and this mortal will have put

Page 165: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

161

on immortality, then will come about the saying that is

written, "DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP in victory. (55) "O

DEATH, WHERE IS YOUR VICTORY? O DEATH, WHERE IS

YOUR STING?"

At the same time that this new city is being raised up, our

corresponding verses in Revelations is about the destruction of the

“the great city,” also known as “Mystery Babylon.” Yeshua is raising

up a righteous city while at the same time tearing down an

unrighteous city.

Rev 18:1-24 After these things I saw another angel coming down

from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illumined

with his glory. (2) And he cried out with a mighty voice, saying,

"Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! And she has become a

dwelling place of demons and a prison of every unclean spirit, and

a prison of every unclean and hateful bird. (3) "For all the nations

have drunk of the wine of the passion of her immorality, and the

kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality with her,

and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the wealth

of her sensuality." (4) And I heard another voice from heaven,

saying, "Come out of her, my people, that you may not participate

in her sins and that you may not receive of her plagues; (5) for her

sins have piled up as high as heaven, and Elohim has remembered

her iniquities. (6) "Pay her back even as she has paid, and give

back to her double according to her deeds; in the cup which she

has mixed, mix twice as much for her. (7) "To the degree that she

glorified herself and lived sensuously, to the same degree give her

torment and mourning; for she says in her heart, 'I SIT as A QUEEN

AND I AM NOT A WIDOW, and will never see mourning.' (8) "For

this reason in one day her plagues will come, pestilence and

mourning and famine, and she will be burned up with fire; for the

Lord Elohim who judges her is strong. (9) "And the kings of the

Page 166: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

162

earth, who committed acts of immorality and lived sensuously

with her, will weep and lament over her when they see the smoke

of her burning, (10) standing at a distance because of the fear of

her torment, saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the

strong city! For in one hour your judgment has come.' (11) "And

the merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, because no

one buys their cargoes any more; (12) cargoes of gold and silver

and precious stones and pearls and fine linen and purple and silk

and scarlet, and every kind of citron wood and every article of

ivory and every article made from very costly wood and bronze

and iron and marble, (13) and cinnamon and spice and incense

and perfume and frankincense and wine and olive oil and fine

flour and wheat and cattle and sheep, and cargoes of horses and

chariots and slaves and human lives. (14) "And the fruit you long

for has gone from you, and all things that were luxurious and

splendid have passed away from you and men will no longer find

them. (15) "The merchants of these things, who became rich from

her, will stand at a distance because of the fear of her torment,

weeping and mourning, (16) saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city,

she who was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and

adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls; (17) for in one

hour such great wealth has been laid waste!' And every

shipmaster and every passenger and sailor, and as many as make

their living by the sea, stood at a distance, (18) and were crying

out as they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, 'What city is

like the great city?' (19) "And they threw dust on their heads and

were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, 'Woe, woe, the

great city, in which all who had ships at sea became rich by her

wealth, for in one hour she has been laid waste!'

The final destruction of the harlot takes place and then the

heavens will begin to rejoice.

(20) "Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you saints and apostles and

prophets, because Elohim has pronounced judgment for you

Page 167: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

163

against her." (21) And a strong angel took up a stone like a great

millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, "Thus will Babylon, the

great city, be thrown down with violence, and will not be found

any longer. (22) "And the sound of harpists and musicians and

flute-players and trumpeters will not be heard in you any longer;

and no craftsman of any craft will be found in you any longer; and

the sound of a mill will not be heard in you any longer; (23) and

the light of a lamp will not shine in you any longer; and the voice

of the bridegroom and bride will not be heard in you any longer;

for your merchants were the great men of the earth, because all

the nations were deceived by your sorcery. (24) "And in her was

found the blood of prophets and of saints and of all who have

been slain on the earth

Rev 21 The Greater Exodus, the Bride Makes Herself

Ready

(Cancer: June 2026 – April 2027)

The meaning of the constellation Cancer is, “His Possessions

Held Secure.” It assures us of Elohim’s fulfillment of His promise

that He will have a great Kingdom filled with a multitude of people

from every race, tribe and nation.

In ancient cultures the various names for the crab, all had

the meaning of, “the resting place.” In the midst of Cancer is a

nebulous cluster named Praesepe meaning, “The Multitude,” “The

Offspring,” and “The Innumerable Seed.”

Argo (Shepherd) The company of travelers to the heavenly

Canaan

The apostate church is waiting for a rapture, but as I

explained, the rapture is for the wicked who will be snatched away

to be burned in the fire of Elohim’s wrath, and the faithful will

inherit the earth. We now know there is only a partial taking away

of the true Church, and then the greater exodus will happen. This

exodus will make the exodus out of Egypt pale in comparison.

The Greater Exodus

(Jer 16:14-17) "Therefore behold, days are coming,"

declares YEHOVAH, "when it will no longer be said, 'As

YEHOVAH lives, who brought up the sons of Israel out of the

land of Egypt,' but, 'As YEHOVAH lives, who brought up the

sons of Israel from the land of the north and from all the

countries where He had banished them.' For I will restore

them to their own land which I gave to their fathers.

"Behold, I am going to send for many fishermen," declares

YEHOVAH, "and they will fish for them; and afterwards I will

send for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every

mountain and every hill and from the clefts of the rocks. "For

My eyes are on all their ways; they are not hidden from My

face, nor is their iniquity concealed from My eyes.”

In the last chapter, we saw that YEHOVAH called His people

out of the nations of the world where they have been dispersed.

We also saw the resurrection and the transformation of our bodies.

Now we will make our way to Mt. Sinai to renew our wedding vows

to YEHOVAH. This will be a massive exodus, which will cause the

exodus out of Egypt to pale in comparison.

The prophet Isaiah gives another picture of the coming

exodus:

Page 170: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

166

(Isa 11:11-16) Then it will happen on that day that YEHOVAH 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. 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 YEHOVAH 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.

Through Isaiah, YEHOVAH tells us that He will once again

gather His people, the banished ones of Israel and dispersed of

Judah, from the four corners of the earth. These are the House of

Israel and the House of Judah, which have been scattered

throughout the earth. Some of the Jews will be saved after the

church of Philadelphia is taken away. Ephraim is what YEHOVAH

called the House of Israel after He banished them. The House of

Israel ceased to be a nation so YEHOVAH began referring to the

scattered as Ephraim. This is because Ephraim was given the

birthright over the sons of Jacob/Israel.

There will be two paths for the remnant to take as they

make their way to the wilderness to be with YEHOVAH. One will be

up through the sea of Egypt, which is the Red Sea, and the other

will be down a highway coming from Assyria. Like in the days when

Page 171: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

167

YEHOVAH brought His people out of Egypt the remnant will go

through a body of water. For those coming up from Egypt they will

go through the Red Sea and for those coming down from Assyria

they will go through the Euphrates River. This is the baptism of the

Saints as they make their way to the wedding supper of the Lamb.

Our corresponding text in Revelations is about the

celebration over the bondservant, those who fear Elohim, and the

multitude who are saved out of the tribulation:

Rev 19:1-10 After these things I heard, as it were, a loud

voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, "Hallelujah!

Salvation and glory and power belong to our Elohim; (2) BECAUSE

HIS JUDGMENTS ARE TRUE AND RIGHTEOUS; for He has judged

the great harlot who was corrupting the earth with her

immorality, and HE HAS AVENGED THE BLOOD OF HIS BOND-

SERVANTS ON HER." (3) And a second time they said, "Hallelujah!

HER SMOKE RISES UP FOREVER AND EVER." (4) And the twenty-

four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped

Elohim who sits on the throne saying, "Amen. Hallelujah!" (5) And

a voice came from the throne, saying, "Give praise to our Elohim,

all you His bond-servants, you who fear Him, the small and the

great." (6) And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude

and as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty peals

of thunder, saying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our Elohim, the

Almighty, reigns.

The bondservants are those who are saved and freed from

their captivity to the Babylonian system. The Babylonian system is

one of sin and death where there is no path to salvation and to

Elohim. Yeshua will set us free from this corrupt system and give us

a rebirth. Now freed we will make our way to Mt. Sinai, just as the

tribes did when they came out of Egypt. Once at Mt. Sinai the

Page 172: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

168

people will make themselves ready for the wedding supper of the

Lamb:

(7) "Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him,

for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made

herself ready." (8) And it was given to her to clothe herself in fine

linen, bright and clean; for the fine linen is the righteous acts of

the saints. (9) And he said to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those who

are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb.'" And he said to

me, "These are true words of Elohim." (10) And I fell at his feet to

worship him. And he said to me, "Do not do that; I am a fellow

servant of yours and your brethren who hold the testimony of

Yeshua; worship Elohim. For the testimony of Yeshua is the spirit

of prophecy."

Righteousness or right acts are considered those acts that

we do in accordance with the Law/Torah. Now that all have arrived

at the foot of the mountain of Elohim, the bride will make herself

ready for the clouds of Glory to come down on the mountain, like

they did in the days of Moses.

(11) And I saw heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and

He who sat upon it is called Faithful and True; and in

righteousness He judges and wages war. (12) And His eyes are a

flame of fire, and upon His head are many diadems; and He has a

name written upon Him which no one knows except Himself. (13)

And He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood; and His name is

called The Word of Elohim. (14) And the armies which are in

heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, were following Him

on white horses. (15) And from His mouth comes a sharp sword,

so that with it He may smite the nations; and He will rule them

with a rod of iron; and He treads the wine press of the fierce wrath

of Elohim, the Almighty. (16) And on His robe and on His thigh He

has a name written, "KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS." (17)

Page 173: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

169

And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried out with a

loud voice, saying to all the birds which fly in midheaven, "Come,

assemble for the great supper of Elohim; (18) in order that you

may eat the flesh of kings and the flesh of commanders and the

flesh of mighty men and the flesh of horses and of those who sit

on them and the flesh of all men, both free men and slaves, and

small and great." (19) And I saw the beast and the kings of the

earth and their armies, assembled to make war against Him who

sat upon the horse, and against His army. (20) And the beast was

seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs

in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the

mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two

were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with

brimstone. (21) And the rest were killed with the sword which

came from the mouth of Him who sat upon the horse, and all the

birds were filled with their flesh.

This will be a repeat of how things happened on Sinai when

Moses brought Israel out of Egypt. They were gathered around

Mount Sanai and a cloud came down on the mountain with

lightning and thunder. During this event, only Moses was allowed

to enter into the cloud, which is the entrance to the Holy Place. The

difference this time will be that we will all be able to enter into the

cloud where the tables will be set for the wedding supper of the

Lamb.

Here again, the horse is a symbol of battle and war. Yeshua

clothing is dipped in blood because He is just returning from the

battlefield where He has been conquering the armies of the world

in order to set His Bride free. The blood is the blood of the enemy

that He has conquered. “His eyes are a flamed with fire” referring

to the passion from which He performs His duties as King of Kings.

The sharp sword is the word of Elohim/Torah.

As the vultures feast on the carcasses of those conquered,

Yeshua and the Bride will partake of the “Wedding supper of the

Lamb.”

Rev 22 The Promised Land is Taken (Leo: April 2027 –

Eternity)

Leo means, “His Enemies Destroyed.” This prophetically

assures us that Yeshua Messiah shall be victorious over sin, the

world and Satan. It assures the establishment of His Kingdom on

earth, which brings forth the healing of the nations. As the Tzedek

moves into the constellation Leo, Yeshua and the Bride of Messiah

will move into the Promised Land and establish the Kingdom of the

Living Elohim on the earth and peace will now reign. When YAH’s

Kingdom is established, Israel will begin the process of building the

Page 175: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

171

nation of Israel and of healing the nations, eventually bringing the

entire earth under the rule of Yeshua.

Decans:

Hydra (Serpent) - The serpent, the enemy

Crater - The cup of the wrath of Elohim resting upon him

Corvus (Raven or bird of doom) The bird of prey eating on

his flesh

Star Alphus (Coma) The desired infant held by the woman:

seed

Dino bola (Centaur) Messiah/King offering himself as

sacrifice John

Bootes (Danib Alisid) Coming of branch as guardian of flock

Remember, in the chapter on the book of Daniel I explained

the 1290 and 1335 day prophecy. In that prophecy, the angel told

us that from the time the regular sacrifice is abolished until the

abomination are set up 1290 days or prophetic years would elapse.

Then he said that the abomination of desolation would be set up

and 1335 days or prophetic years would elapse. After this amount

of time, those looking for the Messiah will attain the Kingdom. That

put us at 2026, so after 2026 those of us who are called will attain

the Kingdom.

Another witness for the 2026 return of Yeshua

Most scholars believe that Yeshua will return on a Jubilee

year. The problem is that no one knows when the Jubilee is. There

is a lot of speculation of when it is, but no one really knows for sure.

The timing of the Jubilee was lost in posterity because ancient Israel

never kept it. I have read that Israel never kept even one of the

Sabbatical years, much less a Jubilee. One of the reasons for

Judah’s captivity to the Babylonians was to rest the land because

Page 176: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

172

Israel was not keeping the seven year Sabbatical for the land to

rest.

We can determine when the next jubilee will be based on

Luke 4:16-19:

And He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up;

and as was His custom, He entered the synagogue on the

Sabbath, and stood up to read. (17) And the book of the

prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And He opened the

book, and found the place where it was written, (18) "THE

SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME, BECAUSE HE ANOINTED

ME TO PREACH THE GOSPEL TO THE POOR. HE HAS SENT

ME TO PROCLAIM RELEASE TO THE CAPTIVES, AND

RECOVERY OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, TO SET FREE THOSE

WHO ARE DOWNTRODDEN, (19) TO PROCLAIM THE

FAVORABLE YEAR OF THE LORD."

It is the last verse that gives a clue as to when the Jubilee

year is. When Yeshua said, TO PROCLAIM THE FAVORABLE YEAR OF

THE LORD." He was proclaiming this to be a year of Jubilee. This

was the year He began His ministry, so the year He began His

ministry was a Jubilee.

We can determine what year that was and then come

forwards from there to determine when the next Jubilee will be. It

is pretty well agreed that Yeshua was born in 4BC. He was thirty

year old when He started His ministry. If we add thirty to 4BC,

remembering that there is no zero year, then we get 26AD.

Since the Jubilee is a fifty-year cycle, we can multiply fifty

times forty, which gives us two thousand. Now add two thousand

to the year 26AD and you get 2026AD. This is the next Jubilee and

it is when Yeshua will return to establish His Kingdom.

The book of Exodus tells us that forty days after the

wedding supper of Mosses, YEHOVAH was going to have Israel

enter the Land of Promise to begin the process of taking the Land

Page 177: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

173

and purifying it. Israel being fearful would not go, so they had to

wait forty years before they would enter. This time forty days after

the Wedding Supper, we will go and take the Land of Israel,

consecrate it and begin the task of building YEHOVAH’s Kingdom.

Please enjoy reading the rest of the book of Revelations;

this is where I sign out. May YEHOVAH bless your journey!

Rev 20:1-15 And I saw an angel coming down from

heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.

(2) And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the

devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, (3) and

threw him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, so

that he should not deceive the nations any longer, until the

thousand years were completed; after these things he must be

released for a short time. (4) And I saw thrones, and they sat

upon them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls

of those who had been beheaded because of the testimony of

Yeshua and because of the word of Elohim, and those who had

not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the

mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they came to

life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. (5) The rest of

the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were

completed. This is the first resurrection. (6) Blessed and holy is

the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the

second death has no power, but they will be priests of Elohim and

of Christ and will reign with Him for a thousand years. (7) And

when the thousand years are completed, Satan will be released

from his prison, (8) and will come out to deceive the nations

which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to

gather them together for the war; the number of them is like the

sand of the seashore. (9) And they came up on the broad plain of

the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved

city, and fire came down from heaven and devoured them. (10)

And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire

and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also;

Page 178: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

174

and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (11)

And I saw a great white throne and Him who sat upon it, from

whose presence earth and heaven fled away, and no place was

found for them. (12) And I saw the dead, the great and the small,

standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another

book was opened, which is the book of life; and the dead were

judged from the things which were written in the books, according

to their deeds. (13) And the sea gave up the dead which were in

it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them;

and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds.

(14) And death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This

is the second death, the lake of fire. (15) And if anyone's name

was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the

lake of fire.

Rev 21:1-27 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for

the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no

longer any sea. (2) And I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem,

coming down out of heaven from Elohim, made ready as a bride

adorned for her husband. (3) And I heard a loud voice from the

throne, saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of Elohim is among men,

and He shall dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and

Elohim Himself shall be among them, (4) and He shall wipe away

every tear from their eyes; and there shall no longer be any death;

there shall no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first

things have passed away." (5) And He who sits on the throne

said, "Behold, I am making all things new." And He said, "Write,

for these words are faithful and true." (6) And He said to me, "It

is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the

end. I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the water

of life without cost. (7) "He who overcomes shall inherit these

things, and I will be his Elohim and he will be My son. (8) "But for

the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and

immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their

part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which

is the second death." (9) And one of the seven angels who had

Page 179: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

175

the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, came and spoke

with me, saying, "Come here, I shall show you the bride, the wife

of the Lamb." (10) And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great

and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem,

coming down out of heaven from Elohim, (11) having the glory

of Elohim. Her brilliance was like a very costly stone, as a stone of

crystal-clear jasper. (12) It had a great and high wall, with twelve

gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names were written on

them, which are those of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.

(13) There were three gates on the east and three gates on the

north and three gates on the south and three gates on the west.

(14) And the wall of the city had twelve foundation stones, and

on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the

Lamb. (15) And the one who spoke with me had a gold measuring

rod to measure the city, and its gates and its wall. (16) And the

city is laid out as a square, and its length is as great as the width;

and he measured the city with the rod, fifteen hundred miles; its

length and width and height are equal. (17) And he measured its

wall, seventy-two yards, according to human measurements,

which are also angelic measurements. (18) And the material of

the wall was jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass.

(19) The foundation stones of the city wall were adorned with

every kind of precious stone. The first foundation stone was

jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth,

emerald; (20) the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh,

chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth,

chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst. (21)

And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates

was a single pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like

transparent glass. (22) And I saw no temple in it, for the Lord

Elohim, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple. (23) And the

city has no need of the sun or of the moon to shine upon it, for the

glory of Elohim has illumined it, and its lamp is the Lamb. (24)

And the nations shall walk by its light, and the kings of the earth

shall bring their glory into it. (25) And in the daytime (for there

Page 180: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

176

shall be no night there) its gates shall never be closed; (26) and

they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it; (27)

and nothing unclean and no one who practices abomination and

lying, shall ever come into it, but only those whose names are

written in the Lamb's book of life.

Rev 22:1-21 And he showed me a river of the water of life,

clear as crystal, coming from the throne of Elohim and of the

Lamb, (2) in the middle of its street. And on either side of the river

was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit

every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of

the nations. (3) And there shall no longer be any curse; and the

throne of Elohim and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His bond-

servants shall serve Him; (4) and they shall see His face, and His

name shall be on their foreheads. (5) And there shall no longer

be any night; and they shall not have need of the light of a lamp

nor the light of the sun, because the Lord Elohim shall illumine

them; and they shall reign forever and ever. (6) And he said to

me, "These words are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the Elohim

of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-

servants the things which must shortly take place. (7) "And

behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who heeds the words

of the prophecy of this book." (8) And I, John, am the one who

heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell

down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these

things. (9) And he *said to me, "Do not do that; I am a fellow

servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those

who heed the words of this book; worship Elohim." (10) And he

*said to me, "Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this

book, for the time is near. (11) "Let the one who does wrong, still

do wrong; and let the one who is filthy, still be filthy; and let the

one who is righteous, still practice righteousness; and let the one

who is holy, still keep himself holy." (12) "Behold, I am coming

quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man

according to what he has done. (13) "I am the Alpha and the

Page 181: Bible Prophecy and the Signs in the Heavens · 2 • "the things which are" - the seven Messianic Assemblies that existed at that time and to which John wrote in chapters 2 and 3,

177

Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end." (14)

Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the

right to the tree of life, and may enter by the gates into the city.

(15) Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral

persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who

loves and practices lying. (16) "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to

testify to you these things for the churches. I am the root and the

offspring of David, the bright morning star." (17) And the Spirit

and the bride say, "Come." And let the one who hears say,

"Come." And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who

wishes take the water of life without cost. (18) I testify to

everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if

anyone adds to them, Elohim shall add to him the plagues which

are written in this book; (19) and if anyone takes away from the

words of the book of this prophecy, Elohim shall take away his

part from the tree of life and from the holy city, which are written

in this book. (20) He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am

coming quickly." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. (21) The grace of the

Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.

'Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy

name. 'Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. 'Give us this day our

daily bread. 'And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 'And do not

lead us into temptation, but deliver us from

evil. [For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen!]'
