Most ministers call Abraham a Jew, but no people in the
Holy Scripture were called Jews until 2 Kings 16:6, over 1,000 years
after Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!. Tell them to find the page in the Bible
that says Abraham and Moses were Jews and you will eat it!!
Preachers often speak of the Exodus as being the deliverance of
the "Jews" from Egypt; but the Holy Bible calls them "Israelites," the
"House of Jacob," "Hebrews," "Israel," and Yahweh calls them "the
children of Israel" 122 times in the Book of Exodus. Neither Moses nor
Yahweh EVER called them "Jews," yet you do. Why?
We often quote the promises in GENESIS to Abraham, Isaac
and Jacob as referring to the Jews. In Genesis 17:5, God promised
Abraham he would be "a father of many nations." The Jews are not
"many" nations.
In GENESIS 22:12 God said to Abraham, "In Isaac shall they seed
be called." Are the Jews called "sons of Isaac," or "Isaacsons," or
"Saacsons," or "Saxons?"
Abraham's seed were to be as "The sands of the sea" as promised
in
GENESIS 22:17. In GENESIS 24:60 Rebekah, Isaac's wife, was
promised to be "mother of thousands of millions."
At the time of the Exodus,
Moses prophesied to Israel that God was to make of them "a
thousand times so many as ye are." (Deut. 1:11) There were over
3,000,000 Israelites then, and over 15,000,000 at the time of
David, yet you insist that 15,000,000 Jews today, 3000 years after
David, are "all of Israel!“
How do you give honor to God when your teachings make Him a
liar?.
This is NOT Anti-Semitism, just biblical truth
You insist that Jesus came to the Jews, but in John 10:25 Jesus said to
the Jews,
"But ye believed me not BECAUSE YE ARE NOT OF
MY SHEEP as I said unto you. My sheep hear my
voice, and I know them, and they follow Me."
Which people are
the "sheep" who knew Him and have followed Him the last 1,900 years?
At the time of Judah Kingdom was destroyed in 586 B.C. by the King
of Babylon, the prophet Jeremiah prophesied to the house of Israel,
"You are my battle ax and weapons of war. With you I will break in
pieces the nations, and with you I will destroy kingdoms."
Since that time
have the Jews broken up heathen nations and destroyed pagan rule?
In Gen. 22:17, God told Abraham that his descendants would possess thy
gates of their enemies…have the Jews possessed sea gates or any other
gates of their enemies?.
God told Abraham he would be the Father of many Nations…are the
Jews many nations?.
God told Abraham he would multiply his descendants as the stars of
heaven…are the Jews as numerous as the stars of heaven?.
God told Rebekah that she would be the mother of thousands of
millions, and her seed would possess the gates of those that hate
them…are the Jews thousands of millions and have they ever possessed
the ‘gates of those that hate them?”
God told Jacob that nations would bow down to him…have nations
bowed down to the Jews?.
God told Jacob He would make him a multitude of people and he would
be exceedingly fruitful…have the Jews been a multitude of nations?.
God told Jacob his descendants would possess the gates of their
enemies. Have the Jews possessed the gates of their enemies?
Genesis 12:2-3
• “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I
will bless thee and make thy name great, and
thou shalt be a blessing. And I will bless them
that bless thee, and curse them that curseth
thee: and in thee shall all families of the
earth be blessed.”
Posterity
• Then follows a number of meetings between
God and Abraham. God later meets with
Abraham's son, Isaac, and later with Jacob,
the son of Isaac, and repeats the promises (or
covenants) made with Abraham. All of these
promises and covenants have to do with the
future of Jacob's children.
Heirs of the Covenant
• The rest of the Bible deals almost exclusively with
these heirs of the covenants and the promises,
called in the Bible, "The children of Israel.“ The
Law, the doctrines, the warnings, and
admonishments, are addressed to Israel…NOT
JEWS. All of the Prophets are Israelites. All of the
writers of both the Old Testament and the New
Testaments are Israelites.
• In Amos 3 God said to Israel, "You only have I
known of all the families of the earth.
Romans 9:4
• “Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the
adoption, and the glory, and the covenants,
and the giving of the law, and the service of
God, and the promises."
Promises in NT
• Abraham, though dead 2,000 years by the
time of Christ, is mentioned 69 times in the
New Testament. When Jesus was born,
Zacharias said in Luke 1 that Jesus had come
to remember God's covenant and oath which
God had sworn to Father Abraham. And his
father Zacharias was filled with the Holy
Ghost, and prophesied, saying:
Luke 1:67-73
• “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath
visited and redeemed his people, And hath
raised up an horn of salvation for us in the
house of his servant David; As he spake by the
mouth of his holy prophets, which have been
since the world began: That we should be saved
from our enemies, and from the hand of all that
hate us; To perform the mercy promised to our
fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; The
oath which he sware to our father Abraham...”
Why do we then have the Israelite
Scriptures?
• In Acts 3:13, Peter said the Father of Jesus was "the God of
Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our
fathers.”
• Stephen, the first Christian martyr, began his sermon in
Acts 7: "The God of glory appeared unto our father,
Abraham..."; and then he preached of God and Israel.
• Paul wrote in Romans 15:4, "whatsoever things were
written aforetime were written for our learning...“ So let
us consider just that today — that the Bible is the Book of
God and of Abraham's children — of one man's family,
Genesis 15:5-6
• “And He brought him forth abroad, and said,
Look now toward heaven and tell the stars if
thou be able to number them; And He said
unto him, So shall thy seed be. And he
believed in the Lord, and He counted it to him
for righteousness.”
Genesis 17:3-7
• “And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with
him, saying, As for Me. behold. My covenant is
with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many
nations. Neither shall thy name any more be
called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham:
for a father of many nations have I made thee.
And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will
make nations of thee, and kings shall come out
of thee. And I will establish my covenant
between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in
their generations for an everlasting covenant, to
be a God unto thee, and thy seed after thee.”
Titus 1:3
• Let it be noted that this Covenant was an
Everlasting Contract. Concerning this
Covenant it is said (in Hebrews, chapter 6: vs
13 to 20) that because God had sworn to it by
an oath and because it was impossible for
God to lie, the Covenant is immutable
Genesis 17:15-16
• “And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy
wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but
Sarah shall her name be. And I will bless her,
and give thee a son also of her; yea, I will
bless her, and she shall be a mother of
nations; kings of people shall be of her.”
Not to Ishmael
• V. 19-21:Now Abraham already had a son,
Ishmael, by Sarai's Egyptian handmaid, Hagar,
but this great covenant was not to be made
with Ishmael, but with Isaac.
• Many claim the Ishmael was the father of the modern Arabs.
Yet, there is evidence to suggest that he is instead the father
of the Russians and Slavic Peoples
Genesis 17:19-21
• “And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a
son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac;
and I will establish my covenant with him for an
everlasting covenant, and with his seed after
him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee:
Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him
fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly;
twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make
him a great nation. But my covenant will I
establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto
thee at this set time in the next year.”
Rebekah
• Isaac, the son of Promise, was born according
to God's Word. Isaac later married Rebekah,
and she was given a blessing in Genesis 24:60:
• And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her,
“Thou. art our sister, be thou the mother of
thousands of millions, and let thy seed
possess the gate of those which hate them."
The dust of the earth:
• "And I will make thy seed as the dust of the
earth: so that if a man can number the dust of
the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered"
[Gen. 13: 16].
• "And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth,
and thou shall spread abroad to the west, and
to the east, and to the north, and to the south:
and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families
of the earth be blessed" [Gen. 28: 14].
Jacob and Esau
• Isaac and Rebekah were born twin sons, Esau
and Jacob. Esau, although the elder, sold his
birthright to Jacob, who then became the
rightful inheritor of these covenants. God
appeared to Jacob to confirm these
covenants in Genesis 28:14, 35:10-11
The stars of heaven:
• "And he brought him forth abroad, and said.
Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars,
if thou be able to number them: and he said
unto him. So shall thy seed be." [Gen- 15:5]
The sand of the sea:
• "That in blessing I will bless thee, and in
multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the
stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is
upon the seashore: and thy seed shall possess
the gate of his enemies" [Gen. 22:17].
• "And thou said, I will surely do thee good,
and make thy seed as the sand of the sea,
which cannot be numbered for multitude"
[Gen. 32:12].
Not anti-Jewish, just the truth
• Well…DOES ANY OF THESE PROMISES SOUND
LIKE IT IS TALKING ABOUT THE JEWS?.
• BE HONEST…DOES IT?.
• NO!!!!
• While Jacob was yet alive, Joseph was sold into
bondage in Egypt. A few years later the other 11
sons and their families moved to Egypt, where
Joseph saved them from the famine. While still
in Egypt, Jacob-Israel adopted the two sons of
Joseph — Ephraim and Manasseh as his
firstborn in place of Reuben and Simeon. This
adoption as Israel's firstborn is verified in 1
Chronicles 5:l-2. In Gen. 48:16, Israel said:
• . . . Let my name be named on them, and the
name of my father Abraham and Isaac; and let
them grow into a multitude in the midst of the
earth.”
Ephraim & Manasseh
• In Gen. 48:19 Jacob prophesied that Ephraim
would become greater than Manasseh and
that his seed would become a fullness of
nations.
God had said to Abraham, "I will be a God to you and to
your seed after you." That covenant was formalized with
Abraham‘s seed in what we recognize as a marriage
ceremony, with the bridegroom saying, "Will you obey?"
and the bride answering, "I will." Israel became God's wife.
That the wife-husband relationship is correct is verified in
several passages, including
Isaiah 54:5 —"For thy Maker is thine husband; the
Lord of hosts is his name; and thy
Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The
God of the whole earth shall he be
called."
While Israel was in the wilderness, learning the statutes and
judgments, God gave further promise of future greatness. In
Deuteronomy 33 He gave a separate blessing to each of the
tribes, with the greater blessing recorded for Joseph in verses
13-17.
Turn your Bibles to this passage
This blessing can only mean that the descendants of Joseph were
to have a land blessed with great agricultural harvests, wealth
from the seas, and ores and minerals from the earth. The
greatest portion of the Israel blessings would he fulfilled in the
two sons of Joseph who had been made the inheritors of the
Abrahamic covenants, as we read in Genesis 48.
Joshua
After 40 years in the wilderness, Moses died, and
Joshua brought Israel into Canaan and established
them there as a nation. They had been commanded
to observe God's statutes and judgments and to
destroy the Canaanites out of the land, so they
would not be tempted to follow their gods and
participate in their abominations. This Israel did not
do, and as a consequence, they suffered a series of
captivities during the 400 years up to the time of
David, as recorded in the book of Judges.
David
David came to the throne in Israel in
approximately 1050 B.C., and in 40 years of
war enlarged and secured Israel as one
nation in Canaan, ruling them from
Zion and Jerusalem. At one point, according
to 1 Chronicles 21, David had over one
million, 500 thousand men under arms,
which would indicate that God's promise of
increasing the seed of Abraham was being
fulfilled, with 10 to 15 million people living
in Palestine at that time
David cont’d
When David died, his son Solomon ruled
for another 40 years, establishing an era of
peace and prosperity and building the great
temple to Yehovah. The Israel kingdom was
so blessed it became the marvel of that part
of the world. It seemed as if God's promises
and prophecies of great increase and material
blessings were being fulfilled.
Solomon
But after Solomon's death came a terrible
blow. The nation was divided. The 10
northern tribes established their capital in
Samaria. Jerusalem now ruled only the
southern half of Israel. The rivalry between
the two kingdoms, Judah and Israel,
brought wars, corruption, and sin — even
worship of Baal and the other gods of the wicked Canaanites who
still lived among them. God sent prophets to them, warning them
he would send alien nations against them, who would take them
captive into other lands.
God called Israel's sin adultery and told
her through Jeremiah and Hosea that he
was divorcing her:
“And I saw, when for all the causes
whereby back- sliding Israel committed
adultery, I had put her away, and given
her a bill of divorce.”
----- Jeremiah. 3:8
God said to the northern kingdom in
verse 2 of the second chapter of Hosea:
"Plead with your mother, plead; for she
is not my wife, neither am I her husband."
The northern house of Israel, therefore,
was divorced and no longer the wife of
Jehovah.
First time the word “Jew” appears
• Did you know the word “Jew” is NOT in the
Torah?. It does not even appear until 2 Kings
16:6 when Israel and Judah were fighting
• Few realize Israel and Judah are two SEPARATE
nations. The Jews are of Judah…NOT Israel!!!
• If the Jews are NOT Israel, then who is?. The
Jews are JUDAH…NOT ISRAEL!!!
Assyria
• God sent Assyria to conquer the northern
Israel kingdom. The wars and deportations are
recorded in 2 Kings 16:17-18
• This was bad enough, but the Israelites in the
Judah kingdom were also following the
corrupted ways of the Edomites and
Canaanites, so 7 years later we read 2 Kings
18:13
Jeremiah 7:14
• So the two conquests of Assyria would have
removed the vast majority of the Israelites
into Assyria and out of the land of Palestine.
The number removed would have been in the
millions. The prophet Jeremiah continued to
prophesy to the tiny remnant in Jerusalem;
and in the seventh chapter of Jeremiah, he
told these Judahites that because of their sin,
God would abandon Jerusalem.
Jeremiah 37:8-10
• Shiloh was the place of the Ark of the Covenant, which
God had turned over into the hands of the Philistines,
because of the sin of Israel. In Kings and Chronicles we
have another 100 years of the history of the Judah
kingdom, a history of continuance of sin, some revivals,
but always turning away from the God of Israel. During
that time, Assyria's power declined, and she lost
control over much of her empire, and Babylon grew.
The Judahites remaining at Jerusalem made a peace
treaty with the king of Babylon, and they continued to
sin against the God of Israel. They also tried to enlist
the help of Egypt. God sent Jeremiah to tell Judah that
Babylon would conquer them.
Daniel 9:2
• And it came to pass. Jerusalem was destroyed in about
586 B.C. and the Judahites were taken into Babylon for
the 70-year captivity prophesied by Jeremiah.
• All seems lost. What has happened to the covenants?
What has become of the great promises of God? 70
years later, Ezra did bring back from Babylon to
Jerusalem a handful of Judahites to rebuild their city
and the temple.
• In Ezra 2 that number is given as less than 50,000. Ezra
2:64-65
What happened to Israel?
• But what happened to the other tens of millions
of Israelites who never returned to Jerusalem?
Are their descendants lost from the covenant
promises of God?
• We must now ask the same question Paul asked
500 years later in Romans 11:
• ". . .Hath God cast away his people?“ Paul
answered, "God forbid; for I also am an Israelite
of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of
Benjamin. God hath not cast away His people
which He foreknew."
Can we Identify them today?
• Israelites who were driven out of Palestine
700 years before Christ, and where were they,
if they existed at all, at the time Paul uttered
his statement of confidence in God's keeping
His promises to Israel?
• Can we find out what happened to them, so
that their descendants can be identified in the
world today?
Hosea 17:6
• "In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of
Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away
into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in
Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities
of the Medes.“ 2 Kings 17:6
Scythians
• We now also know what happened to the larger body
of Gamira or Israelites, that did not escape the
Assyrians. They formed an alliance with Esarhaddon,
the king, when he came under attack of the Medes and
the Persians. This treaty allowed the Israelites to
establish colonies in Sacasene in the north and Bactria
in the east. With absolutely no help from the Israelites,
Assyria fell in 612 B.C. Soon the Israelites themselves
came under attack by the Medes. Now those that had
settled in Sacasene moved north through the Dariel
Pass into the steppe regions of south Russia. There
they became known by the Greek name, "Scythians."
Massagetae
• The Israelites that had settled in Bactria were
forced north and east, and in the records of
the Persians they were called Massagetae and
Sakka.
• It was the Massagetae queen Thomyris who
killed Cyrus, the Persian king
Caucasians
• Archeology has solved two of the greatest
archeological problems: First, what happened
to the hundreds of thousands of Israelites who
disappeared south of the Caucasus? and
second, what was the origin of the
Cimmerians and the mysterious nomadic
tribes, known as Scythians, who suddenly
appeared north of the Caucasus — both at the
same time in history?. They were one and the
same people. They were Israelites.
Migration
Germans
• Later, the Sarmatians, these were a mixed, non-
Israelitish people of Iranian origin. They in turn
drove the Scythians northwest to the shores of
the Baltic Sea. At this time in history, we find the
Romans introduced the name "Germans" in place
of the name Scythians, in order not to confuse
the Scythians with the Sarmatians, who now
occupied Scythia. Germanus, being the Latin
name for "genuine," indicates the Germans were
the genuine Scythians
Celts
• During this time the Celts were expanding in all
directions from central Europe. Some of the Celts
invaded Italy and sacked Rome in 390 B.C.
Another group moved back into Asia Minor, in
280 B.C., and the Greeks called them "Galatians,"
as they did another group of Celts that had
settled in Gaul, or modern France. This also
indicates that Paul's letters to the Galatians were
written to his kinsmen Israelites, or at least
descendants of the earlier Galatians.
Iberia
• Some of the Celts moved into Spain and
became known as Iberes, the Gaelic name for
"Hebrews." Others poured into Britain to form
the bedrock of the British race. Later, the
Iberes moved into Ireland as Scots, and later
into Northern Britain to establish the nation of
Scotland.
Broken up Tribes
• Your history books also record the Germanic
tribes breaking up into many divisions — the
Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Danes, and Vikings, to
name just a few. Other Germanic tribes later
poured into the lands vacated by the Celts and
established the Gothic nations of the Vandals,
Lombards, Franks, Burgundians, and others.
• The so-called "lost tribes of Israel" really, were
never lost. They only lost their identity as they
migrated westward over the centuries from the
land of their captivity.
Ezekiel 34:6,11
• In the Old Testament God had promised to
regather divorced Israel unto Himself:
• “My sheep wandered through all the
mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my
flock was scattered upon all the face of the
earth, and none did search or seek after
them. For thus saith the Lord God; Behold I,
even I, will both search my sheep, and seek
them out.”
Israel’s Return to God
• Jesus made it plain He was the instrument
• of Israel's return to God:
• “For the Son of man is come to seek and to
save that which was lost.”
• ----- Luke 19:10
• “But he answered and said, I am not sent but
unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”
• -----Matthew 15:24
Lost Sheep of the House of Israel
• The Greek word ‘lost’ means "put away and
punished."
• So Jesus was saying in Matthew 15:24, "I am
not sent but unto the put away and punished
house of Israel."
Luke 1:72-73
• In Luke 1, Zacharias the priest, who was John
the Baptist's father, said that Jesus came to
redeem His people and
• ". . . To perform the mercy promised to our
[Israel] fathers, and to remember his holy
covenant; The oath which he sware to our
father Abraham."
Galatians
• Paul, an Israelite, wrote to Israelites in the
dispersion in Galatia:
• “When the fullness of the time was come,
God sent forth his Son, made of a woman,
made under the law, to redeem them that
were under the law. . . .”
• -----Galatians 4:4-5
Only Israel under the Law
• Only the Israelites had been under the law.
Romans 15:8 says:
• “. . . . . Jesus Christ was a minister for the
circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm
the promises made unto the fathers.”
Ponder what Jesus said
• "I am the good shepherd, the good shepherd
giveth his life for his sheep" (John 10:11); "The
Son of Man is come to save that which was lost"
(Matt. 18: 11).
• He commissioned His disciples, "As the Father
hath sent Me even so send I you." A study of the
Epistles will soon prove that they have found
Israel where they had been scattered throughout
Western Europe and part of Asia, and in the Isles
of the Sea, north and west of Palestine.
Isaiah
• Yes, "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).
Christ’s death on the cross…
• Redeemed Israel and brought them back from
Divorce.
• He reconciled them back to God.
• This is the Mystery Paul speaks of in Romans
11
About 390 B.C. some of the Cimmerian Israelites invaded Italy and sacked Rome. About
280 B.C. others invaded Greece and as they migrated back into Asia Minor, they were
called "Galatians" by the Greeks. However, most of them spread west and north across
France and began to cross the English Channel into the British Isles.
These early Hebrew-Phoenicians were referred
to as "Tarshish" by ancient records
as well as Bible Scripture. Isaiah wrote "Surely
the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of
Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from afar." (Isaiah
60: 9) and again "I will send those that escape of
them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul. and Lud.
(Lud was an old name for London) that draw the
bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off."
(Isaiah 66: 19) Ezekiel also wrote of the
"merchants of Tarshish" (Ezekiel 38: 13).
Promises Fulfilled
• These promises, as we have seen, were of great
national development, a great increase in
numbers, blessings of the earth and of the sea,
that God would be their God, and they would be
His people. After the death and resurrection of
Jesus Christ, His disciples carried the good news
to dispersed Israel in Europe, beginning what we
know as the Christian era. For 1500 more years
Israel remained in Europe, continuing to grow in
numbers as God had promised their Fathers,
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Blessings and a New Land
• A new continent to the west, a New World,
was discovered by Columbus and other
explorers. Persecution of Christians in Europe
began a migration to the New World, that
began as a trickle and later became a flood.
2,500 years before that, while Israel was still in
Palestine,
2 Samuel 7:10
• “Moreover I will appoint a place for my
people Israel, and will plant them, that they
may dwell in a place of their own, and move
no more; neither shall the children of
wickedness afflict them any more, as before
time.”
Isaiah 11:12
• The prophet Isaiah and others who had
written of Israel's regathering made it plain
Israel would be regathered into a new land as
Christian believers.
• “And he shall set up an ensign[Messiah] for
the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts
of Israel, and gather together the dispersed
of Judah from the four corners of the earth.”
Messiah
• Verses one through ten identify that Ensign as
Jesus Christ, and verse 14 indicates their
regathering would be toward the west.
• "But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the
Philistines toward the west".
Other
• Psalm 72 and Zechariah 9 describe that land
of Israel's regathering as a land between two
seas, and one that would run to the ends of
the earth.
Hosea
• In Hosea 2:14, God had prophesied to cast-off
Israel,
• "Behold, I will allure her, and bring her into
the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto
her."
Our forefathers knew it, but we don’t
• Our pilgrim fathers, who were Christian
Israelites from Europe and knew God's
promises, called this North American
continent "The Wilderness" and "New
Canaanland." They said they had come hither
to establish the Kingdom of God.
• Read Cotton Mather’s sermons
Jeremiah 3:14-15
• “Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord;
for I am married unto you: and I will take you
one of a city, and two of a family, and I will
bring you to Zion: And I will give you pastors
according to mine heart, which shall feed you
with knowledge and understanding.”
2520 years Birthright withheld
• America is that new land, New Israel. America
is the nation born in a day on July 4, 1776,
exactly the prophesied 2520 years after Israel
had gone into the Assyrian captivity.
• “A little one shall become a thousand, and a
small one a strong nation: I the Lord will
hasten it in his time.” Isaiah 60:22
Beulah Land
• It is here that is fulfilled the promise to Joseph,
"blessed of the Lord be his land
• . . ." Deuteronomy 33:13. It is in America that the
wilderness and the solitary place was glad for
them, and the desert has rejoiced and blossomed
as the rose Isaiah 35:1. It is in the North American
wilderness that waters have broken out, and
streams in the desert Isaiah 35:6.
• America is Hepzibah and Beulah land Isaiah
62:4; America truly is God's Country. But now she
has turned into a Moloch-worshipping harlot.
Israel’s Destiny
• Between 1620 and 1870 over 45 million
Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Germanic, and
other Israelites emigrated to America. God
gave them Christian Pastors. God keeps His
promises to Israel.
Red, White, and Blue
• Our flag is made up from the colors of scarlet,
blue and white, the colors of Israel of old. These
colors covered the table of shew bread within the
Tabernacle. Red is the color of blood and signified
justice or judgment, reminding us of the shed
blood of Christ for the redemption of His people
Israel; White, signifying purity or holiness, the
color of snow; (Psalm 50: 7; Isaiah 1: 18). Blue the
color of the sky signifying love and because this is
the color of the heavens it is representative of
God.
Blue missing
• When we look at the Great Whore that sits on
many waters in Revelation 18, we see she is
adorned in scarlet, purple, but blue is
conspicuously missing. In Exodus, blue is
mentioned with scarlet and purple many
times.

Heirs of the Promise

  • 1. Most ministers call Abraham a Jew, but no people in the Holy Scripture were called Jews until 2 Kings 16:6, over 1,000 years after Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!. Tell them to find the page in the Bible that says Abraham and Moses were Jews and you will eat it!! Preachers often speak of the Exodus as being the deliverance of the "Jews" from Egypt; but the Holy Bible calls them "Israelites," the "House of Jacob," "Hebrews," "Israel," and Yahweh calls them "the children of Israel" 122 times in the Book of Exodus. Neither Moses nor Yahweh EVER called them "Jews," yet you do. Why? We often quote the promises in GENESIS to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob as referring to the Jews. In Genesis 17:5, God promised Abraham he would be "a father of many nations." The Jews are not "many" nations. In GENESIS 22:12 God said to Abraham, "In Isaac shall they seed be called." Are the Jews called "sons of Isaac," or "Isaacsons," or "Saacsons," or "Saxons?"
  • 2. Abraham's seed were to be as "The sands of the sea" as promised in GENESIS 22:17. In GENESIS 24:60 Rebekah, Isaac's wife, was promised to be "mother of thousands of millions." At the time of the Exodus, Moses prophesied to Israel that God was to make of them "a thousand times so many as ye are." (Deut. 1:11) There were over 3,000,000 Israelites then, and over 15,000,000 at the time of David, yet you insist that 15,000,000 Jews today, 3000 years after David, are "all of Israel!“ How do you give honor to God when your teachings make Him a liar?. This is NOT Anti-Semitism, just biblical truth
  • 3. You insist that Jesus came to the Jews, but in John 10:25 Jesus said to the Jews, "But ye believed me not BECAUSE YE ARE NOT OF MY SHEEP as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." Which people are the "sheep" who knew Him and have followed Him the last 1,900 years? At the time of Judah Kingdom was destroyed in 586 B.C. by the King of Babylon, the prophet Jeremiah prophesied to the house of Israel, "You are my battle ax and weapons of war. With you I will break in pieces the nations, and with you I will destroy kingdoms." Since that time have the Jews broken up heathen nations and destroyed pagan rule? In Gen. 22:17, God told Abraham that his descendants would possess thy gates of their enemies…have the Jews possessed sea gates or any other gates of their enemies?.
  • 4. God told Abraham he would be the Father of many Nations…are the Jews many nations?. God told Abraham he would multiply his descendants as the stars of heaven…are the Jews as numerous as the stars of heaven?. God told Rebekah that she would be the mother of thousands of millions, and her seed would possess the gates of those that hate them…are the Jews thousands of millions and have they ever possessed the ‘gates of those that hate them?” God told Jacob that nations would bow down to him…have nations bowed down to the Jews?. God told Jacob He would make him a multitude of people and he would be exceedingly fruitful…have the Jews been a multitude of nations?. God told Jacob his descendants would possess the gates of their enemies. Have the Jews possessed the gates of their enemies?
  • 5. Genesis 12:2-3 • “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee and make thy name great, and thou shalt be a blessing. And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse them that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”
  • 6. Posterity • Then follows a number of meetings between God and Abraham. God later meets with Abraham's son, Isaac, and later with Jacob, the son of Isaac, and repeats the promises (or covenants) made with Abraham. All of these promises and covenants have to do with the future of Jacob's children.
  • 7. Heirs of the Covenant • The rest of the Bible deals almost exclusively with these heirs of the covenants and the promises, called in the Bible, "The children of Israel.“ The Law, the doctrines, the warnings, and admonishments, are addressed to Israel…NOT JEWS. All of the Prophets are Israelites. All of the writers of both the Old Testament and the New Testaments are Israelites. • In Amos 3 God said to Israel, "You only have I known of all the families of the earth.
  • 8. Romans 9:4 • “Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God, and the promises."
  • 9. Promises in NT • Abraham, though dead 2,000 years by the time of Christ, is mentioned 69 times in the New Testament. When Jesus was born, Zacharias said in Luke 1 that Jesus had come to remember God's covenant and oath which God had sworn to Father Abraham. And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying:
  • 10. Luke 1:67-73 • “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; The oath which he sware to our father Abraham...”
  • 11. Why do we then have the Israelite Scriptures? • In Acts 3:13, Peter said the Father of Jesus was "the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers.” • Stephen, the first Christian martyr, began his sermon in Acts 7: "The God of glory appeared unto our father, Abraham..."; and then he preached of God and Israel. • Paul wrote in Romans 15:4, "whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning...“ So let us consider just that today — that the Bible is the Book of God and of Abraham's children — of one man's family,
  • 12. Genesis 15:5-6 • “And He brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven and tell the stars if thou be able to number them; And He said unto him, So shall thy seed be. And he believed in the Lord, and He counted it to him for righteousness.”
  • 13. Genesis 17:3-7 • “And Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, As for Me. behold. My covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham: for a father of many nations have I made thee. And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. And I will establish my covenant between Me and thee and thy seed after thee in their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee, and thy seed after thee.”
  • 14. Titus 1:3 • Let it be noted that this Covenant was an Everlasting Contract. Concerning this Covenant it is said (in Hebrews, chapter 6: vs 13 to 20) that because God had sworn to it by an oath and because it was impossible for God to lie, the Covenant is immutable
  • 15. Genesis 17:15-16 • “And God said unto Abraham, As for Sarai thy wife, thou shalt not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall her name be. And I will bless her, and give thee a son also of her; yea, I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of people shall be of her.”
  • 16. Not to Ishmael • V. 19-21:Now Abraham already had a son, Ishmael, by Sarai's Egyptian handmaid, Hagar, but this great covenant was not to be made with Ishmael, but with Isaac. • Many claim the Ishmael was the father of the modern Arabs. Yet, there is evidence to suggest that he is instead the father of the Russians and Slavic Peoples
  • 17. Genesis 17:19-21 • “And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and thou shalt call his name Isaac; and I will establish my covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him. And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. But my covenant will I establish with Isaac, which Sarah shall bear unto thee at this set time in the next year.”
  • 18. Rebekah • Isaac, the son of Promise, was born according to God's Word. Isaac later married Rebekah, and she was given a blessing in Genesis 24:60: • And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, “Thou. art our sister, be thou the mother of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them."
  • 19. The dust of the earth: • "And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered" [Gen. 13: 16]. • "And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and thou shall spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south: and in thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth be blessed" [Gen. 28: 14].
  • 20. Jacob and Esau • Isaac and Rebekah were born twin sons, Esau and Jacob. Esau, although the elder, sold his birthright to Jacob, who then became the rightful inheritor of these covenants. God appeared to Jacob to confirm these covenants in Genesis 28:14, 35:10-11
  • 21. The stars of heaven: • "And he brought him forth abroad, and said. Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him. So shall thy seed be." [Gen- 15:5]
  • 22. The sand of the sea: • "That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the seashore: and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies" [Gen. 22:17]. • "And thou said, I will surely do thee good, and make thy seed as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude" [Gen. 32:12].
  • 23. Not anti-Jewish, just the truth • Well…DOES ANY OF THESE PROMISES SOUND LIKE IT IS TALKING ABOUT THE JEWS?. • BE HONEST…DOES IT?. • NO!!!!
  • 24. • While Jacob was yet alive, Joseph was sold into bondage in Egypt. A few years later the other 11 sons and their families moved to Egypt, where Joseph saved them from the famine. While still in Egypt, Jacob-Israel adopted the two sons of Joseph — Ephraim and Manasseh as his firstborn in place of Reuben and Simeon. This adoption as Israel's firstborn is verified in 1 Chronicles 5:l-2. In Gen. 48:16, Israel said: • . . . Let my name be named on them, and the name of my father Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.”
  • 25. Ephraim & Manasseh • In Gen. 48:19 Jacob prophesied that Ephraim would become greater than Manasseh and that his seed would become a fullness of nations.
  • 26. God had said to Abraham, "I will be a God to you and to your seed after you." That covenant was formalized with Abraham‘s seed in what we recognize as a marriage ceremony, with the bridegroom saying, "Will you obey?" and the bride answering, "I will." Israel became God's wife. That the wife-husband relationship is correct is verified in several passages, including Isaiah 54:5 —"For thy Maker is thine husband; the Lord of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called."
  • 27. While Israel was in the wilderness, learning the statutes and judgments, God gave further promise of future greatness. In Deuteronomy 33 He gave a separate blessing to each of the tribes, with the greater blessing recorded for Joseph in verses 13-17. Turn your Bibles to this passage This blessing can only mean that the descendants of Joseph were to have a land blessed with great agricultural harvests, wealth from the seas, and ores and minerals from the earth. The greatest portion of the Israel blessings would he fulfilled in the two sons of Joseph who had been made the inheritors of the Abrahamic covenants, as we read in Genesis 48.
  • 28.
  • 29. Joshua After 40 years in the wilderness, Moses died, and Joshua brought Israel into Canaan and established them there as a nation. They had been commanded to observe God's statutes and judgments and to destroy the Canaanites out of the land, so they would not be tempted to follow their gods and participate in their abominations. This Israel did not do, and as a consequence, they suffered a series of captivities during the 400 years up to the time of David, as recorded in the book of Judges.
  • 30. David David came to the throne in Israel in approximately 1050 B.C., and in 40 years of war enlarged and secured Israel as one nation in Canaan, ruling them from Zion and Jerusalem. At one point, according to 1 Chronicles 21, David had over one million, 500 thousand men under arms, which would indicate that God's promise of increasing the seed of Abraham was being fulfilled, with 10 to 15 million people living in Palestine at that time
  • 31. David cont’d When David died, his son Solomon ruled for another 40 years, establishing an era of peace and prosperity and building the great temple to Yehovah. The Israel kingdom was so blessed it became the marvel of that part of the world. It seemed as if God's promises and prophecies of great increase and material blessings were being fulfilled.
  • 32. Solomon But after Solomon's death came a terrible blow. The nation was divided. The 10 northern tribes established their capital in Samaria. Jerusalem now ruled only the southern half of Israel. The rivalry between the two kingdoms, Judah and Israel, brought wars, corruption, and sin — even worship of Baal and the other gods of the wicked Canaanites who still lived among them. God sent prophets to them, warning them he would send alien nations against them, who would take them captive into other lands.
  • 33. God called Israel's sin adultery and told her through Jeremiah and Hosea that he was divorcing her: “And I saw, when for all the causes whereby back- sliding Israel committed adultery, I had put her away, and given her a bill of divorce.” ----- Jeremiah. 3:8 God said to the northern kingdom in verse 2 of the second chapter of Hosea: "Plead with your mother, plead; for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband." The northern house of Israel, therefore, was divorced and no longer the wife of Jehovah.
  • 34. First time the word “Jew” appears • Did you know the word “Jew” is NOT in the Torah?. It does not even appear until 2 Kings 16:6 when Israel and Judah were fighting • Few realize Israel and Judah are two SEPARATE nations. The Jews are of Judah…NOT Israel!!! • If the Jews are NOT Israel, then who is?. The Jews are JUDAH…NOT ISRAEL!!!
  • 35. Assyria • God sent Assyria to conquer the northern Israel kingdom. The wars and deportations are recorded in 2 Kings 16:17-18 • This was bad enough, but the Israelites in the Judah kingdom were also following the corrupted ways of the Edomites and Canaanites, so 7 years later we read 2 Kings 18:13
  • 36. Jeremiah 7:14 • So the two conquests of Assyria would have removed the vast majority of the Israelites into Assyria and out of the land of Palestine. The number removed would have been in the millions. The prophet Jeremiah continued to prophesy to the tiny remnant in Jerusalem; and in the seventh chapter of Jeremiah, he told these Judahites that because of their sin, God would abandon Jerusalem.
  • 37. Jeremiah 37:8-10 • Shiloh was the place of the Ark of the Covenant, which God had turned over into the hands of the Philistines, because of the sin of Israel. In Kings and Chronicles we have another 100 years of the history of the Judah kingdom, a history of continuance of sin, some revivals, but always turning away from the God of Israel. During that time, Assyria's power declined, and she lost control over much of her empire, and Babylon grew. The Judahites remaining at Jerusalem made a peace treaty with the king of Babylon, and they continued to sin against the God of Israel. They also tried to enlist the help of Egypt. God sent Jeremiah to tell Judah that Babylon would conquer them.
  • 38. Daniel 9:2 • And it came to pass. Jerusalem was destroyed in about 586 B.C. and the Judahites were taken into Babylon for the 70-year captivity prophesied by Jeremiah. • All seems lost. What has happened to the covenants? What has become of the great promises of God? 70 years later, Ezra did bring back from Babylon to Jerusalem a handful of Judahites to rebuild their city and the temple. • In Ezra 2 that number is given as less than 50,000. Ezra 2:64-65
  • 39. What happened to Israel? • But what happened to the other tens of millions of Israelites who never returned to Jerusalem? Are their descendants lost from the covenant promises of God? • We must now ask the same question Paul asked 500 years later in Romans 11: • ". . .Hath God cast away his people?“ Paul answered, "God forbid; for I also am an Israelite of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. God hath not cast away His people which He foreknew."
  • 40. Can we Identify them today? • Israelites who were driven out of Palestine 700 years before Christ, and where were they, if they existed at all, at the time Paul uttered his statement of confidence in God's keeping His promises to Israel? • Can we find out what happened to them, so that their descendants can be identified in the world today?

  • 42. Hosea 17:6 • "In the ninth year of Hoshea, the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.“ 2 Kings 17:6
  • 43. Scythians • We now also know what happened to the larger body of Gamira or Israelites, that did not escape the Assyrians. They formed an alliance with Esarhaddon, the king, when he came under attack of the Medes and the Persians. This treaty allowed the Israelites to establish colonies in Sacasene in the north and Bactria in the east. With absolutely no help from the Israelites, Assyria fell in 612 B.C. Soon the Israelites themselves came under attack by the Medes. Now those that had settled in Sacasene moved north through the Dariel Pass into the steppe regions of south Russia. There they became known by the Greek name, "Scythians."
  • 44. Massagetae • The Israelites that had settled in Bactria were forced north and east, and in the records of the Persians they were called Massagetae and Sakka. • It was the Massagetae queen Thomyris who killed Cyrus, the Persian king
  • 45. Caucasians • Archeology has solved two of the greatest archeological problems: First, what happened to the hundreds of thousands of Israelites who disappeared south of the Caucasus? and second, what was the origin of the Cimmerians and the mysterious nomadic tribes, known as Scythians, who suddenly appeared north of the Caucasus — both at the same time in history?. They were one and the same people. They were Israelites.
  • 47. Germans • Later, the Sarmatians, these were a mixed, non- Israelitish people of Iranian origin. They in turn drove the Scythians northwest to the shores of the Baltic Sea. At this time in history, we find the Romans introduced the name "Germans" in place of the name Scythians, in order not to confuse the Scythians with the Sarmatians, who now occupied Scythia. Germanus, being the Latin name for "genuine," indicates the Germans were the genuine Scythians
  • 48. Celts • During this time the Celts were expanding in all directions from central Europe. Some of the Celts invaded Italy and sacked Rome in 390 B.C. Another group moved back into Asia Minor, in 280 B.C., and the Greeks called them "Galatians," as they did another group of Celts that had settled in Gaul, or modern France. This also indicates that Paul's letters to the Galatians were written to his kinsmen Israelites, or at least descendants of the earlier Galatians.
  • 49. Iberia • Some of the Celts moved into Spain and became known as Iberes, the Gaelic name for "Hebrews." Others poured into Britain to form the bedrock of the British race. Later, the Iberes moved into Ireland as Scots, and later into Northern Britain to establish the nation of Scotland.
  • 50. Broken up Tribes • Your history books also record the Germanic tribes breaking up into many divisions — the Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Danes, and Vikings, to name just a few. Other Germanic tribes later poured into the lands vacated by the Celts and established the Gothic nations of the Vandals, Lombards, Franks, Burgundians, and others. • The so-called "lost tribes of Israel" really, were never lost. They only lost their identity as they migrated westward over the centuries from the land of their captivity.
  • 51. Ezekiel 34:6,11 • In the Old Testament God had promised to regather divorced Israel unto Himself: • “My sheep wandered through all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flock was scattered upon all the face of the earth, and none did search or seek after them. For thus saith the Lord God; Behold I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out.”
  • 52. Israel’s Return to God • Jesus made it plain He was the instrument • of Israel's return to God: • “For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” • ----- Luke 19:10 • “But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” • -----Matthew 15:24
  • 53. Lost Sheep of the House of Israel • The Greek word ‘lost’ means "put away and punished." • So Jesus was saying in Matthew 15:24, "I am not sent but unto the put away and punished house of Israel."
  • 54. Luke 1:72-73 • In Luke 1, Zacharias the priest, who was John the Baptist's father, said that Jesus came to redeem His people and • ". . . To perform the mercy promised to our [Israel] fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; The oath which he sware to our father Abraham."
  • 55. Galatians • Paul, an Israelite, wrote to Israelites in the dispersion in Galatia: • “When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law. . . .” • -----Galatians 4:4-5
  • 56. Only Israel under the Law • Only the Israelites had been under the law. Romans 15:8 says: • “. . . . . Jesus Christ was a minister for the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made unto the fathers.”
  • 57. Ponder what Jesus said • "I am the good shepherd, the good shepherd giveth his life for his sheep" (John 10:11); "The Son of Man is come to save that which was lost" (Matt. 18: 11). • He commissioned His disciples, "As the Father hath sent Me even so send I you." A study of the Epistles will soon prove that they have found Israel where they had been scattered throughout Western Europe and part of Asia, and in the Isles of the Sea, north and west of Palestine.
  • 58. Isaiah • Yes, "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).
  • 59. Christ’s death on the cross… • Redeemed Israel and brought them back from Divorce. • He reconciled them back to God. • This is the Mystery Paul speaks of in Romans 11
  • 60.
  • 61. About 390 B.C. some of the Cimmerian Israelites invaded Italy and sacked Rome. About 280 B.C. others invaded Greece and as they migrated back into Asia Minor, they were called "Galatians" by the Greeks. However, most of them spread west and north across France and began to cross the English Channel into the British Isles.
  • 62. These early Hebrew-Phoenicians were referred to as "Tarshish" by ancient records as well as Bible Scripture. Isaiah wrote "Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from afar." (Isaiah 60: 9) and again "I will send those that escape of them unto the nations, to Tarshish, Pul. and Lud. (Lud was an old name for London) that draw the bow, to Tubal, and Javan, to the isles afar off." (Isaiah 66: 19) Ezekiel also wrote of the "merchants of Tarshish" (Ezekiel 38: 13).

  • 64. Promises Fulfilled • These promises, as we have seen, were of great national development, a great increase in numbers, blessings of the earth and of the sea, that God would be their God, and they would be His people. After the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, His disciples carried the good news to dispersed Israel in Europe, beginning what we know as the Christian era. For 1500 more years Israel remained in Europe, continuing to grow in numbers as God had promised their Fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
  • 65. Promises • These promises, as we have seen, were of great national development, a great increase in numbers, blessings of the earth and of the sea, that God would be their God, and they would be His people. After the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, His disciples carried the good news to dispersed Israel in Europe, beginning what we know as the Christian era. • For 1500 more years Israel remained in Europe, continuing to grow in numbers as God had promised their Fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
  • 66. Blessings and a New Land • A new continent to the west, a New World, was discovered by Columbus and other explorers. Persecution of Christians in Europe began a migration to the New World, that began as a trickle and later became a flood. 2,500 years before that, while Israel was still in Palestine,
  • 67. 2 Samuel 7:10 • “Moreover I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own, and move no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more, as before time.”
  • 68. Isaiah 11:12 • The prophet Isaiah and others who had written of Israel's regathering made it plain Israel would be regathered into a new land as Christian believers. • “And he shall set up an ensign[Messiah] for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.”
  • 69. Messiah • Verses one through ten identify that Ensign as Jesus Christ, and verse 14 indicates their regathering would be toward the west. • "But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west".
  • 70. Other • Psalm 72 and Zechariah 9 describe that land of Israel's regathering as a land between two seas, and one that would run to the ends of the earth.
  • 71. Hosea • In Hosea 2:14, God had prophesied to cast-off Israel, • "Behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her."
  • 72. Our forefathers knew it, but we don’t • Our pilgrim fathers, who were Christian Israelites from Europe and knew God's promises, called this North American continent "The Wilderness" and "New Canaanland." They said they had come hither to establish the Kingdom of God. • Read Cotton Mather’s sermons
  • 73. Jeremiah 3:14-15 • “Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.”
  • 74. 2520 years Birthright withheld • America is that new land, New Israel. America is the nation born in a day on July 4, 1776, exactly the prophesied 2520 years after Israel had gone into the Assyrian captivity. • “A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the Lord will hasten it in his time.” Isaiah 60:22
  • 75. Beulah Land • It is here that is fulfilled the promise to Joseph, "blessed of the Lord be his land • . . ." Deuteronomy 33:13. It is in America that the wilderness and the solitary place was glad for them, and the desert has rejoiced and blossomed as the rose Isaiah 35:1. It is in the North American wilderness that waters have broken out, and streams in the desert Isaiah 35:6. • America is Hepzibah and Beulah land Isaiah 62:4; America truly is God's Country. But now she has turned into a Moloch-worshipping harlot.
  • 76. Israel’s Destiny • Between 1620 and 1870 over 45 million Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Germanic, and other Israelites emigrated to America. God gave them Christian Pastors. God keeps His promises to Israel.
  • 77. Red, White, and Blue • Our flag is made up from the colors of scarlet, blue and white, the colors of Israel of old. These colors covered the table of shew bread within the Tabernacle. Red is the color of blood and signified justice or judgment, reminding us of the shed blood of Christ for the redemption of His people Israel; White, signifying purity or holiness, the color of snow; (Psalm 50: 7; Isaiah 1: 18). Blue the color of the sky signifying love and because this is the color of the heavens it is representative of God.
  • 78. Blue missing • When we look at the Great Whore that sits on many waters in Revelation 18, we see she is adorned in scarlet, purple, but blue is conspicuously missing. In Exodus, blue is mentioned with scarlet and purple many times.
